Of this 215 cars were loaded with dried fruit; 150 held wine and brandy; 120 lield canned and pickled salmon, and 150 were full of beans; wool and quicksilver were also repre sented. In return we got about 5,000 carloads of stuff that we eught to mostly produce ourselves: cloth, provisions, hardware, etc.. that should be produced cheaper and better oa this sunset slope. Such things as prints, calicoes, dress goods, fine hardware, etc., can be bought cheaper than we can make them, but all we can put in our mouths and much of what we daily use can be produc ed here under better economic con ditions than those which now pre rail. The governor has appointed Mr. Tim Davenport, of Silverton, member of the board of regents of the State Agricultural college. This appointment is in accordance with the governor's idea of placing the farmer's college in control of farmers. Mr. Davenport is a pi oneer Oregon republican and has of late years been particularly ac tive in support of Governor Pen- nover's political aspirations. lie has the ability to make a valuable member of the board of regents tho' his appointment will not be apt to particularly gratify either republicans or democrats. Jour nal. An exchange says: "A casual glance at a newspaper will show a list of men who helped build up the town. If you see a good-siz eJ live advertisement in the paper by . each of the principal mer ehants, and a card from each of the small onesryou need not in quire of the prosperity of the town --:iTS'Solid. Butifyou find the most extensive, merchants not ad vertising their business, then you set it down as a fact that those who do try to push- their business and the town with its interests, have hard time and an uphill journey all the year round." m all calculations about the presidential election it would be well to bear in mind that the elec toral vote in 1892 will be the same as it was in 1888, with the addi uon oi the votes ot the six new states' that have been admitted into the Union, since the election of that year, namely, Washington Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho The electoral vote ot these states amounts to 19, which, added to 401, the number of votes in 18S8, gives 420 a3 the vote in 1892, of which 211 will be the required majority. Fob four months in the year but ter here brings at retail 25 cents pGund: for other four months 30 cents is paid, and during the re maining lour months 60 cents is paid, ana during the remaining four'' months 35 cents. There is money in it. Every year less and less of this article that every one uses is brought from Iowa, but some is still imported from there and a great deal is brought from California. Under proper condi tions there need not be a pound of butter brought or bought here out side' the limits of Clatsop, Pacific and Wahkiakum counties. Ex. eETOJf is California s new re publican senator. lie is probably S3 eood and able a man as tire other candidates wlioaveceived any number "of votes. But Oregon will continue to be head and shou ders in the lead so far "as the Pa eific coast representation in the up ggr house goes. Statesman. EASTERN PKESUMPTION. It seems to be ingrained in the minds of eastern people tliat no one west of the Alleghanies pos sesses either brains or information enough to judge correctly of politi cal questions. They have a self sufficient way of alluding to "west ern ignorance" which is sometimes musing and sometimes exasperat- ng. i ne latest exhibition ot this self sufficiency was made by Presi dent Eliot of Harvard University in speech at the Mercantile Ex- hange in St. Louis on Monday. He told tle merchants that "the West is subject to that which we in the east are not Sudden waves of mis- nformed public opinion. Those in control should be properly inform ed. They should bo taught the true doctrine vear bv year. You must relieve the minds of the peo ple. in this western country of lese erroneous ideas." This speech happened to be or the ex asperating kind. The calm as sumption of superior knowledge for the east and the cool reference to the erroneous ideas-of the west. was too much for the audience, and the dissatisfaction was so manifest that President Eliot left the hall without waiting to be in troduced to the merchants. The audience is not wholly to be blam ed in the mattev'. During the whole of the recent discussion in esrard to the financial system of the country, (here has been a pre tense oi the part of the eastern bankers and gold men thai they alone knew anvthins of the sub ject and that the western people were too ignorant to talk about it. he claim of such superiority of knowledge has not the slightest foundation to rest upon. It is not n the east alone that there are earned universities or careful students of economic topics, nor do the people of that section pos sess all the wisdom of the coun try. They seem in fact to be the most ignorant in the Union, for thev are ignorant of the kind of men and civilization which have grown up in the west, and which make it what it is. Every now and then sone display of this ig norance is made in regard to the western states and the Pacific coast, xhe matter is generally more amusing than annoying, but the east had better get rid of its own erroneous ideas before it talks so wisely of "waves of misinform ed public opinion that flood the west." San Jose Mercury. The Philadelphia Press pub ishes letters from a score of sen ators as to the preference of their states for president, in both par ties. Blaine is the favorite for the republican and Cleveland for the democratic nomination. Senator Dolph writing in regard to Oregon, says: "In