Perhaps William's head is not just level It is an interesting fact that of the thirteen hundred men flyiug from Dawson, on account of fear of starva tion, a good many of them irtend to re turn. They evidently believe in the Klondike. A pleasing item in the papers is that J Pierpont Morgan recently lost $300,' 000 in street car stock . It really does one good to see Pierpont lose ore' sionally. Now it is declared that some of the Spanish generals declare the Presidents message an insult. We have been fear- ing that it suited Spain loo well, hence it is good news that even a Spanish general ,ia insulted. We hope lo see them get real mad.

Clifford W Kantner.the accomplished son o! Rev and Mrs W C Kantner, ttrs city leaves this morning for Nash ville, Tennessee, where he will at once rrsume his studies in music, under the tutelage of his former preceptor Emit L Winkler.

Salem Statesman. The Rev Thomas Keith, pricked by bis conscience, recently returned nil his pension money.some $465. to tbe govern ment, and now he has wri'ten io tbs New York World explaining bis motives of conscience and hooesty. In bis letter be cites a case in which s Presbyterian elder is drawing $30 a month 'or deaf ness while managing a long distance telephone as aa occupation. Publish tbe pension list ! E O. The Guaid says it costs f 100 a month to feed tbe tramps, which is done out it tbe city's money. It is no more a city's business to feed that kind of paupers than it is any other kind of a pauper. Again it is a good way to foster tbe tramp nuisance, Wneneverthe tramp is starved he will stay away, and that is a ft rod way to solve tbe tramp problem. We bave enough poor at boms who de serve what little we bave to spend be sides wbat we need to run onr owo institution. A man awhile ago left hit family in Kansas, and can-e out to Oregon. Tbe wile and children have had to go to tbe poor bouse. The man located In Eu gene where he was soon found out, and the Guard calls him a brute, which is tameenooxh. His name is Wick am. He would look well inside of a cost ot tar and feathers. Such men sbonld be made to know that there is no place io society even of the lowest order for then.. In his report on tbe reindeer in Alaska Commissioner Harris thus describes the useful qualities of the animal: Provi- derce seems to have a lap ted tbe rein deer to 'he peculiar condition of Aretie life, and made him at once tbe best helper to man in the transportation of aupplies.the surest sonree of animal food and the producer of the warmest cloth ing. His horns and hoofs furnish the brat material for the making ot glue, his hftir, on ecsount of its extreme lightness s the best for use In the construction of ife saving apparatus, and he also furn ishes tne possibilities for large a nd wealtL producing industries. Chairman Young ot the populist cen tral committee of the slate has issued an ad dries advising tbe party l go it alone, and to refuse all p'ans ot union with other forces. Chairman Young, ot the state Union organization, has issued en address advising a union of forces, urging the organization of onion clubs, aud closing; with the fallowing: It we can get a non-partisan ticket nominated on the lines proposed, we can carry the elate by 10,000 majority. Plain open handed honesty in want ed. Let the union movement be what it pretemls'to be. and tbe aim be "on to the primaries." The primary meetings in our little country schoolhouses are of more value to American interests than fie star-chamber work of politicians. Let the oid parties be maintaiced. However, it is better that a'l parties, factions and leaders be swallowed np than that the people he swallowed np by th money oligarchy . 'United we stand; divided we fall." The advice to let tbe old party organ- I IzaJons be maintained, is particularly I acceptable to members of the democratic r well as in local politics. Tbe democratic ; party here is too closely identified with te history of tbe nation to give np in fie least Its identity. There might be cases where the union of forces would ee desirable and practicable, but every movement should be weighed with j greater object ahead than merely tern- J porary benefit. For Yaquina. The Yaquina Bay Committee appoint ed at a citizens meetinx several weeks ago have prepared the following, letter and ttatisticr, which have been mailed to Congressman Tongue: Albany Or, Dec. 16 1897. Hon T H Tonous, Washington, D C : Dear Sir: In compliance with your request while hers a few weeks ago, t committee which was appointed to col lect statistics in regard to the output which was sold in tne year 1807 in the different counties which would be mate rially benefitted by the improvement ot the harbor ot Yaquina, aud the exten sion ot tbs Oregon Central and Eastern R R into Eastern Oreoo, after a great deal of labor in collecting them, beg to submit the enclosed report to you In addition to this report we will say that the future prosperity of this coun try depends largely upon the completion of the Oregon Central ti Eastern ,R R on through our great timber belt In the Cascade mountains and Eastern Oregon, to connect with some transcontinental railway, giving ns an oppertunity to market our vast timber output. In the Cascade mountains, in Linn and Marion counties alone, a conservative estimate is 800,000 acres of as fine timber as man ver looked upon. This at 40,000 feet per acre amounts to 32,000,000,000 feet. Of this amount probable one-fourth is accessible to the line of the Oregon Cen tral & Eastern R R, being 1,000,000 car loads of 9000 feet each, or 40,000 train loads ot 25 cars each. Trusting that this may be of sent ence to yeu and your co-workers from Oregon in eecuriog.tUe improvements ot Yaquina harbor, I remain, ery truly yours, S X &TKKLS, Chairman ot Committee. Tbe report is in the form of a tabu lated statement, showing tbe annual output of principal products of the couu ties tributary to l equina h arbor. The figures for L:nn county are as follows: Wheat 1,200,000 bu $900,000 Oats 400,000 bn 120,000 Rye 18,000 bu 9,000 Hay 50.0C0 tons 400,000 Hops 3(3.000 lbs 32.000 Cattle 10.700 160.500 Hogs 11.000 87,600 Sheep 18,400 36.400 Wool 300.000 lot 39,000 Potatoes 216.000 bu 61.300 Dried fruits 453.000 lb. 18.300 Green (raits 4.500.00C Iks 13.750 Poultry 26,000 dox 52,000 Eggs 2400,003 dox 250,000 Butter 800,000 lbs tSO.&.'O Lumber 20,000,000 feet 160,000 Total f2.4C9.500 Tbe totals for the other counties are as follows: Benton $131.175 Clackamas 1.367.000 Crook 851.750 Douglas 1.335.400 Haroey 830,753 Lane 2.069.000 Lincoln.... 325.323 Marion Malheur...

