FEWER PEOPLE. MORE WEALTH.



So much Is said and written about
"pOor old Ireland that II is refreshing
10 learn that the Irish census returns,
only recently made public, are quite
satisfactory. To be sure they show a
continued decrease in population, but
increased resources. The ratable valua-
tion shows a gain from el3,Sl2,0 900 in
1881 TO Gl4.034, 900 in 1891. There is
not so much land In crops as there was
during the preceding decade, but the
New York World says there
is an increased acreage Of
grass and considerable gain
in the number OF cattle, swine, asses and
poultry. Within ten years the hens
have increased by nearly u million and
a half There Is handsome increase,
too, In the amount OF savings bank de-
pOsits. These figures, of course, have
come through English hands and some
points that might not reflect much
credit upon the ruling class are very
likely not brought out very clearly.
The population In the ten years de-
creased from 5 ,l74, 1886 to 4,704, 100, and
while It is pleasant to know or at least
TO hope that those left IN ireland are
better OIL than they were ten years ago,
still one cannot help believing ireland is
rich enough in natural resources and
strong enough in the genius, enterprise
and industry Of her people to support
in comfort a considerably larger pop
ulation than she now has, provided
political conditions were such that she
could do her best. The ireland OF forty
years ago, however, was too densely
populated. In ls47 the estimated pop
llatlon was 100000. The country is
but little larger than Maine, having
an erea, OF 3d. square miles, while
Maine has about 81 900. Yet even now
Ireland's population Is about the same
as that OF all New England.

The Chinese euest,ou.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Representative
Robert Hit, of Illinois, is an authority on
diplomatic service in the house by reason
of his connection with the diplomatic service
at home and abroad, and also his long service
in the committee on foreign affairs. In con-
nection with the controversy now going on
between certain members of the house as to
who shall have the credit of forcing the pass
age of the Chinese exclusion act, Mr.. Hit
says the various acts proposed are in direct
violation of the treaty with the Chinese gov
ernment. He is not posing as the China
mans friend, but he is disposed to believe
that there is more political sentiment than
anything else mixed uD IN the Chinese ques-
ton. There are men in congress to-day,
from the Pacific coast, who have small armies
of Chinese servants at home, and in private
conversation they declare that they could not
get along without Chinese domestics "If
the Chinese finally concluded to CO." con-
tinued Hit, "and there was no further pretext
to agitate the question, some of our political
friends would be out of job" The same
condition of affairs would result, he said, if
the tariff and the silver questions were family
disposed of just now. Mr.. Stump, of Mary
land, and Mr.. Geary, of California, are in
volved in an amusing, but none the less bitter,
personal controversy over the authorship ofa
Chinese bill in the house. While they were
disputing as to who would receive the credit
for the bill introduced, Senator Dolph, of
Oregon, introduced and passed Chinese
exclusion bill in the senate, thus stealing the
thunder of both of them

Banks saw mill two miles and half west
of Hilgard Sunday evening. A man named
VIM. Hicks came to the mill from Hilgard
filled up with booze. He commenced to
play the cowboy act by making tie boys
dance at the muzzle of Winchester rifle,
and making threats of violence. Finally
Hicks and Edwin Uhler came to blows.
Hicks drew knife cutting Uhler two
times, once directly over the heart, inhict
ing cash ever three inches in length; the
other wound is three inches back of the
first in the side, the knife striking between
the ribs making a serious wound. About
this time AL Uhler, brother of Edwin, came
on the scene and was also threatened with
violence by Hicks. Al Uhlcr finally got
the drop OH Hicks with double-barrel shot
gun and fired at hiEi at distance of four
feet. Hicks staggered and came near fall
ing. He climbed on his horse standing near
by and left. He was traced by blood some
distance from the camp. The extent of his
injuries is not known.

A Lucky Find.

CRFEDE, Colo, Feb. Prospector
Brandt, while working over Bachelor
mountain, stumbled upon find which
raised him in moment from COMPARE
tive poverty to opulence. He had as
cended an almost perpendicular wall and
was nearly at the top when he noticed
crevice like opening closed by boulder
He pushed away the stone and found an
opening large enough to admit his body.
He entered and pushed forward. and,
after few steps, was within a cavern,
the roof of which was vaulted' and hang
Ing with stalactites, which showed
Groupings Of silver ore running $4,000
10 the ton. This chamber is fifty feet
wide and 200 feet long, and contains
enough ore on the surface TO make
Brandt millionaire. Besides silver, the
cavern contains utensils and skeletons,
and the remains are evidently those of
cliff dwellers; but antiquarian discovery
Is LOST in the interest OF the phenomenal
silver find. Brandt reported the find
here, and the town, used as it is to re-
ports of big strikes, went wild. Hun.
dreds left for the Cliff Dwellers' claim,
as it is called, at once. Brandt and bis

100000 cash for the claim by syndi-
cate of California capitalists, but they re
fused.

Important Questlon pecIaed.

