Reading matter is not scarce enough for such prices. Tbe republicans carried Kentucky by the help cf populists and A P A e. It was not a straight political fight between the two old parties. The two Roeeburg papers are not hav ing things their own way in their pen pugilism- The two Pendleton psjera are up in arms and everlastingly making tha fnr fly. Eugene Deb is about to start out on a lectnting tour. It will prove a great revelation to him and be an experience he will not forget, lie should begin though when walking ia better. Bill Kya is undoubtedly a bigger liar than Eli Perkins. He declares that be was not rotten egged, whereas the asso ciatcd press, the great truth teller, says he was. There wilt be some live contests in the citv election in the convention. Sever al are batching. An exchange says that with all tbe blunders boys make it never knew one to start for school on Saturday morning. Paderewaki, the noted pianist, received tt largest sum paid to any single per former for a nights work in New York City. He received 5,6j0 for a few hours' pleasant work recently. Because of bis activity in opposing tbe proposed Corbett- Fiusimmons fight, Rev. J. C. Schofield, ofDalUia, Tex., was forced to resign- His attitude was no satisfactory to tbe business men in bis congregation. In a school district in Kentucky aix school maims have married during their engagement as teachers in the past tbree years. Tbe last one employed had to sign a contract to forfeit all her pay if she married before the term expired. Energy and brains can do a good deal ometimes. Our correspondents ac count oi the tnocese of Mr. Daniel Best, a former resident of Albany is to tbe poiut and now hit daughter is to marry a rich banker of San Francisco, abich adds to the interest in tbe matter. John B. Bannon, of Yonngstown, O., recently fonnd pasted on a Georgia mel on the name of Miss Agnea Hillman, Benevclence, Ga. He at one wrote to the yonng lady. Aa the result of the correspondence the couple are engaged. Mr. Bannon will visit tbe Atlanta Expo sition and may return with a Southern bride. Perhaps Mike De Yonng wonld like to be Vice President. That may be a reason why he ia rustling so lively for tbe national republican convention at San Francisco. Tbe Examiner, though is doing more rustling than anybody. That ia business. Lverything nowadays seems to be a stepping stone to the stage. Even Grandpa Anson, of the Chicago b. C- has begun acting. The DsuocaaT editor remembers seeing Anson nearly twenty years ago, and be was no kid then, so be will not have long to serve, a pleasing feature of the matter. Tbe Salem Journal is going for Rev. Grannie, of that city .because be said the great sin of Eden wsa Inst, whereas tbe Journal declares it was ambitioo, and quotes Milton very freely to prove tbe fact. According to the Journal's version of the address delivered before tbe Y M. C. A. Mr. Grannie has a poor opin ion of married people. One strong republican city in tbe east did a good job in electing a democrat to office on Nov. 5. Rochester, X. Y. in electing Judge Geo. E. Warner, an old time personal friend of tbe editor of tbe Dimocbat, did an eminently proper thing. A man of clean record and great individuality, Rochester's 150.000 peo ple bave a man at their head who will permit no jobs and steals. 1. The kindergarten develops the threefold nature of tbe child. 2 Its object is the formation of char acter by means of an harmonious devel opment of body, mind, and soul. 3. This is accomplished by means of play, childlike work, and constant exer cise in right doing. 4. The kindergarten recognizes snd seeks to develop the individuality of each child. . 6.- It furnishes bim with the compan ionship of bis equals, through whom be gets bis first lessons in citizenship. 0. It affords the best transition from home to school life . , . 7. It provides the best preparation for school life. ' 8.

Board of Trade, who has a rich red mustache but nj hair cn bis bead, has offered 2,000 to any one who can grow on his barren top a shaggy growth of crimson hne. The Chicago man is not inclined to split hairs as to just hew it shall be done. Dazzled by tbe munificence of the offer, and anxious to contribute something to science, a New York specialist has under taken the job. Like the man in Conan Doyle'r story of the - "Red-Headed League," be has begun. aJvertielng for red beaded men. ile' offers $500 to the man who is willing to shed bis scalp and allow it to be grafted on the bead of the Chicago board of trade man.- Here's an opportunity for men who have a surplus crop of fiery birsu'e.

