UNITED STATES SENATOR.
Until the people of the United States
learn to exercise Rcod businrrs ente in
politic! ai well as in ordinary every day
traattctioni they will r.ot succeed. A
etas in bonnets does sot stop to en
quire what a nian' personal opinions
art on etbica when be wants good ser
vice in hit business. 11 is only question
is: la be a good and faithful worker?
If the applicant for work ran furnish
tatUfactory evidence that be is & good
and faithful workman, the employer
doea not caie a bean, if a farmer,
whether the applicant takes snuff,
drinks soda water or a little wine for his
ttomach'a rake, or eschews thein en
tirely. Neither does a banker care
whether bis accountant ntes a gooee
qnill, steel pen, or a cold pen in keeping
hit accounts. What he is concerned in
is good service.
So the people in chooirjz a man to
represent them in the United Statu
eenale anonld enquire into tne man s
abilitr, honesty and faithfulness to
isrre them there, and, with all. hi
skill and experience in that line oi
work.
All these John H. Mitchell ha; proven
himself able and competent to perform
by his long service in th senate o! tbe
United Sta'es. His r:ews on the cor
rency qcestiorj, however radical, have
been settled by tbe voice of the people
for at least 4 years ; in those views Mr.
Mitchell acquiesces. He stands upon
tbe EL Louis platform fair and square
indorses every plank yields bis indi
vidua! opinion to the bebes: of the popa
lar will on tbe financial qnsslion. Ut
if, and always bas been, with the people
on the tariff, internal improvements, in
eluding tbe speedy construction of tbe
Nicaragua canal. He wields a marked
influence in tbe national senate and is
fitted by reason of his ability and ex
perience to do Oregon mare good than
any new man the state can send to the
senate. Give us John II. Mitcbei). He
ia the people's choice. Remember this,
politicians and stand from ncder the
coming thunder clond.
C. H. FISHER AGAIN.
Last Thursday, witbont that ccmpunc
tion of conscience that u;uallv actuates a
man of honor, the Review editor reiter
ated a batch of falsehoods relating to tbe
editor of the Puusdealir's private busi
ness evidently designed to injure the
Puusdzalxx'e standing before tbe pub
lic Each a course no man Jcf respec
tability will stoop to unless driven to; it
in self defense, and that is the excuse
for lifting tbe veil of some of G. H.
Fisher's private affairs, that he may see
himself ai others him. There is a
mortgage on Mr. Fisher's home for
11000. That accounts, according to his
explanation, for his paying on assess
ments for debts as much, within fl4,
as W. F. Benjamin. Tben as to a debt
on the PukLSDtALzn not yet due, it is
not half what the Review owed, uot
long since, to Mrs. A. TV. Compton, who
rather than tell tbe Review on fore
closure, compromised the debt long past
due by taking depreciate! town prop
erty at a pecuniary loss to her, because
she says, she was fearful a tale of tbe
Review would not begin to repiy ler,
and ratber than have trouble she settled
for property when the needed casb.
Now, she says, the Fishers an trying
to cheat he out of a portion of t' at
property taken in liquidation of her
mortgage on the Review. But Fijher,
poor thing, can't help it. He is non
compafl since a citizen t'rolte a csne over
his bead, knocking out what little fence
ha bad for pntili-htrtg lies about him and
meddling with bis private affair?. If
Mr. Fisber continae-i to medd o with
people's private business he may meet
another Brockway one of these fine days.
The State tax levy this year as died
by tbe board of equalization, is four
mills, just about double what it ought to
be. At two mills tbe revenne for state
purposes woald amount to $230,553,94.
If the legislature will cut down all need
less expenses, such an those several com
missions and tbe appropriations for the
state agricultural fair, tbe btate uni
versity, tbe normal ecboile, the chari
table institutions, the fees for secretary
of state, tbe legislature clrk nuisance
and tbe salaries of many of the officials,
tbe above sum would be sufficient.
If tbe editor of tho Review thinks hie
window panes aro broken by etoucs from
the pLAJNDEAtLK, be can console him
self by reflecting upuu tho old adage
that, Tbey who lite iu glass liouees
should uot begiu to throw stones.
SALEn LETTER.
Salem, Or., Jan. 10, 1S97.
