The govern ment shouldputitdownina canter. Senator John L Wilson, of Washing tan, has just settled a several thousand dollor note for ten cents on the dollar That is not a good example for a United States senator. The charges of bribery are being poured red hot into the Uanna camp. The Democrat' guess is that they are true, but who can prove it. The man taking a bribe will never tell, nor the man giving it. Some of the papers are writing about the decline ot the senate. It will con tinue to decline so long as such specta cles as that just exhibited in Ohio are common. The senate bas become a body of plutocrats, whose interests are common with the trusts and monopolies of the country. An Albany man got a job in Juneau thaniirht he reached there. People ..);.,.. M. .ill think that Juneau is I OSSVe ak just the place to go, but then you can not always tell. There will be lots more money left in these Alaskan towns than is ever taken out. Watrh that fact and see if it is not true. The Portland and &eattlepapers are having a warm discussion as to which all Klondike outfits tbeeheaper. At the present writing both cities undoubt edly sell the cheaper. The proof been clear and conclo.ive. has Because elected TJ S senator of Ohio Mark Banna says that God reigns. A rood many people are beginning to think tbat Mark Hanna is the one who reigns. Hanna'e esreer has been an unsavory one, and it is silly to connect God with his election, in fact maks sensible people tired. The man who reported an uprising of the Seminolee and the killing of a large nnmberof whites when nothing of the kind bad occurred deserves being placed in the center of their war dances. Down on t :e canard spreader and may he be kicked from auiong decent people, whether a private citisen or a newspaper man. The Oregonian devotes more e?ace to the meeting of the frnit growers ciation than it did to the Darrant hang' ing. This displays good judgment. Frnit raising is to be a great industry in the Northwest, and it is pleasing to see so much attention paid to it. As a newtoaoer the Oregonian is a model; It g.ves the news well without the gilded sensationalism of too many large papers, and devotee space to important industries as well as to prixe fights and hangings, tbat is, U seeks to give the news whatever it ie. An eastern paper that ia ezrmolarv in this respect is toe Washington Post, a newspaper devoid of sensations ; The political issue will be more em phatic than ever, tbat of the single gold standard against bimetaUsm. nr. Gaeehas thrown the gauntlet down. and it has been uken np, and will be k.r.( nn until tba oeoDle decide tbs issue. There was not a straight vote on it at the hut issue, as the promise of I nl.rn .f inn. I bimetalism prevented it. But inrnatiooai bimetaliam bas been proven to have been a wii'othewisp, and it will not again figure in the matter Other important issue will be tbe tariff and trusts and monopolies, each offering mnch to think about. Take your pencil out and do soma fignrina. The United States is becoming Civi lized enough to have lynching done away with. It is a barbarous relic, and yet so long as our courts of justice are run in red tspe styles, at horse ear speed, there will be lynching. The peblic pulse calls for prompt justice, and it wi'l beat very fast if there is a delay. Technicality ehould no longer rale. The spirit of tbe law is to secure justice, and there ahould be less hag gling over deUils. Processes should bs simplified and the court' should always have the end in view, tbat of convicting the guilty promptly and clearing the innocent. Here is a pretty book on our table entitled "Parasitic Wealth." It ia written by John Brown, and ia just from the prestes of Chicago.

