OllEGON MIST. BUB80IUPTION, 1.60 TER YKAU. BEEQI.E DAVIS, Publishers. ST. HRI.EKISI, ORt:UON, OCT. I. Taib your home paper. Do not im agine the big dailies fill up all the space. There are many little ere vice ol good cheer, social sunshine and per sonal mention in a home paper that the dailies do not care for, do not print. Bubinkbo men should bear n mind that the right advertisement at the right time, in the right place will al ways produce the right results. The right time is now, the right place is in The Mist, and the right results are ure to follow. Thbri is every indication that Mr. Reed will go into the convention with the solid support of the New Englaud states. Outside of New England, how ever, he has considerable following, and it would not be surprising if the vote of Now York was cast for him when the time comes to cease trifling With the name of Mr. Morton. A rotabli illustration has recently been given of the tendency to think that what we have at home is not eo good as something of the eame kind that we can get from a distance. The now State House in Rhode Island is being built of Georgia marble, while it "is not, however, food enough for simi lar use in Georgia, as the new state house there is to be built of stone from Indiana. A LsarriMATK newspaper is a busi ness of value to tbe community in which it is published, and as such is the plessure and pride of its patrons; but when a newspaper pretends to do the work of upbuilding, to which word it is a disgrace, and in its effort to be little legitimate competitors, deals in trifling and little personalities, then it is a disgrace to the profession to which it claims membership. The chestnut regarding the build ing of tbe Astoria railroad is gradually fading away. There seems no longer a shadow of doubt that the road will be built There is today a large force of men at work in tbe vicinity of Tongue Point with teams, plows and scrapers, also a force of men are at work at tbe tunnel at tnat place, we have been informed on good authority that tbe contract provides that the grade ahall be completed by April 1, next, on tbe first ten miles leaving As toria. This looks encouraging ; more so, indeed, than ever since work of con struction has actually began. These is no question bat that tbe newspapers of any town or city may be the most effective' possible sgency in itarialnnment and nroaneritv. The effort or influence of either individuals or organizations are at best but spas modic and transient, bat tbe newspa- n snrVi nn atnariilv and incessantly. The individual agitator reaches only a comparatively limited field of oppor tunityonly those to whom particular effort may be extended hut the news paper reaches out in every direction and carries its influence to boats of unknown and unsuspected watchers ot opportunities. The Durrant case drags wearily along in Ban Francisco and promises In Ant?n,,A fnr anmA timn vet. It has almost worn tbe attorneys in the case oat, to asy nothing about tne court and jury. Mr. Deuprey, principal counsel for Durrant. was forced to take his bed and summons the doctor, and in consequence thereof a recess in tbe proceedings has been taken for a tew days. Tbe attorney is not tbe only person affected by tbe case, indeed the wbole country is sick of the affair, and Tlnvrant wVin has mrit.hftt.rmd th ordeal lor so long without showing tbe least symptom ot weakening, is now saia to ho srettinir nnrvnna. and no Wonder. There is not one roan in ten thous and but would have been a raving maniac long ago under the circum stances. The silence which prevailed in the court room Tuesday morning while Judge McBride was delivering his charge to tbe grand jury was evidence that taxpayers generally were inter ested in what was being said along the line of economy. Tbe court made no mistake in recommending to tbe jury that they consider well all matters pre sented to them in connection with al leged crime, and be certain, beyond a reasonable doubt, that tbe evidence in all cases is sufficient to convict before returning into court a true bill. "You mast not," says tbe court, "allow per sonal grivances of a frivolous charac ter between neighbors to enter into the case and take up tbe time of the cir cuit court as well as the grand jury. In cases where there is doubt as to the sufficiency of evidence I would recom mend that you refer to tbe justice of tbe peaee for investigation, and per haps thereby save great expense to the county." The court's instructions were along tbe line of economy, at the same time the necessity of enforcing tbe law in all cases was unmistakably set forth. It too often happens that great expense is incurred in the at tempt to ferret out a crime in which there is not sufficient evidence to con vict, and in such eases a true bill by the grand jury only creates an addi tional expense in the circuit court with no chance of conviction. Oregon has just entered the eastern markets as a producer ot prunes, of which California was supposed to have a monopoly. Several carloads of ex cellent Italian prunes have been sent to New York from Oregon, this year, and the dealer who Rave this informa tion is quits enthusiastic over their quality. Prunes are perhaps the most popular of the products of California orchards, and their growers have felt safe from competition outside that of their own state. That Oregon should now appear as a producer of the fruit which finds favor here will doubtless cause them some surprise. The price at which Oregon fruit was sold here averaged about $1 per crate, which left the grower about 50 cents out of which to pay for packing, boxes, labor and cultivation, etc. The fact that Oregon is producing merchantable prunes is a striking illustration of the manner in which the Pacific coast seems to set at defiance