Some of the papers are making much fun ove.1 Breckenrldge's public conic slon of penitence, and his restoration to standing In the Presbyterian church of his native city. They pivfess to see li this '.a political scheme to IHp Mr Kre.-kcnr'ldtre lit his candidacy for con gress, and charge that It waa Intended to relievo members of that church whi . happen to voto for him next fall from the npiK-aranco Gf Inconsistency, and the load of a troubled conscience. In such a charge there Is gross Injustice to the church, and perhaps to Mr. Breckenridge, nnd It Is carrying cither political or social prejudice entirely toe far to suit tho taste of all fair-minded people. What are churches for, but to lecelve and encourage penitent sud re formed slnners7 Tho church has noth Ing to do with the sincerity of Mr Brokenridge'a profesidons; It la enough that he says ho is penitent and piayp for forgiveness. On thla alone he Into tho right to claim, and claiming, ti receive, the fellowship of all Christian people. The question of his sincerity the church cannot, dare nott determine. That la a matter between Mr. Rreckcn- rldgo and his Maker. If this be not true, then Binvly the churches do not follow tho Icbmoiis of the Master on the duty of Chrirttlnn charity nnd forgive ness - It Is recalled that from the beginning to the end of tho Harrison administra tion there was not one charge of any conscquctH'0 affecting the Integrity of any officer connected with the govern ment, or any member of the senate, circulated In Washington or printed In the public press, while under the pres ent reform admlnUu-atlon hurdly a day elapses when some fresh evidence of corruption la not discovered at the cap ital, and telegraphed all over the coun try by the newspaper correspondents. It will be observed. Uxy that none of these charges are put In circulation by Republicans; they all seem tu emanata from Independent or Democratic sources. The following- from" a leading Independent eastern paper will rrv to Illustrate the kind of talk heard on all "Idea: "A sensational aurprlse Is brewing fur the senate. Some of those who have they were when the session began Names, 'dates and accounts are prom Ised soon, with all the circumstances." Some of the county candidates now undergoing the process of bleeding, so familiar In. campaigns of yore, should remember that the day has passed when a gang of toughs can be bought for drink and marched, like a herd of cat tl tn the nolle and "voted." Even if the so-called workers can get them to the polls, a man who can be bought for a. drink or a dollar cannot possibly be trusted. When he goes Into a booth, the chances are he will laugh In his Bleeve and vote as he pleases.' The Australian system makes that possible, and with Its coming there Is a dawn of purer politics. Hon. R. G. Horr will speak tonight, at Fisher's hall, on the political Issues of the day. No man, It matters not how much he may feel he differs from Judge Horr's Ideas of public policy, can afford to miss this opportunity to hear one of the Republican party's greatest expon ents. There will be a good attendance of all classes of citizens, and the com mlttee should see that all gentlemen' in attendance, of known contrary political tenets, have every opportunity to see and hear the speaker to the best ad vantage. ' Mr. Collier's article on "English and American. Home-Life," In the May Forum, Is not only a pleasant descrip tion of the differences between our habits In this matter nnd the habits of the English, but Iti strikes a great deal deeper, showing, for instance, the very Important part that recreation plays In English life, and how the home-loving peculiarity of the race la one of the forces that has made It dominant In the world. Whoever heard of four hundred chunges In a revenue1 bill after It had duly passed a Republican house, and before It was even reported to a Repub lican senate? No one, It muy be said, and (allowing the grammar) they never will. The chamber of commence ought to Induce Secretary Herbert to visit As torla before he returns east. He will ar rive In San Frunclsco this morning, anil should be bended off before he reaches Portland. The report of the superintendent of Immigration shows that during the first three months of this year 17,787 less emigrant!! entered the iort of New York than during the. same ierlod of 1893. There Is a fresh, and Inexplicable discussion of the woman suffrage ques- tlon going on all over the east. It will arrive on the Coast within the usual schedule time. COSTLY EXPERIMENT. "I am afraid, after nil tho millions that have been spent upon It, that the Manchester ship canal will never pay expenses," sail Percy Oglethrope, an English cotton buyer, at the Southern. The opening of the canal on January 1 was a big affair, and one of the ships In the procession that day was a cotton carrier, the Ohio, from New Orleans. Several ships, loaded at Mobile, New