Blaine In New York.
Blaine made a journey up the Hud
son and Mohawk valleys through the
State of New York last Wednesday
and Thursday, Sept. 24th and 25th.
All along the route people turned out
by thousands and tens of thousands to
welcome the foremost statesman of
Ainerici. At Yonkers, AlbanvfUtica,
the home of Conkliiig) Herkimer, Sy
racusp, Auburn and Buffalo immense
cro a "greeted the Repulicun htand
MllMeaml -cheeretUfornthe?nexv
Presiflent.-- At Syracuse he'reumiiied
over nirjht and witnessed a great torch
lisht demonstration. James G.
Blaine is the most popular man in
America to-day, nnd will be elected by
an overwhelming majority. Wliwre
ever Blaine and Logan go they receive
a continuous ovation, while the 'Demo
cratic candidates receive but little at
tention. Blaine and Igan are now
almost certain to receive the electoral
votes of New York, and, in any event,
their election is as sure as anv future
event can be.
Blaine is a thorough-blood Ameri
can. He believes in America. He
rejoices in her progress and prosperity,
lie predicts her greatness. He is sure
of her ability to maintain her place
among the great powers of the earth
He announces a policy that will ex
tend her commercial na well as political
influences. He is no croaker. He
does not go about whining ihat we are
in danger of losing our liberties; that
we are drifting toward a dangerous
centralization; that we are becoming
intolerably corrupt, and that as a
nation we are threatened with insol
vency of public character. He knows
better. He believes in the robust
maithcod of the American people, in
their disposition and ability to pay
their debts, guard and preserve their
liberties, maintain their reputation for
honor and honesty, and build up a
nationality (hut Miull surpass all ether
nationalities, p-a or present; a nation
abundant in resources', happy in their
political and religious freedom, and
clothed, housed and fed as no other
people hae been on the fuce of the
globe. ' Blaine believes in the people,
the American people, and the people
beliete in him.
A wide awake business man of San
Francisco, in conversation with a ro
j-orter said: "I am ture tin.es will be
better within two months There are
now at sea one hundred and fifty ves
sels destined for San Francisco, Port
land and Sound ports. There must
have cargoes and will put several mill
ions of dolhrs in circulation, of which
Oregon will receive her proportion.
Then after the election is over and
Blaine iuaururatrd, I look for four
years of unprecedented prosperity. I
have witnessed a coodly number of
Presidential election and mv obera
tion has been, that just (lending a Pres
idential election, times were duliest."
An exchange hays "In these days
a girl will take about twenty thousand
pirces of silk, of all shades, shapes and
sizes, and put them all neatly together,
and then embroider dainty birds and
blushing flowers, and libboned tain
borines, and all sorts of exquisite little
conceits upon it. And after this she
lines it with fky-blue satin aud puts a
luxurious cord around the edge, and
when all this roathetic object is finish-'
ed it is called a crazy quilt. The quilt
is all right it's the girl that crazy."
Mrs. Garfield, the mother of the late
President, can be seen almost any day
walking 'about the grounds or bitting
in her arm chair on the shaded lernnda
at Mentor. On Sundav she is fre
quently at church with other members
of the family, and is able to take n smm
in, or alight from, the family carrince
with little assistance. She has passed
her eighty-third birthday, and seems
to be in the enjoyment of her mual
good health.
China possesses the longest bridge
in the world. It is at Lagans, over
an arm of the China sea, and is five
miles long, built entirely of stone, 70
feet high, with a roadway of 70 feet
wide, and has 300 arches. The para
pet is a balustrade, and each of the
pillars, which are 75 feet apart, sup
ports a pedestal on which, is placed a
lion, 21 feet long, made of one block
of tnarble.

Wheat In England.
Wheat is so low even in England
that many farmers say they will feed
their grain to stock rather than selLit
at present prices. If this is so in
England what ought farmers to do
here? Meats are very high throughout
our northwest in comparison with the
price of wheat.
Naturally one of the significant facts
attending the low price of wheat in
Great Britain is a steady decline in

