momv One kind of prosperity not desired 18 that built on borrowed capital. .Washington state ia in debt $2,000,000 nnd it baa to pay $100,000 interest a year. For shame. Ia Sherwood, Washington connly, a man cannot vote at the town election unless he pays taxeB on $100. North Dakota is making rapid strides towards civilization . It is now neces sary to live a year there before a divorce can be secured. - From the Boston Herald.- No honest and upright man fears ne wa piper cartoons. It ia the scalawags whose withers are thus wrnng. Now if the Cubans and Spaniards will nettle their differences as pointedly aB did Corbett and FiUaiinmona they will do the world a great favor. The Mississippi River is said to carry heavier deposits than any o'.her stream in the world, but it seems just now to have mighty little regard for its banks. ! Republic. Now that Mr Corbett will not be seated will Gov Lord call an extra session of the legislature. It ia very doubtful, though Salem people will make a big effort to get him to do so. North Dakota has passed a law pro viding that a man shall not be disqnali fisd as a juryman because he has formed an opinion from reading the newspapers This is proper. More and more, as civ ilization advances, the demand for jury men with brains enough to read the pspers and form opinions, increases. ' That nine days debate on the tariff wilt be for the constituents of the mem bers. It won't change matters any. The policy is to let the republicans have all the rope they wish and then take the re sponsibilitv of adding materially to the cost of the things we eat and wear. Thomas G Shearman, an eminent statistician, eays " The United States of America are practically owned by less than 250,000 person?, constituting less than one in 60 of its adult population. Within 30 years, the present methods of taxation being continued, the United States tit Ameiica will be substantially owned by less than 59,000 persons, con stituting less than one in 500 of the male population. If this system continues the coming of the billionaire on the one hand and of the million paupers on the other, is inevitable. ' The fairest and most unprejudiced statement made before the recent Cght, was that of J Walter Kennedy, a physic al cultcre expsrt. We give it on ac count of its ingenuity, and because of its wonderful truih, as veriCed by the eon test: "To teg:a with, Ccroett ia by far the more intellectual, and possesses the greater acquired ski!." and science; while Fitz3iaimons is gifted with more natural instinct and t unning in the one faculty fighting. For instance, I will compare Corbett with a fox' terrier and FiUsim moss with a cat. If tee dog sees a mouse poke its head oat of a hole, he springs at it like a flash, jemps around and wastes lots of energy, which looks well and earns praiee for the terrier, because of its agility, dish and ebewy qualities, al though the mouse has escaped. "But, let a cat,- which has rot by any means so much intelligence as a dog, see a mouse put its head out of a hole ! This .animal's instinct and cunning tells him that he mast make no unnecessary movements, so he crouches and waits patiently for hia opponent to give him an opening Finally, the mouse, think ing there is no harm in an enemy that is not aggressive, comes out, and, Ic! the cat, quick as thought, gets in a straight lead or a right or left hook "Fi'zsiiamons is really a marvelous fighting machine in human form, bom to fight, Corbttt, I tLiak, was born to be something better than a prise fighter.yet he is a wonder at that, and I would like to see him win.

The Portland journal eays: Secretary Masten, of the Portland Im migration Board, is one of the busiest men in the city. The opening of spring brings with it an increase ia the volume of inquiry from the East concerning Oregon and its advantages. Proof of this is found in the fact that during the month of April, last year, the board re -ceived 171 letters from residents of East ern states who desired to obtain infor mation for themselves and. friends,wbi1i daring the present month of this year it has already received 800 letters. These letters come mainlv from the farming element, a fact appreciated by the board, because it is the agricultural class of de velopers the state is moat id need of. Population, increasing the consumption of products ond enlarging the market proportionately, will, more quickly than anything ehe, line the banks of the Willamette from Salem to WasbuyaJ with factorie3 and en con ran e their pro moters to utilize our raw materials in the raacutactnre of products to supply tho local demaud. "Many home seekers hare already ar rived this spring," said Mr. Masten", "and have either Ioja'd or are seeking locations nt the valley. I mailed to other inquirers yesterday alone 1I let ters, which wis! give joa some idea of baeinb-B in that line the board is trans acting now. "When peopU wriu ns about the chance to obtain employment, we dis courage their coming, because we want those whs will come to operate a farm, davelop our reso'ircee, create permanent improvement and proJacs something,'' "A gentleman hn arrived this m&rn ing said I hat he waj already in love with the country; that he came with the idt-a that he would b. rcaHt-d immediately to pnrclms" an oilcloth coal and a pair of gnnib.Kta, so deluged wyald the coun try be with rain; hat that he found a brigh', bluesly and bracing spring at mosphere to greet him. ii mj 9 that a fidae iinpiessjon prevails throughout the Kat concerning l.e rainfall in tin's oonn-trv.- .' "The plan ol Eastern communities to. send an intelligent representative on in advance 'to obtain and send back inlor inatwn concerning the state is r got id one.' Much confusion id thus aroid. d Kud much better results attained, "There is reason to belkve thai - an extraordinary emigration from tie East will reach Oregon this year." Thousands of Inquiries are received by people all over the stale who have relatives e-r friwids in the East," am the Hfiirral impression Is that the influx of home seekers into this state this year will be unprecedented. Invoking The Aluse. ! A few months ago, I asked the Horace class toinvoke the Muse of Poetry and give me the result in a metrical version . of the SOth Ode of Book ill of the Odea I ot Horace. Ait the members of the class j claim that they invoked the Muse, but some of them assure me that no replv was given to their invocation. I have given below, as samples, the response made to one Senior and to one Junior. I have given the metrical version of the same Ode by the "Grand old Man of England," that the readers of the 1kmo crat may have an opportunity of com paring the youthful potts of Albany Col lege with one who has often invoked the Goddess of Poetry.

