Jh mitt conclusion hat at last been arrived br the administration after aeveral month of vacilating nonsense, which the government haa succeeded in demonstrating the fact that it has pot naval courage lo enforce law a let it is enacted by its highest legisl tive body and declared constitutional bv its hichest legal authority. After months of weak kneed bickeriug and diplomatic flim-flam in which the Chinese Six Companies bluffed the government into a complete back-down, the administration haa realy braced up jt backbone sufficient to start five of the impudent, almond-eyed subjects of Confucius on their way to the flowery kingdom. The ball was started rolling the other day by tha action of a eensi ble California Judge, who had the courage lo decide that the Chinamen brought before him were here illegally and iu violation of law, and wuo ac cordingly ordered their deportation without any more ceremony. The de portation will continue until the $15, 000 which is all that is left of the $50,- 000 appropriation for that purpose, exhausted, after which the matter will be solely in the hands of cougreaa it self. Closelj following the announce ment that unregistered Chinese are to be deported comes the report that the Chinese Six Compauiea are mak Ing overtures to the government for stay of proceeding in order lo allow Chinamen time to regUter and comply with the provisions ef the law requir ing them to do to. This action of the Chinamen it limply an illustration of tho fact that they are willing to torn ply with the law it it U necessary in order to remain in the country, but will not recognize our laws unless rad ical measures are adopted by the ad- jniuibtration. Is auditing the bills which are pre sented to the county court, the urgent need of a law regulating the manner of summoning jurors, judges ol elee tion, etc., is apparent at a glance. Judge Blanchard, of the probate court, closely estimates the expense of the county for this particular item at $2,- 000 per annum, eighty per cent of which could easily be saved to the county by a statute authorizing the sheriff to summon such persons bv jnail, using regiaterd letters or special delivery stamps instead of calling npon each one in person and charging the county ten cents for milage. The county ia now well supplied with post offices and if the sumnunB is mailed at the proper time the party summoned is reasonably sure lo receice it in time to appear when wanted, and in the event of failure it is not a matter of such vi tal importance as to cause very serious inconvenience. A law of this kind would effect a considerable saving . to the county, and we recommend that our representative prepare a bill of this kind for consideration by tho state leg islature. Deputy president is a position un known to the constitution of the United States, but it practically exists all the same, and is filled by Secretary Iiamont, who, while nominally at the head of the war department, really has very little to do with its business; his numerous duties as deputy presi dent leaving him no time, even if he had the inclination. Little time as be has given to the wftr department since he entered the cabinet, it is probable that he will give less in the future, as the statement was this wee it semi officially made that a democrat was be ing sought with the ability to perform the duties of secretary of war and the willingness to accept the position and salary of assistant secretary, the object being to allow Dan Lament to con tinue drawing the salary of secretary whiles performing none of the work pertaining to that position. "Reform" comes high, but the democratic admin istration is bound to have it , There Is little if any doubt that the administration intends to rigidly en forces the provisions of the Geary law requiring Chinese resideuts of this country to register or sufTer deporta tion, ; The Attorney-general has given explicit instuctioQS to United States marshals lo arrest and bring every un registered Chinaman in their district , to a designated point fur shipment to China, and there is no disposition on the part of any revenue officer to shirk the instructions of the department. There are available for this purpose jout f 15,000, and active measures will be taken to enforce the lavf while it lasts, after which the fulfillment of the law rests entirely with congress. Fear that the Chinese government will re taliate when an attompt is made to enforce the law lias iiroaiptod the gov eminent to make arrangements for tivnilieuirg the flayal fleet at the China station, and the Baltimore and two other vessels ore on the way to lhat place. CoNdRKSSKAH W. C. P. BrBCKKS BKDOK, of Kentucky ,is now the deleud ant in a suit for seduction, preferred by Miss Madeline Pollard, his mistress, whom h represented as his fiance and a such introduced into high Kentucky society. Besides being sued for Bed uc lion Breckenridie has been severely denounced by peopU who he imposed hit mistress upon, and a duel or two is it expected as an outcome of the very unsavory affair. Senator Mokqan a concurent reso Intiou for the appointment of a joint committee of seven senators and seven representatives lo investigate the en lire financial system of the country and report to congress what legislation it necessary to prevent periods of alio, genoy tucn at the country haa just passed through, has been favorably re' ceived and if it be not antagonised by the adminit t rat ion it may go through, j - Those democratic who have been accustomed lo accusing the rrpublcan parly of sectionalism should look at the organisation ot the house- the speaker and nearly two-thirds of the committee chairmen, including most of the important ones, from the south nd forever keep silent. A number of geutlemeu interested in protecting industries have this tuld the house ways and means committee what the result would be if the tariff is lowered or intirely removed in some cases entire destruction of industries, and in all cases lower wages for Amer ican workmen. Congress must appropriate the nee etsary seven millions to deport the un lawful Chinese residents. Clear them out of the country and perhaps a white man will be able to earn bread far hit starving family. CLATSKAMK, Wm. Howatson and Phil Johnson. of Kuappa, are in towa this week. Mrs. Tho.

