OREGON, J AH. 8. BIS POSITION PLAINLY STATED, Correspondents of the Oregonian demanded that at the banquet to Mr. Hirsch. chairman of the republican state central committee, Senator Mitchell state plainly his views on the silver question, and whether or not be would vote against mookeyiug with the silver question unlets in the nature (if international bimetallism. The banquet came off and there Senator Mitchell used the following language, presumably in answer to their re quests, Aud in responding to the toast 'The Preeident-EIeol f "It was these things, in connection . with his record as a private soldier and officer in the war of the rebellion, nd his wU known views upon the financial question, and every other pubho question involved in the recent campaign, aided by his modest And dignified personal bearing during the campaign, and the Admirable charac ter of his campaign speeches, and by the Aid ' not only of republicans throughout the country, but of those ot former political affiliations, the friends of law and order, of financial honor, And ot the maintenance of the integrity of the supreme court, that he was triumphantly elected president of these United States. It was through these influences and these instrument alities that be secured not only a large majority, but the largest ever caat for .'for any president of the United 818108." GST DOWN TO BUSINESS. The nineteenth biennial session of the Oregon legislature commences next Monday, and promisee to be one of more than usual interest. Factional as well as sectional difference will be prominent from the outset. The sen' atonal contest will be first and fore most In the pnblic mind. And mayhap a deadlock will again be witnessed, though for the benefit of tbe state and the success cf the republican parly in the future sucb a thing should not be permitted to occurr. A repetition of the scenes and effects of the last ses sion will prore disastrous to the state's every interest, and to tbe republican party as well. Legislation, not bick ering, should be the motto of every member. Tbe second matter of importance, will, no doubt, be the PorlUnd char ter. carryiDg with it provision for board of public works, which, if pre sented in the form of the last bill for tbat purpose, will ' benefit Portland alone at tbe expense of the river coun ties from Umatilla to the sea. The said bill, which failed to pass, provided for nine members, five of whom should be from Multnomah county, giving tbat county a majority of tbe board, with power to designate the amount of money that should be raised in the different counties along the river, and also where the money should be spent in improving the river. The bill, if it bad become a law, would have been a good thiog for Mnltnomah county, but would have been a great burden to the other river counties which would bare been powerless to belp them selves, having only a minority vote. There is no doubt, this same meas ure will be presented at the coming session and all possible pressure will be brought to bear to secure its pas sage. The Portland delegation in tbe legislature would, no doubt, be willing to sacrifice every other interest to es tablieb. this board in connection with the new city charier, which has been carefully prepared. Tbe question of assessment and tax ation will again demand the attention of the legislature, as will also tbe ques tion of judicial districts, and official salaries. Many other matters of grave importance will be on tbe calendar. and from different sections of the slate, so that beyond question the ses sion will be a game of barter, unfcsa the utmost oare is taken to secure ha? roony from tbe beginning. Tbe sena tor should be elected on the first bul lot so tbat the important legislative matters so essential to the state may receive early attention. Th Portland Chronicle, in its last isaut, makes some very bold insinua tions perlainiag to Judge McBride and Senator McBride, and suggests that since Thb Miht is published at the bonis of the juuior senator from Oregon, it give tome explanation of how the money for the late campaign was expended and wuo received iU Iu answer to the query Th Mist witriica to add that it has no authority and does not Attempt to speak for Judge McBride or Senator McBride. The offloial acta of those gentlemen apeak fur Oieniselves. But while the Chronicle attempts toexpUiu away iia own boodle methods why dwi it not explain the exact reason i why it is op posing Senator Mitchell, and stale whether or not it demanded of the sen ator 12000 for its support of him for re election, and whether or not the senator's refusal was not th cause of the Chronicle's opposition to him T One would be led to believe from subse quent events that "Mr. Corbett did have" the 12000, and that the East Portland editor's desires were gratified TBS BAUB0AB COMMISSION. "The repeal of the law creating the railroad commission should be the first work of the legislature At the coming session. Iu ils stead a raaxi mum rate bill should be passed, or the law proposed by Hon. H. V. Galea, of Ilillsboro, two years ago. Mr. Gates' bill proposed that