The Oregon Pioneer society whose an
nual meeting will be held in .lane, is
taking steps to hare its anniversary on
' the centennial of the discovery of the
Columbia river. Should the movement
succeed it is expected that the United
States government will consent to send
to A.storia two or three war ships to give
added interest to the occasion in the
way of firing appropriate salutes. We
understand the matter is in the hands
of a committe of the Pioneer society
which is expected to report at an early
day. We hope the report may be favor
able to the carrying outof the programme
suggested. It would be most fitting
that the two events shonld become one
and their joint celebration would attract
a crowd of visitors that would undoubt
edly make the day a grand success.
A movement is said to be on foot to
revive the issue of fractional paper cur
rency. We are not aware of any serious
objection that can be offered to the
measure while many reasons might be
given in its favor. Ihe clnet of tliese is
the difficulty aud inconvenience that
persons living at a distance from a money
order office have in sending small sums
of money through the mails. Neither
postage stamps nor postal notes till the
want as both have to be first purchad
by the sender and then converted into
currency by the receiver, often at great
inconvenience. The sending of silver
currency through the mails is an un
handy and clumsy piece of business
when compared with that of sending
fractional paper currency. Besides too
'the aggregate additional cost is a con
siderable tax upon the people. By all
means let us have a reissue of fractional
paper money.
The people's party- of Baker county
are demanding of candidates for county
offices that they enter into a bonded con
tract to perform the work of the offices
of recorder, clerk and sheriff for a stipu
lated sum of money on condition of be
iag elected by the party's vote. The
Scheme will hardly work. It is very pos
sible that the law would construe such
contract as a bribe and the candidates
might he knocked out entirely by it
even if they did receive a majority of the
wotea cast. Whatever temporary meas
ure might be successful nothing efficient
and permanent can be done till the leg
islature deals with the matter and pass
es a law placing the offices named under
xed salaries or otherwise reduces the
'fees to a sensible and reasonable limit.
The Indians on the Umatilla reserva
tion will be allowed to assume the privil
ege of citizenship including suffrage, im
mediately upon the approval by the de
partment of the allotment of their lands.
It is hoped the allotment may be fin
ished before the next June election and
' the question that troubles the politicians
of Umatilla county is "How are they
going to vote?" It is supposed that the
candidate who has the biggest sack will
rapture the Indian persimmon.
Bell of the Independence Went Side is
getting it right in the neck. He had
the hardihood to call State Senator
"Veatch, who has aspirations after
Binger Herman's shoes, a "negation"
and some of the stalwarts are reading
him a lesson on "heresy" and "depar
ture from the faith" that ought to make
him feel that he is an awful wicked man.
The Jacksonville Time alls Bell a
worshiper of tin Gods.
The Hood River people are kicking
. vigorously at the big tax bill they have
to pay this year. The Glacier says : If
this county will kindly take some of the
property for part payment of the taxes
and wait until our citizens can earn the
balance, we feel certain they will cheer
fully pay it. They are honest even in a
Stile matter of this kind.
David B. Hill's star is now in the as
cendant and the papers that have been
saying mean things about him are en
gaged in letting themselves down to an
adjustment with the new condition of
things. Some of .them will have to
let themselves down a long way.
Researches in the census office dis
close the fact that there are in the
United States 12,500,000 families, and of
these 10,035,000 are living in houses, or
on farms, that are not incumbered by
any mortgage obligations. .

