Spokane Review, that many of the cures
wrought by so-called bichloride of gold
process were only ephemeral, after all,
and that the old topers are turning out
early in the morning for their eye
opener pretty much as they have so often
.. turned out after the. temperance crusade j
. had run its course. I
The truth is that there is nothing new I
in the Keelev institute for the cure of !
drunkeness. Inebriate hospitals have
. .been established in different parts of the
country for many years; and -it now
seems probable that there was nothing
new either in tae course of treatment by
these modern institutes. - Analyses of
the so-called bichloride of gold remedy,
made by a chemist-of this city, failed to
disclose the presence of either soldium
or gold in any form, and analyses made
by eastern chemists have resulted in the
same manner. ' The secret of the won
' derfnl cures that have made lies in the
positive manner iu which cures were
promised, and to the fact that to give
the patient renewed hope the pleasing
" thought of an entirely new discovery
was thrown out. These influences are
always ' powerfully- exertive upon
"minds of hopeless invalids or inebriates,
and can do more iu such cases than all
the drugs that were everetacked upon j :
iue apotuevary b bi'civce. - i
But the strength of the new treatment
is also its weakness; such a feeling of
confidence is imparted to the patient
. that he returns home with the belief
tkat the drug had destroyed the appe
tite, and that he can look upon the wine
when it is red without falling into the
oldtinie weakness. ' The consequence
has been that some of the most promis
ing cures are now suffering with a lam
entable relapse.
. The best way to stamp out dipsomania
is to leave alchol severely alone. An in
toxicant can not be -poured tnto the !
stomach of even the strongest man with
out leaving its evil effects. It is worse
for a well man than for the invalid, for
it disturbs the normal balance of health.
It is. vthe pioneer of disease sapping
away at the constitution until the work
of undermining is done, and leaving an
easy pathway for the silent emissaries of
death. No drug can overcome, these
evil influences although drugs may oc
casionally be used as an adjunct - to the
will of the patient.

VARIETY.
TJIIi ELECTIONS;
Returns from yesterday'selection leave
democratic and republican hopes and
fears pretty much as they were. The
results give no sound basis for poli
tical calculation as to what may or may
. not occurr when we como tc elect a
president. The election of McKinley by
20,000 majority would indicate that the
people will not abandon the principle
- of protection without a hard struggle.
' At any rate McKinleyism .is certainly
not dead by a long way, and political
forecast must take this into account.
. The report of Superintendent Farley
containing a statement of the gross re
ceipts of the Cascade portage for the
past month, will sufficiently answer the
many criticisms offered on the rates
fixed by the commission, without any
knowledge of the. facts in the case. Had
they been fixed lower they would hot
have meet the current expenses. ' To
make any reduction from present rates
a reduction must be made in the opera
ting expenses. Jinis is tiie course re
commended by the superintendent and
adopted by the board. The office of the
superintendent will be merged into that
of manager who will have entire control.
. Mr. Farley's work will be done about
the end of the month and he will re
sign. The reduction in the running ex
penses recommended by the superinten
dent amounts to between three to four
hundred dollars a month. The com
missioners wete very anxious to accede
to the suggestions of Mr. Farley and the
directors of the peoples' boats, and every
cent of reduction possible will be given
in a corresponding reduction o( rates.
We may add that the directors of the
peoples' boats accompanied superinten
. dent Farley to Salem and there was
nothing but the utmost harmony be
tween all parties. The directors' feel
that they cannot speak too highly of the
consideration shown them by the board
of portage commissioners. ' .

