Tub ocean used to be considered about

Tub "crime of dying rich," as Carne

Poverty is tha back-door that leads to

POLITICAL NOTES.
The next issue of the Courier-Herald
will prove that county is nearly $200,
000 in debt. Also that the county ran
behind nearly $10,000 last year and how
an ante-election promise caused the
deficit.
The rumor that Judge Kyan would
run independent, if not nominated
by the republican convention is prob
ably without foundation. Mr. Ryan has
made a very good judge and if he wishes
the Domination for second term he can
get it, though it was reported he did not
wish another term as he could hardly
afford to take it at the reduced salary,
and G. B. Dimick was mentioned as the
candidate of the machine. Mr. Ryan Is
mentioned as candidate for judge on the
proposed independent ticket and mieht
be acceptable to that element, but it
would not do for the republican? to turn
him down. There is not much doubt
but that the next legislature will restore
the judge to power and do away with
the third commissioner which office has
not proven satisfactory nor economical
for the people.

large audience with his calculations of
the probable total amount of gravita
tional matter in the visible universe.
He showed that if, 25,000,000 years ago,
1,000,000,000 masses, each equal to our
sun, had been distributed through a
sphere about 18,000,000,000,000 ,000 miles
in radius, they would now have ac
quired velocities about equal to those
known to be poesessecUhy the stars visi
ble to us. Therefore it is probable that
the total amount of gravitational matter
in the visible universe does not differ
much from that of 1,000,0000,000 euns.
Tub New York Central llnilroad docs
considerable advertising for Oregon and
tha Northwest in tho magazine pub
lished by its passenger department. In
the January number of this m iuziuo,
which is called the "Four Track News,"
appear two articles describing the re
sources of Oregon and the coming Lewis
& Clark cxpositio i.
Loi;i Roiikhts made a little speech to
Boldiers leaving Loudon for the Trans
vaal, in which lie cautiuikd them not to
swear; but ho did not even allude to the
fact, as he well might, that the British
soldiers now at tho seat cf war are
c urged with having raped two-thirds of
tho Boer women over 14 years of age. It
would not be nice to allude, to such
things in public.
Cwn. Kuodks, the author o. the South
African war, Maxim, the world-famous

Scotchman, who, under form of law,

Ureal Britain and her colonies to join

Tub degree of perfection attained in
the economical and profitable use of
electricity at long distances from the
point of its generation is startling. Red
wood, Oil., is supplied with the elec
tric current by ft 15,000 horsepower
plant on tho North Yuba river, through
a stretch of wire having a length of 214
miles, which spans Carquinoz Hay
some thousands of foot in width, by an
aerial cable suspended from a tower on
each shore.

Aflunkara-Hissar, Konir, Karaman.Ere-
gli, Adana, Tell-IIabe.ch, Mosul and
Bagdad, to Koweyt, with branches to
Aleppo and Chauekin. The route is

reasons is urging on Russia.
lures entering the United States from

mum rates of France to most of the ar-
! tii lea entering that country from the
United States. Besides these there are
treaties unratified with Nicaragua, Ecua
dor, the Danish West Indies and the
Dominican Republic, from which the in
junction of -ecreey has not been re
moved. The pending agreemente have
been "held up" id the senate because
they are not satisfactory to some of the
millionaire protected interests that
would be affected by them. The pros
pect for their ratification ;is not believed
to be favorable.
In a lecture on international law de
livered by Trof. Jellinck at the Heidel
berg University, he said: "The Span
ish American war was of Immense im
portance in tho future development of
international law. America, whose
policy previously had been 'to abstain, in
accordance with the principles of the
Monroe doctrine, from the affairs of
European governments, now abandoned
that position and became sue of tho pow
ers. 1 he people are divided into sup
porters and opponents of the present
policy, and if the former, wha.ha-a ben
called imptrialists, succeed the organi-
zation of the government will ine.-itably
become similar to that of European coun
tries; individual liberty the ritrhts nf
each particular man will be sacrificed
in securing a strong central direction."
As the shifting policy of the republi
can party with regard to pending recip
rocity treaties is a matter of concern to
every one taking an interest in public
auairs, it Is at lemt worthwhile to as
certain where, iu respect to this policy,
the government stands. The ponding
treaties, from which the injunction of
secrecy has boon removed, provide: For
reduction of the duty on sugar, molasses
and asphalt from the British West In
dies and Guiana, and removal or reduc
tion of the duty on a long list of agricul
tural products and manufactures enter
ing those colonies from the United
States. For a reduction of 20 percent
ot tuo duty on sugar, hides and eerlain
grades of wood entering the United
States from Argentina, and a reduction
in the duty on a long list of food s hi lis
and manufactures enrering Argentina
from tho United States. For a reduction
of 20 to o0 per cent on certain manufac-

Editor Courier-Herald: Your corres

marks relative to our forthcoming elec
tion As my name seldom, if ever, ap
pears iu print, I do this through purely
patriotic motives, not being a candi
date lor any office in the gift of the peo
dle of Clackamas county. It is well
sometimes, if not always, to consider the
advice of our elders. In this line I will
say that my father told me never to en
ter the political arena, and it can readily
be seen or imagined what were his reasons-
not that I was too dull to hold my
own with the fattest and best of them,

Quite a large number of prominent
democrats of Clackamas county have ex
pressed themselves as being favorable to
a straight democratic ticket In prefer
ence to an independent ticket.and argue
with a good deal of truth that many of
those favoring an independent move
ment are after office "pie". They alto
say truly that the democratic party is
the only reform party that can expect to
to get its principles adopted by the peo
ple and eventually inculcated into the
laws of the country. These are facts,
but still many who have been voting
with us object to the name and hence
will not vote such a ticket. While we
believe the laborer is worthy of his hire
we till think that such a ticket pledged
io a radical reform in county affairs.such
as the reduction of the salaries one-half
would be a winner. A prominent ab
stracter guarantees to assess the
county for $2500 per year in as good
shape as at present. It now costs over
$9000. The writer is satisfied he could
make money by taking a contract to fill
all the offices of Clackamas comity tor
less than ball the present salaries.
According to reports Henry E. Stevens
and J) . t,. Sleight will be the nominees
for recorder and clerk on the republi
ticket, although Justice McAnulty stands
a good show for clerk.

Harl Engle, of Molalla, has been men
tioned in connection with the democratic
nomination for sheriff, and if he should
consent to run he would make the best
run of any we know.
The opinion of most of the Deonle is
that George W. Grace ia the man that
will make the best run far senator
against Brownell. He is not a politician
and would only accept if his nomination
were unanimous. C. D. Latourette could
have secured the nomination if he had
taken a prominent part as joint chair
man two years ago. Dr. Beattie. of Ore
gon City, seems to be the choice of the
Molallaites for senator. He is a fighter
when it comes to politics.
