r-ti HUSTLER OF ROME, SUNDAY NOVEMBER 18, 1894
A curious case of house moving
was recently witnessed in Oregan.
A man who owned a residence at
Seattle, which cost linn $5,000 to
erect, moved to Olympia and did
not have sufficient funds to built
another house. He bought a lot
and concluded to move the build
ing he owned at Seattle. Everyom
laughed nt him, but he persisted,
i Rolling the house down to the rivei
he leaded it upon a scow and it was
oon at Olympia, a distance of
i about sixty miles. Then he had ii
rolled upon his lot. and strange to
say, rot a timber was strained, noi
even a piece of furniture’ broken,
although he had not removed the
contents before starting the house
upon its unusual journey.—The

A CHIVALBOI'S MEAS! RE
Senator Roberts, of the 20th,
district, has introduced a bill m
tne senate, which has passed tlu't
body, making it a penal offense
or any person to make remarks or
write articles that reflect on the
good name of a woman.
This is a measure that appeals
pi the chivalry of every gentleman
in the state. While it is not neces.
sary for t’: is clues to be res’ rained
by legislation’, there are am; mber
of vulgarians who stand on stree t
corners and in public places
comment ou the ladies that pass,
in such away as to provoke the
vigorous application of the cow
hide, in addition to deserving a
term in the chaingang.
It is well to protect our women
from the foul tongues of such men
as these, and the bill in point will
do much towards stopping these
slander mills. All such should be
taught a lesson by the manhood of
the state, .and the law itself
should be appealed to in order
that they may becloth-ed with the
only garb that is fitting Jo such
reflections on gentility.
We congratulate the young sena
tor from the 20th. district on the
manliness displayed in the con
ception of such a measure, and
i hope that it will find no trouble
l 1
in being promptly enacted into
I law by the house.
This bill is a good one, and the
1 house can do no better thing than
1 to give it unanimous endorsement.
