' The fact that New York is played out as the boss state of the democratic par ty has fully made Its appearance In cur rent history, and politicians may govern themselves accordingly. New York' will probably be a republican state after the next election, and the solid south will ride the high horse.' ' ;) -Who ever suggested the name of Pat rick O'Hara for sheriff should be well satisfied with the response of the peo ple. He seems to be the choice of the people, regardless of politics, notwith standing the fact that he is hard-working man and only wears a boiled shirt on Sunday. Budget. The costume Indicated is somewhat scant for the prevailing weather, and even In the heat of summer there are two urgent objections, viz., the flies and the police, . The recent disasters to English and French expeditions in Africa the mas sacre of a pursuing party of English in South Africa, and the overwhelming at' tack upon the French south of Tlmbuc too have disclosed the extent of the In cursions of Europeans In Africa, the last of the continents to be subordinated to civilisation. The energy of the colonists Is very great, and it is remarkable that the French have advanced to the south of the Sahara Desert. It is believed there are resource In Africa for the support of a population equal to that f Asia, ' ' ! ' Congressman Morse, bf Massachusetts, in his speech on the Hawaiian question aaid in the house a few days ago: "1 say to the people of the Sandwich Islands, be of good cn-eer! The people of the United States are misrepresented by Grover Cleveland." This must now be apparent in the islands that are the paradise of the Pacific. People can see now that congress is not going to make war to clear the smoke of conceit from Cleveland's conscience; The democratic party is trying hard to nhirk the whole load of responsibility for th blunders of its leader and his representatives. All the provisional government has to do is to wait for the next administration That will be In favor of annexation. Ia another column will be found the new ordinance regulatiu the sale of liquors within the city limits, to which Mayor Kinney affixed Ms Binntur Thursday. J The measure' i me which cannot but commend itself to every fair-minded man. The City derives much uf its revenue from the saloon-keepers, I. e.. those.of them who ly 'onr for the fxlvtlcge of staling liquor. ,aid who are certainly entitled to alt i)x benefits apixrtalnmg thereto. The jwi-lwu-keepers claim that in UiO cab- c' j OtiKi tluiv, whtra wiat " j uld In violation of the tiMU if r.U J I the letter, of the law, the quantity dis posed of has been greater than the sale at any of the saloons, while all that the storekeepers paid for that privilege was 125. If such a state of facts existed, it certainly seems that the introduction, and prompt passage and approval, of the new ordinance was most opportune. Hon. Blnger Hermenn has been heard from and that emphatically. He does not want governor, but asks to be re turned to congress. Correct; no better endorsement than his acts for four con secutive terms can be asked. There Is now an open field for governor, and the Transcript would rise and present the name of Hon. C. W. Fulton, of Clat sop county, president of the last Oregon senate. No man in the state stands higher in the estimation of the people, and no man would guard more zealously the interests of this commonwealth. If nominated Mr. Fulton would carry Ore gon by 8,000. Valley Transcript. Very true. If Mr. Fulton accepts the nomination for governor, Clatsop county will do her share by giving him a hand some majority. The signs multiply that the Wilson bill as it is, with unimportant amend ments, will become a law before many weeks elapse. The democrats are not particular as to details, but they have made up their minds not to tax sugar and not to add a tax on whiskey, beer, tobacco or coffee to raise revenue, be cause the real democratic anxiety that the income tax must be enacted, Why they do not take the idea of Vice President Stevenson and clap on the war tax that wrested a vast sum from the manufacturers Is a mystery. It is quite true that the country needs "ac tion," as the senators of the finance committee say; but the trouble is It Is announced by every democrat who speaks that the Wilson bill 1b not finality, but one step of a long walk This walk is not In the direction that will bring prosperity to the country. may do some good to end for a time the uncertainties of the changes to be made in the law. The business men of the nation know about what Is to be done, and might as well discount the reformation. There is no use waiting on congress" for prosperity to set in, Now is the time to prosper. Business knows the worst. NOT DISCUSS ELKS' TROUBLES. Grand Exalted Ruler Apperly Said Not to Desire Re-election. Louisville, Feb. 15. Grand Exalted Ruler Apperly refuses to make any statement whatever concerning the re norted troubles among the Elks. It is stated by close friends of Mr.. Apperly that he could not have been animated by a desire for re-election in calling the meeting at Jamestown, N. Y., Instead of Atlantic City. It is not clear how meeting at one place could further such an ambition more than a meeting at the othert but as a matter of foct Mr, Apperly has told his friends positively that he Is not a candidate for re-elec lion. There is really troubio in the Benevo lent and Protective Order of Elks, so Chicago members of the order say. They acknowledge that Allen O. Meyer, ot Cincinnati, the grand secretary of the order, and A. Apperly, of Louisville, the exalted ruU?r, are dissatisfied because there was no likelihood of their being retained In office longer and have suc ceeded In persuading about 30 small lodges in Ohio to send their delegates to a "rump" convention at Jamestown, N.Y. At the last convention in DctrolU It Is said, Meyers and his friends were unfit for business when tho time for select lnr a Place for the next annua) con vention arrived, Therefore the grand trustees were compelled to make the selection, and Atiantio City, N. J., was chosen. When Meyers and W friends understood th situation it was too late to remedy the matur Bave by ovema. in the authority of the grand trustees, with the sanction of Apperly, which Meyers easily obtained.

With head full of records' And pedigrees galore, The "hoBs" editor writ As he'd ne'er writ before. With a two-twenty clip He drove his pen along, And thoughts came untrammeled Like the notes of a song. Absorbed In his theme, The scribe was not aware That a fair, blushing damsel Stood close to his chair; With a step light and airy She'd entered the den Where the "editair" plied Both scissors and pen. With head o'er his shoulder (Let us pardon the pose) She followed his lines, Which were written In prose. No wonder she blushed- No wonder she wlnced- Her modesty was shocked. As you'll all be convinced, For she reads: "Allna P.tlklna la unmistakably a daisy. She is well-bred, and, as to In dividuality, she Is without a peer In all the land. Hpr head la hieh and haughty and her lets are marvels of beauty. She will make It warm for the boys over In Buckhorn township next season. Alice Is the daughter of Billy Bllklns, two In list" " 'Daisy,' is she?" cried the lass In jealous indignation; "Well-bred, proud and haughty The fairest in creation! Legs are marvels, are they? You villain! O, for shame! I hate you as I hate That horrid Bllklns name!" With angry step she turned around, And from the "den" departed. Leaving ye "hoss" editor Aghast and broken-heirted; For in the spring In June, I think He was this maid to wed, And now, alas! her love Is blasted cold and dead. Jasper Henderson, In Horse World.
