Bnsh, the chair man. Eight years ago it took a letter over one hundred days to go around the globe. Now the circuit can be made in 70 days. In 1880, Oregon's population, ac cording to the federal census, was 174,358. This year's figures will ap proximate 300,000. It is rumored that C. B. Crosno will he a candidate for the nomination 'of county clerk on the republican ticket art the coming convention. , John Jacob Astok, a grandson of tie original John, died inlw York en Saturday. He was 65;ears old and was worth $200,000,009. It, is feared the back water of the Columbia about next June will cause a greater flood iu Portland than tho one "enjoyed" there during the first of this month. Th last grand jury of the Mnrion county circuit court investigated the workings of the state insane asylum near Salem and, excepting the in mates, everything is sane. In the year 1700 there was but one newspaper in the United States. In 1870 there were 5,871; this year there are 16,319, the total for the United States and Canada being 17,107. Th democratic representatives in the house of congress have had a hard time trying to swallow Tom. Rfed's manner of reading the law to them, But they, after considerable loud talk, k fcad-jto succumb. . Let republicans be up and doing. A hew set of county officers are to be eleeted this time from state senator down to coroner. The republican state officers are all right providing competent men are nominated. Thomas Graham's term as school director for this district will soon ex pire.- The school election for a direc tor and clerk occurs next Monday. Mr. Graham should be re-elected; heH has made a faithful officer in this po sition. A contemporary claims the demo crats "are almost certain of victory" in this county at the coming election Indeed! J. P. Irish once spoke about the demociatic party being certain of victory in Oregon but it was left by nearly 7,000. The Chemical bank of New York declares a dividend of 2j per cent monthly, or 300 per cent annually The par value is $100 per share Capital, $300,000. Surplus $6,052,- 900. The last sale of stock brought 4,500 per share. In Mexico they have a way of deal ihg with physicians that could well be adopted in this country. After a young doctor has practiced two years they make au inventoiy of his patients. and if he has cured more than he has killed they recognize nim, no matter whether he has a diploma or not. Chicago gets the world's fair of 1892, by a vote of 157 in the house of congress on Mondav. It was on the eighth ballot taken. The number nec ssary lor a cnoice was ioj. .New York had 107, St. Louis 25, and Washington 18. Hurrah for the western city. The fair will be Amer fcan. An Albany paper blurts out again about the Oregon Pacific railroad offices being moved from Corvallis to that city during the coming year. It w safe to say that no person other than the head officers know of the future movements of that company in 1890, and when a paper publishes euch as aertions it simply falsifies. The Southern Pacific is going to ehanseits narrow guage system to a standard width and construct a bridge across the Willamette river at Ray s landing, in Marion conn ty. The east and west side system will then be con soh'dat ?. Kiw them extend their '.!. 'side iie to 'Junciioiv City atwf A W TOR K "HERALD.': If the New York Herald was ever riglit on a question of governmental policy or correct in its predictions oi the result of any policy we never aru of it. Consistently with all its past, it recently got off a large batch of rot in reference to "the substitu- tion by the republican speaker of mohjnmns last week headed 'Forced Out of rule for the rule of law, etc." It talks Business,' referring to the American about the "substitution of violence for j Building and Loan Association of Min for law", and much more silly and Jneapolis, is erronious. The item was meaningless trash. As if a single man .taken from the report of the state bank could be a mob or rule a large minority examiner. The examiner states that by violence. I'in his opinion it is expedient to wind Neither the Herald noi any of its! lk whoso glibly denounce.- Speaker i Reed have ever attempted by a single argument to controvert his position or show wherein he has committed any outrage against ine llglilS OI me minor-. ty. Leading democrats publicly threatened that, the republican ma- oi ity should pever adopt any code of rules contrary to their wishes; that every device of obstruction should be used to prevent any legislation dis tasteful to the minority. The Amer ican people had elected a majority.oi" the house of representatives. Having failed to control by numbers, the dem ocrats proposed to obstruct by factious opposition. Who are the revolution ists? Is this a government to be con trolled bv majorities Or minorities? Is the constitution of the United States the supreme law of the land or are we to to be controlled by a few one horse democratic politicians? Do two and two make four or do they make only two? No less than three or four demo cratic presiding officers in the state legislatures have decided, exactly in regard to how a quorum shall be de termined, as did Speaker Reed. Had he decided any other way he would have violated his oath to support the constitution of the United States. If he decided wrong in a few instances Speaker Carlile and every former Speaker has done so hundreds of times there is no constitutional provisiou nor any common sense reison for mak ing those voting he quorum, instead of those present, unless thera is some j way to compel them to vote if present. There is no more reason for all this democratic howl about oppression than there is for the yelping of coy otes. It is a question ot law and rea son, and not one of