How TO STOP A PAPER

The following, from one of our ex
changes, SO fully and clearly expresse,
our views on the ubject that we copy II
without comment: "You have an un
doubted right to stop newspaper when
you feel disposed, upon the payment of
all arrearages. Do not hesitate to do SC
ON account of tenderness for the editor
Don't you suppose he would stop buying
sugar Of you, or meat, clothing, dry goods
etc, if he thought he was not getting his
moneys worth, and why should you no,
exercise the same privilege with him?
And when you discontinue paper do SC
manfully. Don't be so spitefal as to throw
it back to the postmaster with a contempt
uous Il don't want it any longerv and
have refused written on the margin, and
have the paper returned to the editor.
No gentleman ever stopped his paper in
that way, no matter if his head is covered
with gray hairs that should be honorable
1t you do not longer wish to receive n
newspaper, write a note to the editor ike
man, saying so-and be sure that arear-
ages are paid. This is the way to stop a
newspaper. Ell.

BROOKLYN BRIDGE DISASTER.
THE "TIMEs' ACCOUNT.

The Times which gives the best ac-
count of the disaster, says that one wom-
ans misstep and another woman's fright
ened screams caused the panic. There
are thirteen steps broken into two flights
by landing seven feet wide. The flight
has six steps, each seven inches high and
eight wide in the clear. The upper
flight has seven steps of the same width
and height. The top of the iron steps
on each side of the stairway forms hand
rail. The steps are too narrow when the
width Of the pathway is considered. As
nearly as could be ascertained, from excl
ted persons who were in the throng or
saw it, a middle aged woman coming
down the steps towards New York, lost
her footing and fell Bridge policeman,
Frederick Richards, saw the woman fall
and sprang to her assistance. She fell
on her knees on the center landing of
the stairway, just as Richards reached
her. The officer caught hold of her arm
and pulled her down the remainder of
the stairs and to one side. At the same
moment a woman at the head Of the
stairway, seeing Richards dragging some
one through the crowd began to
scream at the top of her voice. Then
those behind made rush to see what
the trouble was. Those on the stairway
could not hold back the throng, and in
an instant three or four persons were car
ried off their feet and fell, Those on
the promenade above the stairway, know.
ing nothing of the fearful crush on the
steps, surged ahead with an irresistible
force, and in moment the whole stair
way was packed with dead and DYING
men, women and children, piled one up
on another, in writhing struggling mass

THE CASCADE BRANCH.

There is no possible doubt now but
that work on the Cascade branch of the
Northern Pacific Railroad will be pushed
to completion with the utmost vigor. A
great many anti-railroad men have ex.
pressed themselves to the effect 'that if
ever the Northern Pacific built road int
the Yakima country it would be only to
the mountains, as the company only want
ed that land which was valuable" CAPT
Kinssbury, Chief Engineer and Super
iatendent Of the Cascade division, receiv.
ed the following instructions from New
York on Saturday last: "Begin work on
three different points near Yakima City
and push westward as rapidly as possibl,
across the mountains till a connection i.
made with the standard guage road from
Seattle to Green river" Captain Kings
bury now has 100 men at Yakima Cit,
and tools for twice as many, and as fas
as men and teams can be produced tn,
force will be increased. On Saturda,
evening 200 men arrived at Wallula june
ton to 60 to work on the Cascade divis
ion Of the Northern Pacific. They vii
begin work at Twin Wells, thirty mile
east Of Ainsworth this morning. Thi
force will be swcllcd to 500 men by Tues
day. The company have posters out i,
Portland calling for 1000 men to worl

THE WAR Is OVER.

On last Monday the last battle was
fought in the relocation war, which has
been raging for several months in Nez
Perez county. As is usual in our con-
test, great deal of sectional strife and
enmity has been stirred up, which will
continue to boil for some time to come.
1t is to be regretted that such issues
could not have been postponed to some
future time when something besides sell
ilsh interests could have been appealed to.
Prospective county lines have been
drawn, future county seats suggested, I'm
til the whole Palouse country have CON-
menced throwing up breastworks, when
he should be engaged in the more profit
able business of developing the resources
OF the country, until such time as we
could act intclligently. Our country is
too new, the settlements being unequally
distributed 80 that is folly to make pre-
dictions at this time as to where county
lines or county seats should be in the fu-
ture. We sincerely hope that such idle talk
will cease, and that some of our citizens
adopt higher occupation than that of
planning how to destroy some other town
that 1t may give more certainty to the
of their own. To build on
the gums of another ought to be beneath
the dignity Of any man.-Boomerono.

