RETALIATION.
The Salt Luke Tribune thinks that if
the old world will Dot assist to putiilrer
where it belongs, good and lawful money,
on the presumption that tbe oan do with
out us, the ougLt to be taught a lessoo.
That paper says in part in a a lengthy
editorial on the subject of "The lilind
neBS and Greed of Capital ":
"If the ooDferenoe does nothing, then
our own people should. It may uot be
Erudent to say now what should be done,
ut certainly the indications point to
Ibe faot that our government ought to
re-oonrpoe tbe Pau-Atnerit-an congress
and ought to make a close alliance witu
II the States of Spanish-America, where
by the treasures of our oouutry can be
interchanged, and with it the trade; that
is, a close alliance with all nations of
our own continent where our bust trade
in tbe future must be looked for. At the
same time tbe agreement should place a
tax on every ounce of silver from beyond
the sea. In short, tbe plan, it seems to
us, ought to be to give Europe indirect
notice that we do not need her in any
way; that she needs 09 iuflnitely more
than we do her, and if she wants our
bread and cotton she mav nnv her or.1.1
for them, and when we have to pay there
we uuu ouy sue goiu to pay with if neoes

is not rsxed to death to tupportamighty

on an overwhelming national debt. The

used up Id tbe armies or sb fast as pos

OPEN THE RIVER.
Tbe oonviot labor Question will hnvn
to be decided by the nnt legislature
Ihere are many employments to whioh
these men oould be out snd not interfere
. with honest free labor, and one of tbe
best suggestions we have seen is to put
tbem out to make good roads. But
there is snother important enterprise
which should be undertaken bv the lea
Mature, snd that is, the building of the
portage road from Celilo to The Dalles
Tbe labor of these convicts oould bi
utilized in building this road, and tbe
state would only be out the material
This road is a state necessity, and the
pepie or mat seotion cannot delay the
matter until the alow process of congres
siunal appropriations will irive them re
lief. They have prayed for doliverance
long enough, and they Rill eipeot the
next legislature to nut some tnncihl
project in operation by whioh they may
seoure an open river. The state can fur
nish tbe labor, and it will be but a small
expense for tbe rolling stock and other
material. Dispatoh.
Vest soon all eyes will be turned
toward the legislature, fur some wise
legislation is expected this winter, in-ao-much
as it is badly needed. One of the
laws that ories loudly and yet more
loudly for change from year to year is
that relating to uosessment aud taxation
Under the present system the property
more and mote of it esonpes taxation
every year, while in the different ooun
ties the indebtness (so claimed) is grow
ing alaimingly. Some believe spreoiuot
assessor system should be established
and that there should be no exemption
for indebtness. There will be an act
proposed exempting homesteads from
exeoution. And then there will be an
set tor an appropriation for a dshway at
Oregon City, and one for the completion
of the state house extending it on the
north and south ends according to the
originnl plans, which would add much to
tbe beauty and symmetry of the build
ing. And then there will be an effort
made to establish a jute bag faotory at
the state penitentiary. It would require
an appropriation of $70,000 to equip aud
put in operation such a faotory as is
proposed, but snob an institution would
save tens of thousands of dollars an
nually to the farmers of the state ou
grain sacks. There is a general feeling
throughout the state and among the
members favorable to the schema and
from conversation with members of the
legislature tbe opinion is formed that
tbe proposed bill will become a law.

A BOOT RAILROAD LANDS.
Those Settlers Not Actually Resitting on Same
Not Alluwed Kxteuslou of Time.
A short time ago this office wrote the
La Qraude land office in regard to
whom extension of time is allowed iu
the matter of the purchase of railroad
lauds. From a letter written by W. M.
Stone, acting commissioner ot the U. S.
laud office, to a settler neur Shelby, aud
published in these columns, it was un
derstood that the extension of time was
granted, not only to those residing upon,
but having improvements on railroad
land. It was, perhaps, an error in the
use of the word "or" instead of "and ',
ss tbe copy ot the letter below, from
the general land office, gives a different
version ot tbe act. Wepubliah herewith
tbe answer from our epistle, as well as a

