pEFFER,s NEW PLAN.

PETER has introduced Sept. 2D bill
(97g) to establish a bureau of loans
There are to be three commissioners
not all OF the same political party, one
a lawyer, one a banker, and one from
the ranks of labor-see the breadth of
thls statesman-and they shall have
five thousand dollar salaries. They are
to record their proceedings and submit
them to the president They are to be
supplied with quarters by the secretary
of the treasury, and 1t Is their duty to
establish loan agensies at the capitals
of states and territories, and wherever
1t will be convenient for the people
throughout the country. The agencies
in state capitals are to be in charge OF
supcrlntendents appointed by the sec
retary of the treasury, and supervise
the state agencies generally The
n,atc superintendents are to have
four thousand dollars year, and also
deputies. The machine is to be enor-
nous, including vast system of land
appraisement. There are to be very
elaborate contrlvances, contemplating
more business than is done by all the
national banks and state and Internal
Revenue offices combined. PETER is
brcad-minded and liberal man. OFF,
GERS are to be removed for "lncompe-
tency general Iunhtness, neglect of
duty. dishonesty, intemperance in the
use Of intoxicating liquors. or of any
narcotic which interferes with the prop
er discharge OF duty, lmpollteness or
rudeness in official conduct, or any hab-
1t which prevents efficient service" See
how particular PETER is. There are to
be loans, but for not less than one
year or more than ten years. Peifers
great mind has been through the whole
business and provided for everything.
There is to be u stay of three years
on the foreclosure of mortgages.
The money Is not to be used In spec
ulation. and the borrower has to take
several oaths, all administered with
profound purpose. But where is the
money to come fromg OF course the
great and only PETER thought of that
from the beginning, PETER proposes to
have the money printed, but, strangely,
the paper Is to have some relation to
the gold and silver In the possession

The Nehalem Times says that the
Astorian has been misled in regard to
the Wist-Austin incident, and gives the
following version of that occurrences:
con the route between Seaside and
Nehalem there had been trouble in re-
gard to registered mail, and Mr. Wlst
had several times been accused by par
ties of Irregularities being due to his
negligence, but had been eXonerated
afr vigorous investigation by the de-
rartment, and q simule request for a
prompt return Of registered receipts
ought not to be sufficient cause for the
postmaster at Cannon Beach to CEN
sure and reprimand Mr. Wist in the
manner he did. Mr.. Wist states that
he simply sent the card to the chief
postoffice inspector and did not know
such serious case would be made
against Mr.. Austin. He did not enter
or ask that complaint be made in court.
He only asked for good behavior in fu-
ture official correspondence, and he re-
grets very much the turn things have
taken"
But all the same, Mr.. Wist, being a
postmaster and knowing the rules Of
the service, must have realized when he
sent that card to the chief inspector
what the result would be. He might
lust as well excuse himself by saying
hat he pointed a gun at Austin and
pulled the trigger not knowing what
would happen Immediately afterwards.

"A
Revolution
In Eating

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery ofthis product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is well known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstainentire-
ly from everything Of that kind.
To such people, CorToLENE is of
peculiar value, widening as it
does, the range of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel, 1t confines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting color, a delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CoTToLENE is worthy of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, of itself or for
its hygienic properties.

New Mexican Railroad.

1t is a railroad of importance to
Mexican commerce that is to run be-
tween the city of Gaudalajara and
the port of Chamaia on the Pacific.
BY its lines running castwardly, north
wardly, and to the capital, it will
bring large portion OF Mexico into
speedy communication with the Pa
citc seaboard, and will be especially
advantageous to the trade of all the
country lying between the Gulf of
Mexico up to the Rio Grande del
Norte. The district Immediately
around the city Of Guadalajara is q
barren plain, but beyond this plain in
all directions are rich agricultural
and mining regions that await the
development of which they are capa.
BILE under the hand of industry. The
growth of commerce between MexicO
and the countries on the western side
of Central and South America must
also be promoted by the new enter
prise.-New York Sun.

The Vision of Rir<ia.

Birds have very acute vision; per-
haps the most acute of any creature,
and the sense is also more widely
ditIused over the retina than is the
case with man; consequently q bird
can see sideways as we'll as objects
in front Of it.
A bird sees-showing great un.
easiness in consequences hawk long
before it is visible to man: so, too,
fowls and pigeons find minute scraps
of food, distinguishing them from
what appear to us exactly similar
pieces OF earth or gravel.
Young chickens are also able to
find their own fOod-knOwing its DO
sition and how distant it is--as soon
as they are Matched, whereas a child
only very gradually learns either to
see or to understand the distance of
objects.
Several birds - apparently the
young of all those that nest on the
ground-can see quite we'll directly
they come out OF the shell, but the
young birds that nest on the trees or
on rocks are born blind and have to
be fed.-ChamberS' Journal.

the sickness first of her mother and
then of her father, followed by their
deaths, Miss Gould's life has been
more than ordinarily domestic one
and her debut in society has been

She is now woman fairly into the

any such deficiency by her wealth and
her benevolence. She owns in her
