The speech of the Hon. Darius Fl. In
graham at City, HILL on Friday night was
in large extent the same speech that
he delivered last spring when he &C
cepted the Democratic nomination for
Mayor. The only thing really new in it
was the announcement that 1--WE want a
post office and have been asking it for
years. coupled with an intimation
that to get one it was only necessary to
elect Grover Cleveland President and
Mr.. Ingraham representative to Con-
gress. We have been at aloss heretofore
to imagine what the people of Portland
could make out of the election of Mr..
Ingraham, but now we have it. We can get
new post office. Hurrah for Ingraham
and the new post Office! But we would
advise the Hon. Mr.. Ingraham hereafter
not to talk about economy in appropri-
alton and new post offices in the same
speech. The people will be likely to
look with suspicion upon an economical
statesman who proposes to tear down a
handsome marble building and erect a
new one in its place with no existing
necessity nor even general demand for
SO doing.

South Africa Mr.Longstreet travelled as
far into the interior as Livingstone did,
visited a number of places which have
never been seen by adozen white men,
and in many regions found that he was
the first white man the natives had seen.
''The control of the diamond mines by
the Rothschilds,' said Mr.. Longstreet.
SIS entirely due tothe over capitalization
of the original companies. Some of them
were capitalized as high as $25, 900, 900.
They are now limiting the production OF
gems to the demand. Diamonds will
never go down in price and the days OF
romance in South Africa diamond min
ing are past forever. In early days
the mines were divided into little allot-
ments of 30 feet square, and each of
these was sold to a corporation for
$780, 000-a neat sum for little land
scarcely large enough to put little
shantv on. / have seen working for one
company, and in one mine as many as
10000 Zulus, whose work, oddly enough,
was carried on by electric light within
year after it was invented. In those days
our chief difficulty was to prevent the
thefts of the workmen. We had an over
seer for every five men, and yet the beg
CARS managed TO SUedl large HuLlUolo u
diamonds. These Zulus are born thieves.
ALI the tales of Rider Haggard, whom |
knew in South Africa, l have heard from
the lips of the Zulus.
1.-THE miners are four in number, the
Kimberly mine proper being but one OF
them. 1t is 700 feet deep, and the 10000
men at work in it look like mere pigmi-
es. It was originally all one hill, form
ed by some gigantic volcanic action from
below. Long beforeithc chimney was dug
a few diamonds were washed from this
hill into the streams where they were dis
covered. At Kimberly the diamonds
were imbedded in strange, hard mud,
which had to be blasted with dynamite
before it could be brought up. 1t had to
remain year before the precious stones
could be secured. We could not use
crushing machines, for they would crush
the diamonds.
"The most beautiful diamond by far
that have ever seen was the one found
at Kimberly by little American named
Porter Rhodes. paid e5 just to look
at it. The sight was a liberal education
for a diamond expert. He afterwards
sold it to the countess of Dudley for
S5OO,OO0 1t was lost once before it left
Africa, and Rhodes presented the Zulu
who returned it with reward Of
$4,000"

The farmers are aroused to the campaign as
touching their homes and their home interests.
At tie meeting last evening the resubmission
question was discussed and find perfect I'M
derstanding between Democrats as to the n.y.
pocrisy and shalloWness of the enforcement
Of the liquor law in Portland, and are fully pre-
pared to do their share in aiding us to right a
great wrong Mr.. Ingraham's speech.
One can easily imagine how deeply
aroused the farmers must have been
when they were informed by Mr.. Ingra-
ham how their homes and their home in
terests were affected by the ''shallowness
and hypocrisy of the enforcement of the
liquor law in Portland, and how pro-
foundry stirred they must have been by
Mr.. Ingraham's remedy, which is to es-
tablish saloons all over the city under the
protection Of the law. Unjust have been
clear to the farmers that this process
would greatly promote the welfare of
their homes and home interests. They
must have been exceedingly grateful to
him for formulating a scheme which
would furnish their children when they
came to the city with the means of ac-
quiring the drink habit under pleasant
auspices. The scheme of Mr.. Ingraham
and his Democratic friends Of protecting
the farmers and the farmers homes by
establishing attractive rum shops in
Portland, must surely be very taking
one in the country. If he keeps unfold
ing it in big country towns, he may in
spire a feeling of gratitude among the
agricultural population which will give
him the pretty nearly unanimous vote of
the country.

What with alpaca and corduroys and
the postoffice, Brother Ingraham seems
to be getting ideas too forceful for hui
man logic. He says we need bigger
postoffice He says it in way to indi-
cate that the way to a postoffice is
through triumphant Democracy. This
is probably because the Democratic
house with 140 majority has refused to
build single public building anywhere
in the whole United States, and is proud
of it. If no Democrat in this Congress
was big enough to get one, won't Brother
Ingraham have to argue postoffice better
than be does alpaca if he gets one9

Dear Mr.. Ingraham, it is an opera
house, not new post Office, that the
people of Portland are crying for. In

to Congress that you will secure an ap-

you, we want one that will cost at least
a hundred thousand dollars. If Mr..
Holman objects when you offer the bill
for the new opera house, and says it is
unconstitutional and extravagant and SO

expect you to extinguish him. Don't

SOUTH AFRICA DIAMOND MINES.
Some Interesting Facts About Them.

[From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.]
Working by electric light in the desert
of Africa, with power furnished by coal
costing $50 ton, was the novel subject
discussed by George D. Longstreet, an
English mining engineer now in this
country. During long residence in
