THE HOME PAPER.
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

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

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.

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

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
