The Roseburg Review sarcastical-
ly remarks that theme "is a general
feeling of disappointment because
Colonel Alley refuses to become a
candidate for congress from the
second congressional district. ;"
There are two other equally avail
able candidates in that district for
the republicans to select from in the
persons of Hofer and Barkley,
which should have a tendency to
relieve the general disappointment,
especially among the democrats.
Either of these great statesmen
would stand as much show of an
election as the gentleman from
Lane. Portland Dispatch.

Captain Hooker, commander ot
lAe cutter hcet in Dehring sea, has
reported to the treasury department
that his observations south oi
Unalaska convince him that the
seal herds moving north are lar less
numerous than formerly. This
scarcity, it is belived, is enta fly due
to the indiscriminate slaughtetdur-
ing the last two Or three years.
While patrolling the North Pacific
Captain Hooper boarded and search
ed number Of sealers, both Cana
dian and American, but there was
no evidence of unlawful killing,
hence they were allowed to proceed.
1t is very probable that the max
imum catch of the North American
Commercial Company will be ma
terially reduced, even from last
year. when it reached only about
1900 skins.

Moscow Farmers Bank Failure.


Moscow, Jan. 1.-The closing OF the
doors of the Farmers bank Yesterday
has aroused little excitement here, save
as regards its effect on the city's finan-
ces. L. f. Williams, the cashier Of the
bank, WIS the city treasurer His last
report presented 10 the council was for
October, submitted at the December
meeting. This showed about $4,000
on hand, though Williams claimed he
had redeemed warrants enough to bring
the amount down to some $4,000. With
in the past week or Ten days the county
assessor has paid in nearly $4,000 Of this
years taxes, making a to tai amount due
the city, 80 Treasurer Williams informed
the Spokesman Review correspondent,
after the amount paid for the warrants
Is deducted, of over $4,000. When the
bank officials learned Yesterday that an
attachment would be placed on the bank,
they went out and paid all the depos-
itors they could find with the money on
hand. This leaves the city in decid-
edly unfortunate post on. Williams
decided the bank block in trust to Mayor
McCartor, for the city's benefit. S. S,
Denning, TIE acting city attorney, re-
CARDS the deed as of no value, not hav-
ing the sanction of the board OF direc-
tors. A meeting of the council will be
called today to see what action can be
taken in the matter.
The statements with reference to the
action OF the Portland bank in bringing
matters to a crisis are very conflicting.
The bank representatives state that
they had been putting mp their best
collateral to secure the notes tone for
$4,000 and the other for $4,000, with in
terest) and when the smaller note wa
presented yesterday for immediate pay
ment, they acted in the only way left
open TO them.
W. II. Winfree, the representative
OF the Portland bank, says that that the
larger note would have been extended
for II months, If properly secured, pro-
vided the smaller note was paid. As no
effort was made to do 80, but rather In
the way OF avoiding the payment, he
felt obliged to act as he did.

If Representative Bull and his col
leagues from this county succeed IN
getting the necessary appropriations for
the agricultural college they will have
accomplished great and worthy work.
There are other great state interests,
but in a peculiar way the case of the
college is committed to the Whitman
county delegation, 1t should be their
first and present purpose to look after
its welfare.

Tax Relief.

Olympia has tax relief association
that holds meetings and discusses mat
ters looking toward radical change in
the present system OF taxation. The
a ISOLATION suggests that reasonable linn
it's be set upon public Indebtedness and
these limits be enforced; that "the noun
tain OF warrant indebtedness" be re-
duced as far as possible by the collec-
ton of back taxes and the balance be
funded in low rate bonds that penalties
and interest on delinquent taxes be re-
mitted, and the taxes of 1891 be scaled
10 per cent; that warrants be receivable
in payment of taxes due the municipality
that issued them; and the "debt making
bodies" be reduced from three to one
and that existing laws be simplifed, and
unnecessary expenses cut off.
The taxpayers generally over the state
are taking a marked interest in forth
coming financial legislation at Olympia,
There will be plenty of bills introduced
with the design of meeting this expec-
tation on the part of the people, There
will be good, bad and Indifferent bills;
none probably so good that they can not
be made better by wise consultation and
debate, and none so bad that some
thing valuable NAV not be taken from
Thorn. The level-headed legislator will
be IN demand, to sift, prune and perfect
the measures which will be sure TO pour
into the hands OF the legislative com
mittees. -Revie".

The blackmailers who take delight in

The blackmailers who take delight in
venting their spleen on the agricultural
college and Its management have so mis-
represented things to II. r. Clayton, the
editor of the Seattle Republican, that
an article appeared in he last issue of
The Republican which was a reprint so
far as sentiment goes, of the Heston
article that appeared in the Telegraph
some time ago. If Mr. Clayton. who
has the name of being very fair minded
honorable gentleman, will take the pains
to look over the college catalogue he
will see that the college is prepared to
teach any branch, whether it be the
"three RS" or the highest scientific
branches. and that the institution is Just
what It's name implies, an agricultural
college and school of science" The
newspapers of the state should inform
themselves on the subject before they
break out in TRADE against any public
institution.

