ra fE&e gaits torfan. ASTOKIA, OREGON: WEDNESDAY - ...JUNE 13. 1SS4 It is rumored that Mr. Tilden is writing a book. The man who -was born the day the battle of Waterloo was fought, if alive, is 69 years old to-day. The public debt statement for May shows a decrease of $4,763,241. The available cash balance is $147,817,660. i - The members of the Massachusetts legislature have raised their salaries $150 over the governor's veto. PistoiiS are going out of style in Texas. A return to the more gentle manlike and incisive bowie-knife is talked of. For the sake of euphony the Dem ocrats should nominate Payne. The name, it is plain, rhymes nicely with Blaine. These are fully 20,000 people be tween Natchez and Vioksburg who are destitute and have no prospects that they can raise a decent crop un til n est year. All appropriations in the river and harbor bill affecting California and Oregon have been passed by the house in the shape they were re ported in the bill. The St Louis people are already talking about a world's fair, to be held in that city in 1892, commemo rative of the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America by Columbus A utekk "ago it looked as if the Demoorutic presidential nominee would be S. J. Tilden; after his letter there was a little boom forS. J. Field, and now there is considerable talk of running S. J. Randall. Ekqlish papers are still objecting to the recent nomination of Blaine. It is quite not clear just what the country ib going to do about it, but it is evi dent that the Chicago delegates made a great mistake in presuming to name their candidate before consulting England. The money asked for by Secretary Frelinghuysen is desired to promote negotiations for a treaty that has been pending for many months past between the United States and Nicar agua, the securement of whioh, it is claimed, will guarantee the suprem acy of the United States upon the isthmus, and will avert the possibility of a foreign war for the control of Central America and the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine. Ax effort is makint? to introduce into the house of representatives a temperance bill w"hich provides that liquor drinkers shall be licensed, and that any man so licensed shall wear a badge openly on his coat Under the guise of temperance this is doubt less a scheme on the part of some badge manufacturing company to boom its business. It will also af ford employment to skillful design ers, as men of different tastes would require appropriate emblems. Some very curious statistics as to paper-making have recently been compiled on the continent. It seems that there are 3,9S5 paper mills on the face of the earth, in which annually 1,904,000,000 pounds of paper 'are manufactured. Half of this paper is used for printing; 600,000,000 pounds for newspapers only, the consump tion of which has risen by 200,000, 000 pounds during the last ten years. As to the consumption in different countries, an average of 11 pounds is used by an Englishman, 10 pounds by an American, 8 pounds by a German, 7rf pounds by a French man S pounds by nn Italian or Austrian, 1 pounds by a Spaniard, 1 pound by a Russian, and 2 pounds by a Mexican. It has been discovered by a Berlin professo r that the moon is inhabited. Instead of being a dried up, crusty old boom, it is a land flowing with milk and honey. There are oities, towns and fertile plains, -while men and women are thicker than the of. flce-seekers at a Chicago convention. Professor Blendmann even goes the length of hinting that rare oppor tunities are offered in the moon for enterprising earthly persons possessed of a little capital. It will be at once apparent to all discerning persons that the bolters who had their feelings so severely woundedin Chicago would find it greatly to their advantage to take passage by the air-line in the di rection of the orb of night Thebe is great demand throughout the press at present for snake stories. we Know ot no especial reason for this peculiar exhibition of journalistic taste, unless it be that the Bepubli nan AnnTrAvifit tlAnnJl a -MwniBuuuuuiuBtjuiis aoors in n blaze of glory, and the Demooratio circus will erect its tent in Jnlv. There is always a run on snake stories during presidential years. They seem to suit the spirit of the time. Repub licans find in them a lesson which they frequently fail to heed, and for the average Democrat they hold a fascination which cannot well be ex plained. Snake stories are certainly not pleasant reading, but neither are the average convention speeches. After the conventions the snakes will be found, -where snakes are common ground "the stump," Two years ago, Dana, editor of the Now York Sun, answered some news papers that proposed to nominate him for the presidency in "84 that "he would rather be theeditorof the Sun than president of the United States. He may have changed his opinion since then, but president oNthe United States he can never be. The people do not want a ghouL In gen eral a newsapper's fight ends with the death of the individual it attacks' but in the case of the lamented Gar field the grave had no sooner closed over him than the Sun began a most brutal attack on his memory and kept it np for two years. :SEW TO-DAY.
