Sinoe the famous Meline tariff of 1892
became the law in France the commer­
cial relations between that country and
Switzerland have been the cause of
much vexation on both sides. The Swiss
are determined to retaliate by every
means in their power. The latest enact­
ment of the federal government is di­
rected against the French newspapers,
some of which have a considerable cir­
culation in French Switzerland. Hither­
to these papers have been dispatched in
bundles by the trains. The moment the
new law is put in operation they will
no longer be permitted to enter the
country in this way. Each copy must
pay a small fee of 1 centime. It is true
that a centime is only about a fifth of a
half penny, but the new tax will prac­
tically raise the price of French half
penny papers to a penny and of penny
papers to 8 halfpence. A very large
number of French papers nowadays be­
long to the first category, and of these
it will be seen the price is to be exactly
doubled.—London News.

Judge Lord Talks Silver.
A Mystery of the Plains.
San Francisco, Oct. 16.—Judge W ill­
iam P. Lord, governor-elect of Oregon. iB
guest at the Palace hotel with his wife.
Judge Lord and his wife expect to remain
in the city a few days, and will then leave
for the East on a pleasure trip, going by
way of Denver ami St. Louis to Delaware,
where Judge Lord will spend some time
with his parents.
“There is a growing sentiment iu favor
of the free coinage of silver,” said Judge
Lord, iu speaking of the political situa­
tion in Oregon at the Palace last evening.
‘That is only among the masses, however,
and not among the commercial classes.
The way iu which that subject was
handled iu our platform had considerable
to do with the success of our ticket. 1
fiud that the people of Oregon attribute
the industrial difficulties, the decline iu
the prices of products and the deprecia­
tion of property values to the demonetiza­
tion of silver, and they believe there will
be no return of prosperity until silvt” is
remonetized aud placed on an equality
with gold. How that is to be brought
about is the subject of dispute between
the political parlies. They are all,
practically, bi-metalists, but the question
of whether silver should be restored
through national legislation or by an
international agreement is the question
on which the argument hinges. The
populists are after the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. The commercial classes
are bimetalists, but only in the sense that
they believe silver should be restored
through an international agreement.
That will never come, in my opinion.
EuglanI would never agree to it. The
republicans declared themselves in favor
of the restoration of silver through nation­
al legislation. That plank iu our platform
was one of the causes of the big repub­
lican victory iu Oregon.’’
Some two weeks ago the body of a
man was found ten miles west of J. Bil­
le t’s ranch, thirty miles west of Silver
lake, Lake county. The spot is near the
dividing line between lake and Klamath
counties. A corouer’s jury was empan­
eled by tbe J. P. of Silver Lake precinct
aud found the man to have beeu 22 to 25
years of age, blonde ootnplexiou.
His
skull had beeu fractured in two places by
blows from a.blunt instrument. Murder
aud robbery are suspected. The mur­
dered man is supposed to be one of
two prospectors seen in that region, but
the Klamath Falls Express says it may

ernment who recently concluded his work

Those who study omens say another
long, cold winter, filled with blustering
storms, is ahead. The goose bone is
nearly all white, and snow, they say,
will lie on the ground from early in De­
cember until April or later. Corn busks
are more than usually thick. The maize
has put on an extra overcoat to protect
itself from the zero temperature to come.
Woodchucks and chipmunks are already
fat enough to kill, and their fur is dense
aud fine and soft. They, too, predict
cold weather and will seek winter quar­
ters early. Finally, the price of coal is
advancing, and that should settle all
doubts in the mind of the average man
as to whether we’re going to have any
winter this year.—Lewiston Journal.

HORSE HINTS.
Do not keep the hay over the stable, as
the gases from the manure and the breath
of the animal will make it unwholesome.
Keep your harness soft and clean, par­
ticularly the inside of the collar and sad­
dle, as the perspiration, if allowed to dry
In, will cause irritation and produce galls.
Kindness will do more than brutality.
Therefore do not use harsh language to
your horse or laeh, beat or kick him. Bear
In mind that he is very intelligent and
sensitive, a willing servant and deserving
of your kindest treatment and thought.
Never allow your horse to stand on hot,
fermenting manure, as this will soften the
hoofs and bring on diseases of the feet, nor
permit the old litter to lie under the
manger, as the gases will taint his food
and irritate his lung« aa well as his eyes.
The collar should fit closely, with suffi­
cient space at the bottom to admit your
hand. A oollar too small obstructs the
breathing, while one too large will cramp
and draw the shoulders Into an unnatural
position, thus obstructing the circulation.
Remember that horses are made vicious
by cruel treatment; that a careless appli­
cation of the whip has blinded many

year-old son of D. C. Brownell of Illinois
valley, while iu company with ;two sons
of Dr. Whipp, was accidentally .shot with
a shot guu about two miles east of.Kerby
in the mountains. Thej boys were hur­
rying through the brush ou the trail of a
deer. Young Browuell, while climbing

gnu, one of the hammers striking the
log. breaking it and diBekargiug.tbeJgun,
the contents of which passed through
the wrist of the right baud, coming*, out
through the fleshy part of the thumb ou
the inside of tbe ;hand, shattering* the
bones.of tlie wrist and the thirdjtiuger of
the left hand. Two Jehot struck the
breast aud thirteen j weut into the, face,
one entering. tlie socket;[of the .left., eye.

Chest nuts 011 Oak Grubs.
A young man who not long since found
the pleasures of city! life palljon him and
weut out into Washington couDty to be
a jolly farmer, claims; to haveidiscovered
a method of utilizing oak grubs which it
it works, willjirove tkejgreutest discovery
of the age, as far as farming iu Oregon
is concerned. Every one who has any­
thing to do with farming in the Wil­
lamette valley knows what a uuisuuce
oak grubs are. They are young oak trees,
which iu many places cover large tracts,
aud are called grubs because ,thej only
way of getting rid of them is by grabbing
them up. They have caused more back­
aches and heartaches aud the use of more
profanity than any other kind of grub iu
the state, though tbe grub fnruiBhed 111
some places is enough to make a saint
swear. Well, this geuiU6 of a farmer has
grafted all his oak grubs with chestnut
scions, aud says they are doing finely,
and that iu a few years he will be fatten­
ing vast droves of nogs ou chestnuts; utid
he can afford to laugh at farmers who
raise wheat to fatten hogs. I t may be
well to state that this farmer, wheu a
resident of this city, was connected with
the law, so his statements may be taken
with a hunk of salt. Should his bright
anticipations be realized, many farmers
who have toiled and moiled and prespired
at digging up their grubs, to make wheat
fields, will feel like takiug a nice supple
grub aud beating themselves to a jelly.
I t may turn out that the chestnut trees
will not bear nuts. The oaks whicli used
to cover the ground with acorns now
bear but few, if any.—[Oregonian.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constntioual disease, requires a
constational treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of testimonials.
