The popular doctrine that money
must be used plentifully to influence
legislation has been terribly shaken
up by the results of the trial of the
French official bride takers. 1t is a
satisfaction to know that the out
ragged Panama stockholders will at
least get back of their money the
$4,000 which Baihaut, the minister
of public works, took as his share of
the spOils.

The brOr. re monument to Christie
pher Columbus, erected by the Worlds
Columbian exposition on the lake
front at the foot of Congress street,
Chicago, was unveiled with appropri-
ate ceremonies. The idea of erecting
this monument emanated from a
sentiment that thereshould be q suit
able and lasting memorial of the ex-
plorer which would stand after the
worlds fair buildings had been torn
down. The movement was given Inn
petus at a meeting of the board of di-
rectors, held November q, 1891, at
which a resolution appointing q COM
mittee to secure the necessary ordi-
nance and ascertain the cost Of the
work was passed. Designs were SUBJ
mitted to the committee by famous
sculptors, and the work was finally
awarded to Howard Kretchmar. OF
Chicago. The height Of the statue.
heroic size, is twenty feet. Its pedes-
tai of Maine granite is thirty feet,
making a total altitude Of fifty feet.
The figure has had the approval Of
many artists and critics and is said to
be the largest bronze statue in the
United States. The monument costs
$4,000 and will revert to the city OF
Chicago at the close Of the fair. It
was unveiled by the little daughter Of
Fred Peck, Mayor Harrison and
others spoke.

Magnificent Marble Memorial to the Grea,
Or~nithologist.

Magnificent Marble Memorial to the Great
~Ornithologist.
For over thirty years the remains of
John James Audubon, acknowledged
the world over to have been the
greatest ornithologist and naturalist
of his time, have rested in an obscure
corner of Trinity cemetery at Amster-
dam avenue and One Hundred and
Fifty-tifth street. The public spirit
of the nineteenth century has, how
ever. done jlstice to the memory of a
man who has taught the American
people more about birds than any
other man who ever lived, and last
week in the presence of a large assem-
blage, including many descendants of
the Audubon family, a magnificent
monument was unveiled to his mem
DRY, in Trinity cemetery, New York.
Among those present were many
members of the New York Academy
of Sciences and other scientific organ
izations. The unwilling ceremony
was simple but impressive. The
principal address was delivered by
Prof. Thomas Eggletson. Inthee even
ing there was a memorial meeting of
the New York Academy of Sciences
at the Museum of Natural History, at
which a eulogy on Audubon was de-
livered by eX-President e. G. Elliott,
of the American Ornithologists'
union.
The monument has the form of a
Celto-Runic cross, a wheel encircling
the arms OF a cross, while Runic trac-
cry of quaint design relieves the
carved figures of birds and animals.
On the base is the face of the dead Or
nithologist. The monument is
twenty-five feet high, and the cross is
one solid piece, weighing seven tons,
and rising to a height of nineteen
feet. In the panels at the foot of the
cross appear two NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.,
reading: "Oh, All Ye Fowls of the
Air, Bless Ye the Lord; Praise Him
and Magnify Him Forever" The
other reads: "Oh, All Ye Beasts and
Cattle, Bless We the Lord: Praise
Him; Magnify Him Forever"
The cost Of the monument was &c.
600, and was executed by R. c. Fish
er, of New York.
This tribute to Audubon comes al
most altogether from New York, for
it is in that city that he passed the
greater part of his life and accom-.
plished his most lasting results in the
line Of his life work. Although born
a French subject in Louisiana before
its cession, and although the early
years Of his life were spent in France,
1T was in America that he had his
trials, and here also that he had his
great successes.
His life reads like a romance. One
day a gentleman of fashion in New
York, the next a farmer in Pennsyl-
vania, then q storekeeper in Louis
lana, but all the time following out
his ornithological intuitions and los
ing sight of all business in his favor

He considers the Sherman Act a
peril to the country and must be re-

The Cabinet and Federal appoint

this city and the bachelor members,
think this real good idea and
also that your estimate of Carson
girls is none too high.
1t seems that what we need is a
series of balls and parties during the

acquainted. What's the matter with
the APPEAL starting a Matrimonial
Bureau and get this thing on bust
ness basis. Yours.

