For Wfi-ke the popiilinla haul Wn carrying- on a UtpKiilt campaign ami the empty dry good boxa in the country lore, had become liadly demoralized from the effrct of the whittlera knife. It wae too nice a day to ait in the houae or liang around the couoiry atore, ao many of tlmm came to town to air them- aelvea, and talk fiat money. An old j timer wan Hitting on the balutradn of I the RUHH'naion bridge, watching the -I phi pane up and down Main atreet, and . hy hia ido aut hia aon, one of thoae pro I cociou yotitha who atk 'pieationa that puz.le a wine man to armwer. The old man waa a ke-n oWrver of mun and thinxa, and mentally aied up each puHhcr-hy. Koon the hoy unahle to con-1 ' tain hltiiaelf any lonT, 1-ean to auk jtH'Htitjiin : lioy I'a; w ho are ail thote peoplu i walking up and down the atreet, and j aome of lliem are gathered in groups, eaincally talking? I'a Thoae, my aon ; are veritable 1 popnliata, regular calamity how lem. Hoy I'a); what are populiats? I'a My aon ; there are two kinds of i populieta. One clasa are the leaden I and boMtea, who look upon the common eople aa mere cattle to be driven about at will. The lutler are the other claaa, w ho are no doubt aincete in their ideal, I and work vailv and lale for the auccees I - .j - of Die party; and contribute to the cam paign fund. They have been duped by the boaa, who are after the oiU and ' honor of ollice. Boy Who ia that light-complexioned man, w ho tnovea around at a lively rate ; the other men Helen to him very atten tively when he talks ? Pa That, my aon; ia W. 8. U'Ren, the Clackamas county bosa and dicta tor of the populiats. lie heads the ticket as a candidate for representative, and was at one lime republican. He is virtually a carpet bagger, being a comparative recent arrival in the stale of Oregon, and as he ia not taxpayer, be is not, identified witb the interests of Clackainat county any more than to bold down a soft job aa manager of the Lewelling nursery at Milwaukee, which by tbe way has gone fluey under his alleged management. He would like to be governor of Oregon and pose as a second Pennover, conse quently he would give all his old clothes and half the populist party to get elected to office. He was formerly some thing of a lawyer, but when the spring days came his thoughts turned lightly from the nursery to those of seeking official position-. lioy I'a; who is that tall looking man with a light mustache and chin whisk errs. I have seen him in town so often during the past few months? Pa That my son; is G. W. Grace, the Ely merchant, who is the candidate on the populist ticket for sheritl". Mr boy, it is a striking fact that the popu lists leave the farmers out and give their best positions to merchants and law yers. In the laH few years Grace has accumulated a considerable portion of this world's goods by selling merchan dise to populist farmers at a big profit. The farmers' alliance, which was the father ot the populist party, did not per mit merchants aud lawyers to belong to the organization, but they captured the organization of the populist party and turned down the farmers. If Grace was a republican or democrat, the populists won). I calf him a grasping plutocrat Boy I'a, who is that quiet looking man, I see him in town every day? I'a That is Elmer l)ixon, the justice of district No. 4, and the populist candi date for county clerk. But, my boy ; I fear that he will have more time thun ever to devote to the breeding of fine poultry when his present term of office expires as justice of the peace. Boy Who is llmt bovish looking man coming down Seventh street? Pa That, my dear son; is another populist candidate for legislative honors. His name is George Ogle, of Medulla, For ' a long time he was a demo crat, but the insatiable fever for office, got the better ot his judgment, and he went over to the populists. He has so wasted his substance in seeking an offi cial Dosiiion at the hands of the popu lists and writing four-column articles on finance, that his worldly possessions now consist one lonely cay use horse. Boy Who is that coming across the suspension bridge in a wagon;- his horses and vehicle are covered with mud ? - Pa That, my son ; is J. II. Kruse, an other candidate for the legislature on the populist ticket, who pays no taxes. It is true, his vehicle and horses are covered with mud, but it is a self-evident fact that his name will be mud af ter the June election. Boy Pa ; who Is that man getting off the electric car; is he a populist, too? Pa Yes, my son; he is the candi-j date for county recorder, and hi name , is Alfred Lewellirig. He was oiicej county clerk of Washington county. It J beats ail how these professional politi cians get into the populist party. The office don't seek the man in that party, or tome of theae people would not have been nominated. A Daugeron Kxperfence. Last Saturday a serious combination ol circumstance threatened lar a time the life and well being of one of the most popular mining men upon the Illinois river. Mr. George Ward, recently from Ore gon City, having purchased a placer mine near Lunatic bar, took a stroll with a view to ascertain the volume of i water wbich could be ditched to the mfiiH, following the streams up on the mountain a considerable distance he ran . unwittingly upon a ferocious she bear, who waa suckling two cubs. Mr. Warl, ! who was accompanied by a friend, was busy making calculation on how many