H, Mitchell is in tear. The anti-expansion party of the United States is well, wkat and where a it, anyway T Seattle Times (pop.) Two years ago the republicans carried sixty-fire counties in Kansas. This year they carried eighty and the state goes republican on the county clerk vote by 15,000 too 18,000. Admjeal Dawn's salary amounts to $37.20 a day ; that of President McKin ley is equal to $132 a day ; cabinet offi cers, the Tic president and speaker of the bouse, get $23 a day; senators and congressmen, $13.90, snd the chief jus tice of the supreme court, $29 a day. la the minds of some people Dewey has undone a great deal of the glory he achieved for himself at that May Day party in Manila bay. However, the bouse is not ours, nor any part of it. We did not contribute a cent to the fund that purchased it, and, so far as we are concerned, he can do as he pleases with it. which, in all liklihood, he will do anyway. Bob is pronounced Boa-er and means fanner. Veldt is a farm. .TJitlander. or outlander, is a foreigner. 8 tad is city. Vaal is a valley. Burgher is citizen. Oom is pronounced oms, and means uncle. Baud is the edge. Trek is journey, to travel. Veldbeer is field marshal. Burgerwacht is the vol unteers. Volksraad is the lower huse of congress, and raadhula is the senate or upper bouse. These are good words to remember when you read of the Transvaal troubles. to be maintained in the Philippines, thus dispelling Agulnaldo'a delusion that the anti-lmperiallsta can assist him, will be performing a sacred duty. Such a resolution would save the lives of many American soldiers and of thous and) of deluded Filipinos, would avert famine, suffering and desolation from these Islands, and would render unnec essary the expenditure of hundreds of millions of dollars. Was congress directs the president to turn the government of the Philip pine islands over to the islanders or to some other authority, the president will do so. He cannot do so before without being recreant to bis oath of office. He has no ehoice in the matter. He sworn to uphold the laws and the sover eignty of the United States wherever the flag is planted, and until congress hall with withdraw that flag he has but one thing to do, and that is, support and defend it with all the power of the government. Tai democrats are still rejoicing over the result in Nebraska, but the Bt. Louis Globe-Democrat thinks the republicans have more reason to be jubilant over the returns from that state than the democrats. "The Nebraska demo-pop victory," it says, "will bring two things about which will be of immense benefit to the republicans. It will delude the democrats into nominating Bryan next year, and it will incite them to make a fight on expansion. Here are two con siderations which will make the task of the republicans in 1900 easy and pleas ant. If the democrats knew their busi ness they would put mourning rules around the election figures from Neb raska." Thi cut of lumber along the coast in 1899 will exceed any former year, says the Puget Sound Lumberman. This statement is made without any data but from a general survey of the situation While in California there has been but little increase in the capacity of the mills, there baa been some, and the mills bave all been busy. In Oregon a goodly number of mills that have been idle for years have been set to work, while several large mills have been erected. It should be said, however, that these mills have not been com pleted early enough in the season to add much to the year's output. In Wash ington it is within bounds to ssy the output is one-third greater in 1899 than it was in 1898. In round numbers it can be conservatively stated that this state will cut over one billion feet of lumber and consume in shingles, poles, piles, etc., enough to make the total amount of timber .consumed over one snd a half billion feet. In British Oe lumbia the lumber trade has been re stricted in export by need of ships. Again, the big mill at Vancouver has added but little to the sum total of the year's output. There has been, how ever, a great activity amongst the smaller mills that cut for local and car trade. Congress, if it occupies the first day of the session in passing a resolution declaring in unmistakable terms that tbe sovereignty of the United States is " 'NOT THE PROPER METHOD.' " "Under this caption the editor of the Newt,conimonly called Aguinaldo Mitch ell, just as well mention names," de votes three columns of "space," for "space" it was, on the first page of his paper last week to criticising what he terms "these Siamese twins," referring to Mr. N. A. Perry, of Houlton, and the editor of Ths Mist. This controversey grows out of the effort made to consoli date the school districts of Houlton and St. Helens, in which the editor of Tbs Mist objected to the public defamation of the character of citizens of the com munity by an unreliable, financially-disinterested old microbe, who floats around the country, flitting in here and there, remaining until his questionable tactics become a publio nuisance, and he is forced to seek pastures new. Had the early criticisms of that old sore never been made it is not at all unlikely that a friendly meeting of the people of both districts would have been held e'er this and some good, sound plan devised whereby action along the proposed lines could have been consummated. But the first thing necessary in the mind of this great "expansionist" was to heap abuse upon someone and open up a chasm which now will be difficult to bridge, having previously exposed his selfish, foolish spirit in the matter, reudering it a difficult task to secure signers to the petition by stating In his columns that should the idea of consolidation be car ried out "St. Helens would