The Post, published at Washington, in its issue of the Mth inst. has the fol lowing concerning the Cascade canal and locks : "The people of Oregon are in high spirits over the approaching completion of the Cascades on the Columbia river, which will open that stream to naviga tion," said Mr. I. N. Day to a Post re porter at the Ebbitt. Mr. Day is quite a young man of the hustling, enterpris ing Western typej and is one of the firm that secured the contract or com pleting the enterprise reierrea to Dy mm. "It is a work of vast magnitude," he said, "and means more to the inhabi tants of. Eastern Oregon than can be well understood in this part of the coun try. The construction of the locks and canal involves a total expenditure of $3, 500,000, the canal to be 3000 feet long, with locks and lift of twenty-four feet. Four massive gates are provided for, measuring 55 feet in height by 94 feet in width, being the largest lock gates in the world. One thousand men are em ployed in the enterprise, which is carried on principally in the fall and winter, as the work is annually submerged by the June floods remaining in that condition for about five months of the year. When the canal is finished it will give a navi gable water-way from The Dalles to the Pacific ocean, a distance of 200 miles. "There are millions of acres of idle lands in the eastern part of the state, fertile and productive and capable of supporting a dense population. That section is alluded to in our country as the 'Inland Empire,' and it has hitherto remained in an undeveloped state chiefly iroin lack o' transportation facilities. "The opening np of the Columbia river by -the construction of this canal will bring ;about a change of conditions that cannot fail to benefit this naturally favored ter ritory. The climate is mild and equable, "the summers not excessively hot, and the winters much milder than on the. -Atlantic coast. The scheme for develop- Ing this country originated with Senator Mitchell away back in '75. At thattime he was attorney for Ben Holladay, the then great transportation king of the Northwest, who had committed himeelf to the support of Mitchell for United States senator. Subsequently Holladay was seized with senatorial aspirations himself, forgetful of his promise to Mitchell. The latter, nevertheless, walked off' with the honors and shortly after his election had a brief and spirited interview with his former friend. "Holladay sneeringly said: 'You think you- are a pretty big man now, Mitchell, but what are you going to do for the people of Oregon, when you get to Washington?" - "Still smarting under the sense of in jury, Mitchell answered: 'One of the first things I shall strive to accomplish will be the building of a canal around the Cascades and give the people of in land HraivAn ViamaAI a! ma! .... transportation rates against your rail roads.' "The senator never forgot thas decla ration, and I think by January 1, 1896, his constituents will Bee a consummation of his long-cherished plan." DON'T REALIZE THEIR POSITION The most amusing thing about the Chinese situation is the- self-satisfied manner of the Chinese officials, and the confident manner in which they declare that Japan cannot do this, or cannot do that. They seemed utterly oblivious of the self-evident fact that Japan has their country at its mercy and can dic tate the terms of peace. - The latest statement is from Prince King who is credited with the following: "He questioned very seriously whether Japan could claim possession of the ter ritory she had conquered together with 400,000,000 taels indemnity. 'China," he said, 'stands upon principle, and Japan upon power. ' If Japan will meet her in a friendly spirit, the conclusion of peace will be possible. If her demands are exorbitant China will continue the fight.' He added he did not think Japan could overrun all the Chinese provinces, even if the war was continued." . Now that the senatorial question has been settled-by 4he election of -Hon. Geo. W. McBride, the people will feel grateful lindeed if they are. given A rest. They need;. Jf and , they y haver waited patiently for it for these forty days; but the aftermath is worse than the afflic tion. . The Portland San is mapping out a course of conduct for the new senator, which, it is DerhaDS unnecessary , to .. 1 , . t - f state, has silver trimmings all over it, Its dictation in that lino is already mak ings an already-tired public weary. The Oregonian, on the other . hand, is insist ing that McBride will "stand by the platform," and therefore recognize all money as being equally good, provided it is based on gold. We suggest that Senator McBride be given time to re- nrwer from the sudden shock to his nerves his election must have given him, and that the public be given a rest. We have McBride, and McBride has the office ; therefore we all have the office. Now then, let us give him time to pull himself together, and as for us newsnacer fiends, let us talk about something eood to eat, Iwrestle with spring poetry, decimate the early fish story, and cheerfully vie in seeing which community can prod ace the biggest egg or the earliest berries. The senatorial matter has lost its savor. Let the flavor of the plum, now that it is picked, be sufficient unto itself. Let's all take a rest. SOME OF THE OTHER SIDE. The battle at Salem is over, and won