An Oregon paper suggests that Mr.
Corbett, knowing that he has but

The death of Hon. Thomas F.
Bayard, late embassador to the court
of St. James, is most sincerly de

great men.
Sunday at 7:30 o'clock s a freight
train was passing through Cascade Locks,
the engineer noticed a man sitting on
the platform in close proximity to the
track. The whistle was blown, and ex
pecting that the man had taken warn
ng, the train passed on ; bat, as the nn
fortunate man waB in no condition to
heed anything, the cow-catcher struck
him on tbe head, whirling his body in
tbe air and depositing it some distance
away on the platform. When picked up
he was already dead, evidently not hav
ing known what struck him.
It seems that the man, whose name
was .Lotus Peterson, was quite well
known at tie Locks and was considered
industrous and bard working. He bad
been employed by a man since August,
who Sunday morning paid him $11, with
which he purchased about $3 worth of
provisions, spending the remainder for
liquor, which accounts for the sad acci
dent which caused bis death. Becom
ing intoxicated, he sat down on the plat
form and was sound asleep, bis body

J,ven this factor - of strength asserting
itself abroad, American values remain
unchanged, although it has a tendency
to stimulate confidence among holders
of wool. Many believe we are nearing
the end of tbe long depression through
which the wool trade has passed during
the last several months and that better
times will soon come to stay. . i .
All who are interested in wool must
bear in mind that' we are fast consuming
tbe old stocks vt woolen goods and woo!,
and when these are absorbed, the new
clip will be in demand. It is reported
that another line of 200,000 pounds of
Australian wool has been re-shipped,
and other lots will soon follow. We
have no reason to change our opinion
therefore in regard to the future of the I
