Tim Illinois legislature is considering a
law to prevent paupers, lunatiesand con
victs from marrying. It is inteiulei! to
thwart Miss Van Zandt in her determina

Natural gnu is on Its way west, boom
ing as it comes. Some old towns in Ind
iana, which consisted mainly of a grave
yard and delinquent taxes, have found
gas, and land has jumped from nothing to
$500 an aero.
Tiik Rosehurg Review is still arguing
the question of state's rights. It may be
news to Fred when we inform him that
John C. Calhoun is dead, and so 1h 1 1am
ilton,and all tho rest of them except Jed'.
Iavls, and the war is over.
Railroad building is very activo in
Arizona and the country is settling up

I tut we want to know what the father of

The Halvation Army iH taking root in
Albany. Portland, Salem and Oregon
City all have "barracks" of the vagabond
outfit, and new recruits are "catching on"
and working the racket for all there iH in
it. Hut some day decency and good or
der will arise up in its might, and the
"Halvation Army" will wilt away like
miper grass, and there will be nothing
left uf it but a bad smell.
A report, which should have been
sent out on the first of April, comeH from
Chicago that the anarchists and social
ists who compose the "International
Working People' Association" contem
plate an uprising in 18r!, when they hope
to overthrow the government and estab
lish themselves in power. In the mean
time they will rely on panics and starva
tion to recruit their forces. When the time
comes for the explosion a great many
armed genuine Americans will be on
hand to witness the ontortuinnicnt.
Tiik Willamette valley is a natural
fruit country, and this is destined to he
the principal business of our farmers.
The only drawback heretofore hafi been
the want of a good market. With the
completion of the Oregon and Califoma
brunch of the Southern Pacific railroud
this objection will be overcome. The peo
ple of this Mtction will then begin to re
alize upon the splendid reputation of the
Willamette valley as a fruit country. It
will pay everybody to take care of their
orchards, and to put out more trees.
1r. Mary Walker sends up a general
petition to H;ople about to die, asking
them to leave some of their wealth in
good hands to be used for the suppression
of the use of tobacco. The einissror of
Morocco is as good a man to take c.harge
of the funds as we know of, and next to
him the doctor would unswer as a terror
tochewersand smokers. The emperor
merely cuts oirthe lips of anybody found
toying with the deadly cigarette. The
doctor would perhaps make it still surer
by sewing up their mouths entirely.
It is said that when Alexander Mitch
ell was a banker in Milwaukee there was
once a run on his hank. On the second
day of the run an old Scotchman entered
the bank all covered with mud, and carry
ing a pair of saddlebags. He could not gain
access to Mr. Mitchell on account of tlm
crowd, but he shouted out to him, hold
ing up the saddlebags; "Alex, moil, 1
heard ve hod a roon on yer bank, and I
bring ye all 1 have, mon $2,000 in gold."
Tho crowd contemplated the old Scotch
man for a moment, and then tegaii to
drop out of the line, and in less than an
hour the run had ceased.
It may not bo out of place to call at
tention to the fact that all the dispatches
in the Statesman are perfectly reliable,
as much so as in any daily paper in the
world. Nearly every day we publish
8ecial8, some of which appear in no
otuor paper ; but we do nut mark them
as such tor the simple reason that till our
dispatches are news, and are not
copied from eastern papers with raised
dates. The expense of our increased tel
egraphic service is justified by the in
creased patronage of the very liberal And
generous public of this section. Tho report
will he added to as time, opportunity and
patronage allow and permit.
Many a truth is spoken in jest. The
remark of the correspondent who, taking
exceptions to the Statesman's article on
the KaWation Army, satirically declares
that "if the Salvation Army would only
apply for a license, it would immediately
become a source of revenue to the city
and remedy all existing defects," suggests
an excellent means of restraining an un
licensed evil. If the Sulvation Army
wore required to tako out a license and
give bonds to keep tho public peace, its
unseemly demonstrations would be kept
within bounds, and manv of its objection
able features removed. The only trouble
would bo to find a namo under which to
license the hybrid outlit.
Senator J. P. Waoeii of the East Ore
gonian wants to test the reasonableness
of freight rateschargod between Portland
and Eastern Oregon, and oilers to give a
satisfactory bond to bear all expenses in
curred in testing the question as to wheth
er such rales as are lining charged can
be maintained under the present law. lie
agrees to pay any person who may bring
him a loail of wheat for shipment, in or
der to make it the foundation for the test,
the full market valuo of the wheat either
at time of shipment or at any time during
the next three months following date of
shipment. It is likely some one will tike
Mr. Wager up on his offer, and if the test
is made, Wager will push it to a thorough
investigation of, and decision on the law.
Tub new general manager of the Union
Pacific Railway, Mr. Potter, will revolu
tionize the policy of that road, lie lias
been the life of the Burlington system,
