ADVICE TO The CRITIC.
Try to Do 1t Yourself and You'il Find
It's Not So Easy.

Just about once every three months,
and sometimes little oftener, says the
Madieonvile (Ky.) Hustler, we become
we'll Satisfied in our own minds that we
have made the mistake of our lives in
entering the field of journalism. So it
is with all professions, We are remind
OF this by finding that the world is full
OF people who understand the business
50 much better than we do ourselves.
We have come to the conclusion that
every individual ought to teach one
school, preach four sermons, practice
law few weeks, sell goods while and
run a newspaper for one year, 80 that
these same people could learn that they
do not know everything outside Of their
chosen profession. Anybody can criti-
else. 1t doesn't even require intellect to
do this. An idiot can grin at the presi-
dent, a clown can turn sumersault be-
fore the queen, a tom-cat can sqnall
under the steps of palace, yet the idiot,
the clown and the tom-cat all combined
could not write up ten-line article for
newspaper that would be fit to read,
neither could they teach school, preach
sermon, make law speech or do any
thing else that would benefit the world.
We suggest to the man who can always
do something better than his neighbol
that he some time undertake to fill bis
place. II the sermon doesn't suit you
you call your friends together next Sun
day and preach one that does gil the
bill. If the teacher don't know how tc
instruct, try few days in the way o
teaching lot of wild boys and girls
II you don't like the newspaper article
sit down and write reply to it and se'
how we'll you can compose. No one II
perfect in his profession, neither weult

While on the road here great many OF

expects his family over from Tacoma
this week, and they will occupy the

the Henshaw house; Wilma, George

Tatom building and go TO school this

s. p. Haslett, the pilgrim" tramp
printer, stopped in town couple OF
days the first Of the week, sampling
Condon's tanglefoot. He has probably
been in more printing Offices than any
man in the U. S., and is still on the go,
leaving here Wednesday for southern
points, expecting to stop at Fossil, Nit
chell, Long creek and Harney. A joke
Is told on him that while pretty full
Tuesday night he chased several young
ladies with "big club" For particu-
lars as to the size Of the "club," ask the
said young ladies.
A retired newspaper man gives this
philosophical reason for quitting the
business: "A child is born, the doctor

gets 90; IL marries. The minister gets

the minister gets another IS: the under

Clerk Lucas has been kept busy issu-
ing "glory ticketso recently, quite a
marriage mania having struck this
county this fall. Licenses to wed were
issued this week to Eben L. johnson
and Mrs. M. J. Rice, of Condor; John
X. Stevens and Elsie Cooper Of May
vile; Robt. w. Cahill and Addie May
Purinton OF Arlington. Ere this the
ladies' names have been changed and
six hearts made to beat as three. 1t is
common saying when a couple gets
married that "two hearts have been
made to beat as one" But that kind of
game can not be worked on the aver
age hotel proprietor; he always charges
for two, just the same.
The Dalles Express Office robbers have
been mailed" at last. Otis Savage,
Frank Klein and Ralph Gibbons are the
guilty parties, Klein having been scared
into making full confession. All the
$4,000 except 1900, was found where
they had hid it, and the $500 has since
been paid 10 the express company by
Klein's father. The stolen money prob
ably never. would have been recovered
nor the thieves caught, had not one Of
their organized gang Of thieves, Howe,
who is now serving term in the peni-
tentiary, given the boys away, telling
the officers how they had been planning
this theft for over year. Gibbons has
a family and has been marshal and
night watchman OF The Dalles for q
number Of years, and Savage and Klein
are both boys about 25 years OF age.
They have been bound over to the grand
jury in the sum Of $4,000 each, and will
all spend the best portion of their lives
in prison for their desperate deed.
