But as now practical, the sciouee of photogra phy is so nearly perfect as to catch even this extremely short period of time, and photographs showing soap bobble in the act of bursting are announced.

The Salem StulemiM is too good paper to iudulge in its foolish re flections on the Portland exposition . and its management. It is a gen era! verdict that tho exposition this yeaf is a greater success than ever before, and it illy becomes the Stottman to indulge ina splenetic tirade against it, savoring Btrongly of being actuated by personal mo tives. Warn Sun. V Tub subject of the civil war war Inadvextly introduced in a mixed company of Northern and Southern gentlemen the other day and nntentiomUly thediscnsslon became Warm. "Well, we licked you rebs, anyhow," said one of the Northen era. "Yes," replied the Southern er. blandly, "you did; but from the number of applicants for pen sions, I should jndge that we crip pled every blamed one of you." JVeiff York Sim. While the West Side is dis tinctively independent, yet it has positive convictions upon subjects of pnblio policy. Our readers are not dummies, but intelligent and progressive. We shall, no donbt express "views not entertained by all who may read our writings, but we shall always "divide time and space" with those who may differ from us. We certainly shall not run a paper only fit for the morgue, nor one over whose every issue, will be necessary to hold a coroner' inquest We intend to be fair but shall not wear graveclothes. As a matter of fact, the people of Oregon, especially those in the first congressional district, need the ser vices of Hon. Binger Hermann, the congress of the United States. It was an error upon his part, to make any pledges as to his retire ment from the services of the poo pie, so long as they, desired those services. It is not certain that he made those pledges, and whether he did or not, he is in the hands of the people. Hr. Harry Miller, of Josephine connty, declares himself a candidate against Mr. Hermann, on the Republican ticket. His strikers, a little farther north, in Douglas, will avail but little. When the day comes for nomina tion, the cobwebs will all dissapcar and Mr. Hermann will be nom inated by acclamation, as Usual. Referring to a recent strike on the part of men in New York City recently, . the Oregonian remarks that "it is charged, with much ac companying proof, that pure sel- flshness on the part of the men in stituted the strike. They believe, and with some reason, that if em ployers are compelled to pay full wages to women, they will prefer to hire men instead of women." That this is not true at least so far as one industry that of printing is concerned, the Oregonian need go no further than its own com posing room to demonstrate, for there it will find both men and women working side by side and receiving exactly the same pay. Really it is hard to believe, with the Oregonian, that Amorican workingmen ,are such depraved and selfish wretches; indeed, to most people the example furnished """he Oregonian1 composing room V i disprove such an assertion.! MCk'SLKY AXD JlwiXX' Perhaps no coutM of a political nature has occurred since the mem orable eouteet between Lincoln and Dougliwa " that has attracted so much attention as Uie one going ou now in Ohio between McKiuley and Campbell. Such battles of woids, wpwiully when conducted by such representative meu, are a source of much information, and are great educators of the nutmes. Tariff and fluanee, while not new questions, yet because of the clou relation they bear to every Amer ican cititcn, and are so, closely al lied to so many of the avocations of lifts we subjects Uiat we all do, or should manifest more or less inter est in. It is hardly possible to select two more able champions to represent the issues upon which Uie two po litical parties differ, titan the geiu Uemcn referred to; and the out come will be watched with much solicitude, uot only by every A uior- icau citisen, but by foreign natious as well. Ohio being a rather doubtful state politically, and at present presided over by a ' lKmocratie governor, it would seem that after a most thorough canvass of some months, that should McKiuley be elected governor, it would presage a national Republican victory in m Certain it is that each sue eeediug month ouly proves the lie. publican doctriue, or theory of protection to be the correct one, and the McKiuley-bill, instead of being an "incubus" as some Rem ocralio papers wore wont to call it when first passed, is growing In favor with the people, and by the time of our next uatioual content it will have won its way among the masse to such an extent, that ocueve many or its - bitterest ene mies will admit its Justice and ben euuial effect. But, Mr. Editor, as important as these questions art, I desire to add that iu my opinion neither of thorn are of as much importance just at this time to us of Oregon asthequea tion of who shall represent Oregon from this district next year. Quite a number of papers throughout the district I see are discussing the possibilities and probabilities of various candidates, but so far, have uot observed a single eiyee tion urged against our present able and iudefutigable member lion Binger Hermann, consequently am led to believe that whatever of words (they have uo argument) that have been urged in favor of tho nomination of a new man by the Republican papers, is either born in the mind of some would be candidate, or instigated by some mercuiral editor who In gifted only as a place hunter. I believe a close scrutiny of the records would bear out the asser tion that Air. Hermann una accom plished more for his state, time of service considered, than any other congressman has for his district, let alone a whole state. It Is to be hoped that the Republicans will bear in mind that this, the first district is not so overwhelmingly Republican as the state is when the convention is culled together, and that it is not possible to name new mnn that will command ti e respect and attention that Mr. Hermann does, aud so sure as sonic new aud untried man is nominated the Democrats will name some one of their bont and ablest men and the result is to say the least, doubt ful. Should Mr. Hermann decline the nomination it would most cer tainly appear cheeky for a South- em Oregon man to claim the honor. liter all, I have full faith in the wisdom aud intelligence of tho next Republican convention of this district, and believe that the dele g ttes to that convention will make the proper nomination, unaided by any self sacrificing and self-con stituted candidates. Such being the use, i.nd the ikuiio of Hon. Dinger Herman flying at the mast head ho will be rr fleeted by such an overwhelming inujonty that even his opponent will feci like of fering a motion to make his . elec tion unanimous. . Republican. THAT DAKOTA BLIZZARD. The West Side formerly pub lislied independent, politically, bears now the complexion of J". Ji, N. Iiett Democratic Farmer Al- Hanoi, and reminds one of aJ)akola blizzard, or some other tired feel ing. Voile County Observer. . , lndcc(l,tobe a Democrat, is sore ly not a crime, if so, our congress at present is intensely criminal, and to have the complexion of a Farmers' Alliance, is not an uncomely sight; yet we have no doubt but what Messrs. Doughty and Snyder, in their loneliness, have a "tired feei ng," as they look over the wreck that terrible "Dakota blizzard" made last fall, when it swept over the country, aud filled the halls of congress to overflowing with Dem ocrats and Alliance men. Yes, we do not wonder at your "tired feel ing," gentlemen, as you peruse the columns of the Wkbt Side, and see the cloud, about "the size , of a man's hand," which contains anoth er "bllzzara," tuar win cnango your present "complexion," to one of a more "crimson hue."

The supreme court of the United States has decided this point in harmony with the govern or's views, the supreme court of Oregon decided Uie wagon road appropriations as unconstitutional, and that was the view the governor held; aud so, it begins to look as if Governor Penuoyer understands himself, in some things at least.

But Oregon's big daily has one particular editor whose flue llallttti hand and clean-cut classical English always ' attract attention whatsoever the subject discussed. The Elysian fields of science, the intricate labyrinth of historical and religious criticism, the enticing but evereseent value of polities, the charming domain of classical literature are all spread out in panoramic view before this brilliant writer's mental vinlon.
