A HOT SHOT AT DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS It is probable that Oregon and the northwest generally will like this paraiiiionious, cheese paring, humbug-economy congress a good deal less than they liked the billion dollar congress that has been the subject of so much democratic ob jurgation. Uy the way, there would have been no billion-dollar congress had it not been for the ten-billion-dollar democratic rebel lion. The annual charges on ac count of that rebellion still exceeds two hundred million a year. Port land Oregoniau. DEMOCRATIC HARMONY' Senator Hill, at the pearly portals: "Ah, there, Petie, old boy, how d'y?" St Peter (shocked): "I beg your pardon." Hill: "Eicuse me, old fel, I was thinking about your being one of the Albany boys. Can I come in?" St. Peter (unlocking the gate): "Oh I suppose so. Cleveland went in a few moments ago." HiU (startled): "Who? What? Cirover Cleveland?" St. Peter! "Yep." Hill: "1 guess I vo struck the wrong entrance, Ta, t a, old chappie." St. Peter: "Uy. by, Davy. Turn to the left at the foot of the cliff." Tiik report comes from Detroit that at the factory, where they are making the dynamite cartridges for use in the puluinatic guns on board the torpedo ship Vesuvius they are making a sub-marine torpedo boat which is expected to revolutionize marine warfare. The dynamite cartridge will contain 1()0 pounds of the explosive and is so constructed that it can remain under a vessel's bottom any time up to half an hour at the operator's discretion. The cartridge is made of magnetized iron which will cling to a vessel tenaciouly. The boat is fifty feet long, ten feet beam and ten feet depth of bold. Compart incuts filled with water submerge the boat so nothing but the top of the smokestack and the upper line ot the pilot house tre visible. It is thought the boat can sink any craft afloat.

Uphia In Farm and Flreslda. LOVERS AGAIN. A Significant comment on Mr. Maine's letter of withdrawal is found in a late issue of the Hrus sel L' Independence Helge. After discussing the significance of Mr. Maine 8 letter, it says: i.. iu tiny case, uowever, we in Europe must behold without sor row every occurrence likely to en feeble the republican party and increase the chances of the demo crats at the approaching election. If the candidacy of ex-President Cleveland, who is frankly for free trade, does not teem able to obtain a sufficent number of votes, being ti'.-ermined by that of Hill, governor of New York, at least it is certain that the democratic nominee, whoever lie may be, will have for a platform the policy of a revision, more or less radical, of the ultra-protectionist tariff enacted by the present administration of the United St ites. Every incident which intensifies the dissensions of the republican Iparty and dimin- uhes the probablity of the control of affairs by that party for a new term of four years must assist in strengthening in the United States the cause of free trade, which is to day more than everjnesessary to us. The withdrawal of Mr. Blaine ap pears to be such an incident. MAKING SOLDIERS OF RED MEN. Order is said to be "the first law of heaven," -'cleanliness is. akin to godliness," and "industry is the mother of virtue." Acting on these inaxiuin, in l.S'.K), a practical republican secretary of war conceived the idea that the true way to make an Indian into a good citizen is to first make a soldier of him. thus teaching him to be clean, orderly, and industri ous. To do ordinary work, to obey or dinary laws and rcgnlations.,to an radian seems degradation worthy inly of a squaw. Hut he is by in fc'inct and habit a soldier, and the wYiiii! of u soldier is, he thinks, manly. Taught to care for his horse, hi' anus, his uniform, his quarters, tof prompt, orderly, and obedieut as (1 soldier - win can doubt that the Indian lias made a long stride toward civilization and citizenship? Many companies of the hitherto untamable ved men l ave already been enlisted and are doing good sevrice. and Ilia good work i Still progressing. Out of the window of the old wooden bridge, whose hooded tunnel threw a nark bur acronB the moonlit mountain stream, a man and a woman stood look ing into the pine-clad amphitheater of the cliffs, which lay in stillness be- nentn tho spun of a September nicht The black hollow of thu bridge, with its one moonbeam sharp across tho floor.oontrasted with the awful splendor or the irranito gorge, buttressed ant; linnaclod in every rising tier, under the floor of ghostly light, and if the only object of the couple in coming here was to see the view they were nninly repaid. from their conversation since t hoy loft the hotel, which now luv behind mem, hidden by a fiiiiirci of tlm forer-l . .iii i i . . ii rtiium nave uren iiiiiieini, to say iikii in is was not, tiieir only obiert, The siimll talk of n'iUaiiiUiieeship, trie nii.siiip and even love is sviUnti ecr lain limiU.iuid union;; people habituat ed to eueh otber's emiM id ions, prae ticaHv iudi.4giiishiilde.

