Pioneer Patriots.

,,udervood tells story that
Ge0lse tbe patriotism OF the pioneers
OF Levi Vii Of 1865 a party OF twenty
ID Ar are working on Jawbone bar SIX
n ll,ilss below Lewiston on the enaks IS
pl,, when the steamboat came . a.oan :.
rlVe' ,nd with the stars and stripes AT
hal ,arr rocker stopped, every shovel
- man, who was speechiess
SUPP ,te silent message of sorrow The
t'UD at hnlf-nast.' That sentence in
nag ;oe that trembled with emotion,
10" .he only word spoken. The boat
vas aI the water. Every pulsation OF
p oreat engine was all imaginary tap
- . muffled drum in funeral march.
II the company was young newspa-
,sr man, who had left New York or
r unit of his health. He was union
:, Of the pronounced type, and he was
,.,der in every assembly, whether Of
liners or politicians. He instinctlveiy
-. oa his hat and his associates fol-
lived his example of expressing their
rr,sf without knowing the cause Of
mourning
The boat passed up the river without q
,ord or sign from a man on board
o,,y the inanimate sign of mourning
aa,ed 70 he sentiments of these anx-
ious spectators.
is probable that the passengers and
orsw took the miners to be only Indians
~ whom the news of the day would have
been unappreciated. At any rate, the
miners were left TO work out the prob
lem Of the cause of the mourning that
was conveyed to them by the flag at half
mast.
They worked il out in silence. The
vonng newspaper man, still standing III
the sun with his head bare, turned pale
man whose heart had ceased to beat
for minute. Then he cried out like q
man who had seen terrible apparition,
like maniac in the throes OF fear OF the
imaginary horrors of madmans hell
eLincoln is dead Lincoln is MUIR
deredl"
With one accord the shovels fell upon
the rocks, twenty men started to Lewis
ton and though the hot sun beat upon
sandy road, they beat the boat to Lewis
ton. There they heard the confirmation
of the message that had come to them
how? By telepathy' Those men knew
from that message from the soul of the
Young patriot that the great president
was dead They brought that message
TO Lewiston in advance of the boat,
That was the first news Of this national
calamity that reached Lewiston, that
message by telepathy.
It will be in order here in connections
with this remarkable story to say that
the news of Lincoln's assassination upon
the people of Lewiston was very marked,
The public grief found expression upon
every face. There were none to rejoice
as was reported from OF her sections o.
the country. The citizens of Lewiston al
that time were all patriots and there
were none but Whist joined in the patient
grief over the commoner upon the
impulse of the moment. This spirit 81
patriotism has never waned. It wai
mildly manifest in the hearty welcome
to the old soldiers this week.

is IT RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines

(From Sylvan Valley News Brevrad y C)
1t may he a question whether the editor
of a newspaper has the right to publicly
recommend any of the various proprietary
medicines which flood the market, yet as
a preventive of suffering we feel it a duty
to say good word for Chamber.ain's Col
ic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We
have known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years ana have always
found II reliable. In many cases dose
of this remedy would save hours of suffer-
ing while a physician is awaited We do
not believe in depending implicitly on any
medicine for cure, but we do believe that
if bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea
Remedy were kept on hand and Admin
istcred at the inception of an attack much
suffering might ne avoided and in very
many cPscs the presence of "A physician
would not bc required. At least this has
been our experience during the past TWEEN
