The house Is in such confusion, Criup cannot leave the chair to go to the sen ate, and the democracy cannot hold quorum. The state of the senate Is more decorous, but the factions are even more extreme than In the house.

Great men of the democratic party are soVa-ce in the house that Mr. Crisp could not get the consent of his already demorallied friends to go to the senate. It is really a sad state of things. The mugwump theory has been until very recently that the Biitlsh would never, no, never, have anything to do with Hawaii. What! The British so modest about land getting? Care for the finest group of Islands in the Pa cific, half way between British Colum bia and Australia! Impossible! Now It seems the Canadians may be put for ward to re-establish royalty, as we have failed in that enterprise, and our state department Is in a slate of delicacy. We fear some of the gentlemen who are providing the news of continental Europe for Great Britain and the United States are more familiar thnr they should be with the royalties. Re cently ai prlvato conversation of the king of Denmark was reported, and the king spoke very freely of "my son-in-law, the car," and told that the hus band of his daughter wanted to reduce the Russian army, but young William of Germany, thought he had a career before him. This matter, we see, hai been referred to In parliament. Repre sentatives of the presa should not take advantage of their familiar acquaint ance with the royalties. senate out to meet it.

NORTH WEST NOTES. Mrs. Ella Hlgglnsou, formerly of La Grande, has won a prize of $500 offered by a Boston publishing house for the best short story. Oregon is In it in a good many ways. At a meeting of the Multnomah Ty pographical Union, held in Portland last Sjndny, the name of Willis Dunl- way was proposed for endorsement for slate printer, which was voted down. The union declared that It was not ad visable to endorse any member for pos itions. Frank Manning, who lives on Rogue river, concluded the other day to drain small hike which lay above his land There was only a narrow ridge inter- An intelligent and honest man to make, t liil:-i:i:r.D want to r.ec. When told that Infidelity has no system of its own he replies, "Had not the ancient Greeks a system? I answer, yes. Hut tne ancient Greeks were not Infidels. They had lords and gods many. They had 30,000 gods In Athens alone, and had an altar built to an unknown god for fear pome of their gods might be missed He says, "The reign of terror In France was on more infidelity at its best than the Spanish Inquisition was Christianity at Its best." In reply would say that the ablest Intellects of France were In the movement that brought about the Reign of Terror. It never had such unity of Intelligence to try It either before or since; and, as Dr. Bushong says, It was at Its best then, so far as Intellect and advantages are concerned It had. the "best brain" but not the best heart" or affections of Its time, Yet history records the result and Its cause, which the world must accept. Will any sane person say the same, of the Spanish Incjuisition? Will any sane person say that It Is the teachings of Christianity, Christ, or his apostles? The new testament Is the system thnt Chris tluns defend. The fruits of a Christian life are love, Joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, meekness, faithfulness and charity, and I defy any one to bring forward a text, sentence, word, or syl lable from, the new testament that teaches anything like the practices of the Inquisition. We stand by the book, nob by any corruptions of it. To what Mr. Lund says of Voltaire, and others In trying to cover Dr. Bushong's state' ments with a cloud of dust. I reply that the doctor simply stated a few facts that Mr. Lund will not deny In plain terms, only by Insinuations. An other remarkable statement Is that "churches build hospitals and colleges for pecuniary purposes." K this means to make money out of them, I simply regard it as a wonderful statement for veiling between the body of wnter and his field, and he cut a ditch through It. The force of the water was much greater Mian he calculated on, and there is now a channel ubout 40 feet deep and 60 feet wide through the best purl of his farm, and the lower part la covered with debris. Some potatoes which he left In the ground are now burled about flva feet deep. Mr. Gor don's land, lying below, was also dan aged lo aomo extent The Coxey army Is growing slowly. The most serious aspect of the case is the fact that the trampa all over the country are shambling toward Wash Ington. The conduct of the democratic congress Is so imbecile that the tramps expect to figure as representatives of the publla impoverishment and perplex ity. The people along the roads are dis poned to take this view of the cafce. The democrats and po are of Coxey'a mind about paper money, and the republicans do not few responsible for the state of of the country. The prodigious publicity given the or ganisation of a force In Ohio march on Washington la due to the under standing that the crusade le significant of the Incomtieteney of those In charge tt the government; that it Is, after Ml, an expression of publto sentiment that cannot be made Just now executive by voting. The result Is not wholly the Washington march." There Is a concen tration of tramps In the towns, and within a few weeks herds of them may lo expected.

Nearly alt the democratic states are UKuinui Mr. Cleveland on the question of his veto, and he Is deeply concerned, k. thmt ha Utcuiitat open and tirrl uiss that the silver men will Insist on the piveKleiiec of free Kllver over free Sir Walter Raleigh was an unprinci pled adventurer and failed as an ad ministrator and coloniser, but he had a moat commendable taste for planting and gardening, and In these branches of effort his Influence remains potent., Three hundred years have passed since he lived In Ireland, In the county of Cork on the vast estate which had been bestowed upon him, but tht yellow wall flowers which he brought to Ireland from the Aores still nourish and bloom In the very spot where ht planted them. Near by, at Youghal, near Cork. or. the shores of the Blackwater estuary, stands the Attune cherry which hi planted. Some cedars which ho brought to Cork are still growing at a ptaci called Tlvoll.

Raleigh tried to make tobacco grow In Great Britain, but tho climate was not found suitable to it.

Some roots from his vines he gave tr t know of no hospital that pays any- hlng but a "Dutch dividend" or costs more than its receipts, neither does Mr. Lund. There Is no college that either Mr. Lund or myself knows anything about, thnt Is not In the same fix as he hospitals. If the statement means to spe'ld the surplus on, It certainly Is x good way, but even Mr. Lund wouldn't say this. The church being governed by the teachings of Christ and his apostles, builds these institutions to conform to Christian living. If Mr. Lund will read the new testament care fully through once, he will eee the rva ?ons for those works, or If he has not time to read it all, he can find enough for this purpose In Uie sermon on the mount, which Is the fifth, sixth, and seventh chapters of Matthew, He will ilso find a lesson there on humanity that will help him. Ncne of the de bates micni skeptics ever want, to affirm any proposition. They will deny my proposition that a Christian will 1 llflrm In order to get something to iy, but they should do constructive md not destructive work. All of Mr. Lund's statements are on a par with those I have examined, and are not .vorthy of any serious consideration. H. V " We always fry our? it) Cottoleix."
