\ $4,000 BUTTERFLY.

| John Haviand, whose home is in
Springfield o.. arrived from Ecuador
some days ago with a butterfly such
as was never seen before here-one
so beautiful and so rare that it is
worth $4,000. 1t has been sent to Lord

During his spare moments Mr.. Hav-

mounting the many beautiful butter
flies and dragon flies which fitted
about the orchid-hung trees of this
Ecuadorian home. One specimen
which he caught was of such beauty
that fearing his mounting might be
too crude for perfect preservation. he
brought 1t to a professional in this
city on his return to have the beauti-
ful fly more carefully preserved.
Immediately the old collector went

He has just paid $3.50, 900 for a pair of
fleas. You must send this butterfly
to England. If Lord Rothschlld has
none like it he will pay you good for
1t, and it shall be known as the Havl-

The amateur butterfly catcher was
more than surprised. He had not
dreamed that this little insect was
worth so much money. But he left it
with the old collector. to be shipped

MAYOR WILLIAMS WIT.

Mayor George H. Williams of Port
land, feeling aggrieved at the charges
of corruption lodged against his ad-
ministration by all the moral forces
in Portland, vented his spleen before
the State Bar Association recently, in
the following alleged "wit":
81 will not say that this city is the
best governed. but can truthfully say
that it is the most governed city in
the United States.
''If the Ministerial Association had
its way. Portland would be a New Je-
rusalem, such as St John saw in his
vision. In fancy. If the association
had its way, 1 could see DR.. Hill and
myself walking in the New Jerusa-
lem, he singing bass and myself sing
ing also.
THE Municipal League is composed
of most excellent gentlemen. Many of
them came from Scotland to teach
Americans how to behave themselves.
like Scotland for its romance, its
poetry-yes, even its whisky, but
Scotch Presbyterianism is about as di-
gestible to me as pickles and sauer
kraut
"Then there is the Taxpayers
League, which is known far and wide
for its Joe Teal.
There is also the sheriff of the
county, He reminds me of the bull
in the china sop who smashed every
thing he could reach, and what he did
not smash he left in a very unsavory
condition.
"a reform measure that is carried
on with revolvers and sledge ham,
mers may be best for the city-there
is even some doubt about this.
1--WE have four of the best circuit
judges in the state. They are prone
to nervousness when they are con-
fronted by honest gamblers. Judge
George showed this when he rendered
a decision the other day that took up
two columns in the newspapers.
''ln spite of the bowling of the
press and the preachers, Portland is
as law-abiding as any city in the
world"

IRELAND's FRESH FAMINE.

Ireland is again in the throes of a
famine and an appeal to the world at
large is timely.
Some philosopher has said that
Christopher Columbus ought to be
made the patron saint of Ireland,
vice st. Patrick deposed. Columbus,
in discovering America, created new
sphere for the Irish people, a sphere
wherein their talents have found a
field and where they have thrived
amazingly.
But seriously, the Emerald Isle was
never intended by nature to support
a large agrarian population. Its cli-
mate is execrable. AS a grazing coun-
try II has some advantages. but COM
pared with Illinois or Iowa. the whole
island is second rate from the stated
point of agriculture.
We hear much about the depopula-
ton of ireland. If famine recurring
regularly every third or fourth year
is good evidence. a few thousand
Irish may cross the Atlantic to good
advantage annually for all time to
come.-Livestock World.

The dextrous hand of Frank p.
Sargent, commissioner of immigra-
tion, win be seen in the presidents
recommendations to the coming ses-
sion of congress- it is alleged. For
le years Sargent was grand master
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and because of his personal
acquaintance with Roosevelt, and his
successful management of the affairs
of the order. he was selected as chief
of the Immigration bureau, and is one
of the presidents closest advisors.
Sargents hobby and ruling passion
is better laws to protect railway men.
To this end, one of the strongest rec
concentrations of the presidents mes

enactment of employers liability

IectlNe means OF reducing these dis
asters. Those familiar with Mr..
Sargents aims will instantly recognize

of the presidents recommendations
No theme ever commanded more urg-
emily the earnest consideration of
congress, and railway employees of
every state should urge their repre-
sentatives in congress to support the
president in this worthy effort. The
railway industry is growing so rapid
ly and is so vitality related to the pub
lie that more stringent laws regulat-

government is ready to take charge
of it as public utility. Il

Judge Bellinger should not be
easy on the land thieves now on trial
before him. This is one of the first
opportunities ever presented to
avenge the prostitution of the state by
the organized gangs of thieves hid
den behind political influences and
operating through the political ma
chimes. Land offices, land scrip and
public institutions, both federal ami
state, have been made the toys of
plunderers who have so far escaped,
unwhipped. The name of Oregon has
become a byword in the United States
because OF the unrebuked corruption
iii public land transactions. Because
OF the dominance of machine politics,
1t has been considered a safe field of
operation and until Roosevelt turned
down the Oregon delegation, refused
to appoint their land office candidates
and began an investigation of condi-
tions in the state, it was the most
fertile field for land thievery in the
Union. Let Judge Bellinger lay on
the penalty and the bigger the thief
the heavier the penalty should be.

