According to a bulletin recently
made-public by the census office,
Fortl&nd. Oregon, is the second
healthiest city in the United States
its death rate in 1900 being but
per ceDt, while that of St Jo
seph, Mo., the leading city, was 9.1
per cent. The bulletin gives the
mortality statistics during the cen
sus year in the states and territor
ies and the principal registration
cities. The total number of deaths
reported for the year was 1,039,004
as against M1.419 for 1S90. Per
haps the most important feature of
the. results presented is found in
the general dath rate in the regis
tration area of 1.8 per 1000 of pop
ulation, a decrease of nearly 10
jr cent The average age at death
in W was 31.1 years; in 1900 it
w is Ii.i.2 years. This is certainly
an encouraging report for the ad
vance made in medical science and

In the division of state offices
for the State of Oregon it is a well
known fact that the great Inland
Empire bus not been fairly recog
nized. This is admitted by repub
licans all over the state, but has
not Eastern Oregon been somewhat
to blame for this condition of af
fairs Have the forces been prop
erly and harmoniously concen
trated at the proper time? The
question is now coming up again.
It has a good start already. What
are the republicans going to do?
Several candidates have been prom
inently mentioned. Local favor
ites are being put forward in dif
ferent localities. While this is a
condition that always exists, it is a
matter that should be settled before
the meeting of the next Republican
State Convention. The republi
cans of Eastern Oregon should
come to some sort of an agreement
upon what they are entitled to, and
the Uaietti believes that the next
Republican State Convention will
do what is right and just. ' This is
no time to stir up contention which
is injurious to party interests at all
tinea. There is no reason why the
republicans of Eastern and West.
era Oregon should not work to

we are going to have it, and we are
not going to stir up any row about

Literary Notes
WBA T WE SPEXD FOR PEXSIOXS.
Since the 1st of July, 1790. to!
the end of June, 1901. the United
States Government has disbursed
the enormous sum of $2, i G3,3"o,
033 for pensions. This vast amount
has been chiefly paid to the partic
ipants in five wars that of the
Revolution, the War of 1312. the
Mexican War, the War of the Re
bellion and the Spanish-American
War. The greatest amounts have
of course, gone to the survivors
and dependents of the soldiers who
fought in the Civil War, although
the sum expended in meeting the
claims growing out of the Mexi
can War is by no means inconsid
erable. Already the drafts to meet
the consequences of the war with
Spain are making themselves felt.
Last year the Spanish war pension
ers received 81,175,225, an increase
over the preceding year of $842,
32). This amount is sure to swell
in the future.
The statement of Commissioner
Evans, from which the above fix-
area were derived, also gives the
amounts of money paid to pension
ers under different administrations
sine the Civil War. During Pres.
ideat Grant's first term the average
disbursements were 129,034,009
annually; during the four years of
his second term the average was
$28,598,639. While Hayes was
President the average was 138,330,-
622 a year; in the succeeding ad
ministration it rose to 9,45C,2f8:
there was a further average in
crease during Clevelands first
term to $76,408,165. It was tl29,
926,931 a year while Harrison was
in office, and $139,487,602 during
Cleveland's second term. The year
ly average rose to $140,000,137 be
tween 1897 and 1901, and it will
probably exceed that amount dur
ing McKlnley's second term.
The story in the argonaut for August
16, l!01, it by John Harold Hamlin, and
is entitled, "The Tresspass of Widow
'iraan: A Compromising Incident of
the Peavine Feud." It is an amusing
sketch of a disturbing element in a min
ing iimp, and pictures a midnight raid
that nearly ended in disaster.
The August number of the Pacific
Monthly is the best number of that mag
azine ever issued. It lias made a new
departure in that it' lias adopted the
plan of having many illustrations, the
most popnlar feature of magazines now
adays. The articles, too, are of excep
tional interest. They combine the lo
cal and the world-wide in such a degree
a to challenge the interest of all people
in this seo'ion.