C X , The Atlanta Exposition. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 10, 1805. It is a fairyland t" So spoke an old timer, world-traveled, blase and critical, familiar with the brilliant boulevards of Paris, and satiated with the far famed illuminations of Baden Baden. All this was in bis mind when he turned short, threw down his cigar, and broke off an earnest business talk to gase spellbound upon the unmatched loveliness of Pied mont Park. "I have seen Paris in 'SO, and the World's Fair, and the Centennial, but this beats them all." It was more than fairyland. Titania's sprites could plant a pearl in every cow slip s ear, but it was a greater Titania who caught ten thousand scintilling stars and brought them to earth as orna ments for architecture. The common opinion of all who see it is that the decorative ligbtiog at this Exposition has never been approached. It is a work of art done in fire, and it should make Luther Stieringer immortal as an artist. If tbe jury of awards did not pass npon this pictnre, they left out the greatest and best of all. It was Michael Angelo who combined art with architecture, and was great in both, and it is Stieringer who unites ait with ar chitecture, and calls down fire from heaven to glorify their nn'.on. Tbe electric fountain, another tri umph of this Exposition, is also the work of the great fire artist. Here again a new fairyland is opened. Tbe wheat sheaves might be the ones Joseph dreamt of, for somehow they have got mix.ed with the coat of many colors. First there is the golden grain, tall and wav ing, and bending under its bearded load as at harvest, then tbe field is turned to green, as if Joeepb'a bad brothers bad taken part in tbe dream, then there comes a dull red as of bloody thoughts. and then a violet is succeeded by mother- of-pearl, aa if dreams were fading into morning ! Take the Woman's Anoex as a point of interest. There is the Indian chief with a garment of seven hundred and fitly elk's teeth and a necklace of terrapin's claws, and nzb ! there is tl.e aame scoundrel with a trophy of a hundred human scalps. drieJ and buns to his wampum ! Tbe pictnre which attracts the most attention in the Art Gallery, ia Hoven den's "Breaking cf Home Ties." It is a famous pictnre, great in itself, but par ticular interest attaches to it because ol the recent heroic death of the paint er. Hovenden lost bis life a few weeks ago trying to snatch a child ont of tbe way of a locomotive. The child escaped bnt Hovenden lost his balance and fell under tbe engine where he suffered horrible death. We bave all hear J of the eradle of Democracy, bnt few bave sten it. The original cradle which rocked Thomas Jsflerson, is on exhibition ia the Forest ry building, and tbe United States Gov ernment vouches lor the authenticity of the story. Yon can see tbe place ia the side where tbe infant statesman eat Lit teeth, and on one corner he chipped off a big lot of wood where his wisdom tooth came through. Tne Midway is one eloogated and va riegated circus with tbe noisy hurly- burly of the merry -go-roond and the spielers. A eensalional feature is the skirt dance in the lion's cage, which Mr. Hoffbeimer, successor to Mr. ilagen- beck, has pnt on. Tbe lions get excited over the skirt dance and try to catch tbe step, to tbe keepers bave to be vigilant "Shooting the Chutes" is great sport. Tbe Phoenix Wheel takes yon skyward for a bud's eve view of tbe Exposition, and the Old Plantation entertains you with negro minstrelsy by real negroes. The Exposition is an asnnred snccees. The finaccial problem baa been solved, and the great enterprise moves on grand ly to its culmination. The people of Atlanta have achieved results never equaled, and the only candidate for sym pathy is tbe person who does not see this wonderfn! exbibil'on, in many respects, tbe most remarksj.de tbe world has ever seen. The failure of Williams A England tank, or brokerage honse at Salem, and the State Insurance Company, ia not surprising. It casts no reflection on Sa lem. Tbe problem as understood by tbe DsKoct at is a plain on . Tbe Sute did big business and took notes in payment of premiums. WHiams A England hand led tbe notes. Many of tbe notes were not paid, and some have become out lawed. Collapse was bound to follow. Tbe deposits of tbe bank are given as $120,000. As a matter of fact outside of the affairs of the Stale Iosurance Com pany they are probably not over $25,000. It has become manifest that a local in surauce company can't keep op. The Sute ia entitled to credit for doing it better than any other company in tbe northwest. Debt is a canker worm. Tacotna is being gnawed In a lively manner; bat not Tacotna alone; many other towns are in hot water. In business men must borrow money. That is a part of all kinds of commerce ; few merchants buy for cash, and few farmers pay all down for a farm. 1'hs tronbie lies in doing too much, going to fast, in otber words, "cntting off more than can be chewed.'' The treasury report of changes in cir culation during October is eloquent of widespread and general business im provement. There was a net gain ot $13, 265,897 in circulation, net counting national bank notes, which are increased by $1 025,099, making a total gain in paper circulation of 114,301,700. There was also an increise of $3,207,505 in the circulation af standard silver dollars, but this was offset by the cancellation of 8berman notes and represented only a demand for small money. Ex. The Peqdletou Tribune has now gotten down to personalities and is trying to prove the editor of the Salem Journal an Irishman, calling him 0, Iiofer. Noth ing out of to 3 way in being an Irishman, if you are honest snd pay your debts. Another prize fighter challenges tbe world. He ought to be snuffed nut be fore he gets to blazing too much, Th e country has just gone through a war of words and columns of descriptive rot and bloeks of scenes, and much more of the stuff will cause the common people to rise up sod quell the diaturbance. According to Prof. Barnard, there is no ground for the supposition tbat the rings of Wat urn are closing upon tbe planet, as bis observations show tbat no changes have taken place since tbe first system atic measures were msde. ; This is the last day on which Chinese pheasants can be sold, and they can only be killed until Dee.

