Jelly Work Has Turned the River Info Que and good citizenship: "Waico county ilemxraU, popu lists and silver republicanssn to be congratulated upon the work ac complished by tlwir reapective con ventiona last Saturday. The ac complishment of so complete a union aa was i-(To? ted of three partita that lit ve one purpose in view, though In tho pant have been ao widely divided, was a grand r ault, and will have a lasting (fleet upon the politics not only of this immediate vicinity, bu, of the en tire a tale. It will tend io huma nize discordant elements in other localities, and to cement the union that existed during the national campaign of 18'JC. The platfor.n adopted wasbroal enough for all liberal minded men tj eland on, embodying as it does the funda mental principles of Hound and just government. "As to the nominees, tbry wi re selectel from among the beet men of the three parties, and were chosen for their known tionetty and capability. They are men oi sterling worth and unquestionable qualifications. They are men who will appeal to the voters of the county for their capabilities, and it elected will provs satisfactory to the masses aa public servants." i kugene butchers are following the general prosperity fad, and have "fused" on the price of all kinds of meat. Of course it's a raise. Kvery producer as well as busi nesa man !n Oregon, should neo to it that their stale lias a display o! products at the trans-Misais-ippi exposition at Omaha that ni l Ixt a source of pride to thuin. Concerted action and push will do it. A steamboat owned by Kugene men is not an impossibility. The project is not dead. It is simply sparring for wind. Uoieburg business men vie with alarm the S P'a intention to take from them a pay roll of ifGOOO per month, and toolset this advo cate all kinds of schemes, promi nent among which is a High school. The many men whoso frienda have urged that they accept tlm nomination fur office aro now on the anxious seat. They fear they are not the only can in the back alley. A lively building season in Ku gene is coming on. The now court United .States and .Spain, the pec-J pie of die L nued Btat'-s need hard ly expect to find in the Treasury a few months hence a dollar of the (if'.y rn-illi ins lati-Iy appropriated for tho rational defense by the unanimous vote of Congress. A greitdeil of tho money haibien spent already, rs it was intended to be, in preparation lor an armeJ conflict, if such a direful thing he comes netersary. Without coal, without ammunition and project ile of tho most extensive kiud, without officer md men. our navy, however tx'enfive, would be Ii3lp leK. Fifty n,illioiiH is not hallo what England is spewing on her navy without proximity to war our country has. It is only u sort of prol'igue to what the pe ople of the Unite 1 .Stales will rjn-nd if the aa eurance of peace does not soon one. This h all well enough. It U be ter to make the outlay in pre Hunting a formidable readiness for conflict, than to spend the money in killing poiplu. iVa o must be an expensive luxury till the world become more amiable than it is now.

The London Paly Chronicle, in an editorial on the growth of the Auglo-Amcricaii alliance idea, ex presses the conviction that it is only a matter of lime, but that it would oe a great mistuko to try to rush tho movement. It siys: "America does not need more help from us now than any other lime. She is sujierabundantly capable ol meeting any situation the t may .rise.

Tho agricultural dejiartment bus put issued a bulletin on tho San J )ie scale for 1S90-7, prepared by entomologist I, () Howard. It is of much intenst at this time because ot the recent edi. t of the German government prohibiting the trans portation of livinc plant, fruits, etc, because uf tho alleged discovery ol the scale on pi-ars shipped from California. Never, it is said, in the history ol economic onto:nol gy in the Uni led .- tales has a single species caused so much interest as this Sun Josu scale. It was reported as oc curring in twenty bUtcs in l89.'( but In comparatively few localities in each, with the single exception f New Jersey. Jn lS'J(-7, actual field inspection in Virgin! i, Mary land, Illinois, Ohio and Georgia and several others showed that in these states the insect w is nearly as wide-spread as in New Jersey, while twelve states and the district of Columbia have been added to the number cont lining infe.-ted points, I'ho conditions in over thirteen states and territories are tho.i given some of the most important being California, Maryland, rennsyl vania, Illinois, Michigan and New Jersey. Consider iblo spaeo is da voted to tho discussion of tho rem edies suggested t ) kill the pest. A loe1 kupplr ' Geo II Coulter, who la In from the lower Hluslaw for a few days, says that the Hluslaw liar Is now In a very atle ftctoiy condition, due from the benefits derived from the government work. Last week before coming out, Mr Coulter personally took soundings on the bar and louud from ulna to ten feet at low tide and from 17 to 18 at high tide. Ha a'eo found that the river U working into one channel at tben'outh, and la now able to see wherein th- Jetties will be a perma nent benefit. The government engineer, who bad charge of Ibis work aaya the bar will continue to Improve and both satisfac tory and reliable resulU will continue from the work done there. It is a source ot gratification to Lane county in general to know that the. work lias terminated with such good results. The shifting sntid dunes at the bar have given much aunoyance as they have kept thin part of the river Io two and three channels. The pres ent Improvements and future work will aeecruu to the lasting benefit of Lane county. Kot'ee. Vou can buy a shoe that baa li"t ..ulj g "dVrviee In II. but also wade in good st)le.
