The New President Criticised.
LoNpoN.-Henri Rochetort in an in.
teryiev said he considered the choice of
Casimir- Perier for President to be the
worst that could possibly be made. TIE
new President would try to revive the
personal government OF the late Marshal
MacMahon, and like the latter would
have to surrender or resign. Rocheiort
said; " His Presidency means civil war,
lie wouh seek the alliance OF Germany
in order 10 sell the farmers his coal. as
he is the chief stakeholder in the Anzein
mine, the richest in France. He has al.
ready announced his intention OF dis.

THE PORTLAND MARKETS.


Foreign markets, which for the past
two or three weeks showed some strength
ening signs, have again fallen back TO
their former level, and quotations are
lowering about the low-water mark.
The local situation is not affected by the
slight fluctuations on the other side, as
there is practically no market here at
present. Walla Walla wheat for export
is still worth about 75c per GENITAL, with
none being exported. Valley wheat is
quoted nominally at IKE. So far as
can be learned but little forward busi-
ness is being transacted in grain or
freights. The first ship OF the new sea-
son il at hand, but she is disengaged.
Three charters only, it is said, have
been written in the past fortnight. Crop
conditions throughout the State are on
the whole considered very good. The
grain aphis which has made its appear
ance in the valley threatens damage,
but as yet has done none. The pest is
confined to a comparatively small
section in the central willamette Valley,
and has not been reported in any part OF
the Inland Empire.

obtained by the energetic action of
France or through family ties existing
between the German Emperor and Queen
Victoria. 1t is certain, however, that
the British foreign office announced that
England had abandoned the strip of ter.
ritory which the Congo Free State had
ceded TO her by the Anglo Belgian treaty
in violation of all existing treaties relat-
ing to Africa. The blow is severe on
Lord Rosebery and the Liberal party.

 Being called ill haste to patient un der the care of q very young practition- CT, Sir William found that brandy and water was being given at intervals, with certain other treatment. Tho great phy- sician carefully examined the patient and said, "Give him another spoonful of brandy"
 He then retired to private room with the young doctor in charge.
 Ut is q case of so and so, " he said as soon as tho door was closed. You shouldn't have given brandy on any ac- count.'
 But" said the junior practitioner in amazement, II thought, Sir Will liam, that you just told the nurse to give him another spoonful. "

It gave me the most supreme satisfaction to inform the gentleman that we worked day, night-all tho time-Sundays, Christmas, Fourth of July and St Pat rick's day. He even seemed surprised to know that we slept in the house.
 I've had dozen others ask me the same question, and the other night q brilliant citizen sailed into the house anu CaEtIcu up slsAits hhc h AO1u ol bricks falling on a tin roof. One of the boys told him to keep quiet or he'd wake the men. Why, does anybody sleep here?' he asked in tho most cheerfully idiotic way.
