' A "calamity howler" is the product of
selfishness run to seed. Aa Lather
used to say, "every man has a pope in
his belly," so it may be said every man
is a natural born monopolist. From the
boot black,; the . pea-nnt vender, the
country eddler, who carries his stock
in trade in a grip eack to the manu
facturer or . warehouseman who .turns
over scores of millions of dollars an
i nually, all are monopolists, all are
possessed of an innate wish to control
the entire trade of business of their own
district. Brooding over J.he riches that
others Lavs picked up on the journey of
life, the "calamity howler" has come to
think that the fruit of energy and
conomy is a crime when the other fel
low reap6 it. To hear him talk one
would think the greatest of all crimes
was to get rich, and yet the last one of
themselves is busily engaged in looking
.for a soft snap at other peoples expense
-and acting precisely on the principle
they, so loudly condemn in others.
Human nature is the same in General
"Weaver or Adventurer Korke, who howl
for the coin , there is in it as it is in
Clans Spreckles or Jay Gonld.
In the light of the present altitude of
the democratic party on the tariff ques
tion it as interesting to remember that
1883 Ohio democrats circulated a pamph
let arraigning the republican party in
the following language :
. "The republican president, tariff com
missioner and congress, at the bidding
of the monopolists of New England, wan
tonly and wickedly reduced the duty on
wool so as to enable foreign producers
to compete advantageously with native
growers. The average reduction of the
duty, you will remember was 18 per
cent. With the reduction of 18 per cent,
the abandonment to a great extent of
- sheep raiding must inevitably follow,' if
the pernicious course assigned by the
republican party is allowed to be carried
out. The democratic party, as
the facts show, have been steadily and
v' earnestly opposed to the perpetration of
this great wrong against the people." '
And in 18S6 the platform of demo-
- i-rats of this state of Oregon said :
"We condemn the action of the repub
lican congress in reducing the tariff on
wool."
v If it was "wanton" and "wicked" and
a great wrong upon the people" to re
duce the tariff on wool 18 per cent in
1883, what shall we call the placing of
- wool on the free list in 1892 ?
Democratic papers that have helped
" to swell the howl of the calamity shriek
ers ought not to be surprised if their
labor should produce fruit corresponding
"with the character of the seed sown.
.After men have been taught to be dis
satisfied with .everything, it is not
strange that they should refuse to bS
-satisfied with any candidates for office
whom they, themselves, have not nomi
nated. Veatch is in every way a better
. man than Rorke, and is largely in ac
cord with the people's party, but that
party won't support him. It prefers a
mere adventurer who is in politics for
the living he gets out of it. Hermann
'. would probably beat Veatch under any
circumstances but with Korke in the
field, Veatch has not the ghost of a show.
The democrats have succored a viper
and now it stings them". The people's
party is no democratic annex in Oregon
his year.
The Klamath Star describes Hermann's
opponent in the first congressional dis
trict in the following fashion : "Veatch
is behind the age. -He. echoes in the
rear of progressive thought. From the
stump of the- demagogue he echoes in
appeals to the prejudices of the ignorant.
He is wind, empty of everything but an
odor of moss, mingled with an occasional
whiff' from the venerable chestnut
. grovel" - - . .
The Presbyterian church claims to
have twenty millions of .adherents
throughout the world. There are 16,000
churches 'of this faith in Canada and the
United States, 2,000 congregations in
Hungary and more churches in France
than, in Ireland.
Destructive . insects . 5 are .'becoming
alarmingly prevalent in eastern Oregon
An exchange tells of a kind in his town
that eat brick and cement plaster.
They are supposed to s-6 to bed of nights
with, a heavy load on their stomachs.
; The. Astoria : Herald says: "The
present indications are thathe people's
. party will receive about five votes in
Clatsop county, as most of the Weaver's
constituents are in the insane asvlum.'
TU Progress of Tolapufc.
It is a very interesting fact that the
world language, Volapuk, is not only
coming to be spoken conversationally by
its enthusiastic votaries, but is to be
made a' medium of interlingual commu
nication at the World's Columbian fair.
A complete record of progress made :in
spreading Volapuk since that delightful
national convention of its votaries was
held in ' Boston, considerably more than
a year ago, would astonish all but the
few who keep closest watch on the move
ment. A significant circumstance" is
that recently the Young People's Society
of Christian Endeavor of the People's
church,- Boston, formally adopted Vola
puk as a study for that organization,
and a class of forty members (expected.
to double shortly) was formed, to meet
each Monday evening in the church's
reading room for instruction.
Other noteworthy instances are as fol
lows: The people of Newton, quite at
their own request, are to have a lecture
on Volapuk ' under the auspices of a
ladies' association there. Salem and
Gloucester are to have lectures in Janu
ary, and the interest all over the'eoun
try is similarly manifested. . Newspaper
lessons, published simultaneously all
over the maritime provinces, Canada
and the United States, have been given
weekly since Oct. 10. Th students
write out the exercises of the lessons and
send them to convenient points, as desig
nated, for- annotation, and immense
numbers of young and old of both sexes
are following- the lessons. Boston Ad

