Tho fire was in thu houso of Chas. Clements ou Doug las street, neatly oppesito tho court house.

Xcwman of the Oregon Fruit Colony of Columbus, Ohio, who made this office a pleasant call yester day, we leam that the colonv has per fected all arrangements and will soon begin active opirations on their 2S00 acru tract on the North L'mpqua, re ceatly purchased from Sheridan Bros, known as the old Tipton ranch. The colony, which comprises fifty steady and ndustnons men and their families, pur pose setting out this coming fall. 500 acres ol choice fruit trees, principally prunes, and another 500 acres in the near future. Some of the colonists are now hero and more will follow as their labor is required. From a hasty glance at the plans of the colony, as printed in pamphlet form, each of the fifty colo nists will have a deed to twenty-two acres two acres near the center of the tract on which neat residences will bo erected, ten acres planted to prunes and ten acre to other fruits or production at the option of tho owner. The icmaining 1 OX) acres will bo devoted to general farming purposes under the manage ment of a board of directors chosen by the colony. The young colony starts out with every prospect of success, and will, we trust, realize tlieir most san- guiue expectations. We cordially wel come the new comers. Protection From Fire. In view of the fact that fires arc l-e- coming num-iroas the people are begin- ning to ferl uneasy as to the possible re suit for the futnrc while the hydrants are disconntcted from the mains. There ought to bo something done to protect our city in case of fires in the fnture. Dry weather is now approaching and in cao of a fire breaking out tho city might be laid in ashes in an hour or two if wa ler or uther means for extinguishing them be not provided. We would sag cvst thai a in a is met ting be called to cousider the matter and if thought ad visable to ask tho city council to take some active measures to provide against a possible calamity by fire. Tho city council and the Water Co. should either come to some understanding about water for tiro purposes or they should provide other means of protection. Further de lay is delay is dangerous. Ood's Regular Army. Thislittlo band of zealous religious workers aro still holding meotings at the barracks. A new feature has been added to their programme, a violin has been added to (lie musical part, with an agreeable effect. It is not fiddlo it is violin yet it is catgut music all tho same, and Uie dancing is ol a worshipful character, one at a-time, male or female, moving up or down tho stage pleading with sinners to shun the broad and crooked road to hell and seek the straight and narrow path that leads to life eternal. Though their work per tains to man's eternal nappiness or misery, yet they seem very little con ccrned about it. Church Entertainment.

Dyer, which was wrecked on tho French Frigato coral reef, on February 22, was not known until the castaways arrived here from Honolulu on tho cruiser Bennington. No lives were lost in tho disaster, but the eeal hunters say it was only a merci ful dispensation ol Providence that pre yented every ono of them from dying on the sea under a broiling sun, of ptarva tion and thirst. Six members of the crew spent eight days nnd nights in an onen boat without a drop of water an. I but six small cans of preserved fruit. The Election of Senators. Washinotoe, March 17.

"The houso onco passed a similar reso lution." said Senator Mitcholl, "and I believe is ready to pass another. There is a very strong feeling in the senate in favor of tho change, and Senator Palmer, of Illinois, and others are anxious to havo the matter brought up. I am sat isfied wo havo in tho senato a majority in its favor, but whether or not we have the required two-thirds is in doubt.

