Red river, in Texas, is lower

The internal revenue experts

A loud complaint comes from
Chicago of the mirery caused by the
boycott by the railroads of those
men who were engaged in the A.

The lines of no two human
hands are exactly alike. When a
traveler in China desires a psss
poit, the palm of the hand is cov
ered with fine oil paint and an
inipiesaian is taken on thin, damp
paper. This paper officially
stamped, is his passport. Ex.
Ik Ohio a farmer painted his
house white. It rained before the
paint was dry, and the rain carried
plenty of white lead into the cis
tern. Then they all drank tbe
water, and six members of the
family ere dying. It requires some
senBe to keep alive, even in Ohio.
The Examiner's railroad peti

of Congressman McGuire, of Cal
ilornia. It contains 200,507 names,
Oregon contributing 13, 058 ot the

is highest with 1,418, Coos second
with 1,148 and Douglas third with
1,134.
The state university and agri
cultural college cost the state
great deal of money, -and they are
turning out some fine football
players. The taxpayers are, also,
doing a little kicking, although
not so scientifically proficient as
the boys their money is educating.
Ex.
A bachelor one day set the table
in bis lonely abode with plates for
himself an imaginary wife and
five ciiildren. fie then sat down
to dine, and as he helped himself
to food he put the same quantity
on each of the other plates and
surveyed the prospect, at the same
time computing the cost. He is
still a bachelor Ex.
Keablv every community has
some people it could well afi'oad to
do without. They are constantly
complaining of the shortcomings
of better citizens. They havenever
been known to Uke hold of any
public enterprise. They never
fail to impress a stranger looking
for a business location that every
branch of trade is crowded. They
seem thoroughly dissatisfied and
disgusted.. The wonder is they do
not emigrate to more congenial
climes, with the wide world before
them they might find some place
better suited to their way ofi
thinking.
The President has sent a lengthy
message to congress, emhraceing
nearly every item of interest that
has happened since his last mes

nation it entitled to take its place
among the civilized nations fifth
world. No reference is made to
the last cyclone that struck the
democratic party aad bat little
attention is given to the tariff.
The president has a plan to relieve
the country of its financial em
barasment, but it is too lengthy
for n to copy at present. The
Republicans dont like the message
and the Democrats refuse to com
ment on it. They bar not yet
recovered their breath.
The Oregonian'i Washington
correspondent writes that Gover?
new-elect Lord, tS Oregon, and bie
wife spent a few days in Wash
ington, before going tome. Tbe
governor made a decided hit in
inviting President Cleveland to
visit Oregon, especially as the
boorishness of Pennoyer on the
occasion of President Harrison's
visit is still remembered. - Govern
or Lord became quit a prominent
figure as the man who succeeds the
peculiar Pennoyer. His invitation
to the president and the fact that
he coupled it with the assurance
that the people of Oregon would
at any time welcome the chief
executive of the nation, has done
much to give the people of the
East a better opinion of the state.
It elan left the impression that
Pennoyerism was on its last legs
in Oregon.

At a recent banquet Hpta, but by all who knew ban.
Press Association of New York,
Hr. Whitelaw Beid was called up
on to respond to the toast, "The
Independent Press." Here is bis
response as reported in the daily
papers of that city: "There is no
such thing in America as an in
dependent press, unless it is out
in the country towns. You are
all slaves. You know it and. I.
know it, there is not one of yeu
who dares to express an honest
opinion. U you express it, you
know before hand that it will not
appear in print. I em paid 11501
for keeping honest opinions out of
the paper I am connected with.
Others of you are paid similar
salaries for doing similar things.
If I should allow honest opinions
to be printed in one issue of my
paper, like Othello, before twenty-
four hours my occupation would
be gone. Tbe man a ho would be
so foolish as to write honest opin
ions would be out en the streets
hunting for another job. Tbe
business of the New York journal
ist is to distort the truth, to lie
outright, to pervert, to v illify, to
fawn at the feet of Mammon and
to sell his country and his race for
his daily bread, or for what is
about the same thing, his salary.
You know this and I know it; and
what foolery to be toasting an
independent press.' We are tools
and vassals of rich men behind the
scenes. They pull the string and
we dance.. Our time, our talents,
our lives, our possibilities, are all
the property of other men. We
are intellectual prostitutes."

The trial of Alma Morris for killing
deer for tbeir bides was completed
befere Justice Powell aud a grand Jury
of six men Saturday. A verdict
not guilty was brought in. . One ffiao
informs The Democrat that be saw
eight earcassss near Moms' plant,
whleh be testified to; another saw
Morris carrying deer in ea his task.
It is stated that he confessed to different
parties, and it is further said he
came to Albany with money to con
fess and pay bis line; but be was ably
defended aud cleared, and likewise
well prosecuted, but tbe jury didn1
look at it aooenling to the reports
given. It is possible no one saw him
akin the deer aud sell tbe hides. But
tbe county will fool the bill, nearly
