t gailjj tfforiatt. AST0K1A, OREGON: FIUDAY.... .MAKCH 14, 1S&1 , Why should tin two parties bother about platforms. "What they need are votes. Massachusetts is about to pass a law abolishing the poll-tax qualifica tion for voters in thai state. The average price of farm labor for the whole United States is S18.5S per month, an increase of nearly forty per cent since 1851 Resolutions by the miners of the CcBur d'Alene: "Not a Chinaman shall ever enter the diggings unless he climbs a tree, with one end of a lariat over a limb." Imported silk now comes from New Jersey, English pudding is made in Delaware, French sauces are made in Connecticut, Rhine wine is bottled In California and American beef is raised in England. In Dakota married women retain their own real and personal property, and may make contracts, sue and be sued, as if single. Neither husband nor wife has any interest in the prop erty of the other. England's appeal to us to suppress the dynamiters is pathetic; but it forgets that this is the presidential year, and we have enough to do to suppiess the patriots who want to save the country. It is noted as a curious fact that the present greatest rival of the United States in the production of wheat, India, is a country in which the lauds have been worn by ages of constant cultivation. The house of representatives should , without delay j;ive its approval to the ' bill which "has passed the senate mak ing an appropriation for the con- struction of seven new war ships. In the present wretched condition of our navy we are are at the inercy on the sea of countries as insignificant as Chili. Prince Bismarck would not have dared to insult our idolized western hog if he knew that it would bo avenged with broadsides of shot and shelL "Without n strong navy our hog will always be at the mercy of the European despots. What the German chancellor is doing to-day may become to-morrow the policy of Frace or England or Italy. The American hog imperatively demands that he have a navy for his protection. Pkesident AfiTHURhas sent to con gress the report of the commission appointed to inquire into the health of our sBsthetic American hog, with a message in which he suggests that this lovely animal, a million times more important than Mr. Barnum's white elephant, deserves the most careful consideration of congress "to that end if any path be legiti mately open for removing the pro hibition which closes important for eign markets to those products it may be followed, and appropriate legisla tion devised." This is a great hog victory. First of all there is a clean bill of health, and, second, the shields of King Arthur and of all the knights of his cabinet round-table rise up to panoply our pork. The hog, our darling hog, hurls his defiance at Bismarck. If the Democratic party is wise, it will take the Cincinnati favorite to its bosom right away. King Arthur with lance in rest on a hog's back next November, running full tilt against Prince Bismarck, may-carry the whole electoral col lege before him.

NEW TO-DAY. Georgia, is a very productive st,ate. It appears among her statistics that there is an average of 10 babies born daily throughout the year, in cluding Sundays. Georgia is prob ably the only state in the country where two-thirds of a baby is born. Nabob VaxdekbiiiT says he con siders journalism ''the meaueat busi ness a man can be in."

BANKING AND INSURANCE The Weekly Astorian OlTT The San Francisco Gioccr says in beginning an editorial on the tariff "We will take quinine to illustrate the workings of protection." All right! You can take quinine if you want to. Why in the world you select quinine when there are so many nicer tasting things to take is what get3 us. Nor is it quite clear how your taking quinine is going to "illustrate the workings of protection." Probably the San Francisco man has got ague and protection mixed. Fob the first time in its history the Republican party seems to have a man who is stronger as a candidate for nomination to the vice presidency than any aspirant is for the presiden tial nomination. Secretary Lincoln is apparently the favorite everywhere for the second place on the ticket, and his name is mentioned in that oonnnection by the friends of nearly all the gentlemen who are under stood to be fishing for the presidency. The recent battle on the shores of the Red Sea afforded the one thou sand and first illustration of tl e superiority of disciplined troops. Xot quite a hundred years ago Napoleon won victories in Egypt over just such adversaries as the English have en countered at Teb and Tel-el-Kebir. Moors, Romans and Greeks, one after the other, have fought all over the regions of Africa, Asia and Europe in the neighborhood of the Mediter ranean, and trained valor has hardly ever failed to overcome unskillful fanaticism. 072x13 Morning; In Wrapper ready for Mailing.

Senator Eiodlebkbgeij, the Vir ginian Readjuster, is a fluent stump speaker, and noted for the ease th which he slips over the strong points scored by his opponents in a personal debate. Upon one occasion, at Win cheater, after listening to a masterly presentation of the Democratic is sues, the Senator arose and, waving his had flippantly in the air as if brushing aside a fly, began: "Fel low oitizens, I can write everything the gentleman has said upon a ten oeat piece, and still have room enough left for the Lord's Prayer."