NIAQARAST. FPtU), Ft. Y The Economic Record. Tbe economic raoord for 1897, consists mainly in tbe enactment of a Unff bill which, nnder the pretense of incressing be revenue, basimpossd very heavy tax on the people which the Government does not receive but which tbe people pay. The greatest economlo event of the year bas been the abort crops of grain throughout the world, except in the Unittd Stales. This incident again illustrates tbe ssying of the French Min ister m tbe early 'part of the century that "the Lord takes care of the fools. tbe drnnken men and tbe United States. , The increased price of Western grain hod provisions have established the farmers of ti-s Mississippi Valley under most fa vorable eonditiona and have given an opportunity, which ought not to be lost, to make these eondiuons permanent. On the other band tbe growera ot cot ton have suffered from a beavjr decline in price, due to. the fact tbat the spin ning and weaving power of tbs manu facturing nations is for the moment ahead of the consuming power of other parts of tbe world. Tbe economic record of the year i also marked by the rapid development o the production of gold inampla measure for the needs of the world as a monetary standard or nnit ot valne. It has also been marked by tnerecord not only of the increased product ot silver, bat by its vry low cost, to the end tbat it has become apparent tbat probably mors than one naif tbe present silver product, exceeding the entire output at as lata a date aa 1880, is a by product of copper and' lead mines ; while en tbe other band improvement in mining and tbe discov sry of methods of saving tbe sinc.at well as the copper, lead and gold of tbe great silver mines of Nsw South Wales, will bring silver down to the basis of a merely useful metal while totally forbidding its monetary use except for subsidiary coin age The export of this country have pass ed tbe billion dollar mark. Tbey con sist of examples of nearly every crude material drawn from tbe foret,ihe field, tbe mine or the workshop, ani from tbem np to the bigbset type of finished fabrics, especially in the iron and steel. The portentioos svent of lbs year has been tbe recognition of tbe fact tbat the para mount dominion in tbe making ot iron and steel haa paesed from tbe other side of tbe Atlantic to this conntry. Whatever nation posseese tbe para mooot control of making iron and steel at tbe highest rate oi wagra and at the lowest cost of this product, iu ty co itrol tbe commerce of the world whenever it choosei to exercito ita power by remov ing tbe obstructions which its own leg islators have placed in tbe way. Another economic rscord haa been made during tbe year tbe record of the fact that 0 par cent of the far-nersof tbe the great Mississippi Valley are free of any mortgage whatever. Owning their lands, their stock, their tools aod their crops, tbey have become tbe creditors ef tbe world. Tbey bold tbe command of tbe reserve of gold in every bang in every civilised country .

The inoet important political event of the past week was ths senatorial election in Ohio, ahich terminated as the Dkmo- csat predicted in tbe election of Mr. Hanna. While it is to bs regretttd th st such a man holds a seat In ths U S senate, yst he has plenty of company of about the same calibre, and it is a fact that he is so much a part of ths pres ent administration from its conception that it is only propsr that he be kept in something during it. Ii he would keep bis word and serve the people, dropping politics in bis nat'onal labcrs, a rustler of bis capacity could do a great deal for the people, bat it is safe to predict tbat there will be politics back of everything he Joe. Locally our cily council have elected such officers as come within their juris diction, doing it witl) an expedition and harmony that was so far as appearances went, due psrfl y to a previous caucus. The result seems to give sstisfaction, at least as 'much as usual on occasions wbsre there are several candidates. This Saturday night sees the Alaska fsver increasing, lhsrs is promise of a boiling before it ceases. Wtatever else t does it Is patting a great deal of mon ey io circulation, and it Is probable more money is being spent than will ever be brought oat from the frozen mines of the north . Tbe most important matter before congress this week has been Hawaii. The making of spread eagle speeches baa begun and it is probable tbat before a vote is tsken tbs eagle's wings will be tired. President Dole will go to Wash ington in person In order to help along in the annexation proposition. Teople on tbis coast generally bops to see it effected. Nearly evervthiba: connected with tbejitnatlon calls for the making of Hawaii a part of ths United States. tt . a. iiewcrsi aisaster ot tbs week was tbe lerrtb!eycione or tornado that saspt throngii parte of Arkacras,in Fort Smith alone killing fjrty three people. It sras unrelenting in its character, savsge in its mode of proceedure. People are fortnoate who do not live in a country subject to tbe cyclone, an enemy Ihst comes without waroiog and is merciless in ite treatment of its vic tims. Tbe advocate of the Klondike relief measure are now getting it into their heads that it is too late to do any good. Certainly, bat in the first plac Hi- re net is not needed io the starvation sne. This will go down as ihe most silly relief measure fa tt.e hi, lory o' Ids L oited slates, and the !