THE RESULT.
On Tuesday last the Prohibitionists
v. v:e driven to tU'foat. This was to l
xttt-tixL lrt!:iiul jrnve S,fl(0 majori
ty lijrainst it. This was looked for Uvx
lu 1r ? counties throughout the state,
for Instance Jaokw onty gives 678
sv.'ah;t prohibit iou. This wna to be
expected too, when we consider that
the town Jacksonville has a larjje tlte
tillrry and a saloon for every 130 hi
liaMtant. flatsop is another of the
Lit; whisky counties, giving 610 ma
jority apiittst prohibition, This wr.s
exacted, too,- from the character of a
large number of foreigners voting
there. To sum up the whole thing,
prohibition has Iwn defeated in Ore
gon by a Tory isnmll majority of Amer
ican lorn chitons. Tle extravagant
H.se of money and whisky was appar
nnt everywhere, in the purchase of the
leading papers of the state and exag
gerated literature of every description.
ba it understood, the campaign
hasjost commenced. This little "in
cident" in Oregon is but the skirmish
lines of the greyt contest which la go
ing and will continue to go on, and on
until tiie liquor power is subdued, de
feated, vanquished. It is to be hoped
that every temjennee man "and v
man -in Oregon resolved on Wednes
day morning to renew the fight, with
tenfold more earnestness for "God and
home and natie land."
One of the many paltry reasons urg
ed for the pardon of the condemned
Anarchists is that they were in part the
product of the hard social conditions
misery and rebellion caused by cent li
nes of European tyranny. It is true
that the despotism of Europe gave birth
to Anarchists, Socialists and others of
their ilk, who struggle to better their
condition by force and a reign of terror.
On being driven out from their mother
country, they have found a refuge in
America. Unused, as they were, to al
most unrestricted freedom of speech,
they have allowed their blatant clamor
to turn their heads and have bitten the
the hand that sheltered them. For
this four ef them payed the penalty of a j
justly deserved death.
The election in the Eastern States on
Tuesday give the following r suits:
Xcw York democratic by about 18,000
plurality; Iowa republican by 13,000;
Massachusetts, republican by 17,811;
against 0,573 last year: Maryland, dem
ocratic by 9,000; IXew Jersey elects a
republican legislature; Pennsylvania,
republican by 36,S06 Xebraska, repub
lican by 15,000; Foraker, republican
candidate for governor, carries Ohio by
over 2i,000; in Virginia the democrats
will have overtwo-tiiirds majority ma
jority iu both branches of the general
assembly.
Gov. Swineford is becoming notori
ous instead of distinguished. Between
the raking fire of h:s predecessor as
Governor of Alaska, John MeCafferty,
on this side, and the scratching Miss
uewiana, tlie iTewaent s niece, is giv
ing him in her "tfee Saw" book,
fcvwwieford appears in sorry plight, It
seems that he obtained the Governship
of the Territory by undermining and
deception and other unworthy means,
jn the one hand; and, better to secure
it, that he courted and deceived Miss
Cleveland.
The Liberty statue is a great bird
killer. One morning recently 1,300
dead birds ere found at Its feet, who
had dashed themselves against the
light during the night. These birds
were Hying south to escape the cold.
There were a hundred different species
represented among the dead. The
largest bird was a Canadian woodpeck
er, and the smallest a humming birtt.
Thousands of birds will periah beeanse
of this great light, which can be seen
at a distance of thirty-six miles.
It is announced that officials c-f the
Pout hern Pacific are making arrange
ments to run an excursion through to
Portland as soon as the road is comple
ted. The excursion will undoubtedly
ie a large one. It is not yet known
whether the Southern Pacific intends
to celebrate the ceremony of driving
the last spike with any jollification.
The run through the mountains will
be made in day time, and the return
trip at night.
