DEMOCHATIG SII.VKIt SKNTIMENT Mr. Springer gavo tho very com forting ussurunco Unit wo should have no free-colnujo bill from this congress, nor any silver bill which all parts of the country will not be wllllug to accept, which is tho sumo assaying mat. we slum iiavo no silver bill at all. New York Even ing Post. Free silver eolnago is dead. Both parties aro coquetlug for tho voles of Nevada and Colorado, and for the freo silver slates of tho Northwest, but neither tho Democrats nor the Republicans want to taokle tho questliin on tho evo of a presidential election. It Is and it is not "a good enough Morgan" for campaign pur poses. Both parties are afraid of It. Augusta, Gn., Chronicle, Eastorn Democratic representa tives are said to bo engaged In Illum inating the darkened minds of Southern Democratic members of tho house as to tho political effect of passing a freo silver coinage bill. Thoy don't exuggerate a whit In saying It would consign tho Democ racy of Now England to a condition of ''Innocuous desuetude." Bostou Transcript. We do not bellove that tho Demo cratic party can win In tho next presidential contest If tho IioUho pass what Is called a free sliver hill, because such action would bo con trary to the best Intelligence of the country. Tho parly Is eternally right In its (arid principles, but it will be eternally wroug If It goes iuto a fight for free and unlimited coinage of silver. Both parties have just about as much as they cau chew in tho tariff, and they had better not bile oil any more now. Landmark, Norfolk, Va, bUUatHTlSD COMMENT. Push permanent Improvement 1 aMJMHMWMWN Sulem busluesa interests look very bright for 1802. iMiiwmni "Every Salem business man should bo a member of the board of trade. Tho presidential election year will be ouo of life for the capital city. Tbe Portland bosses liavo over reached In demanding both con gressional conventions. Thanks to Uto. W. Chllds, of the Philadelphia Publlu Ledger, sends a copy of Ills Almanac for J892. Every one can ee (hat Portland wauta both congressmen no matter what the people or tho state wants. A little hand full of potty corpora tion bosses at Portland think they aro running the politics of both parties In this state. Tho Chicago Klndergaten maga zlue for February is wisely devoted to patriotism and fostering among tho teachers of chlldron high Ideals of ourcouutry. Portland Dispatch: No state in this Union Is the exclusive producer of presidential timber, and there is no telling which section of the country will furnish tho next Demo cratic candidate. If tho peoplo of Oregon got two congressmen nt tho coming election who shall bo any more thau mere Washington erraud boys for Port laud lawyers, thoy will havo to bestir themselves. An, Astoria paper remarks that tho era of cheap freights has arrived on this coast, wheu vessels load foreign on tho Sound for 17 shillings, aud whalebacks carry coal from Seattle to San Fraucisco for $1.35 a ton. Times-Motiutalneer: Thoro are thofo who believe that Mr.Hermanu will fail to secure tho nomination, but his adherents sbem to bo in no worry over tho matter and fully ex pect tho honor of a fourth nomina tion to come to him by a unanimous voto after tho other aspirautB nro tickled with n complimentary notice. Christian Koeher, of Aurorasonds us tho catalogue of tho Seattle Poul try show, at which ho was a success ful aud prominent exhibitor, taking three first premiums on barred Plymouth Hooks out of five, and many other first aud second premiums. Mr. Koeher Is to be congratulated on becoming ouo of tho most successful poultry breeders on the Pacific coast. Congressman Geary, of California, Is a Democrat, but ho 19 opposed to Springer's schemo of Introducing separate iittlo tariff measures, and particularly to the first one that tho chairman of tho ways und means commute has Introduced. Hero Is the way Mr. Geary talks: "So fur as I nm concerned no man who proposes to win political battles by dodging thn Issues of tho day can havo my support. As I understand It Mr. Springer asks tho Democrats of tho houso to vote for a number of separato tariff bills placing articles on the free list. Ono of them is to place wool on the freo list. I come from a wool district and could not voto for such a bill. If, however, a general tariff bill was brought In aud wool, among other things, was placrd on tho freo list, I should voto for It, because my constituents would gain In other directions what they would loso on wool," Roger Q. Mills came back from Texas full of notions and qui to will ing to glvo them out fur publication. Ho Is not to bo controlled by tho selected leaders of his party in cou grees at all, according to tho follow ing statement mado by him In au interview in tho Washington Post tho other day : "I propose, In so far us I am able, to see that tho Demo crat lo parly fulfills tho pledges It made when It went to tho people last election. I reserve the right to movo to amend any bill, aa I see fit, whether that bill bo Introduced by Mr. Sprluger or anybody else, and you can say for mo further, that I do not propose to consult cither tho New York World or David B. Hill as to what amendments I shall offer or how I sliull volo in this congress. If tariff bills are introduced and they do not ogreo with my ideas of Democracy, I havo the right, as has any other member of congress, to mako such amendments as I seo fit, and that right I will certainly ex ercise." 0KNEUAL NEWS NOTES. Tillamook county is giving Iw carpenters a show at tho election booths and they aro being mudo for $2. A heavy wnow has fallen lu the Beaver creek country, Crook couuty, und all kinds of stock aro being fed. llunchmen In that section havo enough buy to feed all their stock for two months Jonger. Neither ;Chowaucan nor Warner valleys had over four inches of a snowfall during tho recent severe weather cast of tho mountains, proving tho statement often made that no district of Oregon over fifty squaro miles in area has the same climate. The Bonanza mine la Just across the lino from Graqt county. The Morris mine and the T.