' Eastern elections from next Tuesday, prospects are hopeful. one week Republican The Philadelphia Enquirer sayf Blaine is in the hands of his friends, and that he 'and Harrison were never on better terms. Mrs. Allen G. Tiiurman died Saturday, at Columbus, Ohio, at the ripe age of 80 years. She has twice been married, the first time to Mr Tompkins, of Louisville, 'Kentucky. The chartered car idea from Corvallis to the World's Columbi an Exposition has been dispensed with, from present silence on the subject, about it? Why don't you talk How about the oannery ques tion? It is a matter of vital im portance, and should receive more than passing attention. A can nery in Corvallis will mean mar vels. ' Corvallit is becoming progres sive. To enlarge on this, progres sion we must do something to in vite the attention of moneyed men in this direction. Capital and in dustry are especially essential. Gen. Miles, in his annual report, recommends that the national guard of the coountry be mobilized or assembled at the World's Co lumbian Exposition in '93, and that congress make an appropria tion to pay the cost of transporta tion. Twenty years night last, Mrs. ago on Friday O'Leary's cow kicked over the lamp which set fire to Chicago, which burned up the city' and which caused it to be rebuilt in its present solid manner. It is not often that a - great fire brings forth such good results. Lieutenant Schwatka's report of his Alaska tour, confirms other reports made by preceding explo rers. The country has magnificent forests -and vast mineral wealth, but the rivers are unnavigable, and it will require the building of rail roads before the country can be developed. Geover Cleveland, in a speech the other night before the New York Democratic Club, remarked: .-"I am a 6ort of Cassandra in political matters." Out here the .Democrats, considering the cam paign of 1888, look upon him not only as a Cassandra, but as a hoodoo.- V .

The dispatches announce ' the capture of Constantihpple by the Russians, wliose strategic advance upon that city has startled the rown-heads of all Europe. With 12,000 Cossacks and 22,000 infant ry, they seized the railroad along the coast from Constantinople to Iniada, immediately crossed the Coast range and took another railroad leading from Constantino-, pie to Sofia. According to the Boston poll list the whole number; of women vho have qualified themselves to vote this year in the whole city is only 1589, as against 134,0S9 men. iast year there was .a flurry over the question of sectarianism in the public schools, and the number of women -on the polling list run up to 8292; .Jbut four-fiahs of these 292 do not feel interest enough hi the matter of good school man agement to qualify themselves for voting when this temporary ex-1 stiaent has passed. THE EASTERN ELECTIONS. - The progress of the campaign in Ohio does materially change the outlook for party prospects. There is nothing certain so far as the outcome is concerned, but 'the chances are decidedly in favor of McKinley's election by a decisive majority. If Ohio goes Demo cratic this fall there will riot be much chance for a Republican president in 1892. If MKinley's . majority is unusually small, this will still be an indication of Re publican weakness, and the Dem ocrats will unquestionably have I very favorable prospects. Should McKinley get 30,000 majority, which is the regular Republican vote, it will show that Ohio is still true to party principles and' party creed, atad that she is by no means a doubtful state in a year of vita! issues. If McKinley's ' majority readies 4U.U00, it will look like a veritable landslide, and will lend hopejto and increase encourag ment in party circles. We pre dict an unusual majority for Major McKinley. JNew lorK. will probably go Democratic this 'all. The bulk of the party, and the rank and file of its leadership, are a unit in fa vor of the state ticket. Ex-Presi dent Cleveland's presence and ac tive interest in campaign move ments, combined with the Hill clique, are sufficient to harmonize the Democratic factions, and Dem ocratic harmony in JSew York al ways means Democratic success. The prohibition plank in the Iowa Republican platform does not give much promise for the success oi the party this year, but that state will prove true in 1892: Massa cnusetts ugures largely this year as important to national issues, The "state, being strongly manu facturing, wants tree raw materi als, and it has had democratic ten dencies the past four years. Here tofore, on National issues, Massa chusetts has-been largely republi can. Should Russell, Democrat, for governor, carry the state next month; it may be put in the doubt ful column for 1892, and the Dem ocrats will have a fighting chance If Allen is elected by a decisive majority, it will be safe to count on that state as usual, for a bi Republican majority. One thing is certain: The result of the fall elections this year