Lebanon Express. H, Y. K1RKPATRICK, Editor - and Proprietor It cost England $80,000,000 to punish the king of Abyssinia for imprisoning eight Englishmen who viBited Abyssinia regardless of the express orders of the British gov ernment. In one day Mr. Pingree issued two proclamations, one as govenor of Michigan and one as Mayor of Detroit. He holds both offices. There are no potato bugs on Mr. Fingree. Ex. The infant sugar trust, which had a profit of thirty million of dollars last year under the present law, is one of the great industries which is to be further protected under the proposed tarirl so ttiut it may be able to douule that amount each year hereafter. Gov. Btuld, of California, has signed the bill appropriating $35, 000 to the state printing office. It will be remembered that he vetoed a tinner bill appropriating twice that amount for the same purpose. Many other states should have their appropriations for state printing reduced in like propor turn. President McKinley has turned the federal offices over tn the dele- gntinnsin congress and the senators from the various states, and the office seeker who has not their favor need not apply. If there are snv differences among the delega tion, he gives them notice that they must settle them among themselves before they come tn him. This from the Portland Telegram is not bad: "One of Oregon's rail road commissioners rises to re- murk that he proposes to pursue his official task whether he is paid for it or not. As the chief feature of his official task has heretofore consisted of drawing his salary, it is difficult to see how he-can pur sue it when he has no Blary to draw." When Preideut McKinley was a soldier he promised a colored mm named James T. Cheney, in a joking way, to give him an office should he ever become president. The president has notified Cheney that the position of doorkeejier of the Wh te House, worth $1,000 salary and (2,000 in tips will be given him. And Cheney's smile is so broadly generous it is plainly visible on the back of his neck. Never in the history of the coun try have so many trusts been formed and combinations of capital been made as since the election of McKinley. The prospective tariff law will he framed at their direc tion, and is expected to give them the desired opportunity to plunder the people. They run little risk of success in the lower house of con gress, and expect to influence enough senators to win. Jackson ville Times. Tne Portland Welcome says: "The sentiment among business men is almost unanimously in favor of the retention in office of Collector of Customs T. J. Black. He has given general satisfaction in the administration of the affairs -of his office, and it would be con sidered very proper should Presi dent McKinley allow him to re main where he is. Mr. Black is a sound money Democrat and has always upheld the gold standard. Consequently he is in full sympathy with the present administration." Evidently Mayor Pennoyer sees by the points of the straws whi:h way the wind is blowing politically in Oregon, and is shaping himself to get back in touch with the democratic partv. A few days ago he published a letter in the T)re- gonian raking the populist mem bers of the legislature for holding out against organization, and now he has appointed the old demo cratic war horse John Myers, chirf of police. Veil there are muny democrats in the state who will welcome the ex-governor back into b fuld. Mountaineer. President McKinley is the youngest member of his official family, being 53 years old. John Sherman, secretary of Btate, is 74; Lyman J. Ghge, secretary of the treasury, is M ; Russell A. Alger, secretary of war, is CI; John D. Long, secretary of the navy, is 59; Joseph McKenna, attorney general, is 54; James A. Gary, post master general, is 03; Cornelius N. Bliss, secretary of the interior, is 60; James Wilson, secretary of igi iculture, is 02. The fact that "Fortune is a fickle goddess," was never more aptly illustrated than in the career of ex-Senator H. A. Tabor, of Colora do, says the Chicago Times-Herald. A farmer, a et-nemnson, a small grocery-keeper, a great mine-owner, a multi-millionaire and proprietor of great blocks of buildings in Denver, the possessur and builder of one of the finest opera houses in the world, lieutenant-govenor of Colorado, United States Benator, and now a poor man once more, delving in the dirt for another fortune among the golden hills of Cripple Creek this, in a paragraph, is the history of a man who lias received more flattery and more criticism, more favors and flaunts of fortune than fall to the lot of most men. The other day a brief telegram from Denver was publish ed to the eS'ect that the last piece of property owned by ex-Senator Tabor had been sold under the hammer for 1800,000, thus closing one of the pages in a strange event ful history. Unfortunate specula-, tions in real estate and mines caused his financial downfall. Tabor was famous at one time as the owner of nightshirts that cost $1000 apiece. LEBANON PRODUCE MARKET.

