simply held note Of the road, secured by
mortgage might own Il bond or note of
Il corporation, but that would not give me
any interest in the stock of the corpora

Blaine did not lie in either of these in
stances He said his actual interest was
but ST., 800, and that was so. lie said That
he never owned any coal or iron lands Ill

too. He said that he never owned any

did. That was absolutely true also. Mr..

men who say Mr. Blaine lies are lying
themselves, and fear most of them are
doing it wiitully.N

Recent reports from Michigan say that
while common pine is plenty stock, of good
lumber, both in pine and hard wood, are
low On the other hand, while common
grades are dull the trade never was better
in good lumber In such it is not So much
Il question of price as "llaVe You got it -
The very small timber which is cut up by
the mills gives the supplies of common.
Timber lands are high, and only those who
bought years ago are making money.
Good lumber is - per 1000 feet more than

are weak. In hard woods the situation is
worse than in pine.

one of the most singular features in the
scenery of the Territory of Idaho is the oc
culrrnce of he dark rocky chasms. into
which large streams and creeks suddenly
discharge themselves, disappear and are
never more seen. These assures are old
lava channels, produced by the outside of
the molten mass cooling and forming a
tube which, ON the fiery stream becoming
exhausted, has been left empty, while the
roof of the lava duct having at some point
fallen in, presents there the opening into
which the river pungeS and Is lost At

gin, or at what point it is swallowed up,
is utterly unknown, though it is believed

duits are frequently found impactcd with
ice masses, which never entirely melt,

Ohio settles it. although the Democrats
had a terrific advantage in the ONO state
governments in the mayors and police OF
the great cities and the local governments
in most of the minor cities and CouhtiGS,
giving them prHtical control OF the hallot
box and returns. The battle is not YET
over, but with proper effort its end IS
placed beyond doubt. The only danger Is
that Republican OVCT-COnlidcnce may leau
to the neglect of detail.
tTimcs.1
From such Il result the supporters OF
Cleveland will draw no diSheartenment,bu but
new courage. New York is now the battle
ground and on that field the assurance is
already complete.
llcrald.l
The Democrats have no reason to be dis
couraged at the result, but, on the con
trary, the Blaine men have spent their
strength on blow which hurts them lar
more than it does their antagonists. The
net results of the most desperate canvass
ever made by the Republicans can scarcely
raise their hopes of Il favorable result III
November.

It would be futile to deny that this hard
won victory in Ohio will give tremend-
