HOME RULE MANIFESTO.
LONDON, Feb. ia manifesto is to be
issued by William Shaw, home rule mem
ber of parliament, to Bishop Clayne. 1t re.
views the course pursued by the Irish parlia-
mentary party since he (Shaw) held the leader.
ship, and condemns the programme adopted by
that party, which he declares has been marked
out for it across the Atlantic. Shaw con-
tinues: l can understand and respect revo.
luton, but despise and condemn a smongrel
that talks bluster by hints at physical force
and sinking away at the first hint of danger,
leaving the poor people he has fooled, help
less in the hands of an outraged class of the
government.
CONTINUING THE FIGHT.
The home rulers have resolved to place ad.
ditional, amendments to the protection bill on
paper.
BIMETALISM.
LONDON, Feb. 1S.-The Manchester Guard.
ian, discussing the monetary conference, say
"a section in the Bank of England charter act
provides that the issue department may emit
notes upon silver to the extent of one-fourth
the amount of gold coin and bullion held by the
department. The practice for many years has
fallen into disuse. If, however, it is now en-
forced the bank might Immediately buy over six
million pounds worth of silver. Itappears, there
fore, without joining ranks of bimetalists of:
the country we can render them very substan-
tial help. We do not say it would be wise to
use the powers of the band to full extent, and
still less to do so all at once. The above sec
tion of the act was intended to rectify the dis
proportion in the supply of the two metals.
There is nothing improbable in the supposi-
ton that the government may see in present
circumstances an occasion for using the pow
ers which have long been in allegiance.
LONDON, Feb. 1S.-Lord William Pitt LenoX

COERCION ACT.
In the house of commons this afternoon
Northcote rose amidst conservative cheers and
said many of his party, although approving
of Gladstone's motion, would be embarrassed
by the new rules. The speaker will reply at
the next sitting.
Consideration of the protection bill was
resumed in committee. Playfair, deputy
speaker, ruled a number of amendments mad
missable, particularly amendments by which
each home ruler proposed to except his par
ticular constituency from operation of the
act. The first clause of the bill was then
adopted-302 to A.
sLEUTa HOUNDS.
In the discussion Parnell said he was followed by
detectives in Paris. and If the government desired
to arrest him under the BILL Lord Cooper had only
to declare that by the report of these detectives he
was treasonably suspected, without informing him
how, when and where the suspicion arose.
Dryer Gray moved an amendment providing that
no member of parliament be imprisoned during the
sitting of parliament without the consent of the

The Funding Bill

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-The leading men,
bers of the ways and means appropriation
committee, and other influential members of
the House, say the funding bill, as it passed
the Senate, will go through the House with
out any difficulty or delay whatever. I'm
doubtedly some pressure will be brought to
bear upon the President to veto or call an ex-
ira session Of Congress for passage Of another
favor aveto do so on the ground that it is a
risky experiment to try to float s per cent.
bond, and on the additional ground that the
section compelling the national banks to make
only the new bonds security for their circu-
lation is oppressive to these banks, and there
fore injurious to the financial stability of the
country.

The Rirer and Harbor Blu in the Senate.
w EnI

WASHINGTON, Feb 18.-The Senate COM
merce committee will take up the river and
harbor bill tomorrow forenoon and continue
its session day and night until they complete
it. A large number of amendments increas-
ing the aggregate Of the bill considerably will
be offered by the Senate. A most determined
opposition of the same character as existed in
the 81 hse will be made against the bill in the
Seua<e for the purpose of preventing its pas
sage, if possible. This opposition will come
largely from Republicans, but tsome Democrats
will join. The short time of the session now
remaining renders final. passage of the bill
somewhat doubtful. The Senator's who in
tended to fight it will resort to dilatory tactics
to beat it.

the prospect of an early commence

definitely work will be commenced

they intimate that work will COM

Progressive agriculture must in
the future depend more upon in
dividuaI effort and cooperative
measures among farmers themselves
than upon government or State aid.
Farmers must put their shoulders to
the wheel of progress, and, through
associated effort. improve their condi-
tion by taking advantage of the less
ons Of wisdom gained through the
experiences of their brother farmers.
It is waste of power and progress
when a farmer lives and works like a
hermit, neither communicating with
his fellowmen to report the results Of
his experience or to be benefited by
the results OF the observation and ex-
perienee s0f others.

The price Of wheat for the past sca-
son has probably been the lowest over
accepted since the state first began TO
raise wheat for export. At the same
time the crop has been the largest, the
surplus being at least 100 greater
than in any previous year. Unfortun-
ately for California farmers, other
wheat growing sections also bad a
good crop last year, and hence the in
creased yiel1 here aid not confer the
additional benefit expected. Mr.. Mont
pelier places the average price FOR the
year now drawing to a close at 81 AZ.
This figure compares ms follows with
the average for previous cereal years

ruE COMING CONTEST.
An exchange says:

"Already the wires are being put in
motion regarding the Senatorship from
Oregon. Several Republican nominees
are already in the field; Mitchell, Viii
liams, Dolph, Mallory, etc. The Asso-
ciated Press dispatches being under the
control of that party it is natural TO
expect the general tone to be about as
if there were no Democratic voters in
the state, and that TO got the Republican
nomination in this State is equivalent
to election. The Democratic party
cannot say much until voting day
There is every indication of a iirst-class
family row in the Republican party--a
Garfield VS.. Conkling fight in miniature.
1t is highly desirable that our next
Senator shall be man of honesty of
character, as the lack of that principle
appears to be the great crying want of
the age"

TONNAGE At SAN FRANCISCO.

The telegraph from San Francisco on
the 10th said that the list OF disengag.
ed vessels in port il reduced TO three
ships suitable for the wheat trade, and
these are firmly held at full rates.
There has been good inquiry for tonnage
during the week, resulting in several
charters at higher figures than those
current at the date of the last review,
and it is probable that at least one of
the vessels in the discharged list will be
closed today. Reports from tho inter
ior regarding the wheat crop, are very
favorable, and indications point to a
larger yield than waslooked for month
ago. 1t is certain that the cool, showery
weather of the past fortnight has been
of the greatest benefit to late sown grain.
New wheat has already commenced
coming forward in small quantities, and
by the first of next meath receipts will
be free. The latest charters reported
are the British ship Lastingham, l43
tons wheat to Cork u. X, .e3 It's Cd;
British bark LurIie, Ss5 tons wheat to
Cork u. K, private.

the first move in the game between the

will end with the Senatorial fight next
year. From the way the Oegoaian

IHE P0KTLaSD ELE7TIox

The animal city election at Portland
occurred last Monday, and was very
closely contested As usual the two
wings of the Republican party conld
not mite. One wing organized what
they called citizens Committee, which
placed il nomination a ticket made up
of both Democrats and Republicans,
headed with ID. P. Thompson for Mayor.
This ticket was championed by both
the Oregoaiam and Standard, which the
same was rather curious freak even
for politics The Republican "ma-
chine placed in nomination straigf t
ticket with Joe Simon at the head fer
Mayor The result is that the "stal-
warts, Of machine Republicans, get
the Mayor, Treasurer and one of the
four Conncilmen. It is amusing to
read the newspaper accounts of the
election. The managers on either side
are charged with bribery, corruption,
fralid, and everything else that is bad,
and we are rather inclined to the belief,
that each party could substantiate It's
charges. Portland city politics are de-
cidedly mixed.
