An effort w ill le made in congress to lease all the government land ia 10 states and tei ritories to the eattlomeu for grazing purpose?. In fact several bills were introduced in the last congress t.i that effect, but for some cause or other they failed in passage. It is Hie aim of the cattle barons, to (.top further settlement on the public domain and to turn the laud over to syndicates for a period of ten years on a lease at 2 conts per acre, and with the privilege of renewing the lease for ten vears more. Perhaps a brief history of this intended legislation may not be out of place in this article as the writer knows the true inwardness ot tue or ganization now advancing such legisla tion before congress. Pour vears aco it w as found by the cattle barons of New Mexico, Colorado, Oklahoma, Western Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming and Montana, that the rush of settlement was gradually but surely preventing the running of large herds of cattle, and that the difference between the cattle and sheepmen was widening to such an extent that almost daily R series of bloodshed resulted, and also that the hiring of "quick trigger men" to protect the ranges against settlement, Or rather to keep settlers from locating On good, available land, had become so notorious that it ceased to be either Sife or profitable enterpaise. One or ganization bad a band cf desperadoes employed and only during the past year was that band broken op, and one mem' ber of it, alone, it is claimed, murdered in total seventeen settlers in various parts of the country. He was recently tried, if we remember aright, fpr mur der, committed in Southwestern Nebras ka and hung for the crime. About four years ago a Denver politi cal aspirant issued a call in the name of the city for the organization of the Na- t tonal Livestock Association, which nothing more nor less than a conglom eration of railroads, stock yard enter- nrises. commission men and cattle barons- The cattle barons being the men whom it is supposed that the Na tional organization will benefit, as efforts were to be madeJo deter settlement in the West and also to create such a sen timent over the United States by the organization of vstate associations and the election of representatives from every state as members of the National Executive Committee, that the measure could be passed. For two years the cattlemen of Texas, who were not di rectly interested in the government land lease, steal or boodle proposition, helped their brethern-by contributing large sums of money to the National Livestock Association but they have practically - withdrawn their support, and with it went the support of one-half of the demo cratic congressmen in the South, thus rendering the passage of a National lease law impossible. The republican party has always been a party that stood squarely on the proposition that the public lands belonged to the people for homestead purposes, and while the democrats cf the South favored the lease law, yet they were afraid to be put on record as the enemies of settlement and standing in with the cattle barons of the vast srrazine territory east of the Rocky mountains. - In the past year all the fences erected by the cattle barons covering over 50, 000,000 acres of land have been ordered to be taken down and now the lives of men who desire homestead lands will be comparatively safe. The effort of the leaders of the National Livestock Association was to organize a powerful land syndic ite or monopoly and thus control not only the government land but National legislation at the same time. The passage of a lease law under any guise would be the entering wedge to prevent settlement and would prove to be a very bad jioliey for the repuhli- cans to allow under any circumstance, and w e are glad to note that Secretary Hitchcock is opposed to any proposition looking to the control of public land by the cattle barons excef .t as users of the grass by sufferance. " The P.ostburg Review is bowling its esteemed contemporary, the Boise Capi tal News. It probably needs it since its political principles were so emphatically repudiated at the polls in that state in the late election. It is rumored as a re sult of his rvmt great political re buke in Idaho Tilr. Fisher w:ll return to Roseburz to experience a few more stunning political and personal rebuffs in this county. The Republicans Douglas counts- should - congratulate themselves upon Mr. Fisher's contem plated return. His opiositioii and lead ership of the opposing forces have work ed wonders for the G. O. P. in this county in the past. How much nearer to each other the nations of the world seem today than was Ihe case a few decades ayo. When weeks and months w n-.rp;uired for communication between the .United States and Europe the countries of the old world appeared a long way. off.

