TOPICS OF THE TIMES.

The West point Cadets were decidedly
original in the style in which the order of
dancing and engagements were gotten up
for the grand farewell hop. Among all the
designs gotten up for military balls nothing
has excelled this. 1t consists of a cavalry
helmet, the yellow braid and tassel looped
up at the side, the white throat-band and
buckle on the front and from the top drop
ped genuine plume in yellow silk. There
was cord at the top by which the cap was
tied to the button-hole, and al! was COM
plete. On throwing the tassel to the left
Of the cap this inscription was uncovered:
" Farewell hop, IA from rs. Tout que ie
puis." Turning another fold the order of
dancing was revealed. On the next fold

the bill of ex-sheriff o. O'Brien for fees which

Bristow allows that he is Secretary of the
Treasury. Under the Richardson regime,
anybody about the building was liable to
promulgate financial opinions and to indi-
cate what they considered correct govern
rllental policy. Bristow means to do most
of this himself, and is instituting a disci
pline that is almost martial. On yesterday,
Mr.. Nudge, a pretentious and noisy subal-
tern, came into Bristow's room and threw
himself across sofa in the familiar style
Of Richardson's days. at the moment
Bristow was explaining anew financial idea
to an Official visitor. AS he finished, Nudge
broke in, patronizingly observing, s' Excel
lent Mr.. Secretary, am glad to be able to
agree with you in what You say" Bristow
turned upon him chillingly. sYour chief
is the Commissioner of customs" he said.
Report to him at once. When you have
any future business with me transact it
through him. If have any special use
for you I'll send for you.. Nudge edged
out.

THE INDIANS STRENGTH.
Still the young men have left their reser-
vations, and are gathering in the vicinity Of
the Black Hills; they are about 5000
strong, and if they attack at all it viii be in
force.
The efforts of Gen. Custer to secure the
exploration of this country, have been
warmly supported by General Sheridan and
the commander of this Department, and
while it is not an expensive one to the
country, it is indeed an important one.
The expedition has been delayed day or
two in order to receive the new arms. It

AN INCIDENT ~ Some people,
always looking to the main chance,
make everything q matter Of busl-
ness. One ofyour practical fellows,
a merchant Of our city, the other
day, was exceedingly anxi, us, ap-
parently, to gamble on the result
OF the coming election, offering to
bet the best s,iit of clothes in his
store on his ticket ".All right" !"
says Dr.. Smith; "busmess is bust
ness; you put upyour wares, III put
up mine. III go you a full set OF
teeth. the very best, against your
best suit OF clothing, you agreeing
to wear the teeth, lose or win, and
| agreeing to wear the clothes"
This was entirely too practical for
our merchant, who is possessor Of
a good set Of natural teeth, and he
can't see "vere he makes holdings
by the schwop."

LINING NEws.-The latest
news from the Stickeen country is
excellent. The Stickeen river is
open, and the ice running ont in
large quantities. Thirty companies
are engaged in mining, making as
high as ten ounces per day, In
six or seven days, it was thought,
the ice would all run out Of the
river. Everybody was in high
spirits Three steamers have been
built especially to navis ata the river
from Wrangel to Bucks Bar, and
probably are now making regular
trips. The gold excitement is M
creasilg instead Of diminishing,
and people are crowding to the
new gold fields from ever quarter.
Parties who have been taking Of
going from this place, are more
than ever determined on the trip.
TO those who do go, we wish the
very best Of prosperity, and hope
they will al! secure $1,000 diggings.

Certainly stands at the. head Of all

who was absent when the mischief
was done, came in Just In time to
save it. This is something unusual
for Oregon.

Public Speaking.

utSS'"VS" '
Court House was well filled by
citizens, who had gathered there to
listen to the speeches Of the three
candidates for Governor Of Oregon.
Grover led off in his usual manner.
AS he spoke entirely of himself and
Gov. Watkinds, and as the speech
has become somewhat stale from
oft repetition, we do not deem it
worthy ofa longer notice.
lie was followed by j. G. Tole-
man, Republican candidate, who de-
liyered one Of the wittiest. speeches
probably ever heard in our Court
House. 1t was full Of humor, gen.
uine wit, and sharp hits at both his
opponents. Toleman surprised even
his most ardent friends, and is max
ing a very creditable canvass in-
deed, instead ofbeing a total fail
ure. as advertised by both. the
Democratic and Independent press.
Let''the Truth be told though the
heavens fall.
Rev. 4. T. Campbell, Indepen-
dent candidate. followed in an able,
argumentative speech, Of probably
an hour and a half's duration, show
ing why he was an independent
candidate, and the cause Of the
present anomalous condition of
politics IN Oregon. MIR. Campbell
is a fine speaker, possesses first
class abilities, and if elected will
undoubtedly make a good and able
Governor. The story that during
the late rebellion Mr. Campbell took
sides with the South against the
Old Flag-in fact was pronounced
secesslonist, is denied utterly by
those who knew and respected him
then. On the contrary, it is assert
ed on the best Of evidence, that Mr..
Campbell publicly asserted that Sc
cession would be suicidal in its ef-
fects on the Southern States, and
for this course he was branded as a
Union man. 1t is related further,
that during the war, when the spirit
Of antagonism was highest against
those who in the least upheld the
spirit Of rebellion, Mr.. Campbell
preached, while the stars and stripes
floated proudly over his head, ac-
ceptably to large audiences compos-
ed Of officers and soldiers of the
Union army. We fail to see the
necessity OF making false statements
with regard to the character OF
ability Of either Of the candidates
for the Gubefnatorial chair. False
hoods are certain to react, and do
the object at which they are aimed
more good than harm.

e. ooo-THE HISTORIC PACKAGE.

