A FKW WOMANMTIBK OIISICKVA TIONS. A hilly writer in (lie Orange J mid Farmer lias made the following oil men ations from real lire: A neighbor came to mo in great trouble last rail; his hogs were all dyiug; cholera, he supposed. Now as It happened I had noticed thro' the summer what poor Teed they had, mid took no stock in the chol era Intsiucss. The trouble was the hogs were starved, aud when green coru was given them thoy could not stand .it. It is shame that meu will eat threo hearty meals u day while their dumb creatures are ically starving to death right before their eyes 1 It was a dismal, rainy day when my neighbor Tel! suddenly ill, and the hired man mounted u horse for which the owner had refused $250 the day before, and rode at full speed for a physician. On his re turn ho led the over-heated animal into a common stall, threw him some hay and left him. Iu the morning the man wns well, but his horse was dying or what would be called pneumonia iu the human family. It could as well liavo been avoided ir the mau had hlauketed him at once, covering well the chest, uud washed the mud from his legs with warm water, dryluir them well afterward with a coarse cloth. Ills -ervices were got needed in the house, but they were in the barn. It is laughable or would bo if the horse did not have to sutler for it to see some men blanket an aulmal; I hey aro sure to put it whore it is needed the least. The chest Is in far greater danger than the hips, but tho creature Is deserving of complete covering. "Peuuywise, pound foolish." Isn't there such a proverb, and does It not apply to men who lose a horse, or ut least seriously In jure it. to Bave buying a few good horse blankets? All last winter "somebody" threw her dishwater and such slops a few feet from tho back door. Dally the Icregular, icy pyramid grew higher, and it was late iu May beforo it was all gone aud the ground drv enough to rake ofl'. Some people always have a cesspool at tho kitchen door; barrels and pails aro exponslve(?) I saw a man start to drive along a road, but his broncos balked. Of course you think ho got out and pounded them. No, ho did not, he justlnduced them to turn around and go tho other way. They aio wont to balk, but ho never strikes them, and save time and character by it, though lie sometimes gets out or the buggy mid tries leading them. (THAT Id GOOD ItKI'UllI.IOANISMT There aro a few persons disposed to And fault with the Itepubllcan l.tiu or this paper. The fault-finding, wo are convinced, is confined to those who view the party from the .-standpoint of what thoy can make out of it, more than from tho stand point of making it useful to the people. A public newspaper should bo printed for all classes of people, out when It comes to subserving auyono's political interests we pre fer a course that shall tend to make the party wo act with of tbe great" est use to the masses, In preference to making It useful only to tho pro frusloual politicians. The politicians can have all the party organs. Tliis paper Is for the people. Wo hope to make our Republicanism the people's Republicanism. That It not the Republicanism of tho ring, whether it be a Portland ring.a state ring, a county ring, or a city ring. Tho successful political newpaper knows no rings aud knows no authority but tho sovereign will of the people. It has no Interest at variance with tho interest of tho common citizen and taxpayer, no matter to what party he belongs. Its publishers aro partisans but not for revenue nor for rings. Their in terest Is entirely with tho disinter ested patriotic voters. ISeing for free silver we stand upon tho Oregon Republican platform of 1800. Our position on convict labor Is the position of the Republican platform of 1800. Ik-lug for free sugar aud au equal extension of the benefits of tho tarld policy to the farmers us well us the manufacturer, were stand squarely by the McKlnley hill. ' Wo have no uoIogiei to make for our Republicanism. We prefer the good will and con-fldt-DL-eof our thousand of readers of all partle to tho friend ship of a handful of politicians who keek to dominate the parly and the people. We are confidant that our courte iu Oregon wi!ltlc I meeting the approval of the unbought aud unprejudiced jxtiple.

The Peoples' party nud the Alli ance are not the same. The Alli ance is not a political or partisan nrgauiz ttlon, but many of its mem bers act with the Peoples' party.

