Germany is going for the so
cinlits, and many of them have
been sent to prison for long
terms lately. The press is muz
zled, and has noting to say in
regard to the eases.
The president has approved
the act of congress providing
that pensions heretofore or here
after granted to widows of sold
iers of the rebellion shall com
mence at the date of the death
of their husbands.
A plan for building a bridge
be ween Dover, England, and
Calais, France, to cost SI 50,
000,000 and to be Inched in
six years, with a railway and
roadway over it, is attracting
attention and comment.
The presidential campaign
lias been started, and ere long
will be well under way. The
Xfws will take no part in the
fun, but as usual will occupy a
strictly independent position so
far as any political party is con
cerned. The ' Anthropological Con
gress in Xew York admits that

The Chicago Kepublican Na
tional Convention has had plen
ty of trouble in nominating a
HiMU. Nothing is known later
than the :2od. except what news
tliestarc driver brought in from
Baker Tuesday evening, which
was to the eifect that Harrison
of Indiana, had secured the
nomination for President, or
was so far ahead that he was al
most sure of receiving it.
There is some talk at govern
ment headquarters of having all j
the land oihee business that is
now done at the oflices of the
clerks done at the land ollices
themselves. Should such an
order be made the proving up i
on lund in this country would j
have to le made at The Dalles
and La Grande land offices in i
stead of at the clerk's office in j
this city. Hut as to that uoth j
ing definite is known as yet, .
and for the financial welfare and
convenience of the settlers in !
Grant county we hope it may
not become a law - at least un
til we get our own land office
in this new district.
In 1S0S, when Seymour and
Orant were running for Presi
dent, there was a gathering of
the Second Adventists, in July,
at Milwaukee. These people it
will be remembered, believed
the world was coming to an end
in September. One morning
One of the clergymen found a
democrat from Kentucky and a
republican discussing the com
ing election, lie said: "Gen
flemen, there is no use discus
sing this question, for before
that time the Lord wi 1 reign
triumphant throughout the
world." The democrat replied:
u will bet you twenty-five dol
lnrs he can't carry Kentucky."

committee on military affairs to
Senator Stewart, who has prom
ised, as foon as he returns from
the Chicago convention, that he
will secure an early report. A
