Child Run Over.

About 3 O'Clock Thursday afternoon,
as the Dayton freight train rounded the
curve just beyond Berryman station, it
struck two children Of j. f. Berryman's.
The younger boy Is months old, had
his right hand and left foot taken off.
while the elder boy. three years old, was
struck by the COW catcher thrown up on
it, and escaped uahurt, save a few Sigh,
bruises. Fortunately the train was run.
ing at slow speed, and the engineer sue
cceded in stopping his train within
seventy-fve feet after striking the
children. The engineer Of the train
says he did not see the children until
within one hundred feet OF them, there
being strong wind blowing, which
raised a great deal of dust. Drs. n. G..
and Y. c. BIalock were sent to the
scene on a special engine and brought,
the injured child to St. Marys hospital,
where amputation of the injured mem.
bers were performed that uisht. The
children had followed their father ~ the
railroad track, and as the train was ap.
preaching them, their mother discovered
their peril, screamed to them and started
to run towards them, but tainted and fell.
The children heard her scream aud had
turned to run toward her. apparently not
noticing the approaching train. When
the mother revived, the eugiuc had stop.
ded and the children cxtricated The
accident is very sad one. |, is not con
sidered probable that the injured child
will recover, as the shock was severe

1t is reported that the statement is
being circulated among republican sen.
ators, at Washington city, that the pro-
posed annexation o! North idaho to
Washington Territory is a democratic
measure. That's big mistake. It's a
peoples measure, and politics have as
little to do with it as rel i n or the
tariff question -J1urnol.
We are awarc that ccr.af PARTIES in
Idaho have tried to urge that annexation
is republican measure, ana others,
wherever it suits them best, have tried
to make it out that it is democratic
measure. But that is not SO, as the
Journal says. It is, and always has
been, peoples measure. IF it had been
democratic measure Cleveland would
not have pocket vetoed the bill, after it
had passed both houses Of congress. If
it had been republican measure Dubois
would not have fought it SO hard since
he has been delegate in congress. If
it had been democratic measure Gov.
Stevenson would not have troubled his
head by opposing it so strongly.

News has come which warrants the
assumption that between 1900 aud
1000 strangers will visit Walla Walla
during the coming fair, and some fears
are entertained that their accommodations
will be a serious matter. Word has
been sent over that at lcas, 500 will
visit the fair from Seattle aud probably
like number from Tacoma aud other
Sound points, while the Yakima country
and Spokane Falls will send numerous
contingent. The Northern Pacific ex.
cursion from St. Paul will also be here
during the week, and from present
indications it is safe to say that this fair
will be the most successful ever held
h're.-Union.

Mr.. James Mccormick has Just
returned from an extended tour through
the Bitter Root mountains to the
Missoula in the Bitter Boot valley. He
travelled on the cid Lo Lo trail to near
the summit Of the Bald mountain.
Then he left the trail and travelled a
part of the time on the south side Of the
Loksa fork of the Clearwater and in and
through the mountains as far as the
Selwai fork, and up to the summit of the
range. He was on the creek known as
Loyal creek, and within about twelve
miles Of the Beall pass, but did not 20
TO the pass owing to lameness. He was
not hunting passes, although he saw
several low depressious in the summit of
the range, which apparently were of easy
approach from the west, but he did not
investigate to see what the approaches
were from the cast. Until he came near
the summit he did not find strong
indications of mineral bearing quartz,
but near the summit and beyond, the
character Of the country rock was favor
able fer mineral bearing quartz, he
prospected two or three veins which
promised well. But he was not prepared
to open upon them to sufficient depth to
determine what they we're or might
prove to be at a greater depth. He
visited Gov. Hauser's mine on the
eastern slope, where a million dollars
have been expended in development,
and that to advantage. He visited the
celebrated Black, or Rhodes lead, where
he met Beeson and Crane aud one other.
He learned that they had sunk short
distance on their lead, and either had, or
were about to run tunnel. Bceson
accompanied Mccormick to Missoula for
supplies. Mccormick was much Oh.
structed in his travels in the mountains
by fires and in some instances had TO
take back track in order to avoid the
burning timber. On the whole he found
his route difficult to travel and full Of
hardship. He encountered several days
rain which detained him in camp.

