FENCE THE TRACK.
The Alarming Increase Of Accidents
Demand some PrOvisi0ns-The
Country ThickIy Settled.

The large number of accidents that
have occurred on the line of the
Oregon g. California railroad of late
demand that something must be
done toward the protection of life.
The most damaging wreck of the
season has been caused by stock
being on the track and derailing
several cars, killing the poor fire.
man and many others narrowly es-
Gaping a horrible death.
This line of railroad as well as
other lines now run through q thick
ly settled portion of the country.
7 hat is it is settled sufficiently well
enough to demand the fencing of
these tracks. Its al! well enough to
allow a railroad to run through a
barren desert without being fenced
but when it comes into a civilized.
community and runs through stock
farms and fields it should be COM
PEELED TO have proper protection from
stock. 1t is in the first place dan
gerous to the travelling public.
The West Shore, referring to the
alarming frequency of accidents on
the railroads of the northwest, caus-
ed 10y cattle derailing the locomo-
tives, says that il has become ques-
ton of deep public concern. Nearly
every state in the union has IA statute
compelling railroads to fence their
right of way and build cattle guards
at all crossings, and it is time such
a law found its place on our statute
books. At common law the railroad
company has just the same response
bilities as an individual in the use
of it's property, and is not only not
required to fence its road but Is not
liable for damages by reason of ac-
cidents caused by cattle straying
upon the track, unless gross careless
ness is shown in the management
of the train. 1t was early recognized
however, that locomotive rushing
at great speed along on iron track
was a mighty engine of destruction
which could not in any way be COM
pared to anything ordinary individ-
uals employed in using ;heir prop
crty, and in most states, as in Ore
gon, statutes were enacted rendering
"a company liable for all damages re-
sultiag from a neglect to f.ncc the
track. ]tut most states have gone Il
step beyond this, and the time has
come when this step must also be
taken here. Behind the rushing
locomotive and completely at tie
mercy of him who controls tn" iron
horse are millions of human leings
annually, whose lives are too pre-
oinpS fo ha MIA nca6 In ioDn, ri :. ui,r ,Iy
to save railroad company the ex-
pense of building fence along its
track. 1t is not enough that the
companies be compelled to pay for
all damages inflicted; the chief thing
is to render as secure as possible the
lives of those who entrust their per-
SONS to their care, and SO long as the
track is open to the approach of cat
tie, whose lives are placed in jeo-
pardy.

FROM HIGHLAND GROVE. This
new town plat on the Oregon Pacific
railroad is growing right along. 1t
was laid off quite recently and forty
lots have already been sold, several
dwellings put us, some of them very
neat and will be finished in good
style. The ground is now being
put in readiness for many more,
when the weather is suitable. The
building of the railroad, the manu-
facture and shipping of lumber, with
the farming and stock growing of
that locality, makes prosperity all
around in every enterprise. There
is no Touring mill east of StaytDn.
One Is much needed at this station,
where good water power can be
easily had ut small expense, right
in the town site. S. NJ. &.

There il upon the Yakima w. T..
reservation, a family of half-breeds
known as the Onleys. A romance
ia associated with the name. The
white father of the Onleys died
recently, but to the last he summed
his own race. In some respects he
was like Sam Houston, but unlike
Sam Houston he never repented ~
his self-banishment among the In.
dams. He was of a highly respect
able Rhode Island family and u
graduate at Yale college. About
the time he completed his studies
the discovery vi gold in California
occurred. On!ey joined the Argo'
nauts of 'I9 and came west to seek
his fortune. He left behind a sweet
heart to whom he was TO be married
as soon as he found the fortune and
returned. The girl grew weary OF
waiting, as many other OF her sex
has done. About year after lie
reached the coast Onley received .

of hunting down criminals. He
gave up his office, crossed the Co
lumbia river and became II member
of the Yakima tribe. His adoption
was i'm good faith on his part, for he
took an Indian wife and raised Il
family. AS his children grew up he
educated them with care, and when
he died he left them well provided

Household Hints.

Toast cloths are something new.
They are large square of linen, firing
ed and etched, large enough to set un>
der the plate of toast, and cover the
corners over the dish.
To have cheese-cloth curtains retain
their creamy look, put little strong
coffee or saffron tea into the water in
which they are rinsed lace can be
given the same creamy hue by TIE same
process.
Vegetables with a strong flavor, such
as onions and turnips, will be much
improved by putting them to boil in
cold water renewing this from a kettle
you take away all richness, and depth
and tenderness. Sorrow is the furnace
that melts selfish hearts together in
love.
