An increase in the price of the neces saries of life should not occur until peo ple are able to meet it. As it is it seems to be trying to keep ahead of the pros perity wave. Re.'. Irwin, state superintendent, en tirely ignores the resolution requiring him to account for the fees of his office. It seems tbat in addition to bis salary he has been appropriating a large amount uf fees, no doubt following the illegal custom of the office, and does not pro pose to change his plans. The fees tor certificates should go into the state treas ury just as much as those of a county cleik working on a salary. But arbitra rily the reverend superintendent refuses to look at it tbat way. Some Pennsylvania sucker, having bought a block of groond in the "city" of "Liverpool, Tillamook county, writes to find out what it is worth, and is thas nnrwered by the Neualem Times : "The whole 'townsite' of Liverpool isnt worth two bits, and if yoa paid the smallest fraction - of a cent for it yoa were loeer that amount.

Oregonian. On these facts there is a great diversity of opinion. Only a few days ago a farm er remarked at tbe great devastating powers of tbe Chinese pbeaeant, a rap acious eater of everything of a cereal nature. As for income there is oaly a short period of a month when the bird can be sold in ths market and tbe farm er gets practically nothing. Ia tact only a few farmers bant pheasants.

From the Kansas City Times. Relief ia promised by a new syndicate of Eastern capitalists from all the ilia complained of by tbe patrona of electric ally propelled street cara. This they propot e to do by tbe substitution of tbe oompressrd air motor. This motor is sti'l comparatively undeveloped, but even io its present state it claims advan tages over the electric motor. It pro duces no noise, no scraping sound, no roar, and no smell. There Is no jarring or jolting in the running of the ear pro pelled by compresed air, and it ia less likely to break down and come to a standstill. What is most important, from the point of view of tbe stockholder, its cost, which ia eaid to be about tbe same as ;hat of the overhead trolley, promises to diminish in tbe near future. Charles Haines writing to tbe Bulle tin from Dawson City, gives the chances ot a strike around Dawson City in a nut shell. He says: "Tbia Alaska North west Territory told field is an old prize drawing proposition that I ran liken to nothing that admits of a bettor compari son than a lottery. A number of spots are selected on tbe creeka and the rivers and for one year tbe miner labors. The year closes, the water runs and the sea- ou's output barely pays expenses. Not two miles swav from tbe nnfortunate one works a mm who has taken from an uninviting bit of earth a sackful of gold. Tbe lucky one did not strike ths pocket because of his ability as a miner ; chance favored him, and tbat was all. In short, tbe miner guessei at it and locates any ; and everywhere. In 19 cases out of 20 be misses it, and has to wait another' year for a new trial. . ver ihe Chilkoot Pass. Not even the biggest dailies have a better Klondike bound correspondent than the K. O. ol Pendleton, In J E Latbrop. tie ia bright and entertain log. We give some extracts : Sunday, August IS. Summit of Chil koot Pass .6 :30 p m. Here we are at tbe top of the pass over, which thous ands are now struggling to go. I can see them scattered along down the can. yon below, slowly wending their way to ths top . Such an exhibition ot nerve and pluck I nver expect to see. Any one skeptical about tbfa apparently over enthusiastic enusion should put a pack on bla back and corns up here. He will then realize what it means to go to tbe top of Chilkoot pass with a load. I brought up a load of fire wood from two or three miles below tbe sum mit as there la not a piece ot timber there. This wood is now worth one dol lar a pound but is not for sale. We will therefore have a 150 camp fire to night. . To anyone who loves rugged and grand scenery, this trip would be ample compensation for the trouble of com ing. Such precipitous mountains ! Such t-e-Etadous mountain torrents! Such imm. ers of glaciers! We are far above dozens of glaciers and below as are the perpetual anowa tbat lie here jear after year, the fresh anow falling and falling and packing and packing until it ia a mass ot solid ice. We crossed them coming np, several. We camp (or the night here on the very top of the pass. We