precedent. It was the custom for long years for the Sandwich Islanders to eat children. There was a very, long line of prece dents in . favor of its practice. Yet Mark Twain said "that for some rea son the missionaries were opposed to the pn.ct.ice of e ting children, he did not know why, but they were opposed to it." If the missionaries had been democrats they would have sustained the precedent, right or wrong. The more rational and sensible dem- crats are becoming heartily ashamed of their unreasoning clamor and their factious opposition to a righteous and legal ruling, San Jose Mercury. Editorially speaking the Yaquina Republican, in some squibs, says: The chances are that the republicans will nominate new men for the legisla ture in Benton county . . . Some day Benton county will be divided and when that time arrives Toledo will stand an excellent chance of getting the county seat. Her people are figuring ahead on the question . . ..The .republicans on this side of the range are entitled to the state senator, one ot the representatives and a fair portion of the delegates to the state conven tion from the hands.of the county con vention. This would be a a fair divis ion of honors. THE QUESTION SETTLED. - Thli cut it a faithful picture of the well known establishment of Thomas Price & Son, at 624 Sacra mento street, S. F, As the leading chemists of the west, thejr were asked to tettle the question as to what rarsapariUas were in fact purely vegetable. We present their re port. ' We have made earefnl chemical analyses of several well known brands of earsarariila, and have fonud them all with the single exception of Joy's tocontaiu lodideof Potassium. As aresnlt wo are enabled to pronounce Jov's to be tbe only purely vegetable sar-apariUa now on the market, which has come under our observation." Modern medicine ha proven that all ordinary lac eruptions are not caused by diseased blood, but by indigestion and sluggish circulation, which call for vegetable alteratives, instead of mineral blood purifiers like Iodide of Potassium. Jey's Vegetable Sarsapurilla being the latest, is the first to discsr i the old notions ami proceed nuer the modem theory. Its cures attest the soundness of the theory. It is the talk of the hour. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria, When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria, When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria, When she had Children, she gave them Castor' at Children Cry for, THE AMERICAN Ii. & L. A . .The Chicago Klei-Ocean, of the 13th inst., published the following concern ing the American Building and Loan Association, of 'Minneapolis, which will prove interesting to many Corvallis members of the association: "The report published in your coi up the association,' giving as a reason that the amoant of money used for ex- penses exceeds the net earnings by about 6 per cent. At the same time jhe states in a subsequent repurt to a --"i"-rtiai agency mat ine mowy was used lawfully and that there was no irregularity found on the part of the management. This same com- mercial agency reports that the attorney general has the matter under advise ment and that he is not compelled to appoint a receiver unless he is justified in doing so, and if he finds that the association is insolvent. The report, further says: 'We do not leani that the Association has not met its obliga tions or that it has refused to meet any claims which were just and by their conditions due and payable.' It would be well for stockholders to pro tect their claims by fulfilling their part of the contract, not allowing their stock to become delinquent, as, no matter whether a receiver be appointed or not, the entire sum they have paid into the loan fund is, according to the examiner, deposited with the state on first mortgages. The association- is doing business right' along, and there is not one chance in a thousand that the attorney general will take any ac tion in the matter. The officers of the association are in possession of evidence that goes to prove thai a con spiracy has been formed to wreck the association, get possession of the as sets, buy up the member's claims, and clear a cool million. This wrecking business is not aimed at the American alone, but all buildir.g and loan asso ciations that are cutting ?nto the would-be wreckers' business." Scratched 28 Years. Body cveretl with scales. Itching terrible." Suffering endless. No relief. Doctors and medicines fail. Speedily cured by Cuticura at a cost of $5. Cured by Cuticura If had known of the Ccticcra Remb DIKS t jventy eilit years iign it would hve saved-me $200.00 (two-hundred dollars) and an immense amount of suffering. My dis ease (psoriasis) commenced on my hed in a spot not .larger than a cent.' It spread rapidly all over my body and got under my nails. The scales would drop oS of me all the time, and my suffering was endless and without relief. One thousand dollars would uot tempt me to have this disease over again. I am a poor man tint feel rich to be relieved of what some of the doctors said was leprosy, some ringworm, psoriasis, etc. I took ...and ... Sarsaparillas over one year and a half, lint no cure. I cannot praise the Cuticura Remedies 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 Coticora, and three bottles of t'CTicrjEA Hesolvknt, and two cakes of Cuticura Soap. If you had been here and said you would have cured me for 3200.00, 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 rub my hands over my arms and legs to ecratuli once in a while, but to no purpose. I am all well. I scratched twenty eight years, aud it got to be a kind of second nature to me. I thank you a thousand times. DKNNIS DOWNING. Waterbury, Vt Cuticura Resolvent.
