True Assertion.

There was one true statement made by
Jaw Gould before the senate labor inves-
tigating committee. 1t was to the effect
that an industrious, temperate man at
work at any trade would be certain to
succeed. As a general rule this is 80.
There are cases where men with large
families, have hard work. to make both
ends meet, no matter how hard they
work or sober they keep, because of low
wages and the high prices of the neces-
sites of life. There are many who do
not make much more than 81 day and
with wife to take care of and children to
clothe and feed it, is a wonder they get
along as well as they do. The success OF
such persons is strange, even if they sue
ceed by the closest kind of economy in
keeping the wolf from the door. But it
is especially true that temperance and
industry will command success, Let any
Young man start out in life with a deter.
mination to save his money-and by
saving it we do not mean that he shall
be mean and miserably in his economy
and not drink, smoke or indulge in
billiards, ETC., and if he adheres to this
rule for years or for life he is certain to
become rich man and clear-headed,
strong hearted, pure minded one too. On
the other hand the workingmen who
drinks and neglects his work will in time
20 to the dogs, and his family to the
poorhouse. We could pick out two young
men of equal mental ability Give one
$4,000 and let him do as he likes
smoke, drink and 60 with fast friends
The other, we might say, has not cent,
but is determined to keep straight, at
tend to business and lead an upright life
He adheres to this plan of action. In
twenty years, or less time, the rich yotIhl
man will not have red cent left, and {
in the gutter. The poor boy who1kept .
clear head, will be rich, influential ane
respected. loung man, be steady and
saving! It pays big profit in time. W.
wish everybody who reads the CHRONICLE
would 30 resolve and our word for it vot
will score big success in life.

A Sermon From . Tragedy.

Referring to the recent death Of the
intrepid Webb in the Niagara whirlpool
New York clergyman said: He saw
the waves, he heard their sullen roar.
He needed not the warning voice ofthose
who had long studied the fatal confidence
in self and mockery Of danger he took
the fatal leap. The rapids hurled him to
the whirlpool then the eager waves en-
quilted him. Down, down they drew him
beneath their foalning crests, until the
sunlight paled and the green watesgrew
black as night, far down where their roar
was hushed and all was silent mystery.
Then in the secret chambers Of the,
depths they smote him until he died.
Then up from the gloom they hurled
him, broken and bleeding, the victim Of
the danger he Knocked. Tell me, did not
this brave athlete die as the fool dieth?
We shudder as we think of this death
scene. But let me tell you there arc
multitudes who are tempting dangers as
great as that in which this swimmer lost
his life. Let us look down upon the
swimmers in the whirlpool of life. in
Temperance may be hackaeyed subject
perhaps, but yet when we utter the word
vast wildness of billows can Ike seen.
The victims of this evil have been tossed
upon the shore, mangled and bleeding,
but we still find another sweeping on to
battle with the conq,ering tide. A habit
formed is as powerful as she whirlpool
current. Nothing can break it's inpetu-
osity. 1t rushes onward, and may con-
tlnue still to rush forever. Every day
we read in the papers about clerks steal
ing sums of money and about the false
entries made in the cash hoods. The
tide has got hold of these men. and it
may never release it's grip On them. The
first steps taken in vice are usually the
most fatal, and not day .passes but We
hear the cries of remorse from the vic
tins of the pool. The only avenue Of
escape from the whirlpools of wickedness
that beset us on every side is the need Of
truer manhood and womanhood.

CHAPTER XVII.


TheNez Perces were the best type Of In
dians to be found in the west; nearly all
could read and write and many of them
had farms and stock in valleys in Idaho,
which had been secured to them by
treaty in 1856. In 1868 another treaty
was made, which received the approba-
ton of less then one-half of the tribe and
which excluded from their reservation
the Lapwai and Wallowa valleys. 4 large
and influential part of these Indians
would not give up their rights in these
valleys; more particularly in the Wal
Iowa and for several years there was
latent antagonism between them and the
white settlers, which came to an open
rupture in 1873; at which time dispute
occurred about some stock, which was
concluded by the white man killing the
Indian. The Nez Perces frnaed, as did
the settlers, and but tor the intervention
Of a military force there would have been
general fight Commissioners were
sent from Washington to settle the ques-
ton of the ownership of the valley.
They decided against the Nez Perces.
This decision was approved at Washing
ton and in the spring of 1877 the Nez
Perces were driven from their old home.
To those who could read the signs Of the
times, it was evident that trouble was
brewing, but no actually hostile act was
committed by the Indians till the 18th

white man on Salmon river, named
Richard Divine. On the l4th several
