Thus far little objection has been de veloped in the north, but the demo cratic press of the south has not hesi tated to make known its opposition. This shows where the shoe pinches. The plan proposed seeks to secure an honest election in every precinct, and is not intended to affect the rights cf any lawful voter. The truth is the solid south does not want an honest vote. It does not want to give the government an oppor tunity to know the actual stale of affairs Mjxler which a majority is main tained at the will of a few leaders. The Mississippi plan of firing can nons and musketry in each town on election day to warn the colored re publican majority to keep away from the polls is a modern method of ex pressing the wi'l of the people through the ballot box. Other methods equally effective in results are practiced in ether states. Many of the southern papers claim that it would be unwise to discard the old and well established system ol voting, which are entirely satisfactory to the people. If these systems are wise and honest, no one will be injured by having a government official, present as a mere looker-on while the ballots are being cast and counted. Govern ment tiupervis'ou can not change Je suits when honest elections are held. If this is the case, why should any one oppose the proposed federal plan of elections'? Is it because the elec tions in some parts at the country are not honestly conducted? Do the op ponents now seek to shield dishonesty by opposing the passage cf a law which is aalculatedto guard the ballot box from all forms of dishonesty The perpetuity of the republican form of government depends largely upon the purity 4f the ballot. The principles of true democracy must be maintained to the extent that very elector shall have the privilege of casting Ins ballot and having it counted as he cast it. The will of the majority 'emanating from the conscience and judgment of the people should be the abiding la v to guide the administration of govern mental affairs. As the popular franchise is the only way in which the people can give ex pression of their views on govern mental affairs, every ballot should Iiave its full weight in shaping the policy of the affairs of the nation. With a view only to making every vote cany its full weight and influence the government should supervise the franchise of the people. It is now known that United States exports for October will exceed $90, 000,000. This amount has only been exceeded three times in the entire his tory of the country, and those months were separated by periods of two years. Exports were $98,000,000 in in December, 1S80; $93,000,000 in December, 1882; $91,000,000 in De ceiuber, 1884. A significant fact is, these dates were all under a republican administration. Hon. J. T. Gregg, of Saiem, has been selected by L. T. Barin. the new U. S. marshal for Oregon, as his chief deputy. This is a good seletion. Mr. Gregg acted as clerk for Mr. Barin while he was chairman of the republi can state committee in '8S. About the mot needful "job" that should be done in Corvallis is to have, what is known as the city hall, en tirely remodeled. As it now stands it is not fit to be called a barn. Theee was 600,000 worth of build ing done in OreSou City in 1889 $400,000 of it being in mills alone. No doubt this year will see still laeger improvements in the falls city. The Oregon City Enterprise le gan the new year with a new style and dress, being now an 8 column folio. THEhuilding season of 1890 in Cor vallis will be the liveliest of any past one. Remember this.

A repetition of this may be 6een every day at the Stock Ex change, and it is technically known as " arbitrage broking." Arbitrage bro- kers are those who make a business of buying in one market and selling in same just across the street, we can another always at an advantage, how-' sver, unless the fickle goddess is sulky m and unwilling to he appeased.

Private wires, either owned or leased, connect the principal exchanges, and private operators, who t know the market as thoroughly as do i...i t !,. r,Ai , keys. On the table in front of the ticker are small piles of paper slips, three by four inches, and differently colored. Each tint represents a differ ent stock, and the price in cabalistic signs is marked on the appropriate slip, thus obviating the writing of a message, however short. As quickly as a sale or purchase is completed the fact is wired to the receiving operator, who marks the sign on the slip, which is rapidly taken by a messenger to the other broker. A glance, the trans action is completed, and the crumbled slip falls to the floor unintelligible' to the other broker, and is tossed about unappreciated, though it may have been the messenger of fortunes. These messages are being constantly sent to and fro, as many as twenty being received and dispatched in one minute, and near the closing of the sessions the floor of the Stock Exchange is parti colored with these tinted slips. But these dealings are not confined to any two exchanges. The Bourse, in Paris; Exchange Place, in London; the Vien na and Berlin Bourses, as well a3 the Stock Exchanges at Philadelphia, Bos ton, Baltimore and Chicago are in telegraphic communication with the New York exchanges, and many of the members of the last have either branch houses or correspondents in one or more of the former places. To bo able to realize to what extent this branch plays in the daily business of an ex change, it may be stated that more than five hundred wires run into the New York Exchange, most of which do service to arbitrage brokers. One fine in this city transacts con siderable (foreign arbitrage broking. As the London market closes about the opening hour for exchanges on this con tinent, to be ablo to know the strength of it and play successfully here is a financial advantage of considerable ef fect. This branch of the brokerage business is used by some firms to coun teract exchange and prevent the loss entailed by redeeming foreign eoin at a higher figure than is commercially al lowed. Chicago Journal. Dangers in Married Life. The number of divorces and separa tions occurring in different periods of married life tells its own story plainly, clearly. The blending of two lives, the harmonizing of two different temperaments, the adjustment of per sonal incompatibilities in marriage ia a thing of time. In true love-ma.r riages the parties have, at least, a good start, and it counts for much in favor of happiness. But, even in marriage of love, based on esteem, there is more or less of disillusion, especially, perhaps,' to the wife, and, when the glamor is gone, danger to the family begins. It is then that the sense of duty is all in all to the wedded pair. If they remember for a while that, in marriage, lovo is a sworn duty, they will, by and by, have less need to re member it. The first five years of marriage are dangerous; the second lustrum is still more dangerous; and the moral rents and strains which lead to subsequent disaster are apt to take place during those first ten peril ous years. As time goes, on, the danger lessens, and, perhaps, we may believe that happiness, more real, if less exuberant and . buoyant, is in creased. The last years of married life are, probably, the best. Even the last years of marriage, as the French statistics show, may end in turmoil, but not, we think, unless there has been'turmoil all along. The habit of happiness and peace is not likely to l. l i . .. r v : i i uc uivkcu ujj mirei biiirtjr jrcar vi j dutiful behavior. The Churchman Pitcher's Castorla. MOTHERS!

All ordinary remedies failing we called our family physician, who attempted to cure it; but it spread with almost incredible rapidity, until the lower portion of the little fellow's person, from the middle of his back down to his knees, was one solid rash, ugly, painful, blotched, and malicious. We had no rest at night, no peace by day. Finally, we were advised to try the Cuticura Hemk Di ks. The effect . was simply marvellous. In three or four weeks a complete cure was wrought, leaving the little fellow's person ts white and healthy ns though he had never been attacked.

As a last resort, I de termined to try the Cuticura llEMcniE.?, and am happy to say they did all that I could wish.
