There is one class of laborers who
never strike and seldom complain.
They get up at o'clock in the morn
ing and never get back to bed until
10 or IL o'clock at night; they work
without ceasing the whole of that
time, and receive no other emolument
than food and the plainest clothing;
they understand something of every
branch of economy and labor, from
finance to cooking; though harassed

by thousand responsibilities, though
driven and worried, though reproach-
ed and looked down upon, they never
revolt, aud they cannot organize for
their own protection. Not even sick
ness releases them from their posts.
No sacrifice is deemed too great for
them to make, and no incompetency
in any branch of their work is ex
cused. No essays or books or poems
are written in tribute to their stead
fastness. They die in the harness
and are supplanted as quickly as may
be. These are the housekeeping
wives of the laboring men. They are
heroines.

HE EVIDENTLY "FILLs THE BILL"

Some Smart-alecks have been en-
deavoring to injure Colonel Ballantine
by stating that, if elected to the Coun-
Gil, he will favor the division of the
county. Unfortunately for them,
Colonel Ballantlne halls from Null
doon-a town that does not aspire to
the dignity of county seat, and that
could not possibly be otherwise than
greatly injured by a division of the
county. However that may be, he
settles the matter himself by publish
ing a card over his own signature
elsewhere in the TINES.
Inasmuch as thissis the only obiec-
ton that has been made to Colonel
Ballantine, it is evident that he "fi!lc
the bill" and should lie elected.

A CANDID CONFESSION.
A GOOD MAN FOR THE PLACE.

Lewis Lavake, the Republican nom-
inee for County Commissioner for the
Second District, which comprises Hal
ley, Bullion, Gilman, the Gold Belt,
Willow Creek, Corral, Crichton, Sol
der, Deer Creek, Indian Creek, Null
doom, and the intervening country,
came to Haley yesterday, to attend
the meeting of the Republican
County Central Committee and to see
what there was in the talk Of his with
drawal from the ticket. When sifted
this talk hattened out to nothing; no
one in particular wanted him to with
draw. True, few persons suggested
that Haley should have a resident
Commissioner; but even they could
offer no particular reason for this, and
as HALEY is already amply provided
for on both tickets, they agreed that
there was no chick" coming to us in
this matter.
Mr.. Lavake therefore remains on
the ticket with the full consent and
entire goodwill of every member of
the County Central Committee, and
he will continue to make the fight
that he started to make, but in better
shape than before, since his own party
friends, at least, will stand by him.
This being so, he will doubtless be
elected, as he is d strong, an able man
one who grows upon people, and
who becomes better liked the better
he is known.
Mr.. Lavake was born in Washing
ton county, New York, and in early
manhood enlisted in the First Yer
mont Cavalry, as private. He served
under Fitzpatrick, and followed that
dare devil in his raids to the very
heart of the Southern Coufederaoy.
During the memorable raid on Rich
mond, in the spring of 1864, he was
severely wounded, his horse being
killed under him, and he was cap
tured and sent to Libby prison, where
he contracted the slight deafness
which causes people who do not know
him to greatly underrate him.
Honorably discharged at the close
of the war Mr.. Lavake came West
and engaged in the cattle business in
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Da-
kota, and succeeded in securing a
competency, which he afterward lost
at Leadville, Colorado, where he
owned in the MayaSwer and other
mines. In 1880 he came to Idaho,
and has been a taxpayer of Alturas
county ever since. AT present he is a
wellto do rancher in Corral precinct,
on Camas Prairie, where he lives with
his family, and enjoys the esteem of
all his neighbors.
Mr.. Lavake did rot seek the nomi-
nation until he had been importuned
!. to accept it. But having accepted it,
be wishes to be elected in order to re-
duce county expenses and relieve the
overburdened taxpayers. Being a
man of spotless integrity, aid great
strength of character, he will, if
elected, do his utmost to make a rec
ord for himself that will be acceptable
to all.

The County Newspaper.
Erie County Reporter.

