The prettiest campaign badge re
ceived at this offioe this summer came
last niRlit in the mail from Chicago.
It is fiercely Democratic, n photo
graphic bandana, with the portraits
of Cleveland and Thurman bound in
silver and surmounted by a silver
rooster, tue wnole business having a
pin on the back to attach the badge
to the coat or vest On the Ilwaco
boat about the same time came a man
with two zip coons, for Republican
headquarters, who say a if that rooster
was in the flesh, one of his Republi
can coohb would make him look
mighty sick.
After nearly three months ot effort,
A. Gibbons, an experienced account
ant, and county clerk Trenchard
have succeeded in getting a succinct
report of the county's financial con
dition and yesterday submitted it to
the county court, it bejng approved.
The preparation of such a report,
running back, as it does, to 1882, in
volves an exhaustive and elaborate
overhauling of all tho county busi
ness. Among other pleasant little
items of the work, is the counting
and entering of abont 13,000 separate
county warrants according to the
report. The present indebtedness of
this county, to date, is about 855.000.
A visit to the John Day's region
shows considerable being done in the
way of cultivation and improvement.
On seeing the growth on such a place
as Howell Lewis's, for instance, the
first thought that strikes one is why
anyone in Clatsop county who can
get hold of an acre ot its soil should
ever allow any talk of "hard times" to
worry him. Here on the tide land,
is oats that stand over six feet high,
and which, harvested as hay, will go,
as experience proves, six tons to the
acre fully equal to 820 n ton hay
imported from California, and vastly
.superior to the straw that comes from
our sister state and which is sold at
that figure. On the higher ground
ol Mr. .Lewis s place are raised pota
toes 300 bushels to the aore at 1
cent a pound, this means 8180 for an
acre's yield. His is only one ot hun
dreds. The fact is there is such a
profusion of resources and natural
yield in this conntry that it is over
whelming. There was once a don
key who starved to death between
two bundles of fine hay, because he
couldn't make up his mind which
bundle to tackle first. A man that
goes around crying about hard times
when soil to be had for the asking is
waiting to be tickled with a hoe that
it may laugh with a harvest of profit,
is a suggestive parallel.

It is said by parties who have vis

and that dire discouragement stares
farmers in the face. Some are selling

they can get, and others are leaving
everything. The situation is indeed
a gloomy one. East Oregonian.

tTNWELOOME IMMIGEANTS.
Discharged Criminals Assisted To
This Country.
(IMCUI TO THE 18TOBUX.)
New York, July 28. Steve Brodie,
the bridge jumper and -Bowery sa
loon keeper and the Albany girl whom
he is accused of abduoting were ar
raigned at the Tombs to-day. The
girl's mother, Mrs. Laura Ford, ot
Albany, was presented and admitted
that the girl was 16 years old. The
charge of abduction therefore fell
through. It was then decided to
hold the girl as an incorrigible.
While waiting the removal of the
girl to the bouse of mercy, she made,
a desperate but unsuccessful attempt
to plunges knife into her breast1
Had not a policeman caught her arm
she would have succeeded. The girl
remarked defiantly: "Well, either I
will be allowed to go with Steve or I
will do it yet."
Brodie and she had been living to
gether for a week. He asserts that
they would have been married had it
not been for the recent death of his
wife.
ONE KIND OF IMillORATlOS.
New York, July 28. When the
four congressmen who are investi
gating the emigration affairs ot the
country assembled to-day, Paul
Wolff, the Washington correspondent
of the New York Staats Zeitung,
took the witness stand and stated
that some years ago he was informed
tnat tnere were several societies in
Germany and especially in Bavaria
formed for the purpose of sending
aiscnarged criminals to this country.
The witness laid this information be
fore the assistant secretary of state
and that gentleman wrote to the
American consul at Munich on the
subject who replied in December
1885 that there were no such soci
eties. The witness then read extracts
from the reports of one of these soci
eties showing that in 1883 twenty
seven discharged convicts were sent
to this country by societies. The re
port said that the worse that the men
are and the larger families they lave,
the better they are to send to Amer
ica. The witness said the societies
are not government affairs but the
royal counselor Bouer is president
and prince regent Luithold is honor
ary president of one society.
In 1886 their report is more cau
tiously worded but it shows that out
of 1,500 marks expended nearly half
was used to assist emigrants to come
to America.

CHARGED WITH BLACKMAIIi. ,.
C EL Molsaacs, author ot the re-"
cent work "Haut Ton," and a young
newspaper man well known here, was
arrested this evening, on a charge of
attempted blackmail of Mrs. Dr.
Murray. She states that he claimed
that he represented the Daily Netos
and that he demanded fifteen hun
dred dollars with the threat that if
this amount was not paid the Wetcs
wonld publish an article derogatory
to Mrs. Murray's character. This
conversation was heard by five wit
nesses who were concealed.
An Explanation.
What is this "nervous trouble" with
which so many seem now to be af
flicted? If you will remember a few
years ago the word Malaria was com
paratively unknown, to-day it is as
common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only
the meaning of another word used by
our forefathers in times past So it
is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended to cover what
our grandfathers called Billiousness,
and all are caused by troubles that
arise from a diseased condition of the
Liver which in performing its func
tions finding it cannot dispose of tbe
b'.le through the ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it off through the
system, causing, nervous .troubles,
Malaria, Billions Fever, etc. -You
who are suffering can well appreciate
a cure. We recommend Green's Au
gust Flower. Its cures are mar
velous. Startling News From Nebraska.
By an exchange from Hastings, Ne
braska of Jul 13, we learn that hun
dreds of people perished miserably
in a blinding storm' of snow and ice.
Owing to the intense heat ot two
weeks previous,.the people were un
prepared for tbe worst storm ever
experienced in that .state. The ther
mometer fell one hundred and twenty
five degrees inside ot two "hours.
The snow was eight feet deep in the
streets. It was impossible for any
one to be ont with out perishing in n
short time. The storm lasted about
five ,hours,and proved very destruc
tive. West Side Telephone, 27.
