Wednesday's Daily. .
The commission of Alfred C. Sanford
as notary public was filed for record to
day. The case of T. G. Mitchell against O.
D. Taylor is on trial before a jury in the
circuit court this afternoon.
W. W. Branner, grand master i of the
A. O. TJ. W., arriyed from Pendleton
this morning, and will deliver an address
at the Congregational church, concern
ing that order, this evening.
Everybody is getting ready to attend
the grand masquerade, given by the
Workmen and Woodmen the night of
the 22d. It will be the greatest affair of
the kind ever given in this city.
Arrangements have been made where
by Rev. J. H. Wood, who is now con
ducting revival services in the M. E.
church, will occupy the pulpit of that
church during the remainder of the
conference year.
The lecture at the Congregational
church last night drew a large crowd
filling the spacious church. The views
were very fine, and the large audience
went home thoroughly pleased with
their evening's entertainment.
At Ihe meeting of the fire board held
last evening in the council room, H. J.
Maier was elected president and W. H.
Lochhead, secretary. The same were
duly sworn into their respective offices
by Recorder Dufur this morning.
The vote at Salem today, in spite of
the many head shakes by those who are
supposed to be running the machine in
Portland, did not show any material
change. It was as follows : Dolph 39,
Hare 10, Weatherford 7, Williams 11,
Lowell 12, Lord 5. Six members were
paired.
Elder J. W. Jenkins left for Dufur
this morning, and will preach there each
evening this week and twice on Sunday.
Subjects: . "The Love of God," "The
Authority of Christ," "Lessons rom
fye Holy Mount," "A New Testament
JExampIe of Conversion," "Sin and Its
Remedy."
The case of the State against' Guy
Southwell came to a sudden termination
on account of the prosecuting witness,
an Indian, swearing that the horse shot,
instead of belonging to him, belonged to
his wife, and as he was indicted for
shooting a horse belonging to the pros
ecuting witness, the testimony made a
fatal variance.
The grand jury today returned not a
true bill in the ease of the State against
Broadbent. The charge against him
was adultery, and as his wife refused to
appear against him, under the peculiar
laws of the state, the prosecution had to
be dropped. Before discharging the
prisoner Judge Bradshawgave him quite
a lecture which, if heeded, will be of
lasting benefit to the defendant. Among
other things he called his attention to
the fact that wifely forbearance under
certain condition ceased to be a virtue,
and warned him against again being
forced to rely on it for his liberty.
Thursday's Daily
The case of Mitchell against O. D.
Taylor, which began yesterday, is still
occupying the attention of the rcuit
court.
Major McNeil and a carload of gS$ern
ment officials went up to Celilo olp day
this week, to take a look at the proposed
route of the boat railway.
The large poles for the new telephone
line are nearly all in place and the
smaller ones on the hill will next be at
tended to. The main lines are run
through the alleys instead of the streets,
which is a good idea.
A special car attached to the local from
Portland this afternoon, brought the
party of capitalists of St. Louis, who
have been visiting the coast, from Port
land. They will remain here until 11
o'clock tonight going east and home at
that time. '
The D. P. & A. N. office is having a re
modeling, and a private office is being
fixed up back of the former one. Three
handsome signs are being painted, one
which will be placed on the opera house
opposite the Umatilla. The boats have
been overhauled and repaired, and are
in fine shape for the season's run. The
first regular trip will be made Wednes
day, a special trip by the Regulator,
Tji, Monday. .
The vote at Salem today was Dolph
39, Lowell 9, Hare 10, Weatherford 7.
Williams 11, Lord 8. Paired Smith
and Wright, Carter and Cooper, Denny
and Huston, But seven more legisla
tive days remain, and the situation
seems aa far from being settled as ever.

country from England.
The United States senate now has a
majority of republicans.
It looks as though the railroad com
mission would be abolished.
The legislature adjourns, or at least its
pay stops at midnight next Friday night.
Miss Emma Morse of Portland is in
the city, the guest of the Misses Rucb,

as an Easter bonnet and clean as the
republican sweep last year.
The Oregonian this morning asserts
that the whole aim and object of the bolt
from the caucus is to elect Lord sena
tor, and so make Kincaid governor. -
Mr. Eugene Gordon wishes to sell his
household furniture, carpets, cooking
utensils, etc. This is a rare opportunity
to secure a bargain. Inquire at Pease &
Mays.
The day has been a cloudy one, with
some dark leaden-colored nanus oi
clouds banging over the mountains west
of us. From all indications we are
going to have some weather of the
sloppy and windy variety.
James Williams and Thomas Moore,
who pleaded guilty to the charge of
burglary in the robbing of Leaving &
Cates store at Cascades, were sentenced
this morning each of them being given
two years in the penitentiary.
Judge Bradshaw cleaned up the crim
inal and law dockets this morning and
discharged all jurors. This is one of the
shortest terms of court ever held here.
There is some equity business yet to be
settled, but the main expense has been
cut off.
The case of T. G. Mitchell against O.
D. Taylor was dismissed this morning,
the court ruling that the action to re
cover for the value of the stock was not
the proper remedy, and that if any
cause of action exists, it is an action of
damages.
