Ho was reported to bo worth about $75,- 000 when ho was elected Prcsidont and ho has increased that amount unco his term of office- considerably by invest ments and frugality. A San Francisco Chinaman tramblod and lost all his money as woll as jowclry and fcolinc despondent took n pistol and shot n holo in tho palm of his hand. He said, "Sum, no mora gamma witu mat hand," when asked what ho had done. Tho bill forfeiting unearned lands of tho Northern Paciflo railroad company, as pasted by tho Sonato, declares for feited so much oi lands granted that company as nro co-terminus with Hint part oi its main lino which extends from Wallula Junction to Portland, and that pnrt of tho Cascade branch .which shall not bo completed at tno dato of the passage of this bill, and makes tho right of way in territories snbjcct to taxation.

Tho king was much loved by his peoplo and somo anxioty was fell that tho populaco would attempt to. re instate him. OREQ0N PROSPECTS. Nowspapors all unite to claim that wo aro on tho ovo of hotter times nnu moro assured prosperity. Tho trado of Port land is an indication of such improve ment nnd all over tho Paciflo Northwest wo eoo nnd hoar of matters returning to the old-timo prosperity. Wo havo learn ed n lesson that docs not coino with regu larity but has to bo learned woll boforo nnj country or community can bo called prosperous. Wo enjoyed, for ninny yoars, bettor times and moro satisfactory pros' pority than fell to any State in tho Union. Tho tcrriblo collapso of 1883 left us all fioorod and, as if tho breaking down of Villard j schemes was not enough to create bad times thoro camo nlso tho fall in wheat and wool and tho general dcclino of products of tho soil that wo havo experienced. Tho lesson of economy and practical management has been well loarnad by farmers an a class nnd thoy havo met tho sltuntion far better than would havo been expected. Now wo havo to go on in tho routino of industry and economy und mako hasto slowly to becoino rich by tho fruits of farm labor. There ia not much hope that our farmers cap lccomo rich in tho full nccoptanco of tho term, but they can acquire enough of worldly goods to mako lifo worth tho living nud wo hopo that Oregon will sustain its well earned roputatlon as a land of good homes and good living. Tho farmor, after all that can bo said, makes tho wealth of tho nation and his prosperity is tho "half-bushol" in which nil tho wealth of tho world is measured. Laugh and Grow Fat. If such isyour "desire bo suro to attend the famous Balrd Minstrels. They will appear in Salem on Wednesday, Juno 23d. This company visited our city ono year ago and gave us a good show.
