We desire to ag'iiii call atten tion to our veiy liberal subscrip tion offer outlined previously.

The pictures are 10x11 inches and the pages are llxl3i inches in size, and the vol ume is an ornament to any home. We send it free, postage paid, to every new subscriber; to any old subscriber who renews for one year and to any person, subscriber or non-subscriber, who sends us one new subscriber, the remittance for one years subscription to be forwarded in each case. COLLEGE FOOTBALL. , Acting-President Berchtold, of the Oregon Agricultural College in his remarks at the concert Fri day evening, strongly favored col lege athletics. lie showed that even football, the roughest and most criticised of "all college games, is highly beneficial in vari ous respects. . The professor is certainly risiht Football is rough, perhaps rougher than necessary, but we can not expect young men to -content themselves with tiddledewinks and croquet. Football , is Tnot a sissy game; fut we don't want sissies in our colleges; 1f he rough ness of football does not tend to make the players coarse or brutal any more than the killing of men in war imparts murderous instincts to the soldier. Cowards can not piay iootoail, and brave men are not bullies. The game develops the manly spirit; it trains a man physically and quickens his men lai iactuues. Wellington once said the battle of Waterloo was won on the Eton football grounds. Football has thin advantage over other athletic sports that finds favor among college men: The players contend against personal present opponents; they, strive man with man. Racing comes nearest to football in this respect, but the former sport is far behind in point of interest aud in the gen eral development of the peformer. football is purely an amateur sport. Efforts to popularize foot ball as a professional game have signally failed. While not exclu sively a college game, it is more so than any other, and matches between teams of athletic associa tions are never so interesting nor so popular as those between elev ens of rival colleges. Football develops the college spirit, and this college spirit is a form of patriotism. It de velops the student's pride in the institution with which he is con nected, and the young man who has a jealous pride m his college . will make a safe citizen. FACTS AND CONDITIONS. The free trade press and its allies, says the American Econo mist, the mugwump independent organs, tell us that good times are upon us and denounce any further discussion of the tariff question. The following facts are apparent in relation to our industrial, finan cial, and commercial situation: The receipts of the treasury have fallen behind the expendi tures at the rate of about $50,000, 000 per annum. We have increased the national debt by $162,000,000 thus far under this administration. The treasury is not paying the appropriations made by congress, and has adopted all sorts of sub terfuges to prevent such payments, - 6uch as the establishment of a supremest court in a bureau of the goverumentat Washington. Our exports have fallen off more than $120,000,000 per annum, as com pared with the last two years of the McKinley law. Our imports are increasing. We are importing the common articles of agricultu ral and of mechanical and indus trial production, the things which can be produced by American1 labor, and we are sending abroad our money to pay. in this indirect way, the labor of HiUrope, Asia, and Alrica. Whiie this condition exists, labor in this country is yet largely unemployed and, outside 6f a few branches, is being remunerated at a figure lar below the McKiuley times of 1892. If this be prosper ity we have it. REPUBLICANS WIN. The result of Tuesday's elections shows plainly the popular distrust in which the democratic party is held. The tidal wave of two years ago Was continued, which augurs well for the success of the republi can national ticket a year hence. States that have heretofore been regarded as doubtlul are now surely republican, while the pres ent doubtful states have hereto fore been safely democratic. Even Maryland rolled up a republican majority that is astonishing. Tam many carried JNew lork city as was anticipated, but the state is surely republican by a large nia- lontv. JNew Jersey is also repub lican. Kentucky is still in doubt, with chances in favor of the dem ocrats. In this state the republicans only expected to elect their candi date for governor. Both parties are claiming Utah. Virginia and Mississippi are safely democratic, but everywhere the republi U 1 1 A l cans are successiui. Joy me le suit reDublicans will srain two United States senators as success ors to Gibson, ot Maryland, aud Brice, of Ohio. The majorities as given by yes terday's Oregonian are as lollows: M assachusetts 63,000 New York 70,000 New Jersey". 20,000 Pennsylvania 150,000 Maryland 10,000 Kentucky... i,7 Mississipi 50.000 Illinois 3. Ohio 111,000 Iowa , 60,000 The figures for Kentucky; and Missis sippi are democratic and the others republican. . . - During the past month sixty eight soldiers were cared for at the soldiers' home in Roseburg, aiid at a cost of twenty-two cents per day. This largest number of men ever having been in the home at one time, weie maintained for a less aggregate sum of money than for any previous mouth since, the home was opened. It can" be said that one state institution is con ducted on business principles, and it will be commended by main' journals in this state, excepting of course, the Roseburg papers, which are a common enemy of thg present bard of trustees.