Editor Plain-dealer: The members
of the legislature which convenes tomor
row are about all here, and tbe corridors
and lobby of the Hotel Willamette (the
Chcmekete of other days) aro crowded to
their utmost capacity with lobbyists and
place sodkots. For every position within
the gift of the legislature there aro many
applicants, to say nothing of the lady
clerks. The absorbing topics now, how-
ever, aro tli9 seniitorship and the speak
ership. 1 in admitted that the presi
dency of '.1 o senate uill go to Joseph
Simon, senator from Multnomah. In
fact, it is authoritatively Mated that the
other aspirants have withdrawn from
the contest ami for thi will undoubt
edly gtt good committee place. Tho
contest for speaker will probably narrow
down to Riddle, Bourne and Benson,
with the i-hanres at prcront apparently
in favor of Riddle, nutwitbstandii g the
opposition to him, r rather the friend
of other candidates, ray tliore is defee
tion in lus own delegation. liourne is
actively proeet-uting his canvass, and
strati as it mar seem a few rrp'ililicans
are disposed to favor him. The claim is
put forth that he is a republican and the
republicans will nerd him in tho future.
If a man must bo kept in a position of
trust and responsibility in order to keep
him in the party, the sooner he goes out
the tetter for the parir. Mr. Bonnie's
management of tbe campaign last spring
came very near being a dismal failuto,
especially In the firht tor gressional dis
trict, and in tbe fall be was an active
Bryanite. How much r a republican,
let me ark, wcnld he 1 if Mr. Bryan
bad bapiened to have been elected?
No, the piincii-les which Mr. Pourne
holds most dear are antagonistic to the
declared policy of tho republican party
of the Ftate and nation and he ought not
to be made ipaker of a rernblican
house.
Senator Mitcbei), it is said, will for
swear bit allegiance to the canfe of free
siher and stand squarely upon the St.
Louis platform, and tor the preeervation
of tbe gold standard, except by interna
tional agreement. This comes so late
that it cannot escape the imputation
that defection of tbe populists baa
caued it. I think Senator Mitchell will
be re-elected, tut ii would have been
much easier for him had he made a pub
lic declaration in accord with tbe fore
going two months ago. It ought not to
be too much for a man who expected to
do elected as a republican, by republic
ans, to a position of high honor, to say
that he was a republican, and the sen
ator will have to come to it or fall be
tween two stools.
There will be a contest or two. The
seat of Nosier, joint representative from
Coos and Curry, will perhaps be con
teited and ex-Senator Hatch of Pilk
wi.l contest the eeat of Dr. Lee, of that
county. There ia a little 4 inwardness
about this which may be brongbt out
during the investigation that will reflect
no credit on some so-called republicans
who heldthe reins in Jnne. It is well
These matters are of public concern and
the people shoulJ know who are friends
and who are foes. The open to we can
meet and combat ; but the ji;asin who
subs in the dark is as a thief in tbe
night .
Long haie tbe people cried for re
trenchments in public affairs and it ap
pears that this body will endeavor to
make a record in that direction; that is,
of course, provided there is no senatorial
deadlock to hold up needed legislation.
Tbe state board bas made the tax levy
for the ensuing year ou the estimated
expense. The items before the mem
bers. Can tbey be cut down? If so in
what patticular, and the burden of taxa
tion reduced to a minimum? First of
all in the older of comment is tbe rail
road commission costing 110,000 per
year. There is a strong sentiment in
tavcr of unconditional repeal. But such
an act would remove all protection from
tbe people against the railroads and they
would be free to do as they pleased.
There is alio a strong sentiment which
will be supported by the governor in
nis message in tavor oi one commis
sioner, and he to be elected by the peo
ple. This could be done and tbe total
cost of tbe office need not exceed $3000
per annum. This would be lbs better
plan. Protection would be afforded at a
minimum oi cost, there are too many
circuit judges. One iu the first district
would be plenty. The district is not
nearly as large as the second with only
one judge. The.fourth could get along
with two or three at tbe most. There
are now four. The sixth, seventh,
eighth and ninth districts, should be re
duced one at least.
Tho normal schools and colleges will
have to make a fight for their accus
tomed appropriations, and public insti
tutions outside of Salem will have the
recent decision of the supreme court that
all public buildings must be at the cap!
tal to contend with. Retrenchment is
tbe ordeiand care will have to be taken
that the other extreme is not reached
and the public tervice crippled.
Some people will ask fool questions.