inches of water he w oul 1 be able to ob tain for his mine, and his astonishment can be easily imagined, (perhaps) when ho was confronted by a gaunt she bear gnashing her teeth and endeavoring to lacerate bim with her terrible claws. Having left bis Winchester in camp, the only weapon he had was a small pocket I pietol 34-calibre, which be at once pro-! ceeded to put in action . The rapid fire of the self-acting revolver caused the ; bear to retire badly wounded, as hastily ! as she had sprung up. The only dam age suffered by Mr. Ward was in bis clothing, which was considerably torn by the claws of the bear, the overcoat be ing pretty well torn tip. During the epi sode narrated above, Mr. Ward's friend escaped to a point of vantage from which he could note the results of the conflict, without the least danger of any bodily barm and also shout encouragement to bis friend, occasionally throwing in a bit of advice. After the bear retreated. Mr. Ward coolly pocketed bis pistol and tak ing up a large stone crushed in the heads of the cubs. He was about to retire when bis friend shouted to him to bring one of the cubs along, that it might be offered in evidence w hen the story waa related in the camp. Mr. Ward thought of the numerous "doubting Thomases" that infest every place in life and con cluded that the advice was "timely and good." so he picked up one of the cubs and brought it in, and it has now been sent to the taxidermist to be preserved as a trophy of what a cool brain and steady nerve can do tor a maa in sudden danger, and will prove an interesting or nament for the cabin of tbe victor. Grant's Pass Courier. Coxty, the Connnonwealer. "General" J. S. Coxey, notorious as the leader of Coxey's army, accompanied by his wife, orated at Shively's opera house Tuesday evening, Mr. Coxey took particular pains to keep off tbe grass while in Oregon City. In fact, he was very particular not to allow his feet to touch tlie grass while here, or at least his populist friends were. He did not by any means disport himself with JefTersoniau simplicity during his stay. A covered carriage was placed at his disposal to ride to and from the opera house, which some wag adorned with a placard.' "Keep of the Grass." The populists came in from the country for a distance of 12 miles around, ou horseback, in wagons and on foot, and at least 200 people went away unable to gain admittance. His talk was neither brilliant nor effective. - He told a num ber of funny stories and a few calamity howls, and the populists applauded. At tbe close the contribution box was passed around for funds to pay Coxey's salary. Coxey is not a very attractive rersonnge by any means, but his wife is a very clever looking lady. At any rate, they are having a pleasant visit to Ore gon at the expense if the populists. Tonr Boy Wont Lire a .Mouth. So Mr. Giiman Brown, of 34 Mill St., South Gardner, Mass., was told by the doctors. His son had lung trouble, fol lowing typhoid malaria, and he spent three hundred and seventy-five dollars with doctors, who finally gave him up, saying: "Your boy won't live a month." He tried Dr. King's New Discovery and a few bottles restored him to health and enabled him to go to work a perfectly well man. He says he owes his present health to use of Dr. Kings New Discov ery, and knows it to be the best in the world for lung trouble. Trial bottles free at Charman k Co's. drug store. Houses Made Bright.

And in these Infer days there waa atrife and bickering among the people) living In the land of Clackamas, and the) country thereabout. There was rumor of war in the region in and around Da mascus and tbe country beyond, Mo lalla, Marrpiarn and the country beyond the river Willamette. The Urenites, Weaverites, Coxeyitea and Anarcliite gathered themselves to gether, and said : We are of the tribe, of the Philistines, and we will rise op and smite the children of tlie true God on both cheeks. We will call the Phar isees to our aid and take possession of the court house in the city, called Ore goo City and the ahekels and records therein, and they ahall remain a heri tage for our children forever and ever. Tbey are thrifty ani prosperous, and haye houses and lauds And herds of cat tle and horses aud sheep, accumulated by their toil and industry, while we have talked politics an J left our fence down, and our farms have gone to ruin. While we were talking finances and fiat shekel at the country store, and on the roads that lead up to the Falls City, and were getting rich (in our minds), on the prob able issue of fiat money, oar husband men did not plant tbe seed in the ground and we are in sore distress be cause we will have no crops. Our peo ple are murmuring among themselves, for they have contributed their mites to the campaign fond, and soon oar children will be crying for bread. We wilt arise and gird on our armor anJ prepare for war against the people of the true God. Our prophets and leaders are men mighty in deceit and cunning and are liars from away back. We will arise early in the morning, and do much loud talking for we are mighty in wind, and given to much boasting. We will send to the far East for wise men (in their own eves), who talketh for lucre and are clad in purple and fine linen. They will tell our people how to vote and not tall into tbe hands of the republicans. Thus endeth the first chapter. Electric Hotel Arrivals. B J Slessinger, LeRoy Pratt, New York.