The historic $1,000 package which Col.
York fiourished in the memorable joint con
yention of the Kansas Legislature, is again
engaging public attention. MIR. Francis, the
new State Treasurer, has receipted for II, and
reports it among the list OF valuable papers
in his keeping. What TO do with IT Is the
all absorbing question. York, who surren-
,lered il as bride money, will have none OF
1T. Pomeroy claims that if was given to
York in trust for Page, who has relinquished
all claim 10 ii, hence there appears TO be no
owner
We think the State should assume the
ownership Of the package, and make an ap-
preparation OF it to the penitentiary. The
school fund doesn't need it. Charitable IN
situations are not clamoring for 1t, and the
parties to the conspiracy shouldn't be allow
cd to take it, if they should claim IT. Those
who have friends in the State prison may OBJ
ject to this disposal OF the bride money, ON
the grounds that the ends Of justice are serv-
ed BY Furnishing criminals instead OF insult
ing them; yet, objections Of this kind can he
over-ruled or suppressed. Let the corruption
money go to the penitentiary. Ii the En-
Senator cannot go there himself, perhaps he
eonld send hiscompliments and regrets along
with the historic package" Something or
somebody ought TO 60 to the penitentiary.

AN INCONSISTENT DEACON.

The good Deacon who runs the Commercial
has gained quite 4 reputation for "hopping
that is getting on all sides OF question IN
remarkably short space of time-but his
last ''flop" on the Hayes question SURPRISES
all OF his previous performances in that line.
While there was doubt OF Hayes innocence
the Deacon's paper gave out mysterious
hints Of startling defalcation, advised peo-
pie to place no confidence in the reports that
HAYES had not stolen the public money, and
conducted itself in a manner that arrested
The admiration OF its Democratic co-laborers.
Now. since the official report OF the new
Treasurer shows that Hayes turned over TO
his successor all the money rightfully belong
ing TO the State, the Deacon comes out
against his former confederaies, and euio-
oizes the Ex.-Treasuer in the following Ian
guage:
I'VE hope those who have been 50 clamor-
ous for blood. will now be satisfied. Ana
those members of the late lamented Hlgh
Court who were so anxious TO make record
will see that they have recorded themselves
asses. The money is all safe. Hayes has
moi cheated the State out of dollar. His
otIen.e has been technical violation oil an
almost impracticable law. And whatever
more the publication of the evidence taken
by the Managers may reveal, we know how
little this may bS."
The Deacon has shown that newspaper
NAV change its politics and ITS opinions
every day, without any change in the editor
ship or ownership of the journal.

ASK ING FOB ADMISSION.

There i a strong pressure in Congress Ia
vorinr the passage oil bill to admit New
Mexico to the si=terhood OF States. The bill
passed the House OF Representatives last
Thursday, but is meeting with strong oppo-
sition in the Senate MIR. Elkins, the dele
gate from that Territory, made the leading
speech in favor OF admission.
The arguments Of Mr.. Elkins to the effect
that the Territory had a population Of $780,
900, larger than the population OF several
States already admitted, good schools, socie-
~ established for 800 years, considerable
wealth, and a right to admission under the
terms Of Gen. Kearney's proclamation, when
he took possession OF the country, and under
those Of the Iris. treaty. On the other hand,
it is said that majority Of the population
have mixture OF Spanish and Indian blood
in their veins, and are ignorant and de
graded. The Spanish language is spoken
everywhere, even in the Courts and Legi-la-
ture. There is decidedly want OF homo
gently among the people, American ioe's
and customs have hardly made their way as
vet. 1t may he said, however, that Ameri-
cans are beginning 10 find their way into the
territory, and, as usual their works, railroads
and lclcgraphs do follow them. Within two
wears II is believed tha, both the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe, and the Denver and
Rio Grande roads viii have penetrated the
heart OF the territory. At present the ex'
pres trains are drawn by oxen. The conn
try is immensely rich, and land may be had
for almost nothing. The climate is deli.

THE SUNDAY LAW VIOLATED.

Oar neighbor, the good and pious Deacon
OF the Commercial, has violated the Sunday
law, but We are certain his christian friends
in this community viii not censure him
whey they learn all the facts connected with
his departure from the paths OF righteous
ness. Ii is'true that he kept the presses Oh
the Commercial office in rapid motion all day
Sunday printing extra sheets Tor
Mr.. Simon Abeles' lottery. This action was
a positive violation OF the Sunday law OF the
State, vet it must not be forgotten that the
lottery in question is a noble and charitable
enterprise. No one should suspect that the
Deacon received pay for the Sabbath work
mentioned. Let us rather consider that he
kept his men at work and his presses IN mo-
ton for the sole and single object OF promo
ting the happiness Of the "poor juveniles
who expect to find shelter in Mr.. AbeleS
Reform School.