and it was he who built up its im'mcnse
local business bv filtering and encourag
ing locai industries and agriculture
throughout Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska.
Under the old Dillon management, tho
policy of the Union Pacific was just the
reverse of this. Since Mr. Adams became
president it has pursued a somewhat
more liberal policy, but there was too
much of the old feeling left in the subor
orbinates to gain the confidence or win
the esteem of the public along the line,
who could not soon forgive tho harsh and
arbitrary rule of many yours. Mr.. Pot
ter will change all this, and to accomplish
it sweeping changes may be looked for in
subordinate positions. S. F. Chronicle.
yilKKIt OPINIONS.
Wo notice through the press, a lot of
curious opinions about the working of the
interstate commerce act, some of which
may be. worth a moment's attention. One
authority, quite high no in politics, pays
that the act "need not be particularly in
jurious if the railroads act in a proper
manner." He does not explain what he
means by "acting in a proper mariner."
Kuilrnuds are industrial machines, built,
for the purpose of making money. They
are not sentient beings, governed by mor
al imputes, and endowed with conscien
ces; their tariffs are adjusted so as to
yield the largest possible revenue with
the least friction, and with a regard to
the maintenance of the traffic from which
the revenue is derived. When people
talk about their "acting in a proper man
ner" they seem to imply that the tariffs
are inspired altogether by moral consid
erations of right or wrong, that rates are
put up in obedience to one sentimental
impulse and down in obedience to an
other. On the 'contrary, freight Hchedules
arc dictated to a great extent by the
laws of trade, the demand for and supply
of transportation, the pr-ssnre of compe
tition, and other factors which the rail
road people cannot control. It was not
from choice that the railroad carried steel
rails from Pittsburg to San Francisco last
month for Bixt.y-f.ive cents a hundred, nor
wiih irtrom desire that it demanded three
dollarH and seventy-one cents for carry
ing wool from Man Francisco to Boston.
In both cases the rates made were made
au'uiust the will of the managers and pos
sibly against the interests of the roads.
It may be news that railroad managers
who are admonished to "act in a proer
manner" have not always an option how
they shall act. To live they must get
traffic, and the rates at which they shall
get it deiiend not always on themselves,
hut on a variety of circumstances beyond
their control. TI.ey must meet any rates
made by rival lines. If they charge
rates high enough to check shipments
there will be no traffic, and they will not
make expenses. Thus, if they were ever
so much disposed to "act in a proer
manner," which is assumed in certain
quarters to be tlieir natural tendency,
they would he held back by self interest.
The fourth section of this inter-Btate act
was an attempt of congressmen to regu
late prices ny statute, in disregard ol trie
laws of trade and of the ever changing
conditions of traffic. It lias failed. Had
it pone into effect it would have operated
to the grievous injury of the communities
and of the interests which it was intended
to benefit. Instead of being beneficial to
the country at large it would have built
up a harrier between consumer and pro
ducer; would have increased the price of
living to the former, without doing good
except to a few individuals.
Till E DISMOt'KACV.
That government governs hest which
governs leant. A man has a right to do
as be pleases, so long as he does not in
terfere with the rights of others. These
aro the ln' underlying principles of den
ocracv, and thev will live forever. Con
tinually thine will he those who will want
the state to assume a kind of espionage
over the conduct ot individuals, who will
desire to regulate by law what the people
shall eat and drink and wear; those who
will leach new ideas of government,
founded on absurd theories, prohibition
iHt, anarchists, socialists and all such
hobby rulers, and they will attract some
attention, and their theories will be
tried occasionally, but. their prac
tice will prove their impracticability
and the true idea of democracy will sur
vive them all and every other idea of
government, the "simple majesty of the
people" will exist torever, and all gov
ernment will tend to this principle,
whicU is the only correct one. As there
is no law against the vaponngs of super
ficial theoretical cranks, and a man has a
perfect individual right to think as he
pleases, and to Bay what he thinks, the
siiuie as he has to exercise ins sump
tuury rights, there will be no end to the
genus crank, and lie will be always bob
hinmip to furnish diversion for the dem
ocratic minds of a democratic people. He
will do no harm except when he goes off
on a tangent like the Chicago bomb-
throwers, and then the judicious use of a
small outlay for hemp will serve todamp-
en his ardor for a period. It is folly to
huve any fears for the permanency of any
un-democratic theories. It we give them
plenty of rope they will wind themselves
up and choke to death, and they will rest
forever in the potter's held ot iorgetlul
ness. Let us all he democratic ; not dem
ocrats, for the rank and lile of the party
that goes by that name are anything but
democratic.

