The local paper is absolutely a home institution. The application of -the terms here used may be emphasized by signifying the pa- )er as the most' enterprising of lome enterprises. It is incontest ably true. It is a fact not less in-1 contestable that the influence of the home paper acts and reacts for the materialization of project ed industries and supernumerary improvements in local lines, and thus the people become thrifty and the town ''builds up." The early history of Boston, Mass., is magnified on the pages of chro nology because in those days it was leading in the van of progress. Dr. Franklin attributes the steady growth of that city to Boston's newspaper influence. Here was established the first newspaper in the United States. It afforded an excellent advertisement of the re sources of the Bay city, and this led to an influx of capital and en terprise which contributed largely to the future greatness of the city and the country. The influence of the home pa per is felt abroad as well as at home. Many business men, seek ing a location, judge of the capa bilities of a town by the support its papers receive. They think, and rightly, too, that if there is much business carried on in a town it will certainly be advertised in the papers. The local paper shows to the outside world what the people of the community are doing. ' The home paper, therefore, as a home institution striving for the upbuilding of home enterprises aud the establishment of home industries, merits the support of home people. If you are a sub scriber and friend of the paper, in duce your neighbor to become one, and you will not only show your appreciation of the paper's efforts, but you will also be aiding a nome institution which influences the price of your property values, and helps you to become a richer and thriftier man. . The East Portland Chronicle cives vent to its feelinjrs on' the metropolitan consolidated charter in the following language: "I he consolidated charter proves to be very defective. It is weak where it ousrht to be stronsr. These im perfections should be corrected When the next legislature con venes. A thorough revision should be made. The mayor, ac: cording to the charter, has but lit tle "power. The oversight of the nolice should not be in the hands of a commission unless the mayor has supervision over it. A char ter that does not give to the city council power to regulate and en force laws that are demanded by the people for the good of all is exceedingly weak. In all large cities there must be a centraliza tion of power in order to secure good government. The council should have a committee whose duty it is to note all defects as they occur and frame amendments to remedy them. Charters for the government of cities .should be framed not for selfish purposes, or to forward pet schemes, but that the best good of. all may be se cured. The' financial management of n nfiwsnaner is a favorite theme with a good many journalists who have theoretical knowledge of the matter, says an exchange. Jim Edwards of Dakota furnishes, in experience, some practical points that have been of value in the in dividual case. While running a newspaper in Fargo, Dakota, after giving his employes each a check lor their week's wages, he would invite them to take tea with him, and after tea they would adjourn to a commercial room. A little wine would be opened and a little game of draw begun, just for amusement, you know, and before .morning Jim would have all the checks back, ana lay tliem away Jfn'r the next Saturday evening, when they would be again paid out to the ; boys, and so on, until the checks were worn out. In this 1 lelrir vTroa fni?rmr- , , . V moWJ ami iha monev kent in the - city. ' - Harvey W. Scott, of the Ore 'gonian,' will refuse the nomination for congresssonal honors, and asks who the friends are who are qui etly urging - his candidacy. Mr. Scott has been. of valuable service to the neoDle of Oregon through the instrumentality, of his . great paper, and he will probably con tinue on his present line of work in the future. The Oregonian has done more for us than almost any eougressman could do- THE'CIilSIS -IN BRAZIL. Reports from Brazil are so coh: tradictory that it as impossible to make a forecast of what will' be the result of the present disturb-" ances. It is, in fact, fairly within the limits of possibility that Dom Pedro may be recalled from exile to the throne in order to restore peace to the country. The revo lution that overthrew him was not the result of a. people . longing for freedom and rising against a des potism. On the contrary it was made up of incongruous elements, and included among its supporters not only ardent republicans and zealous liberals, but also bigoted conservatives and intense reaction ists. Dom Pedro was a ruler with ideas and aims far in advance of those of most of his people. The abolition of slavery made many enemies against his government among the slave holders, and at the same time his indulgence of the political power of the church made enemies lor him among those who applauded the aboli tion of slavery. Thus ho alien ated from him men in both par ties, and when he fell the govern ment fell into the hands of men who were more opposed to one another than the emperor. The present crisis is the outcome of that condition