Erie county Reporter.
The mistake many people make is in
demanding their county paper for the
low price charged for city weekly pa
pers. 1t should be understood that as
the circulation of q newspaper increas-
es the price may be lessened. IL a
Cleveland weekly publishes as many
thousands of copies as an Erie county
paper publishes hundreds, it is impos-
sible that the latter should be as cheap.
But the two papers belong to two class
es. The people OF Erie county, few In
number, need o newspaper printed near
their homes to furnish them every
week certain information which cannot
be given by the outside press. The
Cleveland paper gives more general
class of Information suited equally well
to every county in the State, and TO
some other States. Neither paper can
fill the place of the other. A man can
not buy as large bulk of tea for a dol
lar as of wheat. It would be as reason
able for him to demand this as to ask
his country publisher to give him as
many columns of print for dollar as
a city publisher does. The Ohio news
papers on the average, are not excelled
by the country press of any other State,
but the editors are doing too much for
the money they get. Their papers
ought to be smaller or their prices high
er, and arguments such as are given
here ought to be instilled into the pub
lie mind until editing local newspapers
is more profitable.

LIFE FOR LIFE.
The Ultimatum of China to the United
States.
The Result OF outrages on Inoffen.
siSe Citizens.
A Refusal Means the Expulsion Of
Americans from China and q
Probable Declaration
Of War.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The Critic
to-day publishes an explanation of the
circumstances which led to the promul-
cation of the Presidents Chinese mes
sage. The investigations of Col. Bee
Consul General of China at San Fran
cisco, into the Rock Springs massacre
convinced that officer that 1t was a
cruel outrage, perpetrated by white
men, whom he supposed to be Ameri-
cans. He SO reported to his home gov
ernment. The instructions the Chi
nese Minister received from his gov
ernment was startling. He was direct
ed to demand from the United States
the total disavowal of the affair; the
condign npunishment-capitally-ifkil-
ling could be proven against individu-
ais, and pecuniary indemnity to the
sufferers for their losses, to be paid by
the United States. This was the ulti-
matula.
I If the United States refused to COM
ply with the demands, the President
was to be informed that the Chinese
Government would Immediately pro-
ceed to collect the indemnity from
American citizens in business in the
Imperial Territory, and withdraw its
protection from them, which meant
that they would be notified to leave
China at once. simultaneously infOr-
nation came to the State Department
that the Marquis Tseng, Chinese Am
bassador to the Courts of st. James and
st. Cloud, was about to return home to
take high position in the Imperial
Council of State, and that he would in
sist upon stern measures being taken
against the United States to mark its
displeasure at the outrages which the
American authorities permitted its citi-
zens to commit against his people with
out any attempt being made to prevent
them or punish those who openly avow-
ed their participation in them. This
was the situation when the President
sent the message to Congress on Tues
day last. He denies the right of the
Chinese government to demand an in
demnity for property destroyed.
This is point upon which the in
structions at the Imperial Council to
the Minister here admit of no conces-
siOns. 1t has been known for month
past that the Chinese Minister here is
to return home very soon. 1t is learn
ed that he will take with him the final
conclusions of the President in regard
to this matter.

A kind of concrete. hard and so,id IL

A kind of concrete. hard and solid, is
now being used for building purposes
in Paris. It is composed of eight parts
of sand, gravel and pebbles; one part of
common earth burnt and powdered; one
part of powdered cinders and one and q
half parts unslacked hydraulic lime.
These materials are thoroughly beaten
up together, their mixture giving con-
crete which sets almost Immediately
and becomes in a few days extremely
hard and solid, which property may be
till further increased by the additions
of a small quantity, say one part, Of ce-
ment. Among other constructions to
which this material has been applied is
house three stories in height, 62x45
feet, standing on a terrace, having a
perpendicular retaining wall 200 feet in
length and 20 feet high. Every part of
this structure was made of the hard con-
crete, including foundations, vaults of
cellars, retaining wall, and all walls, ex.
terror and interior, % we'll as the cor

.balustrades, parapets, and the building
is without band-irol, lintels, or wood

We have certain farmer who lives
near Leipsic, that is just now realizing
the fact that he had better taken the ad-
vice of his county papers. During
last fall one of the Bohemian agents
approached him with one of the county
papers in his hands, in which full expo
siti0n of the Bohemian Oats fraud was
given. After the agent read the articles,
he swore that those editors were not
farmers and were not able to tell the
difference between barley and Bohemian
Oats. The farmer said this must be
true. The agent then sold him $500
worth of oats, and he gave the agent his
note for the same, thinking that he
would make o fortune Immediately;
but 10, and behold, he now sees where
he stands. Such schooling costs lots Of
money, but teaches man to be honest
in his dealings. We believe that this
farmer has stopped all his county pa
pers on account of hard times. Agents,
hunt him up, he will bite at all the
new tricks, as he is not posted and will
make good sucker. - Exchange.
