ENT in posting'our boot for the year JS$4 we find there are a number of txrsons fn debied to us in small amountt which aggre gate several thousand dollars. Like al wotl erery body else, we are sadly in need of money with which to pay our indebted' nest not for investment or speculation. Our creditors are in the same fix, and are crowding us.

CO, 'Irregularities at tha Soldiers Home'' afford certaiu visa ed itors, who are not familiar with the facts, a topic for discussion. It is a well known fact here in Bose- bnrg that the members of I ho board nerer did wore in harmony, and there has always been palling and hauling in everything nndertaken. We opine the "irregularities" will prove to be nothing but a difference of opinion between the commission ers as to tho best methods to be pur seed in the management of the work. The official vote for governor of Oregon is as follows: Lord, 41,139; Gailoway, 17.SG5; Kennedy, 1.932; Pierc?, 26,123. Irord had pluralities in every county bat five Baker, Coo. Jackson. Wallowa, Harney the last named gave Galloway a plurality and the other four were for Pierce. Clatsop's voto for Lord tied the com bined opposition. Six rounti&3 gave Lord majorities over all Columbia, Gilliam, ilanou, iloUnomah, Wasco, Washington. Some of tho very smart represen tatives in Salem ere uow fixing the legal rate for printing. AVhy don't -they establish, the price for wood. 1 amber, books and all other supplies needed by tho county Thero wonld certainly be'jnst as mnch sense to fix tho rate for one commodity as another. Another bill introduced limits the fees of attorneys, no mat ter what tha contract These extra ordinary legislators should regulate everybody's business with a general omnibus bill, and settle the whole matter at once. Xow that the re-election of Senator Dolph is assured, the Oregonian is already paving tbe way for the defeat of Senator Mitchell two years hence. Before tho caucus was held whereby the election of Dolph wa3 practically assured the Oregonian had not one word to say against caucus rale, bnt as soon as such action did take placs tbe Oregonian at once announ ced that it "has not been nor ever will be a caucus-driver In other words, it proposes to fight Senator Mitchell from now until after the election of. ins successor two years hence. Salem Post: Representative Hebl brede, of Douglas county, made a good speech in the house on Tues day afternoon against the state pay ing for papers for use of the members of the legislature. He declared that they might pass the resolntion, but that he wonld take no paper. He said he was able to pay for bis own newspapers. Neither did be want any penknife. He could buy his own. Ho came to the legislature pledged to economize, and he was troincr to do it. Mr, Seblbrede spoke well, has tbe right metal in him, and will make a useful member. The Review's special holiday edition is far superior to any hereto fore issued. It consists of 12 pages and a supplement, and iscbockfnll of items interesting to tbe hotneseeker. While it contained a few errors and made a few omissions, yet any person at all acquainted with tbe work of issuing each a paper well known that the errors and omissions wero unintentional on tbe part of the publishers, and are probably more deeply regretted by tbem than ,are the aggrieved parties themselves. The publishers of tbe Review are certainly entitled to much credit for their enterprise. The friends of Senator Dolph are naturally jubilant over tbe result of tbe republican caucus last week, and 'seem to think be secured a great vic tory. Well, perbnpi he did; but to our way of thinking be bad a very close call much closer in fact than we expected. Out of tho 72 votes in tbe caucus bo secured but three more than enough to give him tbe nomina tion and six less than the number re quired to elect. However, we be lieve U to be tho duty of every, repub lican member of the legislature to now vote for Dolpb, lhat being the xpress3d wish of a majority, oven though small, of tho republican .mem bers of both hpuees. HOME, SWEET, HOME. In the closely contested ruco for woaltli, we stnrt from the harbor of home. Blissful harbor! There we leave nil the pleasure!" and privileges enjoyable, mid embrace tbe steru niul rugged realities of life. Thero we Fpfiid tbo nprmgtime of life. amid tbe most Miblii-ie prospect mid eager oxpclMt ions. Thero is where we iihel to gl- ry in child-like frivol- ties, w In ii our iuiHgitintion was jet yunug iu d'-vflopiui'iit. There v can lounge round about without s-bocki-ig the ni'.l.stj of the hom ciicK. Then, in tlm puvcncn of father and mother, to who:ti wo ov every noble thought, word or deed; to whose watchful cate ami tender affections in earlit-r years ve are in debted; thero wn can tulk and cou sole iu hours of adversity, when the storms of life are raging aud tho bil lows are tossiug high; it is amid the tumultuous and turlmlont roarot the tempest when we ilee homeward for comfort and commiseration. When the American republic was wrapped in the clouds of civil strife, and the and was crimsoned with tho blood of its own sons, there in Virginiti, one moonlight evening the two armies wero encamped, .the ouo on the north side of Iheiivpr and the other on tbe south side. Both armies,bitter with prejudice, woro tantalizing each other with musical slnrs and inMnna'ioiis. but as tho sun lowered iu tb vat, a I the elo tueuts were becounug nvelop d in dnrkness, au old risn, forgetting tho battles fought, aud enraptured with the thought of home, bummed "Home, Sweet Hoiu!" in the -South em ranks. Th liMid cancht up the air from tbe old man. a-i 1 as tbo music echoed over the river, tho Northern army struck up the aip, tbe samo sook was emit;, the tumult of war ceased for tbe time being in their breast, and a glad sbont went up from both armies as thoughts of home and its happine- thronged it .. '...I , 'Tl,.l m.w "Home. Sweet Homo." has