STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION.
The Washington State Press Associa
tion, which is to meet at Spokane on
the same day that the Oregon Press As
sociation is to meet in The Dalles, Tues
day next, is causing as much or more
comment throughout the state as it is
here, referring to which the Review
says: "It has already advertised this
city widely. In entertaining the news
paper men in a fitting manner the city
. will not only do what is right and prop
er,.but will also receive an amount of
' advertising that will be of almost in
estimable value to the city. Nearly
every paper in the state will contain an
account of the proceedings and the
manner in which the guests are enter
tained, and upon the impression made
upon these men next week will depend
largely the fame which our city will en
joy abroad for some time to come. It is
therefore, proper that no pains be spared
to make the occassion an cnjovable one
for the citv's guests. 9
JUPITER'S XEW SATELLITE.
Controversieb butwuen astronomers as
to the' rightful claimants for the honor
of the discovery of Jupiter's new satel
lite clearly indicate that it was a letter
sent to Lick observatory by D. E. Cart
wright of Detroit, in 1891, that directly
inspired the discovery of the fifth satel
lite by Professor Barnard. In 1890
Cartwright opened a correspondence
with the Harvard college observatory,
but no explanation was obtainable.
Further observation was deferred until
the opposition of the following year
1891, when a recurrence of the phenom
ena of 1890 disclosed the fact that this
unusual occurrence could be accounted
for in no other way except by allotting
to Jupiter a satellite in addition to the
four already known. After considerable
discussion they decided the new satellite
was a fact, and over a year since wrote
Professor Holden, of Lick observatory,
assigning the position which the obser
vation of Professor Barnard verified
Cartwright has preserved the letters
from Lick and Harvard college observa-
tories in response to his communications
calling attention to the new satellite.
HAS FINALLY BOLTED.
The New York Herald says: "The
business of the country is in a provok
ingly healthy and flourishing condition
Business failures for the first half of the
present year have been one thousand
fewer in number and forty million less
in gross liabilites than they were during
the corresponding period of 1891." This
sustains Pecks report ; furthermore, new
industrial enterprises for manufacturing
iron, cotton, and woolen fabrics are go
ing into operation in various sections
and while the margin of profits is small
business is on a solid foundation, and
the outlook in every direction is hopeful
and encouraging. The grain crop
promising, money is abundant and col
lections are easy. Ii the face of such
' condition of things the calamity howler
must remain silent. His howling will
scare nobody, not even himself, for he
is too smart not to realize that the
country is in a marvelously prosperous
condition and likely to continue so.
John I. Blair of Blairsville, N. J., who
is reported to be worth all the way from
ou,uuu,uw to jfiou,uuu,uuu, nas never
sold a share of stock in any enterprise
. with which he has been associated, and
has money investedin scores of railroads
some of which he absolutely controls,
His hand covers the Oregon Pacific, the
Astoria and Albany, and is in the As
. toria and Portland. The greatest fault
he has is in not trusting his agents
straight through with any scheme after
' it is atarted. But he generally gets
mere give mm nis own time lor re
flection over it.
- Whiskey men interviewed in Port
land on the tariff, say the liquor trade
has increased so largely during the past
few years that it is difficult to tell
whether the McKinley bill has had any
effect on it or not. VanSchuyver says :
"The government nnd the manufactur
ers of liquors are benefitted by the law,
as the government receives the revenue,
and there is a better demand for the
products of the domestic manufac-f-nrersr"
: '
The Chinese of Oregon have about
concluded to submit to the Geary act.
There are 107,475 Chinese in the United
States. California has 72,472 of them,
while 24,372 more are scattered through
out the west. There are less than 7,000
in the Atlantic states and but 3,789 in
the Central states. They now know
that if they fail to comply with' the act
they will be sent back to China after
May 5th next.
Concerning the sensation of the Chi
cago Times that the murderer of Dr,
Croniu is an inmate of the Oregon state
penitentiary, the Oregonian today says
"Coleman," the Geoghegan of the Times
story, denies complicity in the crime,
but of course that mght be expected,
He admits having lived in, Chicago,
where be has a wife ; was pressman on
the Times, and knew both Dr. Cronin
and the ice man Sullivan, but claims
that he has never been a member of any
Irish -society. His present term of ser
vice would expire next month, and he is
willing to go back to Chicago and ftand
trial. He is snid to be a hard-looking
character, but has been well behaved in
prison. He was sentenced for robbery
March 26tb, 1891.
The republicans of South Carolina,
adopted a platform yesterday declaring
that with a free ballot and a fair count
the state is republican by 40,000 votes.
It condemns the democracy of the state
for dealing with the people by force and
fraud; declares the registration and
election laws of the. state nullify the
republican form of government; hails
with satisfaction the words of sympathy
in the republican platform of New York
and asks that other states take like
action with a view of making a na
tional sentiment to break up such laws.
It was decided not to put a ticket in the
field, because, as the resolution stated,
the republican voters are disfranchised.
Governor Pennoyer's anticipated bolt
ing speech was launched upon the peo
pie before an audience of 500 at Rose-
burg Saturday, at a peoples' party
meeting. He renounced and denounced
democracy ; issued his declaration of
faith and declared his future adherence
to the peoples' party, with free silver,
paper money, income tax and all. The
report says the governor was listened to
attentively, but evoked no enthusiasm
whatever. Scarcely a murmur of ap'
clause greeted bis most brilliant re-
remarks, there being seemingly a gen
eral distrust among the peoples' party
men and a great disgust among the
democrats. Of course, the republicans
were not expected to enthuse, and they
did not. Before stating the leading
issues of political parties before the peo
nle. he paid his respects to Grover
Cleveland after this style :
Some two and a half years ago. iust
following Cleveland's anti-silver letter,
in response to a request I said to the
Cincinnati Enquirer: "The great
masses of the democratic . party in the
United States favor the free ' coinage of
silver. Mr. Cleveland opposes it. Ma
homet must come-to the mountain, as
the mountain will not go to Mahomet."
But I was mistaken. A phenomenon in
the political world has occurred al
most as remarkable as the removal of a
mountain at the command of a prophet.
A great political party, with nearly a
century's history of consistency in faith
and devotion to principle, has at last
proved recreant to all its traditions, and
forswearing its fealty to the cause of the
people, has knelt in blind, idolatrous
devotion at the shrine of a man whose
sole distinguishing characteristic is his
stubborn subserviency to the demands
of the monometalists.
A careful investigation, however, dis
closes the fact that this devotion is
really not to him, as he has neither the
personal qualities, the intellectual en
dowments, nor the political sagacity to
win homage. Like the moon, his efful
gence is a borrowed light. the real
reason of bis potency is the fact that his
candidacy is demanded by the money
power. In his nomination the strength,
if any, which was gained, was from the
strong boxes of Wall street. As the
Eious Mussulman turns at each prayer
is face toward Mecca, so the demo
cratic party, in the hope that "thrift
might follow fawning," at the Chicago
convention turned its back upon all of
its revered traditions, its time-honored
principles, and its heretofore unbroken
record of devotion to the people's cause,
and with its face to the east, made a
most profound salaam to the great Joss
set up by the devotees of monometalism
and rank rag-money.

a table, a lady from Kentucky sent a

arose, bowed his acknowledgement and
touched the glass to his lips, but he did
not drink, and asked to be excused as
he had decided to drink no in

with enthusiastic applause.
R. R. Odell, a prominent Minnesota
republican and politician has joined the
democratic party this week, fearing that
if the republicans keep on ruining
America it will build up a greater aris

ever dreamed of, and it may take more
than two billions of money and a greater
number of lives than the civil war to
wipe it out. .