That dreary day in New England which witnessed the genesis of Thanks giving afforded no possible augury of that anniversary in latest times. A mere handful of people, but a little more than 100, the children and women included with the men, were gathered upon a rooky shore, w ith a ' wide and storm-driven sea separating them from their former home, and with a savage, and, as yet, unknown people upon their north, south and west. The early snowfall gave rissnrance of a long aiid severe winter, and the winds soughed dismally through the tree branches. Yet those Puritans were a pious as well as brave people, who were grateful to God for their safr landing after a long and boisterous vovage, and they were especially pleased; that, though the coun try was bleak and lare, their industry should convert the forests into fertile fields, which eaoh returning year would yield rich harvests of golden grain. "Before all, however, they were grate ful that in this new world they could worship God as they pleased, w ithout fear of social proscription, stripes, stocks and the gaol. Thanksgiving day was bom distinctively of a consiliums love for civil as well as religious liberty. They err who claim that as a nation we tlo not recognize God and ltis con trolling jwwer over men, collectively at" a people, as well as individually. I"nn our coins are engraved the words : "In God we trust," while every proclama tion of Thanksgiving recites the bless- ings we receive at liis hands its well as our duty of confessing our obligations to Him. Nothing could be more appro priately expressed than these proclama tions, each in its turn. Our fathers thus set the fashion of commemorating the duty and obligation resting uikmi men. But thev could not possibly grasp the thought how in bless ing He could bless them, and in multi plying He could multiply them they and the little colony down in . Virginia, until within three centuries there should spring into the foremost nation upon tlie lace of the earth. If the new ly arrived Pilgrims could find occasion for fortitude, assuredly their defen dants, witn aJi other Americans, may do so with fervent hearts, moved of joy, becausevf the infinitely superior bless ings which rest upon them. They can thank God that this is a nation of peace not given over to war; that wa are nnitrd people, filled with a .purjKe to make the nation yet more glorious ; and that the earth yields everywhere of its richness, lor tue sustenance of the io- ple. They can thank Him because the wheels of the factories are whirling and that the marts of trade are crowded ; for the jealousy with which our school are guarded and for healthful mural influ ences that are everywhere extending. They can bless Him for homes that are happy and that their indwellers have none to molest or make them afraid. For advance in-art, in music and all tin? material things in the world heantiful, one should find cause for thanksgiving. There is no blighting pestilence in the land ;" and, as President RoosV-velt says, "the year that has just closed has boen one of peace and overflow ing plenty. Rarely has any people enjoyed greater prosperity than we are now enjoying." Herein do the wronged of nations find a secure habitation, snd our country is honored by all the nations.' And, as Governor Geer says : "The people of Oregon have many reasons to be thank ful. The recurring seasons have' brought their abundant harvests ; no epidemics Iiave visited them ; labor has lieen em ployed in all lines of business at an ad vanced rate of remuneration the state schools have been liberally pat ronized and supported, while intelli gence and prosperity go hand in hand rajridly pushing our commonwealth to the forefront among the older states of the Union." In Douglas county, great changes for the better liave taken place during the past year, and we have al ready entered upon an era of prosperity, business progress and development that will rapidly bring to th j front the im mense hidden wealth that lies within our borders. Each person can find cause for gratitude for personal bless ings, and all may nnite in giving thanks in this great national holiday. A Mrs. Ellen Gore, the erstwhile wife of a prominent American was in Paris studying art and was, it appears, mur dered by a Frenchman by the Polish name of De Rydgewski, who claims that she was shot by the accidental discharge of Lis revolver in falling upon the floor The American minister is not satisfied at the outcome of the French legal enquiry into the case which cleared the man and has ordered a special commission of four American physicians to rejort on the case. Their report shows that the woman could not have killed herself nor have been killed as stated by her lover It bids fair to.be a - National complica tion. The Tlianksgiving Day proclamations recently issued by the eovern9 of democratic states do not agree with the doleful democratic sjeeelies made dur ing the recent campaign. Either the speeches or the proclamations contain a good many "fibs" as to the material condition oi me people ami then cause for thankfulness. Salmon Eggs for the Umpqua. Oret.o.n Cm, Nov. 23. Deputy Mas ter Fish Warden Herman A, Webster will leave tomorrow night for Rosebnrg with 1,000,000 salmon eggs from the Government hatchery on the Clackamas River. Thine eggs are for the middle or Fall run of Columbia River chinook, and will be placed in the state hatchery on the L'mpfpia river for propagation. They will le shipjicd dry. Deputy Webster said this afternoon that the state had been" unfortunate in its projiagation work on Coast streams, but at Ontario about JO.000,000 eggs had been taken. Last week the real spawn ing season of salmon on Coast rivers was at its height, but the ra nf.ill was too great, exceeding bv far the rainfall in this locality and at interior oints, the rivers rising from six to eight feet in a short time, and sweeping out the racks. At Umptua river about 500,000 eggs were taken. Mr. Webster dues not exjwet much loss iu shipping the f-ggs dry, and says they will live a week out of water if the conditions are favorable, ANOTHER BIG SUBSCRIPTION LIST The TwiceaWcek Plaindealer is Fairly Forging Ahead by Leaps and Bounds.

