ASTOK1A, OKEGON: SUNDAY. ...SEPTEMKER 13. 1ES5 iroijrr of repetition. erablo o the possibilities toward Lav ing a state fair at all; for years it lias talked agriculture and been replete with sensible ideas and suggestions, and now it is ignored by a circle of gentlemen who thus proclaim their own littleness. The flight of absconding bank presidents, cashiers, and financial agents, from this country to Canada, has become so common as to excite little remark, beyond the familiar newspaper heading: "Another good man gone wrong.'' All a rascal has to do is to skip across the line and defy the detectives. But a late oc currence would seem to make their tenure insecure, and the Canada colony of American rascals are in terror. There is a fluttering in the dove cotes, and the hawks may swoop noon the poor, defenseless birds at any time. A case in point is that of Lawrence Brainerd, who was for years a prominent man in Vermont. His father was once president of the Vermont Central railroad. He is a brother-in-law of ex-Governor Smith, president of the Vermont Central railroad, and was himself once presi dent of the Lomoyne Valley railroad, the St. Alban's savings bank and other concerns. He was thought to be immensely rich, and was honored highly, and was active in church and Sunday-school work. He speculated with the funds of his bank and wrecked it, causing the ruin of many business men and farmers in Ver mont He skipped with the spoils to "Winnipeg, Manitoba, lived quietly at the "Winnipeg hotel, and at first went out but little. Ho was oc casionally soeu at horse races and other sporting events. He told cer tain people that he was an American speculator, interested in mica mining, and he frequently exhibited speci mens. Two months ago two Boston detectives arrived, and one became acquainted with Brainerd. On the nth inst, one of the detectives and Brainerd started south on a duck shooting expedition several miles from the city in a lonely place. They were joined by the other detective and a friend. Brainerd was informed that they knew who ho was, and asked to go quietly with them across the border, to avoid the expense of legal proceedings. Brainerd refused, and the detectives overpowered him, bound him hand and foot, threw him into a' wagon and started for the boundary in hot haste. It is alleged that in order to prevent detection while passing through tho country villages they dragged Brainerd with laudanum. As Brainerd did not return his wife became alarmed and communicated with the police and a law firm. The police, who knew that detectives wore after Brainerd, started for the bound ary with all speed to intercept the kidnappers. On the way to St. Vin cent a railroad collision occurred and the police had a narrow escape. Last Sunday another special train was chartered and the police reached the boundary line, where the detectives, with Brainerd in custody, were found. The detectives refused to give their captive up, and while the police were searching for the authorities to ar rest the detectives, the latter put Brainerd in a wagon and drove off at railroad speed. This was the last seen of them and they arc now safe in Minnesota or Dakota. The Win nipeg police returned disgusted. There are more there who should be served the same way. The silver men are said to be very much alarmed on account of another fall in silver in London. The green back men are also alarmed at the re ported fall of paper and linen rags. It is amazing that in this alarming condition of things that the credit of a government to which we trust our lives, our persons, and our sacred honor, and even our money, should be going up. No one but a goldbug or a lunatic has any fear that the government which paid up several millions of its obligations, in interest ami otherwise, and has of late had more money on hand than it knew what to do with, will bo unable to pay the ten cents or so bullion differ ence between the gold dollar and the silver dollar, which it guarantees to pay.

A I The reieirincr sensation in Francisco is a daring attempt to tun nel from a saloon basement across Mission street to the mint, in which millions "were stored, which has just been discovered. A tunnel was com menced, hut the street caved in. Two notorious cracksmen, one named Reynolds, who were engaged in the scheme, escaped. It is thought that one of their confederates is buried in the cave. Our government is not disi 03ed to mako an attempt to save Kiel's neck. Secretary Bayard, on being consulted byaFrench Canadian gentleman on the subject, replied, in effect, that this government considers Riel's case none of its business that sinco he did his fighting on British soil, he ought to lake his chances with British law.

Father SrATJiiDiKG, who was a mis sionary among tbe Nez Perce Indi ans as early as 1839, wlicn there were not 500 white men west o the liocky mountains, tells the following stery: Ho was located at that time near where tho town of Lewiston, Idaho, now stands. One day, being down by tho Clearwater river, he was sur prised to hear a white man hail him from tho other side of the stream. Upon inquiring what he wanted, tho stranger answered that he was looking for a job of printing. The priest remembered that there were some printing materials among a lot of stores sent up to him by way ot tho Sandwich islands, so ho set tho stranger to work, and the result was a Nez Perces spelling book, which is still in use among those Indians. The printer's name was McCready, and ho had drifted alone and on foot into those far western wilds in search of adventure. Pather Spaulding still lives, and is hale and hearty.
