Minimum temperature, 34 degrees. Preolnitatlon. .01 inch. Total precipitation from July 1st, 1893, to date, 46.08 inches. Excess of precipitation from July 1st, 1893, to date, .5H inches. TODAY'S WEATHER. Portland, Jan. 8. For Western Wash ington, fair weather, followed by rain, slight temperature changes. For Oregon and Eastern Washington, fair weather.sllg htly warmer. Owners of coal mines in the Eastern states are growing alarmed at the pros pect of competition with the product of the English mines, over a million tons of which can be thrown yearly Into Eastern ports free of charge If the duty Is removed. That Is to say, if that com modity were used as ballast. The Mar itime Association of the port of New York, report that the number of vessels which entered into United States portt from the United Kingdom wore 3,143, of 6,030,030 tons, of which were with car goes, 2,109 vessels, of 4,041,487 tons; leaving in ballast, 1,034 vessels of 1,394, 642 tons. These figures readily show that the amount of English coal which could be brought into the Eastern mar kets would be Hn Important factor In llxlng prices, and that the alarm of the mine-owners is not without good foun dation. This would strike In two far apart places. The grain Bhlps could come to the New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia ports loaded with soft coal from England or Nova Scotia. Then the cotton and cattle ships, returning to the Gulf In cool ballast, would tnke the Mobile, New Orleans, Galveston nnd other coal markets, and with a lower rale of transportation across the Atlan tic than down the Mississippi, thu com paratively underpaid miners In Englam and Wales would cut under the West Pennsylvania and Virginia miners. Th fact of the extensive Influences of bo simple a matter as placing con I on the free list, shows how vastly Increased Is the Importance of the protective principle, as the commercial facilities of the nations are augmented by the prodigious fleets that sweep the sens. With the exception of Bame of the Holland canals, that recently completed to Manchester is the most Important maritime work which capital has ven tured to construct since the completion of the Sue. The Manchester canal cost within $25,000,000 of the sum which would complete the Nicaragua, and yet It is only an approach to an Inland town, while the Nicaragua project would prove a link between two great octmns, save thousands of miles of navigation around the stormiest cape ever known, and would, there Is good reason to be lieve, be the means of eventually giving maritime commercial supremacy to the United States. It Is a mistake to suy that the navies at France and Russia are at thin mo ment superior to that of Great Britain, but the program of the Gaul and Mus oovlte will soon put John Hull In the jdiade unless he bestirs hlnwelf. The total tonnage of England at the close f the year In effective battieidilpa and toast defense vessels Is 441.C40, and the number of ships 1 forty-six. France and Russia together have the same category In tonnage of 270,933, and the number of vessels is thlrty.rfx. Hut after April next France and Russia will have twenty-three vessels of 210,300 tons .building, and the English program of hlpbutldlng Is much less extensive. Hence the navy scare. This haa had I he effect of stimulating the British to tfwwh efforts. England began the eom ct!tlGa ty Mitrliig Hi great in- crease and France and Russia have followed suit, perhaps not cheerfully, but vigorously. Ho the jpuno will KO on while resources hold out, and the tax payer's back Is not positively broken. There are more fighting men and ships in the world today than at any former epoch, and yet the world la at peace. In the French chamber of deputies, the president has a heavy bell fastened on the desk at his right, and he can silence the votes of the most vociferous statesmen by vigorously working the handle. When the bomb exploded the other day, the president, M. Dupuy, whose life had been especially attempt ed, and who was slightly wounded, sat for a moment silent in the smok a terrible clamor in the hall, nearly every body crazy then rang the bell, and in a loud but calm voice said: "aentle men, the session will continue." The panic was over. The New York Sun, In the following few words, strikes a great fact with a dull thud. Referring; to Mr. Cleveland's income tax plan, the Sun says: "Whether a man has a family or not, or people dependent on him or not, the government will get nothing out of him by an Income tax if he haa no Income." The Sun might have added that the Income tax places a premium on fraud and perjury. UNION BIBLE MEETING. New Officers of the Society Elected on Sunday Afternoon. Rev. Daniel Staver presided at the union meeting of the Bible Society ir. the Methodist church on Sunday after noon, and Mr. Lowther officiated at t' organ. The services opened with th singing of a hymn, followed by the reading of the 19th psalm, and prayei by Rev. Staver. A duet, by L. H. Pederson and Mr. Lowther, was then sung.

Any Indiscretion In diet, overfatigue, or cold, brings on a fit of Indigestion, followed by :i head ache, limtlnK two or throe days at a time. I think 1 must have tried over twenty remelles, which were recom mended as certain cures by lovlnir friends, but It was no use. At last 1 thought I would take a simple course of purgation with Hrandreth's I'lllf. For the first week I took two pills every night, then one pill for thirty nlslits: In that time I gained three pounds in weight, and never have had an ache or pain since." Disease in one part of the body will eventually rill the whole body with di sease. Every year or two some part of the system grows weak and begins to decay. Such prt should be removed at once, and new matter be allowed to take Its place. There's no need of cut ting It out with a surgeon's scalpel. Purge away the old, diseased, and worn out parts with Brandredth's Pills. MUSCLE AND VIGOR A DIFFER ENCE. Many muscular men succumb to fa tigues bourn with ease ry persons iui their Inferiors In physical strength. Muscle does not Imply vigor. In fact, It is not difficult of proof that athletes do not live as long nor enjoy as gx,(i health as the average Individual who If vigorous that Is to say, whose diges tion and sleen are unimpaired, whose nerves are tranquil, ami who has no organic tendency to disease, lliuse re qulsites or vigor are conferred upon those inherently weak, no less than upon those debilitated through wasting disease, by a thorough, persistent course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the leading national tonic, indorsed and recommended bv Dhislclans of eminence It will not endow you with the muscle of a Corbet t. but It will infuse energy Into your system, and renew the active and healthful performance or us tunc tions.
