A bill has introduced a bill in Con gress to rtquire luarniiers of "that body to take an oath that ttay have not in any way bought their way thpro. Tha oath can be inacb. mere specified than it is expressed in the hill. It should be amended to say all that is possible to cover theojaestion of cor ruption and bribery, an then should be forced to an issue. The people 'would like to see what members will dj with such a bill. Al present the world 'belie''Mtbat!'election'ofs,Ccni- gressmen and Senators are secured hy corrupt means in?a majority of cases. The most important thing to be Becured'itilhifT country at thistime is good and honest legislation. This never can corns from corrupt men and the man is coriupt wh sucures his seat in Congress by tho use ef money or promise of place or any inducement of the sort. It is only honest to sub mit one's claims to the people and nbidu the result. ''Ojr liberty" U worthiittluif we arc to be governed by men who buy offices. "Popular government" "is a base fraud J if it ine?.U8 that thobouhojhavo votes shall sell them to the highest bidder "Freedom" U not 'S3 respectable as despotism if citizem are so bass as to barter their suffrage for selfish ends. We had best begin again with another "revolutionary war" if Congressman aro all corrupt. Tho list of grievances will bojotijj enough to warrant it. Willamette. "Furnicr." A New York dicpath of the 4th ui'-t. hud the following: "Jacob Tl'oman, an old actor, died at the Fon-ut Lllome-for actors on Tuesday His body was shippHd to Lancaster to be cremated, according to his ex pressed wish. He was the support of Forest and tho elder Booth frequantly on tho Pacific coast." Thoman brought the first theatrical troupe that ever played to an .Oregon audience. Tt was iu 1856, and the troupe con sisled' of throe men and two women; Lizzfo Gordon, who afterward mar ried Charles Stewart, a Portland sa loon keeper, being tho star. They droy overland from California, and played at all the principal towns, in cluding Salem, Oregon City and Port laud. Thtir entertainment opened w:h a comsdv,jthc!ii Miss "Gordon pro sentcd some features of the torpsio horean art, and tho sucv concluded with a farce. Many oldtimers will renipniber the advent of the theatre, as it created quite a furore here at iho time. Nature's own true Laxativo.

It is said thai no less than scyen teen Vance, blood relatives of the North Carolina senator by that name, now hold positions under the -government. Tins discounts: anything to be fouud under republican administra tion. It the senator is as successful in locating Yances during tho remain der of tho administrative term as in the first ten months, everybody will be willing to admit that Mr. Cleveland is considerably in advancu of his pre decessors in filling ofthes by families. The Atlanta "Constitution" esti mates Fioaida'a loss by fro.en oranges at SlO,000,"O00. It will take a good deal of hard work to make np this im mense loss. Tha check the iitastro pue will give to immigrants and the future development of the country will be more disastrous than the actual lost to the growing fruit, though it cannot be computed in dollars and cents. Km Several new strikes are reported in the Colville country, says the Spokane "Chronicle," prominent among which is the Sunset, onncd by Benoist, Moore and savorai others in Portland. Tha indication for first class camp, lull ef life ami vigor are constantly brigbtei ir-g, and the outlook for the coming beacon is encouratjiug. A Representative Body. Tho Anti-Chinese Congress" that will assemble in this city on tho 13tb inst., will boa meeting of the representative) men of the Pacific Northwest. Two Councilman of this city are delegates to the Convention, both of them from dif ferent organizations. Puget Sound will send nine men whose names h&va been identical with the prosperity and development of that country for-' many years past. In fact every labor organ izatien, Turn Veruin, ' secret and b ncoIenfsccitty in the-Northwest will send delegates who hava been preri ously instructed how to cast their votes. Tiie effact of tho convention ean only ,bo nurmistil. However, tha chancss m god that within twen'y. four hours after adjournment John Chinamen will know that he is'n longor wanted in Portland, and wilt n sixty days ho will have entirely disap peared, aud the Congress will not p.. his transportation either. No vio lence will bo asfd. All orgir.izationa that have noi jet pelsctfd delegates should do so at ones Only a f- v days intervene. vNnws." Fur some time past the inmates of tlui county j,ul have been ut.-aurlod in their slumbtirs by most unearthly eouuds apparently jcoming from around and 'auofO-' the 'tells." 'So'loud haVo been tho noises that even tha shcr'ttN family in the dwelling rooms above tliij jail wore kept awake by tlitui. ihuy sf ciimd to culminute in special fu silmla on the Hecond et eninc of Fen ton's fclny in 111 cell, and, jitobalily aitlwd by bad concciewce, fiighteuvVi' that individual marly out of his set -'"; hn imagined he heard groans, grittn t testh, etc.,- too numeioui to ln.'iitir.u, and declared that Fiilaxou's guwt n thorpabouts.

Which is its ghosts, mischief, plans for escape, bad coutcince of prisoners, or wbicl.) From men who have returned fro-u the line of the narrow guigo railroad we learn that the Chinese have not been discharged. On tha contrary, their number has bean increased by at least 80 more during the past two or thriv week?, and there are now about 150 Chineso working on the lino and but GO white men. We aro not surprised at this new.-, for vte never hail tha slightest Loufidence in tho oily-tougnod alien monev-'ender who has managi ment of that road. Hin excusi, tJ suppose, is that ho cannot get whilo men to work at bis munificent wagfH of $1 25 per day wilhoat board. But this is not tha case, for we haVo seen sevorol men who havo been tbero ami report that they were unable to por- cure work even at such 'meager wages. i Signs op Sprg. Spring is com1- -ing and for the last ten days it alinos-t seemed as iftho rustle of her robe", could be heard anions; the branches ot the lilac bushes, the buds on which aro swelling and showing signs of ex panding into leaves.

However, she has left signs of advent, ns in tho gardens) around torw crocus, snowdrops, daisies, violets and pansies are blooming and daffodils, tulips and other early flowers are making vig orous growth. "Oregonian." A. G. Bledsol, of Eureka, Califor nia, an attorney and h member of tho Citizens' Committeo at Eureka, who arrived at Sin Francisco recently, says that Eureka has gained by tho expulsion of Chinese The new strain laundry employs about 100 white men and women. There aro about sixty Chinese persons remaining in Hum boldt county. Recently a 'Chinese highbinder appeared at Eureka, trying1 to lease land for Chinamen. Ho wa'j informed that ho must leave Eutcl.:l, and was escorted to the steamer and returned to San Francisco. , The track on the California it Ore gon railroad extension is said to be laid to within two miles of Portuguese Flat, and within a few days that place will be the general beadqu.it Urs for most of tha force grading between thwre and tunnel 10, which is two milfts south of Bjuihern's.
