i, '-The meanest Populist on
rd lives in Union county, Mo.
"sold his son-in-law one-half
jf a cow, and then refused to
divide the milk, maintaining
that ho B1(1 only the front half.
The son-in-law was also required
to provide the feed the cow con-
?med and compelled to carry her
Wit'or three times a day. Re
cently the cow hooked the old
man and he is Buing the son-in
law for damages."
The Iowa court that has to de
cide which died first, the father or
the son, when they both sank
together while bathing, in order
that it my be known tvnether
tine widow is entitled to half or
the whole of the old man's prop
erty, has a highly interesting tiek
on its hands. The brother and
Bister of the husband want the
half very much, and doubtless
the wife's " relatives are equal!;
eager in the matter, because she,
too, must pass away Booner or
later, whether by drowning or the
ordinary way.
A Portland correspondent . to
the Rogue River Courier ' sayB:
'.'The committee oflUU bas pre
pared bills for the legislature to
effect some financial reforms, both
as to the security of -public money
and the protection of private de
positors in all kinds of banking
institutions. This committee will
load the legislature down with
bills, if present prospects hold out,
and among them will he many
(rood ones and some , that will set
t ie legislature completely by the

of course, proceed to pass all billB
that the committee may present
Fkoii the report of the railroad
commiisioners of Oregon we learn
that the average ton mileage
road in the United States is 551,
232, and the average rate per ton
per mile, .893 cents; on the Ore
gon Railway & Navigation Com
- psniy's line in 1893 the ton mile
age per mile of road was 283,455,
less than one-half the average for
the United States, and the rate
per ton per mile, 1.3G6 cents,
On the Southern Pacific's lines
Oregon the ton miLage per mile
of road for 1894 was 42,942, 'about
one sixth the volume of the Ore
gon Railway & Navigation Com
pany, and the rate per ton per
mile, 2.40 cents. The difference
bitween the Oregon Railway
Navigation- Company's rate and
that of the Southern Pacific
accounted for on the ground that
the volume of traffic of the former
is much larger, as above set forth,
and much of it through business,
and the average haul per ton is
223 miles, while the average haul
of the hitter is but 93 miles.
Pkof. Shaw has returned from
Gram's Pass, where he went to
(iive expert testimony in a case
where a man was prosecuted by
the food commissioner" for selling
adulterated lard. The lard was
shown by the evidence to contain
tallow but the defendant escaped
punishment on account of a defect
in the.adulte.-ated food law. The
Jaw was born in the last legislature
nnd on its third reading in the
" house, was nftde the subject of an
"neudmenW The law as amended
,ihe hoike and subsequently
te. Then it went to the
, . .merit committee, and in the
. 'imont the amendment was

her. $20,000 was the amount the
people paid out for legislative
clerks at the last session, ami the
above is an example of how wisely
and well the money whb spent.
The discovery of the tllow in
the lard was made by Trof. Shaw
assisted by the photograph depart
ment at the experiment station in
an analysis of samples sent from
Grant's Pass.'
Up to date there is about $22,
000,000 of the gold obtained by the
sale of bonds to replenish the
reserve in the treasury gone where
the woodbine twinith. For this
$22,000,000 Mr. Carlisle gave $22,
000,000 of bonds at three per cent,
to run for two years. He may
have bad the satisfaction of gnzmg
upon this vast sum, but nothing
more. He hardly had time to
count s pile like this. It has now
gone from his gaze forever, and
the nation will have to pay $7,
000,000 in interest for the peep he
had. This Is paying dearly for so
brief a pleasure. . But since it
pleases Mr. Carlisle, what right
have we to object? Tor all the
good it will do the masses, this
$7,000,000 might lave beon dump
ed into the Pacific ocean. It is
simply Btartling to think that the
people have to foot this interest.
But who has made this vast sum
so short a time? Why, the
bankers of course. Those hard
working fellows, toiling night and
day to keep alive. Mr. Carlisle
and his chief have already said
that this must be repeated shortly
No doubt of it. If it depends upon
thebinks, it will have to be re
peated every month. But it is
about time for this administration
to cease shoveling money into the
vaults of private banks. Does Mr.
Cleveland or his helper in this
matter, ever think that they may
be held criminally responsible for
some of their actions? The time
mny come when just such thing!
will happen. There have been
impeachments of presidents before
today. His. cannot come too
soon. Any combination of idiots
that will squander the people,!
money In th:s fashion, should be
severely punished. Tomahawk.
Some one took exceptions to the
advice of the Oregoniao for those
out of work to rustle for something
to do, and not to stand all the day
idly waiting for some employer to
hire them. The same critic added :
"We do not wish .Mr. Scott any
harm, but for a short time and in
the way of experiment we should
like to see him drop down in Port'
land, out of work and without
friends," says the Spokane Spokes
man Review. In reply the editor
of the .Orcgonian says of himself:
Be was in exactly that position in,
Portland over forty years ago. But
he didn't stand around and whine,
nor look for resources in political
agitation or bogus money, nor joingroynp yon will marry, as all little girls

He struck out for
the country, dug a farmer'j pota
toes, milked the cows and built
fences for his food and slept in a
shed, got a job for rail-splitting
and took his pay in an order for a
pair of cowhide boots; in those
boots trudged afoot to Pugct
sound; "rustled" there for -three
years and raked together $70, with
which he came bick to Oregon, a
foot, to go to school, and managed
by close economy to live six months
till, his last dollar having van
'ished, he bought an ax of Tom
Cbarman of Oregon City on credit,
made himself a camp on the hill
above Oregon City und cut cord-
wood till he got a little money to
pay debts he owen for bookB and
'.loths. The next years were spent
very much the same way &xd
work and hard study, but nothing
for beer and tobacco, and no time
fooled awny listening to political
demagogues. All this is common
place, but this is recited to show
that when the ediror of this news
paper talks about hard times self-
help and what men can do he
knows what he is talking about.

Lawrence Ban-eft onoe told me of a
conversation be hod with Edwin Booth.
The latter had been congratulated npou
an ovation given him by a crowded
bouse on the opening night of an engage
ment. "The sweetest music to my ears,"
said the great tragedian, "is the shout
ins of the boys in the gallery. I know
they are not applauding because I have a
reputation or because they wish to moke
a display. They simply give vent to
their natural enthusiasm. When they
ihout, I know that I am giving a good
performance. As for the parquet, it
may clap its hands eot of politeness. A
dramatic critic who had certain notions
as to how a line should be read will ap
plaud if I read it his way; 'Otherwise us
will remain quiet. Icon never analyse
the applause of the front rows', bnt;the
gallery is sincere in its lines or dislikes."