STRIKING TESTIMONY.
The American Wool Eeporter, published
in Boston, New York and Philadelphia, is
the chief organ of the woolen manufac
turers of the United States. -It earnestly
opposed the McKinleybill, and still
criticises some features of it ; yet it says :
"In less than two years a remarkable
change has been wrought ; and it may
be' noted right here, and we affirm it
with considerable emphasis, that the
change is a direct result of the schedule,
which is a bar to the importation of
manv poods formerly imported. And it
may not be amiss to say that this change
has occurred without any appreciable,
if any .change in prices to the consumer."
The eame publication says further:
"The year just ended was a wool dress
goods year; it witnessed the largest pro
duction of fancy goods this country has
ever reached. Not only this, but it
marked the beginning of a new era in
the industry, an era which is likely to
be a notable one. Probably never before
in the history of the industry has the
prospect for the future been as blight
and promising as at the present time.
After years of struggles against adverse
influences, the domestic manufacturer
sees a future before bim that offers every
encouragement : with a hnu foothold
gained, and both feet planted, there
seems to be little in the way of a steady
march forward. The foreign competitor
has been shut out, so far as pertains to
the great bulk of goods that go to the
masses, and the field is his own. It is a
glorious present and promises to be a
more glorious future." .
The Keely cure for the liquor and
opium habit has evidently made a good
impression on the government. Accord
ing to report Dr. Keely has just entered
into a contract with the United States
government to put his remedies and
treatment in all national and state mili
tary homes of America. It is even said
that a group of English capitalists rep-1
resenting a capitalized stock of 1 ,000,-
000, has contracted for the sole use of
Keely remedies in the United Kingdom,
Captain J. N. D. Gray of Astoria
threatens, in case congres-s should fail
to make the necessary appropriation for
a boat railway at the dalles of the Col
umbia to resurrect the boat transfer
scheme that gave excuse to the enemies
of a portage railway at the last legisla
ture to substitute this latter scheme for
a "scow." The .Lord deliver eastern
Oregon from the idiocies of Captain
Grav. The Captain knows how to run
a boat but that is all he does know.
There are about a thousand republi
can statesmen in Oregon who, the Tele
gram says, will nope that there is truth
in the rumor that Dolph will be ap
pointed to the supreme bench, for then
there would be another United States
senator to elect next winter, and each
one would imagine that he might be the
man. But how would Hon. Joseph
Simon do? The rest of them wouldn't
be in it.
The quickest cure of deformity on rec
ord is the case of two hump-backed pas
sengers who arrived in New York from
Havre. An examination of the humps
by the custom house officers found them
filled with diamonds, pearls, rubies and
other jewelry. The crooked were made
straight by the confiscation of their
humps.
All objections to the appointment cf
Mr. Gilbert to the vacant judgeship of

Suond.
The Heppner Gazette is in it "heart

Tacoma News. "There is going to be
a new face in heaven," is the happy
manner in which the Astoria Town Talk
announced that its editor had received
notice he would be murdered. Angelic
beings, those Astorians.
The proposition is made to bond the
city of Pomeroy for .$10,000 for the pur
pose of sinking an artesian well. It is
)hou 'ht that if successful this would in
sure a better supply of water for tht
city than could be obtained in any other

Moro Observer. Moro will soon have
a bran 'new livery stable. J. A.. West
has ordered 20,000 feet of lumber and
intends building a stable 30x70 .feet
The work will begin as soon as the lum
ber can be hauled. , He ordered his lum
ber from the Woodcock & Lake saw mill
in Wasco county.
Wasco News. . The general opinion
seems to prevail among the farmers that
but little if any, of the wheat has frozen
out. . Some consider the danger over
while others are inclined to the opinion
that all danger of freezing out is not yet
passed. At any rate just at the present
time the prospects were never better for
another good crop.
Astorian. Recently an English tourist
visited Greenland and in his valise was
a big red apple. The customhouse men
having never seen one before, and being
unable to find anyone who had, took it
for a bomb, and wade the Englishman
sit down and eat it.. They were quite
put out'when he didn't explode and shat
ter things. -
Waaco News. While Wasco leads in
energetic efforts, commercial and me
chanical enterprises, and is in the van
of all competitive points, and we hail
this fact with unalloyed joy upon our
lips, and from the depth of our heart of
hearts, it is also with unfeigned satisfac-1
tion and pleasure that we chronicle the
fact that Sherman county does not lag
behind any county in the state. All of
our sister county towns are, however,
making commendable improvements.
The farmers are also alive to the de
mands of the occasion, and their homes
are becoming more and more attractive
as the years go by, all of which we are
pleased to note..
Klamath Star. - Hon. T. T. Geer, of
Marion county, has popped up before us
as an aspirant panting for and seeking
with large-eyed eagerness the republican
nomination for congress. No Geer dele
gate will go from the Klamath or Lake
counties to the convention, that is posi-
tive. Hardly anybody in this country.
has rver heard of Geer, of Marion, while
every intelligent man and woman has
for years been hearing not only of Her
mann, but also of Hermann's faithful
nees to his constituents. The fact is,
Hermann is not in a strict sense a party
candidate. lie is already selected for
congress by a considerable majority of
sensble men in the ranks of both parties
uien who set that one quality of faith
fulness above all mere considerations of
party.
The convention, I mav mention.

