Helen, October 1.1, 1893 Thk appalling result! of the Idle storms in Louisiana compels one to pause ia sober contemplation of it wful fatality to both life and proper!)' and ask if these repeated plagues of storm and contagion are not a special dispensation of providence wrought upon the unhappy people of that tricken land to appease divine wrath which may have been excited by die violation of some great law either human on divine. These repeated great catastrophe are certaioly not the result of natural causes which could have their inception only in (he nut' nral elements peculiar to that smitten shore. These afflicted people may be the victims of a fatal conspiracy of the elements, bat for whatever cause they may be afflicted their sufferings are certainly unusual and the loss of life appalling. There is no way of telling what the total loss of life biu been, nor will the world ever have any cenception of the cousequetit suffering and devastation resulting from the storm. Latest estimates place the number of lives lost at 2000 but if anything like an accurate account is ever obtained it is believed that these figures will be raised several hundred. The accounts of the terrible sufferings of the survivors enlists the sympa thy of the entire world and arouses the conviction that those who found a grave beneath the troubled waters have met, by far, the most merciful fate. The few survivors of the deluged dis tnct find themselves in the most piti able, destitute condition possible to imagine,and if prompt assistance is not at hand many of them will follow their friends across the waters which are never tossed by angry tempests, it has been found impossible to secure all the bodies for burial, as many of them are still beneath the waters and it is greatly feared that their rapid decomposition will breed a contagion which will be more deadly in effect than was the forces of the elements. As a result of the recent anti-Chinese agitation a number of proposi tions have been made by those ioter ested, soma of which will probably result in some kind of a more or less satisfactory settlement of this very vexing problem. The late propeiiion to exteud the time for registration was made at the request of the Chi nese Six Companies in order to give time to ascertain as near as possible what per cent of the Chinese now here and unregistered is needed to perform the work that is usually done by Chinese laborers.- The proposition of the Six Companies is this: There are about 150,000 Chinese laborers now in the country about half of whom are, on account of anti-Chines agita tion and other causes, continually idle. It is the desire of the Six Com panies that these idle men should be deported, for several good reasons. With a few exceptions these China men were brought here by the Six Companies who paid for getting them into the country with the understand ing that the companies were to guar antee them a living and labor at a certain price per day, reserving a per cent of their wage until their passage money was all paid. For various rea sons thousands of the coolies have not been able to pay their debts to the companies and as the companies are obliged to support them nntil they can do so, it has been decided to make the closest possible estimate of the num ber that caa be kept constantly at work and leave the superfluous ones to the tender mercies of the Geary law. With this end in view the Six Com panies have aeked for an extension of time in which to make the allotments for each state and town or city, and the number thus allotted will be regis tered and remain in the- country. - AH the others will be deported so soon as the administration can perfect ar rangements to that end. South Ambbicas dispatches indicate that the war-loving people of that country are enjoying, to the fullest ex tent, their abnormal propensities for revolutions, war, bloodshed and pillage. Brazil has lately been convulsed with enternecive revolution on a large scale, and the total destruction of the splen did city of Eio Janiero, by the revolu tionists, aud the attendant slaughter of thousands of its inhabitants, was only averted by the intervention of American and European men-of-war, which 'had been sent there to protect the interests of subjects of those coun tries, and which vessels threatened to tun their guns out on Ihe victorious rebels if the latter did not immediate ly stop shelling the city. Just what these people are fighting about would be pretty hard to define and a grett deal more difficult for anyone else to understand, but they are probably fighting because fighting has become such a passion with them that if they did not fight they could not enjoy trood health. Several other states down there are figlitiiiff ju' because Brazil is, and because they do not want to be out of fashion. If