The Oregon City platform favors dis
pensing with the state militia. They
were very handv yesterday to Gov,
Waite.
The populist platform slnrs the tariff
issue entirely. If they shrieked for free
trade, as they did two years ago, they
would irrevocably offend the wool grow
ers of Oregon. Hence they grind out
some other tune.
It rarely happens that a man does not
know in what' state he lives, but the
surveyors who located the boundary be
tween Pennsylvania and Delaware dis
covered such a case. A stanch demo
crat, who 'supposed he lived in Delaware,
was running for office in a democratic
county, and finds that he lives just 100
feet within the state of Pennsylvania, in
a republican district. ,
Some of the Southern Oregon papers
ere trying to hoom Charlie Nickell, of
. the Democratic Times, for congressman
in the place of Binger Hermann
What's the matter with Hermann? He
has been and is filling the position with
maraea credit to Oregon and himself,,
and to make a "change" would be on a
parallel with November 8ih, 1892. The
people have had enough of "change,"
without any more monkeying business.
Bill Nye has gone into politics. He
eays : "Go where you will in this coun
try today, and you will find men talking
about the tariff and tax on raw material
who haven't had a mouthful of raw
material or any other kind in their house
for weeks, except as 'their wives have
earned it and brought it to them. The
country is f uli of men who have thought
so hard for the commonwealth that the
seat of their trousers shines like the
..dome of the Iowa' state house:"
"While populist and democratic dema
gogues are laying their heads together
- and-considering how best they can de
'feat the republicans in the June elec
tions, the intelligent voter is asking
1 himself the .question "How shall I work
iand vote bo as to bring about a Bpeedy
treturn of good times?" That is just now
tne real question al issue. The one
great thought that now perplexes the
raiDds of most men, is not whether he
will fuse with this one or with that one,
but where the next dollar is coming
from, and' few men will care who they
elect so long as they can get a chance to
earn a living. Mere politics don't count
for much in these days ; but wherever
elections have' been held so far in this
.year of grace, it would seem that the
'large majority of voters look upon "re
:publican success" and "returning pros
perity" as synonymous terms. Port
'land Chronicle:
The voting population of the city of
-Ashland is about 400, of whom forty or
'fifty are populists. Last Monday, says
the Tidings, the populists concluded to
capture the school meeting, and they
did so. They mustered about two
' thirds of their whole voting force, and
-other people paid as little attention to
the school meeting as usual, so that only
. about sixty votes all told attended the
meeting and the populists had a major
ity of the votes. They had been very
-slyly preparing for this great coup in
rsecret caucuses for several weeks the
(plutocratic office holders of. the school
district must be cleaned : out and the
new era of populism "planted at once.
The school election was a good place to
plant it, and the edict went' forth to
' turn out and populize the school meet
ing, wnen tne election came up, no
populist seemed to be anxious to sacri
fice himself upon the thorny eminence
of the school directorship for three years
of unpaid public duty of a very annoy
ing kind-there is no salary attached to
the office of Bchool director.. But when
it comes to school clerk, that is a differ
ent matter1 the clerk gets feeB for his
work. The populists concluded that the
clerkship was their oyster and so it
was. They nominated and elected T.
W. Bryant over C. H. Gillette, who is
one of the most efficient and careful
school clerks the district has ever had.
The dancing contest, which was to
take place at Armory hall Saturday
night, will occur April 7th. Badges are
good for one soiree only. '''.

