But ler in Washington City last week. The civil war epoch, which brought forward a more brilliant galaxy of soldiers and statesman than the world had ever known, is fast draw ing to a close, and General Butler was not one of tho least conspicuous figures of an era that niado men famous, fie was a gallant soldier, a successful lawyer, and a poor pol lution, lie acquired eminence as a lawyer, bocause he was a master of laws; his' quick precept ions and force of conviction won him honors as a soldier, but his eccentricities and sympathies many - times kept him out of office. The life of Gen eral Butler will fill an important page in the nation's history. Rev. Dr. Thomas, of Chicage, in his argument on Sunday-closing of the World's Fair, puts tho whole situation in a nut shell, and leaves little ground for refutation by mem bers of his own profession who are opposed to the . fair being open on Sunday. lie says the . matter of going to the world's fair on Sunday should be left to each person's con science. Sunday opening wa3 not a desecration of the Sabbath, as as sumed by the other side. Business and pleasure were inseparable from any great movement or enterprise, but the fair was not a business project or a vast show; the fair was a school and church for the exhi bition of the nature of man's prog ress, and appealed to the intellectu al and moral life of the nation. The last spike of the Great Northern's Transcontinental rail way was driven last Saturday week at the summit of the Cascade mountains. Jim Hill, one of the greatest of railroad magnets of tho day, has thus gained the principal of his many aims in railroad ad vancement, and has ridden his hobby over the two great mountain ranges. It is in the line of the near possibilities that Mr. Hill will extend his system south along the coast to San Francisco. The Mail has undertaken that which even in biblical days was considered an impossibility. We shall attempt te please everybody If we fail it will be nothing more than the "same thing over again and another peg driven in the list of euocesafal failures of these mod em days. . ' . ! Because that The Mail ha chanced bands it does not necessari- ly-follow ; that its former patrons should be in any way- backward about- coining forward with their subscriptions and other patronage. Ex-President Hayes died at his home in Fremont, Ohio, on Tues day evening of this week. SOME STATE NEWS. Governor Pennoyer, Secretary pf state McBnde and State 1 reasurer Metachanf are considering the mat ter of lighting the atat house. Mr. Watkins. the expert employed by the board,' pronounced the present system of lighting unsafe, and the board is hesitating about;turnipg on the electricity until it is remedied. Mr. Card, aged 80, who lives near Florence, Lane county, while load ing a gun discharged it in some wav. the barrel bursting and blowing (off two of the lingers ot his left band. The gun at the same time almost. though not quite, kickod out one of his eyes. Wm. Miller, who lives a few miles north of Eugene, sold to Patterson & Miller a dressed hog that weigh ed 643 pounds. Besides the above large hog Mr. Miller sold at the same time to the above gentleman four dressed hogs that weighed 1821 pounds, or an average weight of 455i pounds. Klamath county farmers have gone to raising hogs and curing ham and bacon for the home mar ket. There is ample room for many to engage in such business at the present time. - - Crater Lake in Midwinter. Geo. J. Farnsworth arrived at Klam ath Falls, January 5, having traveled on snow-shoes over the Cascades. He is one of the few men who has seen Crater lake in midwinter. The snow is 20 feet deep in that region. The lake Is frozen except an area of half a mile in the center. He says the ultra marine of the water contrasting with the whiteness of the snow produces a dazzling and weird effect. Farnsworth and his companions had a thrilling ex perience in battliug the snows in the mountains, " ... LEGISLATIVE NEWS M. A. Miller's school-book bill provides for compilation of a series of school books consisting of three readers, one speller, one arithmetic, one grammar, one history of the United States and one geography. The books are to be published by the state, and the state, county and school district authorities are re quired by this law to enforce the use of them. They are to be dis tributed from the office of iho 6tate treasurer to all dealers at cost and shall be sold at retail at not more than 10 per cent profit. $20,000 is appropriated to cover expenses of compiling and editing books, or so much therefor as may be needed; also $50,000, or as much as needed. for printing and . distribution of books. The expense of publica tion will become a fund that