Hillsboro is agitating a cauuery project. Oregon should ralso hemp enough for home consumption on the gal lows at least. The Sheridan Congregational church 1b still in the dime social stage of development. Oregon prospers in spite of Indlf feience to her vital lutercsts on the part of public officials, people and legislators. The only strife between our pub lic men should be to see who can get in and securo tho construction of The Dalles portoge railway first. Tho people are not interested in any quarrel Governor Pennoycr may have with the Oregon sena tors. They want the portage road at Tho Dalles. The Australian system of ballot ing requires that tho stato tlokot bo riled with secretary of slate 45 days before election, and each county ticket 30 days before election. Portland Dispatch: Balem has completed full arrangements for a fne library, the trustees appointed, organization effected und rooms secured. It is a good move lu the right direction. Hon. W. II.

Salem States Because a paper hatmeua to would man. worship some other Republican leader Is not good excuse to abuse Mr. Lotan. A good deal of tills obuso of Mr. Lotau grows out of the fact of tho defeat of tho head of the ticket two years ago when Mr. LoUn was chairman. In such cases it is always customary to abuse sonio one. A Million Friends.

CHANCE FOR A' TEN-STRIKE Opon the Columbia in Time for tho Next Crop. A TLEA FOR AN EXTRA SESSION. Governor Ponnoycr 11ns Jlio Opportunity of Uis Lifo to Serrc tho People. The Dallei Dally Clironlclo Feb 6: . Tho Salem Jouknal Is still earn estly urging that Governor Ptn noyer call a special sesstou of the legislature to make an appropriation for a portage at Tho Dalles. It con tends, aud very Justly as we think there is not tho least possible show for an appropriation from tho na tional government for tho work. Railroad building is auewdeparturo which congressional attachment to precedent Is not likely to adopt Holman's hostility to nuyuow items of expenditure aud a Democratic congress anxious to make a record for economy, stand lu tho way. The Republican senate is committed to a caual aud locks partly completed. S,eualor Mitchell Is championing a boat railroad schemo in tho senate and Biugor Herman a portage rail road in the house. Senator Dolph is urging a liberal appropriation for the lower liver. Paul Mtthr has got the ear of members of tho house committee and tho Union Pacific in fluence Is at work everywhere all these cuusplrlng circumstances and conflicting combinations reduce the chances of au appropriation to a moral impossibility. Meanwhlto dillloultlea havo arisen in connection with tho vicious pilot service at the mouth of tho Colum bia. The Inst legislature put the business in the hands of the Uulon PaclQo taking It from thcpllot trust of Astoria. Tho hopo that tho cor porate interests of tho Union Pa cific, being identical with those of the slate, would bo sufficient to se curo good sorvico, was delusive. Scores of vessels during tho fall and winter remained out3ldo tho bar for days and weoks for lack of tugs to tow them in, and t,ens of thousands of dollars wero lost In consequouco to the people of the etato, apart from tho immeiiso damage done to tho commeico of tho Columbia river. If this slate of allUIrs coutluuo over another season it will do so at a loss to producers and ship)ers of n pro bable half million dollars. Again, au appropriation is needed for the world's fair if Ortgou Is not going to bo tho laughing stock of the whole nation. It is perfectly evi dent that no adequato amount can bo raised by voluntary subscription by those who aro liberal enough to coutiibute. Nor should it be, as tho exhibit would bo a benefit to every inhabitant of tho state, and tho stato should therefore bear tho burden of it. But apart from tho world's fair wo have a conjunction of circum stances in tho necessities of Tho Dalles portago and tho pilot sorvico that ruako a demand for an extra sesslou of the legislature, with au occasion as great as perhaps oyer oc curred in nuy state in tho union. An expense or (20,000 to $20,000 in curred In effecting these measures would save to tho producers of three states an easy half million dollars. Will Governor Penuoyer bo equal to the occasion ? ' V. ' ' , .'LJLJ!! IB Till! WISH 1'AIIENT OP TUB TUOBOIITT "Tho telegraph has glvou expres sion to the reasons why an extra ses," sion of tho legislature, hold early this Hpring, might bu at least Justifi able But It has had no expectation that there would bo an extra session. The objections to it aro also numer ous aud weighty, aud thoy havo beon sufficient to prevent the gov ernor from exercising his constitu tional right to call au extra session. Ono of the chief pieces of good and necessary work that an oxtra session might uo Is the building of Tho Dalles portage road; but elnco it is certain that no oxtra session Is to be callod, etc."--Portland Telegram. Upon what information docs the Telegram base Its assumption that "It Is certain that no extra session Is to bo called V" Has It auy evidence that tho governor will under no cir cumstances call an oxtra session? If it has It has not mado It publlo. If It has any such Information It should not withhold it.