Russell. Dated at Oakland, Oregon, this 0th day of March, 1890. The U. S. Gov't Reports show Royal Baking Powdet superior to all others. Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U.S. Gov't Report ABSOWIUY MIRE A FEW QUESTIONS. What's tbo matter with the Review? Editorial after editorial is poured out through its classical columns. Shades ofMiltou! There is an old Greek say ing, that runs something like this, "Whom tho gods desire to destroy they first mako mad." Tho ovil genii bas touched tbo brain of the Review man with his infernal wand, and be rages like a caged beast, nnd threatens dire things to tho American Protective Asso ciation. Is the Review American? Does it belieyo in the great fundamental doctrine, of free speech, free press, and free conscience? Macanley says: "Ref ormations never go backward, bnt always forward, with accelerating force." Pray how is tho Review going to stamp this curse" this "infamy" out? Will ha and his force, armed cap-a-pie with "pop guns," "toy pistols," fully "accoutered liko a knight of old" ride us down and utterly annihilate us? We thought we bad a right to exist by a great funda mental law of the land, for which our fathers fought, but taking lessons from the canBistry of Rome, the Review has learned that we ought to be "purged from the earth" and it proposes to cease not in its battle until the A. f. A. is no more forever. Then the language of the Review is delectable as well as its ideas Read and be convinced. Say, Mr. Re view, do you know that one of the laws of polemics is to state the principle you are fighting just as it is, and then show its inconsistency with truth? Say, did you ever study logic? I trow not, from your editorials, or much of anything else. But let me put this principle of A. P. Aism to the Review. 1. Loyalty to true Americanism which knows neither birth place, race, creed, nor party, is the hrst requisite lor mem i - -- 5 n - oersnip in ine American xroiecuve Association. I want an answer, "yes" or "no. Does the Review believe this? Don't equivocate. Don't squirm out of it. Say "yes," or say "no," or forever be silent in tho future on A. P. Aism. The American Protective Assoc ia lion is not a political party and does not control the political affiliation of its members, but it teaches them to be in tensely active in the discharge of their political duties in or out of party lines, because it believes that all problems confronting onr people will be best solved by a conscientious discharge of the duties of citizenship by every indi vidual. What is wrong about this, eh? 3. While tolerant of all creeds it holds that subjection to and support of any ecclesiastical powers not created and can- trolled by American citizens, and which claim equal it not greater sovereignty than the Government of the United States of America, is .irreconcilable with American citizenship. It is therefore opposed to the holding o! offices in the national, state or municipal governments by any subject or supporter of such ecclesiastical power. Is this not American? What is wrong about it? Say. 4. We uphold the constitution of the United States of America, and no por tion of it more than its guaranty of re ligious liberty ; but we bold this religous liberty to be guaranteed to the individ ual, and nol to mean thai under lis pro tection any un-American ecclesiacticism can claim absolute control over the edu cation of children growing up nnder the Stars and Stripes. What is wrong about that? Is not that American? 5. We consider the non-sectarian free public schools the bulwarks of American institutions, and the best places for the education o! American children. To keen them such, we protest against the employment of subjects of any un-American ecclesiastical power as officers or teachers of our public schools. Do you beliove that it is sound Ameri can to turn over tho public schools to sectarian control, be that control in the hands of Baptists, Methodists, Congrega tionalism, Presbyterians or popists? Or do you believe in public schools at all? Answer. We will drop this for the time, and no tice ono ol your correspondents from Roseburg signing himself "C". Of course we are pretty well satisfisd who this protestant is that raves about the 'bisoted. noisy and silly A. P. A." for his speech "bewrayeth" him. Of course two wrongs neyer made a right. Roger Williams was a patriot, and a benefactor of humanity, but as has been said, sup pose tho Baptist demand that his statue in the attitude of immersing a candidate shall be placed in a nicho at the capitol and at tho nation's or state's expense. thus to bespeak for all generations the Baptist faith, "C" would strenuously ob ject, and mstly. Marnuettb! Who 13 he? What did he do, that he should be enshrined in the American heart? What great idea did he give to the world? What great achievement did he perform? Wherein did hia greatness lie, "C"? Did he make any discoveries? Who and what was ho? Simply a Jesuit priest, who sought to give tho Indians the Calholic religion, which he had a right to do. But who believes that be is "one of the noblest men in American history." Shade of Patrick Henry, spir its of tho departed Washington, Web ster, Clay, Liucolu, behold thy peer, thy equal, in the immortal Jesuit Marquette! Who knows this greatness, save "C"? Study history, "C", and acquaint thy self with facts. Don't take fancies for facts. Moke Akon. To Trade. Two lots in Marshtield for hogs.
