THE SUGAR-CUBED CONGRESS.
. Tune "The Old Oaten Bucket."
How dear to our hearts is our Democratic
Congress
As hopeless- inaction presents it to view.
The bill of poor Wilson, the deep tangled
tariff,
And every mad pledge that their lunacy
The widespread depression, the mills that
elosed by it,
The rock of free silver where great Grover
fell.
They've busted our country, no use to
deny it,
And darn the old party, it's busted as
well,
This G. Cleveland Congress,
Queen Lilly Congress,
This wild free trade Congress
We all love so well.
Their moss covered pledges we no longer
treasure,
Wot oftea at noon when out hunting a
jH
W find that instead of the coru that they
promised,
TneyVe given us nothing not even the
cob.
How ardent we've cussed 'em with lips
overflowing
With sulphurous blessings as great swear
words fell.
The emblems of hunger, free trade aud free
silver,
Are sounding in sorrow the workiugman's
knell.
' Uhi batik-hreakine; Congress,
This mill-closing Congress,
This starvation Congress
We all love so well.
Bow eweet from their eloquent lips to re
ceive it,
"Cursed tariff protection no longer up
hold." We listened and voted our dinner pails
empty.
The factoi ics silent, the furnaces cold.
And now far removed from our lost situa
tions, The tsar of regret doth intrusively swell,
We ye.-irn for Republican Administration
Aud sigh for the Congress that serve! us
so well
This Fifty-third Congress,
This Democrat Congress,
This sugar-cured Congress
We wish was in well.

CYNICISM.
Cynicism, when considered as a
Bterary production, is entitled to
profound reverence on account of
its antiquity, if for no other reason
it dating; very nearly if not quite
back to- the beginning. It has
always been recognized as a po
tent factor in judging mental cali
ber and; exposing folly. It being
akw of nature that each indi
vidual must display his or her in
dividuality and that this power
cannot be-delegated to 5r usurped
by another, it follows, that cyni
cism can- never expose the ign -
ranee not folly of. anyone but
that of its author. And consid
ering that all are trying to con
ceal then own weakness, it is
strange that it has been so ex
tensively indulged in, for why
should a man expose his own de
formities because he thinks he
discover imperfections in others?
One would suppose he would draw
ni own mantle more closely
about him, instead of discarding it
altogether,, while he tries vainly
fco call attention- to his neighbor.
What monstrous hallucination
must posses a man who keeps
firing at people with a gun which
Ikits no one but himself? Is it
possible that he imagines people
are falling all about him while he
Alone sutlers and is the only tar
get his weapon reaches? Can he
not see 'hat it is curved, and while
one end is pressed closely to his
shoulder, the other points at his
heart! Will he never know that
the canker about his own heart is
caused by the envenomed shafts
he has been firing at his neighbors?
Will lie continue to sally forth to
break lances with other people's
windmills, when his own is not
capable of grinding corn for the
old horse mi which he rides? Will
he always find more to reform
outside of himself than inside?
Is it possible that he can so far
forget his mission in life as to
dTive the sunshine out of his own
soul and prove only a source of
annoyance to those about him?
Shall he continue to believe him
self a reformer, while he is only a
miserable wreck of one of God's
creatures? Let us hope that he
may reform before he dies, that
he may turn his magnifying glass
from the follies of life to its beau
ties, and behold men and women
around him with pure intentions
and noble impulses, while his own
soul is filled with a light which
shall disclose rainbow tints all
around him.
The populist governors will all
go out as rapidly as the people
can get at them. Pennoyer
simply goes early and avoids the
rush. Kansas City Journal.
Undoubtkdly the sugar schedule
is put into" the tariff bill for pay
ment of a political debt. From
the sugar ring came the demo
cratic .campaign and corruption
fund in 1892. The country will
ring with this, as with other acts
of the party in power, during the j
coming elections.
VALEDICTORY.
Commencement week! It is a
time for festivity. Its name is
suggestive Gf a whole troupe of
pleasant themes competition, re
ward, rest, vacation, boqiu-ts, ap
plause, well wishes, pleasant retro
spect and brave, hopeful forecast
of successful strife in the broad
arena of i he great outside world.
Life'
s journey is divided into
certain well defined stages. It
has i!s stopping places, where oie
may look back over the stretch of
country already journeyed, re
cuperate one's strength, and meas
ure one's chances for the next ad
vance. For the young man, his
last college commencement is such
a halting place; and if he be
gifted by nature with a character
at all alive to the serious side of
life if he have the capacity to
look below the surface of things
and see the grand possibilities of
success, the awful liabilities to
disaster that lie around him,
i,e will call a halt, look himself
over and ask what kind of a future
am I about to carve out for my
self in the large sphere of life
ahead of me. A college gradu
ating class may be divided into
halves; one of which, as a re
sult of the past three or tour years
study, believes that it knows a
great deal; the other, the thought
ful half, realizes that it knows but.
very lit lie. For the former there
is but little hope of future ad
vance; for the latter every hope.
