Blaine says he would rather be secretary of state than be presi-derjY.-'- - . Tiie decrease of the public dobt for "the month of January is 9, 750,000. ' -- ;.. . -Ti3&e3itof of the Boohmart, in commenting jtpon an article on "Soc&lleH- Americanisms" in the StJames1 'Gazette, of London, points out that ''cute and 'cuteness occur in' Golds-mtth; th&t fall (for autumn) is found in Massinger; that our use of the word bug i Tudor English, and that in Wi cljf a Bible the following sentence o curs: "At .' ystra Birnabasan 1 Paul rent their clothes and skipped out." The expression, "J got left,1' is used both in Shakes speare and in some of the old mad rigal writers. , ' .-THERE js always h sharp com petition for the position of mean est man in the world. Every few dais'torao paper comes f irward with a new candidate. The Bal timore American has discoven-d a man who seems to have a great many qualifications for the place. He is a clerk in the pension office at "Washington. A number of the women employes have been absent ...... - of-Jate.owing to illness. On their return to duty the clerk obliged them to "take oath as to rho truth fulness of their statements before a notary public He him.elf holds that office and he charged them fifty cents apiece. A WASUiXGrox cone-pondent calls attention to the fact that Gar land and Bayard while in the son ate opposed the original inter state bill on constitutional grounds, while Lamar voted for the bill. Manning and Whitney are believed to be hostile to the present meas ure. He adds: It is whispered that the attorney-general will evade the question of the consti tutionality of the measure alto gether and transmit to the presi dent an opinion which will leave the latter a loop hole to deal with the bill as he sees fit, and again it is said that the president will veto the bill, not because he considers it unconstitutional, but because it is loosely drawn, open to misinter pretation and capable of being improved after further discussion. At any rate, whether to be signed or vetoed, it is certain to be made the subject of a message. It is certain that.if the bill is vetoed it will be passed over the veto in the house, but it may f til in the senate if the veto is put on the ground that the provisions of the bill are not sufficiently well defined. i ii Roach Weather oa the Railroad Lines. The Oregon Short Line train ar rived at East Portland at 1 p. a., yes terday. Two locomotives and a snow plow preceded the train. No tram arrived from the Northern Pacific. Through passengers who arrived by the latter road Wednesday speak of an almost continuous blizzard from the Jime they left St. Paul until they reaphed $pokaue Falls. A sweeping storm came down from Uanada and swept through Montana, Dakota and Minnesota. At Fort McGinnia on the 29th, the thermometer dropped 3i degrees in about three and a half hours, and rhe wind was traveling at the rate of 100 miles per hour. Cat tle perish d by the hundreds and frosted bands and ears were fashion able. The east bound train that left here on the 26th pt January was snowed nnder near Jamestown, Da kota. All throngh Miunesota, Mon tana and Dakota the weather is very cold, with high winds and drifting snow. Passengers who came in yes terday say there is considerable snow along the O. R. & N. line, and slow Srogress is made in consequence. lews, 4.

The lighthouse inspeotor has been instructed by the acting chief of the signal service to direct the light keeper at Cape Mendocino to take charge of the apparatus of the serv ice now at that place It is probable that the signal statioa at the cape will be abandoned. Mariners of the northern coast say that if this -is done it will be to the great detriment of the shipping interests.
