Among the numerous army Of veterans
which came to this capital Sunday we
observed several women who, shoulder
ing their guns with belts grded to their
loins. marched, keeping time to the
drums, and showing by their bearing
and demeanor as much discipline as the
best soldier. It cannot be denied that
Salvador, as far as the defense and the
preservation of its rights is concerned,
stands among the first nations of America,
since frail woman, though strong in these
cases, volunteers willingly to go into the
battlefield, not only to be of use in lend
ing succor to her wounded husband
or son fighting for his rights, but also
to their country by shouldering rifle
and firing ON the enemy cartridges, which
by nature she would fear to touch.
There, we say. must exist great love Of
country, profound patriotism and great
zeal for their liberty and Independence
for their fatheriand. Mensajero de
Salvador

UNwAKRANTED GOSSIP.
Sensational Story That General Sher-
mans Daughter Sold her Diamonds.

mans Daughter Sold her Diamonds.
New YORK, March IA story printed
In some of the Pennsylvania newspapers
to the effect that Mrs. Thomas w. Fitch,
the eldest daughter of General Sherman,
had offered to Tiffany number of val
liable diamonds from the invaluable
necklace presented to her at her marriage
by the khedive of Egypt, to be sold for
the benefit of her husband, Lieutenant
Fitch, who was said to be in financial
difficulties, is pronounced absolutely un-
true at Tiffany's. These jewels, it will
be remembered, were SO valuable that
an enormous duty was placed upon
them, which was removed out of con-
sideration to General Sherman. The
necklace was divided among Mrs. Fitch's
sisters. Mr.. Cook, the head of the Tiff
fany jewel department, said yesterday
that he remembered the necklace well,
the parts having been reset at Tiffanv's
after 1t was divided. None of the Jewels
had ever been offered for sale there, he
said, and if they were to be sold at all,
it would undoubtedly be at Taffany's,
for Mr.. Taffany and General Sherman
were fast friends. Mr.. Cook pronounced
the story pure invention.

ECHOES OF THE LEGISLATURE.

When we say that Senator Hilton did
not support The Dalles water bill, as
passed by the house, we say what is
true; but we say it with this qualifica-
ton; he did not support it till it was
amended to suit his taste. In this, how
ever he broke no pledge. A bill that
suited his two conierees in the house,
might have suited a modester man.
Perhaps there were others to please be-
sides himself, and if so his modesty will
remain unim peached. Senator Watkins
fought the amendment with all his
might He reminded the senate of the
fate of the charter bill. He told them
this was another effort, either to defeat
the bill or amend it SO that it would be
of no effect In vain. The senate was
deaf, the amendment passed, and the
bill took its place on the calendar.
1t was Friday morning, the day before
adjournment. The senate met at nine
O'Clock. Senator Hilton was promptly
in his place: Senator Watkins was a
little late. Immediately after roll call
the senator from Wasco and Gillian
sprang to his feet and moved that the
rules be suspended and house bill num-
Der 237 be put upon its final passage.
Senator Watkins entered Just as the mo-
ton acas about to be put by the president.
There was hurried whisper, an objec-
ton and the motion was lost. 1t was
all over in a moment, but the SAVIOR of it
fingers with us still. While we write it
we are 10th to believe it. Yet we saw it
or thought we did, with our own eyes.
The seats of the two senators were side
by side, yet the senator from Gillian
might have had his back turned, or he
might have been afflicted with tempor-
ary amaurosis, or he might have seen
through the walls of the state house, or
he might haye had secret intelligence
that Senator Watkins would be there in
time to vote. We are willing 10 believe
anything, but in the light of our early
education it looked bad. Perhaps moth
ing wrong was intended. The bill finally
came up in its regular turn. Meanwhile
Senator Watkins had consulted with
such of the trainers and supporters of
the original bill as were at hand. All
advised him to defeat the amended bill,
if he could. The senate was again deaf
Petition, memorial and resolution were
sent up to the president, and read to the
senate. Senator Hilton was implored
to present the slightest proof that the
people of The Dalles were behind him.
He sent up copy of the Times Noun
taineer. That settled it. Not man on
the floor of the senate but knew an out
rage was about to be perpetrated. Sew
eral of them, who voted with the major
ity, afterwards said as much, but avow-
ed they couldn't help it. Some skulked
into corners and committee rooms, as if
ashamed to vote aye and afraid to vote
no. Senator Hilton, was alarmed. He
moved call of the roll. The recalcit-
rants were mustered by the sargeant-at-
arms. Some begged to be excused from
voting. Senator Hilton objected and
they voted aye. The deed was done
and-The Dalles people were mot in it."