of affairs. Fonseca, the so-called dictator, represents extreme republicanism and the opposition to him comes from those sections where the clergy and slave owners are the most powerful. The contestants seem to be about equally balanced in power, and reports which one day are in favor of the insurgents next day incline to the side of the pres ident. In the meantime it is said that a strong party is- in favor of establishing peace by recalling the emperor, and while this seems to be a wholly improbable occurrence yet when one considers the true state of affairs it will be seen that it is not impossible, and besides in revolutions it is always the unex pected that happens. San Jose Mercury. AVrites Orville Dewey, a man eminent for piety and the rare gift of second sight: "Yet, not with terror only, but with tenderness, does death touch the human heart touches it with a gracious sym pathy and sorrow. One may know the house where death has set his mark, long after the lime. Traces are left in its affections that are never worn out. Traces are left in memoriam, in poetry, in all hu man sentiment. Death is not the sundering, but the consecra tion of friendship. It strengthens that holy bond. It makes the de parted dearer. It gives new power and sanctity to their example. It invests their virtues with the radi ance of angel beauty. It canonizes them as patron saints and guardian angels of the household." The Florida Times-Union asserts upon the authority of a really re liable married woman that if any one will take the sole of an old shoe, burn it to ashes in a red hot vessel, take a teaspoonful of the ashes and mix with a like quanti ty of hog's lard, and apply it three times' a day, it will bring out a heavy coat of hair on the baldest head. in Christendom. Now this is an item worth a dozen boom sto ries about Florida orange crops, and . the Times-Union deserves thanks for publishing it. "Women who have made their husbands bald headed should give this reci pe a trial. It is cheap and easy and there certainly ought to be virtue in leather and lard. The world moves. It is getting better. We are on the upgrade. It is remarkable, yet it is a fact, that the late elections in the differ ent states of the Union were con ducted upon a much higher plane of statesmanship than has been done since the war. The great is sues of our nation were discussed in a statesmanlike manner. The intelligence of the people was ap pealed to, and not their prejudices. While there were some corrupt methods employed in some places, is no doubt true, yet the great dom inant idea was far above the usual methods pursued. This is gratify ing and well worthy so great a people as the Americans. Ex. The Salem Journal gains no friends when it flippantly berates Mr. Buick, of the Roseburg Plain dealer. Mr. Buick has been an honored citizen of Douglas. county for many years, and is regarded as a gentleman in every respect. We are sorry to see the Journal, ; once the embodiment of conservatism, debasing itself in this manner. Such a course generally has but very little weight among thinking people. Mrs. Duniway is to be the ed itor of the Coming Century, a new publication soon to be issued at Portland. The name, to measure more favorable application to its editor, should be the "Century Over." Mrs. Duniway's brilliant display with the pen will give the paper strength. The Sau Francisco Bulletin has this la say -in regard to the ship ment, of . flour : from this coast : It is noticed that Oregon has recently been shipping more flour to Eu rope, than California. It was at one time supposed that we should be able to send a considerable quantity of California flour to Eu rope, and to this end it was pro posed to put up one of the largest mills in the world on this coast. The building, a very large and substantial structure, was erected, but the mill machinery was never ordered. Oregon has an advan tage of cheaper mill power than California, but California flour has been much appreciated in England. This is a year of prosperity, a year of peace, a year of enlighten ed statesmanship and a year when the nations have no cause to fight for; and yet a chanco word spok en by an emperor alarmed every stock board in Europe and almost caused a panic in Vienna. There must be something wrong in the foundations of a civilization whose prosperity is so unstable that it can be shaken as easily as this, and sooner or later the thing must fall through and the people build their national habitations on some thing wider than a throne and stronger than a bayonet. Some of the leading ladies con nected with the Stato Agricultural Society in Georgia have formed an association known as the "Be fore Breakfast Club." The object of the club is to procure a greater number of comforts and luxuries for farmers' wives. Every farmer who joins . it binds himself to do a little more than formerly for his wife's satisfaction and his own home comfort, and to set apart a portion of his crop for that pur pose, the money received for it being given into the hands of the wife to be expended as she pleases. Ecumencial means general or universal, and it would be easy to guess that the members of the ecu mencial conference at Washington came from all over the world. They are not dwelling together in unity as well as they might, a fact to