The Andrew Jackson League, a
new political organization which was
recently formed in this city, gave its
first public meeting IN Central hall,
which was filled before the evenings
exercises began, Numbers of speech
es and musical selections were given
before the chief event of the evening,
the speech of Hon. w. G. Cloudy,
who has been one of the most promi-
nent lawyers in Chicago and great
power in Illinois politics, occurred.
Mr.. Cloudy spoke of the supremacy
of law, but most of his remarks were
devoted to free press. After show
ing that restraint and restriction is
applied to nearly every person and
pursuit in life, Mr.. Cloudy said: "But
there is one valuable exception. The
greatest power in civilized society to-
day is that of the press, and it is
practically unrestrainei and free
from regulation by law. This force
makes and unmakes presidents, gov
ernors, senators, representatives in
Congress, legislators, judges and all
officers in our countless system of
government. 1t is superior to the
executive, Legislative and judicial au-
thorities, because it creates and de-
stroys them. In Short the influence
of the daily and weekly press and
monthly PERIODICALS is omnipotent"
As a remedy for these evils Mr..
Cloudy advocated the enactment of a
statute which would require that the
name of the writer of every article,
be it editorial, communication or
news, be given with it.-fDeer Lodge

A PoLrrrcrAs's SoARE.-The ques-

A PoLrr1cIAN's ScARE.-The ques-
ton of the surplus is less perplexing
than the politicians have made out.
The business of the country is not
suffering for tariff reduction or reve-
nue. reduction. All the business OF
the county wants is to be let alone.
The country Is prosperous. There is
no business distress anywhere, and
no industry that is appealing to con-
gress for relief.
1t is true that the government is
collecting from s90,000,000 to $780,
100000 more in taxes than it needs
for current expenses. But there is
legitimate use for this surplus. The
interest bearing debt of the govern
ment is in excess Of 81 100000, 900
on which nearly s45,000,O00 is an.
nually paid in interest. At the pres
ent premiums ruling in the market
the Al per cent and the 4 per cent
bonds outstanding are worth about
1,165,0o0,oOo.
While this amount remains to be
paid it is good business policy to buy
bonds and cancel the debt as fast as
possible. The country is now at
peace and prosperous, and the sur
plus is collected without friction.
But there is no security that these
favorable conditions will last. The
end of the century may put very
different face on affairs. The mar
velous prosperity may have disap-
peared. Peace may not endure.
1t must be remembered that near
ly one-fifth of the first century of the
Republic was passed in war. The
remaining years of the century will
suffice to extinguish the debt with
our present income. But by that
time we may have to contend with
deficit instead of a surplus. The
time has not arrived for radica
change in the revenue policy of thu
country, and congress should maxi
haste slowly.-[S. F. Post.

SrErEEMAN: During all of the
cold nights we have had of late the
Salvationists have not failed to be out
with their instruments. The drum
and the tambourine did not make
the most enhancing music. -. There
seems to be very little regularity of
trains on the Oregon Short Line rail
road, but they manage to get through
in from one to three days behind
time. This is better than the other
trancontinental roads for they are
bottled up in the snow, unless it be
the Southern Pacific, from which we
hear nothing. The people in Wis
consin, and other northwestern states,
have no railroad communications, and
are trying to take care of themselves
as best they can during this intense
cold weather

EAGLE Rock REGISTER: From all
parts Of the country come reports OF
the coolest weather ever known. On
Saturday morning the registering
thermometers marked 33 below zero,
on Sunday morning 81 below, Mon
day morning 43 below, Tuesday
morning 20, and Wednesday the
weather was quite pleasant, and
Wednesday night it commenced
showing and blowing and kept 1t up
until Friday morning One of the
most singular accidents we ever saw
occurred in the railroad yard here on
Sunday morning last. The passenger
train from the south came in, the en-
gineer, Burt Chapman went to the
office for orders while the fireman
was taking water at the tank; after
supplying the engine he attempted
to shut of the water, but it wouldn't
shut off worth cent, he worked with
it for perhaps 20 or 80 seconds, a
stream of water pouring on the ten
der; seeing he could not make it he
jumped and pulled the throttle to
get out of the way, but it was
too late. The thermometer in
Dictated 81 degrees below zero
and the water froze to the wheels
and track as fast as it struck
them. Everything was done that
could be thought of to step the flow
of water but it didn't stop until the
tank was empty and the track was
full to top of the rails for nearly three
car lengths. Every effort was made
to move the train but it wouldn't
bulge and was not budged until an.
other engine came from Camas and
pulled it out from the rear.

PRINTINa IN CoLoRs.-The art of
printing in colors has taken a potent
move forward. BY the new process
y thousand shades can be printed at
bnce. Instead of using engraved roll
lers or stones, as in the case OF oolored
advertisements, the designs or pic
lures are "built up" in case OF solid
colors specially prepared, somewhat
after the style OF mosaic work. A
portion is then cut or sliced off, about
an inch in thickness, and this is
wrapped round cylinder, and the
composition has only to be kept
moist, and any number Of impressions
can be printed. This will cause ar
extraordinary revolution in art work
also in manufactures Exchange.

= EHiED sGxNEF I'd DEATH:
RUTHBURG, January 4, '8S.

w.
News is just received here that K.
Fl. Browns dwelling house, at Brown
lee Ferry, was consumed by fire on
the evening of the I'd inst, together
with the household goods, including
fine organ and the winters provis-
ions. The saddest Of all is the news
that Mr.. Wiggie's eight-year-old
daughter persisted in the burned
building, while asleep. The fire was
discovered about 6 o'clock in the
evening, in the upper part OF the
house, and it being very dry burned
rapidly. The men were away at the
time the alarm was given, but they
heard the children hallowing fire, and
fastened home with all their speed;
but too late. AS soon as Mr.. Wag-
gle arrived he asked his wife it the
children were all safe, and then, for
the first time, she missed her little
girl. She remembered, however,
that when the alarm Of fire was given,
she was sitting by the stove with the
little girl by her side asleep, with her
head resting on her mothers lap. In
the excitement Mrs. Maggie caught
her younger child in her arms and
left the burning house, never think
ing of the poor little helpless sleeper
by her side. When Mr.. Maggie
heard this he dashed through win
dow, into the fire, to save his child.
He very soon came out, and barely
escaped with his life, and might have
lost it even then had they not show
cred him with water as soon as he
crawled out OF the flames. His
clothing was nearly burned off, and
his face and hands we're badly SCARED.
The fire is supposed to have caught
from the stove-pipe.
Mrs. Maggie is daughter OF Il
H. and Mrs. Brown, and sister to
Wallace Brown, who persisted in the
snow on Sturgill or Mann's creek
mountains the fore part Of December
Surely the Affections of these people
are heavy. Yours, ~