will go right back into the state treasury. The contract for publishing the books is to be let to the lowest res ponsible bidder, and prices fixed when the bill is accepted. This shall be in effect for four years, and at the end of four years to bo sub mitted to a vote of the people wheth er to be continued or not. The bill is modelled after the Minnesota law. Representative Miller has intro duced a bill for a fishway at Oregon City and wants the Legislature to appropriate $6000 for the construc tion of same. The fishway to be constructed in the bed ot the river on the west side of the main fall, by making excavations in the solid rock when the water is low, so that the slope will be more gradual, and when the water is higher the exca vations will form a series of pools connecting with each other, all con structed and arranged in such a manner that salmon can freely as cend from below to above the falls by passing from pool to pool. Governor Pennoyer is opposed to the continuation of the railroad commissioner, on the ground that they have not accomplished what the people expected of them and probably never will. Senator Dodson wants the state to remit $14,100 which Baker coun ty owes the state for delinquent tax es since 1S79. Part of the amount is uncollected from having been lev ied on stock which perished from inclement weather. A measure much desired by mi ners is Dodson's bill providing for liens of miners on the properties they work upon. It is ironclad and ought, if passed, to do away with the frequent corupUinU of miners being unable to collect wages due them. Senate bill No.. 63 is probably the britfett introduced. It is IX-n-ney's, an 1 provides: That hereaf ter a married woman may convey her real estate in like manner as she might do by her separate deed if she were unmarried. Senator Looney's food bill stipu lates that cows must have S00 cu bic feet of air and provides for the biennial election of a state dairy and food commissioner, with a sal ary of $1000 a year and an office at Portland.

Extensive Reserve of Public Domain The president last Saturday is sued a proclamation under act of March 3, 1891, as to timber reserves, upon the recommendation of one of the special agents of the interior department in Oregon, creating a great reservation ol the public lands in the state of Oregon, commencing at the Columbia river on the north and running nearly through the en tire length of the state Behind this is a petition from various per sons, and also from the state offi cials, who represent that tnis reser vation should be made because of the valuable timber within it, and of its being the watershed of the rivers flowing through Western Or egon to the sea. Representative Hermann was invited by the sec retary of tho interior to examine the plats and proclamation which are prepared. Observing the great magnitude of the withdrawal, and realizing its possible effect upon the mining opportunities of por tions of the regions reserved, unless the proclamation could be modified as occasion might require, he sug gested that, except as to Mount. Hood and Crater lake surround ings, further action be suspended until the Oregon legislature, now in session, could be afforded an oppor tunity of expressing its wishes, so that the character of the proclama tion might be inquired into. The matter was submitted to the attorney-general, and he decides that at any time, upon satisfactory show ing, the president can modify or entirely revoke his proclamation without legislative recourse. EXTENT OF THE It E3 Eli YE. The length of the reserve is 234 miles. The area is 7020 square miles and there are 44.492.S00 acres within the exterior boundaries. It embraces the crest of the Cascade range of mountains and includes the east and west slopes. A peti tion is on file from the Oregon Al pine Club asking for this with drawal, but. subsequently discover ing its magnitude, and reflecting upon its effects upon the mining in dustry, a second petition was sub mitted. confining the reserve to Mount Hood and its curroundings. and to the rugged mountains and lakes adjacent to the Crater Lake reservation, which President Cleve iana wnnarew in iao. witn a view of creating a nationl park. It is found that in this proposed with drawal there are 123,000 acres of school lands, which, being unsur- veyed, can be withdrawn and the state thus become entitled to in demnity. The rule of the depart ment recognizes this right ofindem nity where the exterior boundaries of a reserve arc sufficiently identified to inclose the reserve. And legal entries, filings, locations and claims of bona fide settlers, are expressly excepted from reservation by the terms of the proclamation. An Iavaluabls Remedy or Colds.
