Hon Ben Hayden wrote the following
letter to Representative T J Lee. U is
interesting because written by Ben:
'Hon T J Lee. Dear Sir : Tour con
stituents cordially, endorse your course
in the legislature up to date and confi
dently rely on your good judgment to
direct you in the future. We regard the
present tangle as a factional fight among
the republicans. Let them fight to a
finish. Yon have not been called upon
to arbitrate the matter, and l would
never volunteer to Dart other men's
dogs for fear of being bit. Hands off.
It is dangerous to interfere with your
neighbor's domestic troubles. Pay no
attention to anything lobbyists and
strikers may say. Rest assured the
democracy is with you. We bad better
have no legislature than such an one as
we have bad for several years past'
Tbe following trom the Portland
Tradesman is worthy of consideration :
'The man who is looking for the worst
of it usually eets it." This is an old
ying and a true one. Conversely, tke
man who is looking Ur the best oi a
thing usually finds it, if it is to be found,
and certainly only by sucn an attitude
can success be achieved. This vital dif
ference in tbe attitude taken by people
is nowhere more plainly seen than in
mercantile life, and this difference in the
moral qnality of the people, or rather in
their philosophy and temperaments, ac
counts for lunch of success or failure
There are merchants who are always
looking on tbe gloomy side of things,
alaars . fearing competition, always
ready to mate a cnt price, whether it is
aeked for or not, to bead off some im
aginary difficulty; while there are others
who, looking on the bright side of trade,
with faith in themselves, the goods they
handle and, in tbe long run, the stable
character of tneir business. Tbey are
oa the direct road to success. There
may be setbacks, there may be occasion
al reverses, bnt this class of people are
the ones who succeed il any do.
Tbe following cigarette bill was intro
duced by request by Senator Johnson
"Section ! It snail hereafter be un
lawful in this state to manufacture, or
cause to b manufactured, or to sell,
barter, trade, or in any manner furnish
or dispose of, or to to have in possession
for tbe purpose of sale, cigarette, cigar
ette tobacco. or cicarette paper in any
form in the state of Oregon.
"Section 2. Any person violating any
fthe provisions of this act shall be
deemed guilty ?f a misdemeanor, and
jpon conviction thereof sha'.l be punish
ed by a fine of not less than f 100, nor
more than t-"OJ.
"Section 3. Justice of the peace shall
have concurrent jurisdiction with the
circuit courts for ail offenses arising os
ier this cat." The bill carries an emer
gency clause, which an exchange says
will mean its defeat, as nine ont of ten
oil Is with emergency clauses fail to pass.
The bill though is good enough one. Tbe
cigarette cannot be set down on too
bard.
The Trontdale Champion aaya: "The
Oregon Pottery Company made an as
signment in Portland oi Wednesday,
much to the surprise of a number of peo
pie in Trontdale, wbo had not been paid
(or the last lot of work they did for the
com.-any in shipping clay from here.
Mr V p Pel ton contracted with tbe com
pany to let it take clay from bis place,
and for two weeks the company was very
active in getting out a large quantity ol
clay, it is almost unnecessary to say
that Mr Pelton bas not been paid.neither
have the men tbe company employed to
haul and move ir. Some of the members
of the Oregon Pottery Company were ont
before election talking loudly about con
fidence and what tbey were going to do
if McKinley got in by way of employing
ihonsands of men. McKinley got elec
ted, the pottery company has busted aad
now a number of tho-e who shouted con
fidence with them thick the confidence
trick has been bafly played on them a
kind of bunco confidence."
Beginning with tbe first day of the
present year, the municipality of Glas
gow, Scotland, crated to levy laxes on
its citizens for maintenance ol tbe local
government a condition of aflairs which
is, we believe, without a parallel in an
cient history or modern history. The
reason for this extraordinary step is that
the city obtains sufficient revenue from
the public works, which are all, or near
ly all, owned, controlled, and operated
by the municipality. The street rail
ways, or tramways as tbey are termed
there, have for two years been a source
ol profit. Fares were fixed, on tbe in
auguration of city control, at one, two,
three or tour cents, according to tbe dis
tance traveled. During tbe first eleven
months of municipal administration
(July 1, 1S94, to June 1, 1805), 67,046,610
passengers were carried at an average
fare of les than two r-ot. Thirty-nine
percent ol the fares were only one cent,
and et tbe roads made a handsome
profit. For the second year they show
a net profit of more than 8200,000, after
allowing for interest, taxes and depreci
ation. These figures are certainly an
indication that like results are possible
by similar means in the large cities of
America. Ex.
The followingltrom the Pendleton E O
is published as a sample of sarcasm,
without the Dkxocbat'b endorsement.
for we know nothing about the Salem
hotel : "From all accounts the Salem ho
tel is as bad as ever and legislation is as
correspondingly had, or worse this year
than ever before. Brains that are led
from consumption of poor ana oadiy
cooked food ebonld not be expected to
furnish a good product. Thought is just
as much the essence it feeds on as any
thing else in the world of matter. Tbe
Salem hotel Is responsible for the legis
lation the people receive from Salem.
Responsible for tho "greed" of "the Sa
lem hog" and the selfishness and atnb
bornness of the rival politicians who are
trying to "work" themselves Into the
United Htutes senate against the people's
will. Hthe capital ol Oregon was at
Portland instead of 8aiem, legislation
would greatly improve to the people's
benefit. The hotels at Portland are in
the nature of things better than those
that Salem can afford.
tn t!xty years Baltimore has not bad

