WHERE CHARITY BEGINS.
It is amusing to see the spasmodic
throes of virtue which our contem
porary, the Oregonian, actually suf
fers from when the San Francisco
newspapers are brought to its atten
tion. Those papers may be, proba
bly are, salacious, but the general
condemnation of San Francisco and
California on that account is inex
cusable. The Oregonian runs on a
high moral plane sometimes con
demns sensational news items, and
publishes them; plucks greedily at
the California mote, and is silent as
the grave about the beam, aye! gird
ers, joists and mudsills, in the Orego
nian optic.
It is a fact well known that for
vice and immorality Portland will
hold its own with any city of its size
in the United States, Morally and
politically it is rotten, and the Ore
gonian not only knows it, but at
times .when it goes after Hume, Pen
, noyer, or someone else it does not
like, says it. This does not make
San Francisco better, but it
should prevent it being held up as a
model of immorality by the news
papers (or rather the newspaper, for
there is only one of Oregon. When
it comes to vice and crime, Portland
has added a codicil to the decalogue,
and has degrees and depths of both
that would make Paris despair of
keeping inside the distance pole in a
contest with her. The business por
tion of the city is only reached from
her railroad depot by passing through
a wilderness ot vice. Phryne, a little
decayed and wrinkled with age, but
hand-painted and kiln-fired, exposes
herself in scant garments at all hours
of the day and night; opium joints,
above and below ground, foul with
villainous smells, fetid air, and orna
mented with rare old China bric-a-brac,
lure the young and foolish of
either sex to their everlasting un
doing. But we are dealing with, and not
in, sensational journalism, hence can
only pan the rim-rock; the pay and
conditions lower down need a little
giant, and should be worked only
with a hydraulic.
We suggest, in the light of these
things, that our big contemporary
turn its hose on Couch precinct for a
siarier, ana lei ine sweet morsels ot
its tender charity remain at hom g
GIVE IT A CHANCE.
Already it is being asserted that
the new tariff bill will not produce
revenue sufficient for the needs of
government, and already the asser
tion is being hotly denied by the
Republican press. It is not only
possible, but probable, the revenue
will be insufficient, and for the best
of reasons. One, if we go to
the direct cause, instead of laying
the blame on the effect is the inordi
nate desire of a lot of garrulous ofd
men in the United States senate to
indulge in that propensity, The
result was unnecessaiy delay in pass
ing the bill, and the consequent im
portation of millions of dollars' worth
cf foreio-n nrodntsf. fnr trio nvnmpfl
purpose of putting the money that
should go under the new law into
the vaults kof the government, into
the pockets of speculators. In wool
'' alone it is estimated, that enough has
been imported to meet all require
ments for more than a year. In this
item alone the Dingley bill will be
robbed of its power to produce reve
nue for more than a year, and the
Amount is in the millions.
So with other products on the free
list under the Wilson bill, but sub
ject to tariff under the Dingley bill.
There is a handsome surplus in the
treasury, which the importations of
the past few months have largely in
creased, but it is extremely probable
this will be used np betore the full
effect of the Diogley bill can be felt.
That bill may or may not produce
sufficient revenue; but before it is
condemned on that account, it should
at least be given a chance.
The Topeka woman who ran away
from her husband to go with the En
deavorers "to San Francisco has
caused considerable newspaper com
ment that does not go to the gist of
the matter. The offense she com
mitted was probab'y in marrying
the man, and the running away only
involved the offense of taking ad
vantage of excursion rates. She
went just as far as she could for the
money, while be paid full fare to find
her.- She was false and a financier;
he was fond, faithful, and a fool to
follow the fickle fetnale

TRAVELS OF A DIAMOND, "
Story of a Paris Jeweler's Experience witll
a Very Fine Stone.
Some years ago a Paris jeweler told a
story of one diamond which, had passed
over his counter no less than 11 times.
It was a beautiful stone of nearly four
carats, of perfect color and luster, but
easily identified by means of a small
"feather" in the tip of the lowest part.
He bought it from an East India dealer
and had it set in a ring-. U was sold to a
countess in 1860, just before the out
break of the Franco-Prussian war. The
countess died in a few weeks, and the
ring was worn by her husband. He waa
killed in the siege of Paris, and a few!
days after his death tho ring was
brought in the ring and sold it to the
mon soldier. He was arrested, and the
ring was sent to the family of the dead
count. Before the siege ended they
brought in the ding and sold it to the.
dealer in order to procure money to
buy food. Directly after the siege
passed into the hands of an English
tourist who visited, the city, to get a
look at the ruin wrought by the com
munists, and a year later back came the
stone from the Indian buyer of the firm,
who, on beijig written to and desired to
tell how he got it, stated that it had
been the property of an English tourist
hunter who was killed by a tiger, and
his friends sold the ring to get means to
send the body home. The stone was re
set, and. soon found a purchaser in a
prominent member of the demi-monde,
who not long afterward was murdered
in her room. Among the articles taken
by the murderer was the ring, and the
firm began to wonder how soon it would
turn up. They had not long to wait, for
all their people had by this time learned
about the stone, und were on the look
out for it. After six months it was found
in the showcase of a jeweler in London!
who had bought it from a firm - in
Amsterdam. It was bought by the
Paris agent, and sent back to be started
afresh on its travels. It was purchased
again by a woman of the town, who, six
weeks later, was drawn out of the Seine
with the gem on her finger, and, by a
strange coincidence, it was offered to
the firm that sold it by the police agents,
the court having jurisdiction having
ordered it to be sold. And so it went
from hand to hand, attended with mis
fortune at every change and usually
bringing death to the possessor. La
borers in the Golconda mines used to
say that when a stone was baptized irj
blood when first taken from the eartS
it caused the shedding of blood where
ever it went, and the story of one:
euch ill-omened gem goes far to confin
belief in such a superstition. Jewelei
