Neably three hundred designs
were sent in to the director of the
mint in response to the invitation
to submit designs for the new sil
ver dollar, half dollar, quarter and
dime. The committee, after care
ful examination, rejected all of
them. Not one possessed sufficient
merit to justify a change from the
present coins.
Tee shipment of fruit from Cali
fornia infected with what is com
monly known as the San Jose scale
bug, is becoming of such frequent
occurrence that a storm of indig
nation is brewing, both in Oregon
and Washington. President Bu
, oey, of the Washington State
Board of Hortioulture, in a recent
order in this connection, said:
"California growers must wipe
from the surface of the oranges
shipped to this state the pest
known as the San Jose scales,
otherwise they will be liable to
arrest and fine of $25 to $100 by
the state fruit inspector." This is
rather a small penalty, but it may
have some effect on California
shippers, and Oregon should now
impose a penalty for the offense.
Oregoniaiv
Notwithstanding its "billion
dollar congress," the republican
administration has succeeded in
perfecting arrangements for con
verting $60,000,000 of its 4 per
cent, bonds, showing the confi
dence of the Nation's creditors in
its financial soundness under the
management of the republican
party and their belief that the cur
rency heresies of the farmers' al
liance and the silver schemes of
the democrats will not be endorsed
by the people. The nations credit
was established by the Avise ad
ministration of its affairs by the
republican, party, and that, too,
nndfer the most disadvantageous
oircumstances of an enormous
debt created' to save it from dis
ruption, and a continuance of this
credit must depend upon . a con
tinuance of the financial policy of
the party that established it.
These- bonds are chiefly held by
National banks as security for the
currency they have issued and
with- which the people are trans
acting business, and are a far bet
ter foundation upon which to base
an issue of paper money than are
turnips and cabbages. Oregonian.
A marvelous device for record
ing both sound and motion has
been invented by Thomas A. Edi
son. The new wonder will be call
ed the "Kineograph," a strange
sounding title to the ear to-day,
but destined perhaps soon to be
come as familiar as locomotive or
telephone. Mr. Edison has been
at work on this newest conception
of his genius for three years. Now
that he know its basic principle
is all right all that remains to be
done is to perfect the details. The
new invention is a combination
machine, in which the phonograph
and the photographic camera work
together. It will reproduce not
only sound, but also a picture of
what passes before it, not a mere
instantaneous impression of ob
jects, but a continuous represen
tation of them for a considerable
space of time. Mr. Edison claims
that his new instrument will re
produce an opera. The phono
graph will render the music and
the photographic apparatus will
reproduce the performers so that
their presence on the stage will be
depicted, every muscle on their
faces will be seen to work, their
strides, movements, all will be true
to nature. To produce this result
it was necessary for the inventor
to be able to take a series of in
stantaneous photographs, follow
ing each other in such quick suc
cession that no lapse of time can
be detected between the impres
sions recorded, and the series of
pictures become in effect but one
continuous picture. Operated by
I an electric motor, his camera will
take forty-six impressions in one
second of time, and in this way the
impressions are recorded so rapidly
that the motions become resolved
into pure motion instead of a series
of jerks. The impressions are re
corded on a long roll of gelatine
paper fastened to a spindle which
passes over a photographic lense.
AN OREGON VALLEY.
Dr. Henry W. Coe, for many
years a prominent citizen of Man
dan, N. D., in a letter written from
Portland, Oregon, says:
The Willamette valley is the
garden spot of the world. The
yield here is simply enormous and
never failing. This whole valley
was no doubt at one time under
water, the ocean water flowing
back with the tides, and in time
the wash of the hills gradually
filled in the valley, ' making the
soil what it is now. If we were
to imagine Puget Sound in say
twenty or thirty thousand years
from- now, after it lias been nar
rowed down to a stream into which
the mountain brooks pour their
contents and flow on to the ocean,
we might perhaps see a country
such as is this valley of the Wil
lamette. As I can't wait for that
to occur, I shall have to remain in
a valley which is already formed.
This valley is closely settled in
some spots, but as a whole it has
not begun to be developed. It is
strange to me to see other and less
favored regions settled during the
past twenty years and this region
so neglected.
In one district in the valley,
within a radius of six miles square
and this radius not half under
the plow, probably not a quarter
Jast year there was paid in more
than $400,000 in gold for its hop
crop alone. The valley as a whole
has not more than from one to three
per cent, under cultivation. It does
not take a large area to make a liv
ing on either. Last year hops were
very high; however. One man
managed to secure one and a three
quarter acres, and from it sold
$2,100 worth of hops.
IMPORTANT APPOINTMENTS.
Governor Pe.anoyer, Tuesday,
appointed Thomas 11. Sheridan, of
Roseburg, as a member of the
state board of equalization, to fill
the vacancy caused by the resigna
tion of John Burnett. W. A.
Sample, of Helix, was also appoint
ed a member of the board of re
gents of the state agricultural col
lege, to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of T. E, Cauthorn .