ars now nearly 8000 feet above where we were thie morning, at tide water at Dyea. Above us, on either side the pase, rise sharp peaks which are 3000 feet higher than we are. Here on the summit are encamped any number ot people, and one can find no more than three and one-half feet ol level ground for a bed. As some of ns are more than three and one-hait feet long, we naturally experi ence some difficulty in making comfort able ariaogementa for the o-ght. Among the Klondike! s who are here on the summit are Mr. and Mrs. F R Fancher, ot San Fraocuco, who came op from Portland on tbe steamer George W Elder. Mrs. Fancher a bright, refined womau, bas moved an amend ment to tbe onaional Question ol wo man's clothing and carried ber point. As ws toiled up tbe last ot the ateep pass, w were greeted with: "How do yoa do young gentlemen?' The voice was feminine and that was decidedly ideasant. but tbe attire was that of a man, corduroy pants, dock coat, jaunty cap, an outing shirt. Ia a few moments we were in tbe camp of Mr. and Mrs. Fancher, who were fellow passengers on tbe steamer Elder, "Won't yoa have a hot pancake? and some coffee and bacon ?" Wool J we? We would have anything under the stars in the shape of food that we could get at, and to have a hoi meal served at a woman a band way np here on the of Chilkoot pass just as the sua was preparing to sink behind ths craggy peaks, well. It was enough to make a fellow think of borne and some of its comforts. Laks LiSPEBMiX, Aug 17. I.asl even ing, I arri ved here with two Indians, tbe other eight being strung along the trail for miles. With these Iodiaos, I left Dyea Saturday evening, and kept with tbe two ti-be ones ail tbe time. I lad no trouble, as I saw others having. I treated each Indian with consideration and found tbat eourUay eoants with red skins ss with white people. The Indians carried from 150 down to 40 or SO, the 'atter amount being taken bv boys 13 years old. Hew those little-fellows ever came through ia more than I can under stand. Tbe pass is difficult even for s white man who carries nothiog. Bat 50 pounds on a 13 year old Indian boy's back and one would acarrely believe he eoold come through. A man came into camp last evening asd offered 12 for m meal, anything in tbe shape of grub. He could find no one to furnish it. I offered (50 for a whipsaw . There was no price won Id take it. People work so hard and experience such worritneot and anxiety in get'iog their goods over the trail that big prices constitute no temptation to sell. Just over there about 20 yards is a young woman, a bride, who with her husband it going to the Klondike. She came np on the steamer Elder from Portland, and bas won the admiration of all in camp for her pluck in coming this far. There are several ladies here bound for Dawson city, and one has her little 5 year old girl with her. Here in this group are Judge Onburn, of Seattle ; Egan, the well known prize fighter from Mon'ana; Mr West, repre senting Frank Leslie's publications; and one man whose name I have not learned who has 2000 gallons of whiskey buried in the sand here on tbe beach. It is worth something like 150 a gallon. He guards it with a Winchester. After an account of a trip to l-ake L-n dermae for a boat he says : lace Linderrcan again, IU::J a in Arriving here I find Jim Jacks in had come over yesterday and Dr Bratie to day, and all our goods are stilted an the trail. It looks like euc-eso, although something may happen yet to overturn plaos. Upon returning here to camp, I find tbat many have given op and will not go tL rough. Ili-re ia a very good way to look at it: "Frince Lulgi ia to be congratulated on climbing Mount St. Ellas, lie has no only solved the problem of the ezact height ot the mountain but that of the best thing to do with Idle princes- K he had not been engaged in risking his neck in this really laudable semi scientific enterprise he might have been fighting a duel or doing worse. It is long since any other priiice has done anything quite so meritorious." Great minds run in tbe same channel. The Cleveland plaindealer says: When wheat reached the dollar mark last week, the Plain Dealer at once gave warning to tbe people not to loose their bead on tbat account. It said that "to whatever point speculation may force np pricea there ia certain to be at some time a check and not unlikely a audden and serious slump, either temporary or per manent.

