LONDON, ENG Sept. 2.-It is learn

Sir Phillip Currie, British Embassa-
dor to Turkey, who started on his
return to Copstantinople on Mon
day, left England with instructions
in dealing with tho Sultan to act
independently OF the other Embassa-

should require it. Sir Philip, ac-
cording to this source of informa.
ton, is also to have free command
Of British naval aid to enforce such
demands as he may make. The
Sultan will be advised Of the change
in England's policy in Turkey i'm
mediately after the arrival OF Sir

a Surprise.

Mr. Whittier and party left by the
Australia yesterday after pleasant
visit to Honolulu, where they resid-
ca at Sans Souci. The ladies OF the
party several times expressed their
contempt OF our beautiful goats and
their admiration OF the abundant
flowers of Hawaii-nei. When they,
just previously to the departure of
the steamer, went to their room to
fetch sufficient handkerchiefs to
wipe away the rapidly falling tears,
they found magnificent basket Of
flowers presented by their host. When
they tried to inhale the fragrance Of
our tropical products little white
goat put up his head from among
the howery bed with around its neck
a silver bell attached to white
ribbon, and said "bah". The steamer
left and the fate Of the goat is un-
known. 1t is safe to state however
that the despicable goat will be
called "dear little kid" before the
voyage is over. The donor however
can look for some interesting hair
pulling when the Whittier party re-
turns next season.

large car load) direct from the
factory at Detroit.
This is our third shipment,
and we find that we have only
4 stoves left from our previous
lot.
The excellence of these stoves
has already been proved by the
large sale, but we will name
three points:
First. Long life from the
heavy high grade of iron which
is the same in the $12 stove as
in the $50 range.
Second Economy in the use
of fuel.
Third. Quick and even
bakers.
We propose leasing these
stoves on the following terms:
When the stove is delivered
one-third of the price is paid in
cash, and the balance monthly
thereafter in five equal pay
ments.
If before the expiration of
the five months, the lessee wishes
to pay off the balance, he will
be entitled to a discount Of five
percent on the amount unpaid.
If a customer wants to buy
outright, he gets five percent
discount on the whole amount.
Jewel stoves and ranges can
be had only of us.

The Republicans of Texas had a
monkey and parrot time'' in their
convention held yesterday. The pro-
ceedings were disgraceful in the extreme
and the only excuse that can be raised
in the delegates behalf is that the Re-
publican party is young in Texas and
has yet to learn the ways of orderly be-
havior. 1t would seem that Mckinley
has delegations enough that he could
give to Reed and Allison the one from
Texas. According to present indica-
tions they need it badly.

ToMoRRoW'S CONVENTION.

The Republican delegates of Wasco
county will have an opportunity tomor-
row of winning credit for themselves
and success for the party by rising above
any factional feeling and naming as can
didates the men best fitted to discharge
the duties which the respective Offices
entail. The people of the county are in-
terested in having men named who will
administer the county affairs economic
ally and well. Every taxpayer is di-
rectly concerned in the management of
county affairs, and in these days of re-
dbced incomes and high taxes retrench-
ment in county expenses has become a
necessity. This is time when the
claims of the professional office seeker
should be disregarded. Taxes in Wasco
county are too high. The same COM
plant that is heard 80 vociferously in
other parts of the state is justified here
and systematic effort must be made to
redeem the county indebtedness, at the
same time not increasing the rate of
taxation.
Our county finances are in that state
WAllCn IS4uI0S Cu0 uOsG Skllllul LTSdG-
ment. This community cannot grow as
its resources entitle it TO until the rate
of taxation is lower and the public debt
decreased. Capitalists with. money to
invest seek those places where, other
things being equal, the rate of taxes is
low.
Portland is having bitter experience
with the tax evil and her prosperity is
for time at least, threatened from this
source.
Wasco county is deeper in debt now
than it should be, and it is time to
check any further tendency in that di-
rection. Never were good business men
more needed to manage our county
affairs than now, and it is the duty and
opportunity of the Republican conven-
tion to see that such men will be chosen
for county offices as are known for their
capabilities, and not for the stand they
have taken in local politics.

An example of the tardiness with
which republics express their gratitude
is eeen in the governments action at
this late day in awarding to Senator
Sewall of New Jersey, medal of honor
for bravery at the battle of Chancellors-
vile, May 5, 1868. But better than the
pieces of metal which governments
confer is the consciousness of duty done
which not only Sewall. but the thous-
ands of brave men who struggled there
can claim as their dearest possession.
