with them. The guists then retired to
an antp-room. The Dowager Empress,
entering the room, grasped Mrs. Con
ger's hand, which she held for some
minutes, trembling, weening and sob
bing loudly and exclaiming in broken
sentences that the attack on the "lega
tions was a terrible mistake, and that
she repented it bitterly. In reply. Mrs. ;
Conger assured her that the past would j
be forgotten. Bracelets and rings of i
great value were then placed on Mr. '
Conger's wrists and Sneers. Other la
dies of the diplomatic come were then
presented and warmly greeted. Fol
lowing the reception a banquet was

animatedly. Bhe said that tlhina
would abandon her policy of isolation
and adopt the best featnres of Western
life and would send many students Kg
abroad. Afterward the Dowager Em- Wjj
press and the Empress mingled with
their guests, and her majesty conversed
with every one, and particularly noticed
the children. The emperor "was ad

Best, gon senators and represen
tatives have united in
signing a letter, which they will lay be
fore the secretary of the interior, with
'he appeal of Governor Geer, the chief
justice, and two associate justices of the
state, besides other officials and promi
nent citizens of Oregon, vigorously pro
testing against the displacement of Ore
gon men, who have shown by their
work thev are efficient as forest rangers,
and further protesting against the dis
placement of Oregon men as forestry of
ficers in the reserves of that state, and
the substitution of Eastern men in their
stead. We are of the opinion," says
the delegation, "that there are many
men residing in Oregon, who, by both
education and long experience of forest
life, are as fully capab e of filling these
positions as are 'men from the East, who
are mere theoribts, and who have never j
had any experience in connection with
this important subject. We trust, in
the selection of foresters in the future,
these statements will have careful con
sideration "

Sunday Morning, February 2,
Chinese At Pekin yesterday, the
Empress Dowager Empress and Em
Repents, peror received the ladies and
children of the diplomatic
corpi in the palace. The audience was
the most revolutionary event since the
retiun of the court to Pekin. . The ex
clusiveness of Chinese royalty and the
prejudices against the meeting of the
sexes was waived and the function was
less formal than is usual in the Euro-
Dean courts. The Dowager Empress
occupied the throne, w:th a brilliant as
semblage of princesses and court ladies
about her. The emperor wag seated on
a small platform in the center of the
room The visitors, upon entering,
bowed twice to the emperor, and several
of them ascended to the throne und
bowed to the Dowager Empress. Mn.
Conger, wife of United States Minister
Conger, as doveness of the diplomatic
corps, read a speech, which was trans
lated by Secretary Williams. The Dow
ager Empresses' reply was exceedingly
friendly in tone, it was in part as Jul
lows: "Laat ear tbe dissension" in
the palace caused a revolution which
compelled our hasty departure, but it is
a great gratification to us that our re
turn to tbe capital has caused such re
joicing io China and abroad." Baron
Zzinkaun, the Austrian minister, and
doyen, of th diplomatic corps, pre
sented all the ladies to the Dowager
for the world, and the Jews were still
being crucified. They had been perse
cuted, suffered death, because they were
Jews all for their religion. Even now
there being peisecuted in Roumania,
Russia and Germany. In pointing a fin
ger of scorn at the Jews they say that
Judas was a Jew, but they forget that
Christ was a Jew, It was the Romans,
not the Jews that crucified Christ. The
Jews from the beginning, have ever
been earnest pleaders of liberty.
It is a fact, however, not touched upon
iu Rabbi Wise's lecture, the Jews of
America, E. gland and France are the
financiers, the politicians, statesman
and merchants of these countries. Not
only this, but they are distinguishing
themselves in the professions, journal
ism, the Btage, and are prominent ev
ery where.
rPANK BUSCH
SOME county papers are printing
lists of the heavy taxpayers. As the
present assessment law does not pro
vide for deduction of indebtedness, the
amount of tax some individuals pav, is
no indication of their wealth. A per
son may be mortgaged for more than he
isworth, and have his name on many
security bonds, yet if his debts were
paid, he would not own a spot to lay hit
head. In the old days w hen the asses
eor deducted indebtedness it was possi
ble to know who were the owners of
wealth.
The Housefumisher
IT is a noteworthy fact that the busi
ness of Oregon City had increased to ap
preciable proportions during the past!
yeur. There wera an increased num
ber of mercantile houses, and it
took a small army of clerks in the ag
gregate to wait on the numerous cus
tomers at certain seaBOiin of the yeur.
Of course, there is a reason for this im
proved condition of affairs. The princi
pal cause was the improvement of sev
eral county roads leading to the city.
President Cross and other members of
the board having labored diligently to
this end. Good roads leading from cer
tain sections enabled the people to
drive to tbe county seat with comfort.
The establishment of a commission
house also materially aided in making
Oregon City a better market town. All
these things encouraged the merchants
to keep better and larger stocks. The
banks claim that the deposits have ap
preciably increased from the sections
tapped by improved roads during the
past year. Oregon City needs more of
these roads to connect other sections of
the county.
A NUMBER of Clackamas county
farn crs raised dollar wheat during the

hogs in the aggregrate, were butchered
by Clackamas county farmers, and but
very little wheat was sold in the raw
state. -
