of the Northern Pacific railroad for

? As the widow of a Mexican war
veteran, Mrs. Jefferson Davis is said
to be eligible for a pension if she de

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.

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." '

Edison prophesies that twenty-
five years hence electricity will
have superseded horse power, and
the horse will become a luxury, a

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.

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.
