With this issue Thk Mist begins the seventeenth year of its existence, and the circumstances under which it enters upon another year are favorable in the extreme. The age of tho paper, its loy alty to home interests, its reliable dis semination of the transpiring local - events, has given it an established rep utation in the county. Its business, reliability and permanency have been established, and its continued existence from year to year has fully demonstra ted that it is a fixture, with merits which recommend it to the support of the people with the assurance that it lives at all times, not depending soully upon the patroncgo of any one particu lar person or liable to be buffeted hither and thither by each adverse gale. Keverses occur, of coarse, but such are met and overcome, and the assistance rendered by the support of the people in greater volume than heretofore is an encouraging indication that the efforts of - the management in supplying the best paper possible under the circumstances are appreciated and encouraging. The paper has its political principle, which it champions fearlessly. It fearlessly condemns crime and discountenances im morality. Its aid has never been known to have been extended to any trick or scheme to further individual interests as against the public good, and its aim baa always been to commend and en courage humanity when doing right. This paper has and will stand firmly upon the principle of encouraging pub lic and private enterprise so long as honest methods are employed, and it frill as readily condemn public or pri vate persons when attempting to bully or drive individuals or sentiment against the best interests of all concerned. By constant adherence to such a princi ple, the paper is enabled to continue to do business at the old stand. Sssator McBride has been particu larly favored by appointment on com mittees in the senate. He has been made chairman of one of the most im portant committees, that of coast de fenses, and is a member of six other committees. His abilities are recog pUed and hia usefulness as a valuable senator, for the nation in general and this coast in particular, is the heartiest endorsement he can have. The senator was chairman of one of the most im portant committees in the last session, and hig appointment to the chairman ship of so important a committee in the present session is just cause for con gratulation for the people of this great and good commonwealth. Nor is this all. Senator McBride's appointment to a place on the committee to outline a policy and style of government for the Philippine islands is due recognition of bis ability. Today there is no more im portant work for the American congress than that of properly preparing for the great increase in our volume of business and strength and importance as a nation than the manner in which the Philip pine problem is solved. McBride's ap pointment is a credit to himself and to the people he represents. As time runs on the fact comes out distinctly that the revolt in Luzon is a brutal attempt of a few to tyrannize over the many. The outbreak has jiever been anything more than a con spiracy in a portion of one tribe to dominate all the other tribes, and to bully the United States of a treaty made with one of the acknowledged powers of the world. In just one. island out of 1200 has there been serious opposition to the authority of this country. Where trouble has arisen in other islands the same band of ambitious Tagal leaders has stirred it up, Tarnishing emissaries to head the movement. Our army sent across the Pacific is rescuing a people from a lawless, savage and irresponsible element. The great body of Filipinos are well disposed. They want a chance to better their condition by peaceful labor. Setting op a. new sovereignty among nations is not one of their de sires, nor is their knowledge of gov ernment sufficiently advanced to grasp the subject. There are thousands in the Philippines who desire tranquil times under the American flag where there are tens who plot and fight to expel us and rule in our stead. . Thk passage of the currency bill in the house of national representatives on Monday by a vote of 190 to 160 is an indication that the people of the nation are quite content to continue the gold standard of measurement for money value. flie bill received the support of every republican member of the house, besides the vote of eleven democrats,.

General Henry W Lawton has been 6hot and killed at San Mateo. Ho was standing in front of hia troop?, and was shot in the breast, and died immediately. Lawton started Irom Manila laft night with cavalry under Captain I.wk ett, and battalions of the Twentieth aim xwenty-sevenin iiiiaiury, uuuer Lieutenant-Colonel Sarcent, for the pur pose of capturing ian Mateo, where tieronimo was said to have 300 inaur- irenta. 11 P. M. General Lawton left home Monday night, having returned from northern operations Saturday to lead an expedition inrougn Mariquina vauey, which has been the insurgent strong hold throughout tho war. The valley has several times been invaded, but never held bv the Americans. General Geronimo was supposed to have there the largest organized force north of Manila, and General Otis wished to garrison Mariquina. The night was one of the worst of the seawn. A terrific ram had begun and is still continuing. Accompanied by his staff and troop I, Fourth cavalry, General Lawton set out at 9 o'clock "in advance of the main force, consisting of the Eleventh cav alry and one battalion each of the Twentieth and Twenty-seventh infantry, which started from La Loma at mid night. With a small escort he led the way through an almost pathless country, a distance of fifteen miles over hills and through canebrake and deep mud, the horses climbing the rocks and sliding down the hills. Before daybreak the command had reached the head of ihe valley. McBRIIlE'S COMMITTEES. Important Assignments for Oregon's Senior Senator. Washington. Dec. 16. The Oregon senators are better fixed on committees than almost any of the senators who have served the same length of time and are still classed as new men in the senate. McBride is chairman of coast defenses