Orleans and Galveston, with cargoes for Manchester direct, have made the trip since, and as Manchester and vicinity uses the largest porUon of American cotton, the opening of the canal was an affair of considerable Interest to the cotton states. Tho canal Is wider than the 8uea canal, and when dredged out will have a depth or 2G feet; neverthe less, It will never bo navigable, with Its present dimensions, for large trading steamers. The Sues canal has neither current nor wind to disturb U. heno steamers con safety navigate It which could not safely traverse the English canal, because, with their length and alio, they would have to acquire a speed to give them steerage way In compatible with safe navigation. This fact seems to have been oerlooked alike by the engineers and the enthusi astic promoters cf the enterprise. It Is true that small steamers 'tramps' they are called con make the trip all right. Such boats are the Ohio and the Ven ango, which latter boat recently carried a cargo of cotton from Galveston. But It took the Venango II days to make a trip which a. regular liner would liavr made In 18 days, and, of course, time la a valuable factor to consider. The tramp would never do for the Indian or Pacific? trade, and. besides, the In surance ratos on them are so much higher that It would equalise the dif ference In freight rates by reshlpplng at Liverpool. Anyhr nMectUMi is that steamers cannot procure cargo ballast at Manchester, and have to procure It at A STRANGE CRAFT. Count Festetlcs de Tolna is to hav rival In the trade of the south seas, if the story of the object of the cruise of the schooner Kusslloff, as told by her captain, F. Vchling, Is true. The schooner Balled today for a supposed port called Guam, which means In the parlance of the seas anywhere that for tune takes the ship. She went out through the Heads in the tow of a naph tha launch, and when outside the bar headed away for the south. Before sail Ing Capt. Vehling said that he was bound on a cruise among the Islands of the Pacific and when he said It sea faring men laughed as they looked at his vessel.' Tho Kusslloff Is only 15 tons register, and she would not be able to carry sufficient goods to make a trading trip profitable, even If she should not bring up at the bottom of the ocean. Tho vessel was formerly a small steam er, built and used as a tender among tha fishing boats of Alaska. When her usefulness there was ended she wns blown up on the shore In a gale and VehllriK became the possessor of the wreck for a few dollars, because she was net considered worth patching up. Vehling trimmed up the old hull, tore out tho machinery and rigged her as a schooner. Shortly afterward he and the ship disappeared from Alaska, and a few months later he came Into this port alone in his ship. He said that he had hired a man to come down on the ves sel as the crew, but the night before he was to leave the man was ashore and In a storm that came up that night he was blown out to sea. He was without any aids to navigation except the face of a clock, which he made serve as a compass and sextant, and In due time reached his destination. On the pres ent cruise of the Kusslloff the captain his wife and three children and one man constitute the crew. The small hold Is claimed to be full of trading supplies, and Cnpt. Vehling said he would not come back until he made a fortune and run Count Festetlcs out of the bimlness. Examiner. FISHER BROS., JSfyp Chandlers HEAVY AND SHELF HARDWARE.

EXPENSIVE (ECONOMY. Some people begrudge the little money that an Alllcock's Porous Plaster costs. and then when they are racked with pain from a lame back, or from the soreness arising from a cold, they will spend any amount of money to relieve the pnln. If they only had one of those world-renowned plasters on hand they would le saved a vast amount of suffer ing and be considerably richer. At the first sign of stiffness of the joints apply one of these plasters without any delay. The soreness will be greatly relieved at once and soon disappear entirely. It will be money saved to have them on hand, to say nothing of the comfort they bring. Urandreurs puis contain no irritat ing matter. DECORATION DAY. Astoria, Or., April 30, 1E94.

The discovery of this product, and the demonstration of its remarkable qualities, has attracted the widest interest. Hitherto the common shortening has been lard, or indifferent butter. Every one has probably suffered occasional dis comfort from lard-cooked food ; while it is well known that thous and? arc obliged to abstain entire ly fron everything of that kind. To such Deoplc, Cottolese is of peculiar vai t, widening as it does, the inge of what may be eaten and enjoyed. Cottolene is a cooking marvel. It combines with the food imparts to it a tempting color, a delicate flavor, and an appetizing crispness. No trace of greasiness remains to offend the tastcr disturb the digestion.