THE FRENCH CltGWN JEWELS.
The sale of the crown jewels of France
at public auction will be on the 12th of the
present month. The history of these jew
els is full of incident and melodramatic
detail. This history dates from June 15,
loll!), and had their sale been delayed one
month and three days it would have en
compassed three hundred and fifty-seven
years to a day. Repeatedly stolen,
pawned reputedly to raise funds for na
tional defense ; taken by royal fugitives
in their flights from the country to places
of temporary safety ; glittering now upon
the breast of the mistress of Henry Sec
ond, and again gleaming with fatal lustre
upon the bosom of Marie Antoinette ;
gracing the hilt of the great Napoleon's
sword at the event of his coronation and
locked in secret vaults to escape the cun
ning of thieves, they at length appear in
the market place labeled "for sale," silent
emblems of a dead monarchy that through
three centuries of vicissitude wore, and
cherished, and to the best of their ability
protected them. Some two weeks ago
the imperial crown of gold was melted at
the mint of the republic, together with
two ceremonial swords, the sword of the
Dauphin and the sword of Louis XVIII.
There remains to be sold a quantity of
riibie8,emerald8,saphhireBandturquoises ;
51,403 brilliants, weighing !I010 carats;
21.119 roses, weighing 471 carats, and
2ti'J3 pearls, weighing 7034 carats. It is
expected that this sale will tiring more
than $1,000,000, and the chief buyers will
be necessarily the dealers, who will buy
the important pieces, which they will
unmount, for two reasons : In the first
place, in order to retail the stones, and in
the second place, because the existing
mounts are old fashioned. Significant of
the mutation of national, as well as of in
dividual fortunes through the stormy de
cades of three and a half centuries, these
jewels will now part company and their
long and eventful history will end with
tho auction that scatters them.
JiOW AND WHERE TO D1UNK.
Let. a father do all his drinking before
his own family, and he will not long drink
to excess.
Let the boys drink all that they drink at
home, before their father, mot her, and sis
ters, and they will rarely becomedrunk's.
Let the mothers, wives and daughter's
of this land, instead of the saloon keeper,
pour out the liquor that the husband, fa
thers and sons drink, and the ghastly
procession of drunkards on tlieir way to
ruin and death will quickly be cut off
from its recruits.
Let all the liquor drank in Des Moines
and Iowa be drunk in the homes or in de
cent society, or before those whom the
drinker loves and respects the most, and
when you have done that you have settled
the drink question for the city ami state.

About twenty yeari ago I discovered a Uttla
sore on my check, and the docton pronounced
It cancer. I have tried a number of physicians,
bnt without receiving any permanent benefit.
Among the number were one or two specialists.
The medicine they applied was like Are to the
oore, causing intense pain. I saw a statement
In the paper telling what S. S. S. had done for
others similarly afflicted. I procureLome at
once. Before I had nsed the second bottle the
neighbors could notice that my cancer was
healing up. My general health had been bad
for two or three years I had a hacking cough
and spit blood continually. I had a severe
pain In my breast. After taking six bottles of
S. S. S. my cough left me and I grew stouter
than I hod been for several years. My cancer
has healed over all but a little spot about the
size of a half dime, and It Is rapidly disappear
ing. I would advise every one with cancer to
give S. S. 8. a fair trial.
