How s.lm'r' Uiose MeKinloy prices ,of Alew lrp ago compared with the ,Wilgm prices of today. Which were tint better timet? .," If the told is U truing- out of the country why Dot enact v high Uriff Jaw and make all duties payable in Told". That would brine some ol it back again. JjKT our com moo school system be (bettered. The money that goes to ed ucate Ue in asses is well spent, indeed. .The man who is a Zoo to the comjnon suUool is a traitor to his country! Lord Dunbacbn says his yacht, Val kyrie III, shall never again cross the Kceau. There are any number of peo ple m America who will not lose any sloen over this astonishing bit of news. Lords, Earls and Princes of the Dun- racen caliber are not in Urge ueiuaua over hero anyway. In the Dast wheat has been king in Oregon, but it is apparent that hops and 'ruit are becoming an important factor With our farmers. If we take this year, says the Portland Dispatch, - . . t. t : 1 1 11 la a question which trup win change the most money, wheat or Irujt. In Southern Oregon it is be coming almost the exclusive crop, "while lance orchards may be fount! throughout the valley and Eastern Or egon. We are no longer a single crop late, but have .hops, wheat, oats, bar ley, fruit of every ind and variety, sheep, cattle and salmon. , The fruit industry baa developed very rapidly (taring the past three years, and car loads are being sent ' to Eastern mar kets, while our dried and canned traits will soon fled their way to every civi lised nation on earth. While it looks as though the industry might be over done, it is evident that the present year's increased crop is in ss active do mand as the lesser crops heretofore, and at better prices. The fruit indus try is bound to become one of Oregon's principal resources in the future. Today we hear almost nothing abort strikes, unless it be to raise wages to a boint where operative believe tbey 6nght to be advanced, and everywhere bexe is an increased hum of machin ery, and in every industry there is an effort to supply the market frith fresn .roods. It is a welcome change to those, who in many cases, exhausted all they had laid by in holding on until he times changed. The wage-earner does not live in a bed of roses. In the tost of times it is necessary to live -with prudence, and the man who does not Jay .by when be has plenty of work is not doing justice to himself. The trouble with people in bad limes is chiefly with those, who, like the prod leal son, have spent their earnings so freely that they have nothing to fall back upon. If all our wage-earners will take the advantage of the return 6f good times and high wages to re ... place what theyhave lost, and increase their reserves, they will soon be out Of trouble, and find that the p.ition of wage-earner is not so desperate as it h been said to be. . " Th egotistical man is a prince ol borer, and ia a person to be shunned. Conceit is taking ourselves at an esti mate which is about seventy per cent above a fair and equitable value. There are puffed up individuals who worship themselves, and who do not care who lenows it.' "John Smith" is an egotist of this type. He' bought himself a book not long since, and wrote on the fly leaf : "Presented to 'John 8mith' by himself as a'thark of esteem." Peo ple who insist most vehemently on their ability to paddle Jtheir own canoe usually have to botrow the canoe. The editor who had so mncb to say about Uie circulation of bis paper, usually ' has the least' reason to boast "of the means by which that circulation was obtained! Empty minds are the most prone to soar above their proper sphere, like ape? kites are kept afloat by their own lightness, while those who are better stored are like heavily-laden vessels, "which we see the less of, the more richly and deeply they are freighted. The corn bends itself down ward when its ears are filled, but when the heads of the' conceited are filled iU adulation they only float higher. The law in this stole providing that the county court shall fix the tax levy at the September term should be so Changed that it would not be neces sary to fix the levy nntfl after ' the state board of 'equalization has cotn- eeted ii work. It will be remem red that the present law requiring ihe county court to make the levy in September was in existence long be fore the act creating the state board of iqualizatioh'was patted, the hitter . law fixing the time for the state board to meet - in December. " The state boardjs action in fixing values on prop erty is final, and if may raise or lower Jhe valuation in any county on any article assessed. Consequently the county court cannot know what valua tion they have from which to' raise ;reenue until the final action of the slate board. For instance the 'county court might make an estimate of the 'amount oi money necessary for county expenses and fix the Jflvy 6n the as 'sessed valuation sufficiwutly high to raise the amount, but should the state board, which meets several months later, reduce the assessed valuation there would necessarily be a shortage Srf the funds for current expenses. Therefore it seems that the- proper remedy' would be to have the 'stale board complete its work first, and if values' were either lowered Or raised the court woujk know jut how much property they have from which to raise revenue, and could ' fix the rale accordingly.