Tin bounty for tlta destruction of wild
animals ia attml to be a tiling ol the pant
In a number of counties in tills state. Mult
nomah. rounly has recently abolished the
giving bounties and Marion county is about
to follow suit. Several other counties are
considering the advisability of repealing the
bounty. The opponents to the bounty
giving claim that it is a useless expense to
tax payers and that the sportsmen need on
extra incentive to rid the country of wild
animals. In fact the sportsmen have
waged so relentless a warfare that there Is
scarcely a bird or animal large enough to
shoot at in the woods, and the love ol
adventure and sport is sufficient Incentive
to our hunters to keep the wild animals
in check.

TUESDjrS ELECTIONS.
The elections Tuesday were prolific of
great results. Tammany was crushed; a
beginning was made in the breaking up of
the solid South ; general demoralization
waa brought to the democratic party, and
the country was relieved of the tariff incu
bus that has bung over it like a pall for
the last two years.
This is the most crushing defeat the dem
ocrats have ever suflered, and it will take
them another thirty years to recover from
its effects. The populists, also, cane in for
their share of public condensation, and are
practically wiped out as a party.
The majorities are unprecedented. The
figure of 100,000 will be exceeded in at least
three states New York, Pennsylvania and
Obio. The republicans claim 40,000 in In
diana, democratic state almost ever since
the war; eO.000 in Iowa, 70,000 in Illinois
and 30,000 in Wisconsin, both of which
were carried by Cleveland in 1892 ; 45,000 in
Massachusetts and others in proportion.
Even Chicago, which has been considered a
democratic stronghold, is likely to show up
30,000 republican majority. The defeat in
New York city of Tammany was even more
thorough than at first given out. Wilson's
defeat is verified. Owens in Kentucky has
hopes. Budd is elected governor of Cali
fornia. The sensation of the day, however,
is the fact that the fusionints hare carried
North Carolina, and will elect two Jnited
States senators, and it is probable that Ten
nessee will elect a republican senator.
This is but the forerunner of '90, when the
republicans are sure to get full control of j
in government, me people nave round
oat that " tariff" and other " reforms" are
something to be shunned and propose to
have nothing furthr to do with them. The
eflect of Tuesday's elections will be to give
confidence to the business interests of the
country, and confidence is the first step in
the restoration from the financial and in
dustrial depression into which the country
has fallen.
Evm in far off Newfoundland the road
question has became of such importance
as to have a bearing on the politics ol that
province. In the recent election held
good roads was made an issue and the party
in power in order to maintain themselves
in office against strong opposition based
on other grounds, for some months prior
to the election pushed the building of roads
throughout the province with such vigor
that popular feeling was turned in their
lavor with a result that their candidates
were all elected. The haul is such that the
people will do almost anything to get good
roads.
Portlasp, failing to have the regular an
nual exposition, has decided to have a Hol
iday fair to run during the month of IV
cember. The exposition building is being
rapidly prepared for the exhibits, and Pi
rector Hordt expects to have the greatest
exposition ever held in Portland, AH the
best exhibits that were in the mid-winter
fair in San Francisco and at the interstate
fair at Tacoma have been secured, besides
many new attractions. The exposition is
meeting with encouragement from the busi
ness men of Portland and every eflort is be
ing made to make the fair, worthy ol the
city.
Tin movement to purify the bar has
begun to bear fruit. Horald Pilkington, one
of the moat disreputable lawyers of Portland
and well known in this city for his worth-
lessness, has been sent to the penitentiary
lor two years tor eniDextiement. with a
few more like him sent to the penitentiary
and several more disbarred Irom the profes
sion, the practice of law will become more
honorable in Portland and the robbery of
clients will be stopped.
Schools and roads are the two great fac
tors in the development of a country. In
both Clackamas county leads and is doing
more than any other county in the state.
Intending settlers are sure to make a note
of it to the advantage ot our county.
Tbibx are now over 250,000 words in the
English language acknowledged by the best
authorities, or about 70,000 more than in the
German, French, Spanish and Italian lan
guages combined.
The eighteenth biennial session of the
Oregon legislature will convene in Salem