UNCLE SAM'S BIG FLEET.
It
Is Scattered All Over the Earth
Pro-
tectlna; American Interests.
At no time within recent years has
the United States government been so
well represented in foreign waters by
an armed naval force, nor so poorly
provided for in ships' at home, as at
present. Three big cruisers are at Rio
Janeiro, two more are on their way
there, and this- number will be in
creased to six by the monitor Mian-
tonomoh. The gunboat Yorktown is
at Callao, Peru, and the corvette Al
liance has sailed to join her, from La
Libertad. The old Yantlc is stationed
permanently at the month of the Rio
de la Plata, charged with the duty of
attending to American interests in
adjacent territory.
The Ranger, which sailed from La
Libertad recently for Corinto, Nicara
g-ua, is assigned to the west coast of
Central America, where revolutionary
outbreaks are so. frequent, while the
corvette Kearsarge, now en route from
New York to San Domingo to afford
protection to American life and prop-
erty in ' the threatened uprising theret
will cruise about the West Indies, and.
until relieved by the cruiser San Fran
cisco, along the east coast of Central
America. The Philadelphia and the
Adams are at Honolulu. The Asiatic
or China station, which has become so
important through the hostile feeljng
of the Chinese toward Americans over
the exclusion law, has six vessels at
tached to it, and ifcis expected that the
Machias, now at Brooklyn, will sail
soon to join them.
The North Atlantic or home station
has nominally five but actually only
one vessel in commission to its credit,
for the ban i rancisco is on her way to
Kio, the Kearsarge is bound for San
Domingo (which can hardly be called
a "home" port, although within the
lines of the station), and the Machias is
destined for China. The dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius is therefore likely to
be the sole war vessel left for service
on the eastern coast of the United
States, and the practicability of the
Vesuvius as an effective battleship is
in serious doubt. At the na-ryyard at
Mare Island, CaL, the old Mohican is
fitting for sea service, presumably in
the South' Pacific. ' The coast defense
vessel Monterey is also at Mare Island.'
LAND BARONS.
They Hold Millions of Acres of
Swamp
Land in .Louisiana.
The New Orleans Picayune prints a-
table of the land barons of Louisiana
and their holdings of unimproved tim
ber and swamp tracts,' from which it
appears that alien syndicates, compa
nies and individuals own more than
2,200,000 acres. One syndicate claims
400,000 -acres,, several possess 100,000
and 'more and holdings of from 20,000
to 90,000 acres are not uncommon.
Most of this land is owned in the west
ern states', but to capitalists of New
York and Philadelphia several hundred
thousand acres belong.
The Picayune explains that origin
ally the United States owned all of
the lands in Louisiana other than those
which at "the time of the cession by
France were held by private persons
or corporations. Subsequently what
were known as swamp lands, that is to
say, lands that were subject to tidal
overflow from the sea or were annu
ally flooded by the Mississippi, became
the property of the state, with the pro
vision that it should sell them for the
purpose of raising- a fund to build
levees." A considerable territory, con
sisting of prairie and forest, land, was
retained by the United States to be
sold as homesteads. Such a disposi
tion was made of this land, but it is
now largely in possession of syndicates.
The Picayune's table includes the
swamp, homestead and sea-marsh
lands. The last named, a lion's share
of which has been acquired by the
Watkins syndicate, must be drained
and diked like the Holland coast, and
some progress in. this. work has already
been made.
. Mothers, and especially nursing -mothers,
need the strengthening support and
neip tnat comes with Dr. .Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription. It lessens the pains
and burdens of child-bearine. insures
healthy, vigorous offspring and pro
motes an abundant secretion of nourish
ment on the part of the mother.. It is
an invigorating tonic, made esDeciallv
lor women, perfectly harmless in anv
condition of the female system, as it
regulates and promotes all the natural
functions and never conflicts with them.
The "Prescription," builds up, strength
ens, and cures. In all the chronic weak
nesses and disorders that afflict women,
it is guaranteed to benefit or cure or the
money is refunded.
For every case of Catarrh which they
cannot cure, the proprietors of Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Bemedy agree to pay
$500 in cash. You're cured by its mild,
soothing, cleansing, and healing proper
ties, or you're' paid.
The opera of ."Richard III.," by Sal-vayre,-
has been produced in Rouen
with tremendous success. It is said to
be a production of the first rank and
bound to be heard in all the principal
Opera houses of Europe.

When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria.
When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria,
When she had Children, she gave them Castoria.

A VCO'O
Sarsaparilla
S. P. Smith, of Towanda, Pa.,
whose constitution was completely
broken down, .is cured by Ayer'a
Sarsaparilla.' He writes:
" For eight years, I was", most of the
time, a great sufferer from constipa
tion, kidney trouble, and indiges
tion, so that my constitution seemed
to be completely broken down. I was
induced to try Ayei's Sarsaparilla, and
took nearly seven bottles, withsuch
excellent results that my stomach,
bowels, and kidneys are in perfect con
Y
dition, and, in all their functions,- as
regular as clock-work.- At the time
I began taking Ayer'a Sarsaparilla, my
weight was only 129 pounds ; I now can
brag of 159 pounds, and was never in so
good health. If you could see me be
fore.and after using, you would want
me for a traveling advertisement.
I believe this preparation of Sarsaparilla
to be the best in the market to-day."