- ' .' ' It is indeed disgusting to hear peo nlesav the United States cannot pass 'certain laws utiles England agrees to St, yet mis very assertion is ueaiu fevery day." Then the question at once 'prises, Mot is not this once independ ent America retrograding n 1776 'the colonies did not ask England ad- vhie; in 1812 her advice was not S ' . . .. -... i. Wed, yet this country prospored ; two weeks ago the owner ol Defender did I not ask permission of her majesty to allow Defender to win the race. Still must have "international agree ment." Well, we have international agreement with Europe on the tariff question. England in particular was anxious to agree on that point, as sue is on every other question wthen she can profit on Ame.ica's loss.' Put is it not about time American patriotism should cry out" in unmistakable tones "let us legislate in the interest of America lor a while!" The good book leBs ns that "he that prOvMelh potior his own household is worse than the infidel." And so it is with us, if America doss not protect her own interests they will not be protected. Patriotic blood should revolt at such mockery. TBS XSPOBLiciN ASPIRANTS. ' Three republicans McKiuley, Alli son and Morion nave oaen piacea by their stales upon the presidential track. These three will be presented in the convention, and two of them, at least McKiuley and Allison aie considered by their States and by a large element of the party' in the rest of the couutry to be really ana eny phaticallyin the race for the canai dacv. Maine and Indiana will not have anv chance this year to niaxe a formal declaration of preference, but each, of course, will support the claims of it own favorite son in tne couven tion, and each will be backed by some of the other states. Maine, at all events will have this backing, and Indiana probably wUl. None of the others- Sherman. Aleer. Edmunds aud Lin' coin heretofore voted for in national conventions, are likely to figure with any prominence in the balloting. Thus, five men will amue me err tire strength of the cuavenliou on the first ballot, which circumstance affords a certainty that (he nomination will not be made on that ballot, and which furnishes a reasonable preauinptioa that it will not be on the second or third either. This is as large a field of racers as have ever appeared on the presidential track in a repubhean na tional convention. - Only two men, Fremont and John McLean, of Ohio, were in the race for the candidacy In 1836, and before die convention met it was easy to see that McLean's hopes were vain. Seward. Lincoln. Cameron Chase and Batts had powerful and confident supporters in the convention of 1860. One man is all who is men tioned in the next three conventions Lincoln in 1864 snd Grant in 1868 and 1872. Five men appeared to be in the race in 1S76 Blaine, Morton, Bristow. Conkliuir and Hayes and in 1888 Sherman. Gresham, Alger, Har rison and Allison; three in 1880 Grant, Blaiue and Sherman and two in 1884 and 1892 Blaine and Arthur in the former year aud Harrison and Blaine iu the latter. It is hard to tell how much or how little seriousness there is in the Mor ton affair. Piatt, it has often been said, and it is generally believed, will Use Morton to keep the New York vote solid, and after two or three ballots transfer it to the one among the prom iaintr asoirauta with whom he can make the best bargain in the shape of patronage. Morton's advanced age will handicap him in the race, yet in a deadlock between tbe stronger aspir ants he may nevertheless win the prize. Everybody still thinks Heed and Mc- Kinky are io the lead. Beed is toler ably sure to have the virtually solid vote of New En eland, but nobody can estimate with any sort of confidence bow far bis strength extends beyond that locality. McKiniey's extremist views nn the tariff ouebt to feet him most of Pennsylvania's delegation, but of course, Quay will largely dictate the course of that stale. Allison, it is thought, will have many supporters in the silver mining states, and some of Harrison's fricuds look for a good many votes for him from Southern delavates, although it ia not easy to see on what this hope is based. The contest is reasonably sure to last throuzh half a dozen ballots or more and the most careful estimates of the chances which are possible at this time are no better than guesses. CHECK PAXABLtE TO CCBTEB. Found In Chicago and Forwarded to the Widow. BisMiscK, N. D., Sep. 23. The tragic death of General Caster snd his gallant men at the hands of tbe Bloux Indians in the massacre of the Little Big Horn was recalled here tlils week by the forwarding to Mrs. Caster of s check for $1600, drswn to the order of General George A. Caster in 1876. The check is dated Jane 25, and to signed by B. L. Smith, at that tiros assist ant paymaster in the army. It was on June 25, 1876, that the massacre iook place, The check is still unpaid, snd soiled and tattered though it be, constitutes a valid claim against the government for the amount represented npon its face, wliicb was no doubt Intended as part payment of General Custer's sJary as an officer in the Dnited States army Where tbe check has been all these years no one knows, least of ail Michael Francis. who found it in the street here last Febru ary, and who has retained it in bis posses sion nntil now. When Francis picked np the bit of paper it was almost as legible as when it was drawn, bnt three heavy creases In it showed that it had been worn through The parts were joined together by strips of paper pasted on the back, 'and the edges somen bat soiled as tliongb tbe paper bad some time been dropped in the mud Ho indorsement' appears npon tb back of "the check:, and the face shows the mark of no cancellation stamp, demonstrating that tbe check has merer been presented for payment. The check was no doubt for warded to tbe Northwest before the news of the Caster massacre reached Washing ton. Had it reached those In charge of the dead soldier's effects it would hsre been sent back at once in order that one payabl to the heirs could have been sent on in its place. It has evidently been under shelter somewhere, and the chances are that it was lost recently and swept out into the street, where It was found by Mr. Francis. Elk Slayers Fined. Okzoom Citt, Sep. 25. A Wis Russell snd Charles knowles had their bearing in Jus tic Dixon's conrt today on tbe charge of -wootonfjr killing twelve elk near the bead waters of tbe Clackamas rivtr.

