HON HENRY q. DAVIS

In response to queries EX-SENATOR
Henry G. Davis has written q communi-
cation to the Register, which we publish
in another column, on the subject of his
attitude in this campaign in which he
has firmly and enthusiastically declared
himself in favor OF Bryan and Sewall
and the Chicago platform.
Mr.. Davis is an old line Democrat.
This fact to those who understand what
that means is sufficient explanation OF
his attitude in the present contest. His
faith is grounded in The Constitution OF
his country and by every section and line
Of that instrument ne stands win una!-
terable frmness. This explains Senator
Davis's determination to take an active
part in the campaign for the money
OF the Constitution, although i was gen
orally thought that he had permanently
retired from active political life. Sen
ator Davis has fairly won his tile 70 the
honorable retirement and case thai
ought to follow a long life of business
and political activity, but this campaign
in which enc Of me fundamental prin-
c!ples Of our government is boldly at
tackled and The attempt made TO over
throw government by the people and
to substitute therefor government by
Wall Sreet-in short. Piu,ocracy-has
brought on, ali the old Democratic war
horses and Henry G. Davis is among
them and in The front rank.
Mr.. Davis's letter in another column
is a splendid document. He is a Gear
reasoner and has all the facts and figures
at his fingers ends. We commend it 10
cur readers. Every one should read it
with care.

The Campaign Of Eduea.lon.

Mr.. Weatherford is not what might be
termed ready speaker. He halted and
stumbled, and sDuttered and ranted,
at the Baldwin opera house last evening,
while following the usual lines of the
new and populistic doctrine of the DEM
ocratic party. until the more intelligent
part of the audience assembled were
sorry for his sake they were present to
witness his discontinue. Weatherford
should never enter joint debate. There
were dozen men present last. evening,
who had they been allowed ten minutes,
would have strewn Mr.. Weatherford's e
labored theories to the four winds.
There was nothing new in his remarks,
SO far as his often obscure meaning
could be figured out. He upheld the
right of American citizens to criticize
the supreme court; reiterated the long,
since ex ploded theory that the federal
government has no right to interfere
with the rights of state when that
state is under the rule of mobs and
re-declared that international agreement

MILLINERY OPENING.
The Beauttfal Display Last Evening at
the EIite Parlors.

The Elite millinery parlors, Mrs. NJ.
E. Briggs, proprietresa, we're aglow last
evening with an exquisite combination
of colors, to which both nature and art
contributed. The handsome rooms, in
their gala dress, were tbronged till late
in the evening by the ladies of the CITY
and vicinity, who desired to take COM
prehensive, as well az a particular
glance, at this seasons fashions. The
decorations were profuse. Potted
plants and flowers were everywhere.
The predominating colors this year are
purple and green, and wherever the eye
CHANGED to rest it was met by this FASH
ionable and beautiful com mbination. Fes-
toons of ivy and woodbine were draped
along the walls, and the ceiling was
twined with purple and green bbons
in handsome contrast. Displayed in all
available places were the trimmed hats,
fresh from the .nilliner's hands, and
displaying to splendid advantage her
trained and tasteful art. The was moth
ing visible suggestive of the styles of
days agone, even in the recent past
Not an inch of space was spared for
last fall's hat, and indeed it would have
looked sadly out of place, so radically
different are this years shapes and
trimmings. The visitors were delight
ed with the display. which after all,
givesa ample scope for variety.
The Elite Millinery Parlors are always
abreast of the times, and its proplie-
tress evidently believes the ladies of
The Dalles should have all the adyan-
tages of metropolis in the matter of
fashions. She carries on carefully
conducted business, and has no old
stock to close out, no bankrupt goods to
palm off upon her patrons, because they
can be purchased for fifty cents on the
dollar. Owing to this principle of al
ways being up to date, the Elite Parlors
have easily attained the lead in The
Dalles in the millinery line, position
which Mrs. Briggs re-established by the
elegant opening last evening

Indian Love That survives Youth.

An aged Indian couple is reported
near the city trying to maintain life as
best they may. They are said to be
about 80 years old each. Contrary to all
traditional Indian customs, the hus-
band. who can speak good English, cares
Tery tenderly for his aged wife. In
;dians usually regard their wives, when
they become old, as cumbersome cattle,
and their portion is neglect, sometimes
abuse, which makes them an easy prey
to death. The old couple spoken of do
not follow the policy of their race, but
are very regardful of the welfare of the
other. They are having hard time to
make live of it, but if the storms and
exposures of the coming winter prove
too severe for one of them, the survivor
will mournfully attend to the proper
funeral ceremony of the deceased. If
they go together, it will be with mu-
tnal look of love into each others eyes
as the film that death bequeaths grows
over them.

for bimetallism is not to be desired nor
sought. But all of these arguments are
already familiar. The only mistake
made by the Democratic campaign COM
mittee was in sending out such n poor
declaimer as Weatherford, when there
are hundreds of bright boys and girls in
the land>who can repeat the speech with
all the arts and graces of the elocution-
ist, without the frequent repetitions,
and without the awful and glaring errors
both of rhetoric and grammar, which
