Bachelor Presidents.

The Augusta Chronicle says that if Gov
ernor Hill would marry it would increase
his chance for the Presidency. Possibly,
but the record seems against the theory.
The first bachelor the Democrats ever NOM
mated was Buchanan, and he was elected.
They then failed with four successive bene-
diets, but when they nominated the bache-
lorNTilden they elected him. Then they
failed with their next man, benedict, but
when they nominated the bachelor Cleye-
land they carried the country, only 10 lose
it four years later with the same candidate
as married man. Democratic luck seems
20 run rather 10 bachelors.

A BILL is pending in the Ohio Legislature
providing for the election Of Presidential
electors by congressional districts. 1t has
been fayorably reported from the commit
tee, but has not been put on its passage,
because the representative in charge Is
waiting to find out what will be the fate oil
the Force bill before he will press his
measure to conclusion, its object being
entirely Of retaliatory nature. This 10
only one Of the evils which the enactment
of the Election bill would precipitate. 1t
is certain to inaugurate not only period
Of confusion and disorder in the South, but
a period Of INSCRIPTIONS antagonism in the
North. where party interests are involved.

A Very Slow Car.

The famous Oregon on Wheels, !"
car, concerning which items have APP
peared in the newspapers of the safe
for the past eleven months, is said to
be nearing comnletion. 1t is to be
hoped that this is true, and that it will
pass along this way in time to get
II full supply of ice before the winter
expires. That reminds us that several
letters were received here giving dates
on which some representative of the
scheme would be here to arrange for
contributions to the exhibit. The rep
resentative never showed up, and we
believe he found a better job by being
imported from Mexico, with the Zap

Afternoon Dancing.

They are giving sunlight cotillons in
Brooklyn. Nobody knows exactly how
the fashion started, and it is usually ad-
mitted that it could not possibly have
gained foothold in any other city. But
the cotillons are a success, and the wealth
of good sense back of the idea is begin
ming to attract the attention of society
matrons in New York. The propensity
of the young girl to dance is recognized.
and if she is stopped in her desire to keep
bobbing up and down to music she feels
that her approach to womanhood is a
dismal and monotonous one. If she
must dance-and she must-it seems that
Saturday afternoon cotillons, in broad
daylight, are far more healthy and sensi-
bic than when dancing begins at mid
night and ends at O'clock in the morn
ing. The dancing begins at o'clock
and ends at 6. The women wear light
gowns and the men frock coats. There
is music, Il profusion of flowers, light
refreshments, and then nearly all Of the
dancers go off to attend dinner parties
at half.past I o'clock, Everybody sleeps
late on Sunday, and there is Il maximum
amount of fun to minimum amount of
discomfort. New York Letter.

For n Mill.

Mr. George c, Jones, of Appleton,
Wisconsin, has been here for some
time examining into the resources of
this section, pri'cipally with an eye to
purchasing timber lands but inciden-
tally is looking into other of our re-
sources. 1t is to be hoped that he may
find encouragement in his laudable in
tentons, and we hope to be able to
state that mill will he built here
through his efforts. There is not a
finer location in the Northwest, and
we incline to the opinion that Mr..
Jones agrees with this idea.

A Young Financier.

When the congregational church
was dedicated some time ago, the min
listers returning to Portland took up Il
collection on the cars to be applied in
purchasing pell for the church. The
collection amounted to SIS, and was sent
here with instructions to lend it to the
Sunday school children for investment
the proceeds to be used in buying the
bell aforesaid Most of the amounts
loaned were from five to ten cents, but
Roy Slocum, who bids fair to some day
be a Napoleon of finance, got onto a
scheme recently, and borrowed a dol
lar of the funds. With this he pur-
chased of Mrs Mccoy three Maltese
kittens, and returning to town sold
two of them for IS cents each, clearing
fifty cents and still having one kitten
as velvet to speculate on. Mrs Mccoy,
learning the use the money was to be
put to, generously donated the dollar
to the fund 50 that the transaction now
shows net gain of so. There is all
old saying about "belling the cat, but
this is case of the cat belling the
church.
