We hail thee great and glorious isle,
Mother of the brave and free;
From thy shores the pilgrim fathers
Bought this wild America.
From thy all sustaining bosom.
Came eur learning, and our laws;
Came our glorious constitution,
And the most of our papa's .
For all these tae humbly thank thee,
JTore than tongue or pen can boast;
But for Oscar, Jumbo, Lilly,
'Tis for tUcso tvc thank thee most.

Another of those terrible calamities
which sicken ones very soul and" send a
thrill of horror over the whole country
has just occurred at Milwaukee Wis
consin. A six story hotels wasfcurnedj
on thJTaorningot the lUth and, so far as
known, nearly one hundred people per
ished in the flames. It is useless to
attempt & detailed acceunt of the af
fair. No one can picture such a sconp,
and it would only make a useless ad
dition to the miser if one could. There
is no death so terrible, and from which
one shrinks with su:h ungovernable
feelings of horror, as that of being
burned to death in sight of tho living,
moving, world around. In this caso it
ig clear that this immense sacrifice of hu
man lifo was made on the alter of mis
erable, niggardly, miserly, cupidity. In
order to make a ttig show upon a little
money tho building was constructed
six stories in height without a single
brick partitien and literally no means
of escape in case of fire. A coroners
jury has been summoned to inquire in
to tho matter and the authorities hare
published their determination to kift
it to the bottom and punish
the persons responsible for this horri
ble catastrophe. The probability, how
ever, is that nething beyond a pompous
investigation will be accomplished. It
is so with almost all snch cases. The
public is rushed into extremes by some
such horrible calamity as this and then
gradually recedes and things go on as
usual. What is needed, in the large
cities, is a stringent law strictly en
forced, compelling such an arrangement
of large buildings as to permit escape
in the event of a fire, not by means of
one or two narrow stair ways, but by a
dozen or arore broad ones..
The past week has been particularly
productive of disastrous fires. In St
Louis the Planters Hotel was partly
burned and three or four lives lost. At
Oak Harbor, Ohio, the jail with cno
prisoner was burned while from Russia
comes the startling intelligence that a
circus building in a Russian city was
burned, during a performance, and 300
people were consumed. All these ter
rible confligrations will not have hap
pened in vain if they result in illumin
ating the intellects of our legislators
sufficiently for them to sea tho neces
sity of some radical measures of pro
tection from their repitition.
Democratic tariff-for-ravenuo-only ,
politicians are industriously engaged
in patching up Sam Randalls high
tariff opinions to make them consist
with their stock of political capital on
the tariff question. Of course Ran
dall is, and has been all his life, one of
the mest intolerant and uncompromis
ing of high protectionists; but his al
most certain election as Speaker of the
next House of Representatives makes
it necessary to adjust the difference be
tween high tariff protection and tariff
for revenue only upon some basis of
high sounding terms or back-acting
principles that will appease the agri
cultural district. After all this talk
about the tariff, as a party question the
southern and western Democrats de-
mand such an organization of the next
House as will promise the advance
ment of their cause: and they are
hence disposed to loot upon Randalls
election as Speaker with no little sus
pecion. His election to this office how.
ever may bo regarded as almost a
foregone conclusion. This the politicians
see and are accordingly- endeavoring
to pursuado their restless associates
that the Hon. Sam is, after all, only a
little in favor of protection, and a
great deal in favor of revenue and
really wants the same thing that they
all want.
The recent abduction of a St. Louis
belle has caused great excitement in
that city. The young lady was first
chloroformed and then carried off by
a couple of ruffians who concealed her in
a room in the city. Their purpose seems
t have been to make money, as they
offered no offense to their victim and
tried to induce her to write a letter
asking for money for her release.
They afterwards delivered her to her
parents without ransom and escaped.
And now it is rumored that Gam
betta's death was due to the incompe
tency of his physicians.
LBITOBIAL OTCS.
San Francisco is seriously threatened
with a water famine.
It is reported that small pox has ap
peared in Walla Walla.
Gladstone's health it is said is so
seriously affected as to necessitate his
early retirement from politics.
The recent floods in Germany and
Austria have done great damage to the
country and have caused the loss of a
great many lives.
Ben Butler says he has no intention
of entering the field as a Senatorial
candidate, and for once his friends ap
pear to believe him.
It is reported from Washington that
ex-Senator Mitchell is likely to be Sec
retary Tellers successor. We hope
this report may soon materialize into
an accomplished fact.
Prineville people, says the "Daily
News," are organizing a fire depart
ment. Recent occurances id that
neighborhoed have created the impres
sion throughout the State that they al
ready supported one pretty active fire
(ing) company.
Some enterprising individual has
counted thirty rich men in New Yoik
whose aggregate wealth amounts to
621,000.000. Wonder if these men
have solved that camel and needles eye
problem! Won't somebody count the
Lrzarus now
The memorable "fifteen puzzal" is
being revived. As eur insane asy
lum is not yet completed and our pres
ent facilities for taking care of incurable
lunatics is somewhat limited, it would be
well for beginners to emigrate to some
other state in tho early stages of the
disease.
