Senator John f. Kenna was in
New York the other day and called
at the Democratic headquarters. He
said: 81 cannot answer for other
States, but 1 can tell you that West
Virginia is going to give the biggest
Democratic majority it has ever given
in Presidential year. The Repub-
licans ere constantly talking about
West Virginia drifting toward the
Republican column. That is nom
sense. The State has been close
at times, on local issues, but it is SOL
idly Democratic in a Presidential
year, especially now, when the tariff
reform has been made the leading is,
sue. Cleveland carried the State in
1884 by 5000 plurality. This year
he will have, say, 10000"

Killed a shark.

On Wednesday a feat was perform
ed at Newport, says the News, which
was very novel and surprising.
Mrs. Fanny Seiforth and Miss Mary
Westfall who with a number of
their friends, all from Polk county,
were spending a few days by the
seaside, and while standing upon a
log which projected out into the bay,
discovered large fish slowly swim
ming toward them. They procured
a large rock, and when the fish came
close along side hurled the missile
at him, and strange to say hit him
square On the back which projected
little above the surface of the
water. This entirely paraiyzed their
victim, and rendered him an easy
prey. They dragged him ashore,
and the funny looking fish proved
TO be a veritable shark three and a
half feet IN length.

The fish commissioners viii take
charge of the Clackamas hatchery
on November 1st. There are be
tween 1000, 900 and 100000 eggs at
the hatchery now, and things are
going along swimmingly, but the
fish won't be ready to turn out for a
month or six weeks yet.
The strike among the salmon
fishermen along the coast has
delayed the arrangements entered
into by the fish commissioners for
stalking Oregon waters with Mcleod
river salmon, so that nothing can be
done this year.
Mr.. Thompson, one Of the COM
missioners, is of the opinion that sal
mon when hatched stay in the
rivers for from eighteen months TO
two years before going 10 the sea,
and weigh from two to three pounds
when they first taste salt wafer
He is Furthermore Of the opinion,
backed by careful observation that
the salmon Of each river always re-
turn 10 the same stream, ana 90 NOT
enter new waters.

The Wheat Outlook.


The rise i'm wheat will Of course
stop the export demand, for the
price of wheat is fixed in Liverpool
by the price Of wheat produced by
the cheap labor Of Southern Russia
and India; and Of course England
will not take any American wheat
at its present price. But the Ameri-
can farmer in his home market viii
be able to sell good deal Of our
short wheat crop Of this year at a
higher price than he ever got in
England. Our home market IL
worth more q US to-day than the
small English market; but suppose
we had free trade, then Russia and
India wheat could be shipped here
10 break the present price OF wheat
and beat the farmers out OF the
profits Of the present prices that rule
in our home market, and may rule
for some time to come.-Oregonian.

The Oregon Land Company's ten
acre lots are selling rapidly,40 having
been sold since the Sth of Sept. There
is no probability that 10 acres of
good land within four miles ofSalem
will ever again be offered for $50 per
acre on easy terms. There are now
five houses in process fconstruction
on lots already sold and roads are
being opened and bridges built so
that the value of all of the lots is
being rapidly enhanced. Any one
wishing to buy ten acres of good
land for much less than the price OF
a city lot will do well to look at this
property at once as there is no doubt
but that it will all be sold inside of
thirty days. Call at the Office of the

the property free Of charge.