The Norfolk Tronhlns.

without intending TO interfere In contest
as to whose merits we were not fully In
formed, we said yesterday that either We did
not understand the condition OF things 10
Norfolk, or there ought to be anew primary
election held there. The landmark OF yes
terday brings us the gratifying intelligence
that the Executive Committee OF the Demo
cratic party Of Norfolk have proposed to lay
the matter before the state Executive Com
mittee with all the proof that may be ad-
duced, under an agreement TO abide by It's
decision.
We trust that the other side will agree TO
this fair proposition. The State Executive
Committee IS composed Of gentlemen whom
nobody would be afraid to enlist In this good
work. The members will see 10 1t that the
right shall triumph; and they are at present
in a frame Of mind which will enable them
to come to the right conclusion.

ny AnGlo-Amorican cable 70 the Dispatch.l

ByAnglo- American cable 70 the Dispatch.l
LONDON, MAY lin the House OF Lords
TODAY Niscount Harding asked what truth
there was in the reports that England was
in deienceess condition; thai she had the
worst guns in the world; and that her ports
and ships were unarmed.
The Duke Of Cambridge, commander Of
the forces. denied that the country was In
imminent danger. lie said that sensational
articles in newspapers emanating from the
highest military authority" did not proceed
from him. The Government were fully
alive to the importance OF reforming and
strengthening the defensive forces, and were
considering means by which this should be
done. He did not doubt that the result
would satisfy the country.
Lord Salisbury protested against the pre-
vailing impression that because the Govern
ment did not make snowy speeches their
vigilance slept. The Government must prac-
tee The utmost roticcnce in such matters.
Nothing would be more insane than 10 ex-
plain 10 all the world what was highlands

she was taking. II would be trcachery 20
Give such matters publicity. [Cheers
The fact was there had BEEN con-
siderable Increase Of preparations with
ground for reproaching the Government
with ncclec;ng the cOuniry's deiences.
Since 1881 both the army and the navy had
been much strengthened. The army bad
been increased from ,2l7 men OF all arms
10 2l2.A70 men, while the expenditures for
the navy had risen from .c4,419,000 TO
CECIL 900. lie complained that high mill
t,rv authorities were making statements
against the Government al public banquets,
where they could not be answered. Gene
raj Lord Wolseley, he said, had recently de.
chrcd that the reason that the army and
navy weave not as strong ~ they ought to
be was to be found in tho system
OF the Government by party, which was the
curse OF England, depnyng English states
men OF manly honesty. General W0lseley
ought 10 have made that statement in Parlia-
ment, where he could have been answered.
The panicky tone pervading the language
used 10y the military authorities outside OF
the House was not shared by tue Govern
ment, who were fully conscious that any DIS
regard Of The national defence ~ the present
state OF the world would be very grave d.

FIFTIETH CONGRESS.
WASHINGTON, May II, 1883.
HeuAfe.
The Senate was not in session to-day.
House OF Representative.

