The Pennsylvania railroad has or tleied 77 new freight locomotives in the last two months. Gen. Lew Wallace lias invented a steel cross-tie, with which he expects to revolutionize railioad building. ' The people of Corvallis are in earn est about building a system of street railways. The future of that city looks promising. Salem Statesman, inn. JLVLU. John C. Bullit, the eminent lawyer of Philadelphia, has just finished the draft of the largest mortgage ever given in this country the indenture of the Northern Pacific railroad for $160,000,000. ? As the widow of a Mexican war veteran, Mrs. Jefferson Davis is said to be eligible for a pension if she de sires to ask for it. A decision given m a similar case by the pension de partment less than three years ago es tablished a precedent. A woman died in New York recent ly who weighed 700 pounds. A special coffin was built for her, and it required eight strong men to carry the remains to the hearse. She was not a well known or prominent resident, yet an exchange remarks that New York has never sustained a, heavier loss. Ex. Tkev had a common, everyday cy clone in St, Louis on Sunday last and several people were injured. In Kan sas the blizzard was the order of the day. Here in Oregon last week there happened to fall a few inches of snow and every body was "cussing." Now the ground ia all clear and all are liappy. An Albany paper, one day last week, indulged in a little wild talk about the improvements planned for this yeai in that city. It claims that the following will be done: A big hotel, the Oregon 'xacinc car shops, tyrant s 1'ass factory buildings, gas works, electric motor lines, paving of First street, establish ment of a public park, Oregon Pacific offices, many new brick blocks, hun dreds of residences. ?Akmers' institutes are becoming popular in every section of the state. At a meeting held recently at Eugene, ,Professor John D. Letcher, of the ag ricultural college, read a valuable paper on road making. The paper is well worth attention from Oregon's law makers, who may be called upon at the next session of the legislature to revise the road laws. The whole state is suffering from the lack of ordinarily good roads. The discussion of such practical questions will build up the farmers' institute into the affections of the people. Ex. Statistics are valuable and convey much information when properly pre sented, but when incoherently stated as they were by the "short paragraph ia" of the Oregonian the other day j they are confusing to a painful degree. In speaking of a farmer near Scio he says: "He has accumulated about 400 acres of the best land in that part of the country, and has raided three fam ilies," leaving us in anxious ignorance of the average yield of family per acre, or how much of the 400 acres were actually under cultivation when the three ciops were raised. More care should be taken with these agri oultural items. West Shore. ' OREGON'S GOVERNORS- ' The death of Ex-Gov. Geo. L. Woods, removes from life one of Ore gon's most prominent citizens. It also calls to mind the fact that like other pioneers, the ex-governors of this state and. former territory, are passing away. The first governor of the territory of:' Oregon, was George Abernethy, from 1845 to 1849. He was followed by General Joseph Lane, who filled the gubernatorial chair from March to August, 1849. After him came Major John, Gaines, from 1849 to 1853, Gen. Jos.. Lane, March to July, 1853; Geo,. L.. Curry, July to November,. $S53i John W. Davis, November Children Cry for 1853 to August, 1S54; Geo. L. Curry, 1854 to 1859- The state was admitted Februcry 14, 1S59. The state governors were, John Wliiteaker, 1859 1862; Addison C. Gibbs, 1862-1866; G;;o. L. Woods, 1866-1870; Lafayette F, Grover, 1870 1877; S. F. Chad wick, IS77-187S; W. W. Thayer, 1878-18S2 j'Z. F. Moody; 1882-1887; Sylvester Pennoyer, 1887 1891. Of the above, all of tho territorial governors are dead; and of the state executives, Gibbs and Woods have joined the silent majority. Abernethy came to Oregon in 1840, and was one of the originators of the provisional government, which was in force until the organization of the ter ritorial government. General. Joseph Lane was tho Democratic candidate for vice president on the Breckenridge ticket, in i860, and at the opening of the civil war threw his influence in favor of the south. He refrained from taking any active part in tho effort to disunite the republic, and retired to Roseburg, where he died in April, 1881. Governor Gaines died in 1858 and is