Grand Master Workman Brannin,
after a pleasant, and to the order profit
able, visit here, leaves tonight for Ar-
lington, where he will speak in behalf of
the order. Mr. Brannin is an excellent
gentleman, and a fine speaker. As a re
sult of his lecture here there are already
nearly a dozen applications for member
ship. "
The vote at Salem today shows no
change. It was as follows : Dolph 41,
Lowell 12, Williams 10, Lord 7, Hare 10,
Weatherford 1, Raley 7. Paired Smith
and Rinearson. The vote as we have
said is unchanged except as to the un
important part thereof. Senator Raley
was giyen 7 votes by the democracy, and
Lord's vote ran up to 7 from 5 yesterday,
His Face Painted.
Al. Espinggot a hard fall in the Uma
tilla House parlor this morning. He
was painting the window casings, stand
ing on a stepladder. While reaching
across the window the foot of the ladder
slipped, and he fell, striking his hip on
the ladder and his head on the window-
sill. The paint-pot came down last and
emptied most of its contents on Esping's
face, filling his mouth, nose and eyes,
Floyd Harmon soon came to his assist
ance, and succeeded in getting paint
enough out of his mouth to permit his
breathing, and in a few minutes he was
all right except a badly bruised hip,
which .will stay with him for several
days. The carpet had some splashes of
color not calculated on by its designer,
but they were removed without damag
ing it.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent. N
Washington, Feb. 8, 1895,
' Wise men can give good advice, but
the wisest of men cannot compel the ac-
ceptance of their advice. ' Ex-'Speaker
Reed's substitute for the Cleveland gold
bond bill, which declarations of eena
tors made an impossibility before it was
voted upon by the house, proves the
truth of this statement. Mr. Reed
bill would, if enacted into a law, provide
the government with means to raise the
gold reserve fund to its proper amount.
and by providing the secretary of the
treasury with money to meet deficiencies
iu the revenues of the government until
such time as the revenues of the govern
ment ehould exceed the expenditures,
would keep the gold reserve intact,
Here is Mr. Reed's statement of the
situation: "We were redeeming green
backs when-they were presented. If
the revenue was -equal to the expendi
tures, whenever a greenback was re
deemed it would stay in the treasury
and this notwithstanding the fact the
secretary is authorized to re-issue ; for
it is not either the authorization or even
the demand of the law that they bhall
be re-issued that causes the trouble. It
is the fact that they are re-issued. It is
the fact that their re-issuance causes this
continued depletion of the treasury."
"Much ado about nothing" is about
the only correct title to apply to the
financial debate and the votes taken
this week in the house, Every man of
even average intelligence knew betore-
hand that it made not the slightest dif
ference what the house did or what it
failed to do, as far as the accomplish
ment of any financial legislation was con
cerned. They knew that Mr. Cleveland
had all bis arrangements made for an
other bond issue, and that it would be
made. About the only result of the de
bate in the house was that it enabled
some of the outgoing democrats to put
in a strong claim for presidential ap
pointment to office.
jfublic Jfnnter .Benedict has never
been popular with members of the G
A. K., but his impolite treatment of a
committee from that organization which
called on him for the purpose of asking
the reinstatement of comrades who had
been ' dismissed without cause, has
aroused a hatred towards him iu the
breasts of all soldiers, which Mr. Bene
diet may live to regret.- "I have ad
mitted you here today in order to be
able to tell you that you will never be
admitted again," were the words Bene
dict greeted the G. A. R. committee
with when they were admitted to his
office. He not only refused in impolite
language to reinstate - any of the dis
charged veterans, but be even refused
to look at the list prepared bv the com
mittee, saying curtly, "Not one of them
will be put back," and when the com
mittee stood dumbfounded at such treat
ment, he angrily - continued: "There is
nothing further to be said ; what are you
waiting for?"
The senate had another spell of plain
talk a bo at Hawaii and its ultimate an
I aeration over the amendment to the
diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill providing $500,000 to begin the work
of laying a cable between San Francisco
and Honolulu and authorizing the pres
ident to enter into a contract for the en
tire work.
Slowly but surly the power 'of the
democrats has slipped away from them
in the senate. Up to last Saturday they
bad a majority of that body, but upon
that day by swearing in of Senator Man
tle, of Montana, they lost their majority
and only bad enough votes left to tie
the senate on a full vote. Now they
have lost that power as another new re
publican Senator Clark, of Wyoming
was on Wednesday sworn in.
The Fruit Men.
Mr. Emil Scbanno has just 'returned
from Portland where he has been attend
ing the meeting of the State Board of
Horticulture. He was highly pleased
with his visit, and says that the only
counties that had any fruit exhibit worth
mentioning were Wasco and Union, and
that the former, owing largely to the in
terest that Hood River took in the mat
ter and her contributions, wasjthe better.
Mr. Schanno is an active member of the
board, and insists that the money now
appropriated for the use of the board is
sufficient. He says with consideiable
f jresight, that if the money set apart for
the horticnltural board is increased
amount, the office will become a political
one for the reward of political workers.
and will be filled by 'persons who know
no more about fruit than the railroad
commissioners do about railroads, and
who will be after the place simplv fo:
the money in it. As it is the mone
would tempt no one, and conseque
only some person interested in the
ness would accept the place.
