It is rsally humorous to see the some papers calling Mr. Kincaid a turncoat and opposing him on that ground, and with the same brealb laud such men as M. L. Pipes, as big a turncoat.

Otnces should be filled by m-n uUe Mr. Kin caid, giving the woiid less complaint about corruption in high places. The war scare is having its effect. Products of toil, wheat, etc , are going up. Stocks and bonds going down. The conservative basin sss interests of the Kast, the stock speculators of Wall street are against upholding the honor and dignity of the country because of the effect war baa upon their holdings.

In every position in lifeuwhether as a farmer's boy, laboring to earn suf ficient money to pay for bis education at college, before tbe bar, as a private cit izen, or in tbe halls of tbe state senate, his strong mentality .Individuality, sound conservative judgment, honesty of pur pose and devotion to principle, have in spired tbe confidence and rerpect of all, and marked him as a fearless, safe and intelligent leader of men. When only thirteen years ol sge he traveled with another party from Walla Walla to Jordan Valley, in what now is Malheur county, Oregon, A distance Of 300 miles, be and bis companion having but one horse between them, each riding and walking by turns. Young King worked on a farm during that summer in Jordan Valley and in the fall just aftsr the close of tne Indian war of 1878, traveled oa horseback alone through wbat .was thsn largely an uninhabited country to Walla Walla, Wash., to1 attend school, and when his school term bad ended in the spring, returned to Malhenr to again lake up bis duties on the farm, where he remained until 1SS2. 8y industry and rigid economy he earn ed sufficient money to take a course in eolleee. and accordingly in the lall of 1SS2, be entered the State Agricultural college at Corvallis, Oregon, where he remained at school for three years; Necessity campelled him to again re turn to the farm in Maibeur county. where be remained catil ISS9. During tbat year be began a course in tbe iaw school of Danville, Indiana, graduating Irom there July 1, 1891, with distinction and honor. Soon after be opened a iaw office in Vale, Malheur county.

Captures have been made and the harbor of Havana has been block aded. It is nut surmised that it will be a very difficult thing to take Havana. And then what. The course being pur sued by Spain is a mystery and it is dif ficult to tell ahatwill follow. With her fleet atatioraiy at Cape Vrde Islands, with Cuba in danger, tler is something peculiar in the matter. IVrhaps there is a deep laid trick that will fool Uucls Sam aud that tne first thing he knows he won't kuow anything so to speak. When it comes to tricks though the yankee has always been able to bold his own. An interesting feature is the innocent injur ed look that Spain has assumed. "What have we done' tays Blanco, "g irom that we should be treated in this way attacked without any cause.' This o court is gsme to get European sympa thy. Who blew np the Maine? Spain. Who treated tbe Cubans for years worse than b utes, even the neipiesi concentradoes inhumanly? t-pain. Isn't it time for the United States to act.

It may be news to you( but tbere is practically no dissent from the preposition I have just stated among tbe standard economic authorities of the world. Henry Dunning McLeod, neit to Giffen tbe ablest English champion of your gold standard, ssvs: "There is ideally nodiffdrer.ee in principle between a meta'lic and a paper currency, only one depends upon a wider basis of credit or of acceptance than the other." Said tbe great Lord Overstate: In adopting a paper circulation we must unavoidably depend for a maintenance of its due vei ns upon tbe adoption of a strict and ju dicious rule for the regulation of its a mount." Paulas, tbe ablest of Justin ian's juriseonsuls, wrote into the Pan dects, over twelve centuries ago, tbe fol lowing: .
