The difficulty to arouse enthusiasm
for Mr, Bljiine at this time is significant.
The general public looks upon him as a
sick man. It would be impossible to
convince the ordinary voter that Mr.
Blaine would be able to perform the
duties of the presidential office and di
rect republican party affairs. His can
didacy would excite apprehension that
the men who are now pushing him into
' the race would control him should he be
elected president. There is danger that
he would be regarded as the . candidate
of a certain set of men and not of the
whole party. Another thing that would
be unfortunate for Mr. Blaine and his
candidacy : Being suspected of. ill
health and feebleness, he would be re
quired to make a more convincing dis
play of physicial vigor than would be
exacted of a well man. He would have
to be visible to all inquisitive persons.
Committees visiting from anywhere
would take along a local physician to ex
amine Mr. Blaine's health and bodily
condition. Besides, Mr. Blaine would
have to do all manner of physical feats
.and put in at least eight hours a day at
his tiesk. And then there would still be
people who would say he was on the
verge of the grave? A campaign of this
sort would not lie pleasing to republi
cans. J t is not the sort of a campaign
patriotic citizens like to engage in. It
would be unfortunate for Mr. Blaine
himselt to be nominated under such con- j
ditions.
C. P. Allen of Pomeroy, is the first
man we have ever heard of opposed to
an open Columbia river. He does so in
the Independent of the 2d. We extract
one one paragraph of his argument. He
says: "Now suppose the river is open
for practical navigation and gets its
share of the traffic ; then we can see the
villiany of the atrocious scheme. For
example, we will say that the river robs
the railroads of one-fourth of their
freights ; that it is easy to see the roads
would have to add one-third to the
present exorbitant rates, to realize the
profits they now enjoy. Thus forever
preventing the legislature from reduc
ing rates to the level it would be possi
ble, without an open river. If you be
lieve in a republican form of govern
ment, jf you are loyal to the true princi
ples of democracy, let us have no side
tracking of vital issues; for we propose
to reduce freights without bankrupting
the roads, and without appropriating
millions of dollars of the producers
money to open a public highway for in
corporated capital to monopolize." . It
seems to us a woeful waste of -time to
reply to such statement as the above.
He would reduce freights without bank
rupting the roads. Can it be possible
that "Sir. Allen is so blind that he cannot
see that the people are bankrupted by
the roads annually, for the want of an
open river, tree to every body.' What
The Spokane Review nominates ' Rob
ert Lincoln as a compromise candidate I
for Minneapolis. It says: "At this j
critical moment the. presidential light- j
ning is playing about the' head of Robert
Lincoln. The Blaine workers are not j
unmindful of the magic spell that lies in j
an honored name, and they cannot iail
to consider the splendid opportunity ,:
herein presented of stampeding the con
vention for a man whose name alone j
would arouse tremendous enthusiasm, j
In the event of the defeat of Mr. Har
rison the party cannot possibly strike j
upon a happier choice. Mr. Lincoln '
has created no antagonisms. If he were j
nominated yon could almost count upon '
the fingers of a single hand the republi-!
cans who would bolt the ticket. He
could awaken intense enthusiasm, aud !
he could poll the full vote of the party. '
In these lie the chief elements of vie-1
torv."

Last year Argentine bought from us
-"f2,8:20,0:i5 worth of wearing apparel,
machinery, furniture, canned goods and
other, manufactured articles, and we
bought from that country products to
the value of $5,976,544, mostly in wool

ought to draw very close to in trade re-
Tbe 10,000,000 silver coins which it is
proposed that the government shall issue
for the world's fair will have the weight
and fineness of the present half-dollars,
and although their face value will be
$5,000,000 the cost of them to the govern
ment will riot exceed $2,500,000. The
most objectionable feature of the propo
sition is that it authorizes the secretary
of the treasurv to purchase American
silver bullion in addition to the present
monthly purchases to an amount suffi
cient to enable him to comply with the
terms of the act, and the sum of $4,000,-
000 is appropriated for the purpose. As
the government has on hand nearlv
$15,000,000 fractional silver coin, most
of it, we believe, m the form of half
dollars, and as thiauncurrent coin has
for years been an incubus on the treas
ury, the purchase of silver bullion for
the world's fair tokens would be sheer
waste of money. If the issue of the
tokens is decided upon the recoinage of
The Heppner Gazette devotes a page of
its last issue to the Hardman country.
For years the region described was the j
greatest stock range in the west, but j
some twelve or fifteen years ago a uum- j
ber of hardy pioneers ventured into
these fields for the purpose, of building !
home. Their success prompted others
to follow, and as the settlement grew,,
accommodations of a public character j
were necessary, and now it is one of the j
most prosperous sections of the.' Inland