Y. j SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS I An Oregon rain can make iong faces when appearing at the wrong time. It baa done that thia week . Many people would like jnt enough rain and then have it stop ; but things are not run that way. Men who have been around a long tims say It is their experietice that yoa have to take things as they come. Everything so far this year lias worked gloriously for tbe farmer, and the Dkmo cbat predicts will continue to do so. Make the bet of things, whether rain or sunshine. A live sporting event in the Willam ette valley is the first day ot Chinese pheasant shooting under tbe law. Then the nimrod gets an early start with his shotgun and dogs and at break of day begins putting shot into the gameet bird In existence. Does he etoo when he kills twenty, as provided by las-. We have not seen the person yet who really believf 8 he doe ; but he ought to. Men successful at this ezhtlirating sport say that nothing under the sun seen is more enjoyable than pulling the trigger as one ot these plump and beautiful birds rises from hia hiding place and darta forward for liberty. Tbe man who doesn't bunt la not in the swim on September 1st. Even a Chinese pheasant bas rights. Tnis week tbe outing season practical ly ends. One man said to the Dkhockat man that the summer outing ot nimself and family saved doctor bil s the test of tbe year. While tbat is tough on the doctor it is no doubt a good thing, but certain'. y is not the experience of most people. It may be a fact, though, that the outing does benefit many, and particularly- the "youngsters," who come home built np in tan and plump lim.bs hungry enough to eat chips, and ready for a oite five times a dav. It is an interesting fact that some ot ths healthiest men hardly keow what an outing Is. Hop picking bas been under dilficul- ties. This bas alaajs been the missing link between 'work and play, half one ba't the o'ber, taken as a whole. Many people wait !or the hop season for their outing and then combine money xaking with the healthy vocation. It is an interesting fact that some times occurs tbat In the case of two people picking sids by side, one will pick two boxes while the other is filling one. But that is life. Some oeople can put in their best licks with their tongues wag ging aod some caonot. A California dentist this week Muted to Sx tbe teeth of a woman wearing bloomers. Foolish man, tooroiog idiot. Is this world to get a'oog jou nave to take people as tbey come, wbetLer in bloomers, ssailow tails, jacket, bonnet or hat. Tbe merchant ; bis goods to whoever applibs for tbem and akt for no letter of introduction or certificate of character, aod tbe man w ho gets along has to do about that in an burioe. He may very propetly display his prin ciple on anything and should do so mart ially ; but the lees he make a circus of himself the higher will hit opinions te egarded- Exaggeration seems to be the order of tbe day. This has been peculiarly noticeable in tte caee of Klondike mai lers. A (.ogget is altnott a mauntain, a freezeup is an $2 degree Lclow uro eirerteece, and so on. And tboee awful pictures in the illustrated journals, ex aggerated so as to become ridiculous, generally senseless In (heir cooceptioo, lacking point, chains of straw not hold ing together. Here's a man who has lassoed a lion by the ta.l, and then rides on a red seat on the end ot the rope a the animal chases him around tree, aod the rnpe aever slips from his tail, and tbe lion never cas cross lots. So it goe along tbe eoto-ed pages, all exag geration, no humor founded on fact. Scientific. A mole will starve to death ia a day or two if not fed. This greediness makes it raott valuabie ally against inects. Wasps are tbe most inveterate enemies of flies. Iteaomer eavs that he bas known one wasp to k:ll one thooscd flies ioa day. It rains Sn an average 208 days io tbe year io Ireland, about 150 in England at Kozan about ninety davs anJ In Sibe ria only sixty days. At sea level an 'hject one hundred feet high la visible a little over thirteen miles. If Gve hundred feet high it is visible nearly thirty miles. Many of the streets in Paris are lined with trees. If a tree dies another of the same kind, age and s;ss is brought from the State forests and put in its place The cost is tremendous, but Paris i the most beautiful of modern cities. Tbe mole's fore limb is enormously mu'cotar lor digging, in which they work with front paws turned edgewise toward tbe sun and palun outward, working from the median line toward either aide. The records of eighty-eight years show that tornadoes have a width of ten to 10.5G0 feet, a length of track of litre hundred yards to two hundred miles, aod a velocity progression of seven to one hundred miles an hour. The mole's entire body is so shaped that it easily works forward in a bur row. Its note is poin'ed and shaped very much like a hoof. He tapers off behind so as to offer a minimum of resis tance, aod to hia exquisitely a Mt fur ths soil doea not stick, ao that while at work in making hia burrow his body is always perfectly clean. Curious I-nets. When Catharine the Great of Russia became tired of ber loveis, as she gener ally did in a few weeks, she gave them a foreign appointment and advised them to travel, and tbey always traveled. In Lexington, Ky., there is a club the youngest member of which ia eighty nine yeara old. ill the others are over ninety. The club meets regularly for purposes of mutual improvement and social pleasure. Ths specie room on ocean steamships is usually sixteen feet Ion, ten feet wide and eight feet hi-h. U is formed of steel pistes a quarter of ah inch thick, with a steel thor, which haa a burgular proof combination lock . Hair brushes should never be lelt with tbe bristles up. They are admirable dust collectors. Furthermore, in these daysol r.retty and inexpensive toilet nteealla there are tew women who have notbruahea with more or less ornamen tal backs. Stop tbat Cough!

The people are getting some pretty good medicine for Klondi.jtia. The epidemic is undoubtedly losing ground. A Salem editor in order to give tte state ollicers knowledge of the lawa throws codes at their heads, certainly an emphatic way of doing it. A Marion county man who paid $11 80 tax last year, this year on tbe same as- seesretnt pays I5.(14. Tbat undoubted ly does not suit him.
