The death OF Rev. j. s. White is an
event OF more than local interest In
Oregon. He has been stationed at
Salem for ten years past, and besides
being a devoted priest.of the Catholic
church was an educated gentleman
and possessed many fine social quail
ties that made him popular In the
church and among all classes.
He was man OF more than ordl-
uary attachments of literary char
acter, besides speaking the French
language as plainly as the English.
Rey. White was a clergyman who
confined himself closely TO his re-
liglous duties, and was ever most

Politics Ia Idaho Is significant OF a

support Of an imperial policy of Amer.
lean colonial expansion extending
over to the other side OF the world.
We have here a clew to one particular
social group which may be depended
upon to urge the country on such a
course. Far-away colonies, great

up vast and ATTRACTIVE field for the
attainment of easy and profitable
honors on the part of the adventurous

ONE ON THE JUDGE.

A celebrated Judge was once trying
a case where the accused could only
understand Irish, an interpreter was
accordingly sworn. The prisoner said
something to the interpreter, and the
latter replied.
What does he say" demanded the
Judge.
Nothing, my Lord"
How dare you say that when we all
heard him? Come, sir, what was it?''
my Lord" said the interpreter, be-
ginning to tremble, sit had nothing to
do with the case"
IF you don't answer I'll commit you
sir Now, what did he say?"
"Well, my Lord, you'll excuse me
but he said, Who's that ould woman
with the red bed curtain round her sit
ting up there?'"
At which everybody present roared.
and what did you say?" said the
Judge, looking little uncomfortable
