1t is an interesting fact that the Spokane
Reriew and the Tacoma Ledger did nothing
20 encourage any railroad legislation dur.
Ing the past session OF the legislature. On
the contrary, the Reyiew opposed the An.
derson railroad bill and the Ledger through
out the contest maintained . discreet
silence.
The Posr-ISrELLIa ExcER insisted, how.
ever. that the people had some rights that
even the railroads were bound to respect.
and. aided by the local paper that remained
true to the interests Of the people, sue
ceeded in impressing upon the legislature
the absolute necessity Of taking action.
The people will probably have little
difficulty in distinguishing between true
loyalty to their interests and empty pro-
testations unaccompanied by any efforts
on their behalf.

1T WAS LOADED!
Accidental Shooting of a Man
BY his own hand.

A sad accident occurred in Eye
land township, Saturday afternoon,
which resulted IN the death of Louis
Moorehead, oldest son of George
Moorehead. The facts as near as
can be learned, are these: the boy
was working for his uncle, Hon.M
d.. Jones at whose place the acct
dent occurred, and in company with
another lad, Bert Mathews, went
out IN the pasture to shoot some
gophers; they had fired several
shots from a SO caiiber revolver
when it snapped; young Moorehead
held the weapon above his head and
looking in the cylinder. remarked
81 will see if there is any more
loads in her." at that instant the
revolver was In some way discharged
the ball entering his head about
four inches above the left ear, kill
ling him almost instantly. Young
Mathews was almost frantic and
ran around his fallen comrade sew
eral times, shouting for help at the
top of his voice; he then a across
the pasture to Ed. Longs; the fam
ny were at supper,a horse and bug
gy was standing in the yard, one of
the boys jumped into the buggy and
and drove to the scene of the trag-
edy As soon as possible, the others

at the body a CHASTITY sight met
their gaze; the body lay in a
cramped, unnatural position, gasp
ing for breath, blood and brains ooz-
ing from the wound and mouth.
Mr.. Long, says: SIT was the most
terrible sight | ever witnessed and
| hope never to be called on to see
a MOTHER"
Deceased came to this country
with his parents about four years
age, from Virginia. They settled
in Egeland and when the reserva-
ton opened the father took a claim
where he at present resides
Louis was an industrious boy, of
exemplary habits, bore a good char
acter and stood high in the esteem
of all. He gave most of his earn
ings to assisting his parents who
are in moderate circumstances. 1t
is particularly sad to see a youth,
just on the verge of manhood, with
promise of a useful future before
him, strong, vigorous and hopeful,
cut down at the very zenith of his
youth.
The sympathy of the entire COM
~itunity goes out to the family and
relations in this, the hour of their
dire atfliction.
The funeral took place Sunday
and the remains were followed to
the tomb by a large contlux OF
friends.

Changed His Mind.

An old and popular Irish clergy
man had disagreement with one of
his parishioners, a man OF great
wealth but vulgar habits and abusive
tongue. Upon hearing from a third
party that his ancestry had been
spoken Of disparagingly by this rich
boor, the old parson, borrowing
a Scriptural metaphor, exclaimed:
why, sir, my father would not have
set him with the dogs of his flock. !"
This remark reached the ears of the
nabob, who Immediately repaired to
the clergyman and demanded an
apology. The good old man listened
patiently to the rawlings Of his
parishioner, and closed the discussion
with the remark: "Did really saw
that my father would not have set
you with his dogs? l was wrong, sir;
l believe he would"

and his grandmother is worried
nearly to death with the fear that
he will get run over by the electric
cars or by runaway horse. She
has whipped him time and again,
and tried every manner of punish
ment she can think of, but all to no
avail.
A few days ago, after Houston had
given his grandmother a greater
fright than usual by running away
and getting lost, and not being found
until quite late at night, she decided
to cure him by dressing him in girls
clothes. So she made over one of her
dresses, fixed up an old sun bonnet
and some petticoats, and soon had
him dressed as a girl. And an odd
enough looking girl he made, too
His dress just touched the ground all
round, and the sun bonnet, which
had been used by his grandmother
for year or more, hid his little fat
face entirely. When completely
dressed from top to toe, he looked up
into his grandmOther's face, and
with merry twinkle in his eyes
said:
"Goody, grandma, can play I'm a
witch now," and he danced about the
room in high glee.
With some misgivings as to the
efficacy Of the "cure" she was trying.
his grandmother sent him to the
