A man said to be connected with the
Great Northern says that Hill will never
build the Portland and Puget sound
branch. The Union Pacific located and
spent considerable money on this road,
and the Great Northern would not ac-
cept the work done, or put in any money
because the grades and location were un-
satisfactory. He says the Great North
ern is likely to get into Portland by the
way of Ellensburg and La Camas,
where some business can be gathered
along the line. The local bu siness be-
tween Portland and the sound would not
be worth $40 per mile per annum, while
the Ellensburg branch will extend
through rich timber, mineral and ag-
ricultural country. When Hill goes to
Portland he will do SO Tor business,
purely.

Colonel r. w. Mitchell is an avowed
candidate for collector of customs at
Portland. The colonePs attitude has
been neutral as between the warning
factions OF his party, and he is the one
man who can consistently claim the
solid backing of either or both. His ex-
ceptional popularity cannot be attributed
to inactivity, however, as he was one of
the hardest workers for Cleveland in
Multnomah county. And he has been
unanimously chosen to marshal the par
ade which the local democracy is arrang-
ing for next Thursday night.

A leading democrat here in The Dalles,
last Thursday, when asked, "if the
democrats would repeal the tariff law
and 10 per cent. on state banks?'' replied
''the platform is made to get in on,
not to stand on;'' we quote it
showing the unmanimity of the
democracy. The same answer was given
to Chauncey Depew by a democrat in
New York, on the same day. Depew be-

The Brilliant Young Editor Of The Re-
view OF Reviews.

Especial Correspondence.l
New York, Nov. 10. DIR. Albert
Shaw. who has scored such a brilliant
success az editor Of The Review Of Re
views, was born in Butler county, o.,
July %, 1857. He was graduated from
Iowa college, Grinnell, Ia, in 1879.
Soon after leaving college he entered
local journalism in Iowa for the pur-
pose Of learning the mechanical and
business branches.
His strongest tastes being for political
and economic sciences, he took long
leaves from his newspaper work to 90 to
Johns Hopkins university for post grad
uate study in history and political sci
ence. In 1888 he did editorial writing
on the Minneapolis Daily Tribune, but
returned TO Johns Hopkins TO complete
his course there and received in 1884 the
degree Of PHI. D., having accomplished
work of a high order in constitutional
history, international law and political
economy.
He returned to Minneapolis as chief Of
the editorial staff of The Tribune, hold
ing that position until the close Of 1890
with the interval of over year spent
in Europe. In the meantime he had
earned a distinguished reputation by his
contributions to The Contemporary Re
view and Fortnightly Review in Eng
land, treating Of various phases Of west
ern constitutional and legislative expert
ence.
His stay in Europe in 1883 and 1889
was spent in the study Of municipal gov
ernment in Great Britain and in the
large cities Of the continent, and in
study OF European constitutional systems
and general political conditions. When
he returned he resumed editorial charge
Of tho Minneapolis Tribune and gave
| lectures at Johns Hopkins, Cornell and
Michigan universities upon municipal
government in Europe. He also wrote,
by invitation from The Century, num-
Der Of articles on the government Of the
principal cities Of Europe, which are TO
be published in book form.
The Chautauqua Magazine printed a
series Of interesting and instructive arti-
cles from his pen on the political and
social conditions Of the Servians, Turks,
Bulgarians, Greeks and other nations
the result Of his travels and researches.
During his residence in Minneapolis he
wrote a monograph called "Co-operation
in a Western City"-afterwar enlarged
and reprinted as part of the History
of Cooperation in the United States
which excited admiring attention both
at home and abroad. His thesis in 1884
at Johns Hopkins was entitled 'Icariai

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-THE celebrated
international case of Mrs Maybrick, the
young American confined in Waking prison
on life sentence for the murder OF her
husband near Liverpool, is the subject of
renewed agitation. Gail Hamilton has
taken a deep interest in the case, and 10 was
largely through her efforts that an im-

asking that the unfortunate woman be

assertion that no proof was adduced on
the trial of Mrs. Maybrick to connect her
with the crime charged, and further that
the commission of the crime itself was not
proved
This petition was signed by Mrs Harrison,

including Mrs. Blaine, and many promi-

The Kansas Fusionists' Alleged Plan for
% Mock Assassination.
TOPEKA, Nov. "a. - Tho biggest sem
sation connected with the late Kansas cam
paign has just been made public IL is the
confession of l.. s. Harvey, assistant secre-
tary of the Peoples party campaign conf
mittee. Harvey had been charged with
giving out secrets Of the committee, and to
defend himself he exposed the alleged plot,
which was arranged in Topeka, to have a
mock attempt made TO nssnssinate Jerry
Simpson Harvey says the parties 60 the
scheme were W. @. Jones, chairman of the
Democratic state committee; Briedenthal,
chairman Of the Peoples party, and Jerry
Simpson. The object was TO create sym
pathy for Simpson and mid In his election.
"rhe plan,n says Secretary Harvey, ''was
to have Simpson return TO his district and
be waylaid and beaten, TO offset southern
outrages and create sympathy for Simpson.
Jerry objected 20 being beaten and bruised
up, but finally agreed TO undergo mild
punishment
Mr.. Harvey further says that towing to
the blunder of Simpsons district chairman
the letters Offering $1,000 reward TO the man
who would murder Simpson were found,
and the sham attempt 40 assassination was
prevented The exposure 10y Harvey has
created much excitement here, and many
threats are made against him.

comment is that the stories which we fre
quently hear of the great good nature Of
the antipOdeans have not been eXaggera-

lous concoction of paretic situations, sup
posably funny, and a compilation Of jokes
at which Rnmeses might have laughed,
but which now excite interest only because
of the respect due old acquaintances
Mr.. Sheridan, in his character Of an
Irish female, evidently intends 10 he

faster than he should, and although he

Poet Rner,s rraetieal Jokes.

Many amusing stories are told of the
practical jokes the celebrated poet James
Whitcomb Riley used to play on stran-
gers to draw them out. One was to enter
a town as blind painter, led by a boy,
and do sign painting that amazed the
natives. The blindness part of it was
only half a joke, for without powerful
glasses Mr.. Riley's vision is mostly
limited to a few rods. He says that
if he detects any signs of apathy in an
audience he simply takes off his glasses,
aud then he sees no audience-''they
