GRANGEvILLE. IDAHO.
FRIDAY. - FEBRUARY q, 1896

EDITOR PARKER:-Allow me a
final answer to Mr.. Hayseeds re-
ply. In my answer to his kick l
gave nothing but facts, and will
only defend myself by such; where
as he could not give the reasons of
the "why's and wherefore's," etc.
He speaks of the cinch l have
taken of the people; if the man
was as well posted about milling
as he is about his hayseeds he
would not use the word "cinch" as
there is no such thing. l will not
60 into lengthy article, as l have
mentioned all the facts in pre-
viOus number; nor will 1 discuss
politics through your columns,
but will kindly ask Mr.. Hayseed
that when farmers exchange their
wheat for flour (and the miller
barely gets back his manufacture
ing cosD and that flour is sold and
traded for broadcast over the
country at any price, whom do
they cinch? Every miller and
dealer is cinched by it, and do they
care if they cinch anyone? No,
not by any means, l can quote it
from their own statements: 81 have
to do the best 1 can for N.Y.
self, and don't care" 1 wish it
distinctly understood that l have
not advocated a cinch upon the
people and our agreement is not
used as such, except as a mutual
protection and self sustainence.
God may forbid Mr.. Hayseed to
enter into combination to squeeze
the life out of the people, because
he is not so situated that he can;
but let circumstances reverse them
selves and we might find him pray
ing to devil for a new cinch be-
fore the old one is worn out. Let
him too, remember that supply
and demand governs prices, and
that l have paid these prices ac-
cOrding to market and even more.
Respectfully,
j. SCHwALBACH.

The long waves sweep to the rugged
shore with a flashing of sparkling
bells.
With murmurs of music soft and sweet,
in the hollows of tinkling shells
Fills the scalloped pools in the shining
sand, and breaks with a gentle shock
At the feet of basalt wall, and the led
ges of shelving rock.
Behind and beyond the barrier steep,
far up to the stainless sky,
Riseth encircled in shimmering mists
the dome of Hualalai,
And the winding path of the gods of
ED, in it's lazy zigZag creeps
From the kiss of the sibilant sea up
the face of the frowning sleeps.
The long beach curves to the south,
ablaZe with the dulse and tangle and
flowers
In rose and amber, the sea hath filched
from the depths of the coral bowers,
And the palm trees swing in the sea-
borne breeze DER the belt of fringing
snow
That girds the shore where the foam
bells beat on the beach at Napoopoo.
In the face of the scarped stark cliffs
that rise high above the ocean bed,
Are the bones of warrior kings, and the
graves of the mighty dead.
The sea-bird hangs on the beetIing

A QUEER CUSTOM.

Amongst certain Chinese clans a very
silly and cruel prevails, and on the 4th
November, Hon. Commander Hastings
was called upon to judicially admins
ter sharp lesson to one man who had
the audacity to practice it in the
Queens realms. The man, or rather
boy, for he is only seventeen, was
charged with committing a serious
assault on a newly married woman.
Although so young the prisoner is an
employer of labor and one of his work
men is the husband OF the woman.
She was married a few days ago and
on Monday night the couple invited
numerous friends to pow wow at
their house. The silly custom before
mentioned gives the right to any of the
friends to call upon the bride to re-
peat any expression they choose to
make; failing her compliance with
their requests the challengers have
power-that is in China, not in Hong
kong-to burn her face with the light
ed ends of joss sticks, cigars, or cigar

friends and he exercised his right by

which was very indicate. She re-

and before he concluded this atrocious

In the days of old when 1.-THE Lonely
One,' ruled all with an iron hand,
The walls echoed back the measured
tread of his men on the beaten strand.
And rang with the deafening noise of
his warriors gathered for war,
AS they shot their canoes with the
speed of light far over the sandy bar.
The waters were all alive with the
waas and the warriors bold
Their helmets shone in the morning
sun with the CLEAN of FURNISHED
gold,
And the sea like the topaz sparkling
reflected the sheen of the spears
Of the warriors turned to dust, in the
lapse of hundred years.
Where now is the spear, and the he'll

Where now is the painted warrior of
the days of the long ago?
Where now is the old kahuna with his
idols of wood and stone?
Vanished and left no trace behind, as
the morning mists have gone!
All! never again shall the war canoe

And the smoke of the mokuahi trails

SHOT IN THE BACK.

Matt Armstrong and Joe GrisweH
Attack Mr.. Sims Latta.
Mr.. Sims Latta lives four miles
from Columbia, on the Hampshire
turnpike. His nearest neighbor,
and living right opposite him on the
pike, is Mr.. w. J. Armstrong and
family. Matt Armstrong, bache-
lor about 40 years old, is one mem
Der of this family. Joe Griswell,
who lives in Nashville, married a
Miss Armstrong, sister of Matt and
daughter of w. j. Armstrong. Mr..
and Mrs. Griswell have spent a con-
siderable portion of their time re-
Gently at the Armstrong residence,
and were there yesterday.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Latta
started to town, in no top buggy,
holding an umbrella over himself.
The following account of what took
place on his way, we learn from a
member of Mr.. Latta's family. The
other side-if there is another side
we have not been able to get.
Mr.. Latta says that at his front
gate he was confronted by two shot
guns, in the hands of Joe Griswell
and Matt Armstrong. They were on
the opposite side of the road from
him, and the guns were pointed at
him; the gate was between him and
them. He first said to them, ''what
does this mean?" Receiving no an
swer he said to them, "if you mean
this as an attack upon me wait here
until can get my gun and l will
accommodate you both" Still
neither of the men said a word.
Mr.. Latta got back in his buggy,
turned around and started back
to his house. The distance from the
gate to the house is several hundred
yards. Mr.. Latta had gotten in
about fifty yards of his residence
when Matt Armstrong-who had
followed him from the gate, Mrs.
Latta saw this) shot him in the
back Mr.. Latta turned to see who
was firing upon him, when the
second shot was fired, striking him
under the shoulder blade and in the
side. The weapon used was a
double barrel shot gun; it was loaded
with bird shot.
After the second shot, Mr.. Latta
jumped from his buggy and started
towards Armstrong, who ran. Mr..
Latta then went to the house and
got his gun and started on the hunt
for his assailants; but his wife and a
lady visitor present, chung to him so
that he couldn't make much head
way, and finally yielded to their en-
treaties and went to the house.
Mr.. Latta was carrying a large UNI
brella over his shoulder; it was per-
forated with small shot. About
twenty shot took { fleet in Mr.. Lat
ta's back and side. DIR. Hazel Pad
gett was called in and probed the
wounds. None of them are danger
Gus, and the wounded man may be
expected to be out again in few
days.