or lost, according to the position from which it is contemplated. It is perhaps as well to let it pass into the quiet sleep of oblivion ; but there .are some asser tions made, that cannot be sustained by the facts. One of these is that the anti- Dolph legislators blocked legislation and prevented many economic measures be ing adopted. In so far as maintaining one side of the dispute is concerned that may be true, but if true, is true of both sides. Let us take an- example The senate consisted of nineteen repub licans, eight democrats and three popu lists. Of the nineteen republicans. three were against Dolph and sixteen, a clear majority of the entire senate, and enough to pass any bill, were for Dolph yet tbe business of the senate was no better con d acted than that of the house. When the appropriation bill was passed by the house, the $20,000 item for pay ing tbe railroad commissioners was struck out. In the senate that action which was certainly in the interest of economy, was repudiated and tbe amount was put back in the bill by the senate, with its sixteen solid Dolph members. Who blocked that effort at economy? Another statement, that the Dolph men elected McBride, is not any more fully borne out by the facts. That he was nominated by Cleeton, a Dolph man, is true, but when tbe vote was taken, those who were opposed to Dolph voted for McBride, to a man. So that when the election was accomplished, it was by a vote of thirty anti-Dolph men and seventeen of that gentleman's sup porters. . It is useless to stir tbe matter up. It is settled, and we hope for the best, Recrimination's and disputes are not going to assist in healing the sore spots, and the sooner the whole question is dropped, the better. Each side can find lots of things to kick about, and they are creditable to neither. IT ADJOURNS MONDAY. Congress is down to its work in great shape just now ; but outside of the ap propriation and deficiency bills, little will be accomplished. Next Monday the session will expire, and the demo crats will step down and out ; it is hoped to remain out for an indefinite time. We can cheerfully say, without mental reservation, and not being prompted by malice, prejudice or ill will toward the soon to be late and sadly . lamented democratic congress, that its like never before met in legisla tive meditation. It failed to do any thing that it promised to do, and it did many things that it should not have done. It found the country prosperous, anditleaves.it with its business stag nant and its industries sadly crippled. It has saddled an interest-bearing debt of many mijlipns on the people. It has reduced the revenues of the government to a point that will cause still farther indebtedness, and it has violated every pledge made by the party by which it was placed in power. Every true dem ocrat is ashamed of it, and every repub lican regretfully sorry that the pitiful puny microbes of desolation were ever allowed to .inoculate the nation's capi tal with the seeds of damphoolishness. However, it dies Monday, and as it already smells to heaven, it will be buried deep, and while never forgotten, will be remembered only as a national disgrace. - It is said that Governor Lord holds that the legislature having failed to elect railroad commissioners he has the right to appoint the successors to the present board. While we are unalterably on- posed to commissions in general and railroad commissions in particular, we know of np reason why the present board should be superseded. They are all clever gentlemen, and can and will do all tbe work required of them as well as any one. If the commission is to be kept the present commissioners might as well be kept too. -They know what is required by reason of their salary fitting them, and should be let alone. j...

Savannah, Georgia, has been hayi ying a riot that only the utmost forbearan on the part of the militia prevented cul minating in bloodshed. It was caused by . a man named Slatterly, who claims to have been a Catholic priest, and his wife, who, it seems, pretends to have been a nun. . delivering a lecture in which they pretend to expose the se crets of tbe priesthood and of the con vent. Naturally tbe Catholics of that city were indignant, and unfortunately they let their indignation lead them into an attempt to prevent Slatterly or his wife lecturing.' Had they looked at the matter coolly, they would have realized that the attacks of such as Slatterly on relieion of anv form cannot hurt it. Ac cording to Slatterly's statement, he is man who has violated his solemn prom ises to the church, and his wife is a wo man who violated her vows to God, and forsook Him to cling to a traitorous ser vant. Who then would believe them? Such people serve to amuse tbe idle and spumy-minded, but what reasoning man heeds them.' Ineersoll attacks all re ligion, yet we. admire bis graceful dic tion and the beauty of the sentiment that he sometimes expresses, while we smile at his premises, laugh at his logic, and recognize at a glance the falsity his conclusions. of Our Catholic brethren should simply ignore Slatterly and such as be, for, like steam, he only becomes powerful when confined. Resistance to such as he but supplies the fulcrum for bis lever and furnishes the friction that enables him to move. Slatterly, a renegade his church, cannot harm that church by anything