A plant has been discovered in India
hich is said to destroy the power of
tasting sugars, and another plant found
jli Madras destroys the relish for eigars
and tobacco. A fortune of limitless
froportiens awaits the man who will
introduce these plants into the Ameri
can market, for the husbands all want
to cure their wives of eating candy and
the wives to cure their husbands' love
of the weed.
A petition eleven miles long has
leen presented to the Gov. Oglesby of
Illinois, appealing for executive clem
ency in behalf of the Chicago anarch
ists, who. are to !e hanged to-day. His
ac-tkn is awaited with interest. La
ter. Four of them were hung to-day.
One committed suicide by blowing his
head off with dynamise, and two goes
to prison for life.
One-third of the state of Oregon has
never leen surveyed. It will be well
in the next national platforms to coup
le with that resolution about reserving
the pu'lie domain for the honest, set
1 ier, another promising to survey it for
the honest settler, so that he can find
his home.
It is a consolation to know that while
the prohibitory amendment has been
defeated. The 'Salary grab" amend
ment has been snowed under a great
deal worse. This one, too, scceived 2001
votes iu Multnomah pretty near half
of all the votes cast in IheUate for it.
The Orcyoman of yesterday thinks
all three of the amendments have been
defeated. This being the case it may
be said that the election of Tuesday
last 'passed off quietly" without elect
ing anything but McMinnville, Yam- j
hill county, a county seat. Hurrah! j

WAStntJGTOH LETTER.
Frma our Resmlar Convsy-otuleiit.
VVasui.nuto.v, Nov. 1, 187.
"With the exception of lh irk ere tar. v
of the Navy, who has temporarily re
tired from duty on account of illness,
all of the Cabinet are busy at work pre
paring their reports and at the same
time giving rx ints to the President who
Is engaged in the arduous work of col
lecting material for his annual message
one of the most dilllcut undertakings
that he has to perform. It is under
stood that this State paper will be
largely devoted to the discussion of the
tariff and finance taking advanced
ground upon both of these vital ques
tions. The first or long session of the Fifti
eth Congress Is awaited with impatient
interest, as much important legislation
is anticipated, some of which will
probably be of a partisan diameter.
Of course there will be the usual ellbrts
at tariff tinkering and the same num
ber of pension bills, and there will be
many schemes devised to dispose of the
Treasury surplus. But the legislation
that will be of most interest to the
masses of the American people will ie
the great movement for one-cent letter
postage which I have reason to be
lieve will prove successful, because it is
the popular demand, and it Is probable
that the Government can, after a rea
sonable length of time, make the Pos
tal service self-sustaining on this basis.
Jn lSb-, when letter-postage was re
duced from three to two cents, there
was a deficit the first two years, but
since then the condition of the service
has continued to improve until It has
become a source of revenue to the Na
tional Treasury.
The third and fourth-class postmas
ters of the United States, feeling that
their salaries are Inadequate and
smarting under this Injustice, propose
to seek a redress of their grievance by
assembling in national convention in
this city on December 13th next and
present isnr a petition to Congress to
give them an increase of pay commen
surate with the labor imposed on them.
The nest happening of national In
terest at the Capita! will perhaps be
the meeting of the Fisheries Commis
sion early in November. The Ameri
can members are already in the city,
and trained in their duties by Secretin
rv IJayard.
The British Commission
ers are expected in a week, and then
the conference will begin in the State
Department. From all I can learn of
the character of Mr, Chamberlain, the
chief British Commissioner, it would
seem he is more of a controversialist
than a diplomatist, which fact does
not promise well for a satisfactory so
lution of the differences existing be
tween the great English speaking na
tions.
Under the new rules the civil service
guillotine has begun to swing with
telling effect, and that it is a long-dis
tance machine is evident by the fact
that the first thirty-.three decapitations
were not in the departments at Wash
ington, but in the New York Custom
House that number of clerks being
dismissed after failing to pass two ex
animations. The new rul-s are being
appmii in tne departments Here, al
though they have ns yet only been en
forced in the 'War Department, but no
second examinations have taken place.
