The Chkoniclk does not believe, simply because it is a newspaper, that it has any right to publicly air the grievances of any of its individual mem bers, nor has it done so. It is within its province, however, to expose any act of inal-administration of the city, county or state officers, and this it has fearlessly done in the past and will continue so to do in the future. Neither has The Chronicle so far said anything about the impossibility of securing an item of news at the county clerk's office, al though the law is plain that reporters, in common with any private citizen, may learn upon application of any real estate transfer, incorporation, marriage license, etc., which events have to do with this department of our county of ficers. Fortunately, through the effi ciency and vigilance of The Chronicle's corps of reporters, it has so far got the most important of this kind of news from other sources. But let this go. It is of a flagrant violation of law we would speak, a case of pure gall, without any show of palliation or excuse. The Chronicle is the official paper of Wasco county, was so declared by the county court at a regular meeting. This decision carries with it the exclusive right to publish all official reports which are to be paid for from the county funds. The Chronicle was the only paper which complied with the law requiring the newspapers who wish to compete for the county printing to file with the county court a sworn statement of their circulation, and was declared the official paper of Wasco county. Hence the semi-annual statement of the county clerk published in the Sun of the 19th inst., was illegally given. The Chron icle will pcotest the action. ' It is a wise law they have in Michi gan, allowing 90 days grace for banks to pay savings depositors. The banks of Lansing have just been subjected to a panic, when they took advantage of this provision of law and thereby saved them selves from bankruptcy and their patrons from loss. A solvent bank is often short of ready money and in case of a sudden and unusual draught upon its resources could not meet the demands. This has caused the collapse of hundreds of good banks in the past, but the Michigan law will decrease the per cent, amazingly. An Oregouian correspondent at Wash ington telegraphes that Oregon demo crats are Incoming more and more dis couraged and now talk ugly. Some of them realize that they made a.mistak in awarrniiig here, but they tnink the will hang 4m a while longer- and watt for apjTQjntmeuts to come their way. J "JfcrSperry, ol i'ortlaud, filed an applica tion at the treasury department for col lector of internal revenue. Yesterday's action of the chamber of representatives in granting universal suffrage has completely allayed the in dustrial uprising. The strikers at Bel gium, Antwerp and at other places gen erally resumed work this morning. No further trouble is anticipated. The decision of Judge Fee, at Union, Or., in the circuit court, in the impor tant suit between Fred Nodine and J. G. Shirley, two wealthy land owners, in volving a large sum, was handed down today. It gives Nodine judgment for $17,350,060 and costs. Erom present appearances the Behring sea arbitration will result favorably to the United States. The English supple mentary evidence, upon which great hopes had been placed, has been barred out. Captain Sweeney, U.

A Harvard student told me an amus ing story about himself the other day. It seems that recently his mother had a young lady guest at their home on the Back Bay, and when he came from col lege in the afternoon he was introduced to her. At dinner also she sat opposite him at the table. He paid little atten tion to the fair visitor, as his mind was engrossed with a problem in his lessons. However, his brothers were as assiduous as possible in entert ining her. As it happened, the latter had engagements out that evening, and, as Mrs. A. had promised Miss B. to have one of her sons take her to the theater, it fell to the lot of my friend George, the Harvard man. He accepted the situation gracefully, and in due time the young couple set off for the theatre. Arriving, George left his companion at one side of the lobby while he stepped np to the box office and purchased the tickets; then, turning about, he looked toward the place where he had parted from the young lady, and was surprised to see half a dozen there, and ye gods! is it possible? he could not tell which was his precious charge! Here was a dilemma. George said he immediately decided thai, rather than risk speaking to the wrong person, he would stand still till the young lady spoke to him. So he gazed at his tickets for what seemed to him an age, but was probably only a minute', when Miss B. came up and said, "I fear you did not recognize me." "Oh, yes yes " stammered George, equivo cating "yes, I did; I thought they had not given