A letter to a Eugene real estate firm published elsewhere indicates that most of the igneramuses live in the east.

Within a romparatiYely few years the duel has en abolished among most people c( enlightenment. The vies of kings are to longer regarded by their people with Himplacency, and kin- themselves tave but short tenure of their thrones, ecause the world is strengthening i'seil or self-government. Slavery has been rept from nearly all the earth, yet, only orty years ago the slaves were counted y millions. Piracy has utterly vanished rom the seas. Charity has taken oo a icndred forms. The standards of edu cation are higher. Churches are more practical. Man is improving, not because be force fcr betterment exists in nil aws, or in bis training, but in himself, ie is reaching toward bis ok, poasibili iea, not merely for his own ake, but :'or that of his race and the world. The following extraordinary comptt- -nent comes from the Rainer Review : Columbia county is to be congratulated n the good fortune of having a circuit ludge who expedites the business of the nrcnit court at the least pos:ble expense to the county ; a district attorney, who ioea not have any frivolous indictments made ani who dea not pile up useless ieea for himself at the expense of the tax. payers; a county judge an I two commit - ionre, wbo use every honorable means ta save the county useless expense, and who have the courage to refuse to allow many useless and unlawful oil's sent in by justice of the p?a, constables and a-itnecses ; a clerk, ho dispatches the business of bis office in a way to bring he greatest income to the county; a tberiff wbo, by bis energy and ability, i Electing the ounty's funds as they oe ver were collected before, and wbo turns such funds into the treasurv every day, thus preventing the possibility ot loss by default and giving th county the full use of the funds belonging to it. Verily if we can get above political prejudices and consider the personnel of the officers ol this district and county we caooo help but congratulate tne people on their good fortune. Deciaedly Inquisitive Real estate men are continually re ceiving letters asking for information about tbe sou n try, and some of them. too, are rather peculiar, says tbe Eugene Guard. Here is one just received by the Engeie Real Eitate & Investment Co., that is a mcde' for, its quizzing charac teristics: "Is there" an Odd Fellows lodge out here? Ho much butter, eggs, bogs, cows, bene, sheep, hens and turkeys? How muc'i do all tbe fruits and nuts which can be raised there sell for? Can you raise strawberries and corn? Do tbey have landslides, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions near this place and do the wild and ferce animals ever come down as far as that? What are tbe taxes on this place and what is the legal in terest out there? "How many inhabitants has Eugene and are thing at cheap there as in Chi cago? What is the matter that all the people want to sell out and how far is the nearest neighbor and what in his name, from No. 16 ? Describe the bouse, are they plastered or near, are tbey log or frame? How many bushels of grain can you raise per acre on tbe average 7 Have they green houses there and bow much is board? What do you have to pay to secure tue hired help of men and boys, and of women to helt in tLe house? I! a man went out t.iere wbo was not Uzy, could he make a living and not starve to d-satb?

