en t gaita inrtortim. ASTOKIA. OREGON; SUNDAY DECEMBER C.1S85 THE OREGONIAN. The Oregonian was thirty-five years old yesterday. The Sun day Oregonian celebrates its fourth aniversary to-day. To say that the Oregonian is the leading newspaper of the northwest is but to say what every one concedes to be the fact. In general its. re sponsibility is the measure of its pewer: it is a factor of good in the circle of its influence and its efforts are for the best interests of the country that for over a gener ation has supported it and seen it prosper. As a newspaper, a ve hicle for the dissemination of intel ligence it is the paper. This is the chief function of a public jour nal that has for its purpose what the Oregonian claims is its intent. Apart from the lurnishing of news a newspaper is supposed to echo public thought, to voice public sentiment, and without specially leading, to direct public opinion. When the opinion of a newspaper is believed to be unbiased it has considerable influence: when that opinion is evidently the public ex pression of private judgement or appears to be influenced by preju dice or a desire to view only one side of the case, the opinion loses weight. People care less for newspaper opinions than most newspaper men imagine. Of course a man in or out of a newspaper office that has no opinion is a fool; a man that is afraid to express his opinion is a coward, but what we mean is a vast majority of news paper readers care less for the editor's opinion than for the exact statement of the facts themselves. In coloring the statement of facts to suit the beliefs, hopes or wishes of the editor, the journal in question loses prestige and stand ing, for people readily see and judge how much credence to give what they see in a newspaper. It is but due the Oregonian to say that it has always had the courage of its convictions, and although not always willing to concede to others the consistency it claims for itself, yet, on the whole, it exhibits at least no more of that spirit than its lesser contemporaries. The AsTOitiAX congratulates its Portland contemporary on its thirty-fifth birthday, and is sincerely pleased to note the editorial state ment in yesterday's issue that it is doing a good business and is finan cially a success. t m In. 1855 each operator in a shoe factory (according to Massachu setts labor commission statistics) made 455 pairs of shoes and earned 205 a year. In 1885 he made 1,205 pairs, and his wages had risen to $390, though he worked 22 per cent less time. Bisnop HrGH Mili.ki: Thomp son, when recently akfil if wom en were equally etp-.hle with men in receiving what i-. ca'.k'l the higher education, i- fri'dired with the answer, ''Then1 i no ;:ex in intellect." All told there woreiJjMl collis ions between Union and rebel troops during the war. In this enumeration the minimum of Un. ion troops is 400 and the maximum 100,000. In olden times whales taken off the English coast were perquisites of royalty. They were eateti by the Saxons, and even Queen Eliz "beth used to eat porpoise on Fri. days. A foot-pound is a force which will raise a pound one foot, and 33,000 of these foot-pounds make one horse-power. i A lakgee ratio of people born in Yermont have emigrated than from any other state in the Union. There are over 12,000 fisher men engaged in trawling in the North Sea, off the coast of England. Ix Thibet the "women do all the hard work, leaving the men to do all the visiting and gossiping. Kansas City is shocked to find that it has 2,318 more males than females. NEW TO-DAY. Democratic Ticket. For Mayor J. 0. TRULLINGER Councilman 1st Ward.. P. E.

The nominations were maae uy acclamation and voted on lv narties not en titled to vote. In fact Mr. Editor there were men voting there who were not 21 hours off a British ship. The nomination of Street Supt. was balloted for, and when the t-llers who were appointed by the chair came to count the vote as many as seven ucxets in a bunch were taken out in favor of my oppo nent. JOHN McCANN. Communication. Astobu, Obkoon, Dec, To tlie Citizen of Asteria: S.1885. At the request of Mr. W. J. Barry, we this day investigated the charges lately circulated in this community by Mr. Chas. Hanwn against said Barry, viz: lit. That while Barry was Chief of Police in 1881, he, Hansen paid to Barry $20 as bail for "Win. Uhnck and John Knutson, and that said money had not been accounted for by Barry t and 2d. That on another occasion be, Han sen paid Barry the sum of $20 as bail for one Henry Olsen, which was not ac counted for by Mr. Barry. We find in reference to the first charg es the records of the Police court show that the money was paid into court by Mr. Barry and was forfeited to the city. As to the second charge Mr. Barry claims that only $5 was paid to him, and that it was paid on the fth dny of July, 1881, while Mr. Hansen asserts that he paid the $20 on the 23d day of Jnly, 1831. The records of the Police court do not show that there were any arrests made on the 23d day of July, 1881; but it does appear therefrom that Henry Olsen was arrested and let out on $5 bail on the oth day of July, 1831, and that said sum was paid into court and forfeited to the city, and Mr. Hansen's own private books show that on said 5th day of July, 1631, he paid'$5 to the jail," which sum is in said Olsen's account and the en tries in his book of July 23d, 1831, do not show any payment to the jail" or for bail for said Olsen. And we are fully satisfied from the evidence that there is no foundation whatever for either of the charges. FkihkL. Paeeeb. J. F. Fbechek. N. E. Goodell.
