Clackamas county couimis
sioners are talking of purchasing a
county poor farm.
uovKiimm Boise, of Iowa, baa
come out unreservedly for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver.
The frequent stage robberies oh
the route from Klamath Falls to
Aget have resulted in Wells, Fargo
& Co. again witlulrawirlg from
business over that line.
A Michigan farmer and his wife
signed what they supposed to be a
marriage certificate, turned up later
attached to a neatly penned, note
for $1,000. If the farmer can fine
the groom und bride he is ready to
throw an old shoe at them for luck.
His foot will be inside the shoe.
Ik the big dailies gave half of the
Rpace they give to scandal and pug-,
ilium each day to a truthful publi
cation ot the vast resources of the
state and the many inducements
offered home seekers, they would
soon have a better field in which to
work up their circulation, and at
the same time they would be doing
Oregon some service.
The Orange Judd Farmer crop
report for June declares that in the
six central states of Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Mississippi and
Kansas, the wheat crop will be an
almost entire failure. Only a half
a crop of hops is predicted in New
York. In Oregon the vines never
looked better. With a failure of
wheat in the west and hops and
fruit in the cast, the outlook for a
martet for the northwest's abun
dance is very promising.
The Eosebnrg Ke iew sarcastic
ally remarks that there ,-is a gen
eral feeling of disappointment be
cause Colonel Alley refuses to be
come a candidate for congress from
the second congressional district."
There are two other equally avail
able candidates in that district for
the republicans to select from in the
persons of Hofer and Barkley,
which should have a tendency to
relieve the general disappointment,
especially" among the democrats.
Either of these great statesmen
would stand us much show of an

Lane.
A. kewpaper man is in some in
stances like other people. He re
spects his friends, appreciates a
kindness, and is always willing to
return a favor. In another respect
he resembles his fellownien. He
will not continue to pat man on
the back, tell what a good man he
i.-, and how much he' has done for
the town, and give hima free busi
ness puff every week, when the
man will not, through personal
prejudice or otherwise, continue to
aid in supporting the paper. In
other words, he stands by the man
who stands by him. Thatis about
the way of the world, and a news
paper man can't be expected to be
so much different from other
people.
A dispatch from Chicago an
nounces that the wages of not leis
than 250,000 men in the United
States have been advanced materi
ally within the last ninety days.
Careful inquiry throughout the
country indicates an advance aver
aging If per cent. The Cliic.-.go
Iriimne has compiled a list which
embraces more than 2o0 firms
whicj have within the last few
. i. --i i.i . ,. .. .
auvuiiceu me wages ot tfietr
employes. A notable featuro of
this great industrial improvement
is that the wa(!s of these 250,000
men have, with hardly an excep
tion, been advanced voluntarial by
tlio employers, who" have shown a
spirit of willingness to share the
results of the era of general pros
perity which seem to have set in,
without delaying the division of
profits until labor grow imptient.
Silvorrnania, or any other craze
born of popular discontent, cannot
live in the face of such teitimony

walked, will surely lead up to the
right hand of God.

therefor, these sweet nienmrrinls
proved a great c imfort to Mrs. Bishop

"Some of our lawmakers," said a
veteran lobbyist, who had had exper
ience in many capitals, "have very
curious consciences. 1 remember ou
one occasion that it be-.-arac neces
sary to have a certain man be a certain
state-legislature on our side in a little
legislation of importance, and it was my
duty to louk after him. I a d so, with
various attentions, including wines,
dinners, and so on, and at last, as I
couldn't fix him, I plumped a thousand
dollar bill at him. My, my, but he was
hot
" 'No man can bribe me, siil Ko m:in
can bribe me,' he fairly yellc 1, a::d .be

manner that I discreetly pocketed my
thousand and left him. The r.ext day i
I. don't know, of course, how it could
h ive happened one or two newspapers
that didn't like my man puiiibhed an
intimation that the lobbyist were
taking care of him, Then he was hot-t-.-r
than ever, and the next night I sent
a lady lobbyist in my employ to see
him. Bho came back to me in an hour
without the thousand dollars and said
he was all right Then I saw him, and
the next day be had a card in all the
papers, to the effect that he had repelled
with scorn the advances of a lobbyist,
and that he had accepted a bribe from
no man When the bill cause up he
voted with us and no comment was
made because he had been on the fence
anyway and nobody, except the few,
knew bow be would vote. All the same,
he took a roundabout way to avoid tell
ing a straight lis, didn't ho?" and the
lobbyist laughed, Detroit free Press.

averting attacks of the cholera. One
"i the most popular of these is that of
passing under the Koran. Two elders
