sent home and few days after the funer-

upon the widow TO effect settlement.
She placed her damages at $4,000.

-Four or five hundred?" she echoed.
"Why, sir, courted that man for ten
years, ran after him for ten more, and

A FRuTTFuL SOURCE or DISTRESS. Com
centration in cities and the practical
abandonment Of the rural districts is one
OF the dangers menacing the prosperity OF
the United Seates. There are too many
boys looking to the different trades and
professions for a living, and too few
studying to make sccessful farmers. The
superior advantages OF a city in the
line of Education, amusement aud social
intercourse, combined with the possibility
of making money fast" are proving too
attractive for the farmers boys and they
leave the old homestead for the less GER
tain prosperity OF city life. Men are out
OF employment on Bellingham Bay who
could earn splendid living and soon own
comfortable homes Of theit own by secur-
ing land somewhere in the county and
beginning the work Of cultivation. With
all the "howlingp about the poor and
mortgage ridden farmer, be is. neverthe-
less, as class, the richest aud n,ost pros
porous man in the county today. He is
the one man who is sure Of his position
unless in his ambition TO own the earth
he has made grab for too large farm.

WHERE THE MONEY Co.'s. The circu
lsting medium of the United States is
about 81, 800, 100000. During the past 80
years China has absorbed the coin OF this
country to the enormous sum, in wages
and difference between imports and ex-
ports, Of 81 ,024 600, 900. How long will
it take at this rate to get oil we have? Is
it not apparent that this is one cause OF
the present contraction Of our currency?
The official records show the shipment Of
$l34 900 900 TO China since 1860, and il is
safe to assume that an equal or larger
sum was sent by way OF London ex-
change, that form OF credit being very
desirable in China. A much larger sum
went by the Chinese who returned home.
They exchange gold here for Mexican dol
lars, which they ship to China, but we
send gold to Mexico to purchase silver for
them, our gold going gradually but surely
to swell the treasury OF the shrewdest
nation on earth. Washington Standard.
IT'S IN THE ATMOSPHERE. Near Daven-

Sof them. Since that little episode we

A FORTUNE To THE EooT.--A bed OF
gold was discovered last week at the bot
tom OF the $50 foot shaft in the Virtue
mine near Baker City. The water was all
pumped out and nearly solid streak Of
gold eight inches wide was revealed Two
miners took out two sacks OF ore worth
$4,000. One specimen weighing eight
pounds contains $500. The face OF the
vein is just as rich as when struck and
there is no telling how much gold will be
taken out.

If President Cleveland imagined that
the departure of most of the congress-
men for their homes would relieve him
in any great measure from the pressure
of those who want Office he has been un-
deceived. The office-seekers, in the alb
sence of their senators and representa-
rtives, have taken their fate into their
own hands. 1t is, of course, somewhat
difficult for them to neutrality-suspicious.,
but they take advantage of the general
public receptions in their efforts to do so.
There is every indication that this sort
of thing will continue as long as the ex-
ecutive will stand it; and probably rec
.ognizing that fact, Mr.. Cleveland is said
to have stated with much emphasis
since the adjournment of the senate that
he will make as few appointment as pos
sible while the army of office-seekers
remains in Washington.

The Klamath Star is also convert to
hog-raising by the farmer. The evidence
is conclusive that hog-raising is about
the best paying business in which a
farmer can engage at present. 1t is well
that we have a department of agricul-
ture, and better, that its statistics can
be relied upon. The statistician of that
department reports a decrease of over
one million head in the stock of live
hogs in Great Britain, and the shortage
in Ireland is estimated at great deal
more than that. Everywhere we see
that pork and bacon are abnormally
high as compared with the prices of
other meats, and the opinion that they
will continue so for considerable time
is well grounded. Raise hogs, even if
only for your own family.

Our neighboring nation on the south
has suppressed the publication of 100
newspapers unfriendly to the Diaz ad-
ministration. An act of that kind in
the United States would not be toler-
ated, though there are hundreds of howl
ing sheets of the anarchistic and social
istic orders that deserve such fate. But
so long as intelligence of the masses
rules, as it does, there is little fear that
these papers will ever have more than
an insignificant following, which may be
troublesome at odd times in certain
localities and as quickly squelched by a
vigorous move on the part of the great
majority of law-abiding citizens. Mean
while Mexico will be subjected to fearful
revolutions. The government which re-
sorts to annihilation of OPT osition may
be overthrown in day and ten thous-
and citizens of Mexico shed their life
blood because they are not on the plane
of enlightenment enjoyed by the United
States, to which nation a prospect of
internal strife is almost as removed as
the millennium.

Here they found quantity of giant

out some powder on the ground and set
the big can near by. He touched the
small quantity off and before he could
think OF the danger the large can went
off with terrific explosion, burning

WASHINGTON. Aug. 23-Private Secretary
Thurber. when asked this morning regard
ing the report that the President was
suffering from Brights disease. 'unhesi-
tatingly declared that there was absolutely
no truth in tho report. and whom asked as to
his general health. said that there was nothing
organic the matter with the President. When
he left Washington 1t was under tho advice Of
those who take great personal interest in his
welfare. simply because he wanted the rect
peration which his arduous duties OF tho IA ct
ak months had made necessary. and to ut him
to again assume the exacting cares OF his
office. Mr.. Thurbcr added that tho rest the
President needs is simply what any man, how
ever vigorous. must require when overtaxed.
Mr.. Thurber received letter olny yesterday
from the President In which he said that he
was rapidly gaining strength and vigor.
Assistant Secretary Hamlin. who has Just re-
turned from Gray Cables bringing with him o
number OF official appointments for internal
revenue collectors in Kentucky and Virginia.
says that the President seemed to be In the
best OF health. and pronounces as absurd the
stories to the contrary.
Secretary Lamont, who also has been quito
RECENTLY in the Presidents society. said:
- These stories are absolutely baseless. The
President fs as sound as any one but. like
everybody else, he needs rest occasionally.
His physical ans have said that he has no or
Ganic trouble Of any kind"