ISO Tbe man wbo would bave predicted the present condition ot tbe Washing ton end of tbe republican party a '.ittle more than a year ao, when it bad just elected a President and a majority of tbe House, would not have been given credit for a good jodgment, even by the bitterest enemy of that party. In fact, ft is difficult for any one not in Wasbincton, to believe tbe extent of the disruption of the party. Nothing can better illustrate this than the attitude of to republicans in Coogrese towards the recommendation made by Mr. Mc Kinley's message. Not a siogle one of tbem haa tbe support ot anywhere eear the solid republican vote in either branch of Congress. Mr. UcKinlry asked indireclly.Secreiary Gage directly, ior tbs retirement ot tbs greenbacks but if the populists and democrats re frain from voting, it is doubtful whether a bill providing therefor could pass either branch of Congrets; Mr. Mo Kinley's Cuban policy is cooUotly and openly assailed by republicans ; l.e ask ed for the immediate ratification of the treaty for the annexation of Hawaii, bat not a move haa been made in ihat direction in the senate, and abandon mtnt of tbe treaty la looked lor; be de fended the ci ril service law, and one half of tbe republican members of the House are openly engaged io an effort to break down that law. to fact, every tbinc Is tending; towards a restoration of the democratic party to power, and tbe once boasUd solidity of the repub lican partv. which was for years its most noted trait, has .gone, apparently forever. Reprssntalive Sullivan, of Miss., in bis speech against the payment of pen pensions to wealthy men quoted exten sively from Gen. U Y Bojnton's recent arraignment of the injustice of the pension laws as no administered, be cause he endorsed what that gentleman bad said and knew that nobody could raise any queslson lo Mr Boy nton's riuht to criticize. Although the pension bill passed by the House, carries an appro priation of more than $141,0110,000, something like $2 for each niau, woman and child in tbe U. 8 it ai rushed through the House in an hour or two and every amendment proj-oied by the democrats was voted down. Represen tative Diogley's remark that of every $5 paid out by tbe government $2 went to pay pensions and fifty cents went to pay interest on the public debt, although probably not made for such a purpose ought, in view of tbe probable pension deficit ol $10,000,000 in the next fiscal year, and the announced desire of the administration to increase our bonded indebtedness, to cause many persons to put on their thinking caps. The report that Czar Reed Is in sym pathy with tbe fight on civil service reform, because he recognizes it in a means of lessening Mr. McKinley's chance for renominatior, was partia'ly confirmed by the attendance at a causus of republican Representatives called to consider ways and means of fighting tbs civil service law, and bring about its modification or complete repeal. Will Durrant hang on January 7. That is the question again being asked, with at least two answers. Mr. Dnprey and a few others declare that he will not. Tbe public are anxious for the agony to oe over m auape. me case has already attraated more atten. tion than it deserves, or is good for the public pulse. Letter. SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS. At leant one man took the Democrat man to task lor omitting his Saturday night thoughts last week, and remarked that it must not occur again. We hope they are of sufficient interest that others also missed them. It is very pleasant to be roused personally when one is ab sent, and the same sentiment exists in a case like this. Thia week Webfoot has continued to be Itself, with a mixture of chill, hardly deep enough to be called i old. An important event of the wask was the reorganisation of the company run ning tbe railroad beginning at Yaquina Bay and now ending somewhere up in tbe Cascade mountains, in a manner to make it evident that the road will be extended into eastern Oregon, a consum mation devoutly sought by the people of tbe valley generally. It looks lias bnei tiess, aud besides Mr Hammond's wotd is at the back cf it. It may be remem bered that this is the firtt time that Mr Hammond has msde a direct statement mat the road would be extended. The 0mocrat now believes It will be. DuriDg the week Durrant was senten cea to be tanged for tin fourth time. It is no longer necessary to go into detail wnen you mention htm. lust bis last name Is enough. It has become s com mon word. Durrant is now at the head ol the class in notoriety in tbe criminal aistory oi tne coast. It will not take a.k long though to forge 1 him when the noose shall have done its work. An Albany man just mined a steamer by an hour.and the steamer was wreckej and most on board drowned. That was acioee cau. Keally Iile coirea preity close anyway to hanging by a thread . This week a seven year old boy namsd Uyron Uiloert, at Topeka, Kan., passed tbe required examination tor admission to tbe bar, with the order that ce be . i . .. . ie otceteary utploma upon reaching tbe legal aire.
