Within the past week, in two of these brutal exhi bitions one each of the principals has been killed, and the others have leen jailed on charge of mur der.

It takes two day for the capsule to get in working ort'.er, and by t hat time the bilk is out of the country but your oil still diminishes." The only safe way to treat the traveling fraternity of the kind referred to is to shut the door in their faces. Home merchants carry all the improvements in oil and lamps. j)eal with them.

The ;hangc3 made in the old ap portionment are not great. The total population was divided by the total vote, giving a ratio of 4 'j. Then the vote of each county was multiplied by 4'4, and upon the liguris so obtained the apportion ment was n ade. Multnomah county gains a jo;nt senator with Clackamas, while Marion loses one representative, and Linn loses a senator. Lake and Klamath are the only counties that have to be joined together to get one representative. All the other counties get at least oue.and there are also joint representa tives for Coos and Curry and Was co and Sherman counties. The counties of Jackson, Marion ami W.i-diingt jii e-ich lose a represen tative, and Multnomah, I'liion and Grant each gain one.

Newpaper recipes are not always sure in their pretentions, but the following for a wash to kill insects on fruit trees bears tee impress of being worth trying: "I take a pound of sulphur, a pcund of con centrated lye or caustic soda, and a gallon and a half water, and I IhmI these together for quite a long time, an hour or two. then I add! a ha f a gallon of the commonest fish oil 1 can get instead of whale oil, and I bod that until it is con verted into a soap: it takes some tiuu to do that, and while in the kettle, just as soon as it is convert ed into s nip, I add a hall a gallon of coal oil while it is hot, ami stir it up so that it mixes thoroughly, and then put twenty-five gallons of water ami gradually beat it up until it becomes a homogeneous mass it makes a milky prepara tion but it remains tnoroughly mixfd without any trouble.

The following from the Scientfic American, is something that ought to be pasted up in a conspicuous place in every household: "Al the lirst indication of diphtheria in the throat of a ch'Id, make the mom close. Then lake a tin cup and prur in a quantity of tar and turpentine equal parts. Then hold the cup over the fire, so as to fill the room with the fumes. The patient on inhaling the fumes, will cough, spite out the membraneous mutter, and diphlhteria will pass off. '."he fumes of tar and turpen tine loosen the matter in the threat and thus affords the relict that has haill.-d the skill of physicians." One !Vr-k .More.

