And to such men as these, politi cians have thrown sops in exchange for their votes for years past. The country has been ruled by them. It is time the pension robbery should quit and the honest old sol dier should be the first to meet the duty in defense of the country and his own rights. The most effective way of purg ing the pension list of frauds and cheats is for congress to provide for the publication of a list of pension ers in. each county, in the most widely-circulated newspaper in that county. Together with the name of the pensioner should be given the disability upon which the pension was granted and the amount paid. We are confident that the mere passage of such a law by congress would cause the striking or withdrawal of thousands of names from the pension list be fore publication could be made. Swindlers should be made to feel the heavy hand of the law. New York Sun. We are indebted to Hon. J. R. Ralston for the following interest ing intelligence: It is not generally known that there positively exists a marked boundary line between Canada and the United States. Most people suppose the line to be 'imaginary." But the fact is, the boundary is distinctly marked from Lake Michigan to the Pacific by cairns, pillars of iron, earth mounds and timber clearings. There are about 400 of these marks between the Lake of the Woods and the foot of the Rocky Mountains. The Brit ish have placed one post every two miles and the United States have alternated between each of the Brit ish posts. The post 8 are made of cast-iron, and on their faces are the words: "Convention of London, October 20, 1818." Where the line crosses through lakes, small moun tains of stones have been built, ris ing eight or ten feet above the level of high water mark. In the for ests, the line is defined by felling trees, making a clearing for a space of a rod wide. hill hna nncniin hith hrmcoa nnH 1 , , . ,, .j . been sent to the president, provid- ing that all filings and proofs can bQ made before Commissioners of the U. S. circuit court and county clerks and county judges, under the Act of June 3, 1878, for the sale of lands more valuable for timber and stone than for agricultural pur poses. This will be a great conve nience for person taking lands un der this act, as heretofore it was necessary to go to The Dalles land office to file, and subsequently take their witnesses there also to prove up. The price of timber or stone land is $2.50 per acre. Residence and improvements are not necessa ry in order to make proof. Simply file, and the advertising then com mences for proof, i which must be made and money paid at same time according to date of notice, after the ten weeks and not less than ninety days from filing. The Astorian is the firtt. and as yet the only paper west of St. Paul, to use a type-setting machine. The type-setter, manipulated by intelli gence brick of it, of course, does the on ( ire composing work of the pa- -Vj.OOD emu per day. , in BE A There is no questioning the fact that the inevitable destiny of Can- ; aila is annexation to the U. S. -, . . . How soon tho time will come we cannot say, but it is already a live janj burning question in Canada, and sentiment favortible to it is favorable growing constantly and rapidly. The press of the dominiou is dis cussing the question with great freedom, and it is only necessary to glance over the columns of the Can- public mind. In a sentimental sense, Canada 0 K lis abolutely loyal to England, yet Salisbury confessed, it is hopeless now to attempt it. The Buffalo Express says: "Ca nadian annexationists should re member one thing, however. So long as there is an element in their country which is intensely hostile to the United States, this country will not admit Canada. If they are ever going to join their fortunes with ours, they must do it unani mously. The United States could not afford to annex a land in which there would be an opposition party always fighting to secede." An exchange says that the post office department has refused to ac cept the resignations of fourth-class postmasters or make appointments except in places where the post master dies or absconds. The de partment has learned that postmas ters are resigning and securing the appointment of democrats or mug wumps, and oftentimes selling their business to the new man as a part of the consideration. Fourth Assistant Rathbone who has charge of these matters, says that it is un fair to the new administration, and the department does not care to be a party of such bargains and sales as many of them seem to be. The state board of equalization Monday discussed the mortgage as sessments. Attorney-Gen. Cham berlain was before the board and gave the opinion that the law con templated that all real property, including mortgages, should be as sessed at its full value. He believ ed that the board had the power to add to or deduct from the several classes of real property such per centum as would bring the property to its full value. The equalization of real property commenced 'Tues- I day. No final decisions have yet been reached on personal property. Salem Statesman: In a letter to the state board of equalization, the asseasor of Wasco county said his aim had been to assess mortga ges at 75 per cent of their face. The Malheur assessor says he assessed mortgages at their face. As usual, tkd MttUnAtnnl, r.... 4 .,,,1 ltAI at 50 per cent, while nearly all of , f . -i i the other counties considered mort gages worth dollar for dollar and so assessed them. The law to make train wrecking a capital offense would meet with general approval. The recent at tempts to wreck Southern Pacific trains have intensified popular feel ing upon this subject. It is not easy to imagine the horrors that might result from the wrecking of a passenger train. No mercy should be shown a fiend that would deliberately endanger innocent lives. Susan B. Anthony thinks we are on the verge of an era of unmarried women, because young men do not make enough money to support their wives, and there is such a craze for dissipation among there that the women would rather go into a store for almost nothing than to take chanees on marryj ng. It must be dreadful when a pro fessional singer knows that she has lost her voice. But it is still more I dreudful when she is not aware of the fttfttExchangd.' ' I n I n o IMG ULU Out Sale !