House OF hepresentatiFess
A resolution was adopted fixing the hour
for the daily meeting OF the House at II A.
Nj. and the hour OF adjournment at L. NJ.
The House then went into Committee OF the
Whole (Mr. Springer, OF Illinois, in the
chair on the tariff bill, and was addressed
by Mr.. Scott, OF Pennsylvania.
MIR Scott spoke for more than two hours
and was loudly applauded as he concluded.
During the delivery OF bis speech Speaker
Carlisle, Posimaster.GeneTal Dickinson,
and Assistant PoslmasterG General Stevenson
were attentive listeners, while Mrs. Cleye.
land was in the gallery for q short time.
MIR. Gear, OF Iowa, said the Mills bill
would destroy American labor, and stated
that the most prominent Democrat in his
district had told him that no Iowa repre-
sentative who voted for the measure could be
rec ected to Congress.
MIR. Dibblc, OF South Carolina, trusted
that when the bill was considered by sections
it would be considered, not IN partisan
shirt, not for the sake Of manufacturing
campaign documents. hut In that broad spirit
OF craftsmanship which befitted representa-
tiyes OF the American people assembled to
discuss and decide grave issues affecting the
prosperity Of the country from oneend 10 the
other. Under the Constitution, he argued.
there was ample room for incidental prOtec.
ton under the provisions OF a strictly reve-
nue. bill. Neither the President In his mes
sage, nor the WAYS and Means Committee IN
in its report, proposed TO strike \ blow at
American manufactures. The Democratic
party In the House did not propose 10 pass a
free-trade measure. Whatever the members
individual views might be, whatever abb
stract theories might exist upon the subject
OF free trade or protection, the pending
measure was one upon which all
might unite, as IL reduced the burden
Of taxation without bringing shock or
disaster TO the industries OF the country.
He criticised the Republicans for the propo-
Sition that the only tariff duties which
should be reduced were those on articles
which could be produced in the south, and
for desiring that everything should be pro-
tcted except rice OF the Carolinas aud the
sugar OF Louisiana. lie thought that this
was a strange commentary upon tho pro.
fessed friendship OF the Republican party for
the negro laborer OF the south.
Mr.. HOugeR, Of Wisconsin, opposed the
bill, and criticised tue President for having
been In part responsible for the surplus,
which he so much condemned, by his failure
TO approve The river and harbOr bill by his
veto OF the dependent pension bill, aud by
his neglect to exercise the authority invested
In him by law TO purchase United States
bonds.
The committee then rose, and the House,
at o O'Clock, took q recess until O'Clock, the
evening session TO be for the consideration
OF private pension bills.
The House at the evening session passed
ihirty.seven private pension bills and adj
jOurned until tomorrow.

UNIQUE TELEGRAPH LINE.
The Electric spark Utilized by nichi-
gan Farmers.

A Detroit (MIch.) telegram says; There
has grown up among the farmers of Lenawee
county. In this State, q telegraph system
which Is quite unique in Its character, and
which might be probably and generally ex-
tended throughout the rural districts every
where. The system began by two farmers
connecting their houses with awire for their
Own private convenience, and operating
their line with the ordinary Morse instru-
ment. Gradually other farmers extended
the line 10 their houses, and after time the
wire was run into the neighboring village OF
Tecumseh. Seven years ago the combined
farmers and few village merchants organ
lied themselves into a company, and IT has
since been extended, until now 1t has sixty
five miles OF wire and ninety Offices, two
thirds Of the latter being IN iarm.houses, and
nearly all the rest In stores where these farm
ers do their trading. One or two newspaper
Offices, as many more railroad freight offices,
the County Telephone Exchange, and
the larger post offices are all connected.
Every farmer j. bis own operator,
battery.man, and line-repairer. OF course
any quantity OF private communica.
ton Is kept IN between the stockholders oil
this independent system, and their con-
nection with the village stores makes 1t easy
10 communicate lnelf WISHES Is 10 puICuasts.
As It happened. one farmers life was saved
BIZ the wire. BY accident he took dose OF
poison. and no doctor was within several
miles, but the wire was connected with The
doctors Office in Tecumseh, and the farmers
daughter sprang to 1t and called up the ply
sician. Having ascertained the kind OF poi
son, the doctor telegraphed back TO I'll the
patient with sweet milk until be got there.
From one OF the railroad freight stations
standard time Is transmitted daily at II
O'Clock. When a piece Of important news is
received by the station officers, and at the
newspaper Office some event OF great national
or state importance, it is sent over the
farmers lines, and by this means the farmers,
who are regarded as slow and behind the
times, are often several hours ahead OF the
repuiedy faster deaizens OF the cities, who
are waiting for their afternoon papers TO APP
pear. There are two or three Independent
systems 0i these lines in operation in the
county, arranged so that they can be con-
nected with each other at intorsectlng points,
and the whole scheme is being worked very
cheaply and successfully.