be regretted, as.it gives some an opportunity to cast unkind reflec tions on Christianity generally. In large bodies there is alwajrs bound to be dissension, but ministers should not disagree after the man ner of congressmen, necessitating adjournment in order to- secure peace. According to an estimate sent out by Henry Clews & Co., of New York, the wheat exported from this country last year was 30,000,000 bushels, worth at tide water, $42,000,000. This year the surplus available for export will be 2-10,000,000 bushels, worth $264,000,000. Taking all crops together we will be able to export this year $491,000,000 worth. These figures show something of the prosperity of the country, and so much in excess of those of last year that they hardly seem credi ble. There is a better outlook for hops at present than there was a few months past. The prevalence of lice during the season in many fields has probably had something to do with the backward sale and the small price offered. A few very poor men rented hop yards in the vicinity of Buena Vista, .Folk county, some years ago, and the demand for hops was remark able, the price went up to $1.00 per pound, and those men are to day among the leading tax payers ot i'olK county. Hops did it. Eugene has recently been in fested with a bigamist by the name of Samuel J. Sills. He disappeared the other day, and has not since ventured to show up again. He has a young wife at Eugene. Be fore leaving he gave out the im pression that he was going east to make amicable settlement with his first wife. Sills certain?y im agined that he was living in. Utah, but then he isn't. Tiis New York World acknowl edges that ex-president Cleve land's popularity with his nartv in greater than that of any other catmmaie, but guys his nomination would bo altogether inconsistent with good politics. In fact, the democratic party does not know just who to nominate next year, it we .luuge lrom-present factional divisions that exist within its rank and file. j - " Russia can't borrow.' The czar's people lack credit abroad and food at nome. it seems that the coun try is evidently in a state of star vation,; and that assistance from other countries wilhhave tb. be in augurated for the relief of the huhiberless sufferers. ' . v ; The port of Portland com mis sion has let a contract to the amount of nearly $150,000 for the permanent improvement of the Willamette and Columbia rivers between Portland and, Astoria. Public enterprise, you know. Beet sugar will be one of Ore gon?s principal products in time to come and that time is not very far off. When our people wa"ke up to a reality of the productive ness of our soil, there is nn lino- just what we will be able to pro" uuce, as every experiment proves to be a valuable discovery. Some of the relics of John Brown will be placed on exhibition at the Worlds Fair. Being the father of nineteen children would indicate that a good many interesting relics may be discovered for use at the exposition. His children would be a world dasher within themselves. The Brooklyn bridce furnishes n handsome source for the satisfac tion of the suicide's lean. Tr. is always fatal. The other day a man unipeu 140 leet into the East iver from the bridge and was drowned. It was a clear case of intended self-immolation. The wheat yield in Ontario, ac cording to the report of the bureau ot industries, is extraordinarily large this year, the total spring and fall yield being estimated at 32,584,020 bushels. This is almost double the yield of last year. The rich man generally pays taxes on about 20 per cent of his wealth, and the poor man about 75 per cent of his. This is a sort of legalized swindling in which the poor man is invariably the victim of the burden. Minister Egan's maligners must now take a back seat. He has let ters from prominent men of both sides, promising him their support, lamenting the attacks made upon him, and thanking him for his ser vices. Corvallis' cannery is a sure go. Some may question the prosecu tion of the scheme, but ikis with out doubt a certainty that the cannery will be erected. Keep the matter before the people. Let every moneyed man follow the example of those who are building cottages for sale or for rent. You will find that the move will be a paying investment. Every respectable house in the city is occupied at present. Influenza is increasing and 210 deaths are reported from various sources for the past week. The in fluenza is an epidemic that is not to be laughed at, and many are doubtless finding that out by this time. True charity .does not go about j accompanied by a brass band. This a pointer to organizations that do a little good charity work and a big lot of cackling about it, says the Ashlancf Record. The people's party is dead quite dead. It carried only five out of eighty-eight counties in Kansas this year, and they were not very big counties; either. ,It is becoming more and more apparent that the San Francisco Vigilance committee was disband ed about thirty years too soon. The F. M. B. A. and the farm ers' alliance have amalgamated, though each refuses to adopt reso lutions making consolidation. Corvalms is still growing. It was doing the same thing last week, and at the present rate in a short time it will have a metropolitan appearance. 1892. Harper's Weekly. ILLUSTRATED.
