country are the finest that can be raised
in any country.
The roads from the Grand Ronde river

been dull and dreary to a marked de-

although admission tickets were freely
given away to whoever cared for
them The general attendance, how

for, the aggregate being fifty millions, as

Cincinnati Enquirer:
THE future of the Democratic party"
says the st. Louis Globe Democrat
will depend on the completeness with
which the real Democrats use the po-
litical machete against the bandits and
maniacs who have led their party TO
ruin" Nobody is likely to accept, or
even treat with respect, the advice OF
so extreme a Republican journal as the
Globe-Democrat in matters affecting
the party of Thomas Jefferson. The
so-called bandits and maniaes of the
Democratic party are those who have
been the most conspicuous in rebellion
for a lew years-and the very men the
Republican managers have been glad
to take their embraces.

laid down for the distribution of gold
medals to the successful competitors at

this official recognition of merit are
expected to pay the sum OF one hum
dred and fifty dollars each before the
delivery Of the medal, the intrinsic
value OF which is not given, and then
it is added that for those who pre-
fer to pay less an imitation medal,

which comes at the comparatively
modest price of twenty dollars,

base limitations will, under the pecu-

SOLID SENSE.

The Louisville Courier-Journal be-
leves with the Register that the pro-
posed reorganization of the Democratic
party is unnecessary, uncalled for and
mainly eminates from men who have
helped to defeat the party in two cleo
tions. 1t simply paraphrases the Reg
ister's remarks of few days ago when
it says:
There is a good deal of nonsense going
the rounds touching the reorganization of
the Democratic party. One would fancy
that a party which has just polled seven
millions of votes and which. aside from
its National Committee. has its State and
County Committees in every Common
wealth and bailiwick throughout the land,

is already fairly well organized. There
are methods made and provided by which
this parry machinery may be revised and
it is to be taken for granted that these
methods will be adhered to.
The Courier-Journal proceeds in an
eminently sensible strain:
THE National Democratic Committee
will probably ind no occasion TO meet
again until we approach the next quad
rennal PRESIDENTIAL year. III the various
States, as occasion requires, the several

THE yAGARIES OF FORTUNE.

That Fortune is a strange jade has
been exemplified times without number,
but never so conspicuously as in the
cases of some aspirants for the Presi-
dency of the United States. In three
notable instances men of exceptional
popularity have failed to reach the goal
of their ambition through causes and
effects which afford an interesting
study. The individuals referred to are
Henry Clay, James G. Blaine and Viii
liam Jennings Bryan. All were ora
tors, each was beloved by the people,
and were popular with the masses be-
yond precedent or comparison. Each
of them had an ambition to sit in the
Executive chair, and for each of them,
the fulfillment of the desire appeared
certain, and yet all were doomed to dis
appointment.
Clay was one of the. triumvirate Of
great American orators in the early de-
cades of the republic, his only rivals
being Webster and Calhoun. No man
stood closer to the people or was more
beloved by them, and yet three times
his aspirations for the Chief Magistracy
were doomed to failure, and he died
July 20, 1852, a disappointed states
man.
James G. Blaines political career had
much in common with that of Clay. He
was defeated in the national conven-
ton of 1876 by Hayes, and in that Of
1880 by Garfield, both of whom were
elected, while the nomination he re-
ceived in 1884 led only to his defeat by
| Grover Cleveland, Notwithstanding the
fact that many Democrats cast their
ballots for the man from Maine Like
Clay he was an orator, and like him his
popularity was almost without bounds.
Men of all parties were his personal
friends, while the people turned out
en- masse upon all occasions when he
spoke. He was a man of strong per-
sonality, of most remarkable magnet
ism, conservative in his ideas and poll
cies, and yet he, like Clay, died both
disappointed and regretted.
Mr.. Bryan affords the third instance
of unkind political fortune. His pow
ers of oratory, his personal popularity,
his almost limitless energy and his
high ambition are, of course, familiar.
Yet twice while yet a young man, adj
versity has paid him undeserved at
tention, and he thus becomes one of a
notable trio of the brainest and most
luckless men America has produced.
The vagaries OF fortune are indeed
strange.
