ItowcU.oI Stayton, write! to the Marion, County Democrat op losing the repeal ot the exemption of indebtedness. Mr Powell is of the opinion that all the trouble lies in the - faotthat the assessors do not assess . property at its full face value as re quired by law. We cannot see how it would help matters, says the Derao- crat,tobav a full value assessment, . when all tha dishonest man has to do is to hand In another bunch of indebt edness. Placing a high or just value j on property would, only compel the 'sSoncst man to pay more taxes, while the dishonest ones would escape, just a they heve heretofore. As to the mortgage tax law, it is a cumbersome : and useless thing, for the reason that no law can possibly be devised where by the borrower can avoid paying tax. If t is not paid as a direct tax it will ' be as a brokerage, "accommodation," , i m( whatever (one has a mind to call It The money-lenJer will get his price j ior his mouey, anil tle only way to bring down that prlee is to frame laws 1 that will invite competition in money- lending that, in short, will bring cap i ilal into instead of driving it out of the state. Such laws wonld be of more benefit to Oregon than any ex hibit at Chicago. AccoBMSCf to the Astoria Herald the .contract for the construction of the jUtoria-Guble railroad has been signed. The syndicate which proposes v' to build the road is composed of New - York capitalists, with a few excep- J tions, and the proposed route is from Croble down the Columbia through AUerbrook and across Young's bay, with the coast terminus at Flavel ''Cltyi few miles below Astoria. The Mibt has always claimed that the first railroad to Astoria would follow the ' bank of the Columbia from a connec tion with the Northern Pacific and now our opinion seems to be verified by this latest action of the Astoria railroad projectors. In the first place ihi, distance to trans-continental con nection is lees than half by this route than any other f and, secondly, the line traverses a comparatively easy ' ' country to construct a road. While it is true that little credence is put in Astoria railroad projects, yet each Proposition, with time, brings the mat sr nearer reality, and our people need not be alarmed nor surprised at any thing thai may accrue from the sign ing of this new contract. ' "?asK is no apparent reason why tlieowners of high land in Oregon and ',V'i!iingtOn should not make a snug sum -of money by raising the k&iif winter apples.

It iccms Unit Don Dickinson was sent here by Mr. Clove land to inform the dumocrulio loaders in the house Hint there whs no occa sion for them to worry about (lie tariil us it wna his intention to have a turill hill nil ready to be passed presented to the house of the Fifty-third congress as soon as it comes together. There was Borne very plain talk among tho democrats in both house and senate when this messnge was delivered to them, not the least significant of which was the Intimation llint it is in the power of the present congress to com pel the calling ot an early spring ses sion of the next congress. Don Dick inson very wisely waited until just be fore the recess beforo he' delivered his momentous message. The good feel ing engendered by tho holidays may result in cooling the blood of the in dignant democrats sufficiently to pre vent an open outbreak when congress comes together on the 4th of January, but the message will not be forgotten, and if Mr. Cleveland persists in his present intention as to furnishing con gress with a ready-made tarin bin, open war will probably be declared against him by his party iu congress. A short time ago when Congressman Breckinridge, of Kentucky, stated his opinion that the new tariff bill ought to be prepared by Mr. Cleveland, it was thought that he was only making use of a bit of flattery to get deeper into Mr. Cleveland s good graces, but now it is believed that the opinion was made public at Mr. Cleveland's re quest, as a "feeler" of puhho sec fl uent. .. There is a mistaken idea prevalent as to the object of the committee ap pointed by a caucus of republican senators, of which Senator Hoar is the cbaiiman and Senators McMillan, Chandler, Teller and Mitchell are members. The republican senators are to a man of the opinion that no outsiders, and least of all U. 8. sena tors, have any right to interfere with the election of senator by any state legislature. This committee will have nothing whatever to do with influenc ing the election in any state legisla ture ; but it will thoroughly post itself upon every meve taken in those states in which attempts are being made or have been made to change the polit ical complexion of the legislature, so that when the credentials of any im properly elected U. S. senator shall be brought . here it will be prepared to present evidence to show that he is not entitled to -a seat; and it was solely with a view to having this evi dence collected thiit the committee w is formed. Senator Chandler says of the situation : "I do pot consider the dem ocratic chances of controlling the senate to be one in a hundred. The republicans now have a majority of eight, and it will take four democrats to wipe it out Tho only votes they will have will be the senators from New York and Wisconsin. If Mr. Kyle is not to be counted with the democrats they will have 41 members ; if he is with them, 42. In some of these states the democrats are claim ing the republicans have an absolute majority, and in others it appears that tbe populists have the balance of power. . Nowhere is there visible a sufficient number of votes . to give them, as democrats, control of the next-l U. S. Senate." It is said that Senator Peffer will vote with the republicans against a reorganization of the senate. Jerry Simpson has gone home with his bead full of schemes concocted by Gorman to get himself elected to the senate, and should he succeed he would belong body and soul to Gor man, unless he violated pledges which those who ought to know say he has. made. DIED FROM EXPOSURE. diaries Fredericks Found Dead In . Scappoose Creek, last Tuesday Charles Fredericks, of Dixie, Washington connty , wa found dead in South Scappoose creek, about a mile from Anderson's place. Fredericks left his home on Thursday of last week with tbe intention of going to Portland. After he had gone some distance he missed bis way in the snow and wandered off into the hills in a northeasterly direction. On his not returning home when expected, a searchingparty started' out to look for him. Tbe party followed his tracks into the Scap poose mountains, over hills and canyons, and in the great depth of snow until Tues day afternoon , when they found the lost man lying dead in Scappoose creek, as above stated, lie bad evidently taken to the bed of the creek in order to avoid tbe tedious traveling in tbe snow, and wan dered on without food or rest in tbe chilling atmosphere until death from starvation and exposure ended his sufferings. Justice Blscksley, acting coroner, went to Scap poose yesterday to hold an . inquest, if necessary, and np to press hour had not returned. niBBIED, STANWOOD HOWARD At the Orien tal hotel in St. Helens, by Justice Wakes ley, on Monday, December 26, Mr. Thos.

'Time and tide waits for no man," saith the old adage. I think this is only partially true, as the "tied" will wait for tbe man at the divorce mill, while time does not seem to fiy rapidly enough for their purposes.

Tha telegraph company claimed that their wire was down at the time and it was several hours before tbe message could be sent. The court held that this being the case the company should have at once notified the senders in order to give them a chance to uae another line, and In consequence gave the plaintiffs judgment for the full amount of. their claim. ; '(winter Prize Piciuro Puzzle.
