It is worth while to observe care fully the contest that is In progress within tho Democratlo party at Washington on tho question of freo silver coinage. What la tho situation ? Four flftns of the Democratlo congress- ineu stand pledged to pass a free coiuago bill. They aro bound to do so by their personal pledges. They aro bound by their state platfowiis aa Senator Hill in his speech shown. Tho Dumocratlo party In Oregon has repeatedly pledired Itself to free silver. The speaker of the house Is a freo llver Democrat, and Is expressly pledged to freo silver. The house coiuago committee is a freo silver committee, overwhelmlugly so. "What, then, is all this strenuous row in tho Democratic party at Washington about ? Four-fifths of the congressmen being pledged to free silver, and controlling the ma chinery of the houso,why Is not the freo silver bill brought lu and promptly passed ? Thero is a desperate effort on tho part of the minority of Democratlo congressmen to securo repudiation of the free silver pledges of their party. Tho minority is composed not only of the few who nro freo from personal pledges to freo silver, but alto of a number of congressmen who are pledged personally aud by plutform. It Is believed by many of the prominent Democratlo mem bars are really although mostly se cretly dolug all they can to defeat freo sliver, although most of them will vote for it if compelled to make a public record, A strenuous effort is being made in the Dumocratlo party both by the sincere opponents and some of the professed and plighted friends of free silver to have their party dodge the question. Almost to a man the Democratic congressmen in the last congress voted for freo silver, some of'tuem so voting, aa Senator Gor man, their loader, explained, "In order to put the administration lu a hole." It is not the first time In tho hid tory of trickery and rascally politics that a party hns fallen into the pit which it had dug lu malice for an other. Tho Republicans In congress have ono plain duty to performto see to It that tho Democratic party is forced to make a record ou the silver question. THE STATE rODLTItV AND 1'ET BTOCIC ASSOCIATION. This organization Is of far greater Importance than many at first im agine. The poultry and jM?t stock shows are very Interesting events In larger cities and can bo mado so hero. The first meeting held by this association will bo a starter and can bo mado a great success. The young men of this city who are backing the enterprise possess energy, Intelli gence and enthusiasm for the cause. All tho thoroughbred poultry and pet stock in tho city and suburbs and surrounding country will be brought together for exhibit, Tho 'arger breeders of tho state have already glvou assurance that they will make exhibits. While It is rather lalo to got up the largest interest, tho meeting In March can bo made ono of great pro lit to all breeders who havo stock or eggs to sell, because at Just this sea sou do the unprofessional poultry growers Invest most readily. The result of the March meeting will bo to introduce hundreds of dollars worth of Improved breeds and scatter thoroughbred stock oyer half this valley, and it will add thousands of dollars to tho value of the egg uud poultry product. SUaUUiTUO OOJ1MKXT, Spokane gives Hill a million dollar right-of-way. Councilman Collins Is Inclined to Imj a reformer, Push will make Salem u leading city of tho coast. Hill or ruin ttures the Democracy hi the face in 1802, Let the battle go on between Hill uud Clovuland. There J n oliance for a ten-btrlke for S Jem via the viaduct.

Thero will not tho least bit of moss grow on tho back of Salem in 1802. Salem has no death-rattle in her throat like some towns in adjoining states. The law against selling cigarettes to children should bo enforced in Oregon. Let our city street work bo done at fair wages and under direction of our city officers. North Salem people aro going to ask for a school sewer to tho river, at tho annual meeting. Tho future of our city in a great degree depends on a good working delegation In the next legislature. Tho Iowa senator who promptly knocked down a slanderous news paper blackguard did just the right thing. There Is still an opportunity for Governor Ponuoyor to score n ten strike and build that portage railway in 1892. A city that puts up $10,000 for a baseball leaguo club ouirht to bo ablo to put up $5000 for a polytechnic institute. The Democratlo party may bo Ixmefltted lu tho Hltl-CIoveland flht by being forood to tako up n Western man. Salem should make tho most of tho first cut stone viaduct erected here. It should bo thrown open with a celebration. . . 3 A San Francisco dlsclplo of occult science tried to hypnotize an elk aud was hooked over tho fence with the seat of his trousers tessellated to tatters.

Having beou endorsed by a clerk lu one of tho dopartmonts at Wash ington, Governor Peunoyer should uot longer hesitate but fling his banner to tho breeze for a place on the presidential tlokot. Before a houso could bo rented the premises should be inspected. A rigid tenement Inspection would ne cessitate better plumbing, more uso of city water, and fewer doctor bills aud deaths among people who live In rentod houses.

Ho knocked and rang tho boll repeatedly. Thoro waa uo rcsponso. Thou with an angry blow of his fist ho burst lu the door. A desolate sceno met his eyes. Tho houso was deserted. Most of tho furniture had been takon away. Tho kitchen Btovo was still thero, but It was cold. Thero waa no fire on tho hearth or signs of supper. A fow of the child's toys wore scattered about on tho floor, hut child and wife had flown. For a moment ho Btood dumbfounded, overwhelmed by tho awful blow. Thou, hoplqg against hopo, he wandered about tho deserted rooms calling, "Mamie, Mamie." Only the mocking echoes of tho empty rooms replied. The noxt day Mr. Kelsoy appeared at tho Four Courts, looking palo and dishevolled, aud reported tho disap pearance of his wife and ohild, for whom ho had boon looking all night. Tho eoquol of tho above sceno lu tho drama of life, as It Is lived among tho fallon and sinning, took place yesterday morning at 11 o'clock at 623 Clark avenue.
