S)aily BJeu.ocrat, The woods used for pulp making are the poplar, cotton wooJ, spruce and fir. Wood pulp mills are now located in twenty-four dif ferent states, and they employ capital to the amount of at least $20,ooo'ooo. Col. John Kelsey, of Corvallis, l.i a can didate for the United States Senate to suc ceed Dolph. While the Col. lacks the abil ity of Dolph. VCt he has ahiHtv mikr an acceptable Senator, and his locality should give mm quite an advantage over Dolph. Dolph's successor should come from some omer section ot the state than Portland. President Cleveland took charge of the government finances at a most critical mo ment : he haa to conform to the laws which were the cause of the embarrassment and administer them ; he has had to meet new obstacles through the cumulative ef feet of evils which these laws entail ; he has found it almost a dailv requirement to watch and adjust treasury action so as not to disturb industrial progress ; and yet he has brought the country through it all, witn confidence at our great business cen ters constantly increasing botl) In the integ - nty ana wisaom ot nis management. At tne late election in California one Dr. O'Donnell ran as an independent can didate for Mayor. Pond, the democratic candidate, was elected by about 4000 ma jority. O'Donnell alleged that he had been cheated and demanded a recount. The re count is going on and so far O'Donnell has gained about 500 votes which had been c.untec tor rond and Story.the republican candidate. It is evident that thnr a conspiracy to prevent O'Donnell's election Dy counting his votes for the other candi dates. These election officers should be punished to the full extent of the law whether they be democrats or republicans. Be it said to the credit of Mayor Pond that he courts the most rigid investigation. By the Australian plan of voting the ticKets.wnicn are printed by the state and furnished to the voters, have on them the names of all the candidates. A man who is entitled to vote is given one of these.and in a compartment where no one can see him he erases the names of those to whom he is opposed. If he cannot read he makes affidavit to that effect, and then two sworn scrutineers take him to another private room, read over to him the he scratches off whichever he pleases. The men swear that they will keep secret what he has done. No fault has been found with the workings of the system thus far.except by those who were in the habit of huvW voters and who liked to know that they got me goods they purchased. Careful statistics concerning the employ menrs ot women in New York City give us 200,000 women engaged in 120 separate employments. Of all these employments, those which have to do with the clothing of women engage tne largest number of work ers, but there are women engaged in the preparation of tobacco for sale.thc making of wall paper, the manufacture of jute and wooien and cotton goods, and many simi lar employments. The difficulty now gen erally experienced In securing efficient do mestic help is largely owing to the fact that sc many new openings for women are being made, and that these are both more remunerative and more independent. The greatest revolutions are evolutions. They are silent, but wide-spreading and permanent. POINTS ABOUT liEN. HAItltlSOX.

No party dies so long as it has anything to live for, so long as it represents any vital principle. When it does not de that It ought to die and give place to something better. The democratic party has never had a better opportunity than to-day, certainly not in recent years. It represents certain views and holds certain doctrines which it believes of vital importance to the welfare and prosperity of the country ,and, so believing, it has many inducements to maintain a bold front and watch carefully for any mistake of its opponent. It means to stand close to the people, voice their feelings, and enact into statutes their will.snd surely no party could have a better motive for effort than to advance the interests of the people and to serve them as best it can.
