PORTLAND Or, June 1.-The indications
are that the food in the Columbia il not
over and that the worst is yet to come.
The river is more than foot higher than
ever before known and the damage will be
immense. The fertile bottom lands along
the river from the Rocky mountains to the
sea, distance of 600 miles, are all inun-
dated. The food has come gradually, which
has given residents chance to move their
household goods to places of safety. Along
the river for distance Of 200 miles, fish
wheels and canning establishments are
under water, and it is believed that the loss
to canning establishments alone, will reach
SlO0, 900. In this city, the water has risen
into Easements as far back as Ninth street
and more than half the elevators in the city
are stopped for want Of power
VANCOUVER, B. c., June The food is
still raising and the Fraser river is three
inches above the highest historical mark.
Fraser valley is devastated for over hun.
dred miles. Tho"rh no lives have been
lost it is estimated that over q 200 families
are homeless and the property loss is So,
900, 900. All farming operations will be
stopped for the season aud the result will
be fearful trade depression.

A POLITICAL SERMON.

Cleveland has furnished the text for many
scriptural alusions during the past year, but
the following from the Ssdalia, Mo, News
is one Of the best we have seen.
And, seeing how the multtudes had voted
for him, he cast aside his fishing pole and
went up into the White House. Aud when
he was set, and had tapped fresh bottle of
beer, he opened his mouth and taught his
decipes, saying:
Blessed are the poor; for they shall be
poorer.
Blessed are the rich; for they shall be
made richer and shall taste of the world.
Blessed are they who expect nothing for
they shall not he disappointed.
Blessed is the campaign liar; for he is our
main dependence,
Blessed are the weak; for they shall be
kicked off the face of the earth.
Blessed are they who hunger; for they
shall have plenty of company.
Blessed are ye when men shall revile you
aud psrsecute you for my sake; for you
shall eat official pie at my hands.
Blessed Is the man who shall bring me
another bottle of beer; for this one is all
gone.
Blessed is the man who contributes to
the campaign fund; for he shall receive a
hundred fold more than he gave.
Blessed are the politicians; for We are all
in the same boat,
Blessed is the thief; for. he shall have
abundant opportunities to steal
Blessed is the lobbyist; for he pays we'll
and shall have the fat Of the land.
Blessed are the bankers; for theirs is the
kingdom of earth.
Ye arc the salt Of the earth, therefore
salt down everything in sight.
Ys are the light Of the world; for you
carry torchlights in every campaign.
Let your torchlights so shine before men
that they can see the rooster on your hat
and glorfy me, who art your political
father.
Take heed that you provide soup hou.s'
for the poor, for a hungry man 10 lisble to
blow you up with dynamite.
After this manner you shall pray: "Oul
political father who art in Washington,
Cleveland be thy name. Thy congress-
comes, thy will be done in the regular ssss
ions As in the extra ones. Give us this day
our usual cussing, Forgive Us our politica
: sins, even as we forgive the Republican,
who sin against US. Lead us not into temp
tation of riches, but deliver US into poverty
for thine is the pie, the officers and thu
} power to vote, forever. Anon"

One question often asked. and which
few living persons are able To- answer. is
"What are the sensations OF man who
is being strangled with roper Some
OF the few who have lived To give an ac.
count Of what occurred to them AT that
critical moment say that after one in
slant of pain the chief sensation is that
of mass of brilliant colors before the
eyes. Professor Boughton. who was one
day testing for himself what snch an
experience would be like. lost his foot
ing and was accidentally discovered and
rescued just rs the last faint spark of
life was about to leave the body. He
declared afterward that he felt no pain
and that the only sensation was that Of
a tire before his eyes. which finally
changed from a bright blue to black
color. He said that he had no fear OF
the consequences aud that the colors
were even a source of extreme pleasure
