Draixo the first month of '91
there went east 2,000 carloads .of
Pacific coast produce. 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

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

ehants, and a card from each of
the small onesryou need not in

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.

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."

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.

The Louisiana State Lottery has

of, that! No Oregon flour ever be

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.

DREADFUL PSOBIASIS
Covering Entire Body with White
Scales. Suffering Fearful.
Cured by Cuticura.
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.
