The employees of the Oregon City

It is safe to predict the early resump

The CJold Medal.
Oregon City got away with the gold
medal for the finest display of Alden
dried fruit, much against the wishes of
several coin pot ing companies. That
the display was tho best, we presume
none who saw it will deny. That it
was tho most artistically arranged,
thero can be no question, and that
Clackamas county can equal, if not
riuriiass, any county in tiie State in
fruit, has been a long conceded point.
Then there is no good reason why the
medal should not have been awarded
to the Oregon City Company, lint had
any of our neighbors been successful,
, we should not have bad any disposi
tion to com plain. We believe that the
people care but little for localities, and
we see no reason for a display of any
jealousy in this matter. Ihit it seems
that some, persons regard it as ire
fiiimptioiis on the part of Oregon City
to even offer to compete, and w hen tho
medal was awarded, their disgust knew
no limit; and we have seen several
newspaper llings which an; no credit
to their authors. ThoOregon City com
pany take a pride in this matter, ami
no line will question their right to the
premium. M rs. C. McCue, Mrs. Pyle,
Sirs. M dine and others, deserve spe
cial credit, as well as Mr. Pyle, tho Su
perintendent, for the taste and judg
ment displayed in arranging the "fruit,
and while the report is being circulated
that the fruit was borrowed from Cali
fornia for the occasion, for the purpose
of injuring the Oregon City company,
we can assure t hem that such was not
the fact. Tuc Company have a thou
sand cases of just such as was exhibit
ed ready for market, and they are . ycr
riwly to enter into honorable and fair
cuiuj'ctition with otht-r factories. Peg

A correspondent from Sn 1 v writes:
"Ilisniy duty to chronicle s sad ci.
cutnstaiice which has happened in our
mid; , nartakinir m its lcit'.ire some-
what of the barbaric institutions of
Inn.; am. It is in bri-'f as follows: To
the wife of G Vi , a short tim;
sinee, was born a child, through care
l'ss accident at seven months, 'brought
into this world la-fore its time,' it nev
ertheless lived, but required the most
tender care and constant attendenoe.
On S.iturday the child took sick and no
hopes were 'entertained for its recovery,
lint notwithstanding its critical condi
tion, friends and relatives all partici
pated in a dance that eveninz, next
door; and there, while the mail dancers
urged to an I fro to the wild music,
the spirit of the little unfortunate took
its flight, leaving nothing but a lifeless
corpse as a reminder of the wicked
ness and want of respect to those whose
duty it was, at least to hive done what
was in tlieir power, to save it. Did the
da-ice stop niter that? No. For two
long hours they still kept up the un
ceasing tread, and not till alter mid
night did the last of the littU child's
relations leave the ball room.

On Thursday a telegram was received
by one of the stockholders of the Ore

effect that this city had been awarded
the gold medal, aiid in all probability
would also receive a special premium
for the surpassing excellence of its dis

Chicago, Oct. 1G. A Washington
special says the first business trans
acted by the President upou his ar

Then the Mississippi troubles were
discussed. Attorney General Pier
pont relieved the mind of the admin
istration by informing its head that
all advices received from that State
re2resented peace and order prevail
ing, with the prospect that no fur
ther trouble was anticipated.
Then followed a discussion with
reference to the successor of Secreta
ry Delano. This continued up to
the hour of adjournment, some time
after two o'clock. Attorney General
ment that no successor has been de- j
termined upon nor would thero be j
until next week, lho impression is j
that tho successor has been decided j
upon so far as the cabinet is concern
ed that is, that the place has been
tendered to somebody, and he has
not yet had time to reply or is hold
ing ii, under advisement. There is a
well-grounded rumor that ex-Senator
Chandler is the coining man. He is
here to-night closeted with Assistant
Secretary Cowan. To add to the
significance of this is the fact that he
arrived here with the President this
morning. It is held by those who
incline to the belief that Chandler is
the man, that he is a lirst-class polit
ical manager, and the one who, witli
the prestige of a cabinet position to
assist him, will prove of incalculable
benefit to the party with which he
is affiliated. Others hold to the con
clusion that Judge Alfonso Taft, of
Ohio, can have the vacant place if
lie desires.
Secretary Bristow is of tho opinion
that he can now, at an early day
make an arrangement for the success
ful placing of the 8300,000,000 4
per cent, bonds. He construes the
result in Ohio as sure to give increas
ed confidence to United States secu
rities in Europe. Had the policy of
inflation been indorsed in Ohio by
a respectable majority, he was appre
hensive that a difficulty jnight have
ensued in negotiating the loan, even
if he could at the present time place
it all. The comments of the foreign
proas, reported by cable, seem to
bear out his conclusions in this re
spect. Washinotox, O't. 1G. Ex-Senator
Pease'had a long interview to-day

would be held and peace maintained

The C;reat Anti-I'eriotlic.
The certainty and promptitude with
which Hosteller's Stomach Hitters con
quer the most obstinate cases of mala
rial disease, and the complete protec
tion which they afford the S3'.stem
against the miasmatic poison which im
pregnates the air of low-lying, marshy
localities, stamp them as the foremost
of American antiperiodics. Wherever
on this continent fever and ague is a
regular visitant in the bottom lands
of the South, the new clearings ami
mining districts of t he West, and in all
localities in the K astern and Middle
States where malaria .prevails, the Bit
ters are recognized as the only true sje
cillc for the disease, and Its most relia
ble preventive. They are, moreover, a
safe anil agreeable as well as a certain
remedy, and on this account are im
measurably superior to the preparations
of quinine, arsenic, bismuth, and other
mineral poisons mistakenly adminis
tered as curatives for maladies caused
by miasma, and which if persisted in
work irreparable injury to the consti
tution. . .
Unfortunately, fever and ague, and
the other febrile complaints generated
by miasma, are not theonly evils which
result from it. A great variety of dis
orders are su peri tiduced by the irrita
tion which it causes. Among these are
neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, periodi
cal headache, palpitation, painful allcc
tions of the spleen, and various de
rangements ot the stomach. When
traceable to malaria, the above affec
tions are apt to assume, like the disease
which originated them, an intermittent
type; that is to say, they recur at regu
lar intervals, llostetter's bitters, how
ever, obviates them all, by banishing
the miasmatic virus from the system.
