Eustis, who died Satur day, was s man of more than aver age ability and Lis career was on the whole a distinguished one. lie was southeru born, but attended the Har vard law school at Cambridge and after his graduation began practice in New Orleans. His public life was ever afterward as a servant of the state of Louisiana until his appoint ment to the embassy at Paris. He served in the confederate army, for the greater part of the lime on the staff of General Joseph Johnston. After the war Mr. Eustis resumed the practice of law and became a prominent political figure in his state. He was a member of the legislature during reconstruction and was one of the committee sent to Washington to confer with President Johnson in re- to draft a bill to be introduced in the nest legislature to require those who aspire to the editoiial chair, to pass an examination before being permitted to publish a newspaper in Oregon. The following questions are suggested for examination by the Moro Leader: Give an exsm;!e of your pro ficiency in the art of prevarication? Take an article from an exchange, and show bow you can mutilate it, turn it to utter nonsense, and pub lish it as your own? Give your private opinion of the man who comes round and bums a copj of your paper every week, and then lends it to Lis brother-in law? Explain how to manage ilh the same suit of clothes for two or three years? What is tbe best answer to give your wife when she wants a new bon net, which you know you can't afford to get her ? Give an example of your knowl edge of mending your own shoes? Give an example of the best way to approach jour local meichant, with a view to obtaining more credit? What plan can you adopt to please everybody, and succeed in pleasing nobody ? What is the best course to pursue when a six-footer comes into tbe of- doubtful if she did become aware of the fact whether sl.o could te per suaded that Ler presence was un desirable from a purely unselfish point of view. She is. In nine cases out of ten, a washedout blonde with a face devoid of any expression save that of intense excitement on seeing a couple of yaids of blue cloth made up into trousers and a coat. If you desire to make Ler very '-tired," to use her own term, ask her what she thinks of the world in general outside of military circles, and she will re gard you as an intolerable, wearisome run, or women, "who hasn't any sense." A joke wouldn't penetrate her unless blown into Ler with a Springfield bullet, or shot at her from a Holchkiss. She is as dense as a Point Bonita fogbank, and she hasn't an idea above a pair of epaulett?. Chaplain Mailley of the First Ne braska is a Populist, but comes out red bot for expansion and the soldiers who returned from the Philippines with him applauded him when be spoke for that policy last Sunday. He did this in Lincoln, Mr. Bryau's home, and if the latter doesn't wish tbe enthusiasm to spread he will have to hurry home at once. . .i . i gara 10 iue vexea prou.emi arising fic, w-lh a cub , hu st aQ(i blood out of reconstruction. He also served in tbe state senate and in 187G was elected to the United States senate. He was not seated till 1877 and served only two years. In 1884, however, he was elected for and served a full term. For the greater part cf bis senatorial career be was a prominent member of the committee of foreign affairs. While in the senate Mr. Eustis was not in cordial sympathy with Mr. Cleveland during the Iatter's first term. The senator from Louisiana did not approve of tbe president's civil service ideas, and while he was in the senate be could hardly be called a supporter of the executive. Later on they were drawn together and one of Mr. Cleveland's first ap pointments after his second inaugura tion was that of Mr. Eustis as our representative to France. He was in bis eye? If tbe aspirant can answer these questions, perhaps the association ' Can be makin' an editor outen him." SUPPRESS "SOLDIER GIRL." Irving M. Scott landed in San Francisco with o in bis pocket, savs the Spokesman Review. He is now one of the largest shipbuilders in the world and able to turn out such craft ! as the Oregon and Olympia. How is it that Scott could have done all this if he is chained down by what some are prone to call wage slavery? Orrgun Scenery. Who will suppress the "Soldier Girl ?" Who will tell her that she is ! i not wanted on the transports; that! Never was there such a demand for she has become a brazen evidence of views of Oregon scenery as this year.

The soldier girl , is a wpII fitted fr the r.lnre tr hod! loud-moutucci female or the I-want to education, culture, a knowledge of liciting secured a large number of orders. Tbe Telegram said concerning them : "One of the pictures of Mt. flood and the lake had been taken at sunrise. It shows the reflection of the mountain in tbe lake as plainly as it chows the mountain itself. One end of the lake is as calm as ean be, whlie a beautiful ripple plays on the other end. Good judges pronounce this one of the hand- French language and literature and abundant private means. He made a record tbroad, although some of bis addresses and intei views were criti cised, and returned to this country leaving a highly honored name among the French people. On the whole Mr. Eustis was one cf the ablest, most scholarly and best equipped men for public life that the South has produced in late years. Spokesman-Review. SAME OLD FOLLY. Tbe following eensible article, clipped from the Spokesman-Review, is tbe latest thing in the way of a lecture which that paper occasionally gitet to the farmers of the l'alous1 country: Another full carload of bam, bacon and lard trnved last week at Col fix from Omaha. These products the merchants will sell to farmers in the Palousc country, and the money paid for them will be a direct and ever lasting loss to this section. This means that the farmers in the Palousc are paying the Missouri or tbe Iowa farmer for his corn, for his labor of feeding it to tbe bogs, his profit, the profit of the stock-buyer who ships tho bogs to Omaha, the cost of packing and the packer's profit, the freight charges from Oma h to Colfax, and the profits of the j ibber and the retailer. This in the best farming and stock country on earth, and at a time when more or less wheat damsged by rains will be unsalable, and fit only to be fed to stock. How long will this piece of ex tra vtigance continue? How lorg must we ree trainloads ofporkrro ducts, poultry, e,'g, butter and cheese coming 2000 ini'es or more over plains and mountains, and mil lions of dollars which ought to be' kept at home sent east to pay for these products which should be pro duced on our own fertile soil? earnest pictures of the mountain and the meet some brass-buttons stripe, who lake ever made." listens for the sound of the siren. : No doubt these pictures w ill soon be QUALIFICATIONS FOR d.V EMTOR It is tta'e 1 that the Oregon Press Association will appoint a committee rushes to the nearest tugboat station and calmly presents herself to the captain with the declaration that ''she I.ai a friend on board the transport." Not one loldier girl out of twenty has a friend on the transport, or knows so much as the name of the cabin mess boy or the regimental mascot. She isn't going off to the ship to sooth the fevered brow of some poor sick private or to saj a few words of encouragement to the returning regular who wears no shoulder strap. She is simply look ing for an opportunity to force her cheeky self on sorre officer and get acquainted with him in spile of him self, so tbat she may be able to go ashore and gush over the number of lieutenants and captains she has met. The soldier girl has no particular choice of officers. She is willing to be introduced to anything that has legs, arms, a bead, and wears a sword. Not satisfied with one expedition to the "inbound steamer," she bobs up serenely every time a vessel with troops aboard is sighted, and then eoes through tbe same disgusting ex hibition of lack of femininity tbat characterizes her peculiar class. No one on the tug is a greater bother, and no one is more of the opinion that tbe steam craft in question was a?nt out for especial purpose ot al lowing just such females as herself a chance to make fools of themselves. I She pouts and stamps when people j with liuincss to attend to requests! speedy communication with the ship and a quick return to tbe slioie.

