A litlle mining excitement of our own, ovrji!W at lUkei il. tue owner of Elk Creek itiacer mine took to Baker city thi week a par tial clean-up that weighed fHKX), Kuggft a large m hen' egg were in the aack. W. J. Bryan in that imrt of hi (IicIh iM'twi-eu The Ihillen and Kill Lake City, staled a an axiom tic truth th.it the "dollar of a high purchasing power are good only In the hand of thoee who have got the dollar." It Meemxto the Isdki-KN dent thnt oiuething like thit ha Ix-eri heard before. Hon. T. T. Geer having heard the tateinent from the liiia of the "MtateHtuan" hiinaelf Ik led to remark that Just what value i to attet'h to a dollar of low purchas ing power when a man hasn't got it ha not been explained. The work done In the Houae lilil Monday dhow where the olmtruc tioniHt are. The tariff bill wa re ported from the conference committee when Congreanman Dingley explain el the change made to the original House hill. A aecond republittui aummed up the argument made by the oppoaition. Then the vote was taken. But before this wa done, 10 democrat and one populists ttpoke againat the bill. But the mind of -ongreHinen were fixed and the final vote Htood, aye 185 and Jiays 118. Of the 185 aye, 180 were republican and 5 democrat. Of the 118 nays 106 were democrat and 12 opulit. The prompt action ahowa how valu able I a good working majority of republicans. As heretofore atated the Clondyke mining district 1 on the boundary line between United State and Do iniulon of Canada. The two nations have not' heretofore been able to fix the line and now that the gold field have been found, the taak will be more vexations than ever. The U. 8. Senate haa Instructed it foreign relations committee to report at once a treaty lor determining the Ixiun dary line between Alaska and Can ada. Some even go bo far a to aaaert that complication will ari.se precip itating hostilities. The good seuae of the two nations will not however allow ao sordid an element as gold to precipitate war. The slicing on to one or the other of the peoples a atrip of fror.cn gold bearing gravel la not an insult that requires a blood cleansing. The Cloundyke mines wa the' topic in a street conversation thi week betweeu sound money man and aallverlte. Hound money called attention to the report and asked if he had heard of the strike. "No." A paragraph wa read to htm. "Well well, I should like to go there, but it take so much money to get start ed. I fear I could uot raise it." "Why don't you go to the silver mines of Montana? They are not so far away and expen will not be so great." "Oh. silver I not worth so much as gold. Hold i better." "Well it ha taken you an everlasting long time to find that out. How do you reconcile that with your statements of a few minutes ago?" "I admit that It does not Just fit in but then tjiat was politic." "Yes, free silver politics." They held a commercial coure out at Stlt Lake last week that was composed ol delegate from Colorado, I'tah, Idaho, Montana, Washington ami On iron. Hon. T. T. Greer of Marion county wa one represent live. All who heard Greer lust fall kuow him a a sound money man. Well, till twit Lake congrts wss to be nonpartisan but wa to consider commercial questions as business men, but the delegates with the pres ident, W.J. Bryan, at their head switched off on free silver coinage, The convention went wild, and the handful of sound money men were not able to hold siWeritee to the ad vertised purpose of the convention. Greer tell of hi experience in thee charicteristic words: "The vote wa reached and when Oregon was railed the writer of these lines announced that he had never been a member of a populist convention in hi ow n state, and had not traveled 1000 miles to cast a vote In one here, and was proceeding to make another remark when the convention howled him down, and his excellency, the presi ding efficer, sided in with the mob, and the vote proceeded. Thi did not at all make the Oregon delegate popular with the majority ol the con vention but contributed grea.ly to his peace of mind and tranquility cf conscience." 