Two policemen conducting a drnnken monkey to jeil was one of the unusual sights seen Sunday, The monkey is a member of Dod Backer's circus, but bus been occupying winter quarton as a aide attraction at Elatou'a saloon on East Water street, and was left chained daring the temporary absence of the proprietor. He managed. However, to free himself and walked over behind the liar. He glanced in the big looking Klasa back of the row of colored bot tles, and seeing another fellow of his own size picked up a decanter and let it go with his right, and Mr. Elston's !0U glass was a wreok. His opponent having been got rid of, the monkey proceeded to test the various liquid re freshments on hand. He turned on the beer and took a long, deep draft. Then he sampled the whisky, gin, wine and various kinds of bitters. Jit wusn't long until he was roaring drank. Then he tackled the cigar case and demolished that, throwing the cigars about the room In handiula. The monkey's screams and the noise of shattered glass attracted a crowd about the front of the saloon, tint the door was locked, and there was no way to get in. Finally two policemen cuuie and boosted a bold yonng fellow through the transom. After a lively tussle be managed to get a rope around the drunk en monkey, and bo was hoisted through the window and escorted by the two po licemen, one on each side, to jail, and lodged in a cell. The next morning the prisoner was very sick and held his bead between his paws. Although it was bis Becond ofiense, the recorder suspended sentence, and he was led back to the saloon and chained np. The next time he gets drunk the owner will send him to the Eeeley cure at Binghamtou. El mira Despatch. THE REFORMER'S ROCKY ROAD. A Temperwee Agitator In Austria Bute Fight tho Liquor Men and Governor. American temperance agitators wonld not enjoy themselves in Austria. A na tive of a small village after a long cat aleptic trance a year ago declared that he had been to heaven and had been commissioned by the Almighty to re turn and teach the peasants the wicked ness of drinking spirits. Boon tho en tire village took an oath of total absti nence. The district governor commit ted the man to the madhouse, where the doctors kept him for six months and then declared him sane. He resumed his agitation, and in a short time seven villages bad taken vows of abstinence. The result was that a number ot liq uor dealers to whom the government had granted licenses refused to keep their contracts. The district judge gave orders that the dangerous agitator be arrested if caught preaching absti nence. The man has not left his bouse for weeks. Deputations come to him from far and wide to bear his words and to repeat them when they return home. The authorities are consoling the dealers by declaring that the peas ants must soon drink again. Vienna Letter. Heirs Apparent and Matrimony. There are few ladies whom an heir apparent can marry. At present the heirs to the thrones of Austria, Russia and Italy, not to speak of the hoir to the throne of Belgium, the king of Ber via, end the crown prince of Montene gro, arc nil of a marriageable age, tint have not yet made tbeir choice. With out a change of creed on the part of a princess the choice of the Russian crown prince, ontside the RouiunoS family, is limited to Princess Marie of Greece and one of the daughters of the Prince ot Montenegro. Similarly the young Ser vian King Alexander has only the Rus sian and Montenegrin princesses to choose from. Only 23 Roman Catholic princesses, born not later than 1K77, are now open to engagements. Five of these belong to the royal and ducal homes of Bavaria, three to Belgium, three to the Spanish Bourbons, two to the Bourbons of the two Sicilies, four to the house of Parma, one to the house of Orleans and one to the line of Cen tres, making altogether 1 1 bolonging tc the Bourbons. San Francisco Argo naut. A RemlnUeeaee of Kupoleon. A eerie of unpublished letters of the first tiapoieon appeared in Paris week before last. In one characteristic epis tle the autocrat tells the minister of po lice to arrest Jir. Kubn, the American consul at Genoa, us a wearer of the cross of Malta given by an agent of the Brit ish government. The emperor adds: "This individual, having received a foreign decoration, is no longer an Amor "can. I am syry, moreover, tbut you communicated with the United States embassy. My police must not recognize embassies. I am master chez moi, and when I suspect a man 1 cause him to be arrested. I would even cause the em bassador of Austria to be arrested if he plotted against tho state." The Overworked Lords. At yesterday's meeting of the house of lords there were seven peers present, of whom one, Lord Kensington, occu pied the woolsack. In the upper house three peers make a quorum.

Lord Bipon then briefly announced that the house would meet again on Friday, and that be wonld then be prepared to nauie a day for the second reading, St. Jamea Gazette.
