Lebanon; Express. H. Y. K1RKPATR1CK. Editor - and Proprietor. A steamer line between Port land and Japan and China is the next thing in order. Ax exchange .Bays good times ulwnyB proceed a presidential campaign. Next year the great campaign occurs. It might be right' occasionally to take a bull by the horns, hut it is always well to keep in mind that the horns belong to the bull. Tub United States pension dis bursements in Maine amount to IS apiece for every man, woman and child in the state, and pension checks form about the only cur rency in certain remote and inac tive hamlets. Rock port New Era. Tns Oreonian notes that there is great activity in the S. P. car shops at Portland. They now have at work 100 men on ten hours per day, instead of 75 oil eight hours as an average for a long time past. A pullmab car porter hs sued a Los Angeles paper for $50,000 dam- . S-ges. The paper . charged the porter, a darkey, with stealing $100 of a passenger. . He lost bis job and thinks $50,000 will be about right. He will probaqjy get noth ing but shavings. Accokdi.no to tho report of the xecrctary of agriculture the people uf our country paid nearly $600, 000,000 for the poultry and eggs consumed during the year 1894. Tbere are only two products of the nation that exceeded that of our poultry, and that is iron and corn. This is a remarkable statement, but 't is one that is proven by BtatisticB. Let no one hereafter say that raising poultry is an in significant business. East Tenn. Farm-Fancier. The dispatches announce a rise jn the price of dressed meats in Chicago and St. Paul, and a re ported shortage of beef cattle on the ranges. Strength is given to t'ce reports by the fact that dressed meats have made a slight advance i n Portland. It is eight years since beef started on the down grade, and the advance that stockmen and farmers have watched sni waited no long and patiently for, may be near at band. It would be hailed js an oasis in a Sahara of starva tion prices. At the recent school election in Pendleton a number of citizens not on the tax roll paid ten, fllteen or twenty-five cents taxes on money or jewlry in their possession, and were allowed to vote as taxpayers, and in order to establish a ru'.e in this respect, Miss Woodruff, the Umatilla school superintendent, has decided that no persons shall be entitled to vote except those whose names appear upon the as sessment roll, and have proper residence qualifications, or as the Leads of families, are provided by the school law with the privilege of voting. This, not coming from a court, does not judicially settle the question, but it seems to be a sensible decision. The following is one of the laws passed by the last legislature. It is well for the people everywhere to read it: Sea 1. It shall be un lawful for any person to sell, barter or give to any minor under the age of sixteen years, any firearms or ammunition, whatever. Sec. 2. Any person violating the provis ions of this ct shall, upon convic tion thereof, be punished by im prisonment in the county jail not less than one month nor more then six months or by fine not less than twenty five nor more than five hundred dollars. Sec. 8. Inas much as there is no law in exist anoe to punish this class of offensw and it is important that the tame should opt go unpunished, this tot shall tak m4 U la foros i ota and afttf iu jptyal tht COING FOR SEN, DAWSON. A letter has been esnt out to the press of the state headed like this: "Initiative and Referendum. Committee Report on progress of the Reform. Senator Dawson's perfidy del ys it two years." It is signed by W. S. Uren, secretary, who requests the publication of the letter. As it is too long for tiint we publish simply the part of most interest: Senator Brownell made one of the most eloquent speeches of the Bession for the bill, and was ably supported by the author of the bill and by Senator Cogswell, Gowan, King, Raley, Huston and Smith, of Clatsop. The republicans who defied the party lash and voted for the bill were Senators fimwnell, Gesner, Gowan and Johnson. The bill was lost, however,' by the treachery of Senator Dawson, of Linn county. This man wrote to our committee on May 2, 1894, in reply to a letter, saying: . "I am in favor of calling a con stitutional convention for the pur pose of submitting to the voters of Oreg"n, for approval or rejection, a new constitution, providing for the initiative and referendum sys tem of mating law. I am a repub licau and if elected to the office of i aew,,i Su,uiav lf P it'Ie. Mr. Web- , , ' ster especially rcquireH our mention. Beuator in the legislative assembly .. r.

Manv who my influence during my term i f . were there report a pleasant time. Al office in favor of a law calling a ' though Ihe scholars were all small constitutional convention at the earliest possible date." But at the last moment be sneaked outside the bar of the senate to escape voting. He mad; Bimilar promises publicly during the campaign, and was supiiosed to be a man of some character and decency. His record on this ques tion proves him to be beneath the contempt of all honorable men. Senator Woodard and Maxwell were also driven in by the party lash. So the bill was lost in the senate for this time. A Torao man named Fisher w--.s arrested in Wallowa county and brought to Union last week, where he will be detained for trial at the present term of court, under an indictment found at the February term for perjury. The young man is a brother of the Fisher who wit h the Prescott boys, was convicted of cattle stealing at the last fall term of circuit court. Daring the progress of that trial Fisher at tempted to establish an alibi f.r his brother by swearing that he was with him at a certain date and place. The sudden jump of silver in the New York market one day last week from 53 to 6oi, and a slight advance both in the London and New York markets ever since is attracting notice. The phenom ena is more interesting becau wheat, wool, lumber and other products have likewise shown a slight but steady advance. The growing silver sentiment in the t liree leading countries of Europe, together with the influence of the swelling silver tide in this country is sure to be a partial factor if not wholly responsible for the changed condition. It forshadows what would be the result of a epucerted determinition of these four count ries to rehabilitate the white metal. -Corvallis Times. Sweet Home Items. Miss Louise Ware left Friday to visit friends and relatives at Oregon City. She expects to be gone all summer. Dr. Booth of Lebanon was up last Saturday to attend Win Bigliee who we are informed bus a severe attack of rheumatism. The boys of this place have been Working several days ou a baseball ground.

It i a pity, but we are short of school funds and therefore, no more school uijtil full. Out of curiosity we paid district No. 66 a flying visit last Friday.
