ROBBING THE PEOPLE.
The maximum number of soldiers
in active service in all the armies of
the United States at any time be-
tween bumpier ana Appomattox j ada papers to that the idea al
was 098,802, or, in round numbers, j reftdv ha8 a slrona hold UD011 the
700,000. This information is taken
from the government records.
While this is true it is also true
that there are 850,000 on the pen- j all her interegt8 plead with her to
sion rolls drawing pay for valiant : obliterate the border line that now
service iu defense of their country, j 8eparate8 her from the . United
It plainly reveals that there are a Stateg Nothing but a customs un
large number of thieves on the pen- ;iou with her ct,ionies eoulcl have al
eion rolls who have committed per-j Ieviated tne situation, but this has
jury in order that they might as-1 beeu deferred 80 iong that, as Lord
sist in robbing the people.
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.

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.

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
