Farmers' alliances have resoluUtd against the ch 'iigc, and the pre? of the state, v itli & f w exceptions, oppos ed a change. The American Book Company is now furnisbign the school bnjks used in this state. The prices paid that concern are much hijhw than other publish ing houses agree to furnish equally as good, if not better, books, and unless the price " of our present series of school books is reduced we are of the opinion that a. change should be made. A change of school boots was made about six yeait ago and the howl of robbing and boodle was loud and long. But the facts in the case seem to point to a difier ent cunclnsion. One gentlemen who has quite a family of children says that the change six years ago was a money-saving operation to him. One of his children had completed the fourth reader and it was necessary to get a fifth. In stead of buying a new fifth cut right, he took the old fourth render and exchanged it for a fifth, pay ing the differ mce in the price' of fourth and fifth readers in cash, thus saving the cost of the fourth reader. In other instances he took the old books and received in exchange the new books free of any cost whatever. But at the Barae time iiis neighbors who were compelled to buy new books out right, having no old ones to ex change, were loud in their denun-. elation of the change of text-books and pronouneed it a clear case of robbing the people. If a change is made, the price of school books will be reduced at least 20 per cent, and in ome instances considerably more. Plaindealer. The Portland Tomahawk tries to explain the democratic defeat in this way. The Democratic party is in a fearful condition as a result of the general elections of lust Tuesday; but, it will recover. The hutnilating defeat is easily explicable, and thj long essays of various ortaus deciphering the "significance" of the overthrow are. quite useless. A blunderer iii the presidential chair, surrounded by a blundering cabinet bull-dozed an incompetent and leaderless house into the passage of a tariff which was neit.ter Democratic, Republi can, Populist or Mugwump, - tattered and tatterdemalion affair which had no friends save the adiniuistratiun and the Vt'uys and Means committee. Six rascals in the senate revised the bill to suit the needs of numerous trusts. This is the way in which the Dem ocratic leaders answered the demand of the Chicago platform for a tariff for revenue. Along with this incubus came industrial d"pressio:i and. its attendants, Coxcyism and strikes, which shrewd and persistent Republican organs and oratars luid to the j Democratic party. The burden was too heavy. Had a reasonable tariff law been jiassed, the party could have defended itself against the charge of having caused hard times, with partial success. But, with such a record of incompetence and rascality, argument was use less; it fell forceless before the mention of Havemeyer. Orover Cleveland should contemplate with satisfaction and serenity, his share in scuttling the ship. He might have adopted a policy that Vas defensible but he chose to follow .me tt at was suicidal. A correspondent in an exchange says: Is there another spot on the top of this earth where man can more nearly produce all the necessaries of life his breadstuff's, his roots, his fruits, his vegetable, his salmon and numerous, other fishes, bis wool, his sugar beets,) his lumber and fencing and fire j wood, etc., at so little expense snd j K mtifh. e i b n in th' Willamette valley? As a matter of fact our peopleare almost wholly independent of the outside .world and yet there are those who are always complaining in fact who would complain if they were going to be hung. Contrast our equable climate and never failing crops "ith the grasshopper regions of Kansas, or the drouth-stricken valleys of Nebraska, or t frost- bitten plains of the Dakota; with those countries, where it takes one-haif the year to raise .enough to keep their stock and themselves the other half where they arc tanned in the winter by the'ent- ting winds from the north polo, ana in the Bummer ny the scorch ing blasts from purgatory. Who ever he ird of a colony leaving Ore eon for any other country? Wtile they may not, come very ra'r idly, they always die here when they do come." The mining industry of Joseph ine county is fast coming up to the point of importance that has long been anticipntid.' The town of Grant's Pubs is completely sur rounded by mines. - From every point of tb compass an be found good paying quarto aud placers. There is perhaps no county in the state where so many g.wd paykg mines exist as here in JosepUiile, and we are safe in saying that we Ii8ve mines here that, for exten sive capital investment, jean not be duplicated on the Pacific coast. The importance of pushin" this.iuiportant enterprise is felt from a'l sections, and the moun tains are freely turning loose their abundance of gold. Oregon Ob Server. Doubtless there is one woman in these United States who is thankful that she did not marry her first love, Bays the Boston Journal. When she was a youne girl she met, on a visit to friends, a theological student, to whom, eventually, she became engaged. This youth afterward showed him self fickle and jilted the girl. Later on he again jilted a , other young woman, and, although she forgave and subsequently married him, he has never been anything more than an ordinary countrv clergyman, whom the first girl could not regret. She has since married, too, and her present name is Mrs. trover Cleveland. Cheap food is not of necessity an (multigated public blessing, despite the clamor of the Eastern press for a reduction in the price of bread. Looked at from the Oregon wheatgrower's point of view, flour is too cheap now. Cheap human laboris always more or less of a misfortune, .and the farmer is forced by a reduction in the price of breadstuffs to toil for compensation ruinous to his pros perity, and inconsistent with the wages of the city ronsumers of hie products. Living prices are the best policy for all concerned. Telegram. It may be a good thing for China. Her people have been shown that education, discipline and modern methods are essential to their successful defense in that they must either join- the pro cession of advancement or relin quish hope of maintenance as a nation. If they have been awaken ed to these fa.U those repeated whippings by Japan were so many disguised blessings.--Teleg am.- It is stated confidentially in Wall street that the g orerment bond issue has been agreed upon Secrcla-y Carlisle, so the story goes, was informed Saturday night of ' th? president's arrangement with New York bankers; to await congressional action would involoe too much delay without any guarantee of favorable results. A bond issue of 150,000,000 will probably be made this week. L. H. McMaham, iu his "Wasp" is authority for the statement that the governor, on a salary of $1,500 a year, makes if 3,300; the secratary of state, with o Balary of $1,500 makes 117,000; the Btate treasurer! makes 130.000 to MOOfi a vent-.! instruction 3,000 .-hove his con stitutional salarv. It was Hill who warned hit fellow-senators that if they passed the tariff bill with the income tax the states of New York, New Jersey aud Connecticut would beoome permanently republican. His prediction came true, but he pro- hab'-v didu t figure on getting so batlty lett hunsclt, While crazed from the effects of a protracted s.pree, Peter Pepper, a barber, an inmate of the city hospital at Louisville, Thursday night grasped his tongue in hoth j hands nd tore it ':artiallv. from his month. The suit of the Indianapolis Eailroad Company to enjoin the State of Indiana from the collec tion of $192,000 taxes fixed by the State Board has been decided against the railroad. Fai R hundred men employed in the Canton Copper v orks at Baltimore have been notified that on next pay day wages will be increased 10 per cent. The hones of all flying birds are hollow and filled with air, thus combining the greatest strength with the greatest possible light ness. Those New York Democrats who shouted for Hill and did their bet ting on Morton are jubilant. Willum IIlj.l, an American in Hong Kon, has been fined $100 for sketching military works there. Mrs. T. B.