Editor Democrat : And yet there are thousands of people in the business, hem Maine to Oregon, and from the Canadian line to the bord ers of Mexico. During the last 40 years, I have lived in seven different states and have found, by experience and observa tion, multitudes of men and women en gaged in this business. It seems strange that so many follow it, when there is no money in it, but they do. . Perhaps one reason is, that it does not require much capita and there cannot be much loss. I suppose, too, that it must be a pleasant business, judging from the number engaged in it. This is perhaps the rea son that so many continue in the busi ness from year to year, although there is no money in it. It is also possible that the acquisition necessary to carry on the business affords much enjoyment and thus conduces to its continuance. That it require a large fund of informa tion on a great variety of subjects does not admit of a doubt. Iu fact, this is the prlccipal stock in trade; and it is astonishing how much some engaged in the business know. They actually know aiore about yoor business than yon do yourself. I will give an illustration. A short time ago L was asked if it was leally true that two of the professors n the college were going to leave it at the dose of the present scholastic year. J. was an agnostic oo the subject and could not answer the question. After making some investigation I was able to make this reply : "The president and board of trus tees of the college have not banded in his resignation to either of the professors named, as the colored preacher said bis congregation did to him, and neither knew whether he weald be in the coll -ge next year or not. The investigation also revealed another fact, that this report was "all over town," and had been "in one of the papers ." I suppose it came to the editor from some body else, who bad learned it from some one who bad forgotten who to'.d him. The report came to me from Lebanon, anj is a confirmation of the old saying, that "you have to go away from home to get the home news." And during all its peregrinations (if that is the proper word) up and down the valley and through the town, there was no mosey in it for anyone. Qaoderat demonslra dum. AGAMOf. Air.

Editor Democrat: The report' of the recent census o' Hawaii coatains food tor serious thought by those Americans who contend that Uncle Sam's interests and tne islander's welfare would be advanced by the an nexation of Hawaii by this government. If the tide of immigration to the Sand wich Islands does not soon change its complexion the Mongolian race, led by the ambitions Jap will, in short time, outnumber both native Kanakas and foreign whites. hen the Asiatics be come numerically greatest in Hawaii it is highly probable that they will be as quick to manifest tne same determina tion to rule that has characterised their race wherever they have bad the power to back their de-ires. If this condition on the islands should occur, as now teems possible in tbe near future; the United States, should ity be obliged to uphold law and order there, might find a mote vexing race problem than now confronts ns in the South. But if the preseLt conditions in Hawaii, as regards population, remain uncbaoged, it would be a risky experi ment for this government to grant the islands the privileges, benefits and obli gations ot statehood should they sincere ly desire them. The political conditions now existing there, and the complica tions that soon or later will arise as a result of the present mixed foreign pop ulation are very liable to produce dis turbance whose removal by tkia gov ernment would mean entanglement with nations with which we are now friendiy. But luckily for both .the Hawaiian government and oar own the day baa passed, doubtless never to re turn, when a majority in either govern ment would seriously think ol annex tion. 8. A. L. A Senator's Day. i Wno wou d be a 0. 8. senator, if tbe following from the Poet is even tbe shad ow of tbe truth : Yesterday was one of Senator Mason's bus days. When be awoke at 6rt5 a m be went down stairs to greet a company of office seekers who had been camping on bis door step all night. He indorsed forty-six applications for office, promised sixteen candidates that he would see tbe President personally ia their behalf, asd gave assurance to thirty-four that be would call upon the vsrious Cabinet officers to advance their claims. At 7:30 o'clock Senator Mason took op bis mail. There were 1,432 letters, of which 1,431 related to applications for office. 'The remaining one asked the Senator for a public document which gave advice as to the duties of a Consul . It is believed that ao application for a place abroid will follow in due time. At 9 o'clock Senator Mason bad ans wtred all his mail and bad promised every office in the country and out of ft to every republican in the state ot Illinois. Five minutes later be beaded tbe pro cession which bounded up tbe White House stsirs and at 0:27, Observatory time, he was camped in front of tbe President's office. He had taken posses sion of Secretary Porter's desk, bad spread his applications around him un til they covered something less than an acre of space, and was listening to tbe whispered suggestions of two Chicago office seekers who bad followed him to the Executive Mansion At 9:30 Mr. Mason was by the President's side, nn folding to him the manifold advantages presented by 1,597 Illinois Republicans in the matter of capacity and equipment as well as devotion to party. At 11 :45 Senator Mason had concluded only one half of the presentations of bis applications, but was railed to the sen ate. Bv this tiiae the crowd of Illinois office seekers was so large that as it fol lowed Senator Mason down Pennsylvania avenue it was taken for another inaugu ral procession. During the progress ol tbe Senator to the Capitol he received fifty-four more apillcations. From 12 o'clock to 4 Senator Mason re mained in the marble room, holding con ference with the office seekers. He was handed 473 cards by tne messengers, 475 containing the names of would-be office holders, and the 47btb being a newspa per correspondent who wanted to forward by freight far U.e names of the Illinois people in Washington. At 5 o'clock Senator Mason was home, busy with his afternoon mail, and at 7 o'clock was dining, witii lou'teen Illinois republicans eamped at his dining room' door. At a lata hour last night he was still surround d by a crowd, but hoped to escape at midnight for some Deeded rest. , This morning Senator Mason will again head the procession up the White House steps. . There U a great rivalry between Ohio and Illinois as to the State which shall pull off the largest oumbsr ot offi ces. At 11:37 last night the ouus were in fjvor of Illinois.
