WASHINGTON, October 9th. = The late
Chinese Minister to the United States left
many friends here and his departure seems
to be greatly regretted. He left most of his
friends handsome mementoes Senator and
Mrs. Dolph were the recipients of valuable
foreign vase, mounted upon an deliberately
carved stand of teak wood, the whole in
closed in a framework of crimson plush
lined with gopher wood 1t was accom-
panied by note and photograph of the
ambassador
The regulations put in force by the newly
arrived Minister, in restricting the liberty
OF the members of his legation, will be
greatly felt by the social world at large.
Previous to sailing for home DR.. Vow, Sec
rotary of the Chinese Legation, spoke can
didly of his regret at the new system to be
introduced by the Minister'S successor, and
pledged the rule would prove mistake in
many ways. The incarceration of the wife
of the present representative, and her total
deprivation of any of the liberties usually
accorded ladies of foreign embassies proved
topic of adverse comment.

1t is Said Congress VIII Purchase 1t at

WASHINGTON, October 6th.-The purchase
from Mexico of the peninsula of Lower
California, it is more than likely, will come
before Congress again for consideration,
and in all probability under more favor
able circumstances than ever before.
The Senate Committee on Irrigation, re-
Gently investigating the subject in Califor-
MIA, found at the extreme south end of the
State tract of bottom land, the extent of
which is very great. the soil being fertile,
but practically worthless unless irrigated
The land could be watered at little expense,
plenty of water being available near by,
and all that is necessary being to cut
canal to the Colorado river. However, the
only practical point at which this can be
done is across the Mexican border.
The only satisfactory way to accomplish
this work would be the purchase of Lower
California, and it is thought that Mexico
might be induced to sell, as the land is of
little value to her. There are many reasons
urged why the purchase should be made,
one being that it would have the effect of
giving our Pacific coast line natural ter
mination, just as the purchase of Florida
completed the Atlantic coast line.

Senior Don Emilio @. Varas, the Chilean

There was no opposition to the person of
Mr.. Blaine. With one accord all the dele.
gates are pleased with his selection. The
publication was true in stating that | did
not vote for Mr.. Blaine, but there was
mistake as to the reasons. The reason |
did not attend the Inauguration of the con-

had not received my powers, my creden-
tails from my Government, and had no
right to take part in the Inauguration of
the congress. l knew that had been Sc.
lected as delegate, but my associate had
not yet arrived with the credentials That
is why | was not there to vote, but was in
favor of Mr.. Blaine's selection and would
have been glad to vote for him. The state
ment that l oppose the election of Mr..
Blaine is not true. Ny failure to go on the
excursion is cited as corroboratory of the
story, but did not go for the reason that,
as Minister, have legation affairs that

was proper that l should Join in this in

exception the delegates were most friendly
to Mr.. Blaine. The question was asked
whether it would be legal to elect him

gramme Away.


gramme Away.
WASHINGTON, October 6th.-Although not
protege of an Administration which gave
him added strength with his own side, it is
clear that Roger O. Mills, of Texas, pro-
poses to take up his original bull in a
china shop" role which so enliyezed the
late Congress.
He asserted that his party is prepared to
take firm stand in the next House, and
the Republican majority shall do nothing
which the Democrats do not give their
consent TO beforehand.
This position, together with the stubborn
determination of Oates, of Alabama, to
disagree, not only with his political oppo-
nents but with his own party, makes the
outlook for the organization and change in
the rules very unpleasant for the Republi-
cans.
1t is evident that the Democrats are bent
on mischief, and that they will put Mills
forward to become the responsible leader
of the obstructionist methods.

NOT AT ALL LIKELY.

ian and retire to private life. Will he =?
He will not sell his interest in the Ore
qorliGn because it isa paving investment.
Harvey Scott as a private citizen end
part owner in the Oregonidn and in fact
the editorial manager, would make very
hard fight for that long looked for posi-
ton of United States senator from Ore
gon. 1t would not look well for Scott
as an editor to fight Mitchell for the
position himself. This is a feasible
scheme and in all probability is the
right solution of the question why does
Scott retire from the position as manag
ing editor of the OregOnidn?" Scott
would move the world to defeat Mitchell
and in our mind has Just started to dc
it.-McMinnritIe Telephone-R Register, II.

THE COUNTY ASSESSMENT.

For the first time In the memory of
man, property in Clatsop county has
been assessed at figures approximate
ing its real value. No county In the
state will show such proportionate
increase as that displayed by assessor
Parker's figures; the list aggregating
for the current year, about Sc, 600 900
as compared with S2,250,0OO, last year.
He appears to have assessed real estate
at about rs per cent. of its value, and
has presumably, required little more
precision in the matter of statements
regarding Indebtedness. He has had
the nerve to make an assessment that
is not farce, and it depends on pub
lie sentiment if he be upheld or over
borne.
He is the only county assessor IN
the commonwealth of Oregon that has
so far made an assessment that is moi
manifestly scaled on a 25 per cent
valuation. Custom makes usage and
it has so long been common custom
to make the assessment bear heavy Oh
the poor and light on the rich, or those
possessed of property, that the custom
has crystalized into ordinary usage
and such an assessment as that o.
assessor Parker's attracts unusual
attention, so scarce are men In tha
Office who do what they have taken
solemn oath to do. Should this as
sessment that he has made, stand, .Clat
sop county will have the envioui
distinction of being the only county
in the commonwealth, that pays just
and equitable taxes. Perhaps, by do
ing SO Clatsop county may shame hel
rich sister counties out of the custo.
mary lie into the practice of truth, anC
the law thus be hOnored instead Oi
being yillifed.
The one sole argument that will
be brought before the board of equa.
lization tomorrow will be this.
IF this assessment of assessor Par.
ker's is allowed to stand, Clatsop coun
ty tax payers, will, proportionately
pay three times more taxes than any
other set of county residents in the
state. Every other county tries tC
see how low they can get their valua
ton so as to have to pay as little al
possible of the state tax: but if thil
assessment is confirmed, we in Clat
sop county will be trying to see how
high we can get our values, and
thus pay three times more than W.
would if the usual scale were adopted.
Boiled down, this argument is, thai
because the other counties swindle
we ought to swindIe too. If othe
counties robbed or murdered with i'm
punity, we would be justified to seiz'
upon the same plea to make life an(
property insecure, also.
This is rather shaky logic, but it Ii
the best at the command of those wht
argue against fair and equitable taxa
tion in this county.
The county now has chance t.
make a record for itself worthy of imi
tation, or to fall back deeper in th'
mud than it ever was in the mire il
this regard.
The assessor has, to the best of hi
ability, filled the law, and kept hi
oath of Office. 1t is for public opinion
to defeat or sanction his action.

ADVERTISING DOCTORS.
A Palpable Reason Why They Should
Not All Be Adjudged ImpOsters.

It is invariably the rule that among
advertising doctors one out of a hun
dred performs the cures and relief
he advertises to, and among those few
who cure, Drs. Darrin stand in the
lead. Their testimonials alone are
sufficient to bear witness to the fore
going assertion, and it is doubtful
whether, among the thousands of ad-
vertising doctors in the country, there
is single one who has met with such
eminent success as those above quoted
as the following extracts from testi-
monials will show:
