Asylum's Oldest Inmate.

SALEM, Or March 22.-Jonn D. Shear
ar, one of the most interesting characters
at the asylum, died this afternoon, after
a short illness. He was SO years old.
He was one of the first inmates of the
Salem institution, having been moved
here when it was opened from the old
Hawthorne asylum in Portland, to which
he was admitted from Lynn county IN
1863, when he was 60 years old. He did
light work around the building until a
short time before his death.

A TRIP FOR THE EDITORS.
Secretary Tozier Approves the Plan of
Taking Them Down the River.


The following letter was received by
Judge Blakeley from the secretary of the
Oregon Press Association in answer to
his communication regarding the en-
tertainment of the editors W no will visit
our state. The plan of taking our visit
ors from here to Portland by boat is a
splendid one, and we trust will be con-
summated. Mr.. Tozier says:
PORTLAND, Ore, March 81. 1850
Hor. Geo. c. Blakeley. President Com
mercial Club, The Dalles, Oregon.
Dear Sir and Friend With pleasure
read yours of even date regarding the
action of the Commercial Club in the
natter of entertaining the National
Editorial Association delegates.
Having attended the association about
a dozen times, leads me to agree with
the opinion expressed by the directors,
that trip down the grand Columbia
after dusty ride from Spokane would be
the proper move. I will at once for

convenience regarding the matter. He
selects routes coming and going. Our
local committee arranges for excursions
while the delegates are here.
1T is expected that the delegates ar.
rive here not earlier than the morning
of July 4. That matter rests with Mr..
Page. He could so arrange that the
special arrive at the metropolis of Wasco
county about a. M, the Sd, spend two
hours in your city, then board the
steamer for this city, arriving in time
for them to aid us in usEering in the
4th. Our people desire to have the
delegates here the morning of the Fourth
or not later than noon of that day. 1t
would be difficult to arrive here earlier
than noon if the boat left at 6 a. M, yet,
if the run would be made in FIVE hours,
as you state, it would put the delegation
here about the hour the eagle screams.
The delegates will be governed by Mr..
Pages suggestions, and the sooner all of
our plans are laid before him the better
for all concerned. The Dalles will be
recognized on this program.
A committee will meet the delegates
at the state line. Another could meet
them at The Dalles. By making the
river trip on the way here would save a
day that could be devoted to some other
point. Prehaps that day could be
spent at Vancouver.
1t is the desire of the Portland Press
Club and the citizens, that every minute
possible be put to good use. The dele
gates can sleep when they get home.
There will be at least calculation SOC
people to accommodate, and Mr.. Allaway
may have a billsof damages for having
his boat swamped.
Personally, I like your suggestions
and were one of the visiting delegates,
would prefer the trip from The Dalles by
boat. A souvenir button with Vic

WOMAN's lNHUMANITY TO MAN.

But it must be owned that there is
too much truth in it. Woman's inhu-
mainly to man is good deal 10 evidence.
The late Senator Morton, OF Indiana,
was, it will bs remembered, an invalid
and cripple. He came into company
at the capital one day in a state OF great
indignation because, in a street car
crowded with young women, not one
had offered him seat. and he had been
compelled 10 make the journey pain.
fully and precariously supported upon
his clutches. The like Of this may very
often be seen. Humanity, considera.
ton for weakness and helplessness, is
the root Of which chivalry is a fac
flower. 1t is a startling proposition
that mans inhumanity to man is less
than woman's, but the time seems to
give it some proof. At any rate, a man
evidently disabled would not be al
lowed to stand in a public conveyance
in which able-bodied men were seated,
even in the most unchivalrous part OF
our country, which l have given some
reasons for believing to be- the city Of
New York. And, il that be true. it
seems that the assumption Of the right
Of an able-bodied woman to remain
seated while disabled man is standing
is an assump' ion that the claims Of
chivalry are superior to those Il hu.
mainly. On the other hand, it may
fairly be said that the selAshness Of
women with regard to the wayfaring
man is more thoughtless and perfume,
tory than the selfishness Of men with
regard to the wayfaring woman. In
this country, at least, this latter is il
all cases felt to be violation Of prop.
erty and decency. The native Ameri.
can feels himself to be both on his
defence and without defence, when he
