Editors Press: I have conclud ed to quit working, as there is nothing in it, but a living, and I know of several fellows that never do a lick of work; yet they seem to have a better time and more mon ey than I do; so I have decided to rent a room, stay in town, and se if I can get on to the scheme of having plenty and doing nothing. I would like to engage a room south of Main street, in the vicinity of that five-acre wood pile not that I have any designs on the wood, but because I was reared in a wood en country, and it would seem more home-like, more comfortable, you know, and well I dont believe Hollis would miss just a few sticks, anyway. ' '., 1 The other evening a fellow on a "jag" was boasting that he was the "best little man that ever struck Athena, but no better." That re minds me of what a friend of mine once said to me. He lives here in town now and the first letter of his name is Bill." This happened sev eral years ago, before Bill had quit drinking water. One day I met him in town, and he called me aside and said very confidentially: "Say, if there is anything in the world that I despise, its one thing more than another." Why do the city authorities' al low the stable men and others to dump manure, filth and garbage of all kinds, on Main street, within two or three blocks of the business part of the city. It would have been impossible-to have dumped it in a place, where a greater number of the inhabitants could stay at home and enjoy the benefits there from.

The railroad commissioners pass ed up the line the other day, on a tour of inspection. J he gentlemen of the commission, were standing on the rear platform, dispatching business at the rate of thirty miles an hour, except while crossing bridges which was at about a twenty-five mile rate, l here are some people cranks enough to think the inspectors know very little more about the condition of the road after passing over it than they did before; but their opinion don't amount to much, as they belong to the comrnon herd; the common, ordinary, scrubby tax-payers. For my part J don t see how we ever got along without railroad commis- loners. They certainly fall a "long felt want" or wallet and as they draw a handsome salary they feel under obligations to do business with a rush.

Oregon Needs Population. What rapid immigration could do for Oregon was illustrated today by Mr. F. J. Atwood, of Omaha, says the Telegram. "If you could only start such an influx of people to Oregon as came to Nebraska between 1883 and 1888 you would soon have 1,400,000 people here instead of 400,000. I well remember when Nebraska did not have over 250,000 inhabitants, and we thought that we were doing -well." Suddenly a wave of immi gration seemed to roll in upon us, and our barren prairies became subdivided into farms, villiages were started at every crossroad, 6mall towns became cities, and railroads were built in all directions This kept up until we reached and passed the million limit, and had not drouths and hard times came on in another wave, we would now boast of over 2.000,000 population. "My point is thw: Oregon is way ahead of Nebraska in resour ces, variety of products and diver sity of climate. Where Nebraska supports one man in creditable shape, Oregon can support two. The valley of your big river, water ed by abundant rains, and Eastern Oregon made to blossom by irri gation has a capacity of holding without crowding, 5,000,000 peo ple. All you require is to get the myriads of farmers in the Central West and East to appreciate the opportunity here, and they will come. But one thing more: There should be ready an abundance of reliable information, regulated . by state statutes, telling them where they can get good homes and make an honest living. 1 speak trankly when I say that more injury has been done by men coming back to Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa, who were sadly disappointed, and inhos pitably received, than by any other influence. . Their stories are gladly . prinffld in the home papers, and fammebouiISi move conclude to stay where they are." ; -j J Af a Distance V The ew telephone line wa8 put to a novel use Saturday night.

On Friday and Saturday last about 1000 farmers met at Pull man, Wash., and in mass-meeting apserabled, talked over their troub les, brought about by the financial stringency and the low price of wheat, made doubly burdensome by the heavy rains which came while harvest was in fall blast. The following resolutions were adopted after much earnest discussion. Whereas, The producers of the northwest, owing to the action of trusts and combines, which are the illegitimate offspring of our govern ment, are unable to realize more than cost of production of all pro ducts; and Whereas, through the action of all the elements all the crop were so badly damaged that full one-half the crops are unfit for market, thereby rendering the producer un able to realize sufficiently to meet his obligations: and , Whereas, The merchants and men of all trades and professions are dependent directly or indirecty upon the products of the farm, as well as the farmer, to meet their obligationns: and 1 .-Whereas, Through the hoarding and contracting of the currency and withdrawal of credit the pres ent condition has been brought about, and it will be necessary to have an extension of time for all debtors for - at least 12 months; tirciciuro uo it Resolved, .

They were John Keiley, from Spokane, and S. Wright, from beattle, they had been employed in the brick yard, and unobserved by the guards, commenced to tunnel beneath the wall. The bottom of the wall is about two feet beneath the ground, and the soil is very light, thus affording very easy means of escape. While in the act thev were discovered by guards and placed in a dark cell. Fatal Runaway at Walla Walla. A team hitched to a hack con taining Sherman Yeend, wife and child, and his wife's mother, Mrs. Harper, ran away in Walla Walla Saturday, probably fatally injur ing Mrs. Harper, All the other occupants were thrown out but she remained in the seat until the horses ran each side of a telephone pole, throwing her high in the air and breaking her thigh.

Half-way down Alder, between Second and Third streets, the sack burst, And its golden contents of double eagles, . eagles and half eagles rolled along the wooden side-walk. A look of despair waB depicted upon the messenger's face as he saw a dozen or more Chinese and a few idle white men scramble for the coin. For fully five seconds he was tin able to articulate a sound but at la st implored the crowd'to act honestly with him, and his earnest, plead ing request met with the desired response. He removed his sack coat, laid it upon the sidewaiK, anu Chinese and whites alike dropped what money they had upon the coat.