THE PEOPLES PAPER.

The columns of this journal are open
to every man who has anything to say
that the people ought to hear and know.
1t is the peoples paper and the people
can use it as their own. OF course it
goes without SAYING, the managers must
be the judges of the utility and propriety
OF any communication but nothing will
be excluded, merely because it is not in
harmony with their ideas. The editor
must not be held responsible for the
views OF correspondents. If any one
thinks himself wronged, by any words in
the columns he controls, the paper is at
his service, and the antidote will have
as wide circulation as the bane.

Brick Buildings in China.

LONDON, March 1.-The Chinese gov
ernment has engaged German official
named Lieske to establish an extensive
brick mandatory near Hong Kong.
The object of the government in starting
these works, which will be followed by
the establishment of others in various
parts of the empire, is to rebuild most OF
the cities whose houses are constructed
almost wholly of wood. The frequent
fires occurring in these places, almost in
variably resulting in the destruction OF
thousand of buildings. led the autorities
to the determination to substitute brick
for wood in the future, and to cause the
reconstructions of buildings as rapidly as
possible.

THE MAYORS MEssAgg

The message of His Honor, the mayor,
addressed to the last council meeting is
a cuningly devised document. He seems
to take all the credit to himself and
Messrs Hilton, Mccoy and Johnston,
for every valuable feature in the water
bill. If this is so we have done him and
these gentlemen a great injustice, SO
great that the columns of the journal
won't, today, hold our apology. We
shall try and make one tomorrow.

washbmn County, lkota Saturday 20,

Mr.. and Mrs. Laurence Casselman, who
went to Morrisburg, Canada, a few months
ago with the determination of making that
burg their future abiding place, returned
to Mclean county last Tuesday. Mr.. Cas-
selman says he couldn't stand it any longer
in her majesty's dominions, and longed for
the pure ozone of North Dakota and to
bath again in the sunshine and soft, balmy
air of the Missouri slope. He says they
are too slow and there is too much old
fogyism for him in Canada. Larry is as
fat and jolly as ever, although he COM
planned of feeling little sore in the arms,
which he attributed to the fact that when
he arrived in Bismarck his friends there
we're SO glad to see him that they came
nigh shaking off both of his arms. Larry
contemplates engaging in some sort of
business here, and although he has not
fully decided as to which branch of COM
mercial industry he will start in with, yet
it is more than probable he will blossom
out in mercantile establishments busi-
ness with which he is quite familiar.

(From Bismarck Tribune.)

Some time ago the Tribune received a
communication from an Iowa banker
named Steckel, criticising decision rem
dered by the Dakota supreme court in the
tax case of Powers vs.. Larrabee, and Just
as the Tribune was getting around to ex-
plain to Mr.. Steckel that the decision he
objects to was on case decided on law
and condition of things away back in
territorial days, out comes the Fargo Argus,
Grand Forks Herald, Chicago Tribune and
other papers with the same article and no
explanations-which is not fair either to
the court, the state or Mr.. Steckel. The
decision in question was against the legality
of tax sale wherein the description of the
property was not technically correct, and
that the party purchasing such property
was neither entitled to tax-title deed or
the return of the money paid INTO the
treasury for the delinquent tax. In the
tax-sale in question the descriptions were
published as follows: "N2, sw4" and E4,
S2." This the court held not to be legal
description. The court did not hold that
''N1199, swl'-using fractions instead Of
figures '.2" and "4"-were not proper

improvement in all branches of trade and
a more cheerful, hopeful spirit displayed
by all classes of dealers; and especially
was this the case with the Gull River Lum
Der Company, of which Mr.. Isaac Hooper,

tanned a steadfast confidence in the supe-
riority and ultimate success of the Mis-.
souri, Slope both us an agricultural and
stock raising country, and as an evidence
of their faith in the region surrounding
them, they have recently stocked up their
yards in Bismarck with immense quanti-
ties of lumber of every grade. They now
carry larger supply than can be found
in any lumber yard in the northwest, which
they are selling to farmers at greatly re-
duced rates. Our friends in Mclean coun-
ty who contemplate purchasing lumber,
should not fail to call upon Mr.. Hooper
when they visit the capital city. They
will find Mr.. Hooper courteous gentle
man, and they will also find that he will
give them prices that will defy competition.