&mocbai looses its patience when it contemplates the jobbing character of the ahol baioes. a-Milngton Ltt.r. Proa mu malar Cmxtmii Wbingion, Jan. 10 b. 1S9S. Mr McKinley, br working overtime and by using a shovel on tbe p e.managed to smd more nominations to the Sena's since Congress reeseembied than bav before gone in in any ainfle k since be took charge oi tne pie counter, but ii bas not leeeeoed ths pressure on him tot pie even a little bit. For every buogrt mouth be baa filled there are a thoosab 4 asking to e filled. S.-ostor Bal'er of Njrth Caroiina. haa offered a joint reeoluttou proposioa a constitotiooal amendment that would revolutionize the C S courts lr pre poses that alt the U S judges, locladicg those of the Saprems Court, shall be elected by the people, for terms of eight years, aod provides for a sit vision of tbe conntry inlo circuits for their eltction. Many democrats in Congress favor beginning tbe congressional campaign ot next Fall at once, on tiw fl urs of Con gress, snd keeping op a red hot, aggress ive fight upon tbe republicans from stsrt to finish. Among tbem is Rrpre seoativa Da ArroonJ, Mieeouri.wbo said on tbs sub; set. "We ought to bs sggress i?t. We want to force the fighting. W e ought to lose no time in exposing tbe hypocrisy and cowardice of oar pa.itic' opponent.' Senator Chilton, of Trxu, tays of IS nvd service hubbub in repnb'.icao ranks: "In my opinion, if Mr Brysn had been elected instead of Mi McKinley, the fly specs which re publican orators io Congress now imag ine to be blood spots on tbs civil service system would have escaped the'r aiten lioo altogether. Tbeir eudden reatizt tion tbat the idea of civil service reform has been carried too far is due solely to tbeir purpose to get republicans into offices now filled by equally capable dem ocrats, and no democratic senator or represenative should give them aid or comfort in their designs." Czr Reed it tbe only republican in Con gress wbo baa never buckled down to Boss Hanna. On tbe contrary, be not long sgo made Uanna eat a big chunt of bumble pie. Senator Teller made a manly and able speech in reply to tbe numerous news paper stories alleging tbat some of the silvsr men in Congress have no proptr conception of to financial question, and are trying to force it to the front m jrely to mass a breech between Mr McKinley and bis Secretary of the Treasury. He said that it was ridiculous to sucrose that Mr Gage would retrain in the cabin e.t an hour if he and the President were not In financial accord ; also that tbe Republican party was today fully coiu mitttd to the gold standard. Every eye in tbe Senate was upon Mr Teller when he uttered these ringiug words: "I attack, the republican party because it is tbs party of tbe gold standard. I hope to see it go down in 1900, and I pledge you that I will do everything in my power to drag it down. It's policy is not such as is demanded by a great and free people. I have no quarrel with the President, but be stands for the gold staudard, a policy which in my opinion wilt impoverish and wreck bur people.'' An exchange has figured out that the stale of Oregon will lose $89,0iK) in the interest on ths money that is hing idle in the sla,te treasury, and it it intimated that some one will make nearly that much buying up wariams or ia some other wy. The servants of the Male onght to be as faithful in their service as they are in their own service. If any one gets tbs benefit of the $300,000 lying la the state treasury, it onght to be Oregon. This is a matter that ought to bs probed to the roots, no matter what tbe previous custom has been. Any one with horse sense knows that the state treasurer does not live on the small salary of $890 a year, but how he makes his money is ot course guess work. To Car. tioasiipacton tonv.,, .

The greatest sensation which haa vet developed with reference to the approach ing municipal campaign waa the "Mop" last night of Paul d'Ueirry from tbe ranks of the free silver republicans full into tbe midst of the populist camp.