tbe commission con sist of three members to be elected by the people, their salaries and expense of maintaining said commission to be derived from a tax on the railroad prop erty within the state. This bill passed the house two years ago but could never ba gotton out of the con.mittee in the senate because Joe Simon, tbe patron and friend of corporate in flnence, would not permit it to be brought out, for it would have passed the senate aa easily as it did the house." Heppner Gasette, To tbe above the Hillsboro Inde pendent addst "This shows the drift of publio sen timent in some directions. There ought to be some changes in legisla tion touching transportation prob lems, but the legislature mast move with caution. If a flat repeal of the present law is made there stands noth ing between the railroads and tbe peo ple. The Gates bill had merit and seems to be fair to both interests. It was cheerfully accepted by a part of the railroads, antagonised by others. The transportation companies will have to exercise a wise discretion, or they will have to work under a maxi mum freight law. They remember how it was six years ago when the present law was enacted." Thus it will be seen tbat the railroad commission is not overlooked in the great scramble preceding the assembly ing of the nineteenth biennial session, Publio sentiment generally seems to be in favor of maintaining a railroad commission but not as provided for under the present law. The people of the state should select the commission at the general election instead of leav ing it with tbe legislature to appoint. Tbe Gates bill of two years ago was reasonable in its provisions and, no doubt, had it become a law, would have given satisfaction. A railroad commission can be of great benefit to the state, but tbe law might be ren dered more effective by being changed in some particulars. TBS CUBAN IB0CBA. Tbe war reports from Cuba have a great deal to say about the trocha, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. It is a new term in military science, and there is more or less confusion in tbe public mind as to what it means. In a gen eral way, it signifies a strategic line across a given scope of territory, sepa rating one army from Another. The line in tbe present instance extends from Havana to the sonthern coast of the island, and its original purpose was to divide the insurgent forces, part of which were in the western por tion of the island under Maceo, And the rest in tbe eastern portion under Gomes and Garcia. It consists prin cipally of a barbed-wire fence three feet six inches high, with sentinel de tachments immediately behind it. About forty yards back of it is a trench three feet wide and fonr feet deep, with a breastwork of palmetto logs; and fifty yards further back are log houses in which the troops are quar tered. The number of 'soldiers re quired to guard the wbole line is about 15,000. Its construction cost much labor on lbs part of the Spanish troops in tbe heat of a torrid sun and under other trying conditions, and hundreds oi tnem died before it was finished. It was General Weylei's idea of comprehensive' and effective strategy, and he is said to be very proud of it. It may be that the trocha has served the Spanish a good purpose, but the general judgment of military critics is that it ha not been worth as much as it cost. Tbe insurgents have frequently crossed it, and it has not prevented them, apparently, from carrying on their operations according to their own plaos. As a matter of fact, they have displayed more military skill and done better fighting at all times than their adversaries. They have been at a great disadvantage in tbe matter of arms, but that has not prevented them from defeating tbe Spaniards in every engagement on anything like even terms as to numbers and posi tion. Their old-fashioned musket. shotguns and machete have been nsed 1807 SEED CATALOG FULLY ILLUSTRATED Free on Application, Send for it. Buell Lamberson 180 and iSa Front Street, Corner Yamhill, Portland, Oregon with far more enVot than tbe first-class weapons on tbe other side. It is im possible not to admire their couragp, their persistence and their fortitude under the most difficult circumstances. Their commanders are not educated soldiers, but somehow they have man aged to get and to keep the better ot the distinguished experts whom Spain has sent to put them down by scien tific methods. Where so much has been accomplished in spite of so many drawback, it is idle lo talk about any other result than the one upon which the insurgents have set their hearts. The independence of Cuba may be de layed in one way or another, but it is sure to come, and the day is not very distant. Ths legislature should uot waste any time wrangling over who should be senator, but get down to business as oon as possible, and repeal some of the undesirable laws and enact others that would be of benefit to the state. Tbe work of the session might be done in much less than the statutory iO days if the members go there with their minds made up to transact busi ness for the publio instead of for per sonal gsin. "BABYHOOD."" 