The official report of the recent -eleventh convention of the Young Peo ples Society of Christian Endeavor, just published, furnishes some very interest ing data. This convention was an event to which the attention of religious peo ple all over the civilized world was turned. Simply in the matter of num bers it was a wonderful convention. There were 25,000 attendants upon it. Theeewere drawn from 21,000 societies scattered over the globe. There were delegates from Aeia, Africa, Australia and Japan. - Less than ten years ago this society had a total membership of 500. ov it numbers nearly a million and a half. The amazing growth may be partly due to the breadth and liberality of the con ditions admitting to membership, for no distinctions of sectarianism are made. But this would hardly .account for all the sudden and enduring increase, nor ior the steadily growing popularity of the institution. - The society stands unique today among religious organiza lions, and the work it can accomplish when it wishes may be reckoned aa an important factor in the affairs of the world. Possibly a good deal of its sue cess depends upon the youth, vitality and enthusiasm characterizing all its work. In the day when youth is tri umphant it has given youth, men and women alike, something to expend en ergy upon. Nominally, the meeting in Hew York was to assist the generation of enthusiasm. If the enthusiasm is to be kept up as heretofore, who can pre diet what the size and influence of this aggressive body may become? WAS IT A LANDSLIDE It was an avalanche, and the republi cans have alighted, dismounted, got down. The figures in the electoral col lege resemble those of 1860 when the democracy was put to flight by the re sult of the election which changed the administration for the first time in many years, and brought on the "irrepressible conflict," only there will not be any the scenes of 1860-'61 to follow this election The country is too prosperous to sustain any serious losses because of this sudden change of administration. As to the causes of the landslide they are numer ous, and may generally be traced to the lack of judgment and the force of cir cumstances such as "downed" Matt Quay, froze James G. Blaine out of the cabinet, and made Steve Elkins and "Calico" Charley Foster right bowers of the president. Set it down for a fact that Cleveland will be the next president of the United States. It is a bitter pill for republicans to swallow, but it is rolled out at a time when the country is in' the most pros perous condition it ;waa ever known to be, which may be a source of satisfac tion for thoughtful people ; but it does not explain the mysteries of the human mind which baffles analysis at the pres ent time. . The Chboxiclb shall remain as loyal to the principles of protection and reciprocity under the free trade British amalgamation administration of Cleveland as possible, and await the ruinous results which surely must follow the errors of yesterday. Some time ago an able editor in New "York, following the lead of an able mag- azine writer, composed a rather gru upy editorial discussing the sentiments ex isting between America and England. -"Do we hate England?" he asked, and his answer was: "We do." The topic is' again brought up by the announce ment of a truly marvelous change in the attitude of the London Times, which in the white heat of an election has found time to say things in praise of America, There are courteous editorials about us and good-natured allusions to our poli tics. And there are articles recalling the main points at issue and denying that the two peoples are unfriendly. It must be- confessed that the most inter' esting and diverting features of the . Times, heretofore, have been itsanimad- -versions touching all things American. Now that this newspaper is so strangely and unaccountably mollified we shall have to depend for our fun upon the loutish belaborings of the Saturday Re view. But the question recalled : that of our alleged hatred for England ; is idle.' We do not much care whether iiaigland hates us or not, and we are certainly much too busv with our own affairs to hate England. Strong confidence is felt at the state department that, in view of the presi dent's deep interest in the matter, of the long confinement which the prison era have already suffered and of their certified good character in the United States, the present Gladstone govern ment will listen favorably to the appeal of the government of the United States and grant the imprisoned Irish-Americans liberty to return to the country of their adoption. Numerous representa tions have been made to this govern ment in their behalf, and President Harrison's sympathy - has been so 'aroused that he has directed that the legation in London bring the matter to the earnest consideration of the British government with a view to securing such modification of the sentence as will bring about their release. The Siletz reservation has 180,000 acres, for which the government propose - .to pay $142,000, or about eighty cents per acre. A large portion of this is fine timber land, the farming land all hav ing been allotted. The government pays $75,000 in cash and the balance will -be left on interest for the benefit of the Indians. When the allotment of lands on this reservation was made each Iu dian received eighty acres, there being 532 of them. Surveys have just been made and the allotment completed. . W. T. Stead, editor of The Review of Reviews, has taken up with his accus tomed vigor the cause of Mrs. Maybrick, the hapless American woman now lying in Woking prison because she either did or did not poison her husband, and the English lawyers have never been able to find out whether she did or not. So, reversing all law and precedent which hold an accused person innocent until he has been proved guilty, these brilliant British judges sent Mrs. Maybrick to jail. They confessed to having, a preju dice against her because she had been gossiped about. That of itself unfitted them to judge her case, but on the strength of it they condemned her to imprisonment for life. Mr. Stead makes a powerful appeal for the woman in hip magazine. "Ought Mrs. Maybrick to be Tortured to Death?" is the title. He says in his paper absolutely that both he and Sir Charles Russell have received the deathbed confession of a man in South Africa Henry Wilson who says he aud a woman whose name is not given put arsenic in Mr. Maybrick's medicine during his last illness. If this is true, then the cruelty and meanness of so called English justice appears more vividly thun ever. Mr. Stead is right in saying that the matter may become a cause of diplomatic complications with the United StateB. The United States will not see one of its citizens "tortured to death." Stead says Mrs. Maybrick will die unless soon released. Mrs. Nat Collins has arrived at Choteau from Chicago. She has been east with two cars loads of beef steers. This is Mrs. Collins' second trip east with cattle, her first experience having been made last season. She beinir i only lady in the state who has s!::pi.-: cattle and followed them through the i train to their destination, is now known throughout the country as tin OttiI Queen of Montana. She had forty-two head of steers this trip. Mrs. ColliiiH saw her cattle unloaded, weighed and sold at the stock yards, and in reckoning up the proceeds when the item of shippers fees, amounting to $7.50, was reached, Mrs. Collins entered a protest against it being allowed, claiming that she was her own shipper and that if there were any fees for it she wanted them herself. And she got them. She has gone to her ranch to arrange for the gathering and shipment of another bunch of horses. Experiments are to be made atTa coma with an electric road on which its inventor claims cars will be able to make 200 miles an hour. 'The track will be completed and tests will be made' by the 10th.

There are a number of strong points in favor of the Tuna Hedge as the fence of the future, the advantage of this, kind of a tence max De Driefly mumerateu as follows: It becomes a perfect barrier agamert all kinds ot domestic animals after three years growth ; does not sap or im poverish the ground, beinga strict ly atmospheric plant, and will not grow from the seed or by cutting the roots hence will not spread, it grows only to a certain uniform height and therefore does not require trimming, it has been tnorougniy ana successluily tested in northern climates and does tiot kill out in the winter time, it serves the double purpose of usefulness and ornamen tation, as it is an evergreen and blooms during three months of the year, an in vitation is extended to thoroughly test its merits, and every one will be con vinced that it possesses all the ad van t ages claimed for it. Messrs. Johnson & Payne are now taking orders for the Tuna Hedge and have met with uniform success. Any one wishing a livinggrow- mg tence something tnat will not spread ana win De a tence tor all time to come should give their orders now and get tneir fence started this fall. , OUMMOXS.-In the Circuit Court ol the State U of Oresron lor the County of w s.o. T. C. Fsrgher, 1 Plaintiff, Governor Pennoyer has made the fol lowing appointments to membership of the state board of agriculture: S. H. Holt, of Phoenix, to succeed himself, he having been appointed about a year ago to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of D. S. K. Buick ; William Galloway, of McMinnville, to succeed himself; and A. F. Miller, of Portland, a former member of the old agricultural society, to succeed Gaines Fisher, deceased. The run of salmon in the lower Co lumbia has been unnsuallv large this fall and many have been- taken. The Telegram reports that recentlv two fish ermen on the Cowlitz river succeeded in 1 capturing 710 salmon in two hours. The total weight of the fish was nearly four tons. This is a big fish story, but the truth of it is vouched for. It was not so bad for two hours' work. A grain blockade is threatened at Tacoma. Wheat from eastern Wash ington arrives at the rate of about 125 carloads every twenty-four hours, and the elevator and warehouse accommoda tions are not sufficient for such a large supply." It is estimated that Tacoma grain shipments this year will exceed those of last season by at least 1,000,000 bushels. A. 3. Wall, Defendant. To A. J.