SPIRIT Oi THE I'KtSS.
OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
It is a matter to be proud of that Clack
amas county possesses the best system of
public schools of any county in the state
outside of Multnomah. In no other county
t n Oregon other than Multnomah has the
public schools received the attention from
the county court as in this county. Under
the present snd preceding administrations
the office of school superintendent has been
treated as of as much importance as any of
the county offices. A well fitted office room
in the court house was provided and sup
plied with necessary record books, etc., in
eluding complete maps showing district
boundaries so that there should be no con
fusion in the school affairs of the county.
The superintendent bas been paid a good
salary and required to devote his entire
time to the duties of bis office. As a result
the standard of the schools of Clackamas
county cannot be excelled on the coast.
Good schools is one of the best indications
a county can offer in seeking a desirable
immigration. The class of people that will
do the most for the upbuilding of a section
are the ones that are attracted by the effi
ciency of the schools. In fostering our
public schools the county court is both at
tracting a class of desirable citizens who
will become taxpayers and creating educated
voters who will always be on the side of
law and order in the affaire ot the country.
A riw days after the battle of Gettys
burg American sailors fired several shots
which, if not beard round the world, were
of immense importance to Japan. The
United States ship Wyoming, carrying six
guns, found that the element hostile to for
eigners had fortified the strait leading from
Yokohama and posted three war ships to
dispute the Wyoming's departure. About
that time Americans were in good form for
three or four battles a day, and Captain
David McDougal steamed right through the
strait, blowing npone of the shore batteries,
sinking two of the Japanese ships and disa
bling the third. It is said that from this
fight dates the Japanese determination to
turn from ancient to modern civilization
and to send their sons to be educated at
our naval academy.
The homestead exemption law passed by
the last legislature is not the success antici
pated. Of its workings the Courier of this
city has the following to say: The law al
lowing a householder $1500 exempt from at
tachment, produces results not looked for
by the kind-hearted legislator whose brain
conceived it. The poor and rich are made
of the same dirt, there being rascals in either
clans. Many poor people are taking advan
tage of the law by running in debt at the
grocer's and the butcher's, and then laugh
ing in their face when they present their
bill. Ask the retail dealers in this city who
have done a credit business, and they will
show you large aggregate amounts which
they would gladly sell for 50 cents on the
dollar. Poor people must live, of course,
But if our credit storekeepers bad not ceased
their liberal crediting of goods for which
they must pay cash, they would all be either
in bankruptcy or on the verge of it. Rich
villains steal banks and railroads, bribe
congressmen and buy legislatures, but the
poor villains swindle the groceryman
may be very hard for a rich cent-per-cent to
get into heaven, but it is none the less true
that poverty doesn't necessarily make a fel
low fond of the Golden Bale.
The Vancouver Columbian makes a good
point in discussing the unequalities ot the
law in regard to innocent purchasers. On
this subject it says: A man steals a horse,
sells it to an innocent party, who buys it
in good faith. The owner comes, takes
away his horse and the man who lias
bought is a loser to the extent of the pur
chase price. A knave procures a farmer's
signature to a paper proponing to be an
agency contract for the sale of some ma
chine. By tearing off a part of it the re
mainder with the signature becomes
promissory note. Rascal number one sells
it to rascal number two and the latter sues
to recover. The courts decide that the farmer
must pay the "innocent" bolderof the fraud
tainted paper. Is there anything out of
joint in these cases?
The Roseburg Plaindealer has the follow
ing to say in speaking of the change in the
tone of the democratic reformer: Two years
ago 80-cent wheat and 20-cent wool broke the
heart of the democratic party in its tender
solicitude and commiseration for the farm
ers of the country. Now. under democratic
times, any mention of 28-cent wheat and
6-cent wool is regarded by that party as a
most unpatriotic and reprehensible calamity
bowling.
Gov. Pennoyer's quoting scripture in his
thanksgiving proclamation is proving a
boomerang to himself. The Albany Demo
crat is giving the governor a few quotations
to ponder over, thus: The governor seems
to be hampered with the same short-sightedness
that falls to the lot of all those who
read the Bible but superficially and by short
verses, here, one and there one. Had the
governor taken the pains to read the re
mainder of the chapter from which be
quotes be might have been led to consider
the import of the following : " The heart of
the wise is in the bouse of mourning; But
the heart of fools is in the house of mirth,"
Again the governor's eyes might have be
held the following wise saying: " Hay not
thou what Is the cause that the former davi
were better than thesef For thou dost not
Imagine wisely concerning this," Or the
governor might have "considered'' hli own
political course In the light of the wisdom
expressed in the same chapter of the good
Hook, as follows: " He not righteous
overmuch; neither make thyself overwise.
Why shouldest thou destroy thyself?" Ver
ily our governor Is unfortunate in his public
utterances.
The Dalles Chronicle having read up the
latest in medical science has undertaken to
prescribe for the mental Improvement of
the members of our next legislature, and
gives the following prescription ; The latent
theory of pathology Is that by feeding a fel
low on the substance In which be ia short
or weak, the particular organ can be devel
oped. For instance, a man troubled with s
muscularly weak heart should be fed on the
heart of an ox, w hich is said to be the
strongest or any animal; the Idea being that
the stomach will apportion what goes into
Jit so It will do the most good. If this be
true, it is Indeed fortunate that the noblest
of all animals, the horse, is now dirt cheap,
and can be utilised in furnhdiing brains and
good horse sense to the cltiiens of Oregon.
We suggest that Secretary Mcllride counter
mand his order for eu-knivea and inve.it

ranges of Kastvrn Oregon.
The Oregonian in speakinii of the effects
of the recent election has the following
truthlii! observation to make: There will I
immense jubilation throughout the country
not for a party victory, but because there
will be the renewal of the spirit of hope in
revival and restoration of the policy nec
essary for the prosierity of the Country,
Though this cannot be gained at once, tli
results of yesterday point the way. There
is no part of the country that will not feel
the vivifying etlecls. The policy of the
democratic party is not the ollcy for the
welfare of the country. It was a grievous
mistake the country made In lKf, and
grievously hath it answered It. Hut II
has been trying to correct that mistake at
every opportunity since, and yesterday It
niadea tremendous essay In that direction.
As it repudiates the policy of the demo
cratic party and gains boe for the future,
the country will emerge from its night of
gloom; and from this day, therefore, mil
lions will take heart anu renew their cour
age. It Is yet a long time until the demo
cratic party can be entirely exielled; but
now it is put in a position where it can do
no more mischief, and one more effort will
deliver the country from lis blighting
policy.
The Portland Sun, the new dally of inde
pendent politics, speaking of Tuesday's elec
tion, which it terms a republican avalanche,
has the following to say: The democratic
party had their inning two years ago; this
year it suffers a crushing del. at. Voters
were not satisfied with republican legisla
tion; they are nut satisfied with democratic
legislation. The voters may not, as a rule,
know what is the trouble, even when they
think they do; but they have reached the
right conclusion in the abstract that
neither party has done what was necessary
to secure and protect the people's welfare.
Until seme party does the one thing that,
more than all others, will bring about this
result, the tide will surge backward anil
forward, always against the party in power.
Just now inevitably, it is the democratic
party that encounters the people's wrath.
It is in wer; it is held responsible. Hill