Editor Gazkttk: As individuals and collectively as a people, a community or a nntion, wearesubjeet to and bound by the acts and doings of our legislatures and rep resentatives. They are simply our agents, and under present existing rules and condi tions, can bind us forever. We may say our representatives are responsible to us for their acts. If some one asks wherein they arc responsible we can only say if they do not vote or work for the interests of the people we will not re-elect them. How consoling this must be after the most valuable fran chises, rights and privileges have been voted and conveyed from the bands of the people into the clutches of a few avariciuus and greedy corporations for all time to come. The nation, state op city is our farm. At present we give our representatives, legisla tors and aldermen absolute unlimited con trol or lwwer over it. Power to inar it- Power to mortgngc it and fasten upon pos terity a ruinous debt, reserving to ourselves only the privilege to not elect them again and perhaps wi.-h we never had. The constitution is our pasture fence. Our nntion aud state is our carriage; our repre sentatives and legisiators are our horses. "With the present arrangements wo harness our horses, hitch them (often wiid colt) to our carriage, clitnb in for a ride without lines or whip, and trust ourselves to the ever tender mercies of a kind Providence which is supposed to always have special care over half-witted people. Our horses may balk oj lie down and flop over and get tangled in the harness as did our friend Tom or may wildly tear over the pasture, down steep gullies, over rocky hills, and finally burst our empty skulls, (we have no brains to spill) cripple and disfigure us, for life. Why . shudder at this, have wo not the comforting ' assurance that our bones or maimed remains may be found somewhero within the can- ! fines of the ten rail and 10 per cent, fenced in ' constitution. . With the initiative and refer- endum we could avoid such dastardly and j cowardly results and be at all times masters ' 4 tf t.ha Gitiifttir,n i n H t'fw.T.iit n tKa ruin, tt 4 government in our own hands, we might then say our representatives are our tailors and shoemakers. We will still have to jmy them as now, but should they make a mis fit we will not then as now have to wear the unsightly garment or the corn-pinching shoe. We might, too, call them our cooks and provide them with a bill of fare throuch the initiative that we may not be compelled to eat and swallow every unsavory and dirty mess they may set before us. With the referendum we could say "no thank you," and by the initiative compel them to prepare our meals to order. The people are fast finding out tlial making laws by proxy is even more unsatisfactory than making love by proxy, and are now - proceeding to nmltH laws an llipv make love, ill Dcrson.

There' is likely to be a flour famine in Alsea if .the rain holds off much longer. This weather though pleasant is very dis couraging to Mr. Kimball, the miller. Bev. Oliver, a minister of the Baptist church, has been holding' a series of meet ings at the church during the pa?t few days. Several persons were baptised Sunday. Saturday .was a gay day in Alsea. A horserace was the cause ol the excitement. The horses belonged to Frank Hughes and Austin Taylor. Hughes backed his horse and his judgnient:by a yoke of oxen against which Taylor put up a spotted bull. Tay lor's mare won easily, and in consequence many nickl3s, dimes, half-dollar pieces and jack knives changed hands. Wany scrub races were run and much enthusiasm pre vailed. There was not a cross word spoken by any one and all seemed to enjoy the oc casion.