Governor Pennoyor has no uso for tho modern Democracy, according to Ids article in tho North American Review. He wants the genuine old original only pure article with tho words blowu lu the bottle no Imi tation article. The railroad men aro determined to liavo their own way. Recogniz ing "tho dictatorial power of tho people over railway management," they aro organizing railway em plo.Yi'B' clubs in diUereut states, pledged to voto against candidates who want railroads regulated. Thoy coutcmplato forming a railroad party, representing railway sluire holders aud employes, It will not nominate candidates, hut "hold aud oxerclso the balance of power at the polls as between t lie two dominant Irtriltical parties." It is claimed that tho two clashes of persons named hayu about two million votes, aud that lu allied trades and indus tries depoudent on tho railroads Micro aro two millions moro. It Is a bold scheme. The organizations of farmers and other laborers has come none to soon. A Leading Oregon Horticulturist. KrulU and Flowers. In tho death of Mr. II. 8. Wallace, wliioli sad event occurred Friday, October 30, 1891, Halem, yes, tho whole statu of Oregon, loses a most estimable young mau, Intelligent, Industrlo'tfsTeSrrftstitndentUTlsrastlc In the development of Oregon's re sources, especially horticultural, he has done a grand work for Salem aud her surrounding country. Mr. Wallace was a member of the state board of horticulture for tho second district, aud its treasurer. His in terest In tho hoard's work has been unflagging, tho moro so perhaps, becanso, being tho possessor of one of the largest and best young or chards lu tho stuto, ho saw the Im portance of arousing the horticultu rists to do battle against tho orchard Iest8. Ills young orchard of over two hundred acres, located Just west of Salem, In Polk county, Is a model lu moro than one respect, and hat; been the scene of homo very impor tant experimental work with Insect tlcldes. Ry tho death of Mr. Wallace, Oregon 'horticulture loses a most intelligent, enthusiastic aud earnest worker, one whom all know only to respect. It Is sad to chronicle the death of one so eminently fitted to carry on a great work, '"t In tho prime of life, with most flattering proMpectsfnr tho future, with a brain ever active In devising some new enterprise, whureby labor uud capi tal could be employed, It becomes doubly Hid to lecord his demise. There Is more Catarrh In this sec tion of tlie country than all other tlliteuHes put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be In curable. For a great many years doctors pronounced It a local dlseuse, and prescribed Iocul remedies, ami by constantly falling to cure with local treatment, pronounced It incu rable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, uud therefore constitutional treatment. Hull's t atarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O., is the only constitutional cureou the murket. It Is lukeu internally lu doses from 10 drojw to a teatpoouful. It ucts directly upon the blood uud mucouHHurfucesof tbesystem.

Wo desire to say to our oltizeu?, that fur years we have been selling Dr. King's Now Discovery for Con sumption, Dr. Klug's Now Life Pills, Rtilueu's Arnica Salvo and Klectriu Hitters, aud hnvo never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfac tion. We do not hesltato to guar antee them ovnry time, and wo stand ready to refund tho purohaso price, If satisfactory results do not fallow their use. These remedies liavo won their great popularity purely on their morltB. at Fry's Druggist, Riackwell & Wllsou Blurted from tho Harvey Fields ranch last Satur day with 1100 head of tho finest beef cattle that liavo gone from tho John Day valley for ten years, Tho cattle were for tho Portland market, aud were to bo shipped from Heppner. Robert Carr, living oppoalto Shell Rock, on tho Washington Bldoof tho Columbia, sent n "mess" of potatoes to Tho Dalles Chronicle, tho largest of which welged soyen and a half and six aud i quarter pounds each. Many others of his crop wore nearly us largo. According to tho Boml-annual summary statement, showing tho lluaiiclal condidtiou of Washington county on lliu ItOlh day of Soptem- ter, there were liabilities to the amount of $3,300.80, anil aosets amounting to $23,008.09. Tho ex pense of building the new court house will not put the county's lia bilities at n higher figure than its tibsets, aud It Is not probablo that tho tax rates will have to be raised. A careful estimate madu by a gen tleman interested In tho mines of Greenhorn, aud who Is now visiting Haker City, says Tho Democrat, places the amount of freight shipped into Greenhorn for winter supplies at 00,000 pounds uud there Is yot much more freight to be taken In. 1 no largest portion of tho amount was purchased at Gruultoand Raker City.

