AST0K1A. OREGON:
SATURDAY -NOVEMBER HI. 1S55
Sinti: January last S,oGl Chi
nese have arrived in San Francis
co from China.
In ISSi, 535,943 acres of public
land were sold in Oregon. In
1SS5, -107,859 acres.
Kastjcux Democratic news
papers are talking of Hendricks
and Hill for SS. That is a long
way off vet.
Tin: registered bonds of the
United States amount to $1,071,
000,000, of which less than $12,
000,000 a re held in foreign coun
tries. An Atlanta policeman works
twelve hours a day for $2.25. An
Atlanta street car driver works
fourteen or fifteen lor $1.53. An
Atlanta sewing girl works twelve
hours a day for 25 cents.
A rvNifAT. observer says that
the main idea of English journal
ism seems to be to say everything
in the dullest possible way, and
he main idea of American jour
nalism seems to be to say nothing
in the smartest possible way.
Tin: postoffice department has
been advised that on the comple
tion of the Canadian Pacific road,
all the trans-Atlantic mails from
England will be forwarded over
that road, and that a new British
line of steamers will be established
at the western terminus of the
Canadian Pacific for Australia.
Di: Lksi:i celebrated his SOlh
birthday in Paris on the 10th.
Ail foreign ambassadors and prom
inent persons in Paris visited him
and paid their respects. Ex-Em
press Eugenie and the khedive of
Egypt telegraphed congratula
tions. De Lesseps is confident he
will live to sail through the Pana
ma canal.
A soiTHKKX philosopher ob eb
serves: "There is an appreciable
amount of hog in human nature.
Hogs will squeal and scuffle and
trot for miles behind a leaky old
wagon loaded with corn, but will
not budge an inch after a wagon
with a tight body. Civil service
reform will tighten up the joints
of the public crib, and we will
have no hungry, uoisy politicians i
hanarins around it.'
Senator Doi.ru has two impor
tant bills in preparation, which he
will introduce as soon as congress
opens and press earnestly to en
actment. The first relates to the
admission of "Washington territor.
with some geographical modifica
tions. He proposes to include the
Panhandle of Idaho within the
boundary of Washington, so that
the southern line of the proposed
state will stretch across to Mon
tana. He says the whole territory
within the new boundary contains
at least 175,000 people. He is
confident that il:e hi!! '.;ll pass
the . "senate, and uhi-ihcr it iroes
through the Iioum- v. ill depend
largely on the irl;cy f the admin
istratiosi. It is ;'u the piesident
favors the admi--n:i ! Dakota,
and it is infenud ih:si 1 would
likewise favor the inliis.s-ion of
"Washington. Dolpli, however, is
not sanguine of Democratic aid.
His other measure is a bill for the
forfeiture of the laud grant on the
main line of the .Northern Pacific
from Wallula to Portland. The
Northern Pacific has not built the
road and does not intend to at
present. He thinks the sentiment
in eastern (Oregon is in favor of
forfeiture.
Yesterday's San Francisco
(Jail says: Ex-Senator Mitchell
has been elected to the United
States senate. A suggestive fea
ture in the election of Mitchell is
the fact that it was accomplished
by Democratic votes. The Demo
crats conld not elect a candidate
of their own, but if the Republic
ans failed to elect in the extra ses
sion, as they had in the regular
session, the Democrats would have
stood a good chance to carry the
next legislature. The circum
stance of their preferring to elect
a Republican to waiting for their
chance, is suggestive of some mo
tive which does not appear upon
the face of the vote. The fact
that Democratic votes were given
to Mitchell by the action of the
caucus makes the matter more
suggestive. The natural attitude
of the Democrats would have been
that of delay. It is intimated that
Mitchell has agreed to sustain the
administration when requested to
do so. This means that his vote
will be given on the Democratic
side if the Republicans should re
solve upon partisan opposition to
Mr. Cleveland's nominations. At
the present time this means a good
deal. About the only issue be
tween the parties in the senate is
that of confirming Mr. Cleveland's
appointments. On the tariff, -silver
and most other questions like
ly to come before the senate the
Democrats and Republicans will
divide without much relation to
party divisions.