will settle presidential possibilities, so far as party creeds are concerned, in 1892, and if the Democratic party meets with reverses, it will lose al! hope for future success, If, on the contrary, the Republi can party does not gain material ly from last year's reverses, it will be an evident indication of dead ed weakness. The Republicans can lose considerable ground . and still be successful next year, while the Democrats will have to come out with extreme gains to have.a fighting chance in the next presi dential election. Wait till the votes come in. ' An agent for some sort of "far mers' and merchants' alliance" with headquarters in Portland, is "working" this section, says the Statesman. The scheme is to charge a membership fee, which entitles members to purchase goods "cheaper" than from home merchants. Of course the "suck ers are not all dead yet, and this agent will harvest a part of the crop; but people with ordinary horse sense will dismiss him very suddenly. The local business men of Oregon's towns charge no membership fee : for purchases made of them at prices lower and more satisfactory than can be guaranteed by some "alliance," baited for .suckers." . About three years ago a Michi gan man disappeared, and soon af terwards the body of a man who had been murdered was found and identified as that of the missing man. The family, buried it. Some time ago they received' a letter from an Indiana hospital for the insane, savins that the missinrr man Jiad been admitted to that in stitution. He soon recovered , his reason, and recently returned to his people, nis mind is- a blank regarding his life up to the time -he was taken to the hospital - ABOUT BRAZIL. The'Bureau of American Repub lics has just issued Bulletin No. . 7, entitled ''Brazil.'? ' It is a very well gotten up volume of 336 pages, well printed and illustrated. Its contents embrace a historical sketch of Brazil, with- information in compact lorm as to its area, population and political divisions; colonization and immigration; forestry and mineral resources; ag ricultural products; railway and steamship communication, finan ces, taxation and educational sys tem; commercial advantages and methods; reciprocity arrangements with the United States; commer cial statistics; the constitution of the republic; a commercial direc tory, and the tariff duties of Bra zil. . - From the constitution we find that Brazil is in advance of the United States in that she provides an educational limitation to citi zenship. That instrument requires that persons ignorant of the alpha bet shall vote at either federal or siate, elections. It also excludes from voting all beggars, and all members of communities of any religious denominations who are subject to vows of obedience, etc., which imply the surrender of in dividual liberty. This prohibition includes all soldiers on pay. The Brazilians are determined that none but free men shall vote, and that they shall be moderately in telligent at least. ' For several years past the Do minican republic has been main taining in its tariff a free list of articles for the special encourage ment of its agricultural industries. By the terms of its recent recipro city arrangement with the United States the free list was to be abolished for all -countries except the United States when the reci procity treaty went into effect. In accordance with this agreement the president of San Domingo, under date of August 8, has pub lished a decree abolishing this free list, and restoring all articles named in it to the rate of duties fixed in the general tariff, which is an average of 60 per cent ad valorem. By this action the reci procity treaty i3 greatly increased in value for the United Slates. The article on this free list em braced among others all classes of machinery, tools and inplements for the development of agricul tural and industrial establish ments, tallow and oil for machi nery, guano and manures," zinc and galvanized iron, cooperage, sacks of sugar, railroad material and equipment, barbed wire and coal. In addition there was a list of articles admitted at a duty of 10 per cent, ad valorem, which had also been raised to the full tariff rates, embracing wood and lumber of all kinds, shingles, files slate, and all other' materials for roofing; bricksr flagstones, cement, iron, steel and copper, in sheets or bars, nails and screws, tubing of iron, copper or- lead, cordage, wagons, carts, wheelbarrows, Doats ana lighters. General Butler's forthcoming book will be one of the largest Historical auiooiograpnies ever published. It will contain about one thousand large pages, printed upon high grade paper and illus trated with several hundred .'wood engravings. It will be pnblished in English, German, and French. The best artists are now employed on the work. The Dickinson type foundry is casting type especially for it. The typoiiraDhv and mess- work will be by the'Barta Press of w . v A.