We understand that Georee Havs ha disposed of the balance of his real "estate, near frisk's. He found buyers in some of the Finn families who want to get on a lit tle higher ground than they have on the prairie. We understand that B. F. Van is offering his butchering establishment and general meat market for sale, expecting to leave town and go to the farm In the Nehalem valley, where his father recently died, to take care of his mother, who feels that she would not like to leave the old place during the remainder of her dav. Frank, while doing his duty, is offering good induce ments to some one to carry on the butch ering business in C'latskarie, Oeorge Jones, wife and child eave Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Dixon a surprise, lu.it week, coming all the way from Missoula, Montana, to visit them, after a separation of several years. Mr. Jones is a conductor on a division of the Northern railway and his wife is a niece of Mr. Dixon's. The vis itors reached the residence of their aged relatives entirely unannounced and were obliged to introduce themselves before their identity could be established. When known, however, they so delighted their uncle and annt that ther appoip.I it vrnv young in the memory of other years, and went aronnd the house with the surightli ness of youth, nearly. The visitors re mained until Monday, looking aronnd the neighborhood, eating plums, which they very much enjoyed and thought thev were the finest they had ever sai n, and enjoying nit vw, which is line irum mr inxons place. They were full of pr.ii.se for Oregon except in one particular. They hurt our feelings by saying our roads were not good. Biding to Dixon s in a cart, they seem to have that so impressed ou their ininds that it was frequently referred lo by them. It was too bad that our county roads should be so lightly spoken of, but "teeing is be- liering," jar. . Jones thinks. A Tklnsr ( Keep at Htnt. Borne years ago we were very muoh sub ject to severe spells of cholera morbus, and now when we feel ony of the svuiptorus that usually preceed that ailment, such as sickness at the stomach, diarrhea, etc., we become scary.

' Last week's storm caught considera ble hay and grain in the field. Bert Seffeit is the lucky man. Got all his hay iu the day before the storm. The thunder storm last Friday was tho heaviest known in this part of the country iu many years. Alfred Mott and family last week moved into their new house which looks quite coxy. Seotinn Foreman Demurest hat a crew of men on the track now after being laid off about a month. A. A. Merrill has rented hit uncle Lyman Merill's farm for a year, and moved there with hit family last week. A child of Robert dimming it very sick at present with summer com plaint. It ia our earnest hope lhat he may recover. One good thing the recent rainstorm hat done U to clear the atmosphere of the obnoxious smoke. Well, "Us an ill wiud that blowt no good." Forest fires have done no damage In this neighborhood this year. The older people) get, the more they know how to bum slashings. Edwin Merrill sold ten acret of land lo A. Widger, of St. llohuia, who has a crew of men putting up a dwelling. Mr. Widcer will add quite a family to the neighborhood. Tho story comes from Xeer City of a young man who takes a four-munih's-old child to school for the teacher to te h, but it ia more proba ble he is anxious for the teacher to know that be is a competent wet irse. Th os. Saindan has dug a well in the town and fuund water al lh depth of forty-four feet, but ho will d;g still deeper. He used the saloon building for a curbing; and this is tho surest way of running a saloon in the ground. We aie sure ha hat a saloon in the well for there is a notice on the windlass "o minora allowed in here." There are certain hunters in this neighborhood who make it their bn&i- nest to sit on the Merrill lake bridge mid shoot ducks that make their home in the lake. Those parties should bn aware that there is a state law against shooting on the puulic highway. It is our opinion if lliose patties do not stop this practice the law will be fully enforced and proba bly by the grand jury. The gray sqirrel has become quite a uuisance in this vicinity and it might be possible that someone will ask the county court to pul a price on their scalp and oblige ihu-taxpavcr to fur- uibii the small boy a chance to make some spending money, n ml un rxense tor tresspassing on torhiddcn grimml. W think thete may be a better way to exterminate these pests limit through the c itinty court; f.ir exam ple, let the farmer whose farm is in feBted let some hunter have Ilia privil ege of hunting, providing he will also hunt for the squirrels. In this way one(kinii of game will pay for destroy ing another. Or, if it in neces.-ary raise a money tux, and tho county! court to set the value of the bounty to be paid ou the scalp, then the ' county court should charge it up to the tanner on whose land the scalp was taken, inasmuch us these ver min do not destroy anything hut farm produce, und they generally abide ou farms that are cultivated. It will not. therefor, be just to ask the taxpayers to contribute to the fund of extermin ation. SIAINKVUIiE. Frank Mires, of Bay View, was here Sunday.