then have a good school." This piece ol foolishness was the greatest barrier to the success of the undertaking, bringing forth strong opposition, as a natural consequence and causing more bard explanation by those circulating the paper than any other thing. No one had an idea of having a school exclusively "for St. Hel ens" except the old bag of corruption who runs the postage stamp. But this great local supporter of rebel lion, Aguinaldo's cohort, cared not so much for the consolidation of the two districts as he did for an opportunity to open up his batteries of abuse on some one, he cared not whom, in order to gratify his dominant ambition to be everlastingly carping about something, Being so corrupt within himself he at tributes vile and dishonorable motives to the methods of everybody in tbe com munity. His rottenness, which extends from core to surface, is so vile that the least abrasion of his hide causes the of fensive article to effuse in endless quan tities. Having been a failure all his life in every undertaking, his jealousy of those, who by their industry and atten tion to business have brought them suc cess, so chafes him that his only means of consolation is to attempt to tear down the foundation upon which others have builded. The old vulture's latest effort will gain as little for him as have his former similar tactics, and add another epitaph to the tombstone of the greatest monumental ass in the history of this county. As the matter stands today a chasm has been opened up by the mean ness of the old fester of the News which will render it, more difficult than ever to accomplish anything along tbe lines of advancement. Tbe breech is wide, and in order to succeed the first thing necessary is to throttle the old carbuncle who permeates the whole atmosphere with his offensive puss. come distinguished by pardoning you. Therefore, the Jury did you great ben efit not to hang you. When you go down to the penitentiary behave your self, and some fool governor, who wishes to distinguish himself for philanthropy, benevolence and kindness may pardon vou." Tax only way by which capital can increase is by saving. This is the way the poor become affluent and tbe wealthy wealthier. If you spend as much as you get you will never be richer than you are. It is not what a man gets, but what he saves, that con stitutes his wealth. Go learn the first two rules of arithmetic; learn addition and subtraction. Add to your present capital any amount you please ; subtract the sum which you add, and the last amount will be the same as the first. Everyone should, in a year of his life, make some addition to his capital. You say you get but little. Never mind; spend less than little, and then next year you will bave more, for you will bave the profit which you save. There Is no royal road to wealth more certain than economy. The man who goes on spending all be gets, and expects by some lucky hit he shall be raised to wealth, will most likely sink into pov erty, for in case of adverse fortune he has then no resource; whereas by econ omy he may lay by a stock that may serve as a provision in case of adversity. You may say that times are bad. Be it so, but were the case reversed it would make no difference to you. Look at home; you spend more than you get; how, then, can you be otherwise than pooi? How many respectable families have fallen from high station, which they worthily and honorably filled, be cause neither toe Husband nor wite knew tbe first two rules of arithmetic. Had they known how to check their household accounts, and how to com pare their receipts with their expendi tures, and to see which preponderated, all their difficulties might bave been avoided. A very small acquaintance with the common rules of business would be sufficient to show that if a man spends more than he receives, be will necessarily fall into poverty. Tax sorehead editor of the little effus ion down the street, being too contempt ibly lasy to set the type tor the court proceedings but week, took advantage of our Industry by displaying the un limited gall to come up and borrow our hard-set typo. Yet he hadn't the com mon deceucy and regard for professional courtesy to state in his columns that it was by the industry of Ths Mist force that he could furnish his readers with the proceedings of the court. But then a cur you feed will always bite you. Thi unusually heavy rains of tbe past fortnight are accounted tor from the fact that local sympathizers of Ag uinaldo are weeping crocodile tears as a result of the complete breaking down of the insurrection in the Philippines. Old hatless, costless, sockless Aguinaldo, by his failure to hang on, has destroyed the last vestige of hope of his American allies. Passion has been torn to tatters and his sympathisers are wallowing in the "Slough of Despond." anil nnw tha S rmt flaw In Ilia nmaant hero of the nation is found when he ps?"1" iranaiera a gin woicn carries who u the gratitude of those who could find no other means of expressing their appre ciation, to his ton, who has rendered no public service and to whom the country owes nothing. And so Dewey, like other mortals, makes mistakes occasionally. The Dalles Chronicle. Tits tactics of Goebel down in Ken tucky to carry the state for Bryanisin quite in keeping with the methods that class of politicians. Success by foul means, if by no other, seems to be the slogan, just so they succeed. Tay lor was as surely fairly elected governor of Kentucky as it is certain that Brya was fairly defeated for the presidency. Lrrrn hope, indeed, remains for the popocratic contingent nowadays. Every thing they have advocated has proven failure, and the hum of industry goes merrily along, leaving them to the fate of misguided theory and principle.

