Photography Under the Sea.

The progress of photography under the
sea by means Of tho newly devised magne-
SUM light-a marvel of ingenuity-may
justly be described as something wonder
full, though tho timing Of the exposures is
said to still present one of the most serious
difficulties yet to be overcome. 1t is stated
with reference to this important point that
thus far In the process an exposure of ten
minutes at depth Of 3 to feet will give
good results. At depth, however, of 10
to 18 feet an exposure is said to be re-
quired Of not less than 30 minutes when
the sun is brightest, though even Mt this
depth 1t becomes necessary to apply plato
of blue glass In front of tho lens in order
to obtain pictures that are really clear,
while In deeper regions photography
would, IL Is declared, be impossible but
for this improved device. 1t not only saves
time and trouble, but good pictures, it is
said, have been taken during storms and
without appreciable light from above.

Small Beginnings

Make great endings sometimes. Ailments
that we are apt to consider trivial often grow,
through neglect, into atrocious maladies,
dangerous in themselves and productive of
others. It is disregard of the earlier indica-
tions Of i'll health which leads to the estab-
lishment Of all sorts of maladies on chronic
basis. Moreover, there are certain disorders
incident to the season, such as malaria and
rheumatism, against which it is always desir-
able to fortify the system after exposure to
the conditions which produce them. Colo, !,
damp and miasma are surely counteracted
by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, After you
have incurred risk from these influences, a
winsglassful or two Of Hos tetter's Stomach
Bitters directly afterward should be swal-
lowed. For malaria, dyspepsia, liver com
plant, kidney and bladder trouble, nervous
ness and debility it is the most deservedly
popular of remedies and preventives. A
wineglassful before meals promotes appetite.

THERE ought to be a few po-
tato starch factories established
in Oregon and Washington. An
Eastern exchange has been in
vestigating the subject and finds
that a factory costing from $40, :
900 to SIS, 900 will handle the
product of 1900 acres and will
turn out starch to the value of
$50, 900 annually. It is believed
to be the best plan for the far
mers to organize and build the
factory themselves, as capitalists
will not engage in the business
unless they can secure contracts
for number of years in advance
at prices which will insure them
a profit at the lowest possible
price of starch. There is no big
money to be made in raising po-
tatoes for making starch, but it
will pay better than wheat grow
ing in localities which are speci-
ally adapted to potato-raising.-

There were n early five thousand tick
cts in the box last Thursday evening
when the judges for Mi11er's bicycle
drawing arrived at 1890, to take charge.
After the tickets had been thoroughly
shaken up, Victor Spencer drew forth the
lucky number, 5o3. This ticket was is
sued to Rev. H. Could, but he had some
conscientious scruples against accepting
it, and left it with Mr.. Miller. Subse-
quently, however, upon hearing of his
good fortune, Mr.. Could was prevailed d
up1n to accept the bicy1e, and an offer of
$50 in cash proved no temptation for the
reyerend gentleman to part with it.

MUCH damage is done to coun-
try merchants, says the Portland
Telegram, by the business carried
on by the so-called catalogue
houses" of the East, and tits not
surprising that in some Of the
Western towns there is an organ
lied movement to drive out the
invaders. This is being accom-
plished bv exposing the way that
most of the catalogue houses car
ry on business. A majority of
them are cheap affairs, without
much capital or credit, and their
alleged spacious stores are sim
ply little buildings in which the
printe1 catalogues occupy most
of the space. These catalogues
embrace every article of domes-
tic use to be found in the United
States, and when the publishers
receive a mailed order for a GER
tain article they go out and pur-
chase that article from a regular
dealer. If it cannot be bought
at profit to themselves they get
their reward by taking on an
additional cost to their customer,
and if they are not permitted to
do that thew report that they have
not the article in stock. By
showing up this trade trickery
the country merchants hope to
convince their neighbors that
the best and cheapest policy is to
patronize home dealers when buy
ing anyIkind of goods. If the
local merchant has not got de-
sired article in stock he can send
for it and get it as cheaply as any
catalogue publisher can. If this
crusade does not succeed, the leg.
islatures of the Western states
should be urged to pass laws com
pelling a merchant to keep II
stock and pay taxes on the good:
he advertises for sale, or the man
lufacturers and wholesale dealers
should be requesed to unite in {
decision not to sell to the cata
logue houses any cheaper thar
they sell to the country mer
chants. Either plan would drive
the catalogue fakir out of busi
ness, protect the country dealer!
from unscrupulous competitor ane
save the ruralists from systemat
ic extortion.

CONGRESSMAN RLL1s IN TOWN.

Hon. w. r. Ellis, congressman from
the second district, with his wife, came
in from Yaquina Tuesday, remaining In
town until yesterday morning, when he
left for his home in Heppner, Morrow
county. The object of Mr.. Ellis visit
here was to perfect arrangements for
the attendance at the Agricultural Col
Iege Of his son and daughter. aged re-
spectively IS and Is years. While in
the city, he spent considerable time at
the institution, investigating the work of
the various departments and expressed
himself as being highly pleased at what
he saw.
For the past three weeks Mr.. Ellis and
family have been guests at the Monterey,
near Newport, it being his first visit to
this favorite resort. While there he ac-
quainted himself thoroughly with the
needs of that section, so far as national
legislation is concerned, ahd it is safe to
predict, from his conversation, that in
him will be found staunch friend and
earnest advocate for Yaquina's interests
Once on the ground and familiar with
the conditions, it is not a difficult task
to understand the importance Yaquina
| harbor bears to the entire state, and now
that he has familiarized himself with all
the details of the situation, Yaquina
may feel certain of his earnest support
in any measures looking toward further
improvements of that harbor.
| Congressman Ellis is enthusiastic over
the favorable legislation thus far secured
in the Nicaraguan canal matter. He
looks upon the construction of this
waterway as being one of the most i'm
portant measures this country has ever
undertaken, this being especially true
with regard to the Pacific coast When
the canal is completed, Liverpool, the
/ principal market for Oregon grain, will
be brought 5000 miles nearer, and the
distance that our products will have to
travel in reaching New York will be
shortened nearly ten thousand miles.
This it can be seen is of great importance
to our commercial interests. The saving
in time in making the circuitous and
dangerous trip around Cape Horn that
will result by the use of the canal will
cause great saving In the cost of trans
portation. 1t means to Oregon many
millions of dollars increase in the value
of her resources. In the matter of tim
Der alone completed canal would add
to our worth from one to two dollars on
every thousand feet of lumber that is
now standing In almost insxhaustible
quantities. The canal will be the means
of opening up a large trade in New
York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and othe,
eastern ports for our lumber and othel
commodities, which, under present con
ditions, it will be impossible for US to Sc
cure.
:. Regarding political matters, Mr.. ELI:
expressed himself quite freely. He be
lieves that the country must look to the
, republican, party for restoration of pros
: perity, and that the people are anxiously
: awaiting the opportunity to restore it to
power in all branches Of the govern
ment. He believes that the monetary
and tariff questions will be satisfactorily
settled only by republicans and predicts
for them ia 1896 the greatest political
victory the country has ever known.

THE Portland Sun has gone
the way of all flesh. Lack of
capital seems to have been the
disease, and it is prevailing one.
1t was a bright paper and was
started originally by Union prin-
tiers displaced by type-setting ma
chimes in the Oregonian Office.
Portland and the state of Oregon
ought to support two good daily
newspapers. We have one in
the Oregonian which, for actual
news and pungent editorials, sur
passes any paper on the coast.
But the people like to hear both
sides of the question, and, with
out opposition, a paper is apt to
WELD too much influence. It is
a matter of general regret that
the Sun has been forced to. sue

SEVERAL letters have appeared
in the Oregonian of late concern
ing Mr.. Hermann and the romi-
nation of his successor at the
next republican convention. The
same animus pervades all these
letters. They are of the same
tenor and might have been writ
ten by the same hand. There
seems to be sort of concerted
attack upon Mr.. Hermann, and
the fact that one of these letters
was from Marion county, another
from Yamhill and still another
from Southern Oregon, is suff-
cient to explain to the initiated
the purpose of the attacks, and
to give a palpable hint as to the
directors thereof. These gentle
men are a little late to begin
such attacks. MI. Hermann's S
republicanism is too well estab-
lished to be questioned, especially
upon the authority of nom de-
plume correspondents.

THE governor of Nebraska
seems to be at the bottom of the
Omaha police trouble. He is a
populist and his actions are on a
par with those of other populist
governors. He vetoed the Ona-
ha police bill after it passed the
Legislature and it was subse-
quently passed over his veto.
Since then he has refused to
recognize it as a law, making
himself the supreme court and
deciding that the law was un-
constitutional. He refused to act
with the other two members of
the board, who went ahead and
appointed a commission. The
old police commission, under the
governors encouragement, barri-
caded the police station and
refused to surrender to the new
commission and its police. The
council, which is in sympathy
with the new commission, refused
to obey an injunction issued by
Judge Hopewell, and hence con-
tempt proceedings are in pros
pect. The old board seems to
be at fault in not surrendering to
their legally appointed success
ors, and the new commission is
at fault in not obeying the orders
of the court. 1t is an unfortu-
nate squabble.
