CoLvLLE, WASH, April 3, 1906.
ED. REPUBLICAN:-M March 9TH we left
West Hickory, Pa, for the state of Wash.
ington and arrived at Colville, Wash.
March 10th, at about two o'clock p. m.
was little surprised to find the weather
so cold. The temperature was nearly
zero. The people all claim it was the
worst there has been this winter, or that
they ever knew at this time of wear.
Tuesday morning, March 18th, 1 started
out to look for claim on government
land. l found the country quite billy,
being about the same as Pennsylvania
along the Allegheny river, running lit
tie more to round peaks, with few
mountains in sight. After travelling over
these hills for about three days l located
homestead on the Pend Oreille river.
My claim takes in the great Trilby Fall,
one-half mile on each side of the river,
with fall of about one hundred and fifty
feet, including one leap of seventy feet.
This is a narrow stream fed by numer-
Gus small lakes about twenty miles above
the falls. The falls are about fourteen
miles from Colville.
There is plenty of timber here, mostly
Oregon pine, fir and tamarack, with some
cedar, There is still plenty of land for
settlement but it is going fast. The soil
seems to be deep and rich. The weather
is fine now. expect to ue settled on my
claim in week. W. A. HUGHES.

Body of FlOater is Identified.

The body of the man found floating in
the Allegheny river at East Brady Sun
day afternoon of last week, was exhumed
and identified as that of Fowler Camp
bell formerly assessor in Fairview town
ship, Butler county. The Campbell
family, hearing of the matter and learn
ing OF some close points of resemblance
to the missing man, asked that the coffin
should be raised. The identification was
found by means of scars on the right foot
and the chin, and pocket knife. Camp.
bell disappeared last November. 1t is
supposed that he committed suicide while
temporarily insane. If this is true it is
not at all likely that he had been in the
water since last November, else there
could scarcely be any Identification. II
it was case of suicide by drowning the
probability is that Campbell had been
wandering about until few weeks ago.

There has been revival in Titusville
of the movement to commemorate the
first oil we'll by erecting monument on
the site. The Titusville Herald cham
pions the project and presents good ar
ments in its favor. The Drake well was
the beginning of the great industry, and
deserves to be kept in mind. because that
industry began the era of cheap, steady
light that has enormously advanced the
cause of popular education. Henry Ii.
Rogers has erected splendid monument
to Col. Drake in the Titusville cemetery,
but this does not mark the site of his
triumph. K. T. Hall, Esq, fluent
writer and an enthusiastic supporter of
the worthy cause, has given the Herald
some excellent articles on the subject, in
which the oil producing industry of the
whole world is more or less interested
"A death of peculiar sadness, and one
which has cast gloom over the COM
munity in which it occurred, was that OF
Mrs. Beatty, wife of Frank II. Beatty,
of Endesvor, Pa, on Friday evening last,
aged 2S years. Her illness was of short
duration, lasting less than a week, but
was of a serious and painful nature from
the start, and failed to yield to treatment.
In the hope of saving the patient an
operation was performed by Drs. Nor
row, of West Hickory, and o'Day, of Oil
City, on Friday, but the progress of the
trouble-a ruptured bowel-had been so
rapid that there was no hope of restora-
tion. Mrs. Beatty was a woman of su-
perior excellence, greatly beloved by all
who knew her, and her taking thus in
the prime of life leaves an aching void
in large circle Of friendships. The hus-
band and two small boys, so suddenly
bereft of a loving wife and mother, have
the heartfelt sympathy of the whole COM
munity in this dark hour. On Monday
morning special train on the Hickory
Valley road brought the funeral party to
the west side, where the early p. r. K.
train was met, and the remains were
conveyed to Brookville, the former home
of the deceased, where the interment took
place.

''SOme weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife aud myself
contracted severe colds which speedily
developed into the worst kind la grippe

Mr.. J. S. Eleston of Maple Landing,

REBELLION AGAINST CONDITIONS.

Miss Elizabeth Magic, a stenographer
employed in Chicago at the usual pay
of such assistants, created sensation
last week by a public letter, in which
she voiced her yearnings and ambitions
and lamented that she was denied the
dearest rights of young womanhood
because of the chill of penury. Natur-
ally. and as she should have anticipat-
ed. she is overrun with letters. most of
which are Of the most questionable
character. She spends her days in tears
and rage now over these letters, and
declares:
Il offered to sell myself to the high
est bidder for the purpose of meeting
some person who could place me where
l belong in the ranks of the worlds
workers." she said with an angry ges-
ture. What had my appearance to do
with that?
Il don't want husband. don't
want a person who will interest himself
in me for personal reasons. l admit
seek an angel but l seek a financial
one. L ask nothing more than a fair
chance. / get $40 week as a stenog-
rapher now. That is no pay for a
woman of ambition. 1 wish to be con-
structive, not mere mechanical tool
for transmitting mans spoken
thoughts to letter paper"
This reveals a hopeless lack of har-
mony with the absolute conditions of
modern life. Miss Magic. like many
other women. entered the ranks of
workers, and proudly protested that she
wanted no favors or assistance except
what she rightfully earned. She prob
ably said. as other ambitious women,
that she was going to work her way
upward as a young man of her age
would. Instead of doing so she at once
begins to cIamor for things that her
brother worker would not expect at her
age. If her brother had entered an
Office at the same time he would have
been content with his $40 a week until
his abilities would have brought him
more, and would have denied himself
flowers and theaters and such other
luxuries until he could afford them.
That is what millions of young men are
doing to-day who will some day have
all that wealth can give them. But
Miss Magic wants her cake now along
with her hard work, which is one of
the impossible conditions. She thinks
that she is cruelty treated, but her sit
uation is absolutely the same, if not
better than millions of young men, in
Guiding those who have entered. this
professions and who will some day be
leading men. 1t takes a young lawyer
or doctor from 10 t. 20 years of the
hardest work with all manner of de-
NAL, before he achieves a place in his
profession where he can command leis-
ure and luXurieS.

LET Us HAVE AN APPEAL.

We respectfully submit that the SUI
preme Court of North Carolina should
make another guess. There is a loud
call for a Daniel to come to Judgment.
Not Senator Daniel. of Virginia. but
the Daniel whom old Shylock praised
so highly. The aforesaid court had
before it a case in which man sued
the railroad company for damages on
account of mental suffering occasioned
by the roads failure to deliver at the
appointed time the baggage of his in
tended wife. which contained the all
important wedding gown. The we'd
ding therefore had to be postponed. to
the intense grief of the prospective
bridegroom. The North Carolina court
ncnsuited the complainant. and in our
humble and lay opinion vi plated that
organic principle of our national being
which makes inalienable every mans
right to life. liberty and pursuit OF
happiness. In no way can man pur-
sue happiness so successfully as in
wedding the woman with whom he is
in love. and anything that bars or OBJ
structs this form of the pursuit of hap
piness is an invasion of the dearest
rights of freemen. and cheapens. if il
does not invalidate, all that our fore
fathers fought for on the bIood-stained
fields of Lexington and Monmouth. The
brief report of the case does not give
any of the details. and we are at a loss
to know the charms of the prospective
bride, and, therefore. the intensity OF
the anguish of the bridegroom at not
getting her at the appointed time. The
question occurs whether the plaintiff

On the other hand, perish the thought

brides are fair to look upon. and the
