SOBER SECOND THOUGHT. Nearly fifty years have passed since Martin Van Buien delivered his once famous remark, "the sober second thought of the American citizen is al ways correct," and time has intensified rather than weakened the force of the pithy sentence. The political solons who fondly believe that their wisdom guides and their action secures the prosperity of the country, might view matters in a very different light if they could see that congressional halls are merely the forum from which the pleadings issue to that supreme jury box, the intelligent attention of the people. The day has long since gone by when silver-tongued orators could permanently influence the people in a directien contrary to their own thought. Newspapers and statesmen now acquire and retain influence by clerity in discovering and heartiness in following the public sentiment The successful leader among the modern nations is he who has the keen est intuitive perception of the meas 11 ice r.lmr will nnmmand the sutinort of his people. Washington, Jackson, and Lincoln, in our own land, and 3 mot, Bismarck, Victor Hugo, and Gladstone in Europe, are notable ex amples of this. Just now it is not inappropriate to invite attention to the fact thai no legislative or party policy can be per manently successful that does not carry with it "the sober second thought of the American people," and no state or sectional sentiment can organize or sustain measures that have not received such approval. Protecting the south- irn sngar-planter and destroying the northern wool-srrower: exnendinsr mil- lions to irrigate the desert lauds of a , x u sparsely settled states, but refusing a dollar of ajd to an impoverished ship ping trade with foreign ports, are measures to which the American peo ple are giving earnest scrutiny and in due timewill express the opinion that hober second thought will dictate. CREDIT. . The curse of business is credit, when it is abused by the recipient. And confidence once destroyed is seldom if ever restored. No thorough business man will risk his goods in places where Avnurionro Iims raiicrlit him flint it is unsafe to do so; and it is judgement sound to decline all overtures that in volve only worry and anxiety, with the chances largely in the majority of losing the account in the end. It is no wonder, then that commer cial agencies and protective unions are necessary in guarding commercial interests. The guardianship of prop erty has become a very much greater science than the sale of it, and the problem with prudent business houses js, not how much can be sold, but what can be made to bring a sum quivalent While there are many who keep .1. . l'i S 1 .1 ineir crsuit gooa y promptly paying their account when due, there are some who at the last moment ask for extensions, or more still, take the ex tension without asking, necessitating a reminder from the dealer who has kindly favored them with the use of bis capital. When a number of the latter class unexpectedly precipitate themselves upon the house accommo dating them with an agreed term of credit, embarrassment follows, and necessity alone compels the adoption of rigid measures for collection. No house, no matter what its capi tal, can successfully transact business with a loose system of credit. A ledg er full of easy and careless buyers will in time swamp any concern. The woods are full of good fellows who really intend to pay, but fail to do it. goods supplied to such patrons can be renewed on. the same kind of currency, viz: promises, the inevitable result of this style of trade will be commercial Buin.. California capital has put upon the falls of the Willamette, at Oregon City, the largest paper pulp injli this side the Ohio river-. Oregon City: will, be the Lowell of this coast, says the AUa.. . ANOTHER TRAIN WRECK. Another train wreck has occurred on the east side, this time near Halsey, Linn county.- The Albany Democrat, of Tuesday evening, contains the fol lowing concerning it: "Last night's overland train was going south about two miles this side of Halsey, opposite the farm of W. R. Power, at a speed of about thirty miles au hour, when a cow appeared on the track, standing broadside. It was raining hard and the light was dim, so that the animal was not seen until the train was almost on her. The engineer, John McFadden. immediate ly whistled down breaks. The cow catcher struck the cow in the middle, throwing her to the headlight, from which she bounded again to the track, raising the engine from the wheels and throwing it from the track. This was given by Mr. McFadden to a Democrat man. The engine run across a ditch to an adjoining fence, the tender mashing the engine's cab off, breaking several stopcocks, which sent forth their deadly elements on to the fireman and en gineer. The tender was completely tipped over. A fruit car following, was mashed to pieces and stopped on the opposite side of the engine; the mail car was twisted sideways on the track, but remained up right, the agent,' Mr. Cox, just closing the windows in time to prevent a deluge of hot water and steam from the engine. The baggage car and two Pullman cars jumped the track, the remaining standing on the rails. The fireman, William Ransom, was found between the engine and tender car. dead, being scalded in a frightful manner, and one leg was broken and badly raashud. The engineer was thrown out of the cab to the ground, and was insensible for some time but soon "came to. Oue leg and a hand were sodded, and he was somewhat bruised, but not dangerously injured. The passengers stated that the accident was so sudden and unexpected that it was all over before they were aware of its serious nature. As the cars ran some distance the shock was not great. Conductor Young imme diately sent for wrecking trains and by noon to-day the track was in condition for the passage of trains. The engineer and the body of Ransom were brought to this city on a special train. William Ransom, the deceased fireman, was a man about thirty years of age; his parents residing in the east, and having no relatives in Oregon. He was engaged to a young lady of Eugene and was to be married on the 16th of this month. Mr. Ransom succeeded Quint Guthrie, killed at the train wreck at this city, and the engine was the same one wrecked here, a fact without any signi ficance except to superstitious people."