One Is: ''Why should the secretary of
state pocket all the fees that come into
bis office, and the state pay the salaries
of the clerks that do tho work?" Here
ia an item of over $5000 a year that
might be looked after. And again why
ehould the secretary pocket tbe fees at
all. The constitution proscribes his
salary and says '"he shall receive no feed
or emoluments whatever." Further
mote ho was elected upon a platform
pledging its candidates to live up to tbo
constitution in this particular.
Many familiar faces are about tbe cor
ridors, and some whom we have been
accustomed to see are missing. This
shall be the eubject of another letter.

Not that we love efenalor Mitchell less
but that wo love Oregon more, is why
we favor his return to the United States

HOLD UP AT MYRTLE CREEK.
January 7tb, a man kuown as Frank
Hoit held up at Myrtle Creek station tbo
agent, . L. Hoopengarner, and robbed
him. as alleged in his complaint, of a $20
gold piece, a two dollar greenback
and $23 iu silver, in all $45. When tbo
robber at first demanded tlm agent's
money, the agent, knowing the man, re
plied, ''You are j .iking," whereupon
Holt knocked the agent down with his
revolver, indicting a severe wound on
the head and then proceoded to relteyo
him of his money, as etated above, aud
left him unconscious. Upon regaining
consciousuess the agent to!craphtd the
sheriff hero, giving thu uatno and a de
scription ot tno man. Holt, who was
well known to the officials here, made
his appearance In the city early Friday
morning in Pokel'd saloon wheio he waa
found and arrested. Aleo another man
who was with him nns arretted aa John
Doe, but gives hi namo as Robert Alton,
wiitcn is probably an alias, o.ey were
lodged in jail to await a pieliminary trial
Monday. This Hoit Is well known to
tbe citizens here and if the agent at
Myrtle Creek will identify bitn in court
he will doubtless get booked for tbe
pen and be given a permanent job for a
term of years.
The above is as gathered from com
mon roport, Tho following taken from
tne lettimony ot witnesses at the pre
liminary trial today before Jusilco Ham
Iln, is substantially as follows:

Tales of Horror.
New York, Jan. 8. A Key West dis
patch to tho World a ay a :
Evidence of awfui butchoriosatGuana-
bacoa accumulate daily. Advices from
Havana report that a great pit Glled
with corpses aud humau fragments waa
discovered Monday in a canofield, not
more than a mile from that place. A
caroful investieatlon revealed at least 20
whole bodies aud many more legs and
arms, other parts of tbo dismembered
bo ties being missing.
Of the bodies romaining entire, four
wero those of women, three of voting
aadssea. one of a airl not more than 10
yoara old, four of boya, and the reBt of
men.
Permission to bury the remains was
brutally refused, with a threat that if
this slaughter was complained of, many
more would be" added to what the Span
ish officials called the "Cuban diet" pile,
The edict refusing permitsion to re
move furniture and other things unless
asked for 24 bouts previously is taken
advantage of by the Spanish aoldiera to
wreck bujldinRi and revile and insult, if
not kill, persons suspected of Cuban
leanings. 4
Some families in the pooror sections of
the city, who did not know of the edict,
started to move Sunday night. After
they had loaded their furniture on
wagons, the poltce And soldiers tired on
them, killing eight persons, including
soveral innocent posiers-by. In tbe offi
cial report it .waa stated that the troops
had been attacked and several rebels had
been killed.
A girls' school near tho center of the
toscn was entered by troops one day last
week, and the principal, an elderly Cu-bin-bort.
woman, very prominent, waa
compelled to kneel to tbe officer in com
mand and beg pardon for using (ransla
Hons of text-books printed in the United
States. Tbe girl pupils were insulted
and rndely treated until tbe school waa
broken up in disorder. A complaint to
the commandant only excited laughter
that "such a litle thing" waa complained
of.
Havana h moeh agitated by rumors
of victory by Gomez' troopi, of the sue
cessful crossing of the trocha into Pioar
del Rio, and of several routs of Spanish
troops.
Uenral Wejler is execrated on every
hand, but on account of the severe cen
sorthip and Weyler'a system of spies, no
one dares say a worJ aloud. Every one
thinks Lis neighbor a spy, and little can
be learned from any one. Spies by tbe
hundred attend tbo open-air concerts
and tbe teait dissatisfaction expressed i'b
used as a pretext and the victim is
thrust into Cabanas or Morro castle

friend or kindred. Scarcely a night

Qave Her Riches.
oan tRAJccisco, Jan. b. it is cur
rsntly rumored that Mrs. Emma Spreck
e's-Watson has deeded to Ler father tho
balk of her property, voluntarily makin
nerssii, comparatively Epeaking, a poor
womai. Mrs. Watson consulted hei
husband about tbe step before ehe took
il and he gave bis unqualified consent.