most populous part of tne city. The
Italian sprang from behind a tree as she
was passing, and eeizing ,her by the
throat, shoved her violently against a
fence. The girl fought the villian
bravely, but the firm clutch at her
throat prevented her at first from mak
ing any outcry, By a desperate, effort,
however, she - wrenched the Italian's
hand away and screamed loudly for
help. Her cries of "Murder!" caused a
commotion - among the congregation,
who were just coming from the church.
P. F. Boyle, president of the council,
who witnessed the assault, and a num
ber of others ran to the girl's rescue.
When the fiend saw them approaching,
he let go of his victim and ran down the
street. A number of the congregation
followed. He dodged through several
streets, closely followed by his pursuers,
and finally managed to make his escape.
The girl was badly frightened, and part
of her clothing was torn, but she sus

of S4800.
La Glandk, Or., Nov. 4. A robbery'
which exceeded the recent Enterprise
affair in the amount taken was per
petrated upon the Farmers Mortgage
and Savings bank of Su'mmerville this
county last night.
Summerville is a village three miles
from the,Elgin "branch of the Union
Pacific, and sixteen miles north of this
city. As the mails reach the village late
in the evening and leave early in the
morning it was the custom of H. C.
Kinehart, cashier of the bank to attend
to his correspondence after supper. As
he was leaving the bank about 9 o'clock
last evening he was met at the door by
two men with sacks over their heads,
who pressed pistols to his head and or
dered him to go back and open the safe.
He stepped back into the room and they
followed him, pulling down the blincs
and lighting the lamp.
They desplayed great coolness, not
only taking all the money in the safe
but examining the papers as well. The
amount taken was $4,800 after leaving
the bank they went on foot towards the
timber. There is much excitement in
Summerville this morning and prepara
tions are being made to institute a
thorough search for the robbers, who it
is supposed are residents of . the neigh
borhood.

The Trial, of the Question on Appeal
Began This Morning;.
London, ov. 2. In the court ot ap
peals the Maybrick case was commenced
today. Sir Charles Russell, in opening
his argument, said the appeal raised a
most important question. The plain'
tiffs, for whom he appeared, were the
executors of the late Mr. Maybrick, who
had effected an insurance of $10,000 with
the defendants, the insurance company,
in favor of his wife, Mrs. Florence May
brick, now confined in the working jail.
Defendants' counsel said he had paid on
account $1000 of the amount claimed,
but that they refused to pay the remain
der. In support of this refusal he said
defendants admitted the conviction of
Mrs. Maybhick was not conclusive.
Continuing, Sir Charfes said on the con
trary, the plaintiffs submitted . the fact
that the sentence was commuted was
not an evidence of innocence. The real
question was whether Mr. Maybrick,
having effected a policy in favor of his
wife, and whether, assuming he died at
her hands, this was any answer to the
executor's claims. "The ex-attorney-general
then proceeded to cite authori
ties in favor ot contention. The present
appeal grew out of a judgment given
July 20 last, in an action brought in the
interest of Mrs. Mry brick against the
insurance association, to recover $10,000
insurance upon her husband's life. ; The
court then decided, as. Mrs. Maybrick
had been convicted of having murdered
her husband she could not recover the
amount for which his life was insured
as his death was caused bv the person
for whose benefit the action was brought,
The day alter this -judgment was ren
dered, a high legal authority made the
assertion that the insurance association
refusal to pay Mrs. Maybrick the insur
ance on her husband's life, on the ground
that his death was caused by her, would
enable the convicted woman to brine
out in a civil action facts traverses in
the murder trial, since she could compel
the insurance-company to prove she
murdered her husband. ' This high legal
authority is said to have based his
opinion on the fact that, according to
the English law, a conviction is not
eroof between other parties, but only
etween the prosecution and the prisoner.

IN IOWA.
Des Moines, Nov. 4. The Register
(rep.) says: "The republicans are hope
ful. The returns on governor are not
exhilarating but tho country precincts
may elect Wheeler. The remainder of
the state ticket is probably elected by a
safe plurality. ' No definite returns from
the legislative districts, but the republi
cans are hopeful'of a repubtican majority j
in both houses."
The Leader (dem.) says: "The day
was ours. Iowa rolls up an increased
democratic plurality. Governor Boies
for president. The democratic masses
of the west still lead the people. Iowa
farmers were with1 him. The demo
crats gained all over the' 'state. Two
hundred and fift3--five precincts give a
net democratic gain of 540.'V '
The situation in this state has. not
changed materially. Up tol o'clock-504
precincts out of a total of 1940 have
reported. They gave wheeler (rep.)
68,000 and Boies (dem.) 69,035. The
same precincts last year gave Hutchin
son (republican) 59,314, Boies (demo
crat) 59,932, . a net democrat gain of
315. The republican committee is still
hopeful, on account of the county' dis
tricts which have been slow in report
ing. Ihe democrats claim the whole
state ticket as elected. Tlie republicans
claim all but governor, and will not con
cede that until the back precincts are
heard from. The democrats concede to
the republicans the lower house of the
legislature, and claim the senate will be
a tie. In the senatorial district in doubt
the chances are conceded with republi
cans. If the republicans carry it, sen
ate will stand republicans 27 to dem
ocrats 25.

