For Wash, Ingtw: Snow, followed by fair In the western and southeastern portions; fair in the northeaster portions; slightly coiner. For Oregon Occasional snow; slightly colder. The czar of RubsIo, has been admon ished by his physicians to live in the Crimea, as the St. . Petersburg climate has too much pneumonia in it. Evident ly his recent Illness was one of severity. The Imperial family . of Russia had winter residence in the Crimea before the . war, which made , that . peninsula memorable. A Paclflo county paper complains bit terly of "a prominent speculator of As torla," and, "an old settler of Wlllapa,' who stopped their papers "without drop- ' ping us a word," and threatens to brine suit for the amount due. Each of the subscribers owes for about five years Prompt collections at tho end of each year would obviate such difficulties at beset the path of the Pacific, count) publisher. The statement is going around that the Solvation Army proposes to court; martial Col. Robert G. Ingersoll for In. fidelity., We do nob find that among the military crimes and misdemeanors; and, anyway, the colonel doesn't hold hit commlBHlon In that particular army. neither Is a prisoner of ' war caught with his uniform Illegally on. There It evidently some misunderstanding as tc his powers and authority on the part of the commanding officer of the Salvation Army, who has ordered the court, ot his ideas are confused as to the art Icier of war and the articles of faith. The president of Hawaii has been In tervlewed by tho Honolulu correspond nt of the Boston Transcript, and states the case of the provisional gv eminent with the greatest clearness and force, thus; "When the queen rebelled against her own government, she abdl cated." That is true, and a complete answer to all that mount, Qresham and Cleveland have had to say. The provi sionals knew there was a question of doubt about getting Into the United State, but that was the preference. They could not think of submitting to the dusky woman who wanted to cut Uielr heads off, even to oblige Mr. Clevc land. A St. Louis doctor has opened a field of enterprise comparatively new and that will be regarded by serious people with minted misgiving and hope. He is said to be fitting up a "Jag" hospital. The institution Is not Intended, as the "gold cure" Is, fr the destruction of the afi-i'.tfl f.r llnunr, Jtlsnot meant to reform chionta cases of drunkenness, hut to treat th Instants of Intoxlra tl vti us they arise. It Is the claim of U.e eminent phytlclaa that he can cure h plain drunk In hulf an hour. Coupes to catch the drunkard in his hilarious wanderings, and baths to open his pores for the escape of alcohol, even clean linen, ars parts of the machinery, , The St.. Louis Globe Democrat says of the scheme: . "The doctor claims that he can take a man that is suffering- in the morning from the effects of a night's hilarity and over-drinking and put him on his feot, without a nervous tremor, all in the courso of twenty to thirty minutes, without the use of any Injuri ous1 decoctions whatever. The doctor also proposes to take In men In the wildest tstagen of intoxication, take care of them when friends find themselves unable to do so, fix them up, send them home, or do anything for" their best Interests.". We do not see In the scheme so far as made, however, Just how to catch tho festive drunkurl ind run him In. A man on a spree, as a rule, does not want to be sobered up In half an hour. How is he to be persuaded to ac cept treatment? Perhaps It is to be matter of compulsory education. Saturday's Evening " Bulk-tin (San Francisco) has the following item news: "It was reported about the new city hall this afternoon that three tax-rolls, one real esca'.j and one personal prop erty, have been token from the tax col lector's office. It is thought that the de flclency of $3,000 tihdor a fonier admlnlS' tration has some connection with their disappearance. The el'lef of police has dotailed a detective to wo-k up the case,',' If the work wan as successfully done as was the stealing of the S90 assess ment roll of this city, the detective will have .but a faint chance of success Should the missing books be found however, it might be well to engage the services of the clwer disciple of Vldocq and have a search instituted for our missing recorls. Watterson has become a happy poll Uclan. He has reached the point where he does not care enough to disturb him what happens. At a St, Paul banquet tho democratic leaders were assembled, nd the Eiieclal spokesman said thn Mr. Cleveland's second administration should have come first, so as to make an end of him. Watterson then got this off: ,"I have reached the height of dem ocratlc philosophy when I don't care a what happens, so It don't hit me, tgree witi Mr. Kelly, however, that Mr. Cleveland's second term should have come first." This is nn Improper reflection on the president very im proper for his first administration was very much like his second one, only he did not fall Into a trap In foreign nf fairs. It is mean and Imprudent Jn denv ocrats to be so hard on tho president during the first year o,f his second term, Watterson, instead of Blount and Willis, should have been sent to Honolulu. "Snow Flake" Flour, claimed to be superior to all others, yet costing no nore than Inferior brands. Ross, lug- jinn & Co,, Sole Agents.