Everything must stop short when the soldier girl comes, and the military discipline of the regiments should be relaxed when this burdensome com bination of silk skirts and human gall flounces in view. TLe soldier girl is never intelligent. As a usual thing she docs not know when she is not wanted, and it is seen in every state in the Union, and many of them already occupy promi nent places iu tbe homos of our city.

Warner has been retained is presiding elder, Rev. Wood has been assigned to North Yakima, one of the best an J most flourishing charges in the district. Kev. Hawk, who for the past two years has been stationed at that place and who was previously at Goldtndale, was assigned lo the enurcn here. Mr. Hawk is said to be an ener getic worker and has had splendid suc cess in every church over which he has had charge, so that the Methodist peo ple here are more thaa eatiefied. sotss or TUK COSrEKKSCS. At 11 o'clock Monday morning memo rial services were held for three ministers' wives wbo had died during the year. The memoir of the late Mrs. Emma C. Wood, wife of Rev. J. II. Wood, was read by Rey. Dr. Ilines. Rev. W. J. White offered a resolution instructing the general conference to make it a part of the discipline that no one shall be aJmitted to church mem bership who uses tobacco. There was considerable merriment over the propo sition, hut im serious discussion. The resolution was lost. While the report of the committee on education was under consideration Bishop Vincent said be was in favor of a plan to establish in tbe etate university town a Methodist home, where young men from Methodist homes and families could live and be under good religious influence. This is in addition to any Methodist colleges and universities tbat may be established. Rev. Perry Chandler, of L Grande, Or., read the committee's report on Mormoniem. It was positive and ag gressive In its tone. It denounced' Congressman-elect Roberts and asked con gress to refuse to seat him. It also pro posed an amendment to the constitution of the United States that would keep the rights of citizenship from polyga niiats. Tho bishop said he hoped the conference would vote with a vim on this report and it was adopted with enthu siasm.

N ER VITA MEDICAL CO. Clinton A Jackson Sts., CHICACO, tU. Sold by Blakeley & Houghton, The Dalles, Oregon. An adjourned meeting of the ouncil was held last night at the lecorder'a of fice, at which were present beside Mayor Kuck, Councilmen Keller, Clongh, Gun ning, Stephens, Shackelford and John ston. It was ordered by the council that C. J. Crandall be instructed to survey a new street from Alvord to Fulton and make specification of same and that the recorder advertise for bids. We are inr formed that this survey has really been made and that further survey ia meant to be made from Alvord to Clay, the former being the avenue on which I. C. Nickalsen's residence is situated, and the latter the street where S. B. Adams lives. A new street has long been needed there, and will be a great con venience. The council, made a commendable move last night, when after a speech by J. i. Moore, they voted to assist in im proving the Are system. Mr. Moore has been one of a committee which has been soliciting among onr citizens to procure the ten percent reduction which would be made by the insurance company were a chemical engine purchased by the city, the saving in insurance to be donated toward the engine. He ex plained that in all the chemical engine, fire alarm (consisting of seven boxes) and a book and ladder truck would foot up to about 240O. From all indications when a canvass has been made, tbe dance given, etc., they will be about 400 short, so that he recommended that the city appropriate $100. On motion of Gunning, seconded by Stephens, the council so ordered. This shows that the onncil fully appreciated the efforts of the Ore department In onr behalf. An ordinance was then passed whero by bootblack stands and shoe polishers were granted license by paying ," quarterly. Coiif-h introduced an ordinance amending ordinance No. 285, which pro vides lor the fire department, the same providing that the fire police patrol be admitted as members of the department, winch was accepted. According to the present ordinance the following are members: Jackson Engine, o. 1; Columbia Hose, No. 2; East Dalles Hose, No. 3; Mt. Hood Hose, No. 4; The Dallas Hook and Ladder, No. 5; South Side, No. 6. OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS- Th Varluo Grade and M n Taogat 11 7 Tela! Enrollment 696.

Clifton, and Mrs. Almira Burget were united in marriaze, Rev. Bailey officiating. A large number of members were present; but no d ubt the church would have been crowded had it been known that it was to be made such a happy oc casion ; but with the exception of a few cloee friend?, all weie greatly surprised when at the close of the meeting W.

Not only his congregation and friends, but all who have known the bride for so many years, extend their congratulation and best wishes for their future happi ness. DISSOLUTION NOTICE.