It has been well said that the
creates! benefit of a college course
is that it teaches one how to teach
himself. A college graduate who
has spent three years in serious
work makes his exit through the
college gales with a smai tering of
subjects. This is worth some
thing; but of infinitely more worth
to him is the habit, of method in
study that has. or should have
been formed; the meutal disci
pline which is received in follow
ing out the common college cur
riculum. Let him forget the or
der and number of propositions of
Euclid, if he will only bear in
mind that definitions and axioms
cmie before propositions, and that
the indispensible proof is only at
tained by careful consecutive lay
ing of the fundamental elements
that led up to it. The value of
this will be seen in his after life
in the great world. The fault cf
college life aud work is its hurried,
and tendency to slip-shod, method,
though in this respect it is ahead
of the great outside world of
which it is the prototype. Too
much is done on the '-get there"
principle. This fault lies not in
the scope and extent of college
work, but in its execution. The
graduate will be richly repaid for
the time and expense of his course,
if lie has formed the habit of at
tention to detail, of making each
consecutive step as he goes, so
that he may always feel sure at
least of solid ground to stanu upon;
and have a fair vantage ground as
a base for further advance in the
battle of life.
The most successful men in life
have been lovers of detail, careful
builders, slow and sure, rather
than fast and brilliant. Genius
may afford a defense with detail,
and may step to the front with
rapid strides, but genius is scarce.
One other almost equally valua
ble effect of college lite on which
the graduate should dwell, upon
which he should improve in the
future world life, is the social and
civic lessons he has, or should
have learned. The college is a
social world and the student has
already found that no one lives
entirely to himself. Considera
tion for others, public spirit, large
heartedness and all civil virtues
should have their birth, and in
deed a full and healthy develop
ment in the three years of college
life. In this field the college
faculty has a grand opportunity of
showing to the students a bright
example. They should make it
evident that their work is marked
by' that crowning glory of pro
fessional work disinterestedness;
that their devotion to the growing
people under their care, that their
zeal for their intellectual and
moral advancement is the remun
eration in their work, and that the
pecuniary remuneration is second
ary and subordinate as a motive.
If this conviction is not deep
seated in the students' hearts, the
faculty has lost one-half of its
power and influence or the after
life of the student will be simply
nothing. "
The graduating class of - '94 car
ries with it the well wishes of the
citizens of Corvaliis. There are in
it some fine specimens of the
strength and intelligence of Amer
ican youth; and we hope and are
assured, that in the future walks
of life we snail hear of some of its
members in the years to come.
Since the government is run
ning behind every day, and Cleve
land has shown his utter lack ot
ability to cope with the situation
it has been suggested that he would
best subserve the interests of the
people by appointing McKinley re
ceiver and stepping down and out
himself.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, June 18, 1894.
It would be difficult to say whether
the sugar trust democratic senators or
the men who compose the sugar trust
are the most frightened just now.
The danger ahead of the sugar sched
ule is no longer, thanks to a robust
expression of puliliu opinion by the
newspapers of the country, confined to
the house. A movement is now on
foot to modify the sugar schedule be
fore the formal vote is taken on it in
the senate. If it were not for abso
lute pledges which democratic si.na
tors have made there would be no
doubt of the success of the movement.
Still the disgust of some of them is so
marked that they may repudiate thtir
p'edges, preferring to offend the sugar
trust rather th&n to lose the respect of
thousands of their constituents
The week opened with much uncer
tainty concerning the tariff bill.
Senator Harris expected to have dis
posed of the wool schedule by the
middle of last week, but it is still un
disposed of. although is will be finished
early this week, unless the threat to
filibuster until some duty is put upon
wool shall be carried out. It is ex
pected that the debate on the income
tax will occupy nearly or quite a week,
and it is not yet certain that it will be
reached this week. So there is little
probability that the final vote will be
re.-iched before the first of July.
That "there are more wuyt to kill a
dog than hanging" is proven by the
manner in which Mr. Cleveland is try
ing to make congress obey his request,
not to enter upon any financial legisla
tion at this session. The bill provid
ing for a currency commission which
shall spend six months in investigating
the subject before submitting its
recommendation to congress, is Mr.
Cleveland's scheme to prevent action
upon any financial bill, and the ad
ministration influence is being used to
get it favorably reported from the
house committee on banking and cur
rency. If Mr. Sill, the man who gave the
first information (for which he received
several thousand dollars in cash) that
the Carnegie companies were not
properly carrying out their contiacts
with the government for the making
of armor plate for war vessels, is not
one of the greatest liars of the age,
the Carnegie companies, instead of
being fined a few thousand dollars by
Mr. Cleveland,, should have been
made to refund every dollar received
for botched work and to have forfeited
their contracts. Sdl has been here for
several days testifying in the investiga
tion that is being conducted by the
house naval committee. The most of
his testimony can be verified, as he
specifies every piece of bad armor that
was delivered to the government, and
as it can all be got at and examined
and probably will be in course of time.
