THE MlkADo NO GOD TO HER.
Empress Of Japan Has . Mind and WIZ
of Her Own.


Empress Of Japan Has . mind and VIII
of Her Own.
Although Empress Harulko Of Japan,
in public at any rate, manifests the
same degree of religious veneration for
the sacred person of the mikado that
is exacted from the remainder of his
subjects, yet she is credited with dis
playing in private something very much
akin to ontempt for his semi-divine at
tributes. Whereas he is distinctly dull
and heavy, both physically ard men
tally, his wife, ON the contrary, is re-
nowned for her cleverness, her enlight-
ened ideas, and for her strength of
cha -acter. In Japan, as elsewhere in
the orient, women are expected to re-
main obsequiously in the background
and to follow meelly in the wake of
their husbands, but Empress Haruko
takes the lead, and as the decidedly
better half of the two, makes her hus-
band yield to her superior intelligence
and influence.
To her more than anyone else belongs
the credit for the extraordinarily rapid
advance of Japan in the path of west
crn civilization, and in her efforts in
behalf of her picturesque country she
is greatly assisted by the advice of EN-
press Frederick of Germany, with
whom she is in regular weekly cor
respondence. Indeed, many of the new
departures in Japanese life of the pres
ent day may be traced to the recon-
mcndations of the eldest-and by far
the most accomplished-daughter Of
Queen Victoria.

A SPLENDID PROPOSITION.

The Theory Advanced that Creamery
Would Pay in Athena.
ATHENA, May 31.-[To the Edit
During the past long months
of the financial panic, no class Of
citizens have suffered and hoped for
turn in the tide as have the farm
ers, and, especially those, of East
ern Oregon.
They have thought, planed,
worked, schemed and laid awake
nights to devise some way whereby
they might earn few dollars to
pay running expences, taxes, in
teiest and debts. Wives and
daughters have come to rescue by
raising fowls, coaxing the hens to
lay more eggs, and the brindle COW
to furnish more milk and butter.
But prices have dropped to such
an alarming extent for these pro-
ducts, that the people stand agast
and ask themselves, "What shall /
do to be saved?"
If the farmer had a market where
he could sell for cash, his butter
and eggs-let the price be ever SO
small-it would be of incalcuable
value and benefit to this commun-
ity.
We believe there is a remedy for
this state of affairs. Other COM
munities have made a success of it,
with no better faculties land many
not as good than we possess.
There are, as your paper stated
last week, within radius of 7 miles
surrounding Athena, two hundred
or more good dairy COWS, that would
supply milk sufficient to supply a
small creamery and cold storage
plant.
In these days Of sharp compe-
ton, the small private dairyman
stands no show in the market
against we'll organized creamery.
Butter and cheese are now sold in
the markets in large consignments,
and of like quality, which receives
the top price if worthy of it. A
small creamery and cold storage
in connection, with machinery suf-
ficient for 200 COWS could be built
in Athena for $4,000, providing a
suitable location was furnished
free.
This would furnish market for
the dairyman, and hundreds of
dollars would be put into circula-
tion each month, and this commun-
ity would prosper as it has never
prospered before. As it is now
there is no money in circulation.
The farmers are living in hopes
that this wheat crop will be good
one, with good price. We hope so,
yet may be disappointed, In the
mean time, let us do something to
help ourselves, if the crop should
fail.
We have no doubt that business
men and citizens of Athena would
help along the enterprise, by furn-
ishing n suitable site and water,
while the farmers could take three
hundred shares Of stock at rs per
share, and in sixty days have a
creamery in full blast, ard, per-
haps in due time, a pork packing
establishment might be induced to
come among us. Let us hear from
others on the subject, and if salts.
