The girl who takes as much
pride in learning to dust a room
properly as she does in learning to
draw, who broils a steak with the
nicely she em broiders a rosebud,
who makes coffee as carefully as
she crochets, is the girl who will
make the economical, CHEEKY wife,
loving mother and delightful COM
psnion. 1t is not q crime to know
how to keep house. Every girl ex-
poets to have a home of her own
some day, yet the girl and her
mother when circumstances permit,
too often act as though there was
no such thing as a servantless
home and food grew on bushes
ready for the picking Ore

One Of the many things that are
difficult to understand is the power
welded over congress by the brew
ers of the country. Nearly every
senator or representative who will
talk about the matter at all agrees
that the easiest way to put $780,
900, 900 a year additional into the
treasury would be to add VI a bar
rel to the internal revenue tax on
beer; that it wouldn't cost the
government cent extra to collect
this money and that the treasury
will need it very badly in the near
future, but they all wind up by
saying that the brewers will defeat
the bill if an attempt is made to
pass it. 1t looks like it would be
a good idea to get a bill providing
for this tax forced to vote in or
der that the people might see just
how powerful the brewers are.

Senator Mitchell has introduced,
and will push, q bill providing for
the repayment to the settlers on
lands within the railroad limits
who paid $3.50 an acre for their
lands, one-half that sum. Owing
to the condition of the treasury it
is not probable the bill viii pass at
this session, and yet it is a perfect
ly just bill. 1t would take quite q
large sum TO make this repayment,
and the other demands on the
treasury, together with the regular
monthly deficit, will prevent it
being favorably received. When
things get in better shape the bill
will pass, and those who paid $3.50
for their lands will get half the
sum returned to them.

Such a storm of horror and in
dignation has gone up from all
civilized nations of the world over
the brutal murder Of Maceo un-
der flag Of truce that Weyler and
his cannibals, in order to ward of
prejudice, are now trying to make
the people believe that Maceo was
not killed, after all; that it was
some one else who resembled Maceo
who was slain. But there is not
the least doubt that the great Gu
ban general and leader was MUIR
dered as stated in the dispatches.
II was told by Weyler's own saw
ages that after Maceo was butcher
ed his body was hitched to a horse
and dragged through the streets of
Havana and over fields, while
thousands of the Spanish butchers
danced and howled around the
body, occasionally shooting into it.
It is not known for certain whether
they afterwards ate the body or
not, but the chances are that they
did, as they are all cannibals of the
lowest and most savage type.

The state tax levy will be al
least four mills and possibly Al
mills. The totals of the 1896
county assessments as made are
known and reported from all coun-
ties except Marion. Every county
with the exception of six-Grant,
Harvey, Lake, Lincoln, Malheur
and Washington-show great re-
ductions in the aggregate of their
total taxable property. The six
counties named show slight in-
creases. Nearly all of the counties
also show largely increased exemp-
tions. Multnomah is notable. Last
year her exemptions we're only
1887 ,l59; this year they are mil
lion and a quarter dollars. State
government as well as county gov
ernment is costing too much. The
boards and commissions created by
the legislature for the benefit Of
leading wire pullers and political
tricksters are big burdens upon
the taxpayers and largely respon-
sible for the high levies Of county
and state.--East Oregonian.

The opening 0f the Cascade for-

The opening OF the Cascade for
est reserve to pasturage is one Of
the most important questions tc
Eastern Oregon. Several PROPOSE
tions have been made concerning
it. one of which is the reduction Of
it's area by setting apart two OF
three, or perhaps more, small reser'
vations, around Mt. Hood, Crater
lake. ETC., and the throwing of the
balance open. Another is to have
entirely new regulations made fol
the government Of the reservation,
permitting the pasturing of fiocks
thereon under the direction Of q
superintendent. and such rules as
he might prescribe, one of which
would be the taking of q bond Sc
securing the government against
loss by fire, set or permitted by
herders or flock owners. If the
la tier plan could be adopted il
would probably be better than
having the area of the reserve re-
duced. 1t would be a good move
to have our coming legislature
memorabilia congress on the sub
ject. And in the meanwhile the
newspapers Of Eastern Oregon
should not be idle. The taking
away from the sheepmen of the
summer pasturage Of the Cascades
is virtually confiscation Of theil
flocks, and this means the destruc.
ton Of the sheep industry in East.

AN AMBER FISH.
a Fish Well Known In Southern Waters
But One Rarely Seen Here.

a Fish Well Known In Southern Watoes
But One Rarely Seen Here.
The amber fisheS-there are several
species of them-belong TO the family
that contains the crvalles, the POM
panoes, the banded pilot. the horsefish,
and the threadfish. In shape they are
nearest like the pilot fishes; they bear
q general resemblance in shape, how
ever, to the bluefish, though not nearly
related to that fish. They are rapid and
powerful swimmers and great travellers.
The annie fishes are found in nearly all
tropical and temperate waters; in the
Mediterranean, the waters of the West
Indies and the Gulf OF Mexico, and il
various parts of the Pacific ocean. Some
of them are excellent food fishes-an
are shapely and beautiful. The larger
OF them may attain a length of four feet
or more and a weight of so pounds.
Large amber fishes are common on tbs
coast of California, where they arc
emong the most celebrated of the game
fishes.
On this coast, says the New York Sun
the amber fish comes as far north az
Cape Cod, but rarely; one taken in a
pound net in Gravesend bag in July OF
the present year is perhaps the first cl
its particular species of which there is
record here. This fish was little more
than 80 inches in length, and it weighed
about i3 pounds.