They have beef enough to feed the world ;
indeed, it is said that the cattle which
range over Argentine and the countries
immediately north outnumber all the
cattle in the outside world. Among her
people Argentine has 80.000 strong men
from the United Kingdom; English,
Scotch and Irish. They are enough to
; give direction to the commerce and trade
of that country. They are of the ster
ling races and they are in a land where
their hopes are boundless. The United
. States should try to get a close walk
with that nation.
Arrangements are being made to work
the coal mines of Alaska this year and
to begin extensive gold mining. That
is a good deal of a country. When Sec
retary Seward bought it, the opposition
press to the administration declared it
was money thrown away, but the seals
have paid back that purchase-money
-and the interest on it, and for the twenty
years preceding 1890 more than $60,000,
000 worth of products were shipped out
of that country to the lower states of the
republic. The possibilities are it will
be the best gold-producing country in
the union, and in the world, in the next
few years ; there is no end to its timber ;
its fisheries are something that will grow
immensely year after year; while it is
said that the air blowing over the warm
currents which lave that shore make it a
better place to winter in than the east
shore of Maine. It was a wise buy when
Alaska was taken in.

A recent measure, introduced in- the
house by Mr. Bryan, of Nebraska, and
which is said to be favorably regarded
by the ways and means committee, is a
bill to amend the act to protect trade
and commerce agaiit. unlawful re
straints and monopolies. '' It provides
that whenever any United States circuit
court shall find in a ca.e pending before
it that any contract, combination or
conspiracy in restraint of trade or com
merce, exists in respect to any article
I which is subject to tariff duty, it shall i
report tho facts to the president, who;
shall issue a proclamation placing such
article on the free list. Whenever such
article is subject to a tax under the internal-revenue
laws the duty on such
article shall be equal to such tax. And
after the date fixed in the proclamation
the article shall be admitted when im
ported into the United States subject to
a duty equal to the internal-revenue tax.

It is claimed that the practice Of saw
ing off the horns of grown cattle is being
superseded by preventing the growth
of horns with the John March Chemical
Dehorner, applied to the embryo horn
of the three-days-old calf. .The horn
never having become :t part of the ani
mal thus treated in infancy, future gen
erations do not grow horns more than in
naturally polled animals. Sheep are
also treated successfully. With thiseasy,
-safe and cheap remedy, stockgrowers
should cease to grow horns at the risk of
human and animal life, at the cost of
more shed room, more feed, more car
room in shipping, loss by hides torn and
flesh bruised, loss by screw worms at
tacking wounds, loss of nutrition neces
sary to grow horna, lose by the stronger
tormenting the weaker. Horns ought
to become a tning oi the paat.
Postmaster General Wanamaker has
issued another advertisement for bids
under the act of March 3, 1891, which
provides for an increased ocean mail
service between the United States and
foreign countries, with a view to the in
crease of commerce. It is known that
several steamship companies which did
not bid for service under the first adver
tisement are ready to do so under this
one. Bid are asked for all of the routes
for which contracts were not let under
the first advertisement, including that
irom San Francisco to Hong Kong.

"Annie Rooney" received $14,000 for it.
This is remarkable, but not nearly so
strange as that the man should reveal

Anna Dickinson thinks she ought to
have 5,000 for services rendered the re
pablican national committee in the cam
paign of 1888, and has sued the commit
tee for that amount. It is in evidence
that she actually received $3,750 of the
j fat which was fried out of the manufac
turers," and gentle Anna ought to be
well satisfied with that. If the value of
her services were to be tested by results,
she has probably been largely overpaid.