Tbe latest surprise in political cir cles is mat "isiuie" uaaweu nas turnea republican and will be a candidate for sheriff in the republican county conven tion. Many republicans with a pull have speared him the nomination if he would renounce democracy. Billie is very pop ular, and since he has unloaded the democratic mill-stone from about bis neck, he will no donbt distance all com petitors. Kahuna Bulletin. The last Issue of the Tillamook Her ald contained this item: "Himpel Wheeler have submitted plans and apec- i neat tons to snip Dancers lor a tug ana barge which they will have built for nee in connection with their mill at Neha lem. They propose to put their mill in first class condition, and don't nroooae to depend on outside vessels for freight ing meir lumDer to market, iney ex pect to resume operations at tbe mill sometime in March." The Gazette learns from an unques tioned source that the survey now being made on thenortn bank ol tbe Columbia is in the interests of the O. R. 4 N.

Ths fame of Pennoyer has evidently reached Kansas City, Mo., says the Ore gonian. On the 18th Inst. Judge J. W. Wofford, of the criminal court at that place, sentenced a murderer to ninety nine years in tbe penitentiary. During bis remarks to tbe convict, he said: Yours is fen extraordinary case, and some governor may think he can be sts te Superintendent of Public In struction Ackertnan, has made a ruling that a district school board may emplov a teacher when there is no money in tbe treasury, and pay said incurred indebt edness trom the brst money received from the common school fund. We do not wish to question but what the ruling is correct, yet it is an extremely bad precedent for school directors to go be yond their income, for a time is sure to come when a curtailment is necessarv. when, in this event, the length of school terms have to be cut down. Tillamook Headlight. Dairying is proving Itself to be an in dustry ot pront in the Willamette valley, as tbe natural conditions of things here are so well adapted for the particular line of work. With the introduction of dairies to such a large extent, those controlling and managing them are taking up the improved methods of providing feed for the dairy cows. Uut at the college the agricultual students are taught, along this line, tbe value of ensilage and silo, In fact the entire winter feed forthedairy cows out there isof this kind. The large silos are filled with ensilage corn, it re quiring many tons each year, though it requires but a few acres of land to pro duce it. The estimated cost of raising and cutting the ensilage is about $1.00 per ton, and 15 acres of land will produce xou tons, or enough leed tor the largest ol our dairies in a single year. Corvallis uazette. Under the heading, "To Estimate Weight of Cattle." Brother Frank Hull. of the Milton Eagle, gives his readers the following information : "There are several methods of finding the live weight of cattle, but the following is nrobamv the most correct! 'Meaanrn the girth around the breast lust behind the shoulder-blade and tbe length of the beck from the tail to the fore part of tns snooiaer-Diade. Multiply the pro duct by eleven and the result will be the number ol pounds, ll between three and five feet, multiply by sixteen ; if between five and seven feet, multiply by 33; if between seven and nine feet, multiply by thirty-seven ; if between nine snd eleven feet, multiply bv forty.'" Our experience has been quite limited in the business of estimating the weight ot cattle, and consequently cannot endorse this as an absolutely correct rule for that work, but we print it and allow our readers to take it for what it is worth, as was undoubtedly the idea of Brother Hull. It might work to a charm. The house that Jack built isn't in it with tbe house that Dewey got, so far as publicity is concerned, and before tbe great hero bears the last of that house he'll wisb he bad have chosen the right course in tbe first place, and refused it. Strange that one who is said to have never made a mistake in tbe great un dertakings of his career should have made such an error in disposing of the gift of tbe over-sealons people of the United States, and caused them to ex claim: "There is none perfect; no, not one." Hobson's greatness waned be cause of bis propensity for osculation, An amusing Incident happened a short distance out in the country on Tuesday ot last week, says ths Corvallis Gazette.- An old farmer living out there, on walking out into his yard and gazing across the expanse of fields and meadows beheld a spectacle in the dis tance that came near astounding him. Awav out there, shining like a ball of fire fust over the horizon, could be seen a star, so brilliant and luminous that its sister constellations were hut objects of pity. "Good at, Mary, come out here and look at that star out yonder I" he called to his wife. They both gazed, and wondered, but tbe only conclusion they could arrive at, was that the strange spectacle was one of the meteors billed to come, snd it had arrived early. The old innocents retired, to arise in the morning to find the star still there, and there it will be for many years to come, for it was naught but the big electric arc light beaming from the tower of the college administration building. Tues day evening being the first time they were set nurning. M M rOR rORTLAND, PAILY. ffl -TIAMIrl- it America" M Willamelf Slongli Route M M M H Leave Bt.
