J. U. Mitchell baa survived political
calamity in way that few men have
been able in do. In 1815. as republi
can who believed in free ailrer, ha waa
obliged to weather a difficult point and
narrowly escaped political shipwreck.
Hit interpretation 0 the republican
platform in regard to free silver caosed
republicans to look at him somewhat
askance, while he was stumping the
state lor McKinley, while the other side
could not forgive him that he did not
land with the free silver movement.
That he could recover to be elected
senator is proof ol dealerous ability
only in keeping with his record.
Mitchell in an active worker in congresa
and one whose words and actions carry
weight.
The terrible marine disaster by which
the I'aciflc mail sleamer Ko de Janeiro
sank in the Uoldtn (iate and 120 lives
were sacrificed was caosed by "taUnf
chances" a thing which it at.aolatelv
eiiminal when human lives are placed
in jeopardy thereby. The responsibility
for the awful disaster lies between Tap
tain Fred Jor.lon, living pilot and Cap
tain William Ward, the dead mauler ol
the vessel. There it a standing order
issu-d by the company owning this ves
sel never to run in or oat of the harbor
in a lo,-. They had waited all night
and early in the morning the fog lilted
for a little while and they mail ready
to start when the fog settled again.
I'aasengi'rt and crew, having been so
long at tea, were over anxious to get on
shore and the run waa attempted in the
(og, with awlul results. If they bad
waited only two bonrt longer, they
would have had clear tailing.
A movement it on foot to build a
number of bicycle paths from (irants
I'ats to different points ol the county.
Many of the wheelmen are willing to
attitt personally in the labor of con
struction while others will contribute
funds. No appropriation it asked.
Four rightly constructed bicycle paths
leading out ol the town in the several
directions would conduce to itt prosper
ity in a manner little realiwd. 1'atht
could be made which would be In good
condition winter and summer, so that
ordinarily good wheelman could come
to town from any part of the county,
transact a lair amount of business and
go home the same day. Anything
that makes It easier for people to get in
and out of town hell trade and con
duces to the liveliness ol the town in
many ways. The other end of the path
it benefited similarly and in roitortion.
In connection with Ibis subject we are
informed that the wheelmen ol Williams
a're fully determined to have a bicycle
patb to Grants 1'ast and have already
constructed a portion of it. The move
ment it worthy of the heartiest com
mendation and encouragement. The
wty to secure a bicjile path it to go to
work and make it, and not try lo scheme
It into existence.
"John 11. Mitchell was elected United
Rlates Henator at 12:10 this morning.
It was the twenty-filth ballot of the day,
and the sixty-third ol the legislative
session. The result was reached on the
inevitable last ballot, and waa attended
by scenes of supreme uproar and en
thusiasm on the part of the Mitchell
push. The grand coup planned by the
republican minority management was
carried out precisely according to the
programme. There was no hitch or jar
in the progress ol the Mitchell machine
He had put hit dummies forward fur
40 daya, to bo sacrificed in turn, and
then when all were out of the way, he
made hit teclaeular entry and carried
the legialaluro by storm. On the Una)
ballot Mitchell bad ill votes, and Cor
belt !M. The senator received a minority
ol the democratic voles, and these, with
the aecessions from the Corliott lorces
were lufhYieht to elect him." So says
the Salem dispatch to Sunday's Ore
gonian. John II. Mitchell it a man ol
high ability and it probably more ac
ceptable to the citiient of the state than
either ol the other leading candidates,
with the possible eiceptiou ol Hermann

waa interested from tho money centers
and the road wat built and the town
became again the undisputed center ol
trade and the result was the Cincinnati
of today in the state of Ohio.
Grants I'ass today occupies a similar
tiluation. A promising mining district
it being opened in the northern part ( I
Josephine county at lialiee, and in the
southern part of the county at Waldo.
On account of the lack of wagon road and
other lines of transportation tiranls 1'ass
hat enjoyed a rronopoly of this trade in
the past which could go nowhere else.
A gap ol a few milt s only it left be
tween Picket creek and Indian Ferry,
without a wagon road on Hogue river
and leaves 'talice, without any wagon
road on that side of the river, so enter
prising cititent of another point on thr
!i. I. railroad are taking advantage ol
the situation and a wsgon road has been
built and the channel of trade is being
diverted. Another point on the H. I',
railroad, nearer ttill lo (ialice, is not
casting eager eyet towards that profitable
and growing trade and proposes to con
struct a wagon road, again rutting off 001
trade. One merchant there alone offer
to subscribe 1000 to the load. In the
meantime the timber interest of all
