A DEMOCliATW VIEW OF IT.
Tho people of Ibo country at larfjo

government is printing for freo dia
tribntiou b work in fonr yolnmes,
containing addresses. niossngos, proc
lamations, and olber stato papers, of
tbo president of tbo United State?,
from Washington to Cleveland.

will bo able, free of cost, to fill
sparo room witb this precious gift
from tbo govcrnmont.
Four volumes will not bo sufficient
and it is suggested tbat a fifth volume
bo added, to be devoted entirely to
Mr. Cleveland's public papers. It is
all very well to put Washington and
Jefferson and Jackson between the
saiao covers, but Mr. Cleveland's
elaborate and notablo messages and
other papers deserve a separate vol
ume. They mark a now era in tbo
history of our government, and they
should not bo mixed up with tbo
crudo effusions of the earlier presi
dents. Atlanta Constitution.
El&borato preparations uro being
mado for the Atlanta exposition, and
the attractions to bo presonted will
undoubtedly attract thousands. It
is estimated by tbo managers tbat
the daily attendanco for ninety con-
becntivo days will bo 15,000. Tbo
beauty of tbo location, tbo charming
weather during tbo fall months, and
tbo refined hospitality of tho south
erners will make ones visit delightful
The display of exhibits will bo mag
nigcent and enormous, as evidenced
by tbo unprecedented applications
for space. It depends largely on A.

Jodgo Riddle, John Hall, C. W.

of Eugene, and gentlemen further
north, whether the majestic and lm
perial powers of Oregon shall com
mand the admiration of visiting
throngs. Conscious as these gentle
men must be, of tbo superior excel
lenco of their productions, consider
ations of prido and profit should
stimulate them to prepare a display
that would receivo the enconiums of
half a million of people.

Russia lias not only done a neat thing
in the diplomatic line by guaranteeing
the new Chinese loan, but will also
make a very neat profit on it. She
guaranteed an SOmiliion dollar loan, on
which China will pay 7 per cent,; then
lwrrowed the money in the financial
centers of Western Europe at -1 per cent
thus making S00,000 a year interest
The security she obtains from China is
not yet known, but it is believed to be
territorial concession, which will enabl

The Second Hanging.
La8t week wo gnvo nil account of tbo
first hanging for murder In Oregon ac
cording to our recollection. Wo will
now givo a short account of Ihc second
hanging for tbo samo critno committed
by another man. It was in 1851 or '5i2
that a man tby tho nanio of bvoruian
was publicly oxocutod for tbo murder of
ouo Hooker. Eyorman bad boon ac
cused of stealing a watcli ly Hooker, and
Everman being highly incensed nt tho
charge which was afterwards proven
BeotuM to havo "been determined on tho
death of Hookor. Evorman was board-
iog at tho Iioueo of ono Sam Goff, and
Hooker was plowing in a Hold thrco-
fourths of a niilo distant, hverman ap
proached tho Hold iu a stealthy manner
hastening his steps when Hooker's back
was turned, and at times crawling on Ins
bauds and knees until ho reached the
comer of tho field, whero ho lay in wait
for Hooker. Hookor was comhig up
towards Evermnn, and whon ho reached
tho end of tho furrow, ho turned and
started directly away from tho ono lying
in ambush. Everman them aimed and
discharged his gun directly at Hooker,
killintr him almost instantly. This was
a most cold-blooded murder, so provem
on tho trial, andEvprman was convicted,
sentenced and executed in lho presence
of a large number of people. This, like
lho first murder, occurred in Polk county
Tho writer hereof was foreman of the
jury that sat upon his trial.
O. C. Pratt was the Judge lwforc
whom Everman was tried. Pratt was a
suave, dignified and impartial Judge,
nud was a highly esteemed citizen. He
removed to California somewhere in the
50's, and attained to high distinction at
the bar in that State. The causo of his
removal to California is. well known by
some of tho early settlers, who still sur
vive him. Pratt was a staunch Demo
crat, and the bitter criticisms of his
pretensions to prominence in the new
territory of Oregou, mado by the lead
ing Democratic paper then published
here, liad much to do with his removal
to Calioniia. Pratt as a counsel secured
the first divorce between man and wife
that ever occurred in Orcgsn. The
claim for divorce was made before and
granted by our first Territorial Legisla
ture. S.
How It Works.
It was as a sop to tho farmers that tho
duty on burlaps and on grain sacks
madu from burial was repealed, and
was as a eop to tho planters that the duty
on cotton ties was repealed. Neither the
farmer nor tho planter has been benefit
ed to lho extent ot a tent by these spe
cious provisions of tho Wilson act. But
tbo government has lost $2,000,000 a year
or thereabout. Cotton ties, in common
with all other products of iron and steel
aro advancing in price, and burlaps, de
spite the tariff reduction of 2 per cent
are stationary, witb a rising tendency.
lint tho farmers and planters will bo
"taxed" how fond tho free traders used
to bo of that word, and how carefully
they now eschew its use to mako up tho
deficiency in revenue caused by the re
peal of the burlap duty. Tho revenue
derived from imports of burlaps stood
tnua in tho last year of application
of the McKinley law:

ASHES TO CURE CUTS.
Rnulan Physicians Revive on Olil Cossack
Method of Treating W'oanda.
Somo of tho best known physicians in
Russia aro strongly advocating tho adop
tion in tho govcrnmont hospitals of an
old Cossack custom of treating cuts nud
wounds with ashes. Tho Cossack peas
antry havo treated cases in this fashion
from timo Immemorial, and Dr. Posh
koff, a Russian physician who has been
studying tho treatment, recently said in
an intcrvlow in a Russian medical jour'
nal:
"I strongly recommend tho treating
of sovcro cut3 and wounds with ashes.
Experiment has convinced mo of tho
thorough efficacy of tho treatment, and
in addition it is cheap, takes littlo timo
to arrange and docs away with bulky
bandages, which havo always been tho
bono of nurses and physicians. Tho best
ashes aro those resulting from tho burn
ing of somo cotton stuff or linen, and
only a very thin layer should bo applied.
If tho wound has been mado by somo
dirty instrument and tbcro is danger of
blood poisoning, it should bo first wash
ed thoroughly with a lotion. Tho ashes
with tho blood form a hard substance,
under which tho most severe cuts heal
with rcmarkablo rapidity."
Dr. PasbkofT has experimented with
ashes on 28 cases of cuts, and only two
of tho entire number failed to result
successfully. These cases would have
been cured, tco, had not tho nurses fail
ed to apply prescribed lotions to tho
wounds before tho physicians took them
in charge. It is extremely probable
that tho ashes treatment will bo adopt
ed in tho St. Petersburg hospitals before
'ong.