-s Bellevue are both In Grant county, and tbeae two rich ore producers, bttldea many others In the Greenhorn county equally as good, should eUbllh faith in Grant county mlues even wltb chroulo croakers. Grant Couuty News; Th old saying "a the dnys begin to lengthen" baa proved uutrue tbu t&r. Spring has seemed to have come in advance of the day r. Highest of all in Leavening Power, KqX&I jmsm ABSOLUTEIY PURE corded In the calendar of '02, but old Boreas may yet give us a whack, and we had best not bo too anxious to prepare to lay asldo our winter garmonte." Reports comes from Davlllo that some local sporta went up on Cot tonwood and slaughtered over forty deer recently. As that proceeding was contrary to stato law, and also contrary to the rules of society out' sldo of an Indian reservation, the Grant County News hopes tho rumor Is unfounded. However, it is feared that it is too truo. O. A. Van Houten, a prominent stock man of Crook county, Oregon, tolls the Oohoco lloviow that this has boon a hard winter on sheep, owing to the great amount of rain that haa fallen. Tho heavy-wool sheep of Crook couuty do not stand rain well. When their fleeces be come thoroughly wet thoy will not travel arouud to find food and keep warm Ouo day last week a mallcarrler named Holgute started accrossYa qutua bay in a skid", aud when uearly across a largo breaker broko over hlB boat, lllllug it and throwing him out. Ho gained his Beat In tho skill and by his loud cries attracted tho attention of citizens, who at onco went to his rescue. Ho would soon havo boon drowned If assistance had not arrived. This is the third tlmo he has been swamped and rescued, and the Newport Times says ho is altogothor too reckless, as he could cross In ontlro safety if ho would row up tho bay a little further. S. Shattuok, tho welt-known rancher on tbo southern slope of tho Slsklyous, has found out that cattlo will live for four wcoks without anything but air and snow to feed upon. A day or two ago he found, under tho shelter of fc shelf of rock, two of hte-2-y ear-old steers thatrwere snowed in there by tbo big storms of Christmas weolf. They woro securely Imprisoned by tho snow, and had not a bite of anything but snow for a mouth not oven tho follano or bark of a tree to chow at. They wero very weak and tottering when rescued, but were able to mako the trip to tho ranoh about three miles - aud will como out all right. Linkvllle Star: Tho bank will como April 1, instead of Maroh 1, tho banker having written us a let ter to that effect, and will locate temporarily in tho stone store. Mr. Cyrus Baldrldge, tbe general mana ger of tho United States Banking company, will probably crentafluo bauK building hero noxt su minor.

As oup proof that ho bo llevcs In patronizing homo, ho has sent us on in advanco not only a bunk advertisement, but also a con siderable lot of Job .work. Tho es tablishment of the bank, and per haps an electric light plant in Link villo, will create considerable extra Industry hero In time. At iiaio'a, Jbauo county, is u young lady, Miss Anna Whlshman, who Is quite a heroine. Five years ago, at tho age of 17 or 18 yours, sho began to carry the mull on horse back over (ho mountains, a distance of nearly forty miles. Hhe coutlu ued at this most of tho time for two years, In some of the worst weather that this rainy, muddy region can produce. During tbeso two yearn Miss Whlshman'a lonely rldee uirougu tuis uesoiato region wero not without adventure, One tfmo she fonnd her road cut off by forest (Ires which wore raging lu the mountains, Sho tried in several places to find a way through, but had to turn back and tako auothor road, and by riding at wight, suc ceeded In gettlug through on tme. At another tlmo, lu a lonely place, she saw two large hear in the road, sho managed to get past them un disturbed, Then she looked back to see If they would follow her. At that moment another bear camo out of tho woods Just ahead, aud tho frightened horse sprang suddenly aside, throwing Mine Whlshman to the ground, The horse then rau back past the two beam and stop ped. Miss Whtshmau'a safety then lay lu regaining possesalon of tier horse.

For some time jpast the large Insurance oompanUs or me country nave nee uemano ing an increase of fire rates lu this city. This demand hue been em phasized since the recent appoint ments of Mayor Noonan have proved the St. Louis fire department to be a political machine. The local board of under-wrlters, hower, havo been hampered lu the work of inaugurating higher rates by the presence hero of a large number of non-board companies, who it la knowu would at once begin cutting ' rates it an auvanco was maue. u- successful efforts have been made by tho board companies to gel non board companies into the manage ment. It Is now proposed to place tho city under a compact manage mout of the Western Union Fire Insurance organization to raise rates as thoy havo been raised In other cities. This, la the opinion of in surance men, would precipitate a rato war between the union mxd non-union companies. 8eventy.fi ve per ceut. of the largo fire companies In tho country are members of tbe. Western Union, ami especially those companies represented In the vari ous boards of Are under writers, , Agonte repreeentlng non-board companies here were willing to mako an arrangement, but the mutual companies held out and de feated the plan. Insurance men lu the board claim that the only way out of tho difficulty Is to adopt the plan successfully employed in Kan sas City not long ago, and free out tho small mutual companies od non-board agencies by a cut of 60 per, cent, lu rates, MININQ UTIOATJOK.
