Presidant llogran is desirous of another

his intention of running for the presi

2(KH) men have been stationed on the
Honduras frontier to prevent this invaS'

Paris, Sept. 20. The whole press of
this city condemns Emperor William's
recent speech at Erturt in which it is
reported he alluded to Napoleon as a
"Corsician parvenu."
Viknna, Sept. 20. A painful impres
sion has been produced in the highest
Austrian circles by the report of the
kaiser's remark about Napoleon I., and
anxiety is expressed that he will be un
able to deny it. The house of Hapsburg,
strange as it may seem, has Napoleon
enrolled as one uf its connections by
marriage with Archduchess Maria
Louise. The Austrian Imperial family
is tho proudest in Europe and it accepted
tho first Napoloon intp its house. The
King of Sweden is descended from ono
of Napoleon's generals. So to rovile
the little Corsican is to offend a large
portion of European royalty.
Valparaiso, Kept. 21. Ex-president
Baltnaceda committed suicide Satur
day morning at the Argentine leg- ;
ation in Santiago, and the event is the
one absorbing topic of conversation ia
every part of the city. There la a min
gled feeling of savage rejoicing at hi
death, and bitter regret that he should
have killed himself, instead of falling in
to the club.hes ol tniunaiea wizens,
who would have delighted to rend him
inib from limb for the long list of cruel-
ties for which they hold him responsible. ,
It is impossible for anyone not in this
country, or not a native, to realize the
intensity of the hatred entertained
toward the ex-preBident. The national
holidays, which were to have ended
Saturday night, have been prolongea or
the suicide. The feasts, illuminations,
and other celebrations in honor of the
success of the congressional party re
kept up, followed by the marching of
fremied crowds through all tlie street,
shouting songs of triumph over tl9
death of their lormer ruler.
It isthe general belief that Balmaceda s
death will hasten, in a great deerw!, lii
restoration of peace throughout Chill.
Now that the chief enemy of the victori
ous junta is no more, it is likely bis
followers will be shown mercy, since
without Balmaceda to direct them there
is very little to be feared. Italy, France,
! Sweden and Norway have followed the
lead of the United States in the official
recognition cf the junta. Germany,
it willM remembered, was the second
natioaf ttulo so. No official recognition
has ytt come from England, This
creates considerable comment.

inent democrats from abroad were
present.

tions were np in the millions, was an

corn.
Fifteen thousand people were waiting
to cross into the territory opened for set
tlement adjoining Oklahama Tuesday

rush for locations the moment the hour
for opening arrived. There is com
plaint that the government supervision
of the event was wofully deficient, there
being but 200 soldiers and 250 deputy
marshals to keep things straight. It is
estimated that fully 3000 settlers
entered before the legal time.
The temperature was lower than forthe
preceding week. The weather was
cloudy or partly cloudy, with grain in
latter part of the week. An earthquake
was felt, especially in the Willamette
valley, about 9 o'clock on the evening of
the 10th.

Hop picking is nearly ovei. The hop
yield amounts to about two thirds of the
ordinary crop, the lice and mould hav
ing caused the loss of the other third.
Corn in Jackson and Josephine coun
ties is being cut. The yield is larger than
for many years. Grapesiu the southern
counties are ripening and wine making
will begin within a few weeks. Thresh
is generally over, exeept occasional
small stark in a few localities Reports
continue to indicate that the farmers
are all pleased with the products se
cured, save hops. Peaches, pears, ap
ples and melons are very plentiful ; the

enough sacks to hold the wheat and
more had to be ordered. In other coun
ties the supply of sacks was about used
up, Bhowing the grain to have yielded
so much more than was expected. The
yield of cereals ia unusually great in all
interior counties. Preparations are
being made tor getting the grounds in
order for seed. Summer fallow is being
worked and many sections expect to
have a larger acreage next year, than
they had this.
