Every time the chairman raps for order he will bring down on Ihe table a gnvel made from a log hewn by Ihe immortal statesman-president.

The populist assessor made nnstakes in the assessment mil last year to (he amount of V 1 .000, and then charged the county f I'd more for his work than is usu ally charged.

Still the cry last year was 'cut down the salaries' all around." Columbia Is another Oregon county that has given the populists a trial and found them wanting, that is, wanting everything in eibt and grasping for more. That sconnty elected a populist sheriir, assessor and commissioner out of a county ticket as a result of thrir cry fur reform and a reduc tion in the county expenses. Before the expiration of bis term of office the sheriff had stolen all the county funds he could lay bis hands on and skipped the country, and leaving the taxpayers a practical lesson in reform, for he had been sharp enough to Thave his bonds fixed so that they were val ueless. The a8essor made such gross er rors in making np bis assessment roll, and made such an unequal assessment, his val uations being made on party lines, and not properly accounting for the oll tax he collected, that one term finished bini and all chances of there ever being another pop ulist assessor in Columbia county. The commissioner worked his office for all there was in it, and his extras amounted each month to as much as Ids regular salary. Altogether the taxpayers of Columbia comity have had a dear experience with pop ulism and " reform," and the populists will cat but little figure in the forthcoming elec tion in that county. Columbia county is no exception to the rule, lor in every county in the state where the populists gained con trol Ihe taxpayers have had the same ex perience. One term of the parly lias suf ficed, and the taxpayers were more than anxious to have the old parties hack in poer. Carthage, Kill present the gavel to the con vention.

Yet methlnks physicians can en- loiTfangfei1 and Ee fear the other's success: for should Mr. Tongue or any of the other aspirants secure the nomination there would be a possibility of the fight over the office being ended for the next four years or perhaps longer, while with Hermann renominated it leaves the field clear for another contest two years hence. It some times stands an office holder well in hand to have a numlier of active workers anxious to hold down his job. Kor if he is shrewd he can turn their rivalries to good advantage and profit by their dissensions. BIMETALLISM IN OHIO. That the E.sTtki m is a iiewsuuper in every sense of the word is conceded by all who are familiar with its columns, and that it will compare favorably with papers pub lished in the more pretentious towns ot the country is quite apparent. In proofof this, without being guilty of egotism, we cite the remark of a recent arrival in Oregon City, who regularly buys the Kmtkui'Kise at Hunt ley's book store, that he found it contained more live news matter than the leading pa per of his old home town in the Last, a place of some 13,000 population.