the laws of climatology. Here 1m a fruit, which is supposed to grow to perfection only in the middle and southern parts of Cali fornia, coming to a full maturity in a region 000 to 700 miles further north. When Southern California began to raise oranges the claim was made that only there could they be growu suc cessfully. Yet it has been demon strated that lust as gooa citrus iruits can be raised as far north as Oroville, 600 miles uearer the North Pole than Riverside. OT UUSS OF SARD TIMSS. The New Jersey democrats declare in their platform that "the industrial depression with which we have been afflicted during the past three years is chargeable to legislation enaoted by the republican party." A similar as sertion has been made in other demo cratic platforms, and is frequently seen in democratic newspapers. It is a gross misrepresentation, as every in telligent citisen knows; but, granting it to be true, the democrats still re main responsible for the hard times. They were in power throughout the whole period of depression, with ample opportunity to protect all interests aud to promote the general welfare and prosperity. When they discov ered the alleged injurious effects of existing republican legislation, why did they not repeal it, and give the conntrv something better in the place of it? They were not obliged to sit still and let bad laws bring misfortune upon all classes of people. It was their right and they possessed the means to wipe out every statute that they be lieved to be detrimental or in any sense obiectiooable. Congress was in session most of the time, and its authority extended to every source of mischief. But nothing was done. The republican legislation to which the panic is now being attributed was ai' lowed to stand, and the prevailing die tress was prolonged. As a matter of fact, however, the country was never more prosperous than at tbe time the democratic party was restored to power. Republican legislation had put every form of bus iness and industry upon a profitable basis, and had preserved tbe public credit, maintained the gold reserve, and kept a surplus in tbe treasury, it was the apprehension of the reversal of these conditions by the substitution of democratic for republican legislation that paralysed trade, reduced employ ment, and introduced general contus ion and uncertainty where theie bad been general stability and happiness. Tbe trouble began as soon as republi can influences ceased to control the policy of the government, and grad ually grew worse as the fear increased that tbe democrats would carry out their threats sgainst the doctrines and processes under which tbe country bad gained unprecedented prosperity. This fear was not allayed until a re publican house was elected last fall, and a guarantee thus secured that noH law could be passed without tne con sent of an anti-democratic majority in one branch of congress. The situation began to get better as soon as the plans of the democrats were blocked, and a start was made in tbe matter of rectifying the monstrous mistake of 1892. Business bus revived and good times are returning, not because of anything that tbe democratic party has done, but by reason of the safe guard that has been erected against its theories and purposes. 8 en l TO a Sew art, of Nevada, is one of the hardest workers in the United States Senate, both in bis beloved cause of silvsr and in earning shekels for himself, whether of silver or. gold. All through the hot summer be re mained in Washington looking alter the interests of the Electric Traction Company, of which be is president, and his big real estate deals. He re mains at bis office all day, taking his lunch at a dairy lunchroom, nod spends his evenings at Stewart castle, preparing editorials tot tbe Silver Knights of America, of which he is editor. A week after bis accident on the Cbevy Chase electric railroad be hobbled to his office on a crutch, but bas now so far recovered as to get alonir with a cane. The white-haired old gentleman is also very fond of fast horses and drives out in the suburbs every pleasant evening in a light rac ing buggy, drawn by a spirited trotter, and looking very natty in spite of his age. The Nevada senator also occas- ionly takes a band in a lawsuit, and never objects to accepting gold for his fee, which is usually a good one. What has become of the creamery proposition? We have heard nothing of it for several days. It is a matter, however, that takes time to get into shape, and requires no small amount or labor to put on root. The power is here already and about all that is re quired is men interested who have the determination to go ahead with the enterprise. The Gbakd Lodge. The grand lodge Knights of Pbythias of Oregon was held in Salem last week and the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: J. A. Waddle, supreme representative, Portland ; E. P. Geary, (i. V., Medford ; Turner Uliver, U. V. 0.. La Grande; G. F. McConaell, G. K. R. a, Portland; E. M. Sargent, G. M. E Portland ; Otis Patterson, G. P., Heppner; R. H. Greer, G. M. A., Hillsboro; Harry Behoof, G. 1. G., Portland ; Charles Fellows, G. O. G., Portland. The next session of the grand lodge will be held at Baker City. After tbe passage in Georgia of the severe laws against gambling, Judge Dooly was very rigid in their enforce ment. At the close of a session of the superior court, the judge bad retired to rest ; but tbe noise of a faro table in the adjoining room disturbed him so much that he got up, dressed, and went in and told them he had tried all legal methods to break them up and had tailed, and he was determined to adopt another plan. Before the sijbt had closed he broke the bank,; and told the parlies to clear out, and be more careful in the future how they interfered with the, court.

