THE HOOD RIVER LEASE.
A gentleman, well acquainted wit
toe people of Hood River, once chance
to drop into court here while a jury trial
was in progress. Observing the jury a
moment, he remarked to one of the at
torneys that that jury would never
agree, no matter what the evidence or
nature of the caee might be. Being
asked his reasoj s, he replied that two
men on the jury were from Hood River,
and no two men from that community
were ever known to pgree on any eub
ject. This is well illustrated by the way
the people down there are, "chewing the
rag" over the recent lease of the river to
the Hood River Lumbering Co. Two or
three corporations have heretofore been
organized for the avowed purpoee of
improving the river so as to make it fit
to transport the timber ot the valley to
market, but none have ever attempted
the work because it required too much
capital to make that turbulent stream a
highway for floating logs. Now that a
company is actually threatening to do
-what will be of greater benefit to that
turbulent little town than any enter
prise ever before started there, tuere is
wild excitement and abuse of the county
court for entering into the contract of
lease. By the way, the whole scheme
was warmly supported and heartily ap
proved by the Hood River end of the
county court.
We would suggest that Hood River let
the people who have the courage to
spend money in their community in im
proving their . stream alone. At leaet
$20,000 or $30,000 will be required to
make the proposed improvement, and
that amount of money turned loose,
even in that rich community, will help
everybody out a little.
SENA TOR COGS WELL.
State Senator Cogswell has done what
a great many men in the Democratic
party ought to do, viz, visit "Washing
ton and hear the great men of his party
discuss the tariff question. He dis
covered, what almoEt any Oregon i an of
intelligence would discover, that the
Democratic idea of tariff and revenue
legislation is eo mixed as to be worse
than useless, for our state at least, and
that the Republican party is the only
party which is united upon sound prin
ciples as to finance and revenue.
If the state was not so overwhelm
ingly Republican it might be worth
while to pay the expenses of all the
brainy men in the Democratic party to
"Washington and let them hear their
leaders in congress talk. More converts
could thus be made than by a cam
paign "of the state by Republican
epeakers.
We suggest to the Republican cam
paign committees that they hire a hotel
in Washington and entertain the Denio
: crats of the state during the remainder
of the session of congress.
The prize-fighters have been driven
from pillar to post, and now they have
fallen into the tender hands of the fed
eral authorities. Uncle Sam never does
a thing by halves, and the result will be
that either there will be no fight in any
of tne territories, or, if the fighters avoid
the marshals and maul each other, they
will be far worse punished for the viola
tion of the law. The tramps had their
own way in nearly all the states until
the U. S. government took the matter
in hand, and then they had to keep off
the grass and leave railroad trains alone.
Debs and his fellow-strikers ran riot in
Chicago until the federal troops ap
peared, and then the violaters of the
law and all who advised, aided or abetted
.them, were punished. Prize-fighting
has been Btopped in all states, even in
Texas, and they will find it a bigger
task to knock out Uncle Sam than any
task they have heretofore tackled. The
world is improving in many ways, the
liberties of the violaters of the law are
being restricted everywhere.
The report of the receiver of the Port
land Sayings Bank, published in yes
terday's Oregonian, indicates what
many predicted when the bank was
closed that the assets wonld gradually
De exnaustea in payment of receiver's
and other salaries. Among the expenses
faring the three months from Novem
ber 1st to January Slst, is $2,444 23,
legal expenses; . $1323.05, receiver's ex
penses; $1805.61. expenses of operating
building. Thin looks to one on the out
side, who has some hard-earned funds
in the inside, as if the operation of the
bank was now for the sole purpose of
using up all the deposits and assets to
save the trouble of paying a dividend.
The court which appointed the receiver
ought to see to it that something is done
for the depositors.
people oi uregon, especially in
ome of the cities, complain bitterly of
high . taxes. As compared with the
state of Washington, however, we are
very fortunate. In many of the cities of
the size of The Dalles the indebtedness
has grown to the neighborhood of $100,-
000 and the tax rate to four or five mills
Oregon has advanced more slowly than
our sister state in many respects, par
ticularly as to indebtedness. We hope
we shall always be behind in this par-
jcular.
GOLDEN
MEDICAL
DISCOVERY
Many years ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting: physician to the Invalids' Hotel
and Sureical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., com
pounded this medicine of vegetable ingredi
ents which had an especial effect upon the
stomach and liver, rousing the organs to
healthful activity as well as purifying: and
enriching the blood. By such means the
stomach and the nerves are supplied with
pure blood; they will not do duty without it
any more than a locomotive can run with
out coal. -You can not get a lasting cure of
Dyspepsia, or Indigestion, by taking arti
ficially digested foods or pepsin the stom
ach must do its own work in its own way.
Do not put your nerves to sleep with so
called celery mixtures, it is better to go to
the seat of the difficulty and feed the nerve
cells on the food they require. Dyspepsia,
Indigestion, Biliousness and Nervous Af
fections, such as sleeplessness and weak,
nervous feelings are completely cured by
the " Discovery." It puts on healthy flesh,
bring3 refreshing sleep and invigorates the
whole system.