The APPEAL has about all 1t can
attend to now without starting a
Matrimonial Bureau. Any lady
who desires to advertise for a cor
respondent with matrimonial intent
can do free of charge in the APPEAL.
The same invitation is extended to
any member of the Legislature.
The APPEAL will also print free of
charge the wedding invitations of
any member who marries Carson
girl inside of 80 days. We mean
business.

THE NICARAGUA RESOLU-
TION.

There is no doubt that every citi-
zen OF Nevada is anxious to see the
completion of the Nicaraugua Canal.
1t would reduce freights IN this State
and be a great benefit to everybody,
Our representatives at Washing
ton are well aware that this sympa-
thy for the canal is almost unani-
nous in this State. To further
hamper them with resolutions and
instructions is, the APPEAL thinks, a
mistake, for the reason that if so
handicapped they will not be able to
work the levers for silver as they
would otherwise.
For instance. the men who are en-
cheering the big canal scheme in
Congress wart all the help they can
secure. If Nevada's representatives
are already tied up with resolution
they can do no trading. If they
wera foot loose they could say to the
canal men, "We will give you two
votes if you will give US some assis-
lance on the free coinage bill and
if you don't keep your crowd in line
for free coinage we will slaughter
vour scheme y
We believe in leaving our silver
representatives in Congress in such
shape that they will be free to fight
as they please for silver, throwing
everything else overheard to secure
it.

Clarke's Berries.


Fred A. Clarke of Pleasant Home,
Or, called this morning. He is the
originator of the now famous Clarke's
Seeding strawberries, early and late
varieties. These berries have proved
the most remunerative of any variety
yet found. They are of uniformly large
size, handsome and of delicate flavor.
Hood River is indebted to this variety
for an almost national reputation,
though The Dalles beat them this year.
Clarke's varieties do splendidly without
irrigation on hill land, but the method
employed at Hood River is by irrigation.
Mr.. Clarke, accompanied by Hon. T. R.
Coon of Hood River, was driven out in
the country in the afternoon to inspect
several of the fruit farms.

Special Correspondence.
The ancient saw "more rain more
rest" does not apply to- the locks.
Work goes right along despite the Cas-
cade-concentrated Oregon mist; and as
for the rain, it keeps right along, also,
doing business at the old stand.
The railway to the Herman creek
quarry has been completed, and the
quarrymen are busily getting out very
superior rock, gray basalt.
Supt. Hobart, of the state portage,
has taken all needful care of the state
property, so that there is very little
danger of any of it being carried nearer
to Salem by the freshet. Nothing short
of mandamus can move it under its
weight of ballast.
Our people miss the boats very much,
and am asked to put in a special plea
for more service. If the Regulator
could make two trips week, say
Wednesdays and Saturdays, it would
help them out very much. Our butcher
has been getting all his beef cattle up
the river, and feels cramped now, and
others all along the line, who have been
prospecting under the benign influences
of cheap freights and squarer service,
join in asking for the boats. If two
trips a. week are impracticable, then let
the Saturdays trip be an all day one,
starting earlier in the morning and stay
ing at the Locks until or O'Clock.
This would give your people regular
excursion day; time to visit here, and
good day at any of the beautiful land
ings on the middle river for fishing, etc.
Camping would be encouraged and a
fine business built up. Excuse our sug-
gestions, but we are true friends of the
Regulator line. The q. P. would be
doing double its business in Oregon, if
it had paid more attention to its way
points in the state. This is too big a
country to be bottled up, and the folks
who help to uncork it viii help them
selves as well as the country.

Worth Looking Into.

w. H. Frasier, assistant general man
ager of the New England National
Building. Loan and Investment Associa-
ton of Portland, is here for the purpose
of organizing local branch of the COM
pany. 1t is the usual custom of those
who contemplate making loans to wait
till they are pushed to meet their obli-
cations before making application. It
is good plan to make preparation in
advance of such wants, to avoid delay
and annoyance. People who do not
want to build now can avail themselves
of a good safe investment and be pre-
pared to borrow in the future, should
an opportunity present itself. Hard
times is no excuse for person not to
better their condition, when so little is
required on their part. Joel G. Koontz
is the local agent of the company, in
whose Office Mr.. Frasier will be found,
ready and willing to fully explain the
plan. Please get in and help to estab-
fish good strong board. 1t is safe and
profitable to old and young alike.