HARRISON'S ADMINISTItA TION .,
State Senator J. Sloat Fassett, of
New York, has lately given a re
porter of the New York World his
views on the coming struggle for
the presidency in 1892. Like all
presidential campaigns, it is to be
the "most important in the history
of the country." As to the prob
able issues in the next canvass, he
has only to say that until
the country kas had an oppor
tunity of seeing just what the
next house of representatives is
going to do, it is almost to early to
talk about issues. The tariff ques
tion is not going to assume any
such proportions as it did in 188S,
but it is an issue that will never
disappear from our national poli
tics. The silver question will un
doubtedly be brought forward
more emphatically than it ever has
been before, the democratic house
is pledged to take some radical ac
tion on this subject, and it is a
question whether the republican
senate may not be betrayed into
shaking hands with the democratic
on this subject by the silver fanat
ics in its membership. Maritime
supremacy and wide trade rela
tions, under the provisions of the
reciprocity clause in the tariff law,
with South American states and
other foreign countries will un
doubtedly receive more considera
tion than has ever before been
given to the subjects in national
campaigns. As to the chances for
republican success, it should be
understood that the present ad
ministration is .pre-eminently a
working administration. Never
before was so much, so important,
and so brilliant work done in so
many departments in lime of
peace as has been done under the
lead of President Harrison. Mr.
Blaine, in his correspondence with
Brazil, Spain, England, Canada,
and Italy, has added new laurels
to his crown. Mr. Tracy, in the
navy department, is giving us the
finest battle-ships in the world.
Mr. Proctor has won golden opin
ions in the war department and
earned the applause of the nation
for the management of the Indian
war. Attorney-General Miller has
given unprecedented vigor and
efficiency to his department. Sec
retary Noble has conservatively,
but firmly and fairly solved many
vexed questions which his prede-'
cessors shirked and avoided.
Grand old Jerry Rusk has already
given his department an impor
tance and dignity and worth not
anticipated for years, and John
Wannamaker has initiated and
pushed far on their way adminis
trative reforms in the postal ser
vice that will endure to bless the
people for many years. The ac
tual work of Mr. Harrison and his
cabinet honestly placed before the
people will be an unanswerable
campaign document. Then, too,
it must not be forgotten that the
record of the last congress under
republican leadership, acting in
entire accord with and in response
to the wishes of the administra
tion, is one of the most brilliant
in our history. In sixteen months,
under the lead of Thomas B. Reed,
that congress gave us more affirma
tive beneficent legislation upon
more vital questions than the con
gress of sixteen years of demo
cratic control. As these con
current act of administrative ex
cellence running through all de
partments under republican con
trol are brought more and more
clearly home to the people the
chances of republican success ap
proach closer to the solid ground
of certainties.
A census bulletin just issued is
devoted to educational statistics.
From this bulletin it is learned
that Oregon's per cent, of change
in population from 1880 to 1890
was 79.53, while the per cent of
gain in public school enrollment
was 69.23. In Oregon the relation
of sexes in public schools is male
teachers to female teachers nearly
as 10' to 9.6. The enrollment at
night schools iu Oregon is 200. ,
Ahong the cities of the Willam
ette "now displaying push and" en
terprise is Corvallis. It recently
did a big thing in securing a large
wagon factory, has a two mile
street car line, a splendid school
and other institutions within the
last two or three years. With
shipping facilities only equalled by
Albany it is bound to make a good
city. Albany Democrat.
The Democrat is right, Corvallis
has the location and material to
make a live city. Business is be
coming more active and money
more plentiful and it all of our
business men and citizens will
work harmoniously together in all
public undertakings there is no
reason why Corvallis should not
be a live and prosperous city. Al
bany did a big thing for the future
of that city when she let the con
tract for an $83,000 steel bridge to
span the Willamette, and it will
not be a graat while before Corval
lis will do likewise.
TORTURING ECZEMA!

I am sixty-six years old. In August,
18S9, was troubled with the peculiar skin
niuu-ion tri whiVh nprml. nf mv atre are sub-
L I - tj
ject, known among medical men as eczema.
Its first appearance was near tne anKies.
It rapidly extended over the lower extremi
ties until my legs were nearly one raw sore;
from legs the trouble extended across the
hips, shouldors and the entire length of the
arms, the legs and arms greatly swollen
with an itching, burning pain, without ces
sation. Although the best medical advice
attainable was employed, no less than five
physicians of the place being consulted and
the prescriptions bi-iug the result of their
combined-wisdom, the disease, though ap
parently checked, would recur iu a few days
as bad as ever; during its progress my
weight fell away about twenty-rive pounds.
As an experiment I began the use of Cdti
CURA. following the simple and plain in
structions given with the Remedies, and in
four weeks found myself well, with skin
soft and natural in color, the itching and
pain entirely relieved. W. R- MEAD,