The first real menace to the COM
mercial interests of Pendleton has ap-
peared in the extension of the sump-
ter Valley railway into the interior
of Grant county. When that road
reaches Prairie City, much of the
John Day trade heretofore coming to
this city will be diverted to the Sump-
ter Valley railway. 1t is for Pendle-
ton merchants and Umatilla county to
say just how severe the inroads of this
opposition will be on the interests
of this city and county. Better wag-
ON roads will help hold this trade.
Larger mercantile stocks, greater bar
gains and more vigorous advertising
will save some of this trade. In the
logic of the situation, 1t must be seen
that all of the present John Day
trade enjoyed by this city cannot be
held. Cities will spring up along the
Sumpter Valley road and commercial
interests will center at those points
But 1t will be many years before
merchants on that line, whose freight
must be transferred and shipped to
the interior at extra cost. can COM
pete with the splendid institutions of

The East Oregonian urges Umatilla
county to send a strong delegation of
active stockmen to the coming meet
ing of the National Livestock asso-
citation at Denver, on January 10. A
general reorganization of that body
is to take place at that time, and it
should be reorganized by actual stock
growers and not by stockyards men,
commission men and railroad inter-
ests. This organization is a power
for good in the United States. Its
dictum is needed by the state legis-
latures and by congress. 1t can be
made still more powerful in arbitrat-

Answer to democratic Contention.

$ Answer to democratic Contention.
The national banks of the United
States hold in cash today 1861, 900, 900,
against $780,, OO0, 900 in 1896, and show
a total of loans and discounts Of 3d.
7OO,OOO,OO0, against $1,SOO,0OO,OO0 in
1896. These figures show the fallacy
of the present Democratic contention
that large bank deposits and a cheap
ioaning rate for money indicate con-
tracting business and a poor demand
for money for investment purposes and
industrial uses.
The legitimate business demands for
money-implying business expansion
are more than double what they were
eight years ago. The banks of the
country would not be able to meet
them, and rates Of money would be
excessively dear, except for the fact
that Republican prosperity has brought
about enormous increase in deposits,
and the victory Of the gold standard in
1896 and again in 1900 has resulted in
large accumulations Of gold in the
United States, which made it safe for
the banks, with increased cash re-
serves, to increase their loans SO as
not to restrain the rapid business ex-
pansion which came with the election

DEMOCRATIC ANARCHIST
Incendiary Usterances of an Alabama
Congressman.

Incendiary Utterances of an Alabama
Congressman.
II Democracy has returned to "san-
ity," as Grover Cleveland asserts, it is
certain the party has not yet purged
itself Of something even worse than
insanity. Anarchists are "a greatercurse
to any community than lunatics, for
lunatics are often harmless to society;
but anarchists, by their words and
deeds, are always a menace. Take
the case of Congressman j. T. Heflin,
for instance. He is an Albanian
with mouth more dangerous than a
dozen Czolgoszes. The assassin Of
President Mckinley did not openly
preach anarchism before carrying out
his purpose and thereby incite others
to STAY public men. Helm is more
cowardly. In recent speech at Tuske-
gee, Ala, the home of Booker T. Wash
ington and the negro school conducted
by him, Helm said: s...
There they sat, Roosevelt and
Booker, and if Czolgosz or one Of his
kind had thrown bomb under the
table no great harm would have been
done the country"
OF the report that Booker Washing
ton was going to help to beat him for
election to congress, Hefiin said:
IF Booker takes hand in this thing
1t will be one time 7 will ask him to
step out. will ask him to hands off,
and you know we have way of inf,u-
encing negroes down here"
Helm, who succeeded Congressman
Thompson, had fight with his Re
publican opponent, Captain B. w.
Walker, on Sunday. Smarting under
this, he attacked Walker fercely in
his speech. He described him as "a
black and tan serpent kissing at the
feet of honest, upright Democrats"
He said it was the desire of the Re
publicans to have Walker sent to con-
gress so they could say: Here's a
friend of Booker Washington and it
shows how he is looked upon down
there and how the people uphold him."
IF Parker is elected president" he
said, "and Booker Washington goes to
Washington, you will find him eating
in. the kitchen instead. of the dining
ROOM" 3. s. b j q
Hefin said he refused to meet Walker
in Joint debate because that would
have recognized him as his equal He
added: s 4% s.s3 "a AZ
4 do not recognize any black and
tan as my equal. I will not lower
myself to the level of a black and tan
who ningles on equal terms with ne
groes."
It avails Hefiin nothing to say his
bomb talk was intended to be jocular.
The fact remains that it was incen-
diary language, such as is made Grim
inal by the anti-anarchist law recently
passed by congress. The Democratic
party has much to answer for, and
unless it muzzles such blatant niger"
haters as Hef1in it may have more
crimes laid at it's doors. Helm is one.
Of the leaders of the party in the.
south, and his utterances are an indi-
cation that Democracy is, at least, not
"safe," even if it is now sane as
Mr.. Cleveland would have the people
believe.
