IT must be rather difficult for
Police Court Judges to decide what
to doin the case of wife beaters.
The only form Of punishment al
lowable is imprisonment, and that
is likely, in most cases, to punish
the wife even more severely than
the husband. The latter is too
callous to suffer from the stigma Of
imprisonment, and he is fed and
sheltered in the Jail. But the wife
often has to starve or accept char
ity. On the other hand the fellow
deserves punishment and Judge
dislikes to set him free. Hence
the oft-expressed wish by Police
Judges for whipping post. That
punishment would fit the crime
like the paper on the wall, and it
would not keep the recipient of the
punishment long for his labor.
But, after all, the best way to do
with men who beat their wives or
neglect their children, would be to
make special class Of them, so
far as the prison was concerned,
keep them hard at work at wood
chopping or something Of that kind
for a few months, and give every
cent they earned to tier wife Or
children. That would punish the
man without actually depriving
the wife or the children Of means
Of livelihood.-Ex.

WILLIAM PRESCOTT, the engineer

wounded during the encounter has
exhibited scheme for the defense
Of railroad trains against robbers.
Although he had drawings illus

drawings are not necessary. He
proposes to fight the robbers with
steam. He runs q small iron pipe

ascertained that there are robbers
the engineer turns a stop.cock and

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness. and that is
BY constitutional remedies, Deafness Is
caused by an inlamed condition OF the
mucous lining Of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets irfamed you have a
rumblipg sound or imperfect hearing, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi'
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out ten are caused by catarrah.
Which is nothing but an in0amed condition
OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol

NO SENATOR.

The Legislature Of Oregon has
been in session nearly its allotted
time, but no senator has been yet
chosen. The vote goes on from
day to day, absorbing the interest
|of the members, paralyzing their
energies and causing the neglect Of
Ethe peoples needs. With this
question unsettled, there is no
time left for Other business.
Valuable time that should be spent
in revising bad laws and prepair-
| ling good ones, is devoted to the
interest of the various candidates.
The welfare of the people is for
gotten and the interest of rival
factions is made first. The people
care far more for good laws, honest
Officials and economy in high
places than they do for the name
4 Of d senator. The silver question
is an important one, but it does
not justify the consuming Of tn,
i
entire time Of the legislature
There are other interests 10 b
looked after. These interests hav,
been shamefully neglected in tn
one absorbing topic-tho election
OF a senator. The party in powe
: will have to answer to the peopl
: at the next election. The blam.
can rest only upon the Republi
cans. They had and still have th
power, and it was their duty
elect a senator. They have faile