withiu whioh time persons actually re

might preseut their claims to, to three

This letter ameudment relates only to

HAS NO EQUAL.
There is no suob literary work in tbe
English language, or any other language,
equal to the famous Eucyclopedia Brit
annica. It is no mere figure of speech, no
mere rhetorical flourish to say of it that
it is a library of itself, for that is preoiss
ly what it was intended to be, nothing
more, nothing less. I (comprises 28 large
volumes, averaging 860 double-column
pages each; it bas 671 maps, 237 ot tbem
colored ; it contains 25,000 topios, alpha
betically arranged; and it is embellished
by over 9,000 illustrations, plates and
diagrams. Of course, all people of any
intelligence whatever, know something
in a general way of tbe excellence of this
world renowned work, but few even
among those who are aboye the average
in point of knowledge and understand
ing realize tbe scope, merits, and immen
sity of this "king of encyclopedias". How
many, for instauoe, among even profes
sional people, are aware that this incom
parable work embodies the best tbonght
of over 1,200 of the leading scholars
historians, professors, doctors, inventors,
etc., of the world, men of mark and of
eminence, who have won the blue ribbon
of distinction in their respective spheres?
But few even among scholars are aware
that it bas cost about $3,000,000 to bring
it to its present standard of completeness
and perfection. As a matter nf course,
it contains all manner of standard sensl
ble useful knowledge. Due regard has
been bad to the relative value of sub
jects, important subjeots being treated
at length, unimportant ones briefly. This
may be said perhaps of most so called
cyclopedias, but in the very nature of
things, no other work bears evidence of
this imp tant detail of treatment hav
ing been so oousoieutiously done. .
Amoi g the 25,0110 topics above alluded
to, what is the probability of even a
well-read man naming a subjeot that
could by any reasonable play of fanoy
be called "important" that will not be
found in its pages? It contains a fall,
able, and impartial history of every na
tion; it has a oompreheusihle biograph
ical sketch of every illustrious man,
whether sake, atatesman, conqueror, ex
plorer, poet, musician, sotilptor or re
former; it embodies very excellent treat
ises ou all scientific subjeots; it is in short
what it hat been aptly culled, tbe su
preme court of literature.
Appletou's New American CyolopeJin,
usually considered us rating next to tbe
Britsnnioa, comprises 10 volumes, con
tains CO million ems, printer's measure
ment, aud oosts $'J8. The Britnuuioa
comprises 28 volumes, 140 million ems,
and costs at publisher's regular rates'
from $125 to over $2J0. Prices like these
are explanation euongh uf the faot that
few families have been able hitherto to
afford the luxury of suoh a work of ref
erence, confessedly valuable and indie
peusible as it is. But tbe Oregouian
edition is offered to tbe publio at Ibe
surprisingly low rates ot $19, $03, $77
aud $84 per set, according to biuding,
aud these amoumts mny be paid in easy
installments.

A Fine Ooricir. The Heppuer Water
k Light Co. are putting in the finest
boiler and engine between Salt Lake City

Corliss make, and was on exhibition at
tbe last Portland Exposition. It is a
veritable beauty. But tbe boiler is a
"stunner",, being one ot Abendrotb &
Root MI 'g (Jo. water-tube, safety ktud.
To tbe eyes of one not used to that kind
of a boiler, it looks m ire like beating
apparatus thin anything else. It is the
best boiler made these days, aod this
is tbe only one of the kind in use be
tween Portland and Silt Lake. It cost
several thousand dollars more than a
"stock" boiler ot tbe old fashioned make.
Gates and bis "high water company"

getting a big trade. Tbe Gazette is firm
in tbe belief that printer's ink is tbe
thing for tbe business man, and Sbaw &

The Farmers snd Politics.
The prosperity of a farmer to-day de
pends more on the methods he employs
than on goveinmentsl rule. Take seeds
for an example: Farmers who are
alive to their own iuterests in other
things are careless in buying seeds.
Tbey seem to think a seed is a seed and
tbere it ends It there was more knowl
edge about seeds aud greater care exer
cised in their selection, tbere would be
richer crops and better rwlnrua.
Realiztug this, D M. Ferry 3t Co., tbe
famons seed firm of Detroit Mien., have
embodied iu their Illustrated Annual tor
1893, much valuable information about
seeds and their selection. It contains
ths knowledge gleaned from many
years practical experience in tbe seed
business, and tbe newest and best things
about gardens aud gardening. Such a
book issued by a firm of unquestioned
reliability is of the bighesi value In
every one who plants a seed. Although
the oost of printinn and embellishing it
with beautiful illifetrationa has been
gnat, it is sent free to any one making
application to ths above firm.

One reason why Scott's Emulsion of Pure Nor
wegian Cod Liver Oil and Ilypophosphites of Lime
and Soda has had such a large sale is because it is
"Almost as palatable as milk;" but the best reason is
that its curative properties are unequalled. It cures
the cough, supplies the waste of tissues, produces
flesh and builds up the entire system.
Ecott's Emulsion euros Coughs,
Colds, Consumption, Scrofula,
and all Anaomio and Wasting
Diseases. Provonts wasting in
