The Other Kind.

Not long ago we'll dressed woman entered the savings bank in western town and told the clerk that she wished to deposit some money to tire credit of George Sampson.
 Recognizing her as the wife of man of that name, who already had an ao- count open, the clerk rightly guessed that the money in question was to start an account for one of her children.
 '.Is he minor?" he inquired.
 Well, I guess notp" responded the depositor indignantly. That's some thing we've never had ill our family yet And if Georgie shows any leanin toward it when he gets old enough-he aint but 10 now-I reckon his pa can tell him yarns about mines explodin and shafts fallin on top of folks that'll settle him quicker'n wink l''-Youth's Companion.

Orange Frees.

An orange grove in full bearing is one of the most delightful sights the eye can witness The trees are beau tiful shape if loft as nature made them The limbs come nearly to the ground so close that an orange picker goes un- der the tree flat on his back and often cuts 100 oranges from the tree before he comes out. Oranges are never picked, but are cut off with shears having . spring between the handles. An orange that has no stem on it is considered a ''cull" and is not packed by first class packer Pomona (Cal. Progress.

Special meeting of the council.


The city council met in special session
last evening at the Office of the recorder.
Mayor Menefee and Councilmen Nolan,
Eshelman, Johns, Grove, Wood, Salt
marshe and Ross were present and took
part in the deliberations.
The object of the meeting was to con-
slider the improvement of sidewalks
throughout the city and find means of
compelling property owners to put in
repair walks that are out of order. The
marshal read a list of sidewalks and
crosswalks which need repairing, after
which the best way of getting them fixed
was discussed by the members. On
motion of Mr.. Nolan, seconded by Mr..
Eshelman, the side and crosswalks upon
certain streets in town were declared
dangerous, and it was ordered that new
walks be constructed according to the
city ordinances. The recorder was in
structed to publish the notice of i'm
provement as required by the charter.
The cost of improvement will be as
sessed directly against the property
benefited. AS the sidewalk question
was the only one before the council,
when it was settled, the meeting ad-
, journed.

SATURDAY. : AUGUST 10, ISg
CONGRESSIONAL SEEDS.

The New York Evening Post COM
mends the action of Secretary Morton
in stopping the free distribution OF seeds
by congressman; and in this we heart
lily concur. If there ever was greater
farce than the indiscriminate mailing of
packages of seeds by the nations law
givers, it is the like mailing of public
documents - agricultural and patent
Office reports-to merchants and profess
sional men. 1t is safe to say that not
one-half the seeds sent out by congress-
men-and the mails are burdened with
them every year-every reach the soil.
Nearly all the public reports are con-
signed to the fire or the old paper buyer.
The whole system was inaugurated
for the purpose of enabling congressman
to hatter voters. The expense to the
government must be considerable, and
If congressman only knew it, the result,
in the way of vote-getting, is extremely
small. If some plan could be devised
which would require congressman to
pay the cost of printing the so-called
speeches, with which they flood the
country every year, another item of ex-
pense would be cut off, and the country
would be as well off. 1t is certain the
postmasters would be relieved of great
annovance

Some gentlemen from Goldendale, who
are in the city, speak in enthusiastic
terms of the new railroad now building
to Lyle-the work being pushed from
Lyle up the canyon. 1t is claimed that
the road has sufficient backing to build
it without any trouble, and if such he
the case, its completion will he an early
result. Whether or not the road will
pay after it is built, is matter of ques-
ton. During the wheat season the
trains will be heavily loaded, but there
will be many months in the year when
business will be very light. 1t takes
more than one community-even if it be
as large and fertile as the Klickitat val
:ey-to support a railroad, and we doubt
if the investors ever realize on their
capital. Good roads would be better
investment than a railroad, when it is
not sure there will be traffic enough to
make it pay.

The city council has done commend
able act in ordering certain sidewalks
throughout the city repaired. A city is
judged by its outward looks, as people
are by their clothes, and too much pains
cannot be taken in always appearing in
best attire. Some of our sidewalks are
in a deplorable condition, and strangers
coming to town receive bad impress
sion of the place. Aside from the dan
gerous features connected with bad
streets and walks, the demands of grow
ing civilization require they be put in
good repair.

Although there still remain several

there are some six or eight prisoners

Wheat is selling in this market at 40
cents, and in Portland at As. There
was time, not long ago, when the diff
ference was very much greater. With
THE completion of the canal at the Cas-
cades the difference will be decreased
about one-half; then The Dalles will be-
by long odds, the best wheat market in
= Oregon outside of Portland. The plac-
ing of a line of boats on the upper river
and the building of portage about the
dalles, will aid the country east of hert
as much as the state portage and boat
Line have heretofore aided us. We hope
1this will soon be the situation.

Gold Has Doubled the Obligation OF
Contracts and Destroyed the
Price of Property.

The gold men are good phrase
makers. The terms "parity" and
"inconvertibility" constitute the
very strongest card. They say they
want more money, but it must be
inconvertiblG with gold and on a
parity with gold, which means a
o gold basis. Gold is worth twice
as much ms 1t Was twenty years ago,
and all other money on a parity
with gold is also worth twice as
much as it was twenty years ago.
The reason is silver has been de-
monctized and one-half of the
worlds money destroyed. Money
is not different from anything else.
If it is scarce it will be dear; if halt
of the supply is destroyed each dol
lar of the other half is worth twice
as much. The use of gold alone
has aet only doubled the obligation
of contracts bat destroyed the price
of property.-HoN. WM, VI, SEW

Judge Trumbull on the Power to
Regulate Corporations.

1t is certainly competent for a
legislature to provide the manner
in which the business of a corpora
ton shall be conducted. 1t may
provide that the directors shall
consist of few or many persons, that
a portion of them shall be taken
from the employees of the corpora
ton selected by them, another part
by the stockholders who furnish
the capital for carrying on the bus
mess. 1t may provide that the en-
ployes shall be first paid from the
revenues of the company certain
fixed sum, graduated according to
the character of the work performed
by each; that fair rate of interest
shall then be paid upon the capital
invested, and the balance be dis
tributed upon some equitable prin-
ciple between the employees and the
stockholders. In case of loss the
stock holders would have to suffer,
since the employee having a right to
live must in all cases receive his
daily wages when dependent upon
them for sustenance. If this prin-
ciple in relation to the law forming
corporations, which is undoubtedly
sound, was made a constitutional
provision of the fundamental law
of every State there would be no
strikes and there would not be so
many corporations by One-half or
two thirds. That the State should
provide supervision and control Of
these artificial persons it creates is
clearly part of its duty, and the
labor unions should make this one
of their cardinal demands and go to
the ballot box with it in an
unbroken phalanx.
