No better evidence is . needed than that of the report of the press committee of the national convention recently held in If ew York as to the sentiment of tbe public respecting the isthmus canal. The committee says : " "If the committee were asked from what source the great est opposition to the construction of the Nicaragua canal proceeds, it would be obliged in truth to say the railroad in terests, which seem to see in it a com petition which will decrease the coat of trans-continental shipments and impair the size of their dividends." No stronger illustration of the urgent necessity for the canal can be fonnd than in the fact that the charges of the transcontinental railroads are so excessive that a Council Bluffs, Iowa, shipper found it cheaper to ship goods destined for San Francisco, to New York and thence by clipper around Cape Horn, 17,000 miles to the Golden Gate, rather than directly from Council Bluffs to San Francisco by the Pacific railroad. The fact that the railroads are said to have a well or ganized lobby at Washington, to fight the caual bill, gains added significance from this state of things, which ought to . arouse the dormant energies of the - commercial spirit of the United States Gold monometallism is revolutionary and destructive," says Mr. Stewart of Nevada, in a 16-page speech on the 4th of January. Bill will soon come about and, tell us that "leather may be coined." It is only a step from the sublime to the ridiculous. ihe land omce at La Oraude did a larger business last year than any other land office in the United States, and when we take into consideration that the expenses of this office were below that of many others it shows good busi ness management on the part of the officials. A number of old pioneers of Whitman county are desirous of perpetuating and keeping green the memory of early days in the bunuhgrass hills. With this end in view a proposition has been advanced for a grand pioneer reunion to be held at Colfax, probably July 4th. The data for the early history could thus be gath ered and preserved. Steps for the or ganization of a Whitman county pioneer association, will also be taken. 'Colonel Jones, of the St. Lonia Re public, has informed Mr. Cleveland that he does not want a cabinet position. The colonel got in his declination early for fear Mr. Cleveland might forget to make it necessary. There are several reasons why Colonel Jones would, never "be invited into the cabinet, and they are well known both in St. Louis and Washington. The sundry civil appropriation bill before congress on the 1st, was amended -by Holtnan of Indiana so as to cat it $fty per cent, but after a long debate, was rejected by a vote of 48 yeas to 139 nays. Outhwait of Ohio offered an amendment making a cut of seventy per cent, which was voted down as fol lows, 32 ayes to 149 nays. This leaves the cascade canal appropriation in good " shape. - ' " The only '.- first-class Muse in The Dalles. MRS. FRASER, -AT THH- HELP1 HELP 1 THE LADY FAHTTS. ' - Tta the twins: of an eye, - .

When sudden fainting1 spells come upon a lady, you may always suspect some uterine disturbances or trouble, or some great disorder in the circulation and nerve centers. A remedy that has al ways proved successful in warding off and removing' the tendency to a recurrence of fainting spells that removes the cause of them, corrects the circulation of blood, and gives to tha system that even run ning nervous energy so essential, is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. The "Prescription" is guaranteed to give satisfaction in every case, or money refunded. Nothing else does as much. You only pay for the good you get. Can you ask more? As a regulator, and promoter of func tional action, at the critical period of change from girlhood to womanhood, 'Favorite Prescription" is a perfectly safe remedial agent, and can produce only good results. . It is equally effica cious and valuable in its effects when taken for those disorders and derange ments incident to that later and most critical period, known as "The chaag of Life.

We suppose some of the members who opposed the bill for a portage railroad around the dalles of the Columbia will favor the appropria tion of $400,000 for the purchase of the locks at Oregon city by the state. If either one is a local proposition it is the purchase of the locks. That will bene fit no one for the locks are already in operation, but al! of Eastern Oregon must be deprived of the benefits of an open river while their money is squan dered in taking an expensive property off of private hands. The Ealey bill has been reconsidered, and it is to be hoped that before the final vote is taken on the measure the eyes of the "legislators may be opened to the necessity of pass ing the bill. , It Should be In Erery Honse- ' J.
