Over twelve luiaea 1 00 COS VKSTIOS AFTSRV.l Til. The Republican county convention held here vesterdsv was the most harmonious political gathering that ever assembled in The Dalles. There was no! a motion made, a suggestion ottered, a resolution piesented that was not accepted without a dissent ing voice. The convention seemed to know what it wanted to do and il went about and did it in short order, Congressman Moody special work ers bad it all their own way, so far as their main object was concerned the election of a solid Moody delega tion to the congressional and state conventions. The names suggested by Mr. Moody's friends for delegates were accepted by the convention with a promptness and cordiality that was highly complimentary to Mr. Moody. If there was the slight est dissent it cast no discernable shadow on the convention. Sheriff Kelly's renominalion to succeed him self was esteemed a fit testimony to the prevailing impression as t bis faithfulness to duty aid efficiency. Al Like won the nomination for tilerk by the sheer force of his own personality. It was no discredit to Simeon Bolton that be came out second in a race with Al Lake. Mr. Bolton has made an enviable record for himself as a faithful, obliging and efficient deputy and it is doubtful if there is another man in Wasco county, save Mr. Lake, who could Lave beaten him for the nomination. Mr. Blowers won the nomination for the county judgsbip over two men who would have honored the office bad they ever been elected to fill il. 1'iik Chronci.e has the highest re spect for the defeated candidates but it has not a particle of doubt that the future will jurtify the choice of the convention. By the nomination of C. L. Schmidt for assessor, the county is assured of an able and efficient administration of an office that requires more brains, more sense, more honesty and more back bone than any other in the gift of the people. Tbe renomination of C, L. Gilbert to the superintendency of public schools over Troy Shelly, man of distinguished record for con- scienciouiness and faithfulness, is striking testimony to Mr. Gilbert's popularity. As to the treasurership, three good men were defeated in the race apparently because the conven tion thought that tbe county funds could not be intrusted to better or safer bands than those of C. L. Thillips. Peter Kircheiner had it all bis own way for commissioner and it is doubtful if a belter choice could bave been made. Surveyor Golt succeeds himself because the conven tion did not think it could do belter, and Butts ' Dad" Butts the caa didate for coroner, wasn't nominated al alii The convention, when it came to sit on his case, simply Lout d "Bulls" with one voice and Chairman Kutk declared him the nominee of the convention. And thus ended a convention that will Jong remain memorable for the har mony ihat characterized its proceed ings. The ticket is unquestionably a strong one and our friends, the enemy, will have to bustle like Sam Hill to beat any part of it. t.V ISirOSSWLK ASSVMl'TlOS. K..hli CaunUr c.nn, r - 7ifi.Affl.Ria Frenchwoman, who was attached iu some way to the royal household, was detected in a conspiracy thai aimed at the assassination of the queen. The woman was arrested ar,d ordered into Iho queen's pre ence. 'Tograteful wretch," said Elizabeth, "what should I do to a miscreant like you?" "Doc your majesty," said the Frenchwoman," "sak to me as a Jud;o or as a queen?" "I speak to you," said Elizabeth, "as a queen." "Then you should forgive me," wa the answer. "But," said tbo queen, "If 1 fotglve you what assurance can you give me that you will not re new your attempts against my life?" "Giace," resHnded tho French woman, "that hath conditions, grace fettered by precautions, is not grace."' This bold response, It Is said, so pleased Elizabeth that she promptly ordered the woman's release from custody and ever afier bound her to her person by the ties of gratitude and affection. Gold win Smiih describes Queen Elizabeth as false and perfidious, heartless and selfish, capable at times of hateful cruelty, vