The K. of P. Last Night.

The visit of Grand Chancellor Wad-
die to Friendship lodge, K. of P, last
night was thoroughly appreciated, and
the hall was packed to its utmost capa-
city. After the lodge work some very
neat speeches were made, that of V. G..
Brock being given the position of honor.
A half hour soon slipped by and then an
adjournment was taken TO the European
House, where covers were laid for
eighty-five. 1t was visit that will
be long remembered by all present.
Grand Chancellor Waddle left on the
delayed passenger this morning for the
Cascade Locks, and will make an Off
cial visit to Waucoma lodge, at Hood
River tonight.

Al Pease 8 Mays,.
essay.

The grand opening at Pease & Mays
last night was brilliant success. The
ladies began to assemble before the
doors were opened, and at z o'clock
quite crowd was present. When the
doors were thrown open the immense
store looked like a fairy palace. The
decorations were superb, the blending of
colors and graceful draping of laces and
other goods showing exquisite taste.
The spacious floors were crowded by a
delighted throng until 10 o'clock. The
music furnished by the Orchestral
Union was new and pleasing feature
for such an affair, and was thoroughly
enjoyed.

President Eliot, of Harvard, has writ
ten for the October number of The
Forum an essay in which he points out
the reasons why the American republic
will survive, IN which he makes an in
ventory of the great forces in our politi-
cal and social life, and shows that very
many of the institutions upon which we
pin our faith have proved insufficient in
the past, but that there are others, to
some of which little attention is paid,
which he argues have brought new forces
into human society, and which are likely
to give our institutions permanence. 1t
is in every way most remarkable
essay.

called it, but we fancy that walk was
performed with the same cheerfulness
that the fox exhibited in abandoning
certain historic grapes.
The supper given by the K. of P. last
night was gotten up by Mrs. Frazier and
was one of which she may well feel
proud. The tables were handsomely
decorated with flowers, and there was
everything good to eat imaginable.
Eighty-dve knights sampled the good
things and each and all of them have
something to say in praise of that
supper.
County Clerk Kelsay has large sized
contract on his hands in the sorting and
labelling of the old documents filed in
his Office. He is getting them in ex-
cellent shape putting them in packages
with the year and kind of instrument
indorsed thereon, and then filing them
away in boxes. When he gets through
it will be possible to find in short time
any paper ever filed in the Office. It
will take a months steady work to COM
plete the job.
The example of Stengele in killing Mrs.
Calvin at Portland week ago, seems to
have stirred up others to try the same
thing. A case of this kind is reported
from Heppner this morning, man kill
ing his wife and then himself. How the
report reached here we are unable to
say, or to learn the names of the parties
but it is said to be true. Parties who
came up on the train last night state
that some other crank killed woman
in front of the Columbia hotel in Port
land yesterday evening.
In sorting over the papers in the
clerks Office some ancient documents
are brought to light. This morning we
noticed an old chattel mortgage given in
1855 to w. S. Ladd. The papers were
fastened together with piece of braid,
and the ends secured by sealing wax.
The seal of the county clerk is gaudy
affair of wax and green paper with a
bow of green ribbon to match. Mr.. ]. A.
Simms was at that time clerk, his official
signature reading, County clerk and
by law recorder of Wasco county, Oregon
Territory.

the men who did the forcing are to re-
main in tho Office.
The rumpus in the architects office
has in measure detracted public atten-
tion from the steady decapitation OF re-
publican officials in the treasury depart
ment, under the reorganization provided
for by the last session of congress. The
law, it will be remembered, abolishes
several entire bureaux, and it was eat
first supposed that all of the employees of
those bureaux would simply drop out of
office on the first day of October, when
the reorganization is to go into effect,
but Secretary Carlisle had scheme
worth two of that, from partisan dem
ocratic standpoint, and he seldom occu-
pies any otl>er. Had all employees of the
abolished bureaux been dropped it would
have caught as many democrats as re-
publicans; hence Nr. Carlisle's scheme
to select the clerks to be dismissed from
all branches of the treasury department.
And to add insult to injury it was given
out that only those clerks whose records
were poor would be dismissed. Up to
this time nearly 100 have been dismissed
and they are all republicans and some of
them have been for years considered
among the most efficient employees of the
department. These dismissals have also
given Logan Carlisle an opportunity to
vent his spite against the high grade
women employees. He declared when he
first went into Office that no woman
should hold position paying more than
$1,000, and if he is allowed to have his
way there will soon be none in his de-
partment. Gas.

Dangers Menacing the Republic.

If today there is danger ahead, it is
not the first time that the American
republic has faced it. The conditions
of our national life invite danger.
Security from invasion, natural re-
sources, triumphs of invention and
commerce, have led undoubtedly to an
over confidence in ourselves. Ameri-
cans are the most free handed, self
confident, generous, and confiding of
peoples. They have gone SO far in
their spirit trust as to even accept with
out much thought the tuition of schol-
istic economists. But the safety is
that they are realizing it. Certain it
is, that they will not il their concern
turn to the tories for help. Great ag-
gregations of capital have been
permitted to develop until they menace
the social order. This danger was
foreseen even at the very beginning

'There is no excuse for the newspa-

He has lots of spare time; nothing to do
but hunt up news. and clean the rollers,
and set type and sweep the floor. and
pen short items, and fold papers, and
write wrappers and make paste, and
when that is done he can put in his idle
moments mailing papers, and talk to
visitors, and distribute type, and carry
water, and bring coal, and read the
proofs. and correct mistakes, hunt the
shears and write editorials, and dodge
the bills, and take the cussing from the

we believe John is about right.
It IS very fortunate thing for the

under most any other condition it would
have been worse.

would declare in favor of the measure
