Local weather' for the twenty-four hours ending at 5 p. m. yesterday, fur nished by the U. 8. Department of Ag rlcullure weather bureau. Maximum temperature,- 43 degrees. Minimum temperature, 87 degrees. Precipitation, .49 Inch. Total precipitation from July 1st, 189! to date, 53.66 Inches. ' Excess of precipitation from July 1st, 1893 to date, 14.32 Inches. TODAY'S WEATHER. Portland, warmer. Jan. 17. Forecast: Rain, It Is a curious and provoking fact that political economy takes no account of Buch a condition of things as la now presented in the United States. That la to say, It assumes that there la al ways a chance for Industry and per severance to achieve some measure of success, and that failures are primarily attributable to want of personal en ergy and application, But experience teaches that this is not true. We have direct and absolute proof that the op portunities of prosperity disappear at times, and willing and capable men are thrown out of work by thousands, with no power In themselves to utilize their labor. Energy counts for nothing when the facilities for its profitable exertion are withdrawnr The rivers emptying themselves Into Chesapeake Bay from Maryland and Virginia, ; remarkB an' exchange, com monly have Indian names with a pecu liarly sharp, metalllo ring in tiielr syl lables, as Choptank, Pocomoke, Rappv hannock, Plankatank, Nantlcoke. The rivers flowing westward In Virginia, however, have softly musical names, at Kanawha,' Ohio, Monongahela, Yough logheny. The moat musically named ol all rivers, however, " the Shenandoah, belongs' to the Atlantic coast system at a tributary of the Potomac. It Is prob able that the Eastern exchanges never heard of the W'alluskI, Nehalem, Klas kanlne, 6r Cowlits rivers. Several people in Colorado who have been telling the world they were total ly ruined, have come to the conclusion that it Is not worth while to wait for the free coinage of silver before going about theliu ffalrs. Silver sticks at. about the samo old market price, and would not go higher If the coinage were free. Oold mines are In course of development, and the outlook Is cheerful. The resources of Colorado In rlehea of the soil as well as of the mountains, are so great that despon dency would be wicked. Titers is something In the nature of VcbeJllon ,1n Ireland! . over the slow movements of the English liberals In giving up Ireland to Mr. Gladstone's Irish. The representatives U parlia ment of Ireland want what they call administrative reform In return for the maJorlUea they have given - and can withhold from the Gladstone govern ment. The weather la making a desperate effort to be stormya real, hard snow storm U what it seems dcslrou of producing, but the flukes are not very lorm Is what it seems desirous of pn-4m-4ng. It raises the hopes of the small 1m who has visions of sledding and ltlghing and sliding, only to dash i Win aa with a wet blanket, thereby turning kerin (disappointment In Mb e'lgvr mind. It l ?1! wrong-, of course, but as the weather "does not come uii.Wr lit iurtiuUi'tttw of th purveyor c,f youthful amurwtnonU). ther 1 noth- Ing to do but grin arid boar It. It will provo excellent discipline for the youth fut mind, and a well-dlselpllned mind Is a good thing for the future man of affairs to have. ' Congressman Wilson, in showing the great reduction which the Harrison ad ministration made In the public debt, paid a tribute to that regime which was all the more effective because It was not Intentional. Harrison did grand work, Indeed, In the way of debt pay ing. That Is the right way to deal with the surplus. ; Mr. Smalley, of the New York Trib une, puts the London panic about snow and cold beautifully In these few words: "The thermometer has actually gone down to within ten degrees of iero, and yesterday London was entombed beneath two Inches of snow." It is suggested that inasmuch as we have received most of the news , from Honolulu through British sources, th cost of the coat used in rushing the revenue cutters between San Francisco and the Islands, be taken out of Queen Lll's pension. KNAPPA HAPPENINGS. A correspondent at Knappa sends In the following: Knappa, Jan. 16, 1894. Many complaints are heard here about the manner In which the mall Is car rled and the delay In delivery conse quent thereon. The people think it should be carried by the Bteamer Mi' ler, as at present we are compelled to await a couple of hours after the arriv al of the regular mall boat before we can receive our letters and papers. F, R. Coe, who has been seriously Hi with la grippe, Is recovering. Rev. Graham preached twice on Sun day last at the school house. Miss Mary McCuIlough, Is visiting her sister, Mrs. M. Flynn. Miss Birdie Coe Is visiting fiends at Bear Creek, preparatory to leaving for Damascus, Oregon, where she expectt. to reside : permanently. The prize winners at the recent school I exhibition were Samuel Coffey, Carl Fisher, Roy Olsen, Sherman Coffey, Vcltor Olsen, Ada Coe, Carrie Olsen, and Jake Coe. IT WAS THE WIND. The Alleged Tampering With the Fire Alarm BoxeB. . Astoria, Jan. 1G, 1891. Editor Astorlan: In answer to an article In today' Budget headed "Who Is Responsible?' I beg leave to state, first, that no party or parties "have in any way meddled with any box or any part of the sys tem. Repairs have been made to the system by putting in what Is known at fuse wire, which la to save the gong and boxes from( burning! out when crossed by a strong, current such at. passes through an electric light or street railroad wire. Accidents of this char acter have happened at different times. It is the duty of the chief enslneer to personally examine the system and as certain that It la in working condition. As to the strong current on Saturday night, I will explain a follows: In the itorm on Friday night an arm holding the electric lamp Just above the car stable gave way. The next clay me iamp was hung on the pole, and the loop of the wire laid against our wire. fhere being no current on the electric lght wire at the time, of course it was not felt in our wire. At vi ociock Saturday I rang the usual taps, and the Bame came In all right In each en gine house, showing our wire was all O. K. That evening when the electric current was turned on it burned the Insulation of the wire and charged oui wire. As Boon ta I found It put, I im mediately proceeded to cut out, with the assistance of J. R. Clinton, electrician, the boxes and gongs, knowing that h waa Impossible to find out the. trouble In the darkness and rain. On Sunila morning I went over the line, ascertain ed the cause, and notified Mr. Trunin ger. Who made the necessary repairs. 1 wish to ay the present electrician, Mr. J. R. Clinton, is an experienced man he having served aa manager of the telephone company for a number of years, and having been electrician in the department for two years. I think the Budget must have been misinform ed In regard to tho way the strong current came to the engine house. There waa no secret about it. It haa been common talk on the at reel f'r the last two or three days. It was no fault of either J. R. Clinton or myself that the wind blew and caused the electric wire to fall aeraw the department wire, and therefore I do not think I should be blamed.