Indians rredlot m Severe Winter Shipment of Fruit from the I'aelflo Coast. As near as can be ascertained, it is believed that there are now 17,000 men engaged in mining in the three states of Oregon, Califoruia and Washington, The largest sites of Oregon dried prunes are selling In the Eastern mar kets for 7 to 8 cents per pound. This price should give our growers on tne average 6 cents a pound. There is every reason to believe that the farmers can now raise large quan tities of oats, for there's nothing to feed them to except bicycles, and bi cycles are not overly fond of oats. The state board of school commis sioners have begun a suit against the Albany college fnr the foreclosure of a mortgage for $5,533. The suit will not interfere with tbe running of school. An old Indian sage of the Okanogan country predicts a long cold winter, because the Great Spirit is angry with men tor stealing bis Iigbtuing and slaughtering and eating the cuitans be gave them. The proper time for a glrV to marry is after she has counted up her cash and found that she can support her self in case her husband turns politi cian or goes into the newspaper bus iness. The Warm Spring S (washes, says the Prineville Review, are making it tropical for the United Slates signal service this fall. We hear a number of them predicting upon the weather. moat of them claiming that there will be hiyu snow, hiyu cold, hiyu mima Inse cuitan. Tbe Smiths are not in it, A marriage recently took place wherein Chas. W Brown and Miss Ida Brown were mar ried at the residence of the bride's father, J. Brown, at Brownsville, by the Rev. Geo. Brown. The best man was Fred Brown, and the bridesmaids were Lottie Brown and Edith Brown. A writer in a magitine says that tbe earth would be heated more than a hundred and ninety thousand degrees by being suddenly stopped; that it would become more than sixty times as hot as melted iron. Any man, who knowing these facts, attempts to stop the earth, ought to be severely dealt with. A woman's character bas been by someone likened to a postage stamp- one black mark ruins it. Man s like a treasury note no matter "how many stains, it shall pass at par. When woman fulls from grace her character is ruined forever. When, on tbe other band, a man may straighten up and be received into the best society again All of which is too true; but being true don t make it right. Figures prepared by various rail roads show that shipments of green and dried fruits from Oregon, Wash ington and Idaho for this season have been 601 carloads to date. It is esti mated that by tbe end of the season the shipments will reach 1000 carloads. The shipments this year are more than double those of any other year. Two- thirds of this amount was shipped from Oregon. Senator Palmer tells a story about an Illinois farmer, who, for several years had been selling him wood for $6 a cord. "This year," says Senator Palmer, "he came to me with a load and I told him I did not want It. He oflered it at $2 a cord. -1 still refused, and be wanted to know why I would not take it at $2 a cord. I told him I was burning soft coal, for which I paid $1.37 a ton. 'I beard yon was trying to demonotize silvsr, and now you are trying to defuelize wood,' replied the irate farmer. Young men, don't swear. There is no occasion for it outside of a printing office, where it is useful when tbe pa per is behind time. It also comes in handy in the proof reading, and is in dispensable when the ink works badly and the press begins to buck. It has been known to entirely remove that tired feeling of a newspaper man when he looks over his paper after it is printed. Outside of a printing office it is a foolish habit. An old lady of 112 years, named Bos- towsks, presented herself recently at the perfecture at Lille to draw her pension. She served as a canteen wo man in Napoleon's campaign in Rus sia, was under fire in twelve other cam paigns, was three times wounded, and wears the silver cross for valor in the field. She acted as surgeon in a Pol ish regiment in 1831. She brought np a family of fifteen children, her last surviving son dying some years ago at eighty years of age. Here's to the kicker, tbe t reach erons kicker, the kicker who never is true: who always is crying and never is try ing some good for his town to do. No use to correct him, nor need you ex pect him to go to the front like a man ; while others hustle he'll ait down and rustle objections to every plan. But when the brute dies we'll pause with dry eyes on bis future condition to dwell, and well envy the devil that handles the shovel when be roasts tbe rank kicker in well. An exchange has discovered that the reason kissing is so pleasant, as told by an osculatory expert of scien tific tendencies, is because the teeth, Jawbones and lips are full of nerves, and when the lips meet an electric current is generated. And another says: Yes and it is so confounded cheap. You don't have to have a dy namo machine nor a battery in the house, nor a call box, nor a button to touch to ring up the central office. And there is no patent on it, and the poorest person in the world can enjoy it more than the millionaire, and it never gets out of order. If Ediaon had invented kissing it would oost $100 a year, like the telephone, and if you didn't pay it they would take out your kissaphone -and disconnect you from the central office.
