A salmon, four feet long, weigh
ing 55 pounds, was caught in The
Dalles Friday.
Queen Victoria has ruled and
reigned over the British empire for
sixty years, longer than the average
man's lifetime. Her diamond
jubilee is being celebrated all over
the entire world this week.
Ex-Governor Pennoyer has avow
ed that he will retire from politics
as soon as his term as mayor of
Portland expires. This probably
means that he will be a candidate
for United States senator.
One more Oregon appointment
has been secured. This time it is
the collector of customs for Alaska,
and J. W. Ivy, a lawer of Portland,
is the man who gets the plum.
Mr. Ivy was one of Mitchell's strong
lieutenants, at the senatorial fight
last winter. It would seem that
Mitchell has not entirely lost his
"pull" yet.
The enormous increase in public
expenditures is an important factor
in creating deficiencies. The federal
government spent about $358,000,
000 in 1890. Its total receipts last
year were over $400,000,000. Had
there been no increase in public
extravagance there would have
been a surplus last year of over
$50,000,000, instead of a large
deficiency. As we have so often
and earnestly contended, it is even
more necessary for government to
reduce expenses than to increase its
revenues. Oregnian.
Junction City, Lane county, was
visited by a disastrous fire on the
1 6th, that destroyed a whole block
and did much damage. Among
the other buildings destroyed was
the one occupied by the Times
printing office. Bro. Moorehead
was foitunate enough to save all of
his material, and yet his loss will
amount to about $200. Bro. Moore
head exhibited the usual grit and
nerve of vhe newspaper man, by
setting up his office, straightening
out the conglomerated mass of
type, and getting out his usual
interesting paper, being delayed
only one day.
When politics and educational
matters get mixed up it always
makes a terrible mess. This is
illustrated by the miserable condi
that now exists at Eugene in the
state university. The trouble does
not lie there in the inefficiency of
the president of the institution, but
because a lot of politicians have got
their intrigueing hands onto the
school and are seeking to further
their own personal ends. It is to
Jegretted, but it cannot be helped.
A lot of cheap politicians have to
be cared for and they have fastened
themselves onto the Eugene institu
tion. Anton Pfanner, the banker of
Forest Grove, made the statement
during the campaign last fall that
every free silverite was a scoundrel
or a rogue. Pfanner turned up
missing the other day, and missing
with him were several thousand
dollars in deposits, some of which
belonged to the "rogues" that
voted for free silver last fall. An
investigation of his affairs show
that his liabilities exceed his assets.
And now there are some people
right in Washington county, where
Mr. Pfanner used to live, that be
lieves that a "scoundrel" of a free
silver man is better than an
"honest" gold bug with a penchant
to run away with other people's
money.
Number 15.
Communicated.
"Toledo, Oregon, April 5, 1897.
To Honorable County Court of
Lincoln County, State of Oregon:
Having called upon each member
of the county court, personally, and
having written to each of the
county commissioners, and they
having refused to allow me any
deputy at all or at any time or
during court week of the county or
Circuit court, you will please take
notice that, as the law requires that
the clerk shall keep his office open
from 8 o'clock a. m. until 12 o'clock
noon, and from 1 o'clock p. m.
until 5 o'clock p. m. upon all
judicial days, therefore, it is im
possible for me to attend tne terms
of the county court or circuit court
unless said court is held in the
office of the county clerk, and if
held there I shall perform all the
duties thereof to the best of my
ability. .
Respectfully submitted
B. F. Jonks,
County Clerk."
The above notice was 'duly
docketed in the county commis
sioners docket at the regular April
term of county court, and the
notice handed to the court on
Wednesday morning, the first day
of court. No action whatever was
ever taken in the matter or entry
made in the commissioners' journal.
In as much as there has been
considerable street talk concerning
this matter, and the Leader hav
ing narrowed the thing down to a
question of who has lied, we have
decided to publish the record with
out comment.

A Day'5 Proceedings in Congress.
Speaker Reed takes the chair
and says:
"I will please come to order.
"I don't believe in the efficacy
of prayer, so I will dispense with it
today.
"The seconds of the preceding
meeting are considered , read and
approved.
"There is no unfinished business
on hand, and even if there were, I
do not consider myself a quorum at
this stage of the game.
"Did I hear a motion to adjourn?
Well, I should remark, for my
hearing is very acute, and when it
comes to adjourning I am a quorum
from Quorumville.
"If I am in favor of adjourning,
I will please signify it by saying
'aye.' If I am opposed, I don't
know myself.
"I have it. I stand adjourned."
Birmingtoti Herald.
Ex-Senator Corbett, of Oregon,
enjoys all tl'e privileges of the
senate chamber except making
speeches, voting and drawing a
salary. He has been assured of a
favorable report from the committee
on privileges and elections, but has
been told that he will have to wait
until after the tariff bill is out of Ihz
way before the case can be brought
up In the senate. As it is pretty
generally understood that congress
will adjourn as soon as the tariff
bill is out of the way, action by the
senate on the question of seating
Mr. Corbett upon his governor's
certificate of appointment will un
doubtedly go over until the begin
ning of the regular session in De
cember. Washington Post.
California was visited by a severe
earthquake last Sunday, while Ore
gon was visited only by timely and
bountiful showers. After all there
is no place like Oregon.
