Ex-Senator ErDDLEBERGEB an
nounces that lie will not vote for
General Malione for governor of Vir
ginia, and predicts his defeat.
-
Kecext political events in Iowa
have resulted in a triumph for senator
Allison, and his return to the senate
for another term is now assured. Sen
ator Allison is one of the ablest men in
the senate and Iowa does well not to
retire him.
Bill Nye has been financially "done
up" by a Minnesota real estate man,
who induced the humorist to trade
his house and lot at Hudson, "Wis., for
some worthless suburban lots near
Minneapolis having a $1,000 mortgage
attachment.
The county of Custer, in Montana,
h the largest county in the United
States. It contains 13,569,920 acres
and is 150 miles long and 125 miles
wide. It is a place of historic inter
est, containing, as it does, the site of
the great battle of the Little-Big
Horn, where Custer and his force were
massacred.
Tuppek, the Dominion minister of
marine and fisheries, says that all
ships of her Majesty's navy are ex
empt from the instructions issued to
the Canadian government's harbor
master. This statement was called
forth while discussing the recent ac
tion of Admiral Heneage at Esqui
mault in removing a German vessel
to make room for one of his squadron.
In the elections this fall, in addi
tion to the four new states which
vote in October, five states Massa
chusetts, Mississippi, New Jersey,
Ohio, and Virginia will elect gov
ernors and state offiecrs. New York
will elect state officers, except gov
ernor and lieutenant governor, a judge
of the court of appeals and a new
legislature, and Maryland, Nebraska
and Pennsylvania will elect certain
minor state officers.
New York figures up to its own
satisfaction that during .the world's
fair in 1892 at least half a million
people will be added to the transient
population of the city, who will spend
there 450,000,000. St Louis, which
has an executive committee and a
finance committee at work on its
world's fair-project, may be counted
on to "see" these figures and go them
a good deal better, and the arithmet
ical mind is appalled at the prospect
of Chicago's figuring.
Even in the pineries and densely
wooded sections of Michigan and
Wisconsin there have been no such
forest fires as those reported as rag
ing in Montana at the present time.
In September, 1881, over 2,000 square
iriles of Michigan was burned over
and 15,000 people rendered homeless,
while 200 people lost their lives. The
destruction of life and property in
Montana is perhaps not so great as
this, but the area swept by the flames
is much more extensive, being esti
mated at from 3,000 to 10,000 square
miles. Eternal vigilance is the only
safeguard against theso destructive
visitations.
ADVICE FROM BELOW STAIRS.
"Bridget, I -would give all my wealth for
half of your health."
"Sure, ma'am, you need only give ?5, lor
that's the price of eIx bottles of ' J. V. S.,' as
the boys call It Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla
will make you as strong as me, ma'am."
Mrs. J. Barron, of 142 Seventh street, San
Francisco, writes: "I have been taking Joy'a
Vegetable Sarsaparilla with Immense benefit,
It is perfectly splendid to build up nervous,
run-down and worn out women." Sirs. Fred
Loy, of 327 Ellis street, Mrs. G. Werner of 235,
Berry street, and hundreds of others relate
tne same experience with the pure vegetable
Juices of this California compound.

The "Potter's" Last Trip on Tuesday.
Telegraphic Letter From the Metropolis.
Portland, Sept. 7. The steamer
T.J. Potter vn make her last trip
to Astoria for this season on Tues
day the 10th inst.
Reports from the big Oregon ex
hibit now travelling in the eastern
states pronounce it to be the finest
in the country. The exhibit is now at
Buffalo, New York.
Over 2,DOO,000 brick have been or
dered for Seattle. All the yards in
the city are running full blast and
are unable to snpply the demand.
This afternoon Savannah I. Bran
don was divorced by judge Stearns
from liichard Brandon.
William Basquell, the young Eng
lish sailor apprentice who sued the
British ship City of Carlisle for
$15,000jn the United States district
court, and who secured a judgement
for $1,530, will soon leave overland
for New York, where he will take a
steamer for London where his parents
reside. The boy was badly hurt.
Though he was once a very bright
little fellow, since the accident by
which his skull was broken he acts
like a baby.
There is verv little wheat coming
into the city at present. Some full
carloads have arrived over the South
ern Pacific from the valley but the
farmers are pretty I 'generally able to
hold and are waiting till prices get
better. At present offers are very low
and the prospect is that before very
long they will be much better. The
large fleet of vessels now enroute to
the Columbia will have to be sup
plied with cargoes and if the supply
keeps so close as their charters near
the date of expiration the commission
men will be forced to secure wheat
even at an advance.
The Portland flouring mills are not
running at full blast, as heretofore,
on account of their inability to se
cure wheat nt prevailing prices.
There is lots of wheat in the ceuntry:
in fact the past season has Been one
of the most auspicious the state has
ever known. Whatever wheat is mov
ing now, which is very little, indeed,
is Jiot under sale, bnt for storage.
The last steamer from San Fran
cisco brought, as a portion of her car
go, a large quantity "of slot rail for
the Portland Cable Railway company.
This is the rail, the lack of which has
so long retarded the building of tho

CHINESE TOURISTS.
New York, Sept. 7. The arrival
yesterday in the Chinese quarter of
this city of four Chinamen clearly
demonstrates the evil effects of the
ruling of attorney-general Miller and
secretary Windom in the matter of
Chinese so-called tourists. These four
are fresh from China via San Fran
cisco, and they stated that they each
paid 3160 to enter this country."
jTUDOE HOADLEV'S OPINION.
New York, Sept 4 Judge Hoad
ley, addressing the social convention,
said the decision of the United States
preventing the use of breweries in
Kansas, against the manufacture of
oleomargarine in Pennsylvania and
fixing prices for elevating grain in Illi
nois, were contraventions of the bills
of rights of several states securing to
the people the right to hold and enjoy
their property.