Area of th.e Canadian Dominion.
In the last issue of ' the .Statisti
cal Year Book of Canada, com
piled by Mr. Sydney C. D.-Roper
of the statistics , branch of the de
partment of agriculture, we find that
the total area of the dominion is com
puted to be 8,456,383 square miles. In
this estimate 140,730 square miles are
assigned to water and 3,315,047 to land
surface. The table, which yields this
total is said to be an entirely new one,
having been specially prepared at the
request of the compiler of the Year
Book by the Topographical Survey
branch of the department of the in
terior. "The measures have all," we are told,
."been made anew and checked, and
may be depended on, in ' so far as war
ranted by - the present geographical
knowledge of the country. No change
will be made in these figures unless
based upon new1 information." As this
is a question on which there has been a
good deal of discussion and much differ
ence of opinion, it is satisfactory to
receive this assurance from what we
may regard as the highest official and
professional authority. Montreal Ga
zette. Dr. Talmsge'a Now Tear's Maxims.

Something; That Raa Been Needed.
For some time past the public have
been looking for an adjustable jgrille,
with shelf attachment, upon which to
place bric-a-brac, the whole to be ar
ranged over windows or doorways to re
lieve this portion of a room, which is
usually dependent npon a curtain pole.
The great trouble has always been that
they had to be made to order, as win
dows and doors vary in width. Now.
however, a device is made narrow enough
to go into the narrowest doorway. It is
in two sections, running upon a sliding
top bar. By drawing these pieces apart
they can be extended to the width of
the door, and the open place left in the
center of them is furnished with a short
drapery. Philadelphia Upholsterer.
The Boys Did the Job.
An East Dover -(Me.) farmer had a
mare something over 20 years old, and
not thinking it advisable to winter
her, spoke to some boys to take her out,
shoot her and bury her for a money con
sideration. Boys No. 1 and 2 did the
job all right, bat No. 8, not knowing the
mare had been killed, went the follow
ing day to the farmer's barn, and find
ing an animal in the stable, took him
out and led him down to a piece of
woods, shot and buried him. Imagine
the farmer's surprise on coming home to
find that boy No. 3 had shot and buried
a nice 5-year-old, worth in the neighbor
hood of $200. Boston Transcript.
. Big Coon, Bio; Tree, Small Man. -
A party consisting of D. M. Rawlins,
H. C. Brown and others, of Brown's
Mill, went out coon hunting the other
night and caught the largest coon and
cut down the largest tree yet on record.
The coon weighed twenty-seven pounds
and the tree was nearly fifteen feet
across the -stump.'" The tree was very
hollow, and Mr. Nathan Singlet ary,-who
is not a very large man,' went into the
hollow of the tree and came out at a
knot hole. Cor. Atlanta Constitution.
''lola Penance. .
An old woman has taken up her abode
in a wood on Lord Annaly's estate at
Ejldysart. C She has made a bed of fern
leaves between the trunks of trees, sticks
and ferns forming a" rude thatch. The
only article of furniture is, a crucifix.
fane subsists on bread and water, and
says she has resorted to' this wretched
mode of existence as a penance. Lon

TO THE PUBLIC It having come
to our knowledge that a party in
The Dalles in selling lime has made the
assertion that he charges more for other
brands than the "Oregon" because they
are better, thereby implying that the
"Oregon" is an inferior article we desire
to state that the "Oregon" is the strong
est lime on- the market ; that it -will work
more plastic and leave the work when set
stronger and firmer than any other lime at
present manufactured in either Oregon
or "Washington. Wm. BttilertS; Co., Agents
