A WoHDtart'L FaCAr-x. A singular accident happened Wednesday at Cris Simpson's place near Helix. Mr Himp son, Robert Watson and H Hendrickson, a young man twenty-one years old, were engaged in cleaning out a well. Hen drickson stepped on a board and slipped, falling Into the well, feet foremost. It was eignty-two icei to trie uotiom, snu his companions, thinking sural y the young man could not have escaped death, set abont with sad hearts at preparing to raine him to the surface. Suddenly from the depths came a voice: "Whv don't you send down a rope?" Tl.e sur prised men alove replied: '"We wero getting ready to do so. and thought you were dead." "1 don't think I'm hurt a bit," was the response. Soon a rope was lowered, which Hendrickson attached to his body. He was drawn up about ten feet and asked to be lowered again to secure nisiiat. Ho was then hauled to the ton and found to bs entirely uninjured, with tne exception ol a alight scratch tn ine face. It was certainly a miraculous escape. E O.

The Ashland Record says: John W rlmith, the farmer who lives on bticky was hero attending the Alliance convention.

What the rail road company tailed to squeeze out ot them was sapped out by the euchreing tricke of the oil company. This year he will place his fieldi mostly in corn. Mr Smith thinks it is high time for the far mors to do a little thinking for them selves. Wonderful- Soil. The following from aa exchange speaks for the wonderfu durability of Willamette valley soil made so by our prolific rains: FX Mat thieu still owns the land in Marion county, between Butteville and Aurora where the first crop ot wheat grew that was ever raised in the northwest. This piece of land Illustrates the richness of Marion county soil, for it has grown 75 crops of wheat in 76 years, and still pro duces 35 bushels to tho acre. The wheat grown on this land, if spread on the sur face, would occupy as great a depth aa the soil has been cultivated. (jattle, itc, Ls uhkgon.