and a member of commerce, Indian depredations, public lands forest reservations, interoceanic canals and Philippines seven committees. They are better committee assignments than any other man serving but four years has secured, with the single exception of Senator Carter, of Montana, while McBride's committees are much better for Oregon and the Pacific coast than are Carter's for the same section of the country. Four of the seven committees are of very great importance to the Pacific coast: Commerce, Philippines, inter oceanic canals and public lands, while the other three may be made of consid erable advantage should there be any legislation atfecting the coast defenses, forest reservations or any proposal to pay Oregon and Washington Indian dep redation claims. Compared to other senators who have served four years, McBride's commit tees stand out very prominently. Ba ker, of Kansas, has but two good commit tees District of Colnmbia and Indian affairs. Deboe, of Kentucky, has no good committee. Elkins, of West Vir ginia, is the only man that comes near to McBride in important committees, and his would not be so important to Oregon as those held by the latter. Gear, of Iowa, Thurston, of Nebraska, and Wetmore, of Khode Island, all have committees inferior to the senior sena tor from Oregon. In fact his committee places are much better than those of some men who are serving their second term. "Shenandoah" In I'ortland. The production of Bronson Howard's great drama of the civil war, "Shenan doah", which Jacob Litt will present at the Marquam Grand in Portland Christ mas week, is the same which Mr. Litt used at the Broadwav theater, New York City, last May, which was said at that time to tie the handsomest produc tion that had ever been given 011 the stage of a New York theater. The great feature of the Litt production is the battle scene which comes at the end of the third act. It is so real that it be comes actual. The Union troops are in full retreat, driven back by the Confed erates; the day seems lost. Suddenly in the distance are heard shouts. "Sheridan is coming," is the cry, and in a moment defeat is changed into victory. Squadron after squadron of cavalry and company after company of infantry dash across the stage, followed by the heavy artillery. It is a wonderful piece of stage mechanism and realistic to a degree. The company includes fifty horses and over two hundred people. It's really amusing the way the pop papers are floundering around between the devil and the deep sea, on the pros perity question. Take last Monday's lSKue of the Review as an illustration. The first thing on its editorial page was a frantic appeal to the voters to get to gether in Oregon, fuse, as it were, to save the country from titter ruin at the hands of the gold oligarchy, which, it claims, is oppressing the people, and grinding the faces of the poor. In the same column this paper boaBts that it's business during the present year has been the best in its history, and that its collections have been 20 per cent better than ever before. In the same paper appears a statement of the condition of the First National Bank, of Roseburg, showing that the people of Douglas county nave on deposit in that bank alone, more than $300,000. And yet, those whining, belly-aching hypocrites, prate abont the oppression of the people by the trustB and the money power, and insist that the voters "fuse," and go back to Pennoyerism and crankism in order that we may have gooa times in Oregon. Roseburg Plaindealor. OIH8 AND ENDS. Society will accept a nun with soiled character if Ills btots are only bright. Scandals are among the things that can hardly be said to improve with age. The latest excuse for Roberts is that it takes three Utah women to make one wife. is called a side Issue, prob ably for tlio reason that it involves so tunny ribs. Mr. Tavlor will be Governor of Ken tucky for the simple reason that he received tho most votes. The most carefully studied part of the speech of the polygamlst congress man was mat in wnicu uo aiaiiuvicu the president. The man who supposes that mibscrlU ing (or a copy of a newspaper gives him a montage u no wmmo wv fooled sometimes. Before the session is over Mr. Rich ardson will probably come into possesion of the plates from which the Book of Mormon was printed. Wliittm-er else mav 1 said of General I.awton it can never be denied that he died like a true soldier, leading his army against the common enemy. Democratic papers edge around the message as if thev couldn't find a good nlr to attack. They are not as hot against expansion as they were.

(ienetal Funston predicted that the Pliilimtinft rebellion would be ended by the 1st of February, but he seems to have given it entirely too much margin. When last heard from General Aguiii' aldo was troubled with a stitch in his side. This condition must have been caused by his having been hemmed in. If Roberts, of Utah, is a bigamist, what business haa he in the congress of the ITnited Slates? The nation haa never vet acceoted some particular kind of bigamy as harmless. The revenues of the United States for November exceeded the expenditures by :$6,000,000. Republican business methods of running the country are successful, wutther you like them or not. Goebel's partv quietly subsides 111 tvenhiekv under the pangs of a guilty conscience and the knowledge that the majority against them is too bis even for the worst trickster the suite has ever seen. Two men in the prohibition state of Kansas drank some smallpox disinfec tant, mistaking it for whiskey. What business had they in Kansas, drinking anything but a properly compounded drug-store prescription f Senator McBride's places upon the imoortant senate committees wlncli were assigned him gives him great power to accomplish a wonderful amount of good for this coast. The senator is equal to every emergency, as the ap pointments certainly indicate. According to Fish Commissioner Reed's annual report tiled in the office of the secretary of state, the total pack of Chinook salmon on the Columbia river was 294,708 cases, and fall salmon 4.5,417 cases. The amount of licenses collected in this district was $11, 014.40.