It was in this case knowledge of the. world and llm good temper of experi etiee that kept Mrs. lliigimin and l.il. ir i l . fuuiur ivmnairu on perieetiv un- riillled terms with each other.

Mrs. Jlugonin could. .. i. . . i - i . i . . .. . . wiiiioiu tnr siigniest relleelion upon her widowhood, accept once more the companionship of a man who tolerated life as comfortably as Arthur Kin- naird. The imminence of tho climac teric w hich she knew to be threatening nun was not to ue read ironi ins figure ins step was aieri, ins cheeKs were bronzed, his taste were rational, and what more could ho desire? She pushed hack her dark hair under its somewhat youthful cap, and, lean ing her elbows on the ledge, gazed, wmiout speaking, at the haunted de file. Kinnaird gave a little laugh be- lu lid ner. "Margaret," he said, "upon my word, it seems as if we were boy I I H nnu gin again. "W'hy.purticularly?" she asked.with out turning her head. "Oh, all this summer," ho replied, She didn't ask him to he more explicit "It is certainly an ideal place,'1 she said, w ith a half sigh. "Yet it is foolish to say that the beauties of nature re store one's youth. One mav feel younr again, out one is not really any tu less dispasMonate." "I am not so sure of that," said Kin nainl. "I should like to arue tha point with you - if it could he argued." "You men are all alike," said Mrs. Hugonin, with an inconsistent shrug of her shoulder. "You give up to logic what was meant for conversa tion." Kinnaird stroked his mustache thoughtfully for a moment. "And so you think me dispassionate?" he ob served. "Yon?" said Mrs. Hugonin. turning with a delightful laugh. "Why.Arthur, there isn't a .sentiment or a conviction to whose support society could order you to contribute!" "Jf you mean that," he said slowly, "it is quite as I feared." "As you feared?" "You still believe me capable of as much mistaken self-control us I once was. And," he added calmly, "I dou't wonder." Though there was no bitterness ap parent in his tone. Mrs. Hu-ronin wa startled. "Keallv. this is unlike mn Arthur." she said, gravely, but vet with a sense of amusement. "Vim petulant with the past? Yon provoked wuu your recollections? Indeed,! have mistaken you." He laughed, hut gently. "Coine. he said, you have no right to Is- ironical. Though I once let you mi. it was be. cause 1 thought you wanted to be re leased." 'Toon my word, Arthur." said Mr- Hugonin. "I did not know von wimp serious, or I should not have taken this a a joke." J am entirely m-rious." Keallv ?" said Mrs. HliL'ouili.aud vbn spoke with some irritation. "1 thought all had been forgotten aud forgiven yearn ago." Then she drew herelf up proudly.

Int. if "The rocks made me recollect," he went on, unheeding, "ihat one day when you wero about seventeen you and I climbed Lone Mountain to gether. And when we reached the ravine you insisted on going first, and I let you. Now I did that because I reflected that il yon fell I could catch you." "WellP" "You see, that was my first mistake. I should have gone first, and made you cling to my pardon me ooat tails." " ery likely." said Mrs. Hugonin, half laughing. "But I can't think it docs us any good to talk it over now." "After that," said Kinnaird, pursu ing his subject, "I acted consistently on the same mistaken Uiuury. And when it came to the question of giving you up, I thought always of you first! That was why I gave you up which you naturally considered a weakness." It did not escape Mrs. Hugonin that a dormant weakness of her own was reviving under the oontinuod stress of this absurd conversation a weakness for sentiment, but it was checked by her vexation with her friend for break ing their tacit understanding aud by thu feeling of half contemptuous pity that stole over hor as he spoke. Were she a man, she thought, she would never confess at 40 to the in comjietence of 25. That Kinnaird did so but absolved her again. Also, she reflected, she had had a headache yesterday, and, therefore, it was very lucky this conversation had not been started yesterday or she would have been much more provoked than she was now. "I shall not stop you," she said, in a half mischievous tone. "Go on 1 won't bo angry. You will perhaps ad mit that if there Is anything rankling it is as well for you to abuse me and have it over, even after nil these year, whose obituaries you have written." "My dear, my darling," ho said, his strong hand elasjiing hers so quickly that involuntarily her arm struggled like a bird's wing to wrest itself away, "it is well for me to tell thu only woman 1 ever loved that 1 love her still and do iiMt mean ti let her go again." "Arthur." "Margaret, I love you more than ever." "U is impossible!" 1 love you." "You Call IlOt. can not. bp in nirni.d " she stammered. "Win I.-,-. - ' , , 111! , never told me."
