a 100000 YEAR.

This has been hoodoo year. From
midnight of December 31st, when it
kicked up its infantile heels and tried
to put it's little big-toe in its mouth, it
was captious, capricious, cantankerous
infant. 1t lay awake to cry of nights
and had more trouble cutting teeth and
getting weaned than any of its illustrious
predecessors. It has been subject TO
collie, and had to have its nasty little
pug nose held to make it take medicine
administered by this administration.
It has devastated us with fire, drowned
with flood, swept with cyclone, struck
with lightning, and id with demo-
cratic congress. And it isn't six months
old yet, either.
We believe it has done its worst. The
floods are about over. the season of
cyclone the same, good crops are grow
ing, and congress is approaching ad-
journing time. Carlisle will probably
cut loose from Cleveland, and Gresham
wants to be senator from Illinois. There
Is promise of good many things, but
ave cannot believe that 1894 is going to
reform, at least short of death bed re-
lDentance.

SIT CAN'T BE DID"

The Athena Press advises its readers
to 'thold their butter" This may be all
right in Athena. but some butter we
have seen in Oregon; nay! some we
have not seen, but only become cogni-
zant of its presence, not through the
eyes, but the nose, would bother its
own creator to hold! A healthy roll
of butter, after it has sprouted whiskers
-and become emulous of Sandow, can
down any dairyman or maid, without
splitting in its hands. Butter, like our
glorious union, is the casket of strengths.
Il can't be held, because it can't be
downed. It is enough to behold it. Verify
the glory of man is his strength, and
the glory of a woman is her hair; but
the glory of Oregon butter, in the full
pride of its mature years, is both. As a
genuine amateur butter, some of the
two-pound rolls can give billy-goat
odds, and knock him out.
athena people may hold their butter,
2 but the Average farmer, if he knows
when he's well off, will hire middle
man to hold his for him.

We cannot agree with them. There was
an old party died in Oregon June 4th,
but it was the other party, and his name
was democracy. The populist vote,
according to the returns. has nearly
doubled in two years, the democratic
vote in the same time been divided by
two. What the populists may do in the
next two years we do not pretend to say,
but surely party that adds so per cent.
to its vote in two years is neither dead
nor dying.

1t has been claimed for years that
salmon would not bite in Oregon. Yet
fo= years they have been taken with a
hook at Oregon City, in the Sandy at
Hood River and doubtless at other
places At the same time it is claimed
fish do not eat anything from
the time they enter the Columbia until
they,die We have never believed this,
! nor do we believe it now. If they were
mot hungry and disposed to eat they
would not take fly. Besides there is
no person on earth that can convince
any reasonable man that a salmon can
make "a trip a thousand or fifteen hun
dred miles up a swift stream, the jour
ney occupying three months, without
Ehaving food. When the fish can do
that, man can lift himself over the
same river by his boot straps.

Next week the senate will, in all
probability, pass the tariff bill as
amended by it. Dolph, Quay, and the
others who had serial speeches running
through this volume of congress, will
rest up their thinkers. Brice, German
and the democrats will get the sugar
seraped OFF, and then the fight on the
tariff bill will commence. The confer
ence committee from each house will
meet and disagree. the house will
stand pat on the Wilson bill, and refuse
to bulge an inch, and the whole ''biiin"
of democrats will be glad of it. Failing
to carry out the pledges of the party,
congressman will prefer going before the
country for reelection without tariff
bill than with one. The Mckinley bill
will remain the law until a republican
congress changes it.

The Oregonian this morning comes
out in new dress, and one we confess
we do not like. Whether it is our per-
verted taste or just because any change
IN the old standby is offensive to old
timers, we don't pretend to say. The
type for the kilograms at least is iset
by machinery, and the balance of the
paper has a new dress 90 make it cor
respond. 1t gives the paper rather q
pale look, the face of the type being
somewhat lighter than the old, but it is
a clear, clean print and more easily
read. 1t is no doubt an improvement,
but it pleases not our eyes.
