johnson of the Walla Walla Union,
is a singular genius. He publishes
every morning in his bright paper, all
the mean things that the other news
papers said about him the day before,
which is an unsual method of cleo
tioneering. Some of the statements
would make an ordinary man hot, but
Johnson has been so long engaged in
running a newspaper that he doesn't
mind such little remarks from little
sources, But, all the same it is funny
to read in Johnson's paper, owned and
edited by johnson that the aforesaid
johnson "is a trickster who would
rather make dollar by a trick than
honestly earn ten in the same time"
that he never does anything without
receiving pay and id good pay"
and that some of his folks stole money
and cleared out, ETC., etc. johnson
will be elected all the same, and will
help materially in making a good
constitution for the state of G. w,
Coming from the insignificant source
it does, johnson can consider such
remarks as compliments.

Heretofore the practice has been
tolerated to file homestead claims

time acquire a patent from the U. S.
land office ION general principles. !"
Our city residents, says the Welcome,
have obtained many such titles in this
vicinity during the past; but it seems
that the government has put an end
to such practice hereafter. By the
recent act of congress, settlers are
compelled to bona tide live upon their
claims, and not to leave the premises
except by obtaining written permis-
sion from the q. s. register and re-
ceiver at the Office where their home
stead is filed, which may be extended
for year if within the puryiew Of
certain defined causes. This law will
tend to surprise and embarrass thou.

Speaking about minister's" said
w. E. Harris, agent of the Royce &
Lansing Musical Comedy company,
to reporter the other day, reminds
me of an amusing incident which
happened to Mr.. Royce, our comedian,
while spending the Sabbath in a Mis-
souri, town last fall. You know Mr..
Royce is noted for his ministerial look.
Well, he and a friend attended service
at one of the churches of the place,
occupying a front pew. After church,
the minister who had noticed the we'll
known comedians presence, hastened
from the pulpit to welcome the
stranger, and after being introduced,
extended his hand with the remark
"A brother minister, 1 believe? No.
said Mr.. Royce. putting on one of his
quaint expressions, L am not as bad
as look. l am an actor"

NINE DOCTORS FAILED.

I would not be doing my duty to wo-
man kind if l did not let them know

Long on PORK.

The position of a broker or commission
merchant is not always an enviable one, es-
pecially when the principal or customer is on
the losing side of the market At such times
the broker is frequently appealed to for adj
vice, and woe to him should following events
prove his advice to have been wrong. Sitting
in the Office of John Peacock, at the Chamber
of Commerce, the other day, discussing the
probability Of doubling a $40 bill that had
Unexpectedly fallen into my possession, l was
attracted by the restless appearance of q
man who rushed up to Mr.. P. and exclaimed:
She's down twenty-five cents more, Johnl
What had we best do7"
l learned later that the stranger had
bought 500 barrels of pork some time before
for September delivery at $12.75 barrel,
and the market had steadily declined to
$3.50 Mr. P. said he hardly knew what to
do.
'WeI, is the market likely to go much
lowerP'
"rm sure l cannot tell 1t may and it
may not"
'Well, how low have you ever known pork
to go"
"Oh, don't remember ever seeing it go
below So"
II would like to know If the blamed thing
is going below that now just because / am
long of it"
an tell you how you can figure on that
and be pretty safe" said John. you can
always count on selling the barrels for 81
apiece and the salt will bring twenty-five
cents So it will hardly get below si.2s per