buried at Salem. Geo. L. Curry died in Portland, July 28, 1878; Gcv. Davis resigned August 5, 1854, and left for his former home in Indi ana, where he subsequently died. Of the state governors, John Whit- akerwas, until recently, collector of in ternal revenue at Portland where he resides; Addison C. Gibbs died in London, England, December 30, 1886; Gov. Woods died in Portland, last week; L. F, Grover practices law in Portland; S. F. Chadwick is a lawyer at Salem; W. W. Thayer has unadorn ed the supreme bench; Z. F. Moody is in business at his home at The Dalles. Of the de.d, Gen. Lane lived the longest. Jle was about 80 at the time of his detui: e, having been born two years after George Washington's death. Abernethy was 70; Gibbs had rounded 61; Davis, GO; Curry, 58; and Gaines, 60; Whiuker is 70; Woods was 59, Moody is 58; Grover is 65; Thayer is 61; Chadwick, 63; the present chief executive is 57, Grover whs the only Oregon gover nor who was elected two terms, but he did not serve them, having been elect ed United States senator, before the close of his second term. Governor Woods, whose death the state regrets., was the only one on the list who had filled the governor's chair in a state and territory. k; loxgxk a terhoh. Modern Treatment That Cures Constipa tion. According to the San Francisco dailies a reme ly has been discovered that with almost un erring certainty overcomes constipation. It is the now laxative princlplo in Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparllla. The papers are full of recent oc currences confirming its efficiency, and we give plftoo to their last sensation, a card from San Francisco's well known lady manicure. She says: " I am willing to relate the following ex perience. I bare for years had a weak stomach attended with constipation, and never found but one preparation that helped mo aud that soon wore out and lost its effect, and I was again a sufferer till I tried Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla. It helped me in every way and has thoroughly reorganized me. I had one of the most sensative of stomachs and was in continual distress, but can with the aid of Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparills now cat any aud everything with my old ac customed freedom without any evil effects. I an both surprised and delighted, and gladly recom mend it." ' Cla.ua. Melvix, Manicure, 126 Kearney street, B. F. Edison prophesies that twenty- five years hence electricity will have superseded horse power, and the horse will become a luxury, a toy and a pet. THE GRAVE GETS TIRED YAWNING, Seemingly, for certain wretched invalids who toddle feebly along, though always looking as if they were going o die, but omitting to do it. They dry up, wither, dwindle away finally, but in the meantime never having robust health, know nothing of the physical enjoyment, the zest of that existence to which they cling with such re markable tenacity. They are always to be found trjing to mend by tinkering at them selves with some trashy remedy, tonic, or "pick me up" to give a fillip to digestion, or "help the live-." If such misguided folks would resort and adhere to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters it would be well with them. This superb invigorant supplies the stamina that the feeble require, by perma nently reinf-ireing digestion and assimila tion. It overcomes nervousness, insomnia, malaria, kidney complaints, biliousness, constipation, rheumatism and neuralgia. Send ix Your Orders.

At the time of his death he was the largest land owner in the slate, with a homestead of 25,000 acres of rich savanna lands and 165,000 acres of mountain land in I'ickeus and Oconee counties. For the last fifty years he led the life of a hermit, devoting himself exclusively to the increase of his estate.

Effect marvellous. Saved his life. Cured by Cuticura Our oldest clild, now six shears of age, when an infant six months old was attacked with a virulent, malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies failing we calle.il 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, fiom 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 adyise.d to try the Cuticura Reme dies. The eifect was simply marvellous. In three or four weeks a complete cure was wrought, leaving the little fellow's person as white aud healthy as though he had never been attacked. In my opinion, your valuable remedies saved his life, and to-day no is a strong, healahy child, perfactly well, no repetition ot the disease having ever oc curred. GEO. B. SMITH.