1 OtVP SEAL HERD. When we got Aa-L iu ls7, our cuttrruilig Uierc!i4UU looted into ihevaiueof the country- toon the Worth 01 rtMj acal iieid realiz!. Our government saw the necessity of protecting the seal to prevent ex termination. A monopoly w.i giv eu to a company with eriiiisrlou to kill a restricted uuiuber at a certain place remote from tbe breeding ground. Thi care insured the in dustry indefinitely. The profit ol the fishery iuduced poaching and F-ugiinh waling schooner patrolled Uehriug ea, killing every seal that poked his nose out of water for air. These floating hunter found that :hay could gather ijuite a fiisi a the hunters at the r'sjkerii-s. Bui they killed everything. Xoeiecilon wa made. . Extermination whs only a matter of a few years. A sour of American wealth wa threatened. Our government represented the tact to the British government and while the equity of the American poriitioQ has I wen acknowledged with the mouth, the spirit ha been denied. U.ilUli cupidity use every subterfuge to evade what they admit i our ritfht. Trtey !ji! thstt ta: y have no right to laud on our Islami to take eal They admit that they liaveuo riifht to fish within three mile of our co tsls. They admit that U kill the female seal during the breeding season tetiils to exterminate the herd. While tney do not go ou our island-, or 11 li ui'lun llf thrtf mile limit, they kill seals. Thi disregard of our Just right seem to eiteud not only to the fih erment, but to the statesmen and even to the scientists whom every oue would siipjawe would seek truth though the fact should be op posed to the British contention. After the term of Hie treaty of I'ari had been put in operation, our government noticed that our herd wa uot fully protected at all. We suHplcloned that seal went luriner than three mile from la:id. Some American sealer said they went Any. To la? fair the Washington authority piopoaed that a mixed commission! of naturalists be appointed and char ged with the duty of studying and reporting upon the habit of seal life. We wanted to know how far the dams go from land when feeding and if killed In ocean wh it becomes of the pup It-ft on shore. Now comes the strange story not to use a harsher term. The American expert found that the dam went far out to sea, that they were killed and that their pup perished by starvation ou the breeding ground. Theexa.rt rec- omended that the ocean sealer be prohibited from killing the dams. One would think that English natur alist would find the same fact that American found, but no, they evi dently did not seek truth but ome excuse for permitting Canadians poaching to continue their questiona ble occupation. The English experts found that seal go far out to sea but that there wa no way to prevent sealer from killing female seal or punish them after the seals were killed, since all seal skius when suit ed look alike except the skin of the old bulls which are known by (he caorse main. The English extierts admit that the pup erish ou the land but claim that sand storms over whelm them and not famine. But they lKise sight of the fact that young seal lived through puppy hood on those same islands thousand of year ago and that sand storm raged there as now. It really seems a though they want no knowledge of seal life if it i to interfere with greed. The English government exhibits it selfish disregard of the" right of others. Will anything but sharp biting force, establish equity in this matter? A UiMlt 11 A LAM E.

