The Populists in Oregon have re fused to enter into an unholy alliance with the Democratic party, and are going to paddle their own barque on the ruffled sea of politics. This will make things all the more inter esting next June, although there is no doubt but what the contest will te sufficiently heated not to allow the interest to flag. Just why the Populists have re fused to train with the Pennoyer . branch of the Democraticjparty we Tail to understand. Their principles seem to be identically the same. Cheap money and lots of it, lucra tive offices and plenty of them appear to be the ODly war cry which meets with unqualified approval in the ad herents both of the consistent Popu listic and Pennoyer-Davis parties. We are afraid the Populists are tak ing on a show of virtue that is hardly due them. It has not been noticed that Populists when they .get into power act with much more morality than do the unpretentious gentlemen of the older organizations. Popu ulists like to ride to the legislature without tlie payment of the usual fare, and the pass, which is an un righteous document in the hands of another person, looks becoming in their own. The leaders of the " Populists will have to issue another manifesto ex plaining wherein their superiority . exists, before the fair-minded public will be sure that they did right in deserting poor Pennoyer.. The sha dows are gathering fast about that rare and saintly individual. His former friends, the Populists, refuse ' to associate with him, and his com- missioners and chief of police have fallen into habits that must bring sorrow to his heart. It is stated that more eastern capi tal is headed towards Oregon City for investment. This is because Ore gon City Is known the country over for its manufacturing ''advantages, and yet they are not one whit greater than can be obtained at The Dalles. If we could makerjone start in this direction and give our peculiar qual ifications as a manufacturing center a chance to be known, capital would soon be directed to The Dalles. It is a strange, strange thing that satis factorily as our growth has been in other respects, we have continually neglected perhaps the most import ant foundation for future prosperity. Every agitation of this subject helps it along, and the more talk and attention given it, the more likely is something tangible to result. The successful launching of the new lightship at Portland Saturday shows that the PaciGc Northwest does noi have to send to the East or elsewhere for finished products. Everything that can be bought at home should be done, whether it be be lightships or butter and eggs. La Grande has guaranteed a sub sidy of $80,000 for the establishment of a beet sugar industry at that place. Such enterprise is what makes a town grow, and if the deal has been made with responsible and honest parties, the investment will be a paying one for La Grande citizens. Nancy Allison McKinley is the highest type of American woman hood, and the nation is reverent at her death bed, because it recognizes what potent influences for good such a woman as Mrs. Mckinley possesses. PETTY ECONOMY. The Vaeleaaneaa of Storing Up House bold Odda and Ends. - It requires an exceptionally wise, ju dicious person to know where to econ omize and where to spend. It is fre quently the way of thrift to spend with a lavish hand because the return justi fies the expenditure.' The woman who laboriously darns a gleg-ham apron when the can make a new one in half the time and when the material costs less than ten cents is decidedly wasting her efforts or estimating1 her time at the same standard os the work of the Chinese coolie. The mended apron will not wear one-quarter as long as a new one, and it had better be devoted) to dust cloths cr to some of the purposes of cleaning where an old rag i3 required. The picking up of pins is certainly a doabtful economy. No one can tell what infection may be conveyed in a pin, which is quite likely to be rusty. A pin is certainly worth, less than the time taken to pick it up. Where it is in the house' "or in a place where it may become a small instrument of torture, it is wise for humanity's sake to pick it up, but not for the sake of its value. Almost all of us have some pet econ omy. Some people will hoard old dresses of wool which they have no time to clean, -and which would not be fit for wear if they were cleaned. The result of this hoarding is an in teresting collection of moths, which in vade the house and destroy much furni ture and .valuable clothing, together with, the worthless. It would be diffi cult, however, to convince the person who was devoted to such economy that it was in fact an extravagant whim that she was gratifying. The hoarding of newspapers may be classed among the same extravagant fancies. The newspaper is the thing of an hour, and is succeeded in a day by another. While there is frequently val uable reading matter for a scrapbook in them, the entire papers take up too much room to be kept by the ordinary rezCer for anything but waste paper. They merely collect dust. Of all absurd things that may be hoarded the saving of fruit and vegeta ble cans, except to paint and use for flower-rots, is the most absurd. An old tin can is usually a menace to the health. It is not fit to cook in, though it is sometimes employed for that pur pose, nor is it fit to keep food in after the inner surface is exposed to the air. It is never fit' to be used a second time fcr canning. After opening a can it contents should be poured out at once into an earthen dish, and never left to stand in the opened tan. It is a fool hardy practice to leave such tin cans out doers, because they are liable to rust, and a cut from a rusty piece of tin is the common cause of that dreaded disease, lockjaw. There is the same dang-er in using unpain ted tin cans for keeping plants. Their sharp rusty edges may cut the hands when the cans are moved. A hundred such petty economies are indulged in by thoughtless women, who imagine that thrift can come from such foolish hoarding. N. Y. Tribune. Thousands are Trying It. In order to prove, the great merit of Ely's Creanl Balm, the most effective cure for Catarrh and Cold iu Head, we have pre pared a generous trial size for 10 cents. Get it of your druggist or send 10 cents to ELY BROS., 50 Warren St., N. Y. City. I suffered from catarrh of the worst kind ever since a boy, and I never hoped for care, but Ely's Cream Balm seems to do even that. Many acquaintances have used it with excellent results.
