RAMEY ANo RArrLER.

Lee hamey WAS bitten 10y IL ratti6-
snake near Sunderlins Wednesday
morning He was walking along up a
trail on the side of the mountain, when
the snake without the slightest warn
ing sprang out and seized him by the
left hand, between the thumb and fore
finger. Ramey could not shake it loose,
so he reached for his six shooter and
shot the reptile just below the head.
This caused it to loosen its hold, but it
sprang again quick as flash and sank
its fangs into his leather coat and
winding itself around his leg at the
same time. In vain did the young
man try to shake it loose. After shoot.
it in several places he finally grasped
it by the neck and shot its head off.
After disposing of the snake he at once
produced his pocket knife and severely
sacarified the bitten hand and then
sucked the poison from the wound.
The doctor says this is what saved
Ramey's life. He then fastened to
Sunderlin's where remedies we're appli-
ed but afterward when he became
worse DR. Kenney was telephoned to go
up, which he did, in company with Mrs
Ramey, the young mans mother, arriv
ing there about five o'clock in the after
noon. He dressed the wound and APP.
piled new remedies and when he left.
his patient was doing wen, and appar-
emily out of danger He Will be laid
up for some time, however. with very
sore hand and arm Mr. Ramey says
the snake was monster of his kind,
weighing not less than ten pounds.
The Sunderlin neighborhood. is noted
for large rattlesnakes, many big fellows
having been killed there in the past

The following item was prepared
for publication by one of our lead
ing educators in reply to an article
we clipped from the Caldwell
Record, on the late teachers exam
nations.
The idea OF simple, practical
questions in arithmetic and gram.
mar, the two subjects considered
most difficult, being too hard for
the teachers OF Idaho is absurd.
The TACT is, as a state, we are be-
hind in matters of education. That
there should be the same little
trouble in making an advance is to
be expected. Examination ques-
tons are one of the means by which
the standard is raised. To say that
it is to difficult to be able to analyze
and parse such a sentence as "the
soon you come the BETTER" is to
cease the common English and say
that schools and teaching is to
help us into stilted English so that
teachers and children can analyze
and parse. The fault of schools is
that they unfit, for common life. |
The most difficult problems and |
md the difficult English are those
If common life and school and the
eachers discharge their duties only
when the teacher is soup in knowl-
dye that the children are fitted for
common life.

Not for many years has wheat
sold at Portland for the prices now
paid. Wheat sold for 81 cents per
bushel yesterday and the prospects
are good for 81 Yet we were told,
a year ago, that if we did not grant
free coinage to silver, wheat would
not again be cold for more than %
cents. Other commodities have
also advanced in price; live stock
and meats, wool and lumber, oils
and leather, lead and iron; and
gold, that was said TO have become
too dear, is found to be cheap
enough. 1t is clear that somebody
has totally misunderstood the mon
eY problem. - Oregonian.

There are none so blind as those
who will not see." Since the rise
in wheat, the republicans have been
endeayoring to show the silver adj
vocates that it is the great demand
for wheat that has caused the adj.
vance in the price of that commod-
ity and that it will take nothing
short Of like demand for silver to
effect a similar advance in the price
Of that metal. Silver editors seem
to see no further than, that silver
declined while the price OF wheat
has gone up and cry for an act Of
congress to raise the price OF silver.
As a coin a silver dollar is on a par
with gold, each being valued at one
hundred cents, but as a commodity
silver rises and falls with the mar
kets. AS well ask congress to raise
the price OF coal, hogs, cattle or any
other commodity.