Civil Service is almost being covered
with contempt by the bitter antagon
ism that has arisen among the Civil
Service commissioners Mr. Edgertou,
the chairman, being arrayed against
his colleagues, Messrs Oberly and Ly
man. There are those who believe
that the President should interfere anl
re-organize the Commission, unless he
can "pour oil upon the troubled wa
ters." The cases of the Chicago Anarchis's
are now before the United States Su
preme Court, after a most exhausth e
discussion by the-ablest counsel of the
country, and a decision is expected auy
momentathe prevalent opinion being
that it will be adverse to the defend
ants. On a recent Sunday the Capital w; s
honored by the presence of the Ttee.
Di. Burcliurd, of "rum, Romanism ai d
reliellion" fame. The noted divine at-
ceptably ministered t- the spiritual de
sires of a very large congregation at the
Metropolitan church, many of whom
were attracted purely by curitsity to
see and hear the man whose single al
literative utterance is K'u ved to have
had a potent influence in deciding tlu
issue i.f the last Presidential election.
Dr. Burchard is a venerable and dis
tinguished looking clergyman of thc
old school, with a captivating style
and an impressive delivery. He made
no political allusions in this "off year."
To have done so would have lieen bad
form.
Starets.
Flowers have bloomed in our prai
rie and passed away from age to age
unseen by man, and multitudes of virt
ues have lecn acted out in obscure pla
ces without note of admiration.
No one has more enemies in this
world than upright, proud and sensi
ble man disposed to take persons and
things for what they really are and
not for what they seem.
Nature has many strange ways of
doing beautiful things: From filthy

they bloomed in the garden of Eden
The only merit of a man who has no
credit, is that he never runs in debt.
If one has an abundance of wealth
he will have plenty of friends, so call
ed, but puncture the bubble and away
go the friends.
"He gave it as his opinion," that
who c're could make two ears of corn,
or two blades of grass to grow upon a
spot of ground where only one grew
before, would deserve letter of man
kind, and do more essential service to
his country, than the whole race of
politicians put together.
Knowledge is of two, kinds: We
know a subject ourselves or we know
where we can find information upon it.
Errors like straws upon the surface
flow: He who would search for pearls
must dive below,
The man who all his wants conceals,
gains more than he who all his wants
reveals.

As Ugly as Ir-gaUs.
The mvnt c-itstic inti rvlew bet we. n
Senator Jngalis and a Washington n-
portcr, which is said not to have plea:
cd that rather vain statesman over well
when ho read it In o'.d type, has;
brought out some good stories nt ti e !
expense of the mipt rcllllous Kanson.
It seems a constituent, a rough lookii
fellow of the cow-boy tye, sent in ha j
card to ti e Senator at the capitol one
day last winter and then seated him
self in the marble room to await the
Senator' arrival. When Mr. Ingalls
made his appearance some one cngag- '
ed him in conversation. At Its conclu
sion he started to re-enter the chamber,
having apparently forgotten the pur
pose for whieh he quilted It. At that
moment the cowtioy seized him. "lie
you a Senator," he inquired.
Senator Ingalis disengaged himself
and answered with unusual dignity:
I have that honor, sir."
"Do you know old Ingalis of Kan
sas;'" was tne next interrogatory.
The senior Senator from Kansas and
president protein of the United States
Senate, gave the fellow a piercing look
to see If he Mas In earnest. He evident
ly satisfied himself on that point, tor
he answered immediately: Oh, yes;
we are well acquainted."
By this time quite a crowd of Sena
tors and Senate employees had gather
ed around the two men.
"Well then," continued the visitor,
"I wish you would tell him I am about
tired of waiting for him, and if he does
not hurry out lure pretty (cxui I'll
make It lively for him when his
next election comes around."
"Do you know Ingalis?" inquired
the Kansas Senator, M-ith an air of in
difference."
"I do not," was the response.
"Have you any idea what he looks
like?"
"iso, but 1 ui tout lie is as ugly as
old Nick."