Henry Smith, who kept u boarding house In tho same town, committed sui cide two days later, shooting him self iu the side with a gun. It Is said that lie was Jealous of his wife and a man living ut his house. He wus about 3-5 yearn old, nud came to Grant's Puss some time since from Missouri.

Tho steamer China arrived from Hong Kong nud Yokohama yesterday bringing details of the great earth quake whloh occurred lu Japan on October 23th, Tho latest olllclal figures up to November 7th show that 4131 people Wore killed lu tho various districts where tho earth ipiako was felt, 0122 Injured, 37,472 houses totally doinollshed,8157 partly destroyed, 6531 burned and 182,400 people rendered h omelets?. At Gifu. where the shock was moat felt, at about 0:15 a rumbling nolso was heard which wns almost simul taneously followed by a violent shock makluix the earth open. Tho violence of tho shaking was alarm Ing, and almost everyone felt ns sick as If they were ou board n vesstl. Houses wcro completely brought down, their roofs lylug on tho ground, ou both sides of tho streets, people passing to and fro over their roofs iu muuynuBcs,audiludiug great dlfllculty In making n way through tho debris. Most of tho houses in Gifu are vory old, nud those which stood the first yleldud nt tho second or third shook, uud a majority of them are down. When tho fitat shook came all tho pcoplo rushed out of their houses nt tho same time, somo being crushed by tholr falling houses beforo they could get outside, others being klllb'd by falling wood and tiles nfter thoy got outside, uud us the debris Is not yet cleared away, mnny may still bo burled beneath the ruins. A tem porary hospital was established by the authorities, with a branch nt tho police station, while the town otll clals started two cooking places, and rice Is being given to tbe siifl'erois rendered homeless. About 8 o'clock on the 28th, fire broke out In four places slmtiltaneoiHly. Ono was got under control almost, Immedi ately, but the others gradually spread until nt 2 o'clock the wind rose, aud tho flumes gained In fury ami destroyed 70 per cent of tho town, It was only subdued with great dllllctilty at about noon tho next day. Tho reason tho tiro raged so long was probably because com paratively few persona wcro engaged in Its extinguishment. At any other time the whole town would liavo uulted lu stopping Its course, but us It wns, more than half tho people wcro broken-hearted over the loss of their own homes or en gaged In the mournful duty of searching for their loved ones uud lu usslstlng tho wounded. Tho au thorities promptly turned ull the prisoners out to assist In putting out the flro. A correspondent of tho Kobe Herald writes: "We took a train on the evening of tho 80th ult, to Turul, which wus us fur us wo could go by railway, uud found that this place had suffered comparatively little. Tlieru wero somo cracks lu the houses, and tiles lu tho road,nnd u few miserable shanties hud col lapsed on tho outskirts of tho town.

Two temples were lu ruins, nud from Inijulrlett we found that four people had been killed, and In the adjoining villages about twenty. This sight of utter desolation met our gaze to tho bridge over the Hhloda-Guwa, where our Jliirlksu could not further progress, m our men shouldered our luggitg?. The sight from Bhloda-Gawii bridge wus awful and hoartreudmg. The bridge Itself was half destroyed, und on each bank of tho river were ruined liouaes, with their late ooou pan's camping out uuder mosquito neU.old mattlug which had beeu draggod out from the fallen house, huts Improvised from piece of board, and In fact anything which would afford lu ouy way the mere, helter.