An agent of the firm of R. E. Ken
dall Co. General Bilks, with special
Attention to Grain and Stock Swindles
Chicago 111. is on his way to southern
Oregon. Wonder if he is looking
after that Snipes check 1 Linkvilleis a
little dull just now, and that beet sugar
man over there would enjoy a victim
about the caliber of Kendalls agent.
The. House has passed the
pencion bill which appropriates $85,
003,000 for the payment of pensions.
Now brother Democrats, sharpen your
penclis and sail in. It would'n seem
right if you did not howl every time
a pension bill is passed. Tho "Times"
might work in something about op
pressed women being neglected by this
bill, to make its objection moro effective.
One provision ef the proposed new
charter for San Francisco is especially
worthy of notice. It provides for the
arrangement of places for tho detention
of witnesses, separate and apart from
the common jail. It is a shame
that a person, because he is unable to
furnish -bail, should be locked up with
criminals, simply because ho happens
to be an important witness in a crimi
nal case and this provision should'be
adopted.
The bill known as the American
shipping bill has been passed by tho
House. Several amendments were
made to the original bill but no im
portant changes in its practical ap
plication was effected. Several weeks
ago we gave a summary of this bill.
It is to behoved that some measure
looking to the revival of our shipping
interests may bo adopted and this bill
appears to reach the principle difficulty.
The King of Burmah has four queens
and he is considered on tho high road to
prosperity, says an exchange. Now
.vhat's the use of going away off to
some out of the way corner of the
world for such an item as that. Why
not patroaize home productions? We
could name a dozen men right here
who have been known to have four
aces; and four kings is a common hand
for our expert poker players. Many
a man in this country has had four
queens and did'nt prosper with them
either.
A bill has. been introduced in the
California Legislature compelling hotel
keepers to post up notices in each room
warning guests net to blow out the gass
and instructing them how to turn it otF.
In view of the number of deaths caused
by blowing out the gass some such
measure would seem advisable. Any
body ought to know better than to
blow out the gass but there are agreat
many good people who do not, and if
hotel keepers will not make provision
to protect such people they ought to be
compelled to.
As a matter of news, we may remark
that the Presidential stew is still sim
mering. McDonald of Indiana is being
parboiled over a slow Democratic fire
and Sen. Edmunds of Vermont occupies
the attention of Republicans. -General
Sherman has written a letter to Pri
vate Dalzell of Cincinnati beseeching
that enthusiastic patriot to give him a
rest, and permit him to spend his de
fining years in peace. If there is a
man in this United States who does
not want to be President that man is
General Sherman.
Polk, the ex-treasurer of Tennessee,
has been indicted for embezzling 480,
000 belonging to the State. Having
sacked the treasury and .secured the
above neat little sum he sauntered
away to "green fields and pastures
new." But theminions of the law
began poking around and finally
poked up this preambulating Polk,
promptly bagged him-and carried him
off. He now languishes in "durance
vile" and will no doubt shortly begin
serving the State at a much less salary
than formerly.
They havea new game up in Penn
sylvania. It is called "purring;" It
is played exclusively bj men and
only two persons can play at
a time. It consists in each person
kicking the others shins. Tho one
wno is tne most active Kicxer nnu
can endure .the most punishment gen
erally comes off first best. Mules are
not permitted to play. A couplo of
loose lunatics "purred" for 250 n side
jgyitlj-at'PHhdalphia- and th?y kip
up the game until their legs looked like
old fashioned churns bottom down.
"Purring" is supposed by many to be
Pennsylvania jargon for peeling and as
a shin dig this new game may be
considered a completo success.
Governor Stoneman has already
scored one blunder in the mutter of ap
pointments. Some time sinco he made
a little speech at a banquet tendered
him in San Francisco in which, speak
ing of the State militia, he said that if
he could not find a suitablo man in the
ranks, to fill tho office of Adjutant
General he would advocate the entire
abolition of tho militia system. One
of the Governors first official acts was
the appointment of George B. Cosby as
Adjutant General of the Militia. This
gentlemans military experiance was
acquired in the confederate-army; and
many of the Governors friends are not
disposed to regard this fact as sufficient
excuse for the violation of his self
imposed obligation. So far, Gover
nor Stoneman has not been heard
to recommend the abolition of the
malitia system but he will no doubt
make good his promise. Democratic
officials always do you know.
The bill for the relief of Fitz-Jbhn
Porter has at last passed the Senate.
It provides that he shall be re-stored to
the office from which the judgment
of the court-martial expelled him,
but he shall not be entitled to
any pay during the time ho has
been out of the service. Thin is.
at best, but a shabby compro
misp, and resemble the old scotch
verdict of "not proved." If Porter is
entitled to be reinstated in the army,
it is because, he was wrongfully ex
pel led, and if this is true, it is an act of
great injustice to deny him his salary.
If the judgment of the court that
originally condemned hin: was wrong,
no man has suffered a morehumiliating
injustice at the hands of this Govern
ment than he; and the least re
compense that the Government could
make, would be to give him the salary
he would have earned as well as to
return his commission. This
whole Porter case is a jumble of
counter statements and contradictions,
and seems to be one of those things
that "no fellow can find out." Porter
should, however have th9 benefit of the
doubt and it is probably this more
than anything else which has brought
about tho present compromise. The
bill has still to run the gauntlet of the
House and :s likely thero to meet with
more effective opposition.
