Ham mond published in the last two issues of the Rural Northwest, the able agricul tural publication of the Pacific North west. In this article the writer touches upon many points that should certainly be given much consideration, especially by the lumbermen and wood workers of this country. They relate particularly to economy and care which should be ®^TSpeeial attention given to filling orders for goods in jobbing lots. exercised in cutting and manufacturing Agents for the fast sailing our native timber.

This settled the tight, and Harris dosed the place for the night and quieted the contest. At noon to-day a rc|>orter of an evening paper swore out a warrant issued against the directors of the Irving Club, the most aristocratic and prominent private club in the state outside of Portland. The charge alleged is the sale of liquor and billiard playing on Sunday contrary to the state law. It is pretty certain that the thing cannot lie made to hold, but as the incident adds something to the force of the “moral” wave it is welcomed with huge delight by the homey-handed liquor dealers, who see in it a piece of very stupid and unnecessary “revenge.” Senator Fulton is one of the club’s directors, and most of the men ot the highest standing in thecity aie members. Then- are now 22 women arrested for la-iiig inmates of bawdy houses, 10 res idents of the city for being proprietors of houses where gaming is carried on, and 14 gamblers for plying their trade in the city, making a total of 4ti arrests. And still the moral wave has not spent itself. Many more arrests, it is expected, will be made to-morrow. Everybody has turned good, and, like an attack of the grippe, the epidemic may last for three or four weeks, when the city will probably la psi- into its previous standard of everyday life. Of Interest to rostmaater«. W ashington , April 8.—What is re- garded hy democrats as a very extraor dinary ruling has just been made by the postoilice department. It is that fourth class postmasters are supposed to I m * ap pointed for a term of four years, and they are to he permitted to serve out their terms. From time immemorial fourth-class postmasters were simply ap pointed to serve at th«* discretion of the department. This was th«* opinion of Vice-President Stev«‘iisoii, who was the axman of the first Clevelaml adminis tration. He never bothered about allow ing postmasters to serv«* out their terms if he wanted to remove them. Mr. Cad mus and several other «lemocratic con gressmen called U|sm Mr. Maxwell this morning and ask him to make somt* ap- |s>intinents in their r«*spt*«*tive districts. Maxwell said that unless there were charges whiFh justified him in removing the present incumh«*nts he would not appoint democrats in their places, as it was th«* wish of Mr. Cleveland to allow* postmast«*rs to serve four years when* it was known that they were competent to discharge their duties. This new or«lvr has «*reated gr«*at dissatisfaction among democratic senators and congressmen. ICMtllir I’fTROlIHl. The Astoria papers are getting rather |$eraonal regarding the fight against vice in that city. 8. J. Curtis of the Sunday Herald discourses to <). VV.

I know what an earnest advocate of morality you have la*«*n for the past twenty years, and your earnest en deavours to dose up the Mtloona of this city—one drink at a time—that you have labored almost incessantly to de stroy the liquor traffic in this city by destroying the liquor—on«* drink at a time;—that you are a reformer and that it will I m * unnecessary for you to take the K«*ely cur«*—it isn’t strong enough : that you are a strong prohibitionist—on five cent beer; that were it not for your influence, th«* churches of this city would have ceased to exist long ago; that were it not for patronage, several saloons would have dosed up long ago; that it is through your influence, your paja*ra, your undying devoting to humanity and W.

Bryant shipped a fine piece of cedar to Portland last Saturday, for the World’s Fair, says the Clatskanie Chief. It was 8 feet long, 4 inches thick, and 3lo feet wide, clear cedar. Shipping this piece of cedar may seem absurd to some people here, but to the people in the East it will lie quite a curiosity and at the same time it will be a big adver tisement for this section of the state. Professor Garner has practically com pleted his task of interviewing monkeys in Africa. He has written down 200 words of their language and has ascer tained the meaning of many of their re marks. “Aclioii,” he says, means warmth and comfort. “Kukchu” means cold ami discomfort. If the animals had been monkeying in this latitude for some months past they would have admitted that it was a decidedly kukcha sort of winter. A Parkesbury, W. Va., telegram says the family of S. S. Stewart, a prominent citizen of that place, have no hop«» of his rei’overy from an attack of hiccoughs with which he has b«*«*n suffering for the past eight days. His peculiar aflliction is attracting attention from all over th«* country, ami the family is in receipt of telegrams and letters from many per sons giving various remedies for the trouble. Tlu* patient is gradually grow ing weaker, and his dissolution appears to b«» but the quest ion of <i few days. The term “highbinder” as applied to Chinese was first used in this city, re marks th«* S. F. Morning ('all, by a special oflicer named Delos Woodruff, who subsequently became county judge of .Josephine county, Ore. \\ bile giving testimony in a case in the police court in this city about twenty years ago In answer to a question asked he said, “a lot of highbinders came to tin* place, etc.” Tin* judge who was hearing tin* case in terrupted him with the question, “What do you mean by highbinders?” Wood ruff's reply was, “Why, a lot of Chinese hoodluma.” “And that's the term you apply to Chinese hoodlums, is it?” “That’s w hat I call them,” was the sen tentious reply. Ever sine«? then the term has heen used tod«*Hignate Chinese who levy blackmail on btorekeepers, and who by threats and force compel women in dens to contribute to their support. Two honest and sober printers, while peacefully ploddingalong East Morrison street late Wednesday night on their way home from th«* ty¡«»graphical union’s election, were ordered to halt hy tlire«* bold, bad men, who sprang from liebind a woodpile.

Just what th«* roblwra ex|M*ct«*d to obtain from printers at this time in the week, or just what the print«*rs imagined they were saving hy their hasty fight, has not “transpired,” and probably never will. Tlu? printers, however, rec«*iv«*d such a slnn k of the nerves that they will not be able to get up a steady motion for a week, ami the falling off hi their “string«’’ will create a financial depression in their immediate circle.