Wa.lac$ & Co, THE MORNING HERALD; SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1891 ABOUT NEWSPAPER 'WOBK. A Kotel Writer Compares the Methods of the Eastern and Westers Press. Special Corrcspomlcnce, Copj righted. 1 Portland, Feb. 10, A journal ist, my eon, is a college graduate, who has been employed on a news paper for a w eek or so and who has been assigned to chronicle the doings of the police courts, A newspaper man is one who for many long and weary years has has been Uelving night after night writing editorials and otherwise creating or directing public opin ion. That is the difference." Such was the definition given of newspaper workers, by the late Audabru Davis, who a few years ago was one of the best known of the forcible newspaper writers of the East. Between the newspaper men of the East and West there is to be noticed a vast difference. This ditlerence, however, is not so great between the actual workers of the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, but in that great country that lie between the two the trained joui nalist blossoms forth in almost enolesa variety. He is an omni present cus?, who, on numerous occasions, makes hir prete ces known ami his influence felt in a way that no "professional" ever wuild stoop to, and at the time glories in his cutences and what his companions declare is promise of a great and brilliant f.ilure. Oft times if he received his just deserts he would be wearing a striped suit and pegging away at shoes in Fome institution which is supported by the state. A casual glance at the columns of the great dailies of the two i-oasts by the uninitiated does not show much apparent difference, but to the experienced eye there is a ditrerence that forcibly pre sents itself. The style of prepar ing the articles for the printer, the use or exclusion of certain words bespeak of the training or school in which the writer has been I red, and often without real izing tne men fall into a s'yle exclusively their own, and in a shot t time thei: individuality be comes so marked that the article written by this individual and that can be readily picked out, even by the inexperienced reader. This individuality is more discernable on the west coast than on the east coast. At one time it was gener ally supposed that Ihe best news paper men in the country made their homes in the (ity of New York. Long since, however, has that fallacy hem exploded. Now it is admitted in the East that a large nnjoriiy of the more brilliant writers have gone to the West and now their handiwork is to be seen on every hand. The reason for this is obvious. In the West, individuality of thought and inde pendence in putting those thoughts on paper are encouraged. The writer is allowed more latitude than in the offices of the East, where the editor or the man whose name appears at the head of the editorial column is the only one who is allowed to have an idea or to suggest a thit g that to his mind would be a good thing for his pa per. In the West it is different, and a bright idea or a happy thought is duly appreciated, not only by the editor but often by the business oflice, and as a result the man who steps out of the beaten track and uses his brains in the way tne Creator intended that it should be useil is the one who nine times out of ten receives the highest salary and whose services are the most in demand. The great difference between newspaper workers can be morj readily noticed by a comparison of the paper of two extremes with those of the middle country, The Jailies of the states of Michigan and Minnesota are fair bamples of w hat a generally bad man can do when allowed to write just what he pleases and to indiscriminately roast his enemies. In .Minnesota is this especially noticeable, and the write: who can be the most abusive is looked upon as the most valuable member ot the stall". This is due to two causes, 1st, because the editors have never had any decent training themselves, and 5d, because it is the home of the "trained journalist'' who is fully equipped to teach the world just what is necessary to be done in order to attain universal happiness and the world must differ with them unless the world wants to ncoive a good rjasting at the hands of the scrihe. The Minne sota journalist is not in his ele ment unless he is getting some one in trouble, and if he cannot find anyone else, rat her than loose an opportunity he gets himself into trouble, and then the people who have felt thrusts of bis fen have a slight chance to get even with him, and it is seldom that he can go into a court and give testimony liefore a jury and have them believe him, for the people have become so accustomed to his misstatements that they fall into t'ie belief that he cannot tell the truth even when under oath. This is the reason so many lihel suits are instituted in those states, and it also explains the reason why so many of them are successful, and the pap3rs are compelled to figure in their annual expenses so much for profit and loss, the profit and loss being the amount of the verdicts obtained tl em during the year by irate citizens who have had their feelings injured and their peace of mind d sturbed by the irresponsible and enthusiastic "tiained journalist." One of these men was employed on a certain newspaper in the Sound country. The city editor, who was inveigled into giving him a job, has never forgiyen himself for being buncoed into it by such a novice, but he tells the storv him self: "I sent that fellow out to do the harbor front," said the city editor, ' to hear him talk one would be led to suppose that he was a second Cummings and as good men were mighty scarce lust then I con gratulated myself on the acquisi tion of an available man to our staff, especially as the opposition paper was paying more than I could afford. I believe that had he demanded more money than the oflice would allow me to pay bira, 1 would have went down into my own pocket and dug up the balance rather than to have lost the opportunity of hiring him. He knew all about how to do the assignment I gave him, and when one of the boys who had been on that beat oirered to give him some pointers about the vrork, his manner was so chilly that the old timer felt like giving him a smack in the mouth, and now I wonder that he didn't do it. The first day he came back with an everlasting lot ol three-masted schooners. He bad more three-masted schooners in the harbor than had ever enter ed the Sound since it was dis covered, and he wp.s sure he was right. In looking over his copy I found that he bad one loaded with coal that came from a town way up on top of the Cascades. That was too much, and when he intimated that 1 d d net km w f nough to cjine in outof the wet, I gently escorted him to the dor and deposited him on the sidewalk. Our paper did not announce the arrival of any three-masted Schooner from the mountains that day." Among the writers of the Wei-t who can more than hold their own with those of the East, and who by their individuality have made their names familiar to every edi torial room on the coast, ami whose articles have been appre ciated by millions of readers, are the lion. Harvey Scott, Ambrose Bierce, of the San Francisco Ex aminer, Ned ( lough, of the Oak land Times, Frank Pixley, of the Argonant. Joe. Lynch, of the l.os Angelos Herald, Jack Fgan, of the Seattle Telegraph, Neb Townsend, Tom Flynn, Arthur McEwen, Sam Davis, Lucius Bigelow, Vivian and Hart, of the Oregonian, F. A. Carle. J. B. Nelson, of the P. I , Col. Will Visncher, "Rabelais." and many others of equal ability. Such men are a credit to the West and by their work they are com pelling the East to recognize the force, ability and aggressiveness of the Western Press. Fkank II. Jones, Stafl'Seattle "Telegraph."