"Do you suppose he is as ugly as I
am?" was Mr. Ingalis' next interroga
tory. "Well, I don't know," said the fel
low with great deliberation, "but I ex
pect you would crowd him mighty
close."
At this point Mr. Ingalis made his
escape into the Senate chamber trying
to look responsive to the roars of laugh
ter which followed him; and his con
stituent wonders to the present day
why he could not get au interview
with his senator, but declares with
much emphases that "he'll make it
hot yet for old Ingalis" when the next
senatorial election takes place in Kan
sas.
Avoid the harsh, irritating, griping
C miKunds so often sold as purirulive
medicine, and correct the irregularities
of fie bowels by the use of Ayer's Cath
artic Pills. They are invaluable as a
family medicine.
A single bottle of Ayer's Sarp.parilla
will establish the merits of this medi-v-ine
as a blood purifier. Many thus
nds of jieople are yearly cured of
chronic disuses by tlie faithful use of
this remedy. It is unequahd for the
cure of scrofula.
Sore Eyes
The eyes ore always In sympathy with
the body, and afford an excellent index
ot its condition. When the eyes beci me .
weak, and the lids inflamed and sore, it
is an evidence that the system has
become disordered by Scrofula, for
which Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofula, which produced a painful in
flammation in my eyes, canweif me much
Buffering for a number of years. By the
advice of a physician I commenced taking
Ayer's SarsnrmriHa. After using this
medicine a short time I was completely
Cured
My eyes are now in a splendK condi
tion, and I am as well and strong as ever.
Mrs. Wiliiam Gage, Concord, H.
For a number of years I was troubled
with a hnmor in my eyes, and wag nnable
to obtain any relief until X commenced,
using Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This medi
cine has effected a complete enre, and I
believe it to be the best of blood puri
fiers. C. . Upton, Koshua, M. II.
From childhood, and nntil with a few
months, I have been afliicted with AVeak
and Sore Eyes. I have used for these
complaints, with beneficial results,
Ayer's Sarsapariila, and consider it a
jrreat blood purifier. Mrs. C. Phillips,
Ulover, Yt.
I Buffered for a yenr with inflamma
tion in my left eye. Three ulcers formed
on the ball, depriving me of siht, and
causing preat pain. After trying many
other remedies, to no purpose, I was final
ly induced to use Ayer's Sarsapariila.
By Taking
three bottles of this medicine I have been
entirely cured. My sight has been re
stored, and there is no sign of inflamma
tion, sore, or ulcer in my eye. Kendal
T. Bowen, Sugar Tree liidge, Ohio.
My dauchter, ten years old, was afflict
ed with Scrofulous Sore Eyes. During
the last two years she never saw light c
any kind. Fhysieians of the highest
standinp; exerted their skill, but with no
permanent success. On the recommen
dation of a friend I purchased a bottle of
Ayer's Sarnaparilla, which my daughter
commenced taking. Before alio had us-d
the third bottle her sight was restored.
Her cure is complete. W. E. Suther

-A. Words M'itli tlie Pcoile.
When two years ago we started in business, with (.15 one of our competitors then remarked) a bar
rel of sujiar luidasai-k of cotTee, we did so with a determination to succeed. On the basis of low
Prices. Fair Dealing, the Best Uotala, at One Price for Cash, tt is needless to say our anticipa
tions have been fully realizeil. From a very small
enlarge our quarters tnree times, ana we are still crowded for room. AVe fully appreciate the itenerons
uitnmnrc. reeelred from the people of all classes, who have from the first stood by us. Our success Is
due to them and to thein we extend our thanks. We shall continue in the future to conduct business
ou the same principles that have proved so successful to the past, viz :
The Best ( foods at the Lowest Price for Cash. All jroods warranted as represented, or money re
funded. No baits offered oa a few articles In order to catch you on others.
Wc Invite thcr public to callaud inspect our stock. Wc shall take pleasure in showing goods
w hither you purchase oi uot.
