COL, GEO. M. ARNoLD's REASONS WHY
THE GRAND ARMY ENCAMPM EN :
SHOULD NOT MEET IN THIS CITY
Hon. ]. W. Douglass, chairman
Citizens Committee, I W asn;' sn:
DO Encampment 1897
G. A. Republic.

Dear SIR
Neither myself nor those assocla'
ted with me, in opposition TO
bringing the encampment OF the
G.. A, r., here in 1892, eight under
the bush.'' Our opposition Is
based on a correct principal, ana
on that we shall appeal to the En-
campment at Detroit next montn.
You are aware that there are quite
a number of delegates TO each Ell
campment that served as enlisted
men in the U. s. G. troops during
the war, as well as seamen III tne
Navy who are marked by complex
ion that makes them, in American
parlance. colored men; besides
these there generally goes with the
G.. A.. to each encampment quite a
number of loyal friends and we'll
vishers. The idea of bringing the
Grand Army to Washington city
where the class referred to will have
TO undergo insults and Humiliation,
from the keepers of restaurants,
hotels, inns, saloons, owners OF
steam boats, places of amuSements,
etc. etc., does not occur to US as
being the proper thing and we do
not mean to sit still and see 1t done
without protest.

THE TAXPAYERS SHOCLD HAVE
THEIR INNINGS.

The Honorable John HALEY lef
day before yesterday for Boise. liz
goes there to endeavor to lobby through
. bill authorizing the construction OF
. courthouse, 1T a cost Of 5000, in
Bellevue, Logan county. His cx.
penses arc to be paid BY the people OF
Bellevue.
The bill should not pass; and even
il it should pass it is not likely that
the bonds could be placed. The
territory OF which Logan county is N
part is now indebted to the amount Of
half a million dollars, for nearly ono
half Of which indebtedness Logan
county is directly respcns bic
Tho interest on this due tho past year
has not been paid, and i. is not likely
to be paid for some years unless the
State comes to our relief, as the taxes
already amount to IS on the 800
valuation, and there is an annual de.
6cit even with this high rate.
To increase the burdens Of the
already tax.ridden settlers would be
most unwise, and might even throw
the old territory OF Al,urAs county
into bankruptcy.
What is needed in the old county
10 not additional or heavier burdens.
but fewer and lighter ones. Ard
II the Legislature really has the
good of the people at heart it will
pass some adequate relist mt asure
that will enable tho taxpayers to me e,
their public obligations, heavy as they
are.
Most OF the legislation relating to
Alturas county heretofore had has
been for the benefit of few officials.
1t is, therefore, high time for the tax.
payers who have to pay for all this
monkeying to have their innings.

the following timely aud thoughtful
consi deration Ct crops and prices in
recent years:
Very likely it will be claimed that
the farming sections must he weak
because the crops were SO much poor>
er this year than q year ago. 1t is
strange how widely and constantly
this fact has been stated, and yet how
partial a truth it is. Even if the in
guiry be confined to the three crops,
wheat, corn and oats, which cover
about al the loss made, it is fact
worth knowing, for it is a very i,a-
portant one, that the aggregate Yield
for the two years 1889 and 1890 ex.
ceeds the aggregate yield Of any two
consecutive previous years in the his

One of the most amusing yet unex-
pected sensation scenes ever witnessed
in theatre occurred at the Theatre
Royal, Manchester. The curtain drew
up for Mr.. Toole to address the court in
re Bardell VS.. Pickwick, when the whole
of the jury mysteriously disappeared,
their "box" suddenly giving way and
lngulfing the ''good men and true"
At first the vast audience who crowded
every part of the theatre were silent,
fearing some dreadful accident had oc-
CURED, but as the unlucky jurymen
rapidly reappeared, unhurt, though look
ing very foolish, they broke out into a
perfect hurricane af laughter, which
lasted several minutes.
The-curtain had to be dropped to allow
the jury to be s'boxed" again, and when
Mr.. Toole began his address he provoked
another burst of risibility by alluding to
the jury as ''that worthy body of stead
fast and immovable men,"
A peculiarly amusing feature of this
novel scene was the fact that the major
ity of the Jury" were stage carpenters,
whose duty it was to erect the court" :"
and they suffered in this case for their
own carelessness.-London Tit-Bits.

Early next morning Stanley started off
s?th his company, promising to clear a
path as well as he could in order to en-
able Us to carry the boat sections through
the thick underground. Stairs, Parke
and then made careful examination
Of the men and loads, and found that we
should be obliged to leave fifty-six men
and eighty-one loads behind. Many of
the men We're so cowed and hopeless that
they wished only to be lsft to die peace
fully where they were.
But any man who was at all able to
crawl along we passed as fit to travel,
and those fifty-six men we left were near
iy all in the last stage of starvation and
sickness. At any rate, we thought that
their chances of getting food would be
better if they came with us, and nothing
could be gained by remaining where they
were.
We had great difficulty in getting the
men off with the loads, and it was past
midday before the last of the caravan
fled out of what is now known as Mel
sons starvation camp. I find the fol-

''It is truly terrible position for Mel
son to be left in; he has food only for
three days, and will have to exist on
what he can pick up in the shape of
fungi or roots. Stairs has left him a
fish hook and line, and it is possible he
may get few small fish, but the river is
SO rapid and full of powders that he has
but slight chance of catching any
thing.
Meantime we are going on with an
exhausted and starving column to try
and find food in trackless wilderness.

Old Rutfpr.

It is matter of wonderment to many
what becomes of the tons upon tons of
dairy butter piled up year after year in
the wholesale grocery stores and com
mission houses Of our cities, and which
the average American would not allow
on his table. ''The poorer the butter
the further it goes" said large butter
dealer of this city, as he packed rolls and
prints of various colors and sizes in a
sugar barrel lined with butter cloths
THAT expresses it in more ways than
one. Good butter always finds a ready
market here at home; it never goes beg
ging for buyers at any time of the year,
but packing grade goes to the end of the
earth. The contents of this barrel will
so to South America"
Not just as it is:"
''No; it will undergo manipulation.
The finn to whom this is to be shipped
melt down this grade of butter and pack
it in glass Jars. By the time it reaches
a South American port it is of about the
same consistency as olive oil The South
Americans use it on their bread as we
use butter. A large proportion of pack
ing stock shipped from the northwest
goes ultimately to European countries" :"