In spite Of the scarcity of ready cash
it Is to be hoped hat enough of Eastern
Washington's farmers will find their way
TO the agricultural college this month
to insure the permanence of the "winter
school for farmers" which has been pro-
vived by the instructors of that institu-
ton. The day OF one-crop farms in
Washington ie ended. Diversified farm
ing is the rule, and no one who disre-
CARDS it need expect to keep up with
the profession. What the new crops
shall be-what to raise and how-is the
question now puzzling Washington
farmers. The instructors OF the agri-
;ultur' college can help to answer it,
and they should be given a chance

The London narkets

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-rhe Evening
Posts London financial cablsgram says:
The increase of nearly E2, 900. 900 in tn
public deposits at the Bank of England
for the week was due to the ingathering
of government revenues from duties,
stamps and otner sources. OF the f192,-
700 increase in coin and bullion ELY. 900
net was gold imported, f29.00O beng
United States coin. The stock markets
were eeperallv better today, closing near
the best. This was due to the following
causes: First. and principally to Roths-
childs taking over in whole or In pnrt,
the acUoant in Paris of On outside specu.
latoT, with heavy commitments in Ital-
inns and Turks. 1t was mainly the lqui-
dation of this account which caused the
weakness Yesterday. The second reason
for the rise is that :ne official figures now
come to hand of the deep level crushing
are much better than those reports circu-
lated, where now attributed to the bears.
There is undoubtedly now considerable
bear account, encouraged by the financial
situation The third reason for the re-
vival in Kaffirs is the offer made by Bar
nato to repurchase at cost all the assets
sold by MIN to the concern known as
Barnato's bunk.
Americans were better in sympathy
with the other markets, but there was
little business in them.

Oil Production and the Prices
for the Fluid
THE OUTPUT INCREASING
Demand Is Sufficient to Absorb the Oil
Produced
Better Prices nay Be Expected In Due
Course Of Time-The Industry
on a Firm Basis

The oil men are not particularly jnbi.
liant, because oil prices persistently
hang at about SO cents barrei. which
price does not afford a large margin over
the cost of production. But the situation.
viewed from the standpoint of business
conservatism, is anything else than dis
couraging. A year ago at this time the
total output of the Los Angeles oil field
did not exceed 500 barrels per day, the
price being not far from 81 per barrel
VIXEN sales could be made. Today the
pf3i uction IL fully 5000 barrels day, and
notwithstanding ths fact That almost ev-
cry day records the fact that pumping
has been begun on new we'll, the price
.ioes not decline further, and the output
is kept measurably cleaned up. year
ago all the oil produced was disposed OF
for local consumption. and when an oil
man made a sale he shut down his pump
until il was about time tor his customer
to send in another order. Now the de-
mand has spread and orders come, and
more are confidently expected, from ali
the cities on the coast where power IS
used. Noting can affect this demand
more favorably than belief thatll.os An
geles has oil and plenty OF it; nothing
will produce this feeling of certainty ex
cept large supplies and cheap prices. II
the price had been held &C 81 per barrel
most of the establishments between Los
Angeles and Portland now using fuel oil
would still be shoveilng coal into their
arches. 1t may not seem enormously
profitable to sell oil at about the cost of
production but in no other way could so
substantial q foundation for the future
prosperity of the industrybe laid. Cheap
tran, portation will soon follow largo de.
mand and prices that now seem small
will be found to pay very handsome re-
turns when the books are looted up at the
end of the wear.

A Dull Opening Lapses Into StagnatiOn
at the Close
Gold Export Probabilities Make Prices Sag
and the Closing Shows General Frac-
tional Net Declines

NEW YORK. Nov. 21.-Today's stock
market was purely professional affair.
Tue dealings showed falling off in point
of activity of approximately half of the
preceding days total, and at intervals
the market lapsed into stagnation. This
was in large measure attributable to
the elimination of large Fart of the
short interest on Wednesday, and to the
willingness of the professional dealers to
commit themselves to decided stand
pending uncertainty as to the actual
amount of gold to 60 out on Saturday.
Up to the close of business only 81, 0O0,-
900 had been engaged, but all present in
dications point to at least 1000, 900 ad-
ditional gold to be forwarded to Europe
ut the close of the week.
The market opened dull, with this in
itial prices irregular, but IN the main
higher, in sympathy with more en-
couraeing foreign news and recovery IN
London prices for Americans, after an
early decline. The bears quickly moved
against Chicago Gas. on rumors of ex-
pressed disapproval of the consolidation
plan. Tie subsequent Official denial of
the rumor had no rallying influence and
the stock closed practically at the low
point. In the general market early deal
ings were characterized by q uniform
stiffening tendency and prices we're car
ried above last nights closing sales. The
support uf the covering -ovement failing
toward midday, except In the case OF
| Tobacco, which was pressed down IA
per cent. Lake Shore advanced IL.
During the day the general speculation
lacked snap. The gold export rro ba bill
ties hung over the market and induced
a sagging tendency to prices, which in
creased in the late dealings with the
Changers ana South western shares most
conspicuous for the lack of support. The
closing was heavy in tone, with the result
of the days operations showing general
fractional net declines.
The dealings in bonds again lacked a
decided tone and the net changes were
about evenly divided.