Darkness there, and nothing more! .
The Musical Well of Xucoouk.
One of the most enrions wells in the
west is on the place of Henry M. Hen
derson on Oakes avenue. This well can
play on a dozen different musical in
struments a the eame time, and has
done it, which is an accomplishment
that no human being is known to pos
sess. The well is about 400 feet deep.
At nearly all hours of the day or night
a wind blows up from the bottom of it
and whistles through the cracks in the
tight board covering. When the wind
does not blow out it seems to be sucked
in by the well.
An abundant supply of good water is
in the well at all times, and where the
wind comes from or where it goes is a
mystery which Mr. Henderson has not
solved. One day uot long ago Mr. Hen
derson collected all the musical instru
ments he could anionuting to eight
from his neighbors and friends. He
bored holes in the boards covering the
well and at one aperture placed a cornet,
at another a bass horn, at another a
clarionet, then a life, an immense tin
horn abont three yards long which he
bad made, a mouth organ and other in
struments up to the number mentioned.
One after another they began to blow
as he put them in. The hoarse growl of
the biiss bora mingled with the clarion
tones of the cornet and clarionet, etc.
When all were going the din was ter
rible, and there did not 6eem to be a
good note sounded. The wind does not
come np from the well in a steady blow,
but in gusts of more or less force, and it
was amusing as well as astonishing to
hear the old bass and the nine foot tin
tube snort together. Tacoma Herald.
Cocoaunt Butter.
According to a report made by the
British vice consul at Berlin the produc
tion of an edible fat from the marrow
of the cocoanut has been carried on for
the last two years by a firm at Manne
heim, the process having been, discov
ered three years before by Dr. Schlinck.
Factories having the same object in
view are about to be established at Paris
and at Amsterdam. The nuts ojrne from
the South Sea islands and also from
certain places on the African and South
American coasts.
The butter, which is sold at less than
half the price of ordinary butter in Lon
don, or from thirteen to fifteen cents per
pound, contains from CO to 70 per cent
of fat and from 23 to 25 per cent, of or
ganic matter. Its color is white and it
is of an agreeable taste, is suitable for
cooking1 purposes and is being purchased
by the jur. who prefer it to margarine.
Deing free from acid it digests with
greater ease than dairy bntter, and is
preferable in other ways to the bad but
ter which too often finds its way to mar
ket. It is also a more attractive com
pound than the various preparations
called margarine, some of which have
very questionable origin. Goldthwaite's ,

MARKET REVIEW.
; Thursday, February 25, lsoi.
The local market is very quiet. The
business of the week past has not given
any appearance of improvement over the
former. The beautiful weather has caus
ed an increased activity among the farm
ers on their farms, in plowing and sow
ing of early grain, and as a consequence
there are but few in the city.
In jobbing lines there has been a let
ter inquiry for staples from the country
merchants and interior towns, and a con
siderable amount of freighting has been
done.
There has been several large freight
teams in from Mitchell and Prineville,
in Crook county, and have loaded with
merchandise and gone from the Wasco
warehouse to the. merchants in those
places. ' " ' ' ": "
. MOSEV MATTEE6
Are comparatively easy.-- e near ot a
limited inquiry for money on loan, and
parties in need are seldom willing to pay
a bonus to the brokers for the purpose of
obtaining it. , In conversation with some
of our bankers, we' are given to under
stand that there is no scarcity of money,
and deposits are constantly coming in,
a larger ratio than formerly.
REAL ESTATE.
The real estate market is constantly im
proving. There is considerable more in
quiry, and more transfers, than at any
former corresponding periods. Town or
city property is sought after, at advanced
rates, in a greater degree than ever be
fore at this point. Our real estate bro
kers are very happy over the outlook as
foretold by the present.
MISCELLANEOUS.
Staple groceries are in good demand, and
prices are maintained on all lines except
in sugars, which have advanced a ct.
fJ B. all round. Coffee has dropped
slightly. Syrups remain about the same
except the common grades, which are
marked down somewhat. Dried fruits
are unusually low. Bleached dried peach
es lOcts, bleached apples lOcts, Italian
prunes evaporated 10 cts, pitted 11 cts,
apricots 124. Common grades 1 to 2cts
lower.
In garden products potatoes are in
light demand, best grades are quoted at
60 cts per 100 fts, and inferior at 40 to 50.
Cabbage is in limited supply. Onions
are off at lj.j' cts Tp B, and dull sale at
that: "
THE WnEAT MARKET
Is very quiet, and prices are not encour
aging. Reports' from- the east and for
eign markets indicate a sluggish state of
affairs on change. The report sent out
by the centers that only two-fifths of all
the wheat product of the United States
had passed out of first hands, has to a
greater or less degree, practically paraly
sed the markets, and expectations for
cheaper breadstuff's is to be realized in
the near future. Floor in Portland has
declined 25 cts. on the barrel, and a still
further decline is looked for. Willam
ette wheat is quoted at 92 to 95 cents f
bushel, Walla Walla No. 1, 00 cents.