The Immigration Bureau at Portland is doing a splendid work for the state at large and its efforts thould le carried forward and appreciated by liberal do nations to its funds, Salem is iu the throes of a hot political fi!ht for mnnicii-al officers and purposes.

Objeelions to Bishop Spalding leiug appointed archbishop of Chicago, have been filed at Rome and the appoint ment has b.-n held up.. It is claimed that he is t'o liberal in his theologiral teaching?. Even Mexii-o, the haven of beatitude where the demo-op lanaties looked to with straining and tear dimined eyes has gone back on silver, and is clamor ing for a gold standard. In the ("hy of Mexico silver is rated at $1.71 to $1.00 in gold. Rejorts from Eastern Oregon state that sheepmen are overrunning the range with their flocks and that cattle men are moving ilieir stock to other places. It is a well known fart that cat tle will not thrive on land over which sheep has run. General Miles, who is now at Manila on a 'acock inspection tour, lecame frightened when the U. S. Transjort Ingalls struck upon a rock in the harbor of Legaspi, so he ordered hi bath tub to lie launched and prepared to paddle to shore, when the steamer in derision eased off the rock into safety without serious damage to the keel. At Lexington, Ky., a fierce religions fight is in progress, as 202 members of the Christian church want to sing their "Titles clear to mansions iu the skies-' without the help of an organ, and 3M want the organ to start their "Joyful notes of praise." As a result the pastor and a jiortion of the elders have re; igned and will organize a new church. The press at Portland, Sokane, Seat tle and other points has been worked to a finish by the "P-elle of New York" the atrical company, a dunniy jiersonaled the well known cartoonist Fred Opper, of Alphonse and Gaston fame, and was rejorted to 1 desperately in love with ''Fiii" the lielle of the show. Every night the theaters were crowded to see the supposed lovesick fool from New York, who had a private liox reserved in advance. The Philippinos now want congress to establish for them a. gold standard. They have had enough of the democrat ii opulis(ic theory and practice with silver which now at Manila only losses at $2.0 for $1 .00 in gold. This is an ob ject lesson sent to America by the Philopinos to their demo-iop friends and brethren in the late unpleas antness in that country that they have been reconstructed and are on the highway t'Kprosjierity, thanks to the re publican party.. The Oregon State Barliers' Association want their present law amended and leiuilties attached to infractions of the law. They want apprentices to work three years in a barlier shop ticforc cer tificates siii lie granted for them to shave for themselves. The stiite will do well to do away with all clasH legislation and such a system of siteciojs rot. If this thing goes on we will hear of hod carriers wanting a man to serve five years apprenticeship at making mortar and handling brick before he can draw full pay or start, out with a hol of his own. i lie law as it now stanus, accord ing to barliers in this city, is a farce of the worst kind, for it is not observed by tho men it is eupjiosed to protect.

Two of my srx-cinteos stood 4! inches at the shoulder. His limt are not cpuite so heavy, and his horns will not average as large at the base, although quite as long. The horns of my largest secimen of ls'JT measured j.iij inches in length and U" inches in circumfer ence at the base. The flesh is the most delicious of alt w ild game. In the sum mer this sheep lives chiefly on the rich, succulent growth of the Aspteniumsep lentrionale. which grow sin thecrericea of the rock on thesuuny slopes of this rugged range. This beautiful animal must endure great hardship to survive the winters of this icy north. Outing.
