The deadly cyclone and the funnel-shaped

now yield the floor to the yellow
fever of the South.

, It has cost the people of Illinois
$30G,7GS to experiment with demo

enough to place that state solidly

It is hard facts like these which

An Oregonian reporter says the

A magazine which soberly dis
cusses the theory that the sun is
losing its heat and the earth is
growing colder, with the result that
the human race shall be finally
frozen out, is attracting some at
tention just now. In view of the
iceless winter and the present ele
vated condition of the mercury, it
will be necessary to put the theory
in a patent ice machine to prevent
it from spoiling.-New West-Echo.
Curious "robberv:" Although
coffee and tea are on the free list,
no change is observed in their
price, especially coffee, while other
articles affected by the "robber
tariff" have universally cheapen
ed. How is this? The parrots
that prate that a "tariff is robbery"
should pause and consider tin's
peculiarity of "robbery" which
makes the things of which the pub
lic is "robbed" cheaper and more
plentiful than the things of which
they are not "robbed." States
man. A good town is one in which the
farmers spend money with the
home merchants, the laborers
spend the money earned with the
local tradesmen; where the feeling
and good will of every citizen is in
sympathy with home industries,
and where every article that can
be made or can be had is bought
of the local dealers. This is the
spirit of reciprocity between busi
ness men and merchants, trades
men, laborers and farmers, and it
makes business lively, the town
prosperous, and above all a pleas

The Jacksonville Times, in men
tioning the fact of Judge Bean
being sworn in and taking his seat
upon the supreme bench, pays its
compliments to Judge Thayer in
this manner: "We are sorry that
Judge Bonham was not the fortu
nate individual: still the great
majority of the people are very
Lappy that Judge Thayer steps
down and out into merited obscu
rity, for he made Oregon's highest
legal tribunal the laughing-stock ol
the judiciary; of other states and a
by-word in the mouths ot all hon

Wm. Wallace! You will only be
thought of with, derision and contempt.'.'
A GOOD A D MINIS TRA TION.
It is announced that President
Harrison Willi be a candidate for
renomination. Ot course he will
be and being nominated will be
elected. He has made a good
president and the second term will
be an improvement on the first.
During the first half of his present
administration, he has made not a
few enemies in his own party by
iiis refusal to act as hastily as they
desired in t he matter of the distri
bution of offices, but it will be seen
before the expiration of his term
of office that he acted so wisely
and fairly that even those whom
he has offended will be willing to
afford him stronger support than
before.
The Cleveland administration
left many questions of serious im
portance to be settled by the Har
rison administration notably the
misunderstanding with Germany
over Samoa, and thev have been
adjusted satisfactorily and credita
bly and with becoming dignity.
A misunderstanding with Eng
land over Behriug sea has arisen
and negotiations are now pending
between representatives of that
and this country. There is not a
person in the United States who
does not believe that the matter
will reach an amicable sett'eraent.
This is because there is such faith
and confidence in the adminis-
m
tration.
President Harrison's administra
tion during his first four years will
not have been a dazzling one, but
will be shown to have been a safe
and dignified one, just such as the
people of this country will want to
have conl i n ued . Tel egram.
The idea that a western city can
not get along without Chinamen
is disproved by Tacoma's experi
ence. There are no better hotels,
restaurants and laundries in the
world than in that city, notwith
standing there is not a Chinaman
within its borders or in the county
in which it is situated. The Globe
observes: '-San Francisco has 21,-
000 Chinamen. Tacoma has not j
one. This city wants a big popu
lation, and is obtaining it with a
rapidity that is astonishing the
world, but it proposes to try and
get along somehow without the
'Heathen Chinee.' "

There died in Washington a few
days since the only man who could
have prevented the assassination
of President Lincoln. His name
wat J. F. Parker and it was his
duty to stand by the door of the
private box in which the presiden
tial party was seated and see that
only those entitled to do so entered
the box. Becoming interested in
the play, he moved off some dis
tance, and J. Wilkes Booth seized
this opportunity to enter the box
and execute 'his murderous pur
pose. Ex.
The silver bill has become a
law not according to the original
provisions, in favor of free-coin-
re but a compromise measure
between this and the ideas of Sec
retary Windom on the question.
We hope this will silence contro
versy on this subject in congress,
and, if the tariff bill was passed,
the people might hope that some
attention would be paid to the
river and harbor bill and the for
feiture measure.-Times-JMountain-eer.
The work of classifying and
adding up the census returns is
done by machinery. The machines
have a keyboard like a typewriter,
and look a great deal like one.
They are operated by girls, and
fifteen girls can count and classify
500,000 names in a day. They re
duce the vast work to an easy me
chanical operation, in which mis
takes are impossible. What a
blessing it would have been could
the count of the population have
been done by machinery.
The New York Press notices
that whenever the democratic par

The Philadelphia Press sums up
the Behring Sea situation editor
ially as follows: Neither the Uni
ted States nor Great Brittain can
alord to run the remotes risk of a
collision over a head of 3,000,000
seals in the Behring's sea. One
day's excited rumor would cost a
hundred fold more than all the
seals in Alaska. The United
States has three paths to secure
its ends. It can prove that open
sea fishing will wipe out the last
surviving herd ot seals in the
world; it can establish a right to
Behring Sea as a "closed sea,"
and it can claim protection for
seals as strayed live-stock, whose
property interests vests in the Uni
tedStates, because they start from
and return to its territor It is
the first duty of the government
to agree or arbitrate.
Nothing is great or small, good
or bad,-exeept by comparison. A
gentleman named Gohn came to
Salem from Johnstown, Pa., some
time ago, but became dissatisfied
and recently returned to that
much-stricken city.

j mg is an extract lrorn his

his letter
after arriving there: "We landed
safe and went to housekeeping
this week. Johnstown looks
rough. ' It don't look like the
same place any more. If I was
br.ck in Oregon again I would
stay. People don't see the dif
ference in the country until they
come back. It costs more for liv
ing here than it does in Oregon.
Bent is higher here and most
things for living are higher. There
will be no fruit here. It makes
my mouth water when I think of
the nice fruit in Oregon."
The prompt action of President
Harrison in signing the new silver
bill is meeting with approbation
on all sides, and the republican
party has reason to congratulate