he may do, unless he again joins it. He is powerless for harm only when by such actions as those in Savan nah those fighting him make the foolish think he and his amount to something, Yet trifling as he is, there is a principle involved in the matter that cannot be permitted to be Bet aside. That is, the right, guaranteed under our constitution of free speech. Mr. Slatterly cannot go into the Catholic church to there express his opinions, but when he hires a hall be is entitled to talk as much as he pleases, on any . subject he pleases, as long as as bis language is decent; and as many as desire may go to hear him and believe or disbelieve his statements as suits, their pleasure. When this right is denied to Slatterly it makes it possible that the same rights may be denied to priest and preacher. Whether Slatterly is allowed to speak or not is trifling matter, but whether the right of free speech to every American citizens is to be abridged or denied is of vital importance. THE NEW RE1LLY BILL. Under the proposed modification of the Beilly funding bill, Bays the S. F, Call, the bond-aided roads will pay the principal of tbe government debt in cash, refund the accrued interest for fifty years at 2 per cent and extend the first mortgage bonds by a reissue, paya ble in installments through a period of fifty years with interest at 3 per cent, It is reported that this scheme finds favor with many opponents of the orig inal Beilly bill, and is likely to pass both houses of congress. It is a better proposition as far as the government is concerned, because it will pay into the treasury the principal of the second mortgage bonds. This is the bait which promises to book votes enough to carry the measure. For California, and the communites between San Francisco and Omaha, the sheme is just as bad as the original re funding bill. The companies will have to borrow the money to pay the princi pal, and the people tributary to the roads will have to pay it, principal and interest. Also, as heretofore, their busi ness interests will be held liable for the principal and interest of the, first mort gage bonds. .The stock of the two com panies will retain its existing status, and the present management will hold fast their control of the properties, with all the maladministration which that fact has involved - in the past and will imply for the future. The scheme also shuts off .the possibility of legal proceedings for the recovery of the millions wrong fully diverted by the managements. WILSON, POSTMASTER GENERAL. Ex-Congressman W. L. Wilson has been appointed postmaster-general in place of W. S. Bissell resigned. Mr. Wilson was elected to congress from West Virginia in 1882, and was closely connected with the tariff tinkering of Mills, assisting in perfecting what was known as the Mills bill. His name be came prominent through the fact that he was chairman of tbe ways and means committee of. the house and the tariff bill, under which the , government is now Bailing so smoothly, was prepared by him; though, to do him justice, it might be added, that it was so amended after leaving his hands that be failed to recognize it when Senator Gorman in troduced ' him to it after it had passed the senate. - -r. Sheriff Sears of Multnomah county and Senator McGinn had an encounter in Portland yesterday. Sears accused McGinn of sneaking a bill through the legislature reducing Sears' emoluments. McGinn, though ' surprised at being ac cused of trying to practice economy for the Btate, realized the enormity of the charge, and ita lack of foundation, and struck Sears in the face with his fist, Sears responded by striking McGinn on the head with his revolver. ' At this point bystanders separated them.. Sears went into a pawnbrokers shop, probably to "soak his head," while McGinn, so the Oregonian says, went down to the Turkish baths, and soaked his. VETOED THE BILLS. Governor Lord has vetoed senate bill No 99, giving Miss Iva Templeton f 5,000 on account of her leg being broken by fall through a rotten bridge, in Linn county, a few years ago, and house bill No. 14, giving mileage to sheriffs. . The first he thinks unconstitutional, and the last mischevious and contrary to the ex pressed policv of tbe people. The latter did not affect tbe sheriff of Mnltnomah county, who was expressely exempted from its provisions. We suggest that the 5th of March be declared a national holiday, or else that the November Thanksgiving be trans ferred to that date, for surely there is no one thing over which the nation ought to eo sincerely rejoice as upon the ad journment of congress. That is some thing for which indeed, all could give thanks. Dufur Doingr. The trees have commenced to unpack their trunks preparatory to donning their spring finery, while the willow pussies are coming out, telling us that crusty old winter has reluctantly taken his departure and tardy spring, fickle maid, with her smiles and tears, has at last taken her place. The snow has nearly disappeared leaving the grass quite green. The farmer's holidays are about over and he gladly welcomes plow time. In some places he is already out with his plow stirring the fresh, mellow earth 'The roads are in an almost impassable condition about Dufur and between here and The Dalles. " ' Mr. Peabody has made, his exit into the country on account of the smallpox scaie. The other night