A Striking ALTERATION.
Portland Oregonisu.l

Portland Oregonisn.l
President Thurston, Of the National
League Of Republican clubs, in an al.
dress before that body at its recent
convention at Nashville, drew a pic
ture Of Democratic Congressman
that was AS striking for its ALTERATION
as for its correctness. Said he: "He
is always present for buncombe, but
not for business; for salary, but not
for service; for talk, but not for tariff;
for wrans ling, but not for work; for
cussedness, but not for count; for
party service, but not for public good"
Nothing like this has been heard since
the day Of the celebrated Tkeophilus
Thistle, or of the industrious young
woodsman who sawed six slim sleek
slender saplings for sale"

A Novel Scheme.

Not long ago it was stated that a
scheme was on foot to pipe milk 10

one took stock in this, as it clearly
would not do. 1t IS now explained
that the proposed method of forward
ing the milk is in cylindrical tin cans,
and propelled by water,
and the promoters of the scheme as
sert that the time Of transportation

Over $3.50 Per DAY.

A gold brick worth $500 was
brought to town last evening from
the Canas No. 2 mill. This was the
gold caught on the plates during a
seven1nys' RIM. In addition thereto
20 tons Of concentrates, worth about
$50 per ton, were also extracted from
the ore during the same period of
time. This is, therefore, a yield o:
over $3.50 per day.

The law further provides that at each Of

closure, to which no outsiders are ad-
mitted except the voters in the exercise
Of their privileges, and the officers con-
Quoting the election. The ballot boxes

fee to be voted for may appoint two agents
for each polling place, who shall act as
challengers for their parties Candidates
nominated by petition, who may have no