these slates could bo brought utidur the control of soinu civilised nation and made to con form to its laws there could soon be built up on the South Amer ican continent one of the richest aod must beautiful couutrics on earth, but so long as these people are permitted to govern, or more properly, misgovern themselves, there will uevcr bo any thing but war and rumors of war. MOKDAY was "Chicago Day" at thf Columbian exposition and with triu pride and local patiiotUm, characteris tic of the Chicago people, the day tva made memorable at the fair by wit nessing the largest attendance in it history. The admissioui up to 11 :30 P. M. were 751,026, over three quarter of a milliuu, undoubtedly the greatest number of people over congregated in one place. The great, spacious build ings were filled to their greatest atpsc ity and the surrounding grounds were one great, throbbing, palpitating mass of humanity. Accidents were neces sarily numerous, and many of them fatal. At one or two points a jam oc curred, and despite the efforts of the guards several women fainted and were crushed to death. One hundred nd twenty-five accidents were re ported at the hospitals, a few of which resulted fatally. Chicago never docs anything by halves, and this is an ill ustration of what enterprise, tact and business ability can accomplish. The windy city quickly jumped into tho first city of the nation and it bus been done by the energy of her citizens who possess the happy faculty of knowing how to invest a dollar to make it re turn two or thre dollars. Prop. Roek's free trade talk is about on a par with the other rot he pieaches to the misguided people with whom he demagogues. Just how republicans, who have become so far lost to consciousness os to join the peoples' party, can swallow, without salt or seasoning. Prof. Itorfe'g free trade demagogy, is a little indistinct. Still, where little is expected little is required, and certainly very lifle can be expected of a man whose lack of ommon intelligence would permit him to affiliate with a party whose car- inal principals are composed of no belter material than is advocated by Prof. Kork and his confiding and deluded proselytes. I? the South Americans could be nd need to stop shooting each other for a short time and employ the same mount of energy in building up their country that they exercise in trying to tear it down, they could soon be both happier and richer and Oregoti conld have a fine market for the mill ions of fir and cedar lumber which our mills could produce if there could be found a place to dispose of it. What the people would like loknow is not how much silver there is goinj; to be in the silver dollar of the future ; not how much they are going to b worth, but how many of them is going to be left in the treasury after the sal aries of the present senators iu con gress are paid. The Editor's Dream. I would from the city's rule and law from its fa?hions and forms cut loojc, and go where the strawberry grows on its straw ana me g-wsenerry grows on its goose; where the i-atnio tree is (linibH hv ihe rat as she clutches for her prey, the guileless and suspecting rat on the rattan bush at play. 1 will watch with ease the sanhron cow and the cowlet in their glee, as thev leap in joy from bough to bough on too of ruins in the wood and the dm devours the dogwood plum in theorimitivesolitude Oh let me drink from the mo-s-grown pump luhi u..s mu iroin s niimr.Kto tree eat tish and drink from a rural iiiinm nH from the fashion free new gathered mush from the iiiu.-i;rixru vine and mi k from the milkweed sweet with luscious pineap ples trora ttie vine such food as tho god-; might eat! And then to the whitewashed lairy I'll turn, where thedairvmaid hasten. ng hies, her ruddy and gold-red butter to churn from the milk of her butterflies. And I'll rise at morn with the earliest bird to the fragrant farmyard pass, and watch while the farmer turns his herd of grass hoppers out to grass. Morphine Effects. Morphine is curing manv thing?, and its fatal hold is growing on those who would despise it? more apparent use. Iiruggisio report that they have customers for diar. rhoea medicine who use it regularly, not knowing, perhaps, that they are miserable without it because of tiie effects of the morphine itcontains. Neuralgia and tooth ache medicine is being furnished in the aine way, and the habitual user imagines himself in pain when it is only the mor phine craving. The best way is to ask the druggist whether the medkdne he is about to soil you contains morphine, and if he is honest and values our re-pect, he will likel v give you sijmotiiinge!e. The bowels can be rogui ited without morphia and with less permanent effect upon them ; and the dentist is the proper person to take the toothache to. SOB'. SCOTT. On, Haturday, October 7, 1M, at Bt.
