It is doubtful if the democracy will be able to even make a re spectable effort in the next presi dential contest Not only has its recent legislation and its pres ent administration found great disfavor with the people, but the party seems hopelessly split on the financial question. Democ racy seems to be in an advanced state of disintegration. Democracy has had its oppor tunity as a dominant party and has signally failed to show itself in any particular entitled to that position. It will be a longtime before it will regain the confi dence of the people to the degree that they will trust democracy with the reins of government. But whatever the incapabil ties of the democratic party, it will be a national disaster should it -become the third party in poli tical power. The country will have cause for mourning should the populists elbow democracy out of the race for supremacy. The very foundations of the pop ulist party are laid in pessimistic discontent and anarchistic ideas of political economy. The bulk of the populist party is made up probably of men who think they are, and, generally speaking, really are, good enough citizens. Their intentions, in the main, are good enough, but Mrs. O Leary's cow probably had no bad intentions wlren she kicked the lamp over, nevertheless, she burned Chicago in getting rid of a fly. As it now looks, republicans will have but little opposition next year. Of course all things . are possible in politics, but noth ing short of an apparent miracle can raise up an opposition that will .wean away the people from their present" faith in the repub lican party. The present agitation concern ing the non-enforcement of the city's quarantine ordinances is rather surprising. Our. citizens seem to be spasmodic in their municipal desires. They are - very earnest in locking the barn door after the disappearance of the horse. A death at the Occi dental hotel, recently, is thought to be directly due to the non enforcement of the quarantine law, and there is a general ex pression of indignation con cerning the matter, as though for sooth the laws of Corvallis were made to be used. At one time last spring there were twenty-one known cases of contageous dis eases, yet only two . or three houses were quarantined. But there was no uproar about it. This paper called attention of the police department to the matter at the time, but there-was . noth ing done and the people upheld the department. Then, why the present complaint against the chief of police? His present policy is perfectly consistent with that of previous years. We have the last council for authority that our laws were not made to be obeyed. Of course some of the city ordinances are carried out, but, then, the salary of the chief of police is not high enough to enable him to prevent these exceptions.

The Corvallis Gazette, now in its thirty-third year, has just celebrated its first anniversary under the very efficient manage ment of B. W. Johnson. The Gazette is one of the best week lies in Oregon, and an aggressive exponent of republicanism. Heppner (jazette. The editor of the Boston Her ald in an interview with a New York paper declares his belief that the democrats will win in 1896. Mr. Holmes is an opti mist of the highest type. He bases his belief on the improve ment of trade in the country and the aversion of the people to a change. He also favors Whitney as the democratic candidate. The people tried an experiment in 1892 which was not successful. That ruin did not follow is not to be credited to the party which the people placed in power, but to causes which that organiza tion does not and cannot control.

I read of a lady in Kalamazoo, KNEW MORE THAN REED, In order that the government in the future may not be caught in such a predicament as tliat which has given the administra tion so much embarrassment during the past six months and that any deficiency ot revenue may be met, it is reported that Secretary Carlyle will ask the next congress to give him author ity to issue treasury notes or cer tificates bearing a low rate of interest, and redeemable at the pleasure of the government. Should the request be granted it will enable the government to pay its running expenses without large long-time bond issues and make it possible to tide over short-revenue periods, and more especially it would prevent a drain of gold from the treasury in times like the present. It is interesting to note that this plan was suggested by ex-Speaker Reed in his amendment to the bond and bank bill last winter, which the democrats opposed solidly, mainly because Secretary Carlisle claimed that the revenue would be ample for all purposes ! and such a provision was quite unnecessary. -Post-Intelligencer. THE attitude of the Astorian on the improvement of the Col umbia river is. surprising. That paper is ably edited, and on al most any subject is sound and broadminded, but on the matter of the Columbia improvement it manifests a condemnable little ness of spirit, selfishness and absolute silliness.. Large cities erow, not on the misfortunes and the crippling of sister cities, but on account of their own peculiar advantages and merits. Astoria, doubtless, has a bright, a bril liant future, but it must grow to prosperity by the unanimous efforts of its citizens in its behalf; by the advantages of a splendid harbor; by being accessible by water and rail to the balance of the world, and by the aid of the people of Oregon. It can never reach the height of its ambition by attempting to injure Portland. Portland will not be injured, and assaults upon ' the metropolis of the state ought to, and will arouse the ire of a great majority of Oregoiiians, especially, when it takes the form of an attempt to stop improvements of the great Columbia. That is a matter that concerns, directly or indi rectly, the prosperity of the whole state. Astoria is blind to her owu interests in opposing such improvements. r "Oregon" has commenced active efforts. The general outline of the campaign was made at the recent committee meeting in Portland and the dudes of the several members of the commit tee apportioned. The commit tee, of course, anticipate the hearty cooperation of the state for this is a matter that appeals directly to the patriotism and loyalty of our citizens. The school children will be given an opportunity to contribute their mites, and . it will be a grand thiner if every child will be able to claim a personal interest and proprietorship in the splendid warship of our country that bears the name of Oregon.

The friends of Governor Lord cannot but deplore his action in appointing Henry McGinn as circuit judge for Multnomah county. The governor must surely know that the appointee can not add lustre to the judici ary of Oregon, but will rather be a stain upon it. He has no rep utation as a lawyer, except such as he gained as a pleader in criminal cases, and his record as a man is most unsavorv. This is a matter that concerns the peo ple of Multnomah county most immediately, but it is also of general public , interest to the citizens of the state. When blustering rowdyism aims at the highest place in our judicial sys tem, the people have a right to and will protest.; The Orego nian, editorially,, damns the ap pointment with faint praise. . It cannot dutifully condemn it. That paper hints at McGinn's past un worthiness -in its half hearted guarantee of his future good conduct To put a man like McGinn in the place lately occupied by Judge Hurley, a gentleman and an able jurist, would be humorous in its con trast, were it not so serious a matter. Governor Lord has j maue a grave mistake.
