Free coinage, says the Klamath Star, is
a hard blow at the day laborer. That
man ia thick in the understanding who
. . i . tie . i .
cannot neo iiihi iree silver is poor
silver for the poor laborer. It is wages
in metal whose purchasing power hasn't
the strong pull of gold. A staple stand
ard of value- gives our business trans
actions a strong heart, settled bargains
and safe calculations, but a proportion
weight of silver and alloy established by
fools and theives is sur to give business
the blues. But the wisdom of this
nation is not contfned to party, for even
now both sides are shouting against this
fool and thief scheme of giving the
laborer a sterile dollar and business the
skimmilk blues. It is being pretty well
understood that the poorer the dollars
the poorer will be the earners thereof.
In a sermon recently delivered by Dr.
Parkhurst, the charge is made that New
York city, under the absolute control of
Tammany is governed largely by ei
'divekeepers and crooks and ex-convicts
and men whose detailed written history
would draw tremblingly near the verge
of obscene literature. It is a pretty try
ing state of affairs says the doctor, for
such as are attempting to improve the
moral condition of our young men in
particular, to have officials high in power
against whom the most damning and
excoriating thing that can be done is to
publish their history.. . .
The Detroit Tribune says the Michi
gan democratic delegation lately visited
Senator David B. Hill and obtained
from him the statement that he was
not a candidate for the presidency.
Hill said, "I am ambitious to obtain that
high honor but I am fully aware, while
I might secure the nomination, I should
inevitably be defeated at the polls."
All he asked was that the Michigan del
egation should vote with New York as
New York always wins. The statement
is taken cum grano salis.
The enemies of Hermann are circulat
ing a silly story to the effect that he has
worked so hard in the interests of this
state that he is tired and worn out and
feels like resigning office and taking a
' rest. A "prominent citizen" who is
also, doubtless, a thoroughbred cam
paign liar, has had a letter from Her
mann to this effect. But the scheme
-won't work. There is abundant evi
dence in Hermann's own hand writing
that he is in the field and in it to stay.
The weather in this section during the
past winter has been remarkable for its
. mildness and the spring up to date is
-.everything that the most inveterate
calamity howler conld desire. - It is in
..fact absolutely perfect and the man who
is capable of finding fault with anything
the weather clerk has done around The
.Dalles for the past six months and more
would growl at the climate of the New
Jerusalem.
The republican county convention of
Clatsop county met last Saturday in
Astoria and elected delegates to the state
convention. At the close of the meet
ing a resolution was carried instructing
the convention to vote for" Hon. C. W,
.ruiton lor congress. Air. .b niton res
pectfully declined and said he was not a
candidate for any office.
- "Jonah has killed Dave Hill." Such
is the blood ..curdling announcement of
the Klamath Star. "Dave Hill, how
ever, is not Tammany's presidential
candidate, but an Indian policeman and
; Jonah is not the man who got into the
belly of the whale but a Klamath Si wash
who got into the belly of the jail.
A Willamette valley exchange says
the practice, of carryingjarge sums of
money in the pockets is fast going out of
date. My ! how slow these Webfooters
are anyhow. . Why in this side the
mountaine, the practice : of carrying
money in one's pockets has gone out of
fashion for many a day. V

greatly by reason of the bomb throwing
tragedy have hitherto escaped the notice
of the press. Mr. Sage was doing a
large business in options or puts and
calls, spreads and straddles. -He was
not so greatly absorbed in this specialty
as he was in 1883. He 'was caught in
the panic of that year and lost a good
jnany hundred thousand dollars, and
since then has been more conservative
Lhan he was before. Still, this business
has amounted to a good many thousand
hollars some days and has afforded a
number of men an opportunity of get
ting a living.
These men are typical Wall, street
creatures. Yon see them hustling here
and there, buttonholing men and whis
pering in their ears. "They are tireless.
They know everybody who is likely to
take a little flier. Sometimes as many
as a score or more of them used to go to
Russell Sage every day and ask him
What he would charge for options on va
rious stocks and securities. Having got
Sage's terms, they scoured the streets,
professing to give tips, and in the coarse
of a week would bring in many cus
tomers to Sage. - Their usual commission
Was one-eighth of 1 per cent., and the
Smartest of them could make from ten
to twenty dollars a day.
': They brought Sage a great deal of
business first and last. But these men
have been sad eyed enough since the ex
plosion. This part of Sage s business
life is ended as much as though he had
been killed on that day, and it is a seri
ous question whether he will ever re
sume it. This has thrown these scouts
and commission agents upon their up
pers. New York Cor. Philadelphia
Press.
Sir Walter Scott's Literary Blunders.
It seems inevitable that Sir Walter
Scott should sometimes err. - When an
author is throwing off brilliant romances
at fever heat, in electric sympathy with
a teeming brain and a tingling pulse, he
cannot be expected to be overcareful.
No one knew better than he a famous
horseman himself the limits of endur
ance in a horse. He makes Wilfred of
Ivanhoe advise his enemy, the Templar,
to take a fresh steed for the ' fierce tilt
he was to run with him. Wilfred him
self had no chargers of remount; he had
but one steed, the gift of Isaac of York,
and was compelled to run five successive
courses vn rapid succession on the unf or
runaie animal. Horse ana man were
both sheathed in armor. The day was
hot and sultry. No steed that ever was
foaled could have stood the ordeal. Bat
this maybe hypercriticism. ' Is it hyper-
criticism also to point oat that in the
same novel a full century is dropped in
such sort that one of Richard Ts knights
holds converse with a contemporary of
the Conqueror, who was Richard's great-
great-grandfather? Or that the "Fair
Maid of Perth" goes to mass in the after
noon, whereas mass cannot be celebrated
save in the earlier part of the day? Bel
