Dying Out.

The smallpox scare is rapidly dying
out among the railroad men and the
last ones vaccinsted are grum bling
because they ever went near a doctor.
While the scare was on their arms did
not hurt them so badly but now tn at
there is no danger of smallpox the pain
of the vaccination is almost unbearable.
Two weeks ago the reporter was ques-
toned on all sides regarding the spread
of the disease but the last few days the
question has been seldom asked.
The railroads we're first to
take action to prevent the spread
of the disease. When the first few
cases had been reported the railroads
leading into this point posted notices
to the effect that all their employees
must be veccinated. They did not add
that so much money would be charged
for the doctors trouble, but it was
done free of charge aud all it>cost was

The "Bike, Escaped Uninjured.

Yesterday afternoon while one OF the
G. n. employees was hurrying to the
roundhouse on his bicycle he noticed
a big dog walking slowly towards the
path on which he was riding. 1t was
very muddy on either side of the path
and impossible for the bicyclist to
leave it, so it was very evident thst II
the dog reached there the same time
be did there would be disasterous
wreck. The railroad man swung
his arm viciously and yelled Ikea
Comanche Indian but it was no use:
The dog reache ed the path just in front
of the wheel and the railroader jumped
to save himself from destructive col
lision. Wild with rage he picked up a
large clinker and fired it with all bis
strength at the departing canine. His
aim was not the dog, but the rough
clinker cut cash en- inch long In the
thumb of his right hand from which he
bleed freely. He turned murderous
eye in the direction of the dog and
then sympathetic: look good and he
hit::at his bleeding thumb and departed
on his wheel.

Just What They Have Been Waiting
For.

The article in last nights HERALD
entitled 1.-The end OF the blacklist, !"
seems to have been read with q great
deal of favor by the railroad men of
this town. They have long regarded
the blacklist" IS an embargo upon
liberty and free speech aud now they
consider that by the decision printed in
yesterdays HERALD, whereby a
brakeman was awarded $1,000 against
q railroad company for placing his
name on the blacklist, the list will
hereafter be abandoned and that those
who have been refused work on all
roads on account of having some diff
Guilty with one, will again have q
chance to go to work. Said railroad
man this morning: "This is just what
we have heeu waiting for. On several
occasions l have subscribed money to
fight the railroads in this portion of
the country for blacklisting their
men but we have invariably been dis
ed all along that we could beat the
cases but the MAJ ority OF the boys
thought not and so the matter has been
allowed to stand. A rOad,in my esti-
nation has perfect right to refuse to
employ any man they wish to, but L
have sincerely doubted whether Or not
they had a legal right to tell other
railroads not 10 employ ulm. Iuds 10
carrying the matter little too far and
such privileges carry with them tinge
of slavery that should not be tolerated
in any country where the people
frame the laws 1t is a step backward
as regards civilization and forms little
crowns around the heads of the people
who possess such authority. Then
again the blacklist rule has been
abused to great extent by some of the
railroad officials. When the blacklist
started it required some great offense
for q man to have his name placed
there, but of late years it has
got down to petty spite and
false charges concocted by Of
fcials who have grudge against
some of the employees. 1 have an idea
there will be great many here who
will try to recover damages for having
been blackiisted and for my part /
would like to see every one of them get
Judgment for the amount they ask.
It would not hurt the railroad officials
to diet themselves on common sense
and assorted judgment for the next
few years at least as the employees have
had to do in the past"

WOOL GOTTEN FROM PINE TREES
New Industry About to Be Launched
in the State of Oregon

Most men would as soon think of gather
ing figs off thistles as wool of pine trees,
vet that is just what the promoters OF new
Oregon industry propose to do. MIR. and
Mrs d. A. Cords are establishing plant at
Grants Pass for the manufacture OF pine
needles into fabric very like woolen cloth.
There is nothing new in this industry. 1t
has been carried on in Europe for years, but
never before has it occurred to any one
that in the forests of Oregon is better ma
terial and more of it for the manufacture
of pine wool than any place else in the
: world.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cords are enthusiasts, but
are practical-minded, withal, and do not pur-
intend first to make material oil the con-
sstency of excelsior for mattresses; after
that they will manufacture the cotton which
is used for undercothing, bandages and
other purposes where soft and pliab,e fab
ric is required. Only the inner fabric of the
needles can be used for the latter, and the
process is expensive, but no more so than
| that of the manufacture of lambs wool.
Mrs. Cords is familiar with the process OF
manufacturing fabrics from pine needles in
Germany and France, and in visit to Ore
gon something more than year ago it oc-
cured to her that the pine trees here were
better suited to the purposes of manufacture
than those of the continent. A little investi-
CATION convinced her that it would be worth
while to try the experiment, and, with the
small factory at Grants Pass. Machinery
of the proper kind was not to be had, and
it was necessary to send to Europe for it..
This caused delay, and when the machin-
cry arrived it proved useless.-San Fran
cisco Examiner.

successful. The plan is for the boys of the
regiment to raise 5000, and each company in
the regiment will then undertake to raise
another 800 from among their friends, max
ing total of $500. The remainder of the
$4,000, which is the amount it is proposed to
spend on the monument, will be raised by
popular subscription. The proposition is to
have the monument erected in Los Angeles
and to have it inscribed with the names of
the twenty-four men who lost their lives in