Cleveland's Views.
New Yoke, Nov. 4. Ex-President
Grovor Cleveland today gave his opin
ions of the result of Tuesday's election
as follows: "Any oue who still thinks
the tariff reform settled and an absolute
issue or that of the importance of sound
and safe money question, upon which
the people can be blinded, are either
wilfully wrong or dangerously dull. -I
very much regret the defeat of Governor
Campbell. He would have been a brave
and honest official in this, and the
Splendid canvatw he made entitled him
to success.
While the election of Flower, Russell,
and Boies ought to cause the ntmost re
joicing among the democrats, they
should not forget that with these things !
comes obligations to be true to the!
people, honest in the advocating of
pure principles ' and decent in all
things."

New Yokk, Nov. 4. The Herald says:
"We are convinced that the electron of
Flower will prove a sort ot boomering to
the democratic party in the presidential
campaign in next year, and a blessing in
disguise to the republicans. The latest
returns this morning show Flower's
plurality over Fassett in the state to be
40,055. The whole democratic state
ticket is elected.
In this city Flower's plurality is 58,-
857, showing a democratic .falling off of
more than ten thousand from the vote
for Hill in 1888. The assembly goes
democratic by eight although the repub
licans claim they have it. !
Returns received from the associated
press up to noon today show the dem
ocrats elect 14 senators and the repub
licans 14. Four districts are still, iu
doubt, but the returns so far received,
indicate that the democrats will carry
three of these, and the republicans one.
The same returns indicate that the
assembly will stand 61 republicans, to
64 democrats and one county democrat
who was endorsed by the republicans of
the democratic scats, four are still in
some doubt and of the republicans one
is doubtful.

the legislature are very incomplete.
The senate will be -republican. The
house has complete returns from 137

these stand ninety-two republicans to

council will probably stand seven repub

.is certainly encouraging and proves the
strong vitality of the republican party
audits principles."
The Enquirer says: "Blaine " could
carry Massachusetts next year "and
probably President Harrison could.
The New. York republicans want Blaine
for president and figures show that he
can carry that state. The west is still
restive. There is one man who can cer
tainly recall every wondering western
state and his name is 'Blaine.' "
The Baltimore American says the tide
which set, so heavily against the repub
lican party in '90 has already ebbed and
is rapidly and unmistakable a continu
ance of a movement in the opinion
which caused the astonishing political
result of November 3rd.
The Boston Herald (independent)
predicts a republican defeat in the pres
idential year unless the party modifies
its high tariff views. The Globe says
New York ranges herself with the glori
ous line of states to be counted upon as
surely democratic in '92. Of the result
in this state the Transcript
was great personal triumph for Governor
Russell." The Advertiser (rep.) says:
"It is evident from the greatly dimin
ished plurality of Governor Russell as
compared with last year's figures, Mas
sachusetts is returning to her (rep.)
allegience." The Post says: "The
majority are not so very large but just
think what it means. It means Mas
sachusetts is now a doubtful state,
doubtful for the republicans, but pretty
certain for democrats. It is flowing in
an opposite direction so rapidly that the
republican national triumph in '92 may
be reasonably-anticipated.
The English View.
London, Nov. S.--The Globe this morn
ing says in referring to the electiens just
held in the United States : "They prove
beyond a doubt that there is a popular
reaction in favor of the McKinley tariff."
The-Pall Mall Gazette says: , "The re
sult of the elections clears the tield for a
distinct trial of strength between Har-
rison and Cleveland with a strong prob
ability that Cleveland will win."
