For the benefit of the un initiated wu may explain that "blufl'' in the gentral senso is to boaat or make claim wi'hout su tantial reason.

"H the taken are tsmsd, without ft "show down." It i K"''l advjeo whether in poker, in 1 lie ordinary business affairs of lit ir in oAM seeking, especially after the IfttttioO in over, never to "bluff" when the plsyer ha the least suspicion that hi op ponent know the wenknc of the "hand" or MOM of the "hluii' r." This observation should bo h' l ed by ono ol the proprietors if the Itejister who f ithcr was a fundi date for county DOBBlwiOMI and who, according 10 the ollicial re turn, was elected by one vote. 1 1 is proponed to contest the right of the ,'ather to hold the office, said contest being binid uoiia reason able belief that in the counting of the Wllvoles cast for that ollicu mistakes occured that, if rectified, might change there-nil and give the office of county cuniuiss'.oner to Howard Itaughuiiiii the Uuioii candidate. To foretall and il pos sible prevent this contest, that might unseat tho elder Kdwards, the son, through the Kegis'er, makes a ureat plav, and w hat poker players would d nominate a "rank bluff." ltank because the object i! the "bluff" is so apparent it will deceive no one, nor prevent the taking of any step that might bt deemed advisable in fairly detorm Iniof to whom Um iflld ! ooantf commissioner of Lane county rightfully belongs. The Uegister says: "The tii 'Ann, the organ ol the In sionists, which is published down the street, says that it can "reliably " state to its readers that V II Ijungh man will contest thu right of II l Hdwards to the seat of county com missioner. The ( i caku is not la the habit of making "reliable'' statements, hence the necessity of th.i special emphasis. "Mr l'Jdwar is was elected by a majority of ono vote, but if the office is contest. -d he will stand a good show of gaining several more. 1'he Uegister i- informed lb it il ih' fusionist- contest the offioe of com missioner, the contest will bo car ried by the republicans to the offlot Ofiherifl'. It is believed by the re publicans thai in at least one pre cinct, which ga?s Rsugbmao and Witheis good mijorities, then was illegal voting at the polls. It, on investigation, this belief should proV true, the nliro vote of the precinct might ho thrown out, which alone would give Scott, the republican oaudidate for ihsrlff, enough votes t elect him md would greatly InOTMM M majority of Kdwards. "If the contest takes place some interesting re-ults may tollow.' A pitiful plea for the possession ot a potty office without submission of the rights thereof to n just and fair tribunal for determination. ItONBl tVND RAM "Hound Mono)," liold, Ketlrrs Knru t'lrculHiiou Win u War Happens, There can he no doubt that a war of considerable magnitude and last ing.say a year or two, would dem onstrate the utter insufficiency ot the gold standard to meet an emergency ; and this is one of the principal reasons why tho baora power is so fearful ol war. It is a mo-t singular eireum etaiKotaai tin' "bt -! money in the world," 6j use i he luflaUd rbatoria of the gdd men, always br-aks down under the strain of war. Tho best money is that which can hold ita own sud efficiently perform its functions under the most uistd vaotageous conditions. Almost anything iu the shape of money will moot the requirements of busi ness when the skies are clear aud tbeaea is calm. Hut wheu the storm breaks aud the waters art lashed into foam the true test of efficiency comes. Under these lat ter circumstances gold has invari ably failed. Never since history bean has a great war been conducted on a gold basis. Why? Is it because there is anything inherently wrong with gold? Certainly not. It is in rely because there is not enough of it. (iold is so scarce as com pared with other things that a few nabobs can corner and impound all that there is ol it in any country. When war comes on a large scale, gold retires from circulation, aud "cheap" piper takes its place. Trices rise. Husiness l ooms, (ireat debts ure contracted upon the bans of the cheap money in circulation. As soon as the war is over the "great finncier" ut once demand that the country return to a "soun J basis," namely gold. Mow any base can lie "sound" that always crumbles and gives way under pressure they never ex plain. It is not to their interest to explain. They know that they are bedding largo claims and demands, both against the government and individuals, which were contracted in the cheap paper money, and the financiers want them paid in gold. aCEBU 01 THE SKA Alt WELL .o!i LAND. The Man of the Hed Cross of Geneva is as sacred on sea as on land; it having hem made so by a decision ol IheCeneva Convention by the adoption of the following article: " The vessels not equipped for lighting, which during pence, the i vi rnmont shall have declared to be intended to serve as floating hospital ships, shall, however, en joy during the war complete neu trality, both as regards stores and also as regards their staff, provided that this quipment i- exclusive to the special service on which they arc employed." Minister Piodo, the Swiss repre sontutivo in this country, has been urging such action on the part of the government since the war be gan. The Swiss Minister at Mad rid lias presented a similar request to the BpanUh court. Added to this was the request that Article X, of the Convention, relating to the neutrality of merchant ships charged exclusively with removal of the sick and wounded, should be adopted. Secretary DtY 00 btbftlf of this (iovernmcnt, has also agreed to this request. His letter to Min ister PiodO re ids: "Should tho ovcriiment of Spain likewise accede to the Swiss proposition, I should he Miuch untitled to be ap prissd of the fftOt, and also that tho Spanish accession contemplates ac ceptance of the interpretations of Articles IX and X, which wore uhq ted by K ranee and the North llorinany States, and which aro embraced in the proposition of your t iovernmcnt." War is no quilting party. This is brought to mind by Coneral Shutter's telegram to the war de partment that he can take Santiago within -18 hours but the victory will involvo c insiderahlo los of life. A sad rell.vtion, hut it is a condition of war from which there is no escape.