Miss Mattie Loo, a youug lady from El Paso, Tex., attempted sui cide yesterday morning by taking an overdose of chloroform. She and Thomas Whitley, a looomotlvo llro man, arrived Saturday and were to marry at 2 o'clock In tho afternoon, but the prospective groom Jumped on u puBsengor tralnj aud left her penullcss and alone, Sho paced up and down hor room in a distracted frame of mind ail aftornoou and night. Yesterday morning bIio pur chased a phial of deadly poison. Sho first wroto a note to her truant lover, wishing him good luck, and thou dressed herself In hor woddlug trousseau, Sho swallowed tho con tents of tho phial, and laid down on the sofa to dlo. Her groans wore heard by the proprietor of the house, aud tho door of her room had to bo kicked lu, for sho had locked aud bolted it. The tlmoly arrival of the physician with u stomach-pump saved horllfo. It is understood that Whitley is not hor fugltlvo lover's uamo, but thut it 1b Robert Asklns, aud that ho is from Sodalia, Mo. Some further experiments wore conducted at Fort Wlnlleld Scott Saturday with tho now explosive, tcrrorlto, under tho directions of Major Rogers und Lieutenant Ham ilton, orduauco .olllcor. Threo shots were fired with twonty-flyo pound shells, loadod with fivo pounds of terrorite, to which a slx-eecoud time fuse was attached. The shots wore fired from a ten-ton rifled Parrott gun with a ohargo of fivo pounds of powdor.' In each cose tho shot struck tho red rock, bluil on tho Marin county shore aad tho slioll, exploded by tho fuse, brought down tons of earth and rock. The result of this experiment shows there Is no danger of explosion from concussion. Tho experiment was repeated with a ten-pound charge of powder with whloh fivo more shots wore fired with similar shells, tho result being tho same as with the higher charge, except that one shell was imbedded iu tho bluff and failed to explode, presumably owing to a defectivo fuse, Major Rogers aud Lieutenant Hamilton expressed thomsoives thoroughly satisfied with tho ex periments.

Charles Mc Ilvalne, tho murderer of Grocery man Luca, was electrocuted at 11:12 yesterday morning, The warden road the death warrant to the con demned man at midnight. When tho warden left Mollvalne, bo gave him to understand that his hours were numbered and advised him to get all tho sleep ho could, The murderer scorned quiet and did not appear visibly effected by the read ing of tho death warrant. Father Creedon arrived at the prison at $ o'olook and proceeded at once to Mollvaluo's cell. After prayer the condemned man partook of a light oreakfast. He appeared to be in good spirits, and did not show any signs of weakening. Led by Wardeu Brown the witnesses walked to tho execution chamber. Thoy wore all medical men. Re porters from tho leading preso asso ciations and newspapers were also present, Btools wero ranged about tho room, In the alslo of whioh stood tho now execution chair. It In volved tho introduction of a new feature In tho provision for the, application of a current through both hands. Tho now chair is fashioned in Its outlines after the chairs previously in use. It involves a chaugo at the arms, however, and they aro high at the baok and fit closely utider tho armpits, thence, slautlng dowuward to the front. A distinctly new feature was the, pro vision of a deep glass cell securely fastened, that the hands may he Immorsed in the water whloh fills the Jars. The water was a solution of chloride ot sodium; one cell re ceived a currant, from beneath, the other from abovo. The uburI coll of conducting wire for the elee trodo for tho head dangled from above. Btout board straps were placed for fastening the wrists in the cells and othor bauds held the elbows tightly. When everything was In readiness, at 11:05, Wardeu Brown, addressing his visitors, warned thorn that no gratutlous ad vice or suggestions would bo toler ated from any save those In charge officially. "Bring In Mollvalne," said War den Brown, turning to Keeper Con uaughton and a deputy, who stood near tho door opening Into the cell corridor, Thoro was a tramping of foot heard In tho corridor, the door was pushed opon aud tho officers ap-1' poured with tho prisoner letweea them. Tho condomned man, Mo Ilvalno, was pallid and his hands, which held the cruflx before him, trembled and shook. Fathers Cree don und Smith wero at his side when he entered tho room, the oflloera giv ing way to the priests. "O Jesus, holp me," he murmured, with sup pressed emotion, and then, as con trol of his neryes slackened, be almost shouted "O God, I am sorry that I haVo offended thee I O Cbrkrt, havo mercy I" Meantime ho bad been lowered luto tho chair, bbt bead pressed back against the leaden nook-rest, tho electrode quickly clap, pod upon his forehead and the clamp ou tho rubber tuba was loosened m tho water flawed down Into the electrode sponge, and while thk wm being done, an oiUoer on each side had strapped tho wrlsto and elbows, while others were strapping lib k at the ankles and binding an elec trode upon tho calf of the right leg, from which tho troueera kg had already been ripped, "Jesue. spuro mo. Merciful God, help me," muttered the prisoner, as a broad leather mask was bound aorow his faco, concealing all the feature except the nose and mouth. The tlmo was 11:12 a, m.