The odd part about the business is
that Mr. Cleveland-knew all about this
man's testimony when he set aside the
decision of Secretary Herbert iu this
matter and himself made one very
much more favorable to Carnegie, who
evidently knew whose interest he was
serving when he publicly endorsed the
Wilson tariff bill in its original form.
before going to Europe for an indefi
nite stay.
The explanation fever is no longer
monopolized by democratic senator--.
Representative Richardson, of Ten
nessee, had a very bad case of it,
when, in reply to the charge of a local
paper that he had been using his posi-
About six months ago my Iittlo son, aged
three, was very much troubled with a breaking
out on his scalp and behind his ear. The places
effected were about as large as a silver dollar,
the flesh seemed raw and covered with Iittlo
blisters. The child suffered considerably, and
was naturally very fretful. I tried several reme
dies without obtaining any beneficial results,
in fact the eruptions seemed to be spreading
and new places breaking out. I concluded
to try the Cutiouiia Exmedies, and boupht
a box of Cctiouka, a cake of Cuticcba Soap;
and a bottle of Cuticora Kesoi-vent. I washed
the effected parts with the Cuticitba Soap,
taking care not to irritate the flesh, and applied
Cuticuba. I noticed a chance for the better in
the appearance of the eruptions in twenty-four
hours. I continued the treatment morning and
night, and in two weeks the eruptions entirely
disappeared, leaving the skin smooth and the
scalp clean, in fact a perfect cure, as I have not
seen any indications of any eruption or breaking
out since. I gave the child only a few doses of
the CuncnnA Rf.soi.vekt. I consider your
Cutisura Remedies very valuable, and expect
to keep a small supply constantly on hand. I
believe CtrncrRA would be excellent for apply
ing to insect bites, which are verv annoving in
this country. C. A. ARMSTRONG,

43 x How to Cure Skin Diseases," mailed fraa
tion as a member of the house com
mittee on the District of Columbia to
speculate in real estate, ho explained
by saying that lie had bought some
real estate on speculation, which he
sold to a real estate agent, without
knowing that it was purchased for a
street railway company which had a
bill before the D. C. committee, and
j t hat it was a mere coincidence thai he
:(Mr. Richardson) happened, as a mem
iber of that committee to report a bill
I favorably to the house, which that
jcompany was very anxious to have
j passed, just four days after the sale of
:that real estate. Such coincidences
:ai"e dangerous to public men.
The last democratic senator to make
i an explanation was Ransom, of North
Carolina, who confessed, after the
i facts had been ascertained by newspa
per men, that his son, who is his com
mittee clerk, had been speculating in
sugar trust stock. It is not probable
that Mr. Ransom would have ever
saiil anything about it if the senate
investigating committee had not in
deference to a general public demand
examined every senator at present in
Washington, going alphabetically
through the list. Senator Quay sur
prised nearly everybody when he testi
fied that he had been speculating in
sugar stock; that he had a perfect
right to do so, and would whenever he
felt so inclined. The greatest interest
is felt in the testimony of Senator Gor
man, who is still absent and repor'ed
to be sick. It may be that he
will join the other democratic
senators who helped him fix up the
sugar schedule in denying everything,
but i here is reason to believe that he
could tell some very sensational things
in connection with this business if so
I disposed. But it is hardly probable
'that he will be so disposed when his

With th- trial and execution of

day, the world will probably be
given another opportunity of
learning lrom France some whole
some lessons in the administration
,of justice. It is humiliating in
deed, to an American, to admit
that he must look across the ocean
to Europe, for examples in the
trials and punishment of crimi
nals while living in a country that
boasts of her freedom and excel
lent form of government, but
wherein more sentimental non
sense and jugglery with justice is
indulged in, than in any other
portion of the civilized world.
The Best Medicine.
J. O. "Wilson, Contractor and
Builder, Sulphur Springs, Texas,
thus speaks of Ayer's Pills :
" Ayer's Pills are the best medicine I
ever tried; and, in my judgment, no
better general remedy could he devised.
I have used theui la my family and
recommended them to my friends and
employes for more than twenty years.
To my certain knowledge, many cases
of the following complaints have been
completely and
Permanently Cured
by the use of Ayer's Pills alone: Third
day chills, dumb ague, bilious fever,
sick headache, rheumatism, flux, dys
pepsia, constipation, and hard colds. I
know that a moderate use of Ayer's
Pills, continued for a few days or weeks,
as the nature of the complaint required,
would be found an absolute cure for the
disorders I have named above."
"I have been selling medicine for
eight years, and I can safely say that
Ayer Pills give better satisfaction
than any other Pill I ever sold." J. J.