It Is said that before tbe wedding took
place Miss Emma Spreckels informed
her father that she wished to marry
Thomas Watson. Claus Spreckels would
not bear of it, 'and upbraided his daugh
tor when she told tim ehe intended
marry Mr. Watson, whether he liked
or not. Persuasion proving rain, Mr.
Claus spreckels ia credited with having
resorted to taunts, chiding his daughter
for her ingratitude and pointing out
what he bad done for her.
Yesterday Mrs. Watson told her hus
band that sbo ought to deed back to her
father all he had given her, including
United States bonds to tbe amount of
$1,000,000 and the property on Market
street known as tbe Emma Spreckels
building.
With characteristic force, Mr. Watson
is said to have told bis bride to do what
she thought right in tbe matter; that he
had not married her for what sbo had,
but for herself, and that be would have
married her long ago if she had b;en a
poor girl and he bad been able to sup
port her. 'This occurred at noon.
Within an hour the property had
changed bands.

-How to Advertise.
Tho question of method in advertising
is ono having infinite range. Tho mat
ter is ono of tho very first importance,
and cannot bo too carefully studied. Ono
thing about it that may bo set down as
truo i3 flint every man s advertising, m
its language and style, should bo char-
aclcristic characteristic of tho man,
characteristic of his stock, characteris
tic of his commercial position. For
every man lias his peculiarities of devel
opment. When ho speak3 vro know it is
lie, though wo may not bo looking at
him, nnd liia advertisement should rep
resent lum liko hia voice. Ho should
put hia experience, hia industry, his en
terprise, into Ida advertising. It is as
tonishing to see how merchants who aro
tireless in their industry at the atoro
early and late, closo buyers, eager seek
ers after business, quick to embrace op
portunities for enlargement of lines and
extension of trade it is surprising to see
how such business men continue their
advertising in tho language of tho old
rut, and announce in tho aamo words
and tho samo typo that did duty for
them years ago that "B. Franklin (or
any other man, tho name doesn't matter)
ia still to be found at tho old stand, with
a choico stock of dry goods, notions,
etc., etc." (The two etc.'s nro indispen
sable in nn "ad" of this kind.)
There is another and a better way to do:
If a merchant has any snap, any energy,
in himself, let him show it in his adver
tising. If ho has any bargains in nra
store, let him cay so. If he liaa connec
tions which enable him to sell better
goods, or tho samo goods at lower prices,
than anybody else, let him say that; say
it plainly, strongly and in a way that
will carry conviction of truthfulness;
and on tho same principle that leads him
to treat visitors to hi3 storo so that they
will call again, let him write bi3 adver
tisement so that his Jtcxf advertisement
will bo looked for; if you get a person a
nttention onco try to hold it. The whole
thing is summed npin this: Ono should
study advertising as ho does every other
department of his business. Advertis
ing is a science, simple, it is true, as to
its main clemcnte, but requiring moro
thought and system than many of our
business men have been accustomed to
give it.
Value of Changing Advertisements.
Picking up an old journal the other
day I found a statement to tho effect
that n certain patent medicine firm had
not (at that time) changed tho wording
of its advertisements for thirteen years.
Whilo I am a thorough believer in judi
cious advertising I doubt if such adver
tising as that would accomplish any
good after a few months of publication.
No doubt ninety-mno readers out of
hundred would throw asido the paper at
sight of tho familiar heading with tho
exclamation, "The samo old story,
Though publishers may save consider
ably in composition bills by permitting
adveriiie.ments to "stand in their col
umns for a year or more, they must lose
considerable in tho ill effect upon other
wcnld be advertisers.
It is to the interest of publishers that
their patrons should find that "it pays
to advertise, and those advertising col
umns arc most attentively perused
which are most frequently chanced. A
publisher who allows an advertisement
to stand without change in his columns
for over three months is doing his own
business an absolute harm. Advertise
ments aro being looked upon as news,
and as such thev should bo fresh and in-
tcresting. Invito your patrons to make
frequent changes in their announce
ments. It will pay them, and this will
have a reflex action npou vour own re
ceipts. National Publisher and Printer.
