Complimentary Remarks.
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. The perpetrator of the outrage
have no't been discovered, although the au
thorities claim to have obtained a clue.. No
one injiiredi Stenger is the president of the
Wishingtoo Colony, and is proprietor of the
large sawmill at Whatcom.
Dead. The railroad, says an exchange,
has killed the old town of Yakima about as
dead as a town evr was done for in the same
space of time. Property worth f 10,000 a
few months ago goes Legiag now for a pur
chaser at $1,000. A lot for which 1300 was
paid not long ago is offered for (50. Some
of the owners are Ulkiogcf saicg the com-' .
peiy for damages. J

Fkarful AccifiKNT. On the 6th Herman
Walker, aged sixteen, son -of' M'W Walker,
living about three miles from Shedd station,