WHAT He HAS TO SAY.

New York, June l.-[Spocial1.-
Sidney Dillon said that he had been re
freshed by his trip, although it had beer
made simply on account Of business O
the company. "The only dark spot OF
the horizon is right down there in Wal
street. In regard to the threatened re.
fasal Of trunk lines to pro rate on Cal
iforna business, Dillon said that he had
telegraphed to Commissioner Fink 70

have not had time to-day, Of course, to
see Fink about the matter" he added,
"but shall confer with him in few DAYS
do not know what eject the order
would have on our traffic if it should be
carried into effect, but l think not very
much. | hope however that the trunk
lines will not take this action. Our
earnings compare favorably with those of
Las last year, but the explanation is easy.
The falling of is in gross receipts, while
the net earnings are larger Under the
pooling arrangement with the Southern
Pacific, that route is to receive 40 per
cent. and our lines 60 per cent. of
through business. Last year the South
'rn route hardly did rs per cent. We
'arried the freight, but the other lines
got their share Of the money. This year
he Southern line is approaching its per-
'entage, and our gross earnings are con-
falling of, but our net earnings
ire really larger than they were last year"

FARM LIFE.

II is a common complaint that
the farm and farm life are not APP
prcciatcd by our people. We long
for the more elegant pursuits, or
the ways and fashions Of the town.
But the farmer has the most sane
aud natural occupation, and ought
to find life sweetcr, il less highly
seasoned, than any other. He
alone, strictly speaking, has a
home. How can a man take root
and thrive without land7 lie
writes his history upon his field.
How many ties, how many re-
sources he has; his friendships
with his cattle, his team, his dog,
his trees, the satisfaction in his
growing crops, in his improved
fields his intimacy with nature,
with bird and beast, and with the
%quickening elemental forces his
cooperation with the clouds, the
sun, the seasons, heat, wind, rain
and frost. Nothing will take the
various social distempers which
the city and artificial life breed
out Of I man like farming, like
direct and loving contact with the
soil. II draws out the poison. II
humbles him, teaches him pa
thence and reverence, and restores
the proper tone TO his system.
Cling 10 the farm, make much Of 1t,
put yourself into IL, bcstow your
heart and your brain upon Il, 50
that II shall SAVIOR Of you and
radiate your virtue after your
days work Is done.

NATIONAL AID TO SCHOOLS.

Senator Logan has set 10 work
10 manufacture public opinion in
favor Of Government interference
with education. His article on
"Nntional Aid TO Public Schools"
in the North American Review for
April, is prepostcrous as an argu.
ment and deserves notice only as
an indication Of the corruption
that has gone through and through
the Republican party. For Sena-
tor Logan is not u man of original
mind. He thinks, 50 far as he can
be said 10 think at all, the thoughts
Of Republicans who consider them
selves sent from heaven 10 do
whatever is right in their own
eyes because thoy are the children
Of light. There were no Ameri
cans, these men say, before they
were born, and every scheme that
gets into n true Republican head
has something almost divine in it.
Senator Logan is n most useful
man 10 the Republican leaders
because his vanity makes him en-
ergetic and his intellectual %sterili-
ty secures his obedience. The
Treasury surplus must be made to
help the grand old party, and
among all the tricks invented TO
mislead and bewilder the public
mind not one is quite equal to this
cry for Government help to educate
the people. Education is a word
80 hard to define that no one stops
to ask what IL means. IL means
something very good, and there is
money idle in the Treasury and
this belongs to the people and il
ought TO be used for their benefit.
Beyond this reasoning few care 10
90, and the thinkers of the party
behind Senator Logan rely on the
fact that they are dealing with u
nation which they have swindled
for twenty years in the name Of
moral ideas.