Manager lhslge of the Hio tfrtnd Western IU II road in a circu lar commending the faithful and ef- ti.'ient service of Itsrniployees during j the week the Christian Endeavor ex- cursion wss transported over thiet rtatd, states that the number of pa- sengers carrie.1 was 17,KHI. This is j wonderful record aud ia a working experiment of what can be done in time of war. We have five continen tal raids either one of which can car ry as many soldiers In the same length of time. No F.urosyan or Asiatic government or the two com bined could make aa attack upon us with anything like Mich a f . Transwiru vu;i 1 H average one a thHiJud-Mieu ami to match one rail - rod will require 16 aim atd to match our five will require 85 ship. Our car do uol have to carry com missary store for we have bread and beef everywhere. The foreign ship would be from 1) to 25 da) ou the trip, our car five day. Auing such a fleet of transport our' cruisers would haveaoiue amu-suient too. The nations of the world realise these things aud they will uot hastily at tack ut Our preparation for audi emergencies gives u peace. Napoleon sold LouUuna because he could uot defend if.

From our Orcion deleimte well a iroin those of the east, th.- west, the north and the south, from those w ho have attended every gathering of the En deavor clan sln 1881. eome one voice "and one sentiment, "this is (he best ciinveioioii e ever hcM The welcome aiitirded the Endeavor- cr was characterize)! by the priMligal ity, the lavishnms and the large- IrVartednmsof the Ciliforoiuu. Ev erything wa done that ingenuity, genuiue hospitality aud abundance of mean could think of to render the stay of the Endeavor army pleasant and agreeable, trom the governor of the state down to the street arab consideration for the Emleavorer was shown aud the deepest desire manifested to leave upon their mind an excellent impression; aud Ihey suc ceeded. From "Father Endeavor" Clarke down to the smallest little jun ior that participated in the famous Junior rally comes the word, "Good bye, San Francisco. You have treated u nobly, generously, magnificently. May God bless jou abundantly!" Thi great gathering of about forty thousaud of the follower of the con quering Naaarene, In the city of the Golden West I truly significant. I. San Francisco stands primarily for material proserity and development. Since the magic period of '49 weasso elate with the city by the golden gale I'he idea of gold yellow, dull, fasci nating, but earthly gold.a But here this year 1 held an assembly that points to a power far more potent than gold love. It wa said on var ious side ('this Is a revelation, this open our eye." 1 lie fact wa forci bly aud impresively brought out that C hristianity means a p silive force that afiit'ts life uow, making It sweet er, whotetximer aud infinitely more graciou. It wa a moral tonic to confront a material view of life with that conception of it which I ex pressed in Dr. Chalmer's magnificent words, "the expulsive power of a new affection.'' II. The influence of the gathering upon the d( nomiimtioualism ol the country I bound to be deep. Thi influence will be radically liberali zing in it character. I Here were represented at least forty sect of Christians dwelling together in peace aud harmony. It i prophetic of better limes coining. Follower of Christ are not going to be tragically disturbed over the question whether they are of John Calvin or of John Wesley, whether the symbol of bap tism ha been forty drop or a river of water, or whether it is legitimate according to the Christian law of life, to have two or only one row of buttou ou one' coat. Those and like ques tion are in process of being relegated to the consideration of dogmatic fos silized, auil-deluvian, wornout fac tor of civilization. The coming army will l, aud is, profoundly in lereled ill the inception of the Divine into human life, rescuing It from all forms of delwing s'ns, and placing it upon a shining plain of righteous ness and truth.

Mr. lXtniei Guggenheim declined to give in full detuil the rousons for hi faitli for higher value for silver. There are well-informed men who look upon the reported discoveries a exaggerated.

There are a great many Inquires alKtut the Yukon river nowaday; hut there is very little information to bu tiblained in regard lo it. It is clititned that the Yukon la the Hfth river In piint of size la the United States, being 2044 miles In length. For its entire course through Amer ican territory it Is navigable for 1-teniu bouts, hut as to how large boats csiistfely navigate the liver, I ul little is known. The first obstruc tion to navigation is at O rand Canyon ln(i6 miles from the mouth; hut it Is understood that small steamers 01 n betcol over these rapids. Lieutenant Fred .Schwatka, the Artie explorer, explored the Yukon in 1381, before he resigned. Ttiere are not, as far as can be learned, any charts of the river or the entrance, or rathera delta, though which are several channel-, but noue navigable for deep-sea vessels. .Some claim that there is plenty of water inside for veteu'ls of conxiderahle draught. If the gold mines there last for any length of time, there will he plenty of information about the Yukon iu a yenr or two. In the mean time, but few have any thought of going to Clondyke by water.

The coal miners' strike has brought lo the public attention some interest ing and important facts as to the effect of the Wilson tariff law upon this industry, and upon the miner, themselves. The Wilson lawreducid the rates of duty on coal from 73 per ton to 40 cents per ton. Tills Is Just als.ut the amount ot reduction in miners' wage, of which com plaint is now being made and "em phasized by the strike announced for July 4th. President Hatch ford ol the United Mine Workers' Associa tion in a communication to the "New York Ilerahl," indicates that the wages of miners have been reduced since 1893 an average of 30 oeuts r ton, which is Just about the amount of the rederrtion in duties made by the Wilson law. Curiously this re duction in wages is thus coincident aa to time and amount with the re duction in wages was a direct result of the tariff is, however, accur ately shown in auoth'T and equally striking aeries of acts. Prior to the enactment of the Wilson law, the eastern cities and manufacturing estithli-bment were supplied with cm I largely from the Virginia and west Virginia unties. As soon as Wilntin law was enacted, however, coal from ova Scotia invaded the easteru market, driving out the I Virginia and West Virginia product j result was that their coal went west instead of east as it formermly had .done, and with reduced railroad ! rales was laid down in the markets of Cincinnati, Chicago slid oilier western cities at such low rates thai acoalwar followed by a railroad rate war, was precipitsted. The natural result of this and the redue. lion In the wages of coal miners, all of which is thus clearly tr-nli" to the Wilson la and its reduction In duties on cohi.
