WHAT IS RIGHTt
The study of finance is well calcu
lated to cause dissenting opinions
and diametrically opposite conclu
sions, according to which foot the
student gets foremost. For instance,
an exchange makes some estimates
as to the vast amount cf money put
in circulation by parties leaving for
the Clondyke. It estimates that 10,
000 people have already started, and
that each has spent $500. This, it
thinks, has improved the trade of the
whole country, and yet 10,000 peo
ple spending $500 each would put in
circulation only $5,000,000. It does
not seem reasonable to suppose that
this would cause any great rush of
business, since it would mean only
seven cents apiece for the people of
the United States.
On the other hand it is expected
the Clondyke will produce $50600,
000 next year, or about seventy
cents per capita for the people of the
United States. A southern paper
estimates that the saving of a cent a
day by eveiy person in the United
Slates would amount to more than
five times this sum, or about 270,
000,000 in a year, while our esti
mate yesterday shows that the cur
tailing of expenses by every family
in the United States in the sum of
twenty five cents a day, or five cents
each, would amount to, in round
numbers, $1,400,000,000, a stun near
ly equal to all the money in the
United States. One person figures
that the saving of a cent a A&y will
make the nation prosperous; another
that the saving of five times as much
will paralyze business. .One con-
eludes that saving makes prosperity;
the other that squandering makes
prosperity. And there you arc.
WITH A LITTLE SALT.
Mr. P. J. Jennings, according to
the Oregonian, has a small Clondyke
of his own in the Excelsior district,
Douglas county. He has kept the
yield of the mine quiet, because he
had to perfect the title, but now that
this is done, he unbosoms himself,
lie says that he went to work Febru
ary 5th last, with three men and a
hand mortar and working the de
composed quartz and porphyry with
rockers, and that they averaged $300
per day during the month, some
days getting $800 or $900, and out
of pne pan $400.
We really believe Mr. Jennings
has a rriniature Clondyke, or at least
that he cut the cloth for his story
over a Clondyke pattern. It has
many of the sinuosities of a Yukon
tale, and some of the discrepancies
that will creep into such tales.
"Where the Alaska symptoms crop out
is in the statement that notwithstand
ing this big body of ore which paid
nearly $100 a day to the man with
a rocker and a hand mortar, Mr.
Jennings sold a one-fifth interest to
Chicago people for $25,000, an
amount equal, according to the out
put from the rockers, about one day's
run with a five stamp quartz mill.
The story is etrong enough, but un
fortunately the mine is not far
enough away or difficult enough of
access to create any excitement. In
other words the tale ha. not traveled
far enough to get a proper polish.
The dispatches show that a regular
panic prevails in Havana since the
insurgents made their successful at
tack on the suburbs. Citizens who
Lave heretofore been confident of
Spain ultimate success, are fleeing
from the city, virtually confessing
that the cause of Spain is lost, and
the liberty of Cuba only a question
of a short time. It may be possible
that Cubans themselves will settle
the question of Cuban independence
without interference by the United
States. Whether it does or not, it Is
possible that Spain will force a war
with this country, laying the blame
for Cuban success upon us. This
will be done solely for the purpose
of solidifying Spain and preventing
the overthrow of the monarchy.
The Pioneer Fireproof construc
tion plant at Ottawa, Illinois, the
largest of its kind in the world, was
partly destroyed by fire Sunday.
This is one of the sarcasms of cir
cumstances, only equaled by the
burning several years ago of the fac
tory that manufactured the hand gren
ades for extinguishing 'fires, at which
time it was stated more than a mill
ion of the grenades were burned.
Since ProfY Andree sailed away in
his balloonv from northern Norwa3,
about two weeks ago,nothing has been
heard from him, and the chances are
at least even that he has vanished
forever from the knowledge of men.
If the Oregonian and Telegram
would give the country a rest on the
gold standard and Billy Bryan it
would be appreciated. We have the
gold standard, and will continue to
have it indefinitely, and as for Bryan,
why continue to write daily his obit
uary ? ."-
Orltrin of tile Word "Snob."
"While turning- over the leaves of the
eiyhth volume 'of the Sporting- Maga
zine, published in 1790," says a writer
in Notes and Queries, "I have come
upon what I think is a very early in
stance of the worfl 'snob.' The con
text does not indicate, its meaning, but
I apprehend there, is no doubt that we
must interpret it by the shoemaker.
The writer is discoursing of races at
Whiteehurch. He says that 'there was
a very respectable field; and although
neither the duke of Queensbury, Lord
Egremont nor his royal highness the
prince of Wales were present, it be
ing a holiday time, a number of royal
snobs were.' "
Shmllnn Marble.
A newly discovered process for treat
ing marble or other similar stones in
order to give them any colored shade,
veins or spots, consists in leaving these
stones in one or more baths composed
of a solution of alcohol and one or more
colors of aniline or other coloring ma
terials. The coloring materials are
fixed by leaving the colored stones in
a bath of oil or any other fat sub
stance, or by applying upon the stones
layers of the same stuff. The absorp
tion of the organic coloring materials
and of the fat substances by the stone
may be accelerated by heating or boil
ing the bath -Which contains the stuff
to be treated. ...

The True Remedy.
W. M. Repine, editor Tiskilwa, 111.,
"Cheif," says : "We won't keep house
without Dr. King's New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Ex
perimented with many others, but never
got the true remedy until we used Dr.
King's New Discovery. No other rem
edy can take its place in our home, as
in it we have certain and sure cure for
Copghe, Colds, Whooping Cough, etc."
It is idle to experiment with other rem
edies, even if they are urged on vou as
just a9 good as Dr. King's New Discov
ery. They are not as good, because this
remedy has a record of cures and besides
is guaranteed. It never fails to satisfv.