Til hi ASSESSMENT UOLL. Some Statistics lleitardlnff Columbia ' " County's Wealth. Below js given an Itemised report of the taxable property in Columbia county, with the exception of the value placed on unimproved land, tne value placed on this class of land by the assessor was tKX),954. but the county court, sitting ' as a board of equalisatiou, reduced the value placed on uuimproved land from $3 as fixed bv tbe assessor, to n ana pet acre, so mat It is now necessary tor the assessor to' make this correction on tne assessment roil on mat one item, which will require a little time, hence we are unable to priut at this time Ihe summary complete.

Tbe following is the report of tbe State Weather Bureau for the week ending Mon day, September 23, 1895: - " WKSTKHS OHCQON. Weather The week has been cool, cloudy and showery. The rain fail has been gen erally less than one quarter of an inch, but has been distributed over four days.' On the 20th a heavy thunder storm, sccom- paoled by hail, occurred in Donglaa and Columbia counties. - Since Friday tali weather has prevailed ; Friday and Saturday nighta were cool, with frosts each uiornir.g. The maximum temperature for the week ranged In m 58 to 70 degrees, and the mini- um from 86 to 54 degrees, temperatures about tboss of the week preceding. Tbs sna's rays were quits warm, but tbe total amount of sunshine was below the normal amount. The total rainfall for the month of September is in excess of ths normal amount, hut pbe total does not amoant to that wbich fell in September, 1893. Crops The fsosts were heavy enough in localities, to injure vegetation usually frosts do not occur nntil October. There was no material damage done by the frosts, for most all products have matured. The rain Was not beavy enougn to materially interfere with hop-picking, though the threateidng weather had a depressing effect upon ths pickers, and ss a result many yards hays been abandoned before tbe hops were thoroughly picked, ins conaiuon 01 ths hoDS is hard to determine. Some owners claim that the rains bave not in lured them, otlis s that tbey have done in jury. It ia safe to conclude that had ths weather been more favorable tnai more picking would have been dons and mors hops would have been baled. Harvest of all crops Is about over: tlie hop-picking will he finished this week prune-drying continues, snd nas been very successful. Corn yet remains to be gatn. sred. but as the amount f .corn in Oregon is small, the gathering of it cats but a small figure in the progress of harvest Tbe po tato crop ia now drying, and will soon be stored for winter shipment and use. Dar ing the seaaoa of growth, Jbe rainfall wa so small that it had an injurious effect upon the pot .1 to crop. The ground is sufficiently well moistened as to allow of plowing, which has been taken up by the farmers; owing to this be- ;og tbe period of fairs, etc., plowing Is gen- erafly delayed .until alter tne lairs are over. The seaa throughout has been fairly favorable to farming operations and to tbe devalonment of the farm products. Har vest ia practically over, and as thess hulli tins are for tbe period of planting to he vest, tbey will be discontinued with this issue for tbe current year. . The Bawsmore Inquiry. Sas FaAaciscp, Sept. 23. The British naval court, which was convened by Vice- Consnl Moore to investigate tbe wreck the B-.wntuore, off tbe coast of Oregon last month, has made its report. The findings comnletelv exonerate Captain Woodside from all Warns, sod his certificate is re turned. In conclusion the court says : "Upon tbe evidence given, tbe vessel ap pears to have been navigated in a seaman like and proper manner, and, in the opin ion of this court, tbe stranding of the ship is attributable to an excess of current setting in toward ths land, of whioh ths master could have bad no knowledge in the thick weather prevailing since leav ing Cape Flattery. Tbe error in tbe com pass also appears to bsve contributed to the loss of the vessel in causing her to be taken from her course np to tbe 27 tb of August, when ths error in tbe compass was discov ered and rectified. Considering these cir cumstances, ths conrt sees no ground blaming the conduct of the master, and re. turns bis certificate herewith. Tbs officers and crew appear to have conducted them selves properly and used their best endear: ors to savs the vessel." Water CommlssioB.Bestralned, Asroaia, Or., Sept. 23.
