We clip the following complimentary re marks from the Standard's Salem oorres jiHudence, concerning Senators Dorris and Coleman: Senator 3eo B Dorris, of Lane county, is the debater of the Senate. When he rite to his feet, which is quite often, the Seuate expects te hear a clear and forcible train of argument. He never indulges in flowery speeches, but talks in good, solid earnest, and i! he ever differs in opinion' from the other Senators, it is not in a dogmatical manner, ' but evidently from convictioni that he is right, and the position ence taken, he swerves neither to the right or left. Xothiii'4 id the interest of Lane county escapes his attention. He has a position on two important committees Assessments and Public Buildings. Though a hard worker oo Legislative matters, ho has introduced but few bills, yf, speaks on nearly every one in troduced. ' Mr Dorris is a very pleasant faced geutleuiau in the prime of life, with clear eyes. He is a Democrat after the "straightest sect." Senator Coleman, who jdintly represents Lane county with Hon George B Dorris, is a dignified looking gentleman, having "the ap pearance of a farmer. He is a good speaker, but has iutroiluc'ed but' few bills, ana those principally in the interest of his own county, Its boundaries, University, eta. This is his fi'st term in the Senate, but possesses adapt ability, is making a good Senatorial record. He is quite tall, as most of tho'Seuators are. In politics he is on the Democratic side; Dynamiter on th. Socniv A special to the Pust-Iiitelligenetr under date of theljth from Whatcom, 'W T, states that the resi dence of John H Stenger, a prominent capit alist of that place, was almoht entirely des troyed last evening -by an er plosion of giant powder.