lulled to rest many a tronbltd heart, and may he or she, who reads lhee lines over hold in grateful remembrance their childhood'n home, fur iu that home have been associations with father and mother, brother and sifter, assO' ciations tho memory of which must ever cling around tbe memory with tbe fondest of recollections to tbe end of mortal life. Lego. flore About "Honest Money." To tub Editor: After reading Lego's article on "honest roonev" in Jyour issue of January 14tli. I feel like asking space for a Tew words about money too. Le; says, all money is honest money, and then names tue various kinds in circul tion aud used as money. Now, I do not intend to take issue with I.cso, or any one else iu ll.is matter, but I niali to call attentionto-a-fc-'. Xiw u. names but one kind of money as honest "Gold coin is honest money, bavins the full fonctions of a legal tender." All tbe other kinds have an it or a because attached. I wish people to realize this fact. There is no where among civiliied people any doubt about gol.l, regardless of legislation; it is accepted without question at fixed valce uer ouuee or grain of btanda.nl fineness. This is beyond question the fact now. Do not get ex cited and say "gold bog." No, person ally, I rather favor silver for coin than gold, because I believe a given number of silver dollars will do more work than gold, up to a certain point, ther tbe gold will do it cheaper on account of its smaller bulk. And right here per haps is where gold will always prevail over silver. 1, with my neighbors A and Baud C, agree fully as to money, and use silver. Bat here is neighbor l who will have nothing but gold when we deal with him, and thus the combination is t poiled. Well, we say he u cranky an l we deride we will coerce him and make bim take oar citver. What is the result in such a esse. He will cease to do business with u, snd thus get beyond oar law and keep to his gold in spite of us. This brings as to serious thoughts. It will r.ot suffice to say that D's wealth makes his preference Net at all. He may be poorer than any of us, and in fact qnite iguorant about matters ofificar.ee, etc , except thai. lien be has gold be knows be has the kind of money that any one will take for what be may waut and in any quantity . it li on t question. I asked a pirsou,t!iis ques tion thf other day: If you are to get a certain roam! sum if money ana .canted to Le absolutely tale as to vetting the greatest value for it ao where, u bat kind would yoa take? "Ob, paper money is good enough for me," be replied. That is not the question. I mefn money that you cccld take and uso any where. "Well," he replied, after a littlestudy, "I would be obliged to take gold." This, then, settles it; tho other fellow over whom we have no control, forces us in order to be safe, to make gold the standard, too. "Oh, but ajB my friend, this is not right at all." Granted, but this teems to be one of the things we have not as yet been able to overcome. And I fear tbn veiy thing will always stand in the way of unlimited coinago of silver by out government -it any flxed ratio to gold regardless of its commercial value. Another matter: I have be fore me a statement made by national banks of deposit made on settling day nearest to June labt, giving the amo'iot deposited in money and iu checks, and find in tbe east where bank's are plenty, that the monpy deposits were much Lirger than in the south and west, Oregon doing more than one-half its bus iness with checks, some ttstca running over 75 per cent in cheefcp, fijowing clearly that honest names is just as good as honett money for closing business with, whilst thrift and economy is of more real value than money. II. En. Plainuealeu: Iii your issue of last Monday, I read Li:o's idea of ''hou eit money." He says Kold Is honest money, utinjj the indicative mode, tho strongest uianner of asserting a fact. Silver and paper, he sajs, "uouW be honest money" under certain conditions, I.nelng the potonlial mode, tho usual man i ner of declaring what onaht to be. Gold then is out of tho category of debate it is honest money, u truism which no ouo imputes. Tho question of monoy thou la narrowed dawn to silver and greenbacks. Greenbacks "ironW tw honest inoaoy," says Lego, when it is "rni-o l aboro dis trust by its intet changeability for gold and silver and convertibility into interest bearius bonds of the ration. " That is tho rock on which we founder. Groen b.icks wero made a Icgil tcmlor by tho flat of tho nation, and yet it is a histori- :d fact that at ono tiitio they woitil ))iss for only 8-1 cuts on tliodollar mark you too, while Jtho nation imeratively de clared everv dullnr of face value to ho 100 eon s. Was it au honest dollar then while thus dit-countcd? The government took it tit its fee value, und creditors had to; bnt no ono else would exchaueo gold or protierty at its face value. Tho government paid it out aiul took it buck at face value. The government kept its pledge except redeeming its notes with gold, that it could not do till 1ST'.), after it had accumulated gold ei.ough to re- leoc.i its paper. The same thing is row tho cine. The government's redemption in gold on demand makes its notes ;ih good ;us gold. It is to ktep treasury notaa on n parity with gold that the sec retarv of the troas'irv Ins to resort to selling bond for gold in ordijr to redeem its notes, when presented A similar condition eiiao vith regard to eilver. The government has outstaixl ing tl ""0,000.000 woith of silver eeriill cates iued for silver I nllinn under the Sheiman act. "t'lie secretary of the treasury," mi read. ihulaw, "nlej I under such regulations he mat j,rerib :e deem such notes in gohi ur cilvur C"iii ut ms uiseieiion. iin p.--ent an I prior secretaries havs all paid ilie- notes on (temaiKl in gIi. :u.-li c.-urre, im-v have claimed, is the only wmv v keep legal tender and treasury notes and m! vel on a pirily Willi .'
