THEY ARE MUCH ALIKE.

Representative Hunsuker, of White
Salmon, writes to:the Goldendaie Sentin-
al, under date of March 23d. and ex-
plains the manner in which house bill
No. 25S was defeated in the Washington
legislature. The bill required persons,
companies or corporations owning or
controlling railroad coterminus with or
constructed around any obstruction to
navigation in any of the water of the
state or on the boundaries thereof, to
keep in good repair and operate the
same on a given compensation. Had
the bill become law and fixed reasona-
BILE rate for transfer, it would have help
ed to solve the problem of an open river
by compelling the company owning the
present portage road at the Cascades to
carry any and all freight offered it from
any person or company whatsoever.
Mr.. Hunsuker succeeds in showing that
the same influence the defeated the road
from The Dalles and Cello was also at
work in Washington. 1t would have
mattered little perhaps even if the bill
had passed, for Governor Laugton who
seems to have vetoed nearly every meas
ure that had its object the relief of the
people from railroad extortion, would
have very likely vetoed that bill too.

THE COMING ELECTION.

According to the ordinance passed at
the last meeting of the council the 18th
of April is the day fixed for the property
owners of this city to vote on the pro-
position of bonding the city for a further
Indebtedness of $25, 900 to complete the
city water works. Whatever opinions
may be entertained regarding the
necessity of incurring the expense and
delay involved in such election or what
ever views may be held regarding the
wisdom or unwisdom of adopting the
gravity instead of the pumping system
there can be but one side to the question
involved in the coming election, and we
are satisfied there can be but.one result.
We can have no improvement in either
the quality or quantity of our water sup
ply till sufficient money is appropriated
to finish the work, already so far adj
vanced. 1t needs, therefore no argu-
ment from us to prove the necessity of
casting an affirmative vote and when the
election is over, we have no doubt that
all other necessary measures for COM
pleting the works will be rushed through
with least possible delay.

Recent London Expressions.

ever been able to tell exactly how slang

that when it secures good circulation
in the small talk of the big English
towns its appearance here within a short
time is inevitable. Nearly two years
ago everybody in London indulged in
the expression s'in the movement. ''

York there is no more scathing comment
upon a mans general failure than the
remark that he Is mot in it,

poetical simile that the unfortunate man
is like the Label on bottle AS the label
is not in it, the aspersion is severe. The
two new words of the year in London
are "spoof' and lsswide." To spoof a
man means to trick him, to comment
and put up q wicked trick ON him, and
to generally cavort with the more tender
and trustworthy elements of his nature

ITALY A LAUGHING STOCK.

If it be true as the dispatches indicate
that every man of the eleven Italians
who were massacred at New Orleans was
on the rolls of the city's register of voters
there is no longer any doubt that Italy
has put her foot in it badly and has sue
ceeded in making herself laughing
stock for the world. The haste with
which the Italian boss, Macheea, himself
victim, was wont to make American
citizens of his compatriots deserves the
thanks of grateful republic. Thanks
to Macheea's greed political power Italy
will be spared the trouble of licking the
United States. The war is over before
it is begun. Italy has made fool of
herself aud the United States has been
taught lesson on foreign emigration
that she will do well to take heed but

rh. Ice rrx Of a.nmar..

In a recent article in The Pail Mall
Gazette writer hints that the flies,
which are mentioned by old writer's as
having been plentiful ON Beumore dur
ing the most rigorous part of the winter
preceding the advent of the plague in
London, have again appeared in the
snow bound heights of the old mountain.
He says: "a week since, in company
with a friend, l made the ascent of Ben
more from Crianlarich We found the
cone well filed with snow, which got
deeper and frmer as we ascended, and
when we reached within, say, 500 or 600
feet of the top we came upon q solitary
fly, quite dead, but which had evidently
been very recently in the full enjoyment
of life and health. A few feet further on
we found i've or six more, some alive
and some dead. but higher still, and
within a very short distance of the top,
we were surprised to find hundreds and
thousands of them, all alive and appar-
emily enjoying themselves.
cat this elevation the ground was
deeply covered with snow, and all the
rocks thickly crusted with ice We
noticed that it was particularly where
the ice was thickest that the insects
were most numerous On the south side
of the mountain, where we descended,
we saw none of our little friends. am
not a naturalist, and Kenmore may be

Sandy Olds was committed a day or two

Probably the best all-round exercise
for developing the muscles is wrestling.
1t is the only form of exercise except
swimming which calls into play the en-
tire muscular system of the body. Spar
ing is sure to give a man good lung
room and plenty of shoulder muscles.
Rowing builds up the forearfns and
back, and bicycling develops the legs
only. In wrestling there is scarcely
muscle of the body that is not called
into play. The grasp of the fingers, the
suppleness of the ankle, and the strength
of the back are as important as the
power of the arms and legs. The exer-
else, however, is so severe that only the
athlets venture to practice it. -
