Hw it May bo ImproTcd.
It is with regret wo notice that
our journalistic friends of the
interior have lost their several
tempers in discussing the present j
senatorial contest. When the
gentleman who edits the Albany
Herald refers to the gentleman
wlio edits the Oregonian as a
"liar," and a "skunk," and 11 "dirty
dog," though it make the vulgar
laugh, yet it causes the judicious
to grieve. The simple fact of a
difference of opinion need not
result in such unseemly use of op
probrious names. However hot
a political fight may he," it is more
satisfactory to all, when it is over,
to be able to meet and shake hands
and be as men and not as snarling
brutes. And then, how trifling
the whole thing is, anyhow! There
are so few things in life worth
"getting mad" about that we are
surprised at the amount of mis
placed energy displayed by such
perverlers of their opportunities
as the men who make their papers
a common sewer for all manner of
nastiness.
But it is not confined to Ore
gon; our Missouri friends -are also
at times, taken that way. Ilere is
a specimen of verbal dysentery,
which we furnish for our con
temporaries to put away for refer
ence: - The Marble Hill (Mo.) Re
flector, in speaking of a rival,
says to the unfortunate victim of
maledictien:
"The ignorant, contemptible,
mean, sneaking, cowardly, self
important, low-flung, dirty, out
landish, backbiting, self-styled
'politician,' dead beat, whisky
bloat, backwoods bummer, log
cabin child of misfortune, beer in
flated, big headed, soft skulled.
over-rated swamp angel who claims
to edit the swamp paper thinks
the editor of the Keflector terribly
ignorant. Let him look at the
twenty-seven mistakes in his last
issue; let him remember the
'blantant' in tho issue before, and
let him not forget that he used
ardorous for 'arduous' in a lead
ing local in his last issue of Aug
24. Ob, you dirty whelp, you poor
crawling, creeping viper; you
dirty scum of the dirty, stinking,
stagnated swamp; you mean, big
jawed, slab sided, knock kneed,
bow legged, bandered shanked
pup; lost, as yon are, to honest',
to principle, to justice, to common
decency, do you imagine you can
rule God's country the hills? Go
back into tho cesspool from which
you have crawled and there re
main. Don't come out of your den
to abuse respectable people. Go
to school, Kelly, and you may
learn something yet."
Kelley's reply is awaited with in
terest. Now, this is an improvement on
some of the slush that has been
dished up duting the last month,
and may be used by some of our
esteemed confreres as a demolisher
when the spirit of uncleanliness
again assumes control of the edi
torial mind.
The moralists of Great Britain
would doubtless rejnird it as a
good joke if the emperor of China
should request Queen Victoria's
aid in the suppression of the opium
traffic, as it is reported that he
will. The English government
forced opium upon China at the
cannon's mouth, and ihr idea
of that government now hoping to
remove the cause is absolutely
ludicrous. If England should lose
India she would doubtless be ready
to discuss tho opium question seri
ously. At present the almighty
dollar hides all moral considera
tions' " B. A. McGixnis, grand master
of the Odd Fellows of Florida,
issues an appeal to the Odd Fel
lows of the United Slates for a
contribution for the yellow fever
sufferers at Pensacola.
" JIenkt "Waiid Bckchek has
dissolved all connection with any
church union, and will hereafter
preach Beecherism, straight.
Gov. Moody has signed the
pilotage bill.
"All Astounding- Prediction.
Tin: New York "World's Lon
don cable says: The comet is all
the talk in scientific circles- at
present. It is being regarded with
considerable apprehension. Rich
ard A. Proctor, who denied that it
was the comet of 13-13 and 18S0,
now finds that he made a mistake
in his calculations, and so has
withdrawn his statement. More
cautious astronomers than he have
no doubt of the identity of the
comet, and believe that it will re
turn at the latest in October, 1 883,
and will then fall into the sun,
with results which will enable us
to dispense with the future publi
cation of the newspapers of the
world. 1 am assured that this is
the opinion of the most eminent
scientists of the day, ( Piazzi
Smith, the clever astronomer royal
of Scotland, in particular haing
made no secret of his belief that
the end of the world is at hui.d.
Ax anonymous pamphlet, says
the Hour, entitled "The "War of
1SSG, between the United Stales
and Great Britain." has just beer,
published in Cincinnati. The war
will be wholly a naval one, an.? a
fleet oJ English gun-boats will .s-iil
up the St. Lawrence river into our
chain of inland lakes and levy fear
ful contributions on the rich (kit's
situated on them. Another Heel
will lay waste the sea coasts and
incidentally assess this city for a
contribution of 100,000,000. The
United States being without a
navy, will enduie all this evil with
out a struggle. The pamphlet is
a very good satire on onr naval af
fairs, and ought to, as it probably
will be, sent to that great execu
ive genius, ex-Secretary Robeon.
Ax article in the last number of
the New "York Sun, to hand, in
discussing adversely the proposed
Mississippi improvements, stales
that the entire amount of "the na
tional debk is .not sufficient lo
complete the contemplated im
provements." This is the same jour
nal that once irtade a remark which
our friends on the Sound never
tire of' quoting; that the whole of
the U. S. treasury might be emp
tied into the mouth of the Colum
bia without improving tho bar. AYe
hope that improvements in the
Mississippi will demonstrate that
its assertions are as untenable in
tho one case as in the oilier.
Pr seems that we havi; to conf
luence figuring up this census
business all over again. A Wash
ington dispatch says there is a
scandal in tho census bureau that
will probably call for an investi
gating committee as soon as con
gress comes together. The alleged
returns on which the last census
was figured were made up of spol
iation and are worthless. Other
irregularities are also charged.
In lissouri there is no prohibi
tory law,but a rigid statute against
gambling. In Kansas there is no
anti-irambiing law, but there are
prohibitory enactments, t'on-o-cpiently,
card sharp locale their
establishmonts in Kansas near tho
state line, and skip quietly into
Missouri after their whisky. So
long as we can harbor such intellect-
a.i thee, the count iv is
safe.
Tin: New V'ork World is grati
fied to observe that Mr. Henry
Villard has just paid, with inter
est, a debt of 300 which he con
tracted in 1S5G, and-thinks, if he
intends to pursue the same policy
in his official capacity there will
be a surplus of some hundreds of
millions covered into the national
treasury in 1907.
Tiiuklotv "YVcnn is dying. His
demise will be a loss to the'deal
ers in reminiscences, who, for
thirty years have been retailing
what his broken memory vouch
safed. "Crx down," once said Commo
dore Maury, "a tree on the 'Ama
zon river and one at St. Paul and
they will meet somewhere in the
p-ulfof Mexico."
