A IM KM UK'S INTIIKKST. AicordhiK t(i (ho ceiiHiis of 18S0 tho iouilu(lon of the United Ktntcs was 60,000,000 people.

The population 1m now probably 00, (KK),00(l, and If the name ratio Ih imrlod out there would be 110,000,000 people who earn wacn, or live by work. Of thin number nearly one half aro onnni?ed In nrleultural puiHUllM, and therefoio their Inter est h aro paramount to any other ultimo indimtry. Thin china of our eltleiiH require a market In which to dispose of their surplus produot.s. Thostatist'elan Informs us that out side of tolmeco and eott on about 0:! per eent of the farm produets aro eonsumed at homo and only about 8 por eent la ex)orted. This given a very pivoli-o Htnteinont of the Insl nllleanee t)f the foreign market to thonmiiur in the consumption t)f hi surplus produets. And yet, as IliMlKiiltleunt as It may appear, tho8 per eent of his produets controls or eMublUhontho prleo of the W per eont.

Then the general himself greets with unaflccted simplicity thoHC who come to see him, Impresses all with Ills munline and worth, und In brief speeches gives toall the master thoughts which unlock the disputed problems of current dis cussion. A man so frank, so manly mid ho judicious, gains conlklence and affection every day. General Harrison has done more to assist his own election, merely by showing himself the man that lie is, than any other speaker contributor or leader has yet done for him. The political influence of these meetings at his home can hardly bo ovui esti mated. Friends and foes will have to admit whether western states give remarkable republi can majorities as now seems proba ble, or fall behind expectations, that they would have done less for the republican cause If a candidate so peculiarly ipialilled as General Har rison had not been nominated, or if he had kept silent. His own per sonal strength, the hearty apprecia tion of the sound sense, prudence, ability and patriotism helms shown, will be worth thousands of votes to his party when the decisive struggle come", and justify confident hopes of victory in every western state. Tribune. I'uoii.vm.Y tho most obtuse busi ness men in the world are the man ufacturers of the United States. They haven't the slightest idea of what is to their interest. Here are tlio democrats working tooth and nail to have all manner of things put on the free list m that our niun ufaetureis can "Hood the markets of the world," to use Mr. Mills' lan guage, with American-made goods, and these blind manufacturers can't see It. They aro foolish enough to believe that the under paid labor of Kuropo would Mood our own markets with eheanlv-mado irnoita. the effect of which would be to drive them out of business. Jamiis W. IIiiown of Detroit thinks marriage isa failure, but that has noL been his opinion always. Ho has been married thirty-three times since 18s:i, but, as bo is await ing sentence for bigamy now, his career Is probably ended. Throe years' Imprisonment for caoh afleiifc will Insure his retirement from tlio world for ninety-six years. I'hiwiiiiiktCi.kvuijAXI) is report ed assaying that ho is much grati llcd with tho nomination of Gov.

The foolish story that this cabalis tic sIku had Its origin In a misappre hension of President Jackson, who Is suppoaed to have spelled it "Oil Konvcet," is again going the rounds. A Kentucky Journal, traces tho use of the expreaslon back to the famous Whig campaign of lS-lti, ami It Is not unlikely that it was used then, but Its real origin goes buck yet further to the days when Old Keokuk, tho only and original "O. K.," umhI to atllx tho Initial letter of his name to government treaties at thetiine when Hlaok Hawk, his formidable rival, was kicking over the traces and try ing to create a muss by seeking to nullify everything that ho did. The "O. K." was too much, however, for lllack Hawk, and even In that etirly day It quickly oaine to mean literally what It Is accepted as mean ing to-day that It was proper and in good form. Wo believe that the best mithiirltlrtrt aro agreed that this was the true origin of the term. Tlu Wrecked Oltratrr.

OCCIDENTAL JOTTINGS. News And Notes of a General In terest to tlic Westerner. About $75,000 have boon wagered on the election in Portland. The recent smallpox case west of Millers station cost Linn county over flOO. The O. V. machine shops will be built at Albany in all probability next year. Tlio last examination made at Yaquina bar showed the depth of water at low tide to be ten feet. Itobcrt II. Hendershott, tho drum mer boy of the Itappahunnock, will make Ashlnud Ills future home. Oregon has more trotting hor-es of the 2:30 clas, according to her population, than any state in the Union. Henry Allen, near Gervais, will plant a fruit yard tills fall, consist ing of 1000 Uartlctt pears uud 1000 prunes. A Pol Hand man who has shipped many Willamette apples to Austria Ha, is now preparing a large ship ment for China. Tho Adjutant-Gencial J. C. Bhof ner received from the State Agricul tural College, situated at Corvallis, an application for seventy-live stands of cadet rifles. One Chehalis county farmer has already cut two crops of hay this season, getting about six tons to the acre, and if the season continues good he expects to harvest another crop. Again reports come from tlio vicin ity of Saddle Mount 'tin of silver ore ledges and finds of gold. Many are positive thut free milling ore show ing both gold and silver, in paying quantities, can be mined there. At Yaquina bay, a largo force of men is at work furthering tho Im provements and strengthening the jetty. At Coos bay there is a force of about twenty-five men employed in deepening tho channel in various ways. Tlie board of immigration has a beet on the way from Southern Oregon said by the thinner to be three feet in circumference. Tt will keep company with the two pound potato, and tho pear and (wo quin ces which weigh 1 pounds each. Tho steam sawmill which Myers & Hyatt are putting in, across the river south from Meliama, is nearly ready for operation. They have a contract for :100,000 feet of square timber, and liavo placed the mill on the thirty-acre tract of land from which they expect to cut timber. Tho Man.nuitn went over to Tilla mook Hook a few days ago with sup plies for the men stationed there. It had been nearly two. months since they had been visited by a steamer. Their isolation is about as complete as it well could be, and with civlll juition so near and yet so far It ren ders tho location doubly lonesome. REED'S OPERA HOUSE. Two eiforiiiHiiiiii mil.