M'JXtaSKT'VHVSr''" "i- - "-.-"S" I
fcTucU17?tbafrheftrcP-hl
commanded a few years ago, 'ar.d the
decline is so marked as to command
the attention of politicians and econo
mists throughout Europe. The poss
ession of lands has been regarded in
the pa.st in England as the test of a
gentleman. Great bankers, merchants
and manufacturers possessing heredi
tary wealth, and with incomes gie.itly
exceeding and derived from the poive.i
sion of land, hive never ranked in
England even with the poorer owners
of the soil to whein it had been trans
mitted through heirship and descent.
That fact has given to land a fictitious
or imaginary value of which ii K being
shorn by tha hard law.s of finance and
tr.idc now assumiiis sovereignty
throughout the world.
But the rich English barons in
w!iose lands mines of iron, coal, salt
and tin are successfully worked are
regarded as ol greater importance than
the peers who li.ve simply on their
rentrolls, and this changed relation is
becoming more marked as rents are
declining while mines are becoming of
greater value. An English landed
e-tate is no longer of excessive value
beciusc it is attached to' a title, if its
revenues are small. The woild, even
in England, is growing democratic, anil
money is a great Ieveler. Wealthy
manufactures, traders and speculator
are obtaining consideration, which
formerly was impossible. Thus the
facility with which food can now be
imported into England fioin foreign
countrizs nnd itscousrquent cheapness
there are producing effects far wider
and deeper than the mere delino in
the value of lands. '-Oregouian."
There is kicking against Cleveland
in the South as well as in the North.
Colonel John S. Swan, an ex Confeder
nte Colonel of West Virginia, is out in
a card announcing his reasons for sup
porting Blaine nnd Logan. Hfireto
fore the Colonel has boasted of being
an unreconstructed rebel and a Bour
bon of the Krt water, but he cannot
stomach Cleveland's nomination, or the
party platform. He arraigns the
Democratic members of Congress for
refusing to put our navy on a footing
with those of other countries, and says
that they are neither statesman, patri
ots, nor men endowed with common
sense. He also denounces Democratic
opp.i.ition to a Piolective Tariff, and
calls upon his at my comrade and the
young men of the Sonth to come out
and take a stand in defense of the
principles advocated by the Republican
party. In closing his letter Colonel
Swan declares that the Democratic
party of lo day is not the party of
twenty-five years ago, and says that
the Republican party has become the
Whig party of old under a different
name. He eulogizes Blaine as a fear
less and just man, endowed with those
arge views that maik'the sUtesin-tn
above all technicalities." "Jleveland

Shaw, a Coloradu suiveyor, reports
that he and his party of .surveyors have
found almost a solid mountain of alum
over a mile square, some of the cliff's
of which rise to an elevation nf 700
fee', above the level of the Gila river.
.Most of i he alum is in an impure
slate, tasting very strongly of sul
phuric acid. Some of the cliffs show
immense quantities of almost pure,
marketable alum. Tn Utah, not far
from this mountain of alum, is a
mountain of rock sa!t and a bed of
sulphur thousands of acres in extent.
Fred. Schwatka Strang, recently ap
pointed to represent Oregon in the
Naval Academy at Annapolis, Mart
land, has passed a cerditable examina
tion for enterance, and is now a cadet
midshipman under the instruction of
the United States.
And now they say West Virginia is
likely to so Republican. It begins to
look as if the Rinunlican nole was o-

A Strange Suicide-
The following account of a strange
suicide appears in the lato New Or
leans dispatches:
S. D. Hale was a well educated and
cultivated negro, who served for a time
on the police force in this city, and
afterward in the Custom House. He
as a man o? family, of good oharac
acter, a Christian church member, and
well esceemed. Ho had a cood wife
and two sons. For the last few months
,ha.had.be?nafflicted'' with sickness,
-which helfelto uo"in:urabfe- -H
thought he was becoming a burden to
his family. Last night he posted hira
self at the side of the track of tho Illi
nois Central road beyond tho station.
An excursion train drew out of the
station, and, as soon as tho engine had
passed, Hale got down on his knees
and laid his neck on the rail. Tho
car wheels passed over it, and in an in
sfaiit i: was dc-capitated. His head
rolled between the rails and the trunk
fell back into the ditch. The conduct
or found on his person a note saying:
''This is no accident. Please do not
stop the men from their work if it can
be helped." The considerate suicide
knew it was'the custom of the police
to arrest employes of railroad trains in
where persons are run over and hold
them until the court ro.ievcs them of
responsibility, a hardship which he
sought to avoid for them. It was
found later that Hale had loft in the
family Bible a letter addressed to his
wife, explaining in touching language
the purposo of his suicide.
Will you be kind enough, sir, to
hold this ram for mo while I open this
gate? it is fastened on tho inside, arid I
muit climb over." This modest re
mark was niado by a man who was
standing at a gate on a lonely road,
tuid'it was addressed to a stalwart sail
or who had just como up. The-only
other object visible on the long, straight
.road was the large black ram, whose .
massive crooked horns were being held
by the man as the two stood quite still
in front of the gate. "Why sartinly,
shipmate," said the obliging tar, as he
se:zed the big horns and relieved tho
first holder. The lattor climbed quick
ly over tho gate. "I thank you very
much," he said politely when ho cot to
the other side. "You will bo suprised
to hear that I never saw that ram be
fo o to-day. Tho brutto attacted mo
about half an hour ago, and we havo
lfen tussling together ever since. As
long as you stand beforo him holding
his horns he can't hurt you much.
Good bye. I hope you will be as lucicy
in getting away from him as I have
been." .It is not known what tho sail
or said. "Ex."
Tho number ox men who have, in
the expression of the streot, left tho
country during the past year, for reas
ons best known to themselves, is notice
able. To our knowltdgo nono of them
are bank centers. When an ordinary
scrub, without the confidunco or re
spect of tho community, leaves tho
country, it is undoubtedly for tha
