. The Dallas News says it will be
just like George Francis Train to
keep running round the earth now
until he is taken for another
equator.
There are about a thousand elk
killed in Oregon and Washington
every year, the antlers from most
of which are sent to England for
ornaments.
Corvallis is the latest town in
Oregon to wear the metropolitan
airs that accompany the first run
ning of cars through the streets.
Independence and Monmouth are
next in line with a motor line.
Statesman.
There is evidently a band of
hostile Indians abroad in the
Southwest. Ten cowboys were
murdered in New Mexico a few
days ago. The red outlaws should
be captured at once and disposed
of beyond the power to do further
damage.
The Mexican people in Lower
California ara very uneasy over
the reports of a filibustering inva
sion from the north. They are not
anxious for a change of govern
ment, and will have none of the
grandiloquent constitution of the
filibusters. San Jose Mercury.
The tenacity with which the
Chinese cling to their attempt
of the evasion of our laws is some
thing remarkable. With the
chances ot capture almost certain,
they still keep on trying to cross
the Mexican border. Congress
should do something at once to
stop this smuggling traffic.
Mrs. Woodworth, the Oakland
celebrity whose prophecy of a
tidal wave did not come true, went
to St. Louis where she is preaching
several sorts of disaster impending
over that devoted city. Some St.
Louis citizens grew tired on last
Monday and demolished Mrs.
Woodworth's tent, deeming herself
a worse affliction than any she
foretold.
Minneapolis and St. Paul are
letting ther rivalry outgrow their
civic discretion in the matter of
the census. Some Minneapolis
census-takers have been kidknapp
ed and their jjapers stolen by some
St. Paul citizens. The exasperated
Minneapolitans declare that they
will work to have the state capital
taken away from St. Paul. These
two cities will never live in liar-
0
mony until they marry and become
one.
Amid all the talk relative to the
railroad situation it must be re
membered that no note ot discour
agement need ensue. It is but
the common experience; the usual
thing; whether it be Astoria or
New York, a local affair or a Van
derbilt, the construction of a rail
road is always a period of delay,
complications, and settling of ar
rangements, that takes time, and
time only, to straighten out. As
torian. The business community, says
the New York Tribune, may not
agree on the tariff question, but it
is harmonious in its hostility to a
renewal of tariff agitation another
3?ear. If the present congress pass
es the McKinley bill, there will be
no more tariff legislation for ten
years, provided the republican par
ty remains in power. The election
of a democratic house will be fol-
l&wed by a speedy renewal of tarifl
agitation and the continuance of
business uncertainty; There can
be no stronger argument than this
for influencing practical business
men to secure in November the
election of. a republican house.
Children Cry for
r
EIGHTEEN NINETY-TWO.
The result in thirty-nine of the
forty-four states in 1S92 can as
well be told now as later, says the
Cleveland Leader. They will vote
as they did in 1S88. The doubtful
states are New York, New Jersey.
Indiana, Connecticut and W est
Virginia. New Jersey would not
be doubtful were it not for the fact
that huge frauds were perpetrated
in Jersey City to throw her votes
for Cleveland in 1S88. On an hon
est vote and count the fight would
be close and the result doubtful.
Without any of these states the
republicans will have 201 electoral
votes in 1S92, or ten less than a
majority. Indiana, which gave
Harrison a plurality of 3.392
would be enough. New
York, which gave Harrison 13,074
plurality, would be a good deal
more than enough. Connecticut
and West Virginia, which gave
Cleveland 33G and 50G plurality
respectively in 18SS would togeth
er supply the ten votes lacking and
two to spare. There are, there-
tore, three separate and wholly
independent combinations without
New Jersey, any one of which
would enable the lepublicans to
win in 1892, and every one of them
is hopeful. The democrats have
only one winning chance before
them. They must carry the solid
South, New York and Indiana, or
lose.
A good deal of satisfaction has
been expressed in Oregon, in the
work of congress, because of the
liberal appropriations secured in
committee, and passed by the
house in favor of the improvement
of our rivers and harbors. The
bill is now before the senate, and
the items for Oregon have either
been maintained or increased in
committee, which if passed, will be
subjected to a conference between
the two houses when the whole
matter will be beset with danger.
There seems to be a feeling devel
oping that the aggregate appropri
ation(about $25,000,000), is much
too large, and an effort is likely to
be made to cut it down to meet
the views of eastern members.
When the work of cutting down
begins the items for Oregon will
probably prove objective points of
attack. There is no room to doubt
the earnestness of any of the mem
bers from Oregon in defending the
claims of the state, for which they
will continue to fight until the fate
of the bill is decided. Eugene

land is getting down pretly nearly
to the level of the average pessi
mistic democratic editor. His last
reported utterance is: "Point me
out a public building in the Uni
ted States that has not a steal in

many of his own acts. He ap
proved fully the average number
of public building bills.

SIL VER IN THE SENA TE.
The senate has given the country
a surprise in the shape in which it
passed the silver bill. It has pro
vided for the free coinage of silver
and refused to agree to the house
limitations upon the amount to be
coined.
By the senate bill it is provided
that from and after the date of the
passage of the act the unit of value
in the United States shall be the
dollar. This may be coined of
412 grains of standard silver or
25 8-10 of standard gold, said coins
to be equally legal tender for
debts, public or private. Any
owner of silver or gold bullion may
deposit it at any mint in the Uni
ted States to be formed into stand
ard dollars or bars for his benefit
without charge, but it shall be law
ful to refuse any deposit of less
value than $100, or any bullion so
base as to be unsuitable for opera
tions of the mint. It is also pro
vided that silver and gold certifi
cates shall be issued which shall
be redeemable in coin and which
shall be receivable as legal tender
for the payment of all public and
private debts.
It is not probable that the house
will agree with the senate depart
ures from its bill. The differences
are too radical to be adjusted in
that way. The house may, how
ever, be disposed lo greater liber
ality in its final dealing with the
subject in view of the senate's attitude-
In the conference commit
tee the two bills will be harmo
nized and blended into a measure
which all but the most extreme
advocates of silver coinage will be
satisfied to accept. San Jose Mer