The readers of this column this Satur daynlght will pleBss prepare themselves for a blue subject. Some time sgo tbe Dkmockat published what purported to be the "blue laws of Connecticut." We have always supposed they were in real ity at one time the laws of that com monwealth. We are completely satis fled this Saturday night of a melancholy Novemberjjday, that they never existed at ail as the laws of Connecticut. In fact, tbey are merely fiction, emanating from tbe brain of one Sum Peters, who wrote a general history of Connecticut over a hundred years ago, after return ing to England from the United States. Peters was a tory refugee in England during the revolution, and in order to land well with those fighting the Unit ed Slates, 'made np the whole blue law business, hardly one being founded up on facts-CXt the time it was not consid ered worth refutation in the U. S ; bnt it was allowed to stand, until like many such things, it began to be accepted as a tact and even a part of history. Now, whenever it is sought to enforce a strict law like that of a decent observance of Sunday it is referred to as a return to tbe blue laws of Connecticut. There were undoubtedly strict laws in the early Puritan days of New England; but there is no question that the so called blue laws were mere fabrication, spite work. At tbe very time tbeie were laws in England itself very Puritanic, a sample being one that made absence from church punished by imprisonment and even death, eating meat on Friday was punishable b; imprisoamentlaws agaiost witcbcralt, etc. In Virginia, far away from the Puritans of New England a law made swearing punishable by tbe throat ing of a bodkin through tbe tongue, and npon a third offense by death ; one law compelled every man to attend church twice on Sunday, a failure being pnmsb aote by fine, whipping or for tbe third offense by death ; another law made the killing of a neighbor's bog punishable by death, and laws regulating wearing apparel. Ia New York state there were as narrow laws. So also Connecticut bad narrow laws in the spirit of those days; bnt not tbe ridiculous so called blue laws, tbe fabrications of a spiteful tory. Th DaktocatT is glad to be able this Saturday night to put its readers on the right track in this matter. In connec tion with tbe subject it may be suggest ed that laws are made for enforcement, and should either be enforced or taken from tbe books. During the week tbe air has been fall of talk about the approaching city elec tion. There is enough in the air to in dicate several live coo testa, one in the republican convention over recorder, one over marshal in the election, which will undoubtedly be between the present official, C O. Let, and ex-post master Thos. Monteitb : one over mayor, the indications are now, bet vein the pres ent mayor and ex-Cooncilmso C. G. Borkbart, and probably ooe in each ward over couociimen. Therefore, i! there ia not a veiy fail vote it ill not be betaose of a lack ot interest. Here is an episode from real life wLicb cleaily Jcmooatrs'.ts the oosmopolitian character of the American metropolis An Italian tent an American lad to 1 Chinaman for bis laundry. The Ameri can gave tl.e Chinaman a filty-ceot pieci. John bit 00 Hand said: Coun terfeit, Yon rettee in Uoobie. Me keepee," and put it, in bis pocket. The Italian then called and started to give the Chinaman a beating. A Greek Uft bis OTSter stand to act as peacemaker. Tbe Italian drew a razor, -and tbe Greek shied a bottle of cayenne pepper at him, which struck a Hebrew . A negro who was passing shouted, and an Irishman in the uniform of a policeman arrested tbe fighting congress of nations and took them lo court, which was presided over by a German jnstice. J. B. Eidy still bails frtm Pendleton. He lives in Portland and "hails" from Pendleton for political reasons. Jim Eddy ia in politics because it pays. Tbe people support him the same as if be drew a pension. Men supported in this wsy are largely responsible for hard times. They ar always putting their bands ia the peoples flour