THE CAVALRY HORSE.
Iic Must BE the Friend and Compani
OF the Soldier.

Iie Must BE the Friend and Companion
OF the Soldier.
Physical fitness is closely related to
mental fitness, for that horses have
minds affections and memories no one
can deny, and all who have studied
them will bear testimony to the effects
of ill-treatmentand kindness upon them,
not only in the performance OF their
work, but upon their durability. Horses
kindly treated will do Us much, II not
more, service in given space OF time
than those which are harshly used,
while they will certainly last very much
longer. With unfeeling treatment and
bad management horses can be worn out
in very short period whereas, under
the opposite conditions thoir lives might
be most uscfully prolonged to more than
twenty years. Therefore it is that, in
order to assist in insuring the physical
fitness OF their troopers, soldiers should
be continually reminded OF the
great Importance OF kindness to their
animal friends and companions, Hu-
manity to animals Is sacred duty Inn
posed upon all Of us; to the soldier it is
this and something more, for his life
may depend upon tho reciprocal feeling
OF affection existing between himself
and his stced. In tho words OF an old
cavalry soldier: "The rider must live
only for his horse, which is his legs, his
safety, his honor and his reward"
Soldiers should never be deprived OF
thoir horses, II possible, II they have
taken care OF them, but they ought to
be encouraged to form friendship with
them, or even TO imagine kind of pro-
prietorship in them. Officers and men
should learn as much as they Gan OF tho
care and management needed TO keep
their horses Ia tho best condition for
work and how to preserve them from
injury. Aldrrsl,vi Military Society.

Reports show large Democratic
gains in the Ohio cities where cleo
tons for municipal officers were held
Monday. The entire Democratic
tickets were elected in Cleveland and
Columbus. The Democrats got all
the offices to be filed in Cincinnati
except that of Clerk of the Police
Court. This is indeed victory fol
the Democrats. The Republican ma.
iority in the Board of Education and
the Council, in Cincinnati, is very
small. 1t has been for years over
whelmingly Republican.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the in
dividual. Such remarkable event is
treasured in the memory and the
agency whereby the good health has
been attained is gratefully blessed.

praise of Electric Bitters. So many
feel they owe their restoration to
health, to the use of Great Alternative

Gov. Buckncr vetoed a Scott county
prohibition bill the other day because
a clause forbidding the selling or
giuing Of liquor to any one within two
miles of a Presbyterian church would
"interferc with the rites of hospitality"
This is drawing it pretty fine in the
veto business. The same objection
might have been urged to the anti
cigarette bill, which the Governor W.
hesitatingly signed.

DELEGATE,
The Picnic.


Pursuant to advertisement. the gesang
uerein gaye their excursion Sunday on the
Harvest Queen. At o'clock about 300
pleasure-loving people boarded the steamer,
which started at $3.50 for Mosier Landing.
After an hours pleasant ride the excursion
lists landed, and betook themselves to the
picnic grounds.
After sumptuous lunch, in which all
participated, the German Singing Society
rendered some excellent music, which does
credit to themselves and their able director,
Major Bettingen.
The Dalles City Band, under the leader
ship of Mr.. Tully, also rendered excellent
music.
In the afternoon foot races were indulged
in. Following is list of the races and the
winners:
Boys race, for purse of $3.50, was won
by Bert Bagley.
Girls race, prize. box of cologne, was
won by Valarka Liebe.
Sack race for boys created considerable
fun for the spectators. Thos. Scully carried
off the prize, which was German accor-
deon.
Second sack race for purse of 81 was
won by Walter Reayis.
Second girls race, best and second best,
for cash prizes, was won by Katie Leary and
Anna Korton.
Ad. Keller carried off the prize in the fat
mans race.
At o'clock the crowd returned to the
boat, which started on the return trip at
$50. The excursion was a success in every
respect, and reflects credit on the various
committees who had the management of the
affair

Natural POIiteness.

