The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-05-18

Mayor Hunt deserves to be COM
mended for his veto Of the theater or
the proprietors or lessons of play
houses. Walla Walla has no theaters
that are not worthy of patronage by
the best people and there was no just
reason for the attempt to hamper their
business by extortionate license
charges.

Lincoln on the Circuit
Following the Court About was
One Of the joys of the Coun
try Lawyers Life

Following the court about on the
circuit was, no doubt, the Joy of
Lincoln's life. He was so fond of
il that he declined a fattering offer
10 enter lucrative law-partnership
in Chicago because as he contended
it would necessitate more or less
confinement in the Office and there
fore keep him off the circuit.
Seated in one horse buggy, be-
hind a sorry looking horse, he
would set out for Springfield to be
gone weeks at a stretch. The law
yers as he drove into each Success
sive place, eargerly anticipating a
new stock Of stories. gave him a
cordial welcome, and the landlords
hailed his coming with delight,
for he was one of the most patient
and uncomplaining Of guests. IF
every other fellow relates one of
his colleagues, "grumbled at the
indifferent accommodation and
scant fare which greeted us at
many of the dingy taverns we
struck, Lincoln said nothing" His
forbeaTanca in this regard we'll war
rants the observation he is said OH
one occasion to have made, that he
never so completely felt his OWL
unworthiness as when he stood face
to face with a real live hotel clerk.
Howheappeared on the circuit may
be CLEANED from this sketch of him
drawn by Henry c. Whitney who
is yet living; His hat was brown
faded, and the nap usually worn oil
rubbed off. He wore a short Goa
aud sometimes a shawl. His coal
and vest hung loosely on his gianr
frame. His trousers were invara
bly, too short. In one hand he
carried a faded green umbrella Will

The Bachelor Girl Reflects

One Of the things that woman
with brains never gets used TO is
the case with which the woman
without them commonly gets along.
A divorce lawyer says there are
from 500 to 900 families in New
York in which the husbands and
wives never speak to each other.
Who.would have supposed that wo-
men would have had sense enough
10 avoid divorces i'll that way9
Men have always had a great
deal to say about the inability Of
woman to keep a secret. Perhaps
it is because their private lives
have not trained them to the neces-
sity.
Marriage has some resemblance
to cards. Hearts and diamonds
are both involved, clubs sometimes
come into the game, and unless the
divorce court intervences, spades
are trumps al last.
A Chicago university professor
has informed his class that flirting
is instructive. One wonders if nc
reached his conclusion by a process
of syllogistic reasoning, or just
found utby experience.
Only 9 per cent Of the womer
Of the United States over IA ar,
employed in gainfuI occupations,
while SO per cent of the men are sC
employed 1t would seem thai
the SO per cent might let the 9 PEI
cent work without grumbling any
more about taking mems jobs.
A woman always has one stand
ing grievance against a man. Wher
she wants a good CRY She has to sit
down to it; while he can swear il
lany position. New York Times.

A feeling of hesitancy was manifested in

influences had started an active general
demand for wheat that resulted in a quick
