TODAY'S WEATHER. Portland, Dec. 12. For Washington and Western Oregon, rain, slightly warmer. For Eastern Oregon, fair weather. President Cleveland is -said to still adhere firmly to his belief In the cor rectness of Blount's report. Pelt'er, with his whiskers, is again 1 Washington, ready to relieve the peo ple by "coining" money to any exien Even the Boston Herald says "Every :nan can lift his hat to Governor Xic- Kinley." The people have done more than that and are not through with it either. If Europe wants to establish a mon archy In Hriiisll she can sail right In Uncle Sum's administration Is engage in ine same kiiiu or a jun, ami won have i word to say In protest. Many little messages are on the so from the state department to Mr. Wll lis, telling him what to do or not to do, but the American people ore expected to receive their Information by way Australia, England, or Canada. An exchange remarks "that the pies ldent Is perplexed about the appoint went of an anibnibsador to Italy. Why Is not Mr. Whitney the next man? 11 Ik not afraid to open a cold, big IniUle of champagne occasionally. Hut Dr. McCllynn is the real man for the place Georgia, wants state banks righ away. The first, thing congress shnul (la to meet the demands of the Smilh orn states Is the removal of the tax on I'iri'uiaiioii. due I'liicago platform con tains a solemn promise Unit the state sovereigns ore to be released from federal Interference with state rency. cur The president Bliould apply his m tense feeling of responsibility to lolling I he people what ho hns been doing fur them at Honolulu. Tho president lather too utter. Ills judgment that no I'uuiury resin upon Ills HtloUItlel'H IS a mistake. Ho has done one gm turn In getting the purchase of silver slopped. That Is a neat achievement but the evidence accumulates Hi mem uiu m'veiiii tilings ne Hues no l.liow. j ne u.iiu'iy in tne .rvmnmnun mn nniM m iimr nine-nit ii, i weuiy-tun Aim i.trong guns, and four poveiity-poiiial- ers, with a nunilier of small rapid-lire and machine guns. Her armor varies in iiiiiKiieas iroiu iwo to let! Inches. Tho probability is that her nlne-liuh twenty-ton ArniRtaongs will make Miml work of the Job of sinking tho Impro vised warships fitted out In New York It was supposed the mutineer w.ir- hlp was harbor-locked, and then on Hrnooth water theie was a possibility of using the dyi.amlte guns and tur pi does effectually. A fight on the high mos is another matter. In New York there is an odd liitie postoffioe nght In progress that Is, a Pght for a sub-station and the pure and reformed administration Is about to take away the sub-station from a banker who dots business with the Italian residents who largely Inhabit the district, and give it to a liquor dealer, who also does business with the wine element though, perhaps, not with the tame Individuals. The banker gave poslollke room free-, and the II- ciuor ocaier is to g.u rent. The simple reason appears lo be that the banker, Mr. La Maida, is a republican, ond the lltjuor dealer, Mr. Acconlca, is a dem ocraU, Tha president Is in favor of an In come tax trnly, however, a very "lit ue one- a. smaii tax upon Incomes derived from certain corporate Invest ments." This "small tax" Is evidently -r.eant to gratify (ho populists, who will think it a fine start for class leg islation; and then It Is to aeslst In turning a corner. It is not expected lo touch the incomes of congressmen, and presidents, ambassadors and postmas ters. In a word, It Is a futility. A few years ago the laying of a tele graph cable across the ocean was an tvent which caused unbounded inter- Ft on two continents. Now the fact that the Commercial Company is to lay a new cable between Ireland and Nova Scotia in the spring, that It will be 2,200 miles in length, and that this will make three cables between the same polnt3 owned by the company, Is only deemed worthy of a brief para graph in the daily prints. The world moves. A GOOD WORD. Mr. J. J. Kell, Sharpsbure. Pa. Dear Slr:-1 am glad to sav a rrnnrl woru jur nrause s iieauacne Capsules.