SALEM, Or, Feb. 22.-In the supreme
court to-day an interesting suit was ended.
The case of Elliott VS.. Oliver is a mandamus
proceeding brought by the appellant, as re-
ceiver of conveyances for Union county, to
recover certain records which the appellant
claims the right to and custody of by virtue of
his Office. Upon the petition being filed an
alternative writ was issued and to this writ the
respondent demurred. The demurrer was
sustained and the action dismissed. From
this judgement, the appellant appealed and
assigned as error, sustaining the demurrer and
the judgment of dismissal. Oliver. the
respondent, as county clerk of Union county,
had possession of the records in question, and
this case is of utmost importance to every
county recorder in Oregon. The constitution
ality of the office of recorder of deeds was not
passed upon, the court decl ming to consider
SO grave question where the record itself
was defective, bu the opinion contains brief
dictum that the law creating the office of
recorder in Union county is probably con-
stitutional. The tendency, said Judge Strahan,
of this decision is to leave the condition of
affairs under the various acts creating re-
corders in the several counties undisputed.

Evidently there is some reciprocity
wanted at Newfoundland. One Of the
papers there accuses American fishermen
of smuggling quantities of goods into the
island of fogs, ito the detriment of our
revenue and of Newfoundland traders"
The American fishing schooners touch at
the island of St. Pierre, off the coast be-
tween Fortune and Placentia bays. They
go there to find out where the herring
catch is. But somehow when they come
to Newfoundland they have on board a
large quantity ''of rum, gin, tea and to-
bacco." They did not carry these articles
from the United States with them, and
the said goods never paid duty at st.
Pierre. The American fishermen must
have fished them up out of the sea.

A Feast Ends in Madness.

LoREDo, Tex, Feb. 22.-Julio Vargas,
a ranchnan who lives about forty miles
across the Mexican border, was 10 town
last week and told a terrible story OF re
vepge, which had been taken by an old
woman in his neighborhood. There had
been a feud between two families IN his
vicinity. and this feud drew in several
other families, until there was regular
neighborhood war. The Pinzonas and
battle five OF the male members Of the
PInzona family were killed and left on
the field. This was several years ago,
and with the killing there were left no
male members of the Pinzona family.
This caused the feud to gradually die out
between the other people who had been
drawn into IT, and in fact the whole oc-
currence bad been almost forgotten by
the people, amorg whom mans life
counts for very little. There was one
person, however, who had sworn so'emn
oath as binding as the vendetta oath Of
the Siciliaus. This was Old Marguerite
Pinzona, the mother of the family. She
became recluse and was looked upon as
a sort of witch by the people, and lived
uumolested. She spent much time
among herbs and became famed for her
cures Size also became noted as cook.
and whenever any of the wealthy families
gave dinner it became customary to
call upon old Marguerite to assist in pre-
pairing the dainties About a month ago
Marguerite was sent for TO superintend
the cooking f dinner for family, and
the guests of honor on the occasion wsre
fonr male members of the Morelos family.
The old woman insisted on waiting on
the table as well as cooking the food, and
she gave to each of the Morelos family a
specially prepared dish. The result was
that the four are now raving maniacs
having eaten of d decoction OF the deadly
locoweed, the effects of which are to
poison the mind to such an extent that
the partaker thereof goes raving mad.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Democracy will not he very
popular in the west with its free-wool
and protected manufactures bill. If
the east were not to be cajoled the
latter would never have been inserted
In the bill, and the party would come
out squarely on free-trade basis.
1t will not do this, while it can cap
ture single vote by equivocatlne.
An open river is the earnest prayer
of the northwest, and this can only be
accomplished by the completion of the
locks at the Cascades and the removal
of the Instructions in the river above
this city. All other objects must be
sacrificed to this object. With free
river to seaboard, without breaking
cargo, the Inland Empire would lie
very remunerative to farmers and
sheep-raisers.
The Democrats in congress are hav-
ing very interesting time On the sill
yer question, and several stormy
scenes have been enacted in the house.
1t is not such smooth sailing for the
free-coinage men as was expected, for
there are enough Democrats in favor
of honest money to cause little jar in
the proceedings. However, it is to be
hoped that both the Springer free wool
bill and the free-coinage measure will
pass the lower house of congress; for
these will insure success to Republi-
cans in November.
The speakers at the Republican club
last night emphasized the facts that
the party for the past twenty FIVE
years had advocated the payment of
the national debt as contracted, the
support of American industries, as
contradistinguished from any help
given to foreign manufactures, and be-
lleyed in the protection of American
citizens wherever they were. These
are the bedrock principles of the party,
and they will exist as long as patriot
ism is the actuating principle in the
minds of Americans, and love of home
is paramount TO all others.
The land bill in parliament is not
meeting with favor from the liberals |
or home-rulers, and it is doubtful if it
will pass. To draft measure which |
will eliminate this question from Brit
ish politics will be most difficult, and |
the Salisbury ministry is not equal to
the task. During the lapse of cen
turies many evils have become i'm
bedded in the land system of Ireland
and other portions of the empire
which it will take long years to
eradicate, except by revolution, and
the British peoples are too conserva-
tive to pattern after France in 1898.
The Malta 1mbroglio, the Behring
sea trouble and the Chilian controver-
sy-all settled durin g the present ad-
ministration without the least disturb
ance of our peaceful relations with
foreign nations-furnish evidence of
the ability of those at the head
of the nation. If any other pol
icy had been adopted than the
one that was, the country would have
suffered the effects Of war, and extra
debts would have been entailed upon
the citizens of the United States. To
declare war, at the least provocation,
would have been disastrous in more
ways than one, and the amlcable way
of settling the difficulty is by far the
most desirable.