Majority of Thirty-two Votes Favor of the Bond Issue, ir Ono hundred and fourteen cltlzem voteel yesterday to bond the school dls rlet for $12,000, nnd 84 votes were ens' iralnBt the proposition. The fact thai 'ho election was to be held had been nl TioBt forgotten, otherwise there wouh' n all probability have been more nega 'Ive votes. There is considerable di satisfaction over the result, and rumor1 ire afloat that the directors will be en olned. The opposition grows out of th 'act tiiat the amount actually needed b- ho district is somewhere in the neleh Vtrhood of $6,000, and many taxpuyerr object to what they term the policy o' "getting plenty of money when you're -rett.'ng It." At tho recent meeting Ir "edir street school it wns admitted th' tax of 2 1-3 mills would be 8llfl1olen, lo carry the schools along and reduce ho floating debt to the extent of $!. TOO, and It wns supposed that no at 'empt would be made to raise more th"r enough to pay what was actually neces ary. Tho understanding reached b .ween the taxpayers' committee nnd thr directors and citizens wis that the Ing debt should be curried over for the year, and consequently many votes were east against the proposition to raise about double as much money as they claimed was needed. Mr. Patton, of the Astoria Savings bank, stated yesterday that he had re ceived a letter from eastern parties say ing they would take the bonds at per cent,-and In addition would pay all the costs of printing, etc., In connection with the Issue.

The lecture last evening at the Con gregational church was well attended, viw,i with cinso attention by tho ueepiy inicreaifu iuuiem,v. It was upon "Political Economy," and was given as an Introductory view and outline of the science, and with the spe cial purpose of leading up to the discus sion of the labor question this evening. The definition of political economy as the science which deals with the prob lem of gaining a livelihood, and as therefore affecting life and character to much the same degree as religion, and a bird's-eye view of man's primitive condition from the hunting and fishing period through the pastoral, and to the agricultural and manufacturing seat, led the way to a more specific outlining of the subject as a science. With a review of the mercantile theory, which foreshadowed the protec tive policy, and of its antagonistic theory developed by the Physiocrats of France, and elaborated by Adam Smith In his "Wealth of Nations," the lecturer closed the evening's discussion, making all ready for the specific discussion of the labor question. The lecture was preceded by a charm ing duet by children from Cedar street school. OVER AT ILWACCO. From Pacific Journal. Miss Elsie Ward returned from Port land this week. Miss Ida Dalton has been visiting friends at Long Branch this week. B. A. Seaborg and Charles Shubbe are in San Francisco on business. They expect to return next week. James and Henry McGowan passed through town on Tuesday, bound for South Bend to attend court. E. J.

Akers, ot South Bend, Is in town, and will remain for several days, He is on business connected with the organization ot the Masonic lodge at thlu place. The town received another black eye In the superior court. It would seem from such decisions a poison need not obey the town ordinances unless they feel like It, or perhaps Uwaco Is not un der the same laws as the balance of the state. C. D. Rogers and family returned last Saturday from a four months' trip in tho east. Henry McGrotty, who has been B, Wise's right-hand man In the "Farmers' Union" for several months past, has re- sianed his position, and left on Wednes day for his paternal home on Lewis river, where he will spend a few months. He thinks some of going to the Cour d'Alene country this summer. U. S. Commissioner Egbert, of South Bend, announces that when two or more persons, living In the southern portion of the county, wish to file, or if one or more desire to prove up on government land, he will, on reasonable notice, meet ihcm at Morchead & Co.'s store, nt Sea- land, and do their work.
