If you wish to rote you must attend to this important matter. Tub legislature of Montana, sent democrat, Clark, to the senate of the United States. There is a greater bribery scandal in connection with it than there has ever been in the history of the country. Tin third party organization In the senate has gone to pieces. Senator Tet- tigrew, who is fighting with the desper ation of despair, Senator Allen of Ne braska, who has not had time to arrange himself since his appointment In place of the late Senator II ay ward, and Sena tor Teller, are about the only members left. The destructive force that has been operating upon the third party combination is to be found in the great prosperity of the country. The develop nient of cotton manufacturing at the South and temptation offered by the rich Oriental markets opened by the administration, has led away Senator Butler of North Carolina; Senator Kyle has gone over, horse, foot and dragoons, and Senators Stewart and Jones of Nevada have pledged themselves to vote with the republicans on all questions except those of finance. The strong feeling on the Pacific coast in favor of the administration's course in the Philip pines has had great influence on these latter gentlemen. This division in popu listic and silver ranks is merely a sign of the still more striking split in the de mocracy. Senators Morgan of Alabama, Sulivan of Mississippi, and McLaurin of South Carolina, are all opposed to their party on the question of expansion, most of them frankly so on the ground that trade expansion will benefit their Alike Kosendorf, of Independence, commits suicide at linker City. The steamer Elm Branch is reported disabled oil the Columbia. Sunday January 14. Volunteer troops leave England lor South Africa. The British minister is on the verge of a collapHe. A flood at Kendrick Idaho does great damage and three lives are lost. There has been some fighting of late in Cebu. Portland real estate is looking up. Ft. Canby is to be remodeled. constituents. Tun democrats are trying hard to get Bryan to withdraw and it looks as if pressure would be nsea to get him out of the way. Many leading democrats have advised him to give way to some other man. They claim that he is kill ing the party. It is with satisfaction that we report that the bouse committee has ordered a favorable report on the Canal bill. The country is in earnest about this bill and it would have been passed at the last session except for opposition of the rail roads. The bill is the most important to the coast of aiiy before congress. Now that England has her hands full in Africa, Russia is strengthening her self in China and making demands on the latter that cannot be met. France in the south is pursuing about the same tactics. England will be compelled to take a firm stand in China or her inter ests will suffer greatly . Tub state tax levy is 6.3 mills an in crease from last year from 5.7 mills. The total valuation of the state has fallen about 13 millions from last year while the valuation of Clackamas county has risen. This will make some material difference with the state tax. Multno mah county will pay about $45,000 less state tax this year than last on account of the lowering of the assessment in that cjunty. There can never be an equal assessment in the state until there is an able and conscientious state board of ejuaiization that will Bee that a proper valuation is made in each county. Un til that time the assessor, will have to see that his county is kept on an eqnal footing with the others or we have to pay more than we should of the state tax. The populists and democrats havo agreed on a plan that they think will give them the offices. The leaders in both these parties know that there are many members of each party that belong to that parly because of some principle advocated. If it were not for these principles these men would be in the republican party probably. Now to hold this class of voters they will be told by the leaders that the party is to be preserved with all its principles. Then there are the strikers that want the loaves and fishes. Tbey know that they are in a minority and care for no princi ples to long as they can get the offices. These latter have brought around the union for what there is in it. Tbey think because they can unite the leaders they will take the parly but that has been tried and will not work. The majority of the members of both these parties are honest and will not he dragged atound to suit some office holders. They believe in certain princi ples and will stay by them and not fol low off any office-seeking crowd. What is the cause that unites these two parties? Can any be found except that the self-constituted leaders want the office? At the last election it was union and that was not such a success as to be tried again. This time it is to be an independent ( ?) ticket, The crowd steer ing this is too well known. It cannot win in this county. Monday January 15.

The various "reform forces" have de cided to "fuse" up in Clackamas county, anl, if possible to agree on a division of t ie offices, or rather the nominations, to nominate a combination ticket with which to try to beat the republicans. These reformers believe in everything, politically, under the sun, except, possi bly, gold; and they really believe in that but don't know it, or won't acknowledge it. Everything from anarchy to social-i-ira, from the single tax to free home steads of all real estate, is represented among them. Scarcely any two of them c in agree on aDy two or more political principlesor on any political policy ; but they are "agin" tbe republicanjmrty and want the offices. There is need enough of Gov.