a large crowd of friends gave Miss Anna Dufur a pleasant surprise for her birthday. They were greeted with a cordial welcome, notwith standing their unexpected . arrival. Games of all sorts were soon commenced and the rooms were filled with the merry laughter of some who were busy at whist, others at Louiza, while the young people were kept merry with other games suggested by Miss Anna, who acted the part of hostess. She with her usual thoughtfulness saw that no one was lacking amusement. At an early hour the guests were invited to partake of ice cream, cake and coffee. The party broke up at a late hour, and all ex pressed their enjoyment of the evening. Among those who were present were : Dr Kane, Mr and Mrs C P Balch, Mr and .Mrs T H Johnston, Messrs G W, J C, J H and S B Johnston, J B McAtee, D S Miller, Jas Kennedy, O K and R D Butler, Will Cantrell, A Howie, J Stev ens, Mr and Mrs A J Dufur, A Gregg, Mesdames Adams, Slasher and E Dufur, Misses Carrie and Myrtle Markham, Edith and Maud Peabody, Anna and Daisy Dufur, Anna Heisler, Eva Slusher, Mary Douglass, Bessie Hastings, Ann Neal and Angie Phillips. Washington's birthday was celebrated at Dufur as only we Dufurites know bow. The school was given half a holi day and all enjoyed tbe bright warm sunshine with many thoughts of patriot ism concerning the veracious George, whose eventful life dated from that day 163 years ago, in sunshiny Virginia. In tbe evening the band favored a large crowd with a concert, which deserves much credit as to the management. Among those worthy of note was "Fore- paw's Aggregation" given by the band of fourteen pieces. "Mince Pie'' was composed of well chosen spices making it very palatable. Prof. Helfreich gave beautiful clarinet solo, "Comln' thro' the Bye," after which he gave In res ponse to an. encore, "Home Sweet Home," which was very appropriate and had the natural tendancy to rekindle the patriotic feelings 'inspired by the day. After the concert a dance was indulged until the "wee sma' hours" of the night. Misses Lela and Mamie Driver from The Dalles, spent the 22d at Dufur. Mrs. Adams left for Portland. M. J. Anderson has returned from Salem filled with republicanism, demo cratism, populism and all other isms to be got at the legislature. Quiz. The Boy as Barometer. Yesterday a. boy in this town, standing upon the heel of one boot for a center, described the circumference of a circle with the. toe of the other. It was a marble ring, and the spring's first and surest harbinger is here. The migratory birds may be deceived. The trees may swell their buds with a false joy at the deceitful breath of , the south wind. Waters may laugh merrily at their tem porary., release irom bondage, as tbe mouBe rejoices when the cruel cat lifts up her -tantalizing paw. . The sky and the earth and the, air may seem to read the signs of spring and be mistaken, bat the boy is nature's masterpiece. He does not err, in interpreting the sound of nature's voice. . ,.- . .'; :. ..'. When the season's change is first surely heralded, the boy is the herald. The marble ring is more faithful in its promise than the rainbow. There is no doubt now that the winter has done its worst. There may be bitter cold days, but there will be in the chilling -winds the chill of spring, and the warm days will outnumber the cold ones from now on. Before many weeks the browns of the prairie will be changed by the kalei doscope tf the season to a deep black, and then will come tbe livid green of the first foliage of tbe fields. The crowds in the suffocating "trailers" will spread to the grip car to keep company with that crazy girl who has been riding down town every morning in the biting north wind, wrapped in the placid delusion that she is improving her health. Easter will follow Lent, and apple blos soms will follow Easter, and women in their first white dresses .will come after the blossoraB, and when these events have been celebrated, the three beet things of the year will be gone, and summer will have come. ; -But the boy will foretell the coming of summer and tbe passing of spring bettev than all tbe manifestations of inanimate nature. After tbe marbles come the tops. After the tops, mud balls. After the mud balls, the boy wanders back to the water which he left, clinking his skates on his back, for the marble ground. ' The water of the pond, the creek or the river is never too cold for the boy who experiments with it when the ice is gone. For wading or for swimming water is always as warm as "dishwater" to the boy who feels in spired by the whisperings to try it. No boy ever was called into the water by his natural impulses too early in the spring. He may shiver. He may turn purple, and his old chickenpox radh may come out on bis snaking lees as be "dries" on his shirt among the willows just in leaf, but he will not admit an error. Nothing the boy does when in the open is too late or too Boon. : Tbe boy is nature's thermometer and barom eter. He has indicated tbe death of the winter. Tbe click of his marbles in the ring prophesies the coming of the spring. Kansas City Star. Tbe blue-bird is hailed as a harbinger of spring. It is also a reminder that blood purifier is needed to prepare tbe system for the debilitating weather to come. Listen and you will bear the birds singing : ."Take Ayer's Sarsapar- illa in March April and May.-" ..