8t. Hslbss, Dec. 35. Ml Editob: With th first advent of baby in Ibis unfriendly world, comes an important era for the parents. They should be in close touch with nature, with tbe ex actness of its laws, and hare been hying la harmony with them. None but parrot know the extreme limits of Joy in bearing the baby's voice for th first time, and none know ths bitter anguish of parting for aver except those who have lost one. Baby always comes prepared with nourishment for at least 21 hours. Nature has ordaiotd it; her laws are perfect, and nnless broken baby will live from childhood to childhood without aches, pains or disease. What is gensrally the result? When baby cries it is gives nourishment regardless of the time since it had taken nourishment. Result baby has dyspepsia before it has teeth. For ths first three months, at least, two and a half hours should elaps between baby's meals; from three to six months, three hoars should elapse; from six to twelve months old, four hours should lapse; after which three meals per day will suffice. Nothing else, whatever, should ba eaten between meals excepting rip fruit ths rest of their natural lives. Baby should early be taught to take a swallow of pure water a bait bear before partaking of nourishment. Next in importance is fresh, pure air. Ther should be a free cir culation of air from the outside night and day through the room. Nature, through her' peculiar purifying pros esses, intends that baby should come into the world in a healthy eonditlao. and healtby people. with ordinary precaution, never take cold Baby should invariably sleep alone. A baby of delicate bnild should be kept out of doors just as much as possible. After baby is three months old the sleeping room should be ventilated by raising a window four inches at ths bottom sad lowering the window the same distance from the top, and in no case should there be any artl flcial heat In ths room during sleeping hours, from childhood to the grave. Next in impoitanc is what to fed baby. Unless the mother is healtby and of an even tarn perament, and in close touch with nature and laws, it is infinitely better to raise the baby on cow's milk. Particularly a young healthy cow should be selected, fed with clean nutritions food, bran and shorts pre ferred, and be given good, pure water to drink, and plenty of pure, fresh air. If cow's milk does not agTee with it, try the artificial baby foods until you find some thing that does sjcree with it. If these few simple directions are followed there will be no need of walking the floor of nights, dos ing with soothing syrop, sending for tbe doctor, or In tbe end, ths undertaker. . Btcdsht.

Th festal days have come and gone, and many a weary heart still throbs, mors than ever conscious of ths lonesomeness of life, and many tired feet plod on, feeling more keenly th heaviness of the shackles of their master, "Poverty,'' but remembering as tbey catch the sunshine as it gleams askance, the bars floor and unadorned walls, that theirs is tbe privilegs aa well as the Joy, to enter with ths throng "tbe gates of pearl" and walk triumphantly ths "gold paved streets' of the "Fair Celestial City just ahead."

We know that it iseonsldsrsd unaccount ably mean to steal th reading from an other man's paper, but ths weightinsss ot the Columbia County News so tempted us that w could not but ludiilg In such meanness, and w war reminded of "Lit tle Jack Horner's" Christmas pie, so fml of plums that as he exhibited them to th gas ot ths onlooker h exclaimed "What a Brave Boy Am I." Surely such a collec tion of items was lutleed a great fete. If we have nothing to say of course w oan'tssy it; but it we were Ihe privileged newspaper correspondent, like th associ ated press reporter, who could make on letter answer for Portland, Maine, to Port land, Oregon, that took for his text, "And Peter's wife's mother lay sick of a fever," but was followed in his rounds by an atten tive listener, who, after six or seven timee hearing the aam anoonaccment, ex claimed, "Qood graolona, aint th old lady dead yet." W feel somewhat so, aud wonder when some oi the Itemising Is go ing to expire. W remember that some one wrote "This world is all a fleeting show for man 'a illusion given," and it must be that so much seeming senseless Itemising is tor man's and occasionally woman's il lusion, given, We might be pardoned after our tirade on itemising. It we should add several. which should be of Interest to lb dwellers in Columbia county, such as Mr, Brie Hacker and son William, after a sojoura of a littles over a year near Wheatland, are pleased to return to Nehalem and are con tent to Uv and die within our county. Mr. Able Reed Is much improved In health, though by no mesua, entirely well. As the old pensiouer never drank from tbe fountain of eternal youth, the more than three score years snd ten have silvered th hair and bowed the form of the good old cithssn. The gold prospectors are still hopeful, promislug golden chariots to tbe little folks In ths not distant future. W fear It Is only the dcltfulnes of "Alladm's mag ic ring." COLUMBIA CITT.
