badly lacerated, and the center finger

All leaves of absence in the house
were revoked yesterday, except for sick
ness. Efforts are being made to unite the
democratic and peoples party of Iowa,
by giving the peoples party the elect
oral ticket and the democrats the state

election into the house, which it is
thought would elect Cleveland.
John Thomas, once a wealthy farmer
of Ada county, Idaho, informed the as

crop of Oregon in 1891 was fourteen mil

over ten million bushels. The nearest

Sherman and Wasco counties,
where, in localities, not much more
than seed will be secured."
The London Star" says that if the jari
erage of yesterday's gains are main
tained it will give the liberals a majority
of 150 in the next parliament, while
there is practical certainty the average
will be greater. Gladstone is jubilant
over the results, especially the return of
John Bruce, liberal, from Greenock.
Returns show the election of ninety-five
conservatives, forty -nine liberals and
thirty-nine liberal : unionists. The net
gain for the liberal party and Irish home
rule is eight seats. ,
A St; Petersburg dispatch" says the
cholera is advancing toward Moscow. It
has appeared on the other side of the
Volga, in Samaria. The mortality is
increasing at Baku and suburbs. The
hospitals are totally inadequate to care
for the numbers sick. Medicines .and
disinfectants are only obtainable at an
exorbitant price, and the streets are be
ing sprinkled with petroleum as a disin
fectant. Steamers have .. withdrawn
from the Batoum route- on account of
the epidemic. The Russian frontier is
closed against goods and passengers by
way of Ouzamanda. Twenty new cases
are reported at Saratosko. The disease
is spreading at" Astrakhan. At
Romanoff, and there- is ) disquieting
news from Rybinsk- The greatest vigil
ance, will be necessary if cholera spreads
to the shores of tbe Black sea, as there
is every prospect of the present epidemic

1831 and 1847.

Superintendent T. J. Driver was in the
city yesterday,, and from him we learned
that he has expended $317.00 over and
above the sums collected to complete the
Tygh Hill grade. It is admitted ' by
everybody who has given the subject
any attention whatever that Mr, Diver
has done more work for the money lie
had than was eer done before, and files
of Tiik Chronicle prove that the work
has been of lasting benefit to all. Mr
Driver invites an- inspection of his work
and his accounts-, and while he can show
that every dollar has been judicjously
expended, and that it was neccssary'for
him to expend .over $300.00 of his pri
vate funds and labor to make the road
available, it seems to us he should be
reimbursed, and that an additional $200
should be subscribed toward turn outs
on the grade. Wherever he. calls upon
the public to represent this subject, we
bespeak for him au audience.
