If so, fet them speak out One sheet of paper recently made wan eight feet wide and seven aid three-quarters miles long. It is estimated, by the Enterprise, Chat the damage done by -the flood of two weeks -ago in Oregon City will ex ceed $154,000. THERE Is a man in New York who makes a comfortable living by going with a whisk broom and bag gathering up oats that horses scatter about their noon eating places in the Btreets. Election day is getting nearer and nearer. So far but little is said con cerning the . nominations that tire to he made by either party. It is .about time that something is being done. Immigration will flood in upon the northwest in the coming sprina; and summer. Perhaps the best indications of this influx is the Met that the North ern Pacific will run two trains daily between St. Paul and Washington points during this season. The veteran journalist, Erastus Brooks, says that he has -seen 120 daily newspapers established in New York, and of these only six are now in existence. He estimates that $25, 00,000 has been sunk during that time upon daily nwspjers. Down at Tillamook they jiavc a new obstruction in their bay, accord ihg to the following which is clipped from the Headlight: "A petition has been signed by the steamboat men coming into this place, asking that the wilier of the'old scow that lies across the channel just below town, be removed It should be done at once, as it is a dan gerous obstruction to navigation, and if left until it breaks up is apt to do a great deal of danr.age to shipping." FARMERS' INTERESTS Are farmers' interests as jealously guarded in legislative halls as other in terests! Manifestly not. And the worst of it is, the farmers themselves are to blame for it. In the first place, they are not properly represented in Hie legislature; that is. too few of the representatives are interested directly or indirectly in agriculture. It is the fault of the farmers themselves that they do not select, vote for, and elect men who will jealously guard their in terests. Then, again, farmers re en tirely toov indifferent to what is going en in the legislature when it is in ses sion. Bills are introduced, discussed, passed, become laws, and go into effect before they realize what has been done. Bven the legislatures, constituted as they are at present with few farmer members,- would do much better if the farmers wold interest themselves more m looking after them. A DEMOCRAT IS A FREE. TRADER. It is beginning to liea recognized fact that a "protection democrat" is an impossibility.1 It having been . an nounced that a gentlemen who is not a thorough going tree trader was about to contest the nomination for United States senator from Missouri, tfejf St. Louis Republic, the democratic organ of the west, is moved to say that "there is and can be no such thing as a protection democrat It is a contra diction in terms, precisely as it would be to speak cf an ipfidel christian." This is plain and outspoken,' and ex presses the real sentiments of the leaders of the party. A few years ago the free traders who are now ruling the democracy with a rod of iron were willing to allow the impression to go abroad that a person could be a demo erat anda protectionist at one and the same tim. That was when the free traders did not wish to give too violent a shock to the protection sentiment that still existed in the party. It! L. Taylor, the barber, now shaves for 15 cents. THE TRUE REASON. Democratic free-trade papers; in speaking of th.3 decline of American shippins, never fail to attribute the same to the protective tariff. The San and will be found again by the Francisco Call correctly shows that archaeologists of a future date the tariff was not the cause, but that;among Ul0 remajns 0f our own the dechne was due chiefly to the ex- culture The children of Pompeii pulsion of our ships from the ocean- trnndll hnnr by rebel cruisers. The crniseis that drove our commerce from the sea were hnilf in Rririsli tmrts liv 'British moiev. . manned by British seamen, and sailed on which de in our young under the rebel flag. For four years jdays is not a lineal descendant of shipers in American bottomsad to. that proud charger into whose pay war risks They could not afford j wooden flanks the children of to do so, and in consequence, British : and other foreign, vessels gradually got the carrying trade into their possession.

In 1865, when the war ended, sn attempt was made to build American steam trs for the transatlantic trade. But prices of labor 4and materials in this country were still keyed up to the pitch caused by the 'paper-money issue; it cost a fortuue to build a first-class passenger steamer. And as soon as'it became known in England that American ship builders were about to go to . work again, the British government, which had allowed its steamship subsidies to run down during the war, immediately fell to increasing them. They were increased nearly 40 per cent in 1866. In 1870 we followed suit with a sub sidy to the Pacific Mail. England countered by incseasing hr appropria tions in aid of the mercantile navv to $6,000,000 a year, and we abandoned the contest Great Britain made no secret of her purpose to hold the car rying trade of the world at any cost, and the United States meekly sub mitted to be ruled out France made a bid for a share in 1881, and Ger many followed suit in 1888, with sub sidies of $3,000 000 a year to ocean steamers. We let the trade take care of itself. It was this, and not the tariff, which crused the disappearance of the American flag from the ocean. The consideration of those v ho think that the government should m.n -age the railways and telegraph of the country is gntly directed to the "man agement" of the mail in the recent blockade. 18 there anything of merit in such management to wanant the laying of additional burdens of public nature and private duty upon the "governmentl" m i A WOKD Off CAUTION.

The doll is thousands of years oldj it has . been found, inside the graves of little Roman children, just as you and I did; and who knows whether the rocking horse Francis I.'s time dug their spurs. The drum is also indestructible, and setting time at naught across the centuries, it beats the Chiist- ... . arms to weild the drumsticks, and grown-up people's ears to be deaf ened by the sound thereof. The tin soldier views the future with calm; fie will not lay down his arms until the dajj of general dis armament, and there is, as yet, no prospect of a universal pea?e. The toy sword also stands its ground; it is the nursery symbol of the ineradicable vice of our race the lust, for battle. .Harlequins, fool's cap crowned and bell-ring ing, are also likely to endure; they are sure to be found among the members of the toy world as long as there "are fools to be found among the inhabitants of our own. Gold-laced knights, their swords at their skies, curly-locked and satin-shod princesses, ptalwart musketeers, mustached and top booted, are all types which still hold their own. The Chinese doll is young as yet, but she has a bril liant future before her. Black wood's Magazine. Scratched 28 Years. Body overed with scales. Itching terrible. Sufl'eriii endless ' No relief.

CO (two-hundred dollars) and an immense amount of suffering. My dis ease (psriisia) commenced on my hed in a xpot not larger than a cent. It ; spread rapidly all over my body and got under my nails. The scales would drop off of me all the time, and my suffering was endless and without relief. One thousand dollars would not tempt me to have this disease over ayain. I am a poor man lint feel rich to lie relibved of what some of the doctors said was leprosy, some ringworm, psoriasis, etc. I took . . . and . .. Sarsaparillas over one year and a half, but no cure. I cannot praise the Cuticura Kemedies too much. They have made my skin as clear and free from scales as a baby's. All I used of them were three boxes of CuTIcURA, and -three bottles of i'uticuka Resolvknt, and two ckes of Cuticura Soap. If you had been hern ami said you would have cured me for $200.00, you would have had the money. I looked like the picture in your hook of psoriasis (picture number two, "How to Cure Skin diseases"), but now I am as clear as any person ever was. Through force of habit I rnb my hands over my arms and legs to scratch once in a white, but to no purpose. I am all well. I scratched twenty eiyht years, and it got to be a kind of second nature to me. I thank you a thousand times. DKNNIS DOWNING. Waterbtiry, Vt. Cuticura Resolvent. .