Several llbany men learned yesterday

The usual bill protidicg for a county

"nis Benson bouse is being badly
managed. The members seem to go at
every thing in a wrong way.
The Washington deadlock continues.
One thing is thoroughly demonstrated.
and that is that Senator Squire is en
tirely out of the race.
A Pittsburg paper says so much spit
ting is done in that city an S might well
be put at the beginning of the name o!
the city.
An exchange says that Harris, tbe new
Kansas senator who will succeed Pfeffer,
has no whiskers for the political breeses
to blow through.
Tbe New York World lias been de
manding three E's, retrenchment, reve
nue and rest from the government. It is
getting none of them .
A law should be passed prohibiting
the appointment as clerk in the state
legislature of any relative of any mem
ber within the filth degree.
Two clerks to a senator and nothing
for them to do. A sample of senatorial
economy, Tbe bouse would probably
be just as extravagant if in session.
An English Lord recently declared in
parliament that "the wandering ebild
will yet come back to its mother," re
ferring to tbe United States. Never,
though tbe people do seem to hsve been
voting (hat way recently.
The constitution undoubtedly says
absent members of the legislature can
be compelled to attend; but no one
knows how to go at it. Tbe Benson
crowd particularly pat their feet in their
months every time they open them.
Tbe scheme of Mitchell is undoubtedly
to bold the Benson house together until
next Tuesday, when tome kind of a Joint
session will be held and the farsical form
of a senatorial election had, believing
that the U. S. senate will t-elp him ont
of bis dilemma
Representative Micbell of Tbe Dalles,
an old newspaper man, should put a "I"
in his name, as all the newspapers insist
on spelling it "Mitchell" and every com
positor knows that is tbe way it ought
to be. The name bas the accent oa the
last syllable.
It loots very much as if there was
something in the scheme of Senator
Sherman, nnder which tbe government
of the United States itself will build the
Nicaraocuacaaal and receive tbe bene
fit. The present bill nnder which f 100,
000,000 would be donated to a private
company is nndoubtedly doomed.
The Oregonian says the Benson house
is breakiog up. The Statesman tries to
convey tbe Idea il ie a power and is in
for keeps. Io this instance the Demo
crat can agree with the Oregonian. It
cannot do anything else than break up,
far it is illegally organised aod uncondi
tional. Regaid!eaof one's opinion on
tbe general situation, the house should
be organized riirh: or not at all.
A West v irginia paper that comet to
ihe Dan oca T office says : Cleveland is
a remarkable man. He has shown him
self capable of predicting not only tbe
policy of his own partv but tbe l.ne of
action to be pursued by the opposite
party as well. lie set the pace which
caused tbe country to engage in bring
ing about a great tariff reform. Then
he was leader of bis own party. Only a
few years later he again played his cards
bnt with the opposite party and won.
Now in tbe (ace of the whole country he
bas his own ideas about Cuba, and as il
by hypnotism, tbe leaders in tbe nest
administration are fast being drawn tc
his way of thinking. Certainly, this
mauHs a marvel it not a conjurer !
Tbe following from the Pendleton E.
O., is about a fallen man, well told:
There are hundreds of acquaintances of
Ueo B Lash in Pendleton who carry an
increased burden in their hearts since
the expose in bis affsirs. Tbey sympa
thize with his family and sincerely wish
It were in their power to render fitting
assistance in this their hour of need It
is not true that his former frieod hare
forgotten bim. They are simply silent
in tbeir pity, recognizing that the time
to render bim assistance has passed.
Not one of his real friends suspected his
crime until tbe expose came. Had be
spoken "the truth" before 1897 wss
ushered in, he conld have obtained all
the help necessary to set him in tbe
straight and narrow way aad aaved him
and his family the calamity that has to
suddenly hafalien them. No one ex
cuses him for his crime, fie was teck
lest in itt perpetration and silent nnder
tbe terrible strain that followed its per
formance. So far as tbe penalty falls
opon him, no one complains. It is de
served. He must feel so himself. Bnt
it falls upon others, tails opon those
deartohim, upon the whole ol society,
and the pain and injury inflicted cannot
be alleviated or met by any thing that
human hands may do.
(The following is given the Dkmockat
by ac Englishman to show that the En
glish nimrods can shoot as well as Amer
icans: "The shooting record of tbe
champion British game shot, Earl de
Gray has been compiled. Between 1867
and 1S95 his total bag was 316,697 head
of game, his average for this time being
about 10.000 bead each year. In 1893 he
readied tbe amazing total of 19,135, ol
which 8732 were partridges, 6760 pheas
ants, 2611 grouse, 837 bares, 914 ratiits
aod nearly 300 various. Of the total oi
316,609, there were 111,199 pheasants,
83,401 partridges, 47,488 grouse, 26,747
rabbits, 2d,417 hares, 2735 snipe, 2677

