There Is no evidence that Receiver Joe Simon received any of the bonuses given Mr. Steele along the line. Tin managers of the Union Pacific railroad have thoroughly sucked this lemon dry. It bears a debt of $250, 000,000, on which its net income will not pay interest . Now the government, that for years has played the fool with the millionaire wreckers, can take it. A great difference. In July, 1890, H. II. Johnson, clerk of Clackamai county, officially reported that the in debtedness of the county was $40,000; last month the grand jury expert re ported that it was $123,000. A big dif ference. Every voter should meditate on these figures. The Tomahawk, Portland's bright new democratic weekly, thus makes its bow to the public in No. 1, Vol. 1: t'We stand on the, Chicago platform with the heel corks so far imbedded in the planks that there will be no oppor tunity of moving. It will be our aim to help in the work of making the state of Oregon democratic." Bum and religion, though contrail ic tory, are rapidly civilizing the natives of Africa. In one place one missionary and (50,000 barrels of whisky were landed at the same time. From Junu ary 1,1800, to January 1, 1801, there were 1,018,501 gallons of rum shipped from Boston to Africa.

With both Gaston and McMahon tug ging at the governor's scalp lock compli cations among the populist leaders assume a humorous turn. Ir the city council could for cause an nul the franchise of the East Side Hail way Company (n this city and tear up it) track, unless it agreed to give a goodly sum to the city ennually, it would be a wlMllall to Oregon City. Now it is the means of taking thousands of dollars to Portland merchants that but for this road would be spent here. If the com pany does not pay its Main Btreet aSHees ment its line within the city could be attached and sold. Then the motor line would lie "in the soup." Tub American AgriculUrhl says noth ing could be farther from the truth than the oft-repeated statement that "nine tenths of our farms are mortgaged for all they are worth." It says the census of farms, homes and mortgages taken in 1800 sliows that three-quarters of all the farms in the United States are owned free of incumbrance, and only one-fourth of the total number of farms in the United States is mortgaged. Or, to ex press it more specifically, out o.' evory hundred American farms, more than 70 are fully paid for and lens than 30 are mor tgaged. Tim economics of tho saloon ijueHtion were presented In an interesting manner at Worseator, Mass., by a committee which has been making a thorough In vestigation, visiting saloons, question ing proprietors, h.u keepeis and patrons, and procuring information from oilier sources. There are 80 saloons in the city, the rent of which ranges from $.'150 to $1500, with an average of $800; bar tenders are paid from $1) a week and board to $23, and Incidental expenses average In the larger places $30 a week ; and there is besides the license fee, which for the 80 saloons this year amounts to $118,300. This lust sum may he considered what the liquor truf fle pay to the citizens. On the oilier hand, as nearly as can be estimated, the citizens pay to each saloon $30 a day, or fully $1,200,000 a year-tun times the amount of the license fees As showing the money-making capacity of a popular saloon, a bank president told of a saloonkeeper who borrowed $1000 to pay Ills license fee, giving a mortgago on his house, and paid off the mortgage in three and a half months s&vimt that he had also paid for his stock and lived well in tho meantiintt.

In 1856 a prize was offered (or the best model of a ship made by any one in the United Kingdom, and the models were on view at the Royal In stltotion. The rrlse was awarded to a model six times the beam to the length, and ten times the depth to the length these being the same proportions as of Noah'a Ark. In the list of the breadstuff which are transferred to the free list tn the Wilson tariff bill Is oatmeal. The McKinley act imposed a duty of 1 cent a pound, and the domestic manufacturers com bined to take advantage of consumers by means of this impost. While they were asserting that they needed the protection of this tax on oatmeal from abroad, they were exporting great quan tities of American oatmeal and selling it in all parts of the world, in open competition with the foreign product with which they asserted that they could not compete hern at home. In the year 1802 they exported neurly 21,000,000 pounds. Under the pro visions of the Wilson bill they will have no protective duty to be used by a com bination as an "instrument of greed," Ons of the most wonderful exhibits at the World's Fair was a type-sotting machine working with such marvelous rapidity that it promises to revolutionize the printing business.

Live Stock Poluta. Boiled down, the latest knowledge about breeds of chickens is this: If you want fowls for eggs only, get Rose Comb Leghorns. Any Leghorns are good layers, but the hideous, wabbling, blinding flap pers of the single combs freeze in a cold climate and are enough to give a nerv ous person St. Vitus' dance besides. If you want to raise market fowls for broilers and roasters, get Plymouth Rocks and Wyaudottes. For a heavy general purpose bird, the Light Brahma is the breed. So says a poultry expert. Where cuttle are housed in a warm Btable at night and turned out upon snow and ice on a freezing day they take cold and get pneumonia and consumption precisely as human cuttle would do if treated in a similur way, Develop the fast walking guit of draft and farm horses. Much depends on this, and it can be educated into heavy horses. If a tithe of the trouble were taken to bring out the walking gait of work horses that the trotter and runner get in training for their particular movements, the farmer would be well repaid. Breed workhorses for walking speed. Train a colt to walk quickly and steadi ly on from the beginning without any looting. A farmer finds that Bkimmilk is worth 80 cents a hundred pounds when used to produce pork at present prices. A hog breeder has observed that bows never eat their young at the time of year when green rood Is plenty. When green fodder is scarce, it can be replaced by turnips and the various kinds of root crisis, Professor Stowart believes in cooking rood for hogs. He says: "By good man' agement fie general feeder may reach with ruw corn 8 pounds, with raw meal 10 pounds, with boiled corn 13 pounds and with boiled meal 15 pounds of live pork per bushel. But many other doc tors doubt whether cooking hog feed pays. Let every man try it and decide for himself. In wet seasons the flow of milk is abundant, but the fluid itself contains less than its normsl per cent of solid.
