Tbe alliance is a non-partisan body
and tbe state institutions and state offi

particular occasion of these resotatioi
is tbe attacks that are being mde opon
Geo. S. Downing' management of the
State Prison.
Aim frof t t) nrly tay that by all fair rols
rew Yci-,.'DowuIne has been ac
quitted. A Republican legislature, suc
cessive grand juries mule op Urgely of
Republicans, who bad all tbe witnesses
and all the official ana unofficial, pub
lic and private, actual and hearsay tea
Umony and gossip laid before them, af
ter fully considering, and bearing the
worst that can be said, or that has ever
been said, they refu to find Mr.
Downing guilty.
Tbe resolutions are very sweeping.
They Indict our whole late govern
ment, No words are wasted upon the
legislature. It was a badly organized
and badly conducted body. No one
seemed able to stem the strong tide of
corrupting influence that started with
tbe speakership centest: Marion coun
ty bad a strong delegation but they
were oot strongly united or at least not
strong enoagh to resist tbe combina
tion of boodle and Ignorance that al
ways naturally coalesces iu such bodies.
It was feared by some people that
this county would get speakers of both
houses. No one doubu now, after all
that baa been said about Salem as
wanting to bog tbe government of tbe
whole state, that it would btwe been
better for the whole state If Geer and
Hirsch had both been elected presiding
officers. But It could not well be and
tbe state baa paid the heavy penalty of
a far-reaching ooiruptlug combination
In tbe legislature.
Tub Journal believes in pursuing a
fair and cons native cour?, but it is
also a firm believer In the doctrine tha'
animates a great many people in Ore
gon and all over tbe country, to-wlt:
that with all tbe growth of schools and
churches and circulation of books and
aewspapers there Is not a good and suf
ficient reason why government should
cost so much and be worth so little.
Iu other word, tbe people are entitled
to more actual busluess results from
government. They should be taxed
IM for ludiflulte and unknown pur
poses of political suolls. They should
fet better results from what tbey do
pay Id the way of belter roads, better
wools, better markets, cheaper rail-

by tbe people and for tbe people l
pretty nearly as great a myth as that of

tbe great money centers, with public

Have the people no cause to complain? (
It looks as the' tbe Giant was killing i
Jack. Is legislation anv lonzerreore-
"
sentaiive; Aia tne peopteever aurnor-i
ize tbe last Oregon legislature to appro-1
priate f 120,000 for military purposes?
W tbere ever a word said about it in
a state platform ? We , do not blame
any of the militia organizations for get-)
ting this money if tbey ran. Tbe mil
itia may be necessary and tbe men at
the bead of It are honorable gentlemen.
But we do not believe tbe people of thh
county would elect a man to vote that
sum for that purpose, or anywhere ex
cept in Portland ? And why should
tbe whole t-tate be taxed to maintain a
militia etablubment to protect tbe
corporations and foreign money-lenders
of Portland against tbe poeaibilityof a
cooley or bread riot ? It is not tbe mil
itia the people protest against, so
much as tbe fact that tbey are no long
er their own masters but must pay
taxes wbieh tbey never consented to
pay.
Of course, this is oaly an illustration
of tbe character of mueh of the work of
the legislature in this state. There was
no determined well organized fight ev
en among tbe reform elements of that
body to keep down extravagance and
improper appropriations. Tboje who
made a flbt on the mifilia bitU and
tbe clerkship :vil were not so effective
but that in each case tbey were not only
voted down but bad tbe evil doubled '
up on them in spite oi tbeir utmost ex-i
ertions. Their failure is reeretted bv
all tut will hardly amount to hero'sm
in defence of the taxpayer, c-o far aj

The proper captr just at present is to
have one's portrait dose in cd, a very de

about tbe costbest fad, however, which
has fastened itlf on the money lockers

called, is always wiBiag to amuse itself
with fads. Nooe of the fashionabl4

to a portrait for which tbey will receive

j But a very formidable rival has now
been found to the national diih is a pe
culiar kind of herring-, duly label!, is
' accordance with the act, "made ia Gr
' many," which formed the rabjws! of a
' law cae before tha assistant judge of
I tbe Westminster county court. The
! mysterious herrings are sold in tins, their
technical name bin3 "Denttche deb-
".- u uuaaa 47
bits." A firm in the fatherland sent over
some of these delicacies to Mr. Lin gen, a
restaurant keeper in the city, and when
that gentleman failed to sell them, owing
to their 93-horse power odor, it seed him
for the price 5 lis. 6d.
The restaurant keeper's defease was
simple: "Dey smell the schoppe out,
and I vcnld get dree months if I sell
them. I never smell anyricg dat vaa so
high." His shopman's opinion was:
"Mein herr. if you no get rid of dem
smelleren&st fish as ever I smeiled. ve
will all die of de cholera." Srronser
testimony was still produced in the
shape of a tm of the "delicatessen,'"
which was opened for the judge's edifi
cation. The court held its nee until
the box was carried out of tbe building
and then gave a verdict for the defend
ant. Mr. Lingen said he sold only one
tin, and the customer who purchased it
brought it back and declared that it was
more powerful than all the Si odors of
Cologne combined. London Letter.

Out old nglish military punishments
were not destitute of ingeniously de
vised discomfort.
For instance, there was the wooden
horse on a movable stand, made in the
similitude of that animal, with head and
tail attached to increase the likeness, of
planks nailed together and meeting in a
sharp ridge. Upon this ridge, as upon
the back of a horse, the culprit rode
astride with his hands tied behind him
and his legs dragged down by attached
muskets to prevent, according to a
ghastly joke of that time, his horse kick
ing him.
There was also the picket, a kind of
torture in which one band was fastened
to a book in a post above the head of the
criminal, while his suspended body was
supported by bis bare heel resting on a
wooden stump, narrowed, to cause him
the greater inconvenience.
These punishments werejiiscontinued
as leading to rupture and lameness. In
running the gantlet or the gantlope the
wretched soldier ran between two lines
of his comrades and was beaten by
switches ami insulted by the worst of
them a form of torture degrading sol
diers to executioners, and perhaps the
most cowardly and intolerable ever con
ceived. London Tit-Bits.
A Woman' Gift.
Another princely gift has been made
to the Teachers' college, to which Mr. G.
W. Yanderbilt presented the building
lots near the site of the Columbia col
lege. The gift is from a woman living
outside the ctty. and her only condition
is that her name shall be kept a secret.
Two hundred thousand dollars have been
subscribed by the unknown donor for a
building to be known as the Department
of Mechanic Arts.
The main building for the college will
cost f&O.OCO. and of this amount 150.
000 has been collected, $53,000 having
been subscribed on condition that the
remaining amount shall be collected.
This the trustees are confident of doing
within the year. An important phase
af the work in tha Teachers college will
bo the alliance already provided with
Columbia college. Xew York Sun.
