Experience of a Pioneer.

To the Editor OF the Capital journal:
There appears TO be disposition

up and down through the state since
the railroad has suspended opera

wonderful experiences, and the likes
were never seen before. Old Ore
gonlans have seen equal experiences
aud looked upon them as an every
day occurrence. An experience or
exploit comes To the writer's MEM
ory which he believes was never in

Why pbilosophize upon all this?
There Is but one plain lesson. II Is
this: The things counted greatest
i'm this world -honors, position,
wealth, fame, are all as nothing
when confronted with sorrow, sad
ness and death. They are Of all the
unrealities the most unreal. The
material successes Of life vanish
soonest. To high and low there are
no permanent satisfactions in earthly
conquests. The lowly, childlike
disposition; the sweet cOntented

Of duty; the patient devotion to the

these are the only personal sue
cesses in life worth striving for after

THE BLACK VOTE.

Senator Hoar should have stated
the real reason why he wants to
keep the negro In the United States.
Without the black man the republi-
can party could not elect "a presi-

The conclusion of the World is
undoubtedly correct. The colored
vote of the close northern states il
"o"Piy all republican.
The states of the South are solidly
democratic, because the black man
Is not allowed to vote as freely as he
is in the northern republican states.
Can the World deny this?
Can il be shown that the South

harm from letting the black man
vote than the northern states do?

RAW sUGAR ROR TREE LIST


The attention Of the East Portland
Vindicator was called to the atti-
tude Of the JoURsAL in favor
Of taking the tariff Off Of Sugar.
That paper intimated that we were
not advocating sound republican
doctrine. A telegram to the Ore
CONAN from Washington says:
"About the most important concess-
ion the United States can offer to
South and Central Americans in
the conference is the removal Of
import duties on sugar. About
half Of our imports Of sugar come
from these countries. Mr.. Blaine
sought the cooperation Of the com
mittee in his undertaking, express
ing his belief that the countries
that ask to have their raw sugar
admitted free into the United States
would In return make important
concessions for Am ,rican products.
There was substantial unanimity Of
opinion In the ways and means
committee as to the wisdom ofmeet-
ing the reasonable request of the
Pan Americans. There Is no doubt
that any tariff bill that may lie re-
ported will make cut in sugar, and
that raw sugar will go on the free
list" What does the Vindicator say

the Congressional library at Washing
ton. He is nearly sixty years OF age,
evidently very poor, for he wears shabby
clothes and his bald head is adorned
with very grimy old felt hat when he
emerges from the library. He Is called
the sold Philosopher by habitues Of
the building. Formerly a prosperous
lawyer, he was converted in 10 during
revival held In Washington by tho
evangelist, Rev. Z. P. Hammond. Ever
since then the Old Philosopher has de-
voted his time and talents to the study
of the Bible. He reads all commentaries
and covers the table before him with
Bibles in Hebrew. Greek, Latin, Ger
man and French. The regular Sunday
school lessons are read and re-read, and
the commentaries Of standard authori.
ties are carefully oonncd by him.
or course his law business has long
since faded away, and he has nothing TO
live on except faith. Although a very
learned man, he is not good extern
pore speaker upon religious topics. He
fears that he may say something wrong,
and hence hesitates and stammers in his
choice OF words. Having tried in vain
to preach to congregations Of his own
race, he has, during the past ten years,
devoted his time and attention TO the
elevation OF the colored race in the
suburbs. To them he constantly min
listers, teaching classes Of men and wom-
en- in colored Sunday-sohools, and ex-
planning the lessons TO the congrega-
tions which gather at night to hear him.
He realizes that his learning Is su.
perior, and feels that he can talk with.
out hesitancy TO the ignorant peo-
pie, and sometimes his eloquonce is
tremendous and thrilling in those sun
day night sermons. Yet the same man
can not make creditable appearance
before an audience OF his peers. His
dependence upon faith is not futile.
The eolored people welcome him into
their homes, and whatever they have is
his for the asking. He has no regular
place to sleep, but is welcomed into the
houses Of the meek and lowly wherever
night overtakes him. The breakfast of
bread and coffee is divided with him,
and Immediately thereafter he hastens
to the Congressional library to repeat
the work Of the previous day in the
study Of the Scriptures. He has spoiled
an excellent lawyer TO make of himself
an exceptionally poor preacher. Yet
he is "going about doing good" and
seems always to be cheerful and happy.

Mary Ann Soroggs was not an orphan.
Itwould have been pleasanter for Terra
Del Fuego il she had been. The father
wore boots-large, broad, hard boots
and Fancisco did not like thom well. In
other respects, however, Mary Ann was
all that could be desired. Her hair was
several shades redder than it might
have been, and she was moro muscular
than San Francisco would have chosen,
but these objections were washed away
in the great wave OF passion that tossed
about the hero Of this tale.
Mary Ann Seroggs was the daughter
OF old Mr.. Scroggs, and old MIR. Scroggs
was the proprietor of an establishment
wherein Mortimer Fran SO forth was
seeking rest. Mary Ann was the god

mo which came with country board.
