The proposed Oregon forest reserve is
the subject of an article by E. W. 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

posse of deputies. 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.

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.

E. 8. 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.

The term “highbinder” as applied to

who subsequently became county judge

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

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. East .Morrison street should be
