An Eterr paper says: A Tortland (Ore.) dispatch says that an agent of the 0 linese government has arrived in that city to place an ordr far 50,003,000 feet lumber. Moat n( it is intended for the construction and repair ol govern ment buildings. The agent says indica tions are good for a healthy revival of the lumber trade throughout China and Japan this year and next. This wi'.l be good news for the Pacific coast lumber men, who have more forests and more ess' mills than they have available cus tomers for their output. It is unnatural business tor the Pacific coast mills to forward lumber a thousand or two miles by rail over mountain ranges to Dulnth, Chicazo and other Eastern points, in competition with local mills. Far bet' teris it to eell their lumber in China, Japan, S juth America and Sooth Africa, where Michigan, Wisconsin and Minne sota mills cannot compete. Big Waste of Money. The East Uregonian is in receipt cf a pamphlet entitled "monthly report of the Oregon state weather service, report for 0.-tober, 1S " It is issued by B. S.

It would be no violent presumption that at leat 1030 copies were issued. It is a monthly p lblication, and consists of aa average of over 4) pages. It can cost no less than $100 per month, or about f 1200 per year. The work is done by W. H. Leeds, the Oregon state printer at Salem.

In Wednesday' Demo- chat, in the platform of th Populists, derstand, I mean that part of their platform called "initiative referendum " What is it, anyhow? Referendum looks like a Latin gerund, but it may be a gerundive ora passive periphrastic; and I am not unlike some students that I have known. I am not sure whether it Is a gerund, gerundive or passive peri phrastic. If I make it a gerund, the word initiative must modify it, but an aijective never modifies a gerund in Latin. If, however, by some hook or crook, it acquires tnis pawer when It eomes in contact with a gerund in a popnhstio platform, I am still unable to understand what an "initiative referen dum" in. Initiative, acsording to the dictionaiy, rneani "pertaining to initia tion." The 'initiative referendum,' therefore, must be some popullstic cere- raony pertaining to initiation into the populist party. But if this is the mean- jug of the expression,! do not understand wny it is put in the party platform. If I make refeiendum a gerundive, it must have the construction of an adjective and modify initiative, and initiative must be g noun. As a noun it means "an intro- uacwrj step or acuou. iwibimuuiu . - - t . . .. J formed from raierj, to Dear back-. An initiative referendum, then, means bearing back an introductory step or action. But to what point do the popu lists propose to beer back the mlroduc tory step or action, and what object do I. a a . . .. - 11 they nave tn view, mat is wnai i wouiu like to know T If I msks reierenJui a passive periphrastic, then the initiative must be born back by somebody. But by whom? By the populists? if so, be. fore they do it, I would like to know what introductory step or action they are going to bear back aod how far they propose to carry it T I rhall, therefore, be under ten thousand obligations to some one who Is conversant wau popu- listic lore, if he tell uis the exact mean ing of the expression "initiative referen dum," as used in the party platform, and thus add to the linguistic attainment of an Iunoramcs. The expression should htva been ini tiative and referendum. Oregon's Industries. Mr. J. P. Jones, traveling passenger agent of the Southern Pacific road, ie tarned from a trip over the road vester d, says the Oregonian. Mr. Jones re ports traveling fair and slowly improv ing. He said : 'The smaller towns are still suffering (rm the effects of the panic, and it w II take soms time yet for them to recover. Money and business centraliza in th. largest taans first, then spread ont grad ually to the smaller localities. la the country, I find the farmers contented and encouraged over the condition of the wheat market; but that is nnfo.tooatcly oSset by the condition of the hop mar ket, that industry being ,seemiagly so the decline. "From my observation in traveling over the state, I find that Oregoa potet- tes mineral wealth that will make this a great slate when once developed. Take the mining interests in the southern part of the state: They are most iropor tantin point of wealth an J extent. Some of these i roperliee are betog worked and attracting both men and capital to their several localities. But the pont I want to make ia Uiat the general ignorance of the people on tte question of the min eral wealth of Oregon shows that the newspspers io not give the space to it that the importance of toe subject would justify. A'aka ia working her mineral interests for everything she know s bow ; so is Washington; but Oregon appears to be making of its mineral wealth a secondary consideration. That that is wrong time will prove. A One Club. The "Suicide Club' and tbe ' Associa tion of Fat Men' are well known excres cences of Pari aociety. But a practical denizen of the great metropolis ba brought ont a grand new idea. He pro poses a combination of individual, each following a different occupation, to be termed "The One Club." Evry phase of human activity and industry ie to be represented by one man atd one only. Tbe membership of the club will, ac cordially, cum prise m physician, a law yer, a military man, a senator, a banker, a journalist, a deputy, an actor, etc. Their motto is .'"The One," and each man's duty is to assist bis fellow mem ber when required. For instance, tbe only diamatic author io tbe club sees bis rights trampled un der foot bv a t leatrical manager ; tn de fend himself in the press be has recourse to the one journalist, perhaps later to the one lawyer, and last of all to the only deputy, who airs bis gritvao'-c in the chamber. Aoother instance: The only physician renders medical aid to his fllo club raea without ajy remuneration, and. iu return, he is naturally eutiiled to receive legal advice itralia from the one lawyer, to have free admission to see tbe play of the one dramatic author, and, if need oe, to obtain a loan without inrest from tbe one baokr. f he One Cob already counts mot than fotty members Ex- A r-ontnern magazine prints report from 500 correspondents on tbe financial condition of the farmers of that section. ft is shown that the Southern farmers are carrying lees debt than ever before; that they are producing more provisions for home consumption, rapidly improv ing their farms, and adding to their household comfort. A first-class ticket, harmoniously nominated, will mean entrees for at least part if not all of the democratic ticket in Linn county. The timber ts already in the field for a strong ticket. Voters wanting a careful, economical administration of county affairs will need to vote it. Theodore Durrant, recently one of the most conpicnons men in the 17. S. already is hardly mentioned. He has acother chance for fame. The day he hangs will give him a short notoriety, and then he will lie forgotten in a few weeks . Home one says W. C. Whitney is opposed to free silver. If so he should not be nominated at the coming national convention. A btmctaHst should head the ticket. " J. II. Miti hell is said to be confident of bis reelection as V. S. Senator from Oregon. The Dbmocbat's prediction is that he will be; likewise that Dinger Hermann will bs nominated. Tbe chips will fly in Albany to-morrow Bight. SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS. A week's doings. . Right in San Francisco. , , isound to disagree. Look ahead . Going into the byways. The end of another week finds the Dr. Brown trial being eontinned indefinitely in San Francisco. When a trial is once started in that city.no.'matter how small, it may be depended upon that it will take weeks and weeks to finish it. Mo lasses in the wiuter is nowhere's bealde a San Francisco court. One of the most horrible exploiions in hit tory occurred in Johannesburg, South Africa. The French ministry has' again had confi dence expressed in it. The Cubans are getting ready to stand. Mrs. Cody has been seen all over the United States. TUs first Albany woman in the history of the city, as far as the Dkmocbat knows, was arrested for using abusive languags. Turkiy has not yet been whipped for ninrdering the Armenians.' A populist convention was held in Al bany without a circus. The tailors have been striking in New York City, and FiUsimmons knocked out Maher so quick'y that he hardly knew what as up. He can come very close to treating Corbett in the same way. Three robbers entered a San Francisco bank io broad daylight, stood up the cashier and book-keeper, secured $3000 and escaped. San Francisco Is in a bad way when it permits Mich things. The guesning during the week at the time it wilt take to chop in two a fifteen inch log is a good illustration of the tact that men will disagree, and you can't make them agree. They aren't built that way, and that is the long and the shoit of it. There are men who want you to agree with them in every detail, and it yon do not yen are a dotenhead or something rise juot as bad. When a person "knows" a thing that is debata ble then ont. Just as likelv an not be does not. Every man has a right to hisopinluu, and exactly, as much to say he thinks a fiftireu inch log can be cut in 2 minutes a the man who knows it will take over 7, or in any other field of disputation. A man is doing a very just thing when he makes provision for his family after his death. How he shall do it is a per sonal matter that should be settled in a practical way by hit on judgment. The man djing this thinking lus jus'. rad an item about bow "the Salvation Army ami others run on that plan go to the byways and bid aood and bad to come to the least, as renmre J by the Scriptures, while the orthodox clergy