me the seats I asked for, and was considering what was best to do in the matter." Boston Herald. A Rich bat Unapproachable Country. There are said to be five counties in Missouri and eleven in Arkansas, com prising a strip of country 123 miles square, that have no railroad communi cation with the outside world, and are yet wonderfully rich in zino ore. This section of the country lies south and west of the Memphis railroad, north and west of the Iron Mountain, south and east of the St. Louis and San Francisco and north of the Arkansas river. The zinc carbonates of this region yield 83 per cent, and the "jack" 60 per cent, of pure zinc ore. A traveler, Mr. W. E. Wimer, of Kansas City, says that he found in the mountain a cave even larger than the Mammoth cave. The manner "Of life of the people is extremely primitive. They live in log houses without windows. Bacon is their main staple of diet and tobacco their only solace. They seldom work sa long as they have food and to bacco in the house. But they are virtu ous, peaceable and kindly disposed to the stranger. Pittsburg Dispatch. The man who buys snoestAngs ana other small articles from street fakirs doesn't always do so because he gets them, or thinks he gets them, cheaper. It is chiefly because men engaged in business are usually so absentminded that trifles of everyday use are never thought of unless they are pushed right under the business nose. As a rule the stuff bought of street venders costs two to five times as much as it would in a legitimate store. But it is on this single weakness of mankind that the street fakir lives and thrives. A man will fool with a broken shoestring a dozen morn ings before he will remember to get a new pair. Then suddenly during a busy day he runs against a shoestring peddler and bays a pair on the spot, paying doable price for what his dealer would give him for nothing. The fakirs thrive best in the closest and most busy -centers. Down in Wall and Broad and New and Nassau streets, among the bankers and brokers and law yers, who are too busy to think of sus penders and shoestrings and lead pencils, etc, the street fakirs fare well, for amid the roar of clashing millions the absent minded man clutches hastily on what comes uppermost,, knowing that other wise hell forget all about it- - A Copper Plated Ceiling. The use of copper in decorative metal work is largely on the increase, by rea son of the ease with which it can be used irt various electroplating processes. The trotyping of metal has been carried far that entire shop fronts are con- cted by this process. One of the ngs of the Equitable building is e or electroplated copper on wood. hich exhibits the capabilities of this lUtiful method of interior decoration. Decorator and Furnisher. A Curious Funeral Ceremony. It is said that when Alaric, the con queror of Rome, died that "a river was turned aside to make place in its bed for his grave, and when he was buried the water was again let into its former chan nel, and the prisoners who had helped to bury him were killed so that no one might find out where the conqueror of Rome was buried. The river thus turned was the Busen to, and the place near Cosento, Italy. St Louis Republic. A Singular Cripple. A singular story comes from Russia of a young man, known as the "Dying Prophet," who for several months past has died, to all appearances, every Sat urday and returned to life every Mon day. This person, by name Tagarelli, was born at Tiflis, in the Caucasus, and has been bedridden since early child hood. At the first of these singular phenomena his body was prepared for burial, which was to have taken place on Monday, on which day he returned to life. He declares that he really does die, and is obliged to look upon the book of the recording angel and see on its pages the names of his acquaint ances, with the list of their evil deeds and thoughts. These he tells to those of -their perpetrators who visit him, and, it is said, never makes a mistake. Among others who "visited him was a newspaper reporter, who went with the avowed purpose of exposing a fraud, bat he rushed from Tagarelli's room with a white face, exclaimimg to his friends: "Take me away I I have lived an hour in the day of judgement " Pub lic Opinion. elec F2 ELECTRIC FLASHES. The treasury financial condition shows, if" any change, a slightly easier feeling. Gaudaur, the sculler, is seriously ill, and all his matches at the world's fair and with the Australian champion may have to be declared off. The debate on the second reading of the home-rnle bill will be concluded to morrow. In the morning Gladstone will deliver a speech, followed by Bal four, the conservative leader. Balfour will be the last speaker before taking a vote. ' Persons who are subject to attacks of bilious colic can almost invariably tell, by their feelings, when to expect an at tack.
