It .Will Be a House That Is Already
Built.
Washington, Oa. 8. Admiral Dewey
has elected to accept a house in Wash
ington already constructed, instead of
having one built for his occupation. The
admiral was officially informed today of
the purpose of the people of the United
States to present him with a home in
Washington. He frankly exprcesed hie
gratification at the tender, which he
immediately accepted. He said had the
proposed home been the gift of a few
wealthy men he should have felt indis
posed to accept it, but he noted that the
fund bad over 43,000 subscribers, indi
cating that it waB to be really a gift of
the American people, and aa such' he
would accept it with as much pleasure
as he had the sword bestowed upon him
by congress.

During the winter of 1897 Mr. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens and
merchants of Clnv. Clay Co., W. Va.,
struck his leg against a cake of ice in
such a manner as to bruise it severely.
It became very much swollen and pained
him so badly that he could not walk
without the aid of crutches. Ho was
treated bv nhysicians, also used several
kinds of liniment and two and a half
gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but
nothing gave any relief until he began
using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This
brought almost a complete cure in a
week's time and he believes that had he
not used this remedy his leg would have
had to be amputated. Puiu Balm is nn

Aguinaldo Quotes Atkinson.
Aguinaldo, in a proclamation announc
ing the release of American prisoners
and authorizing Filipino soldiers in the
northern nrovince to return to their
homes, says:
"In America there is a great party
that insists that the government recog
nize Filipino independence. That party
will compel the United Stales to fulfill
the promises made to us in all solemnity
and good faith, though not put into
writing.
"Therefore we must show our gratitude
and maintain our position more resolute
ly thaa ever. We should pray to Ood
that tho great Democratic party may
win the next presidential election and
imperialism fail in its mad attempt to
subjugate, us by force of arms. There
are some Americans in the Philippines
who have joined us because they disap
prove a war of what Mr. Atkinson calls
criminal aggression. When ottered
chance to return to their own camp, they
declined."
Throughout the proclamation Aguin
aldo denounces the "impeiialists" In
stead of the "Americans," as in former
documents. He calls the world to wit
ness that the Filipinos have not broken
"the alliance made through Admiral
Dewey with the Americans and with the
American consuls at Hong Kong and
Singapore." The people, on seeing the
li,m,an nrisnners. cried out : "We do
not want war against the United States;
we only defend our independence against
the imperialists. The sons ot
mighty nation are our friends."

Complaints From Sheepmen
Pendleton, Oct. 0. Some rather hard
feelings have been engendered among
the Umatilla county sheepmen by what
ihev term the injustice of having sheep
men from another state come into their
territory and range their bands during
the summer season, and thus depriving
local owners of plenty of feed. 80 closely
have the ranges been hunted out all
throuah the livestock regions of Oregon
and Washington of late years that legis
latures in the two slates have been im
portuned to pass restrictive measures
calculated to prevent the bringing of
sheep from one state into the other.
La shave been enacted by the legisla
tures of both states, in response to
this popular demand, which have made
it somewhat burdensome to move sheep
from one state to another.
Tn this instance, the quarantine laws
in force in Oregon, to regulate the hand
ling ol sheep, have been invoked ly
1. ftl sheepmen, to hinder Washington
men from the free and easy use of the
range here.
On the other hand, Oregon men cl aim
that like laws have been passed by the
Washington legislature, the operation

Bishop Henry C. Potter is going to the
Philippines. This was learned positively
last night, although tbe bishop himself
is reticent as to his plans and refused to
admit anything more than that tie was
going to Honolulu. He will, however,
visit the Philippines as well, and Is at
loted three or four months for bin trip.
He will probably Btart today or tomor
row for the West, though it is not known
certainlv that he will not postpose his
leavetaking until early next week.
The bishop's mission is an ecclesias
tical one. He goes in bis official ca pacity
in behalf of the Protestant Episcopal
church in America. Some time ago there
was formed a commission to represent
the church in this ccuntry known as the
commission of "responsibilities," and
Bishop Potter was made one of tbe mem
bers. The object in forming the com
mission was to obtain data on the op
portunities for the church to do work in
the islands which tho events of this and
the last year have brought within the
jurisdiction of the United Slates govern
ment. It is essontially a commission for
misBlonary.work, and Bishop Potter has
been selected to examine that part of
which is comprised in the Hawaiian is
lands and the Philippines.

FOR 8AI.K BY
Blakeley & Houghton.
-Nkw Youk, Oct. 9 The Tribune's
Paris correspondent says : The militant
attitude of the Roman Catholic clergy of
France from the outset of tbe Dreyfus
agitation may "be followed by far-reaching
consequences. iot since mo clerical en
croachnif nts which led to the coup d'etat
of May 16, 1877, have the French clergy
taken such violent part in active politics.
M. Jonnart, the influential deputy
from tbe Pas du Citlals, a moderate con
servative Republican and a liberal
Catholic, who occupied the portfolio of
minister of public works in the Casimii-
Pericr ministry In 1893, has written a
remarkable letter to M. Comely, iu
which he points out that the Dreyfus
affair has been utilized by the clericals
and monarchists solely as a pretext for
making a desperate onslaught upon the
republic, and upon all liberal institutions
and ideas. M. Jonnart's views are en
dorsed by the Figaro, the Temps, the
Matin, the Siecle, the Aurore and by all
the nswspapers that had tho courage t r
honesty to espouse the cause of tru h
and justice.
Clear-headed conservative Catholn 1
like M. Ilebrard, the editor of the
Temps; M. Rodays, editor of Figaro; M.
Comely and M. Jonntrt, do not hesitate
to declare that open hostility of the
French clergy toward tbe republic is
such that:they fear not only that there
will be anti-clerical reprisals, but that
when these reprisals once begin thny
will become so vindictive that no one
can say where they will end. The radical
nd social press already demand the
expulsion of the Jesuits and all the
religious congregations.
The clericals utterly ignore the encycli
cal which Leo XIII recently addressed
to the French bishops, enjoining them
in mild academic language to use their
influence to restrain the partisan zeal
of the lower cleruy. Tbe encyclical is
very different from the forcible one of
February 16, 1892, in which the pope so
clearly indicated to French Catholics
that it was their bonndenduty to arcept
the republic as tbe firmly established
form of government. Both of these papal
admonitions are utiheeded, and the
clerical organs more violently than ever
declare that in order to be a good
Catholic one must first of all be "anti-
Dreyfusard."
During the last five veais the religious
congipgationa wiucn were uiBperseu in
1S80 have re-ehtablisbrd themselves,
and.adruitly profiting by their former
experience, have more than regained
their tornier tmwer.

AGAIN PRICES
HAVE ADVANCED
Highest Figure Ever Paid on Columbia
For Silversides.
Astoria, Or., Oct. 8 The price of fall
fish was advanced again today by both
the cannerymen and the cjld-storage
people. The original price fixed by all
interests at the beginning ol the fall sea
son was two cents. The cannerymen paid
a quarter of a cent in advance of this
and called it canimiesion. When this
was found out all the cold-storage
interests raised the price to 2i cents.
Tills price has been met by tbe cannery
men, both the combine and other
cannoriee, and tody C, Alter has set the
price at three cents, which the other
cold-storage buyers will probably meet
tomorrow.
The only fish now delivered are filver
sides, and three cents a pound for them
is as high as has ever been paid for fall
fish. This price about equals thai now
being paid on Puget sound, with an ad
vantage locally, as the li-h can be packed
cheaper here. There is still a good
margin, and the price may yet go higher
unless the cannerj men uud cold-storaga
men shall get together.
The run of fish is li:h, and there are-
very few caught except silversides.