practically say: come to our churches and receive th bread of life, but slay away ifyoa choose and be damned." There is at leat something in the idea to think about, and the DsxocaaT gives it w.tbout any of its own thoughts at this lime. Inside of Two Year. Artbnr B. Doming an old resident of Oakland Cel., well known in rehgious circles, has announced that the world i coming to an end within two yeara lie declares ibat the story was confided to him by the Lord aftr be had faUd even days and nights. A vision a,v peared to him oo tbe night of the seventh day, so he says, and he wascsra miMioned to wain the people to prepare for the end Mr. Iteming claims to i the direct representative cf tbe Lord, and has on dertakeo the task to warn the people of the Pacific Coast that the time is near at band for them to tender an account. Wherever be can get a hearing bs make known the result of bis fast and tells of the strange revelalioo that rarne to him in the night lie says that be saw a terrible baUle and' onl ol the tumu'.t cauie an acgei who told him tha story of wbat ia to happen. Mr. Deming asserts that this is not the first time that matters t f moment bave bn tevealrd to him ia vie:oo. In fact, when he desires to he brought into closer cemtncnkt;oa w ith the other world hebtin from food. On February 8th Demtng became im bued m'.lU tbe idea that dread calamities were about to overwhelci the human race. fs troub'ed was he that te de termined to seek further liht, which be hoped to obtain by prayer and fasting. 9e resolved to partake of no f xxl for seven day. luring that period net a particle of nourishment of any kind pneeed bis lips, an J he patiently watted for the vision which to his mind was to be of such dread coerequenre to the world. On the Stlb day the old roau nearly give up in den air A great hunger cmie upon lii io . ami he was eore'y tinptfd to abandon the se.f-impoed cnii-inx on ( tha fieh abd break his agon aiiu ia't. But he bravely put aside the temptation. The sixth d ly came, and (tilt the tnys tic veil of the fuiuie was not rent amn Irr. No vi.ioo rami to the fisting man, who f It that he was soon to be the mes senger of porteotious tidings to his fel low beings. His stiengtn was slipping from him and still the message he so yearned frr was denied him. Wi:h the weakness of the flesh there came a spiritual exalta tion which soon cmi.'J the starving man to forget 'his physical toMure in the glory of radiant scenes which feasted his soul. He seemed to be transported from the narroar confines of this earth and brought nearer to tbe object of his desire. Friends came to him, even as to Job of old, and, some In pity, others in scorn, offered him deheacls to tempt him from his fast. Again and again he resisted, putting the food aside as coming from the devil; and then came the seventh day. That night the message was revealed in a vision. What seemed to be a bat tle in which mighty hosts were contend ing convulsed the heavens. Suddenly an angel emerged frcm the terrifying scene and stood before the mortal who had eodured such suffering for those ae-Ven days. "The end of the world is at hand," was the dreadful warning spoken bv the angel, who then vaoie'ael. Not content with the revelation just made to him, Deming purposes t j fast for eight days, as he is eager to be in a position to furnish more definite infor mation as to the exact date of the des truction of the world. "People call me a crank and calamity. bowler," said Dcmiog, "but I have re ceived a direct message from the Lord and I warn the people to prepare for the end of the world. To fast for seven days and nights is not a pleasant task, but I have just accomplished it with good re- u.. vs ih sevenm nigni me vision came and I was told that the end of the J ...14- r .i - .. ... . . world would come in two years. "I want to give the people waruing.for I feel that I have been commissioned to spread the news and tell the people with the voice of one having authority that the Lord still reigns and is soon coming." An exchange says : Don't ask an edi tor to suppress an item of news; some other paper will get it any way. The next day something will happen to your neighbor aod if he asks to have it sup pressed jou will be fie first one to jump on the editor for not ' during to say that his soul was his own." Take your med icine when the news luppms to fall your way, tor really you have no more claim on the paper than your neighbor. Nearly every day the eJitor is called on for roasts and several other kinds of cookery for the benefli of thfs and that one, and yet thoie who request this would no more think of writing what they want the editor to write and assume the responsibility for it, than they would attempt to flv. Some men who never touch an ase at home know the most about themaaay from home "Young man, you should ncvi-r go to bed owing any man a cent." "bere would I sleep, fatber?" Detroit News.