HOW MUCH SHODDY. Merchants and consumers would gap lthey know how much shoddy MciCin Icy put In "alb wool" goods. A practical der, Mr P M Street, whose occupation In finishing woolen fabrics gives him an opportunity lo know Iho In side of the business, wtHciln a communi cation lb tho WorU, September 15. as fol lows: "It Is past belief the amount of shoddy lhatU In goods sold as all wool, and parties bringing such goods to us frt quenlly get Indignant when told It is shoddy, for when bu)lng tl.ry were told It was a fine article and sold for such. I tell youj It wuuld surprise the people and ditgutt klum If It was possible for them lo reallxehow little wool enters Into a to-esllcdall-wool suit Even tho merchants would gsp. There Is aa argument started now, to set! thl mixture, thst It msVrs tho good stronger to put cotton la it. A bae lie, a everyone knows, wro lis worn tne goods, that lis color soon turns rusly, dull and muddy, and Hi first damp ness draws h oot of shape... It Is anost Impotslbio lo boy a good suit the la', few years." The Dobtons, leading carpet manufact uiers of Phllsdilphls, are reported as su thwlty for the estimate thst of 55,000,000 pound of carpet material uc In thl country 10,000,000 are clean wool (equiv alent to 37,000,000 of raw wool.) ioono, 000 are shoddy and 35,000,004 other mixture. The Uoston Commtrriai HJtrtin an extreme protection journal, ,eklng of the carpet manufactured Philadelphia, In In June, 1889, said "That city turns out the chespekt carpets, both In grade and pike. In the country, being a very large consumer of cow hair, the chesp subttl ttute for wool." A petition presented by the working men of Philadelphia, largely employes In tho woolen Industry, to tho Fiftieth Con ' grett reported that Ingrain carpet, largely ued by the ininn, and which were form erly made targety of wool, are now made of an average of one-fifth wool and four fifth adulterants, and thst In the whole carpet Industry of the country probably not a million pound ot Jomettlc wool are ucd,the ue of cheap.coarse foreign wools, bct adapted for the manufacture of carpet and which are not grown In this country. being greatly rettricled by the tariff, and which restriction, although onerous before lS.o, i, greatly lnoeaed under the Mc Klntey act, namely, from 34 and 30 per cci.t adjva'o'cmt o 23 and 50 per cent. And here we fl'id a probable explanation of the ui u f4d that, white claiming to make more carpet than any other country, we were able to export or sell to foreigner In $89 only 5,670 ysrJ,whlle Grest Britain, the same year, with her tree-wool policy, exported 13,000,000 yard. How such an experience likely to be remedied any degree by the negotiations of trestles of reciprocity or the maintenance of a high-wool tariff I L...JL -U UOlriTBY ITS OWN l ETAUD. fho New York I'm, referring to a statement msde In the London Timtt to the effect that there was a let amount ot tin exported from England to the United States In November 1S01, than In Nov- mbcr iSyxi, says: ft 1 a slngulsr fact that among the three great Items which the Timet cites a in stance of England's decresto In export Is Included tin plate, which It has been as serted In every democratic and mugwump free trade paper In the United States for months, and Is still aueited In their col ums. Is not and cannot be manufactured In this country. As "the proof of the pud ding lies In the eating," so tho proof of ny trade ptoble-n lies in '.he selling and buying. The 1'irtt has demontrated lime and again that tin plate Is being man- fact ured commercially In the United States by a Urge number of firms, and that many other firm are entering Into the buslncts, but It welcomes the proof from that ancient free trade organ, the London Timet, that the united Mates is buying from Giest Brltlan only one half the qusntlty of tin pities per month that It did uciurc inc jucsvinicy mw went imu titr ation, as the best proof that we are kecp- ng our home market for tin plate for home manufacturers. In tl e same lue of the Ptut under the hesd of "Tariff Pictures" appears the stale merit that ' In 1S01 the United States pro duced 133,366 pound of tin." Thl I equal lo 55 tons of tin. This is leu than one ton to every million of inhabitants In the Un ited States. This production ol tin, ac cording to such high protection authority at the 1'test, equ.ils our ami a It'll tons ftx monlk. Doe any one for a moment sup pose that the placing of 4 tons of Amer ican manufactured tin on the market would make any appreciable difference In the amount of importations? The real reton why Importations are lest Is because, that, after the McKlnley duty had passed and before It went Into effect. Importers tripled their orders In order to get in a arge supply which would escape the Mc Klnley duty. This supply has not all been consumed, and Importations are not necessary until ll Is. That's all ConuTOfwrnon llolman of Indiana, chair man of tho appropriation committee has in troduced a resolution declaring it to be the judgment of thehouse that the granting of subsidies, or bounties by congreiia in public moneys, bonds, or by a pledge of the public credit to promofasriecial privato industries or enterprises independent of constitutional power 0 congress, is unjust, impolitic and in manifest conflict with the spirit of repub lican institutions. The resolution further resolves that in view of tho present condition of tho treasury, and. because efficient and henest government can only be assured by a frugal expenditure of the public money. while unnecessary and lavish expenditures lead inevitably to venal and corrupt methods no money ought to be appropriated by con gross, except such as is manifestly necessary to carry on the several departments frugally. efficiently and honestly admimstered. This stirred np the republican members who were members of the lost or "billion dollar congress." and Read was so much moved that he actually opened . his mouth and spoke a half dozen words loud enough to be heard across the aisle from him. The most significant thing is that republicans in congress are using all their powers to thwart the demoorats in their effort to econ" omize in publio expenditures. They raise a hue and cry about the above resolution, hut every man who feels the weight of taxation increasing will endorse the spirit and pur hose of the resolution.

In all books on geography published during the latter part of the last century and the first two decades of tho present It was plainly stated thst Chlmhorazo, a peak of the AnJcs In Old Peru, (now Ecucjdor,) alili an attitude of 31,430 feet, was the most lofty peak In tho world. The reputation of Chlmborszo received a severs shock whan Mr Penttand, a BrltUh scien tl t, began his explorations In the Uollvlan Andes, where be soon found two peaks, Sorato and Illlmatil, wluue respective al Itude were 34,000 and J 3,000 feet. , Out, while Mr Pentland was making his hUtorlc observations la the Andes, others with observing mind were exploring the cloud-clapped pesks of the Ifimslayas and meanurliig the heights of the principal summit. l'iH pciA iA Miat chain were measured, none ot which wriu lc than 30,oio feet In height.

