Col. W. c. Painter Dead.

Mr.. and Mrs. d'Ablaing were called
to Walla Walla on Tuesday last by the
death of Mrs. d'Ablaing's father, Col.
w. G. Painter, of Walla Walla. Col.
Painter came to Oregon in 1850 and in
1856 joined the Oregon volunteers to
fight in the Indian war of that year.
For bravery in this campaign the flag
of the company was given him by his
company, and has ever since been a
most valued relic. At the time of the
Nez Perez or "Joseph war" Col. Painter
was made captain of Walla Walla
company, who patroled the Columbia
river on gunboat, and prevented Nez
Perez Indians from joining the Moses
band of Simcoe and Yakima Indians
in which case this and the Yakima val
ley would have been laid waste, and
the people massacred. Old settlers OF
this valley will well remember the ex-
element OF those days, and the gather
ing OF families in improvised forts for
protection. Col. Painter has held many
positions of trust, was revenue collector,
receiver of the L, S. land office and
auditor for many years at Walla Walla,
filling all these positions with credit.
He leaves to his ten children the heri-
tage OF good and honorable name,
the record OF blameless, upright life,
and the memory OF kind and loving
father. He was brother OF Mrs. d.

Half score of Indians, yelping in

crowd of sightseers at Chicago park
one night recently as they raced to-
ward merry -go-round On which they
were to have ride. The great swing
was standing vacant awaiting it's noisy
passengers as the crowd gathered
around it. The bucks mounted the
horses, while the squaws scrambled
into the box seats with as broad a
grin upon their faces as their stoicism
would permit. When the whistle tooi-

made in giving their war dance began.
Around the ring they rode. leaning
forward on the necks of the wooden
horses or swinging at the side so that
they narrowly escaped number of
hard knocks several times as they
swept past the outer supports. Each
warrior tried to Guido the other in
feats of craftsmanship. While one rode
beneath his horses neck with his legs
wrapped around the swaying figure.

mount and rode standing. Another
stood over two horses. rocking up and
down with the motion of the swing.

Don't Be OVer-Confident.

A timely warning to the democrats
of the Ninth District is necessary at
this time. There is danger that un-
der the circumstances the republicans
will rally to the support of General
Walker and out of sheer revenge
make an extraordinary effort to elect
him, and if they do not succeed, will
make it hot and lively for Mr.. Rhea
If there is any dissatisfaction in the
republican ranks, to amount to any
thing, it has not yet made its appear
ance. And, remember too, there are
other issues in this campaign, on
some of which democrats are divided,
and taking everything together it
seems to us that a note of warning is
not out of place. but highly proper
at this time. There will be no donbt
as to the defeat Of Walker, provided
the democrats do not allow their
confidence to defeat them. There
ought to he thorough organization
and work. The republicans are or
gained, as they always are, and will
make an extraordinary effort to elect
their ticket, not because they love
Walker more. but because they love
Rhea less.-Clinch Valley News.