The beautiful politeness an1 courtesy
of the Sweeds themselves is thing that
is very striking to visitors, says writer
in Temple Bar. They lave large as
sortment of bows, bobs, courtesies and
hat-lIftings according to age and sex, but
this lifting of the hat to mere acquaint-
ances reaches, fancy, much lower down
in the social scale than elsewhere In
Europe. 1t looks odd to see the butcher
boy in blouse elaborately taking off his
hat to the bakers assistant. l suspect,
on examination, Swedish hats would be
found to obtain little extra stitfening In
order to enable them to stand the wear
and tear of these greetings.
On one occasion, when going by steam
boat to Upsala, noticed d very quaint
example ofthis natural trait. The steam
boat, as 1t pears Upsala, passes through
many shallow reaches of the Malar lake,
where the depth of water Is insufficient to
allow of the passengers being landed in
the ordinary manner, directly on to land
ing stages, and they have to be taken ON
shore in small boats. The ferryman. on
shipping his complement OF passengers,
would irst take dozen strokes or so in
order to clear the screw of the steamer,
and then would carefully lay aside his
oars, rise from his seat. and take off his
hat with a solemn bow to the people sit
ting in the stern whom he had just taken
off the deck OF the steamer. He would
then row on again and put them ashore.
This did not occur as an isolated instance,
but regularly every time the passengers
mad to be landed by shore boats. l am
afraid our English railway guards and re
.porters. whom have hitherto imagined
to be the best hammered people on the
planet, would net bear com parison with
these natures gentlemen. Lord Chester
6eld himself would scarcely be in the
RAINING.

T Hope is six inches bigger around since
the Democrats sent him those two kegs Of

it, and he has pot thinner.
Lieutenant Burr has come hack here to

We have not had freight train for three
days from Portland, yet the Oregonidn says
not word about it. What is the matter.
Why does not the Oregonian come ont and

BE Fair and Fear Not.
DUFUR, MAY s, 1890.


Editor TINES -MouSTANEER:
If the present political canvass is going to
be personal fight the sooner the Republic
cans know it the better. Two years ago
the Wasco Sun singled out Mr.. Gourlay,
the candidate for assessor, as It's target for a
series of petty attacks, leaving the rest of
the ticket alone. From this weeks issue,
which has just come to hand, it would APP
pear the same tactics are about to be fol-
lowed by the same paper against the same
gentleman. Editors may come and editors
may go, but Democracy changes never.
After proving that Mr.. Gourlay has not
farmed any for period of many months Ia
terrible crime, by the way, and one which
wholly unfits him for being a candidate for
county clerk) the editor goes on to say that
the farmers will not support Mr.. Gourlay,
because he characterized their ''third party"
as combination of political soreheads,
grangers and prohibitionists. This remark
must have grown out of an incident that
happened at meeting held in this town last
winter Mr.. Gourlay was present, so was
the writer, and about 80 others. Some one
asked what the principles of the third
party were? Ne one seemed to know. Mr..
Gouray was singled out and requested to
izform the meeting, if he knew. what those
principles were. This, remember, was be-
fore this party had made any organization
east of the mountains. Expressly disown-
ing all personal knowledge of the party, Mr..
Gourlay said that the common rumor had 1t
that the party in the valley counties was
composed of "soreheads, freetraders and
prohibltionists. The editor OF the Sun has
''granger' instead of ''freetrader"-the word
s'eranger" was never used. The Sun would
teach its readers that Mr.. Gourlay gave out
this as his own opinion. He did nothing OF
the kind, and no man who was present at
the meeting, and has any regard for the
truth, will say SO. But enough, the matter
is of little importance perhaps, it may,
however, be a straw to show which way the
wind is blowing. If the Sun is going TO
make a personal fight, and single out the
Republican candidate for clerk as the mark
for its arrows, it can rest assured that it
will get all it wants of it before election
day.
l recommend for the Suns consideration
| the gentlemanly conduct of the TINES
MoUNTAINEER during the last campaign
and the present, in which not a word
derogatory to the character of any o. the
Democratic county candidates appeared.
Will the Sun go and do likewise? We shall
see. G. P. B.