barrels and clothes chests without ever doing any thing to replace what they take ont. Pendleton E. O. If there is any one in Oregon who does as little for tbe pay re ceived as Eddy we would like t i gaze upon bim as a cariosity. wup ni tne Milwaukee bt!s uses a busbel of potatoes a yea?, one at a time, for pen wipers on the detk in the office I" . - . . . every morning a potato as big as an apple is pnt in a compartment of tbe pen box, and after 24 hours the potato ia removed and another is pot in. Pens in pen holders are stuck into tie potato, a obii mi-n at a time, giving it ttie ap pearance of a porcupine. It ia claimed by thoe who pretend to know all about potatoes and pens that a potato pen wiper is the best preservative against rust and mild-i that can be seemed for tl.ep-ns. Kate Field ssjs that'wnire she an In England she was asked in good fith whether the language taught in the pub lic schools of the United Ststes was Eng lish or American. '"Ob, Araenran,' I replied," says Miss Field. "English is a dead language. Itiscnly learned by niversity men who go in for classics." An exchang remarks that a graphic Idea ot the immense size ot Silieria may be gleaned from the follow'ng compar lsoa: All of the States, kingdoms, principalities, empires, etc., of Europe (except Russia), and all ot the United States, including Alaska, could bs placed side by side in Liberia, and yet bnt lit tle more than cover that immense coun try. Well, any way, the democrat didn't get snowed under anywhere as badly as the populists in Mississippi. Even with the assistance of republicans, tbe pops couldn't carry a single county in the state. Two years ago they elected 25 men to the legislature. Last Tuesday every one of their candidates was de feated St. Louis Republic. All indications sgree that less than ten miles below ns a red heat is attained and within twenty a , white heat. Ten miles above us we have the pitiless cold, far below zero, of interplanetary space. To what a narrow sone ot delicately- balanced temperature ia life confined. It fakes good financiering to run a city government nowadays. The members ol a city council should be good busluess men. The Journal Is boasting about tbe rustling , qualities of the Salem bog. Why not put his snout under that cream ty proposition. MISFITS. A" quack doctor is said to be doing Linn countv and Clirino- nnnnla Vtu a plaster on the back and bringing all tne ills of the body out by the sore. That beats boils. An exchange says Dr. J. L. Hill will bo nominated by the Peoples rrty for congress. The Dr. would have more fun runuing for congress than any man in Oregon. . The Beethoven Organ Co., of Wash ington, N.

Encourage the vouncr men to r.lav font-' ball. It will help make men of them. Bye-and-bye they may go to work for a living, and a vigorous constitution is a nice thing to have lavinir around handv. Salem Journal. People don't get vig- ous constitutions from overexertion, but from Emersonian exercise. A man is lucky if he has much of a constitution left after one of the fights. The DeyocBAr a few days ago predict ed that in the foottall game tomorrow at Portland between Portland and the State University elevens, Portland would win. The Guaid says: "Bro. Nutting, ?ou will be badly footed when vou hear rom the result st Portland." The Dem oot at hopes it will be fooled, for it mott certainly desires to see the U. O.'s win ; bat it was baiting its prediction on its judgment, which bus not changed. A'f-alem paper has been charging that the boys at tbe Indian school were being starved, llie manner in wbicli. tnev were starved is shown from tbe fact that during the months of June, July and August they consumed tbe following things : 15,?$ pounds of meat. 17,850 pounds 01 nour, l.sio pounds 01 sugar. 4.410 pounds of beans. 125 pounds of tea. lib pounds of coffee, 36 bushels of pota toes, 1,WJ pounds ol cabbage, l,ro8 pounds ot carrot. 400 pounds ot peas. Zo pounds of pears, 307 pounds of turnip. 04 pounds dried peaches, 340 pounds dried prunes, and 913 pounds of rice. Clinton R.