It la a matter of far less Importance who shall be the candidate of the demo cratic party for pictldcnt, than the select ion of the Imucs upon which the csnvsss shall be made. If the party should hest tste on the great vital iue of opposition lo protcctionUm, It would be a matter ot no concei n w ho ihould be the candidate e would be defeated. The great man of the people admire common honesty and party Integrity. Thcte with common fi delity require that the party should bo steadlatt In It well known views on this question. The party I ttrongcr today than at any time since the war. Its recupera tion of ttrcng'.h !nce Its defeat In 1688 has been remaikaVle. The common observer knows thst the teciet of this wonderful 1 accumulation of strength Is attributable to the unswerving devotion of the democratic pre of thl country to the great vita question of tatifl reduction. In the face ef detest In i&VS, the democratic papers of the country wl'.h the zeal and purpose of untelfUtt men, rained aloft the banner of tariC reduction, and ha kept I'. In the breexe ever since. In selecting a candl late, only a few requitites are necewsry. Is be a demociat? It he honest? Is he competent ? 1 he a tariff for revenue only man? I be the strongcit man? The man that f.llt the bill as above should be nominated. I it I!l;l? then nominate him. Is It Cleveland? then nominstehlm. Is It Gorman? Palmer? Boles? Paulson? Rutsell? then nominate the one who m wcrs to ah thekc requisites best. The Democrat will support the one just as cheerfully as the other If he fills up the mcssure of the above requirements. AN 01' TRACE The projioised ffcrrj-nmndor of tho con gresNional district in Ohio is a diiiHy. The I'laimJeaJ'.r of Unit stale says: A map of the state contaiiunir the dis tricts marked out accordinir to the Carpen ter plan is a spectacle that would make the most skillful gerrymandcreni of other states pmn with envy. 1 here is not a district in it that nuvU tho conditions of compact ness and symmetry which some republicans professed to desire. The pmiter number of the district twit and wiggle as if each port was trj-inir its hardest to eel away rom the rent, lieeatifie a&hamed ot its com pany. Somo of the aismcw are tiiujrrant evasions of tho requirements of United States law thut each district shall be com- pomil of contiguous territory. The third uiBtrict is made up of part of Hamilton and the counties of 1 rtbk Isntler, V arrcn. Greene and Fayette. Markintr out that district on the map it will be found that the iiVHt two counties are connected wun urn others by a narrow belt at tho -comer of aiTen and Ureen. 1 he fourth district is Montgomery, Clarke and Madison. There is just room euough to drive a load of hay over the liimturo connectinir the Montiroin- ery end of the district with the "contiguous territory of the remainder of the district. In tho twelfth district .Lawrence county can hold communication by a narrow patwnpo way with Jackson and through it with Pike, Vinton, Rosa and Pickaway. This gerrymander will give the 400,000 democrats in that shite 4 members of con gress, and the 420,000 republican j 17 mem bers. Ono hundred thousand democrats get one member, and ono hundred thousand republicans get four members. If the pres ident was actuated by lofty motives of pa triotism and fair dealing when he called the attention of congress to the ."Michigan scheme," lie will now send a message to congress calling the attention of that body to the outrageous scheme which his breth ren in Ohio are about to fasten upon the neorjla of that stato. But will he do it? Nary a time. IT WAS A MISTAKE. Readers of the Democrat remember that thl paper took exceptions to the ad vice elven bv Senator Hill in his Elmira speech on the tariff and sliver questions. The New York World which is very friendly to the senator Is publishing ex tracts from leading democratic pspers all over the country taking the same view of the speech. " Such papers as the Indianapolis ni- nel, Wheeling RemsUr, Salt Lake Tribune, Wilmington (N Q Star, Helena Jmepend- tut, Kansas City Tims, St Louis SefM'c, Raleigh (N C) Slate Chrom'clt and scores of others are outspoken In their opposi tion to this policy of do-nothing proposed by Senator Hill. The senator will very- toon modify his speech. The members of the Maryland legislature have been polled for presidential preferen ces with thejfollowihg result: Cleveland,.46 and Gorman 52. Of course many prefer Gorman simply because he is a resident of that state. ; As against any other candidate than Gorman, Cleveland would have live- sixth of thatbody. . - A fine line of crockery ware at Conn & uendricsrm s. , nescBATic rvawiTTEis mietivu. , The Democratic County Central com luitlee ia ln-rebv called to meet' at the Dkmocrat office, In Albany, Oregon, on Friday, January ZUtb. 1892. at 10 o'clock a m, to fix tho time ami place for lidding the county democratic convention to elect delegates to tho state convention and to nominate a county ticket, and to perform anch other duties as may prop erly come before the committee.