V. 0 tear Sam Stmpfon Redivivus. - Someone, under the name of the "Pa ciUo County Publishers Co." has started a newspaper down at Ilwaco, named it the Pacific County Tribune, and en gaged Sam L. Simpson a its editor. The first Issue ot the new paper ta filled with poetical fancies in prose and verse. Fi lends gave a dinner party, In cele bration of her 80th birthday, to Mrs. Hannah L Eaaterbrook, relict of Capt. George L. Easterbrook, at her home in Ilwaco, on May 3rd. Mr. Simpson writes up a report of the pleasant even! n-.gives a history of the family, and concludes the article with the following lines, which show that his mind retains some of the poetic fervor of the time when he wrote "The Beautiful Willamette," cel ebrated the world over, catching its in spiration on a spring morning, after a protracted spree, as be viewed one of its stretches near Albany, Oregon, in a walk along its banks for the purpose ot shak ing off the effects ot his crapulence, says an Ex. I. Eighty years of sun and shadow. Eighty years of smiles and tears! And we only pause and wonder In our swift and short careers ; Elahty years of love and dutT, Eighty yerre of hopes and dreams, And the chaplat they have woven On tbymeek brow softly gleams! II. On this height ot time triumphant Thou canst see the promised land. And the long path of thy journey, Guided by the Father's hand ; la the Under dusk ot gloaming Linger mornings gold and rove, And through falling, fading vespers Morning mosiu gently flows. III. In thy bosom sweet affections Still exhale a fresh terfume. And thou emil'st at youthful ardor. Grateful for its summer bloom; For in true hearts wistful yearnings Never wholly past away. And the children of remembrance Never wander far astray. IV. Cherished, honored, slowly passing To the dim and mystic shore. Loving life, yet blandly listening For the silent boatman's oar. Surely is the day worth living Whose evening is so bright and calm, Hope and memory incense bringios rom the shores of bloom and balm. v- . Here tte gray sea, throbbing, singing - Bongs tby sailor loved so well Mingles requiem and paean. And no doubt with thee can dell That, with signals set to welcome Thee to guerdon and to rest ; Still hi spirit bark is waiting Near tbf.tsiand of tbe blest. A Good Letter The following it a letter written by D. K. Warren, of Astoria, in response to a gentleman wbo is making inquiry about this country with a view to investing here: Tbe letter is much to tbe point : L-C. Stewart, Ft. Myers, Florida DearSn: Yours of tbe 10th lost came to hand this morning, aod in reply will say I have been trviut- to think ot some of the "disadvantages" of Oregon since receiving your le'ter, and to be frank, I must say that 1 am sorry yoa could not b ive given me something easier, for have lived here only 4o years, which is entirely too short a time to gather snffi eient data and information In regard to tbe "disadvantage" of Oregon aod pecially of this locality from which to foimulate a readable letter. I will there fore merely note a few objections that I have to this country, as tbey have oecur- ed to me within ths brief time above mentioned: We have to much rain in winter. Well, let me see. We have no cyclones and thunderstorms to purify tbe atmos phere. Can't grow oranges, can't keep alligators, except in alcohol. Have very few flies, no maequitoes, no rattlesnakes J nor venomous reptiles. No fever and ague, no malaria, no drouths, no fai.ure of crops, no excessive beat, no blirxards, and not so cold by ten degrees as it was in central Florid when your Orange trees were frozen. That's about aU I can think of along that Hoe. aod I will now note a few things tbat ws bav. We have the tallest Umber, the grand est mountains, ths purest water, tbe finest wheat, ths most charming valleys, the choicest fruit tbe largest salmon and the most beaithtol climate on the North American continent. As for tbe society, will say this country contains a large preponderance of Eastern people, and you will find the morals, manners and customs very similar lo those of tbe Eastern and Middle states. Tbe needs of the country are, principally capital, backed by sufficient brains and energy to make it active. We have work for a million men on this coast, if we had the capital lo develop tbt dormant and (.latent resources of this country. Our principal productions for export are wheat, lumber, salmon, fruit and wool. There follows some timely words for Astoria and surrounding country.

Price's Cream Baking Powder Awarded M-dal Mkdwtater Pair. San Pra SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS Tb week closes with the graves of old soldiers decorated with a profusion ot flowers, rich in their btauty. touched by natures lavish hand, enriched by Oregon's peculiarly well favored c'irnate and yielding soil. Loving hands I avs placed them there as well as over the last resting place of departed relatives. The custom is a pretty one that deserves to be perpetuated. A young Benton county man wbo married an old woman is not entitled to mucb sympathy because life became so burdensome that be decided to commit uicids. There was no excuse for his marying, and any way marriage is too serious a matter for such foolishness as be displayed in marrying without con sideration. Why, a man will not even buy a horse without seeing whether it is ringbonedor spavined. More marriages would be successes if men would become manly husbands in stead of merely selfish beings incapable of appreciating the rights of others. There should be absolute equality, backed by forbearance and sensitive consideration of each other. Tbe home strawberry has come into the market with a rush and Is queen of the tea table.

It is the testimony of almost all cap tains of ths ocean-going liners that chil dren are rarely if ever seasick a fact that ought to prove of some suggestive therapeutic value to those who attempt to prescribe remedies for this dreaded but inevitable affliction. A fact worth recording is tbat the fe male employee of many German factor ies are forbidden to wear corsets during working hours. The Japanese language is said to con tain 60,000 words, a symbol for each be ing required. A well-educated Japaneee is familiar with about 10.000 of there symbols.

The following from Port Townsend ie equal to ths storie of fiction : On May 26 white cruising in the neighborhood of Cape Flattery, the attention of Captain Clinger, of the tugboat Holyoke, was attracted to a great commotion io the southward. Steaming to tbe arena, the captain aod crew of the Holyoke wore awarded with tbe spectacle of a vicious fight between a canoe fleet of lodiao cl one side and a large whale on the other Tbe Indian bandied tbeir raorw well, and from every point of tbe rompa an attack was being mad, barpo after harpoon sinking from eight 1 1 ths aid of the monster, which lashed the water high into tbe air in it vscius attempt to crush the canoe and drowt. i' tor mentors.

Sail cn, ob Union, strong and great! Humanity's will with all its tears, With all the hopes of future years, It hanging breathless on thy fate." A Benton county young man is said to have gotten even with a rival, of whom he was jealous, by sticking twenty-one pins in bis b'eycfe tire All efforts to re pair that tire have proven failure. Gov.