reply to your question with regard to the preference of political parties in Oregon to the presidential nomination for 1S92, would say that Secretary Blaine has for many years been a favorite candidate upon the Pacific coast. If he were to be a candidate for the presidential nomination in 18321 have little doubt that a majority of the republicans in the state I represent would- very strongly favor his nomination. Governor D: B. Hill, of New York has some warm admirers among the democrats in the state of Ore gon, but now that he is wholly out ot the presidetial race by his ac ceptance ot the United States sen- atorship from New York, I think, from all the expressions I have heard in-regard to the matter from the democrats of my state, that a majority of the democratic party would favor the nomination of ex President Cleveland." Old Tippo Tib, the uncertain Af rican spectre who has been a slave dealer, canibal and general terror by turns, is reported to be paralyz ed. . According to some authorities- the people of Oregon are not roll :ing stones. Ex.- - ' . TOLEDO NOTES. The Toledo Mill Co. have sold one-half interest in the large saw mill to Messrs. Logan and Hooker. Soon we shall hear the busy hum of the mill again. Many of the citizens of this place attended the ball at Yaqnina City last evening. All returned home sober on the morning, train and say they enjoyed themselves fine. Mr. E. W. Durkee, merchant of Chitvvood, spent two days here last week and bought quite a stock of goods of Mrs. Copeland who is selling goods very cheap for cash. B. F. Jones has gone to Port land on important business we un derstand. The entertainment given by Mr. Bethers pupils ot "The Last Loaf" was highly appreciated by a large audience. Violet. March 18, 1891. In comparison; with the recent dignified session of the Oregon legislature, the following exciting scene which occurred in the Cali fornia assembly Friday evening will appear a trifle outre to people of this state. Bruner arose to a question of personal privilege, and denounced Bledsoe for giving a majority report of the investigat ing committee to newspaper re porters before it had been present ed to and received by the assembly. Bruner moved to tears and finally sat down, crying like a child. In a moment his desk was surround ed by a score of members. Bledsoe" sat in his chair and was approach ed by Low, of Santa Clara, Bruner's special friend and cham pion. He pointed to where Bruner sat and exclaimed, "That's your work, damn you." Bledsoe ap parently fearing a personal attack, ran back to the farthest corner of the chamber and begged other members to protect him. Low's frjends now rushed in and dragged him from the crowd. During all this time the greatest confusion prevailed. Several ladies were borne from the chamber in a faint ing condition. Such scenes might be expected of a freshmen's de bating society, but not of dignified legislators. $50,000 for the Botkin impeach ment, $150,000 for state printer, and not a cent for the World's Fair. This is alliance reform leg islation", says a Kansas exchange. Lawrence Barrett, the eminent tragedian, died in New York City last week of heart failure. He has been suffering several days with a severe cold. He. was 53 years old and. leaves a wife and two daughters. The Louisiana State Lottery has located in Montreal, and the Can adian postal authorities promise to co-operate with this government in preventing it from using the mails for illegal purposes. That is reciprocity after alfr, remarks the Chicago Inter-Ocean. A consignment of Oregon flour, the first ever brought here, came down from Portland on the Geo. Hi Chance. Marshfield Sun. Think of, that! No Oregon flour ever be fore consumed in such a section of the state, rich, beyond description in resources! The same is almost true of nearly all the coast of Ore gou. San Francisco is their mar ket. They only come to Oregon when sent to the penitentiary, asy lum or legislature. TnErFarm-and Fireside of Spring field, Ohio, says: "It is a note worthy fact that while all the old reliable farm journals are in hearty sympathy with the farmer's move men t, very- few of them advocate the two schemes of government loans of paper money on lands and on farm products. A number of litem are warning the farmers that the movement will be wrecked if these schemes are not abandoned "WaiA.

My di sense (psoriasis) first broke onfc on my left cheek, spreading across my nose, and almost covering my face. It ran into my eyes, and the physician was afraid I would lose my eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head, and my hair all fell out until I was entirely bald-headed; it then br ke out on my arms and shoul ders, until my arms were just one sore. It covered Jny entire body, my face, head and shoulders being the worst. The white scabs fell constantly from my head shoulders and arms; the skin would thicken and be red and very itchy, and would crack and bleed if scratched. After spending many hundreds of dollars, I was pronounced incurable. . I heard of the Cuti cura Remedies', and after uaiug two bottles Cuticura Hesolvent, I could see a change; and after I had taken four hiittles I was al most cured; and when I had used six bottles of Cuticura Hesolvent, one box of Cuti cura, and one cake of Cuticura Soap, I ws cured of the dreadful disease from which I h;id suffered for live years I can not express with a pen what I suffered be fore using the Remedies. They saved my life and I feel it my duty to recommend them. My hair is restored as good as ever, and so is my eyesight. MRS. ROSA KELLY, Rockwell City, Iowa. Cuticura Resohent.