180 deer, 97 pigs, 91 black game, 45 cap

SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS
The past week has seen as mean, disa
greeable weather as it is possible to ex
perience in Oregon, enow, cold, getting
as low as 22 degrees above sero, slippery.
sleety, nasty. Also rainy, but the rain
is all right; we are webbed for it, where
as we are not furred for suow, nor shod
for ice. A fish doetn't enjoy swimming
on land, a cat can't bear the water, and
an Oregonlan who is used to mild weath
er doesn't relish anything that l "old.
Some one said something about doing
something for those around us and lees
for ourselves. That is a good idea and
tbe secret of genuine happiness. Theory
is one thing though, and practice anoth
er.
A train beid up br bad men, Lungry,
lazy men, wanting something without
sweating for it. Why so many holdups
standnps and knock downs, so many all
ovei the U. . 8. that tue sale of small
arms is said to have more than doubled.
Hard times get tbe credit. Tbe troth is
there is a class of men ready and willing
to take advantage of tbe times as an ex
cuse for their lawlessness. They should
be met without mercy. The public
safty demands it.
The legislature fiasco continues.
Tbe Cuban war wiggles filibuste:ingly
along.
Nevada, little insignificant Nevada,
run down at tbe heels, out at the elbow,
degenerated, turned backward, d-erted,
bas passed a law permitting pnxe fight
ing for a license of $3503. There ought
to be some wsy for taking su;h little
Sales out of tbe government. A state ;
gets pretty small that will do that, not!
so much because it permits the prize
fighting, for all tbe states nearly counte
nance it in disguise, bnt because of get
ting down t? it for revenue far a partic
ular case related everywhere else in the
United States.

j The DraocxAT has received a pamphlet
containing aitj pages, with the govern

the corner. It is devoted almost entirely
to clippings from the pres showing why
the Torrey bankruptcy bill should pass,
and is printed at the expense of the gov
ernment. Perhaps the bill mav be a
good one, for it provides for a uniform
system a'l over the U. S. and gives a man
wbo hit failed a chance again ; bnt just
what business it is for the government to
print newspaper clippings by the stack
is beyond our comprehension.

M ankers: "Senator, vour public rec

ex feeling to vote lor yon if we could not
elect a populist, your abandonment of

tbe gold standard eoapled with interna

for me to vote for too."
Mitchell: "Mr. M ankers yon did not
endemand my planet of Mars apeech
What I meant was, that it wat aa im
possible to get an international agree
ment to coin silver under the Cleveland
administration as it woo id be to baild

Mitchell (with embarrassment. "That
is certainly a misunderstanding, Mr.

Munkers: "Well, a3 I know i, that
this ia a copy of the teolation I bave
