There are some big grain farms in
western Oregon, as veil as in tbe "in
land empire." A correspondent of
the Washington county Independent
says J. S Hallethas 180.000 bushels
of oats stored in his granaries. Al
lowing fifty bushels to the acre, 3,600
acres would bo required to raise that
amount of grain. A train of COO
oars would be necessary to move the
crop, putting 300 bushels in a car,
and the train would measure more
than three miles in length. At 50
cents a bushel, tbo prico asked by Mr.
Hallet, the oat3 will bring $90,000.
It is believed that the muoh talked
of sale of tbo unfinished Oregon and

est for three years and 5 per cent,
thereafter with which to take up all
the Oregon and California bonds and
leave a surplus to complete tbo road
to a connection with the Central Pa
cific, to build a track from Corvallis
to a junction with the Orogon West
Side line and to relay the Oregon and
California with steel rails. But tho
attorneys have raised the questions
whether tbe Central Pacific company
under its charter can become owner
of tho Oregon and California road;
secondly, if tho United States govern
ment's lien on the main line of the
Central Pacifio would not attach to
and cover the Oregon and California
if it was purchased by the Central
Pacific.

Invisible Ink for Postal Cards.
Diluted sulphuric acid one part,
by measure, of acid to seven of water.
When this ink is used the card will
at first show roughened traces of the
writing, but after being allowed to
dry for a short timo these disappear,
and it is as invisible as if done with
water. Of course only a gold pen or
a quill muBt be used. If is desired
to avoid the suspicion of using sym
pathetic ink, which might be excited
by a blank postal card, it may be
written npon across the first writing
with the tincture of iodine, which
will entirely fade out when the heat
is applied to develop the invisible
ink.

CUM GBANO SALIS.
Sjln Feaxcisco, Dec 15. A most
sensational and startling plot for the
wholesale assassination ot the most
prominent men of this city came to
light here to-night. Some timo ago
the police obtained information of an
organization called the "Socialistic
Revolutionary Association," which,
it was asserted was composed of ultra
socialistic members. Close watch
was kept on their movements and the
police finally succeeded in obtaining
tho minute3 oi one ot ineir meetings,
held November 23. From these facts
it was discovered that it was the inten
tion of the association to "put out of
the way" about twenty men, including
W. T. 'Coleman, Congressman W. W.
Morrow, Gen. W. H. L. Barnes,
Mayor Bartlett, United States
Judce Lorenzo Sawyer, Leland Stan
ford, Charles Crocker, Gov. Stoneman,
the principal police officials and
several others. These names were
placed on the "prescriptive list," and
placed in tho hands of the executive
committee, to carry out the orders
of the association. The committee
were to devise the best mode of ac
complishing the ends of the base plot,
and were thus engaged when their
work was brought to a sudden termi
nation to-night by the discovery of
the association's headquarters, at 000
Montgomery avenue, by tbe police,
and the arrest of fonr men found
therein Julius O. Koosher, Henry
Wiseman, Chas. Mittelstadt and Os
car Eggers. In the room was also
found a complete laboratory for
manufacturing infernal machines.
Ten men were taken to the city
prison, where they boldly asserted
that they were dynamiters, and their
purpose was to get rid of tho citizens
named and then raze Chinatown.
The piisoners also belong to the
German branoh of the Anti-Coolie
league. No charge has yet been en
tered against the prisoners. Further
developments are expected.

of experience. He lived in Ohio,
New York and Iowa prior to coming
to the Pacific coast On arrival here
he settled in Oregon, where he lived
several years. He then moved over
to Vancouver, and later to Walla
Walla, in this territory. In 1873 he
left the territory, went east, and set
tled in Mississippi; was admitted to
practice there, was elected to tho
state constitutional convention to
framo a state constitution, and prac
ticed his profession in tbat state fo r
over a year, after which ho removed
to Texas to engage in business with
his brother. Alter a abort residence
in Texas, he removed to San Fran

his profession for abont a year, after
which he removed to Lewistou, Ida

Judge David Key, of Tennessee,

scriptions, but who would never give
a decided opinion upon any question.
On one occasion when he was a can
didate for tbe position of nherifT
there was great excitement on the
enforcement of the school tax. Ho
addressed quite n gathering at a runs
ter, but evaded the only question
that the audience wanted to hear
about, and just as he was closing a
fellow sheuted: "Tell us about tho
school tax. Are yon for it, or are you
not?" The crowd cheered, and "the
orator thus pressed for a declaration
of opinion said: "Gentlemen, yon have
a right to ask for an answer. I havo
no concealment to make. I am a
frank man, and to you I say in all

CLEVELAND'S 6ENEB0SITY.
A lawyer friend of President Cleve
land from Buffalo gives me some
interesting gossip about him. Said
he: "President Cleveland is worth
about $100,000, and he owns consider
able real estate in Buffalo, which is
fast growing in value. He made 25,
000 a year at his practice before he
got into politics. He is not an ex
travagant man im any of his tastes,
and he has never been so. Ho had a
ClaS3 of case3 at Buffalo which nnid
well, and he was Mteu the counsel
iui i-uipuianujjb hi uig cases. niio
be was covernor of New York ha
gave away tho whole of his Balary in
cnanty, save tnat which, be used, for
his personal exoensea and for thn
support of his mother. I have seen
many instances of his charity. One
night I was with him in his private
oince at tne Albany capitol. It was
after he had been elected president
He was opening his mail, and many
of the letters contained requests for
alms. I saw Governor Cleveland
answer fully half a dozen of these by
inclosing 5, $10, and at one time a
$20 bill in an envelope with a kind
word, and sending it to the beggar.
One case was especially touch
ing It was that of an old
man in southern New York who had
lost hia horse by death. He had a
little garden patch of a farm, and
this horse was the solo means of mak
ing a livelihood upon it He had
raised some money by contributions
from his neighbors, but still lacked
enough by $20 to buy the horae
which was to servo as the support of
himself and hi3 gray-haired wife.
Somo of the neighbors had heard of
Cleveland's charity, and had sug
gested that ho write to him and' ask
him to help him. From the tenor of
tbe letter yon could see that tho oid
man was very proud of its composi
tion and handwriting. He Baid that
he had written it himself, with his
own hand and the appeal throughout
was that of a simple-minded, unso
phisticated, childlike person. Cleve
land's oyos filled with tears a3 he
read it, and ho put a S20 bill in an
envelope and sent it to him with a
few kind words. I have no doubt,"
concluded this man, "but that Presi
dent Cleveland is giving away a great
deal of hia salary in ehnrifcv. Tf Iir
does so you may be sure that no one
uuiaiuu ul iuo wnuo nouso win
know of it" Correspondence Cleve
