THE GMT HOT HEWS. December iit ISO I. Tho Into mining congress nt Denver decided in favor of freu silver by n vote of -181 to 8. After tlint it looks ns if any party opos cl to tli.it measure will fi id iuelf in the soup next election. A Michigan editor gives this timely warning: "Onu innn dig continued the Sim on Monday and promptly on next day his horse ran away with him, giving him a nar row escape from death. Other people idionltl govern tliuiriHcl von accordingly." The Commercial clnh of Okla homa City, Inn issued a call for a convention, to be held in Oklahoma Decern her lfi, coiiijKwed of dele gate chosen from each political division of Oklahoma and Indian territory, to discuss the mh inabili ty of statehood and the boundary linen of the proosed state.

Address, ! 8 11. Amis, Mitchell, Crook Co., (Oregon. ) OTIOB OK ASSIONMKNT. II err Most, tbo anarchist leader, who has been set to work for fix months in the blacksmith tdiop of the IMackwoll's Island penitentiary is said to have changed so greatly that it is dillicult for his friends to recognize him. His hair has turn ed to a snowy white and his face is thin and ghastly pale. Nothing has such a sad elfect upon a prof fessioual anarchist as work, unless, possibly, it is to be hanged. After congress meets and ihe speaker of the house is eluded, things in Washington uill bogiu to grow extremely interesting. "While theie isn't much probability of any important legislation being enacted, owing to (ho senate's be ing republican and the house dem ocratic, it is iijkjii the floors of the respective chambers that the pre liminary moves of the presidential campaign will he made, by making known the intentions of both par ties, while the alliance men in both bodies may be relied iiK)ii to give both democrats and republi cans an opportunity to vote for or against all of the measures advo cated by that orgatiuotiou. Secretary IJusk does some plain talking in his annual rcKrt about the placing of hides on the free list by the McKiuley tarilf law. lie wiys: "The large quantities of hides which uru being shipped to the Cuitcd States from foreign countries, and are admitted free of duty, have caused a great dcpreci atiou In thu prices realized for hides of domestic production. This has had a marked tendency toward keening down the prieo of cattle, and has, consequently, added to thu btiiduus of our agricultural population." The secretary rec ommends that the president take advantage of the reciprocity chime of the .Mo Kin ley law, which authorizes him to restore the old duty upon hides shipped from nuy country which shall not by the lirst of .January, 1SD2, have grant ed equal concessions by the free admission of the agricultural pro ducts of the I'nited States, to put thu duty bauk upon hides shipped from those countries which have not entered into reciprocal agree ments with us.
