AS we predicted DR., Webb's "Great
Aslatical Panticurial' has restored Mr..
Batty and family to health, and headed
them for the potato bin.
Senator Fariss lets us know that he is
alive by sending public documents, as
well as introducing numerous bills. He
does not seem to be afraid of making a
record.
"Sauce for the goose should be sauce
for the gander Some OF our farmers
think the trust bill should have passed,
wanting privileges that they do not
want to extend to others, forgetting the
golden rule. Instead of such bills let
the farmers continue to organize and
show to the world that they will dictate
instead of being dictated to.
D. NJ. Holt, attracted by the roar of a
slide, cried to his eight year old
son, Greed, run! and the little fellow
with outstretched arms called: papa help
me! but being overtaken was nearly bur
led beneath the great bank. If no one
had been near, Greed would have been
buried in those cold masses until the
sunshine would have caused them to
disappear and reveal their victim.
We understand that Ringer and
Spaulding, of Almota, are making an
effort to have the proposed U. S. mail
route from Pullman to Wawawai can
celed in favor of Colfax. The great ma
jority of our people want connection
with Pullman as it is better r. r. cen
ter than Colfax, and more convenient
place of communication with the fruit
markets on the Northern. Colfax should
have the Pullman postoffice, it would
help its trade.

The Tacoma Ledger's View.

The sensation in the senate lately
was the agricultural college debate.
Charges of combination" to effect loca-
tions of public institutions in various
counties were freely made, even to the
direct charge that votes for this very
Whitman county proposition have been
under mortgage ever since tho senatorial
campaign, and that the four normal
school locations, which are together in
an omnibus bill, are involved in the
scheme; the latter, as one senator put 1t,
being Jumped in one bill because the
conspirators are afraid to trust each
other or to allow any one of them to get
in first in a seperate bill. The senate,
by the exact number of votes required,
passed the bill to locate the agricultural
college in Whitman county, and with
this evidence of their devotion to the de-
sires of their county constituency the
Whitman county delegation will have to
return home content. The house has
already passed bill for the locating of
all public institutions by a commission
and not by the Legislature, and this is
clearly the disposition of the senate also.
The special Whitman county proposition
can, therefore, have small hopes OF sue
cess in the house.

it must have boon. We have no rail
road as yet, but hsre is river that can

in locks and digging a few trenches;
by this means T. q, Brown and J. G,
Wolf could ship their carp to advantage.
and it would be me means of encour-
aging other enterprises. The farmers
Alliance could then build warehouses
and elevators here, and ship the grain
by water, which would solve the question
of shipping rates. STEVE CLIP.

The fall sown grain here looks immense;
No doubt it has Jared better this winter
than it usually does.
We have been deprived of mail from
the lower country until we feel greatly
chagrined and wonder when the end will
come.
Some wheat and some hogs are being
shipped from here TOW. A large
amount of both having already been
shipped.
The ground is getting well settled
and travel by team will not be SO much
impeded as it usually is after break up
in the winter.-Cause, so little frost in
the ground.
For several days past it has rained
the greater portion of the day, and prob
ably night, much to the delight of our
farmers who are now busy planning for,
and arranging their spring work.
Some of our youn6 men are quietly
going off and getting married. Chris.
Hagemann being the first to return with
his bride. Joe Marlatt, an old pioneer
living in half mile of town, went east
last fall and now comes the news that
Joe is a married man.
DR.. Cox, of Genesee, returned from
Walla Walla last evening, having come
by the most circuitous route: over the
Northern via Spokane Falls. He reports
the damage done to the q. p, between
Alto and Snake river by the freshet as
extensive and likely to take some time
to repair the same.
Many of our people, in fact all who
were able to go whether by sleighs,
horseback or on foot, went to pay their
last respect last week to John B. Stand
ley. His death is to Cotton loss IRE
parable. He was foremost in all business
enterprises, and carried on volume of
business which he universally pushed to
its fullest extent; the business did not
push him.
I see by your last issue that Hon. J.
NJ. Hill has received the appointment of
supervisor of census for the eastern part
of the state. This will meet with the
approval Of the great majority of men of
both political parties. His many friends
around this town, mostly of adverse pol
itical fai b, received the news of his ap-
pointment with triumph and echoed to
the appointing power swell DONE"
The la grippe, with some abatement
in vigor and nmmber Of cases, still stays
with us and has no respect for parsonage,
even laying hold of the doctors, DR.,
Willsey having been confined to his bed
a week or mo, with a severe attack. 1Dr.
McCollum, cf Cotton, was prostrated a
few days with it and ere he had half way
recovered he was compelled to go almost
day and night administering to the wants
OF those afflicted with this disease. DR..
WllIsey has been under his treatment
for some days.
The county divisionists up north seem
to have caught their opponents mapping
and are likely to get their hearts desire,
SO says the Chronicle of Spokane Falls.
From the experience we have had pay
ing taxes in Whitman county the argu-
ment brought to bear against forming a
new county, that taxes would be too high
seems fallacious, in view of the fact that
other small counties in the state keep up
their existence, such for example as Co.
umbia county, however l am not suffi-
GENTLY interested, pro or con, to ask

FLAMING Herald


We are indebted to Mr.. Frank Smith, OF
Whitewater. for very grapnic account OK
the manner In which Piute Indian pre-
pared his deadly arrows. He gathered q
dozen OF more rattlesnake heads and put
them in a sperical earthen vessel. with
these he put half pint of aspecies OF large
red ant that Is found whereabouts. The bite
of this ant is more poisonous than THAT OF
bee. 4,
Upon these be poured bit Of water, and
then sealed up with moist earth aud q lid
this vessel. He then dug hole two feet
deep into the ground. IN which he built
roaring Ere and put in some stones. When
the interior of the hole and the stones were
red hot he made place in the bottom Tor
the earthen vessel and put 1t in. About 1t
and upon it he put the Goals and hot stones
and upon the top ne built fierce tlre, and
kept il up for twenty-four hours. Then he
dug out his vessel. and. standing OIL with
long pole. he disengaged the top ana let
the fumes escape. lie INSISTED that nsd
they struck his face 1t would have, Killed
him. The mass left in theNessel was q
dark-brown paste.
To test the efficacy of his concoction.
the Indian with his hunting-knife made a
cut in his bare leg, lust below the knee,
and let the blood run down to his ankle.
Then taking p stick he dipped i into the
poison and touched tho descending blood
at the ankle. II Immediately began to
scizzle. as if it were cooking the blood and
the poison followed the blood right up
the leg, sizzling its way, until the lndlan
scraped the blood of with the knife. lie
assured our informant that had he allowed
il 10 reach the mouth of the wound he
would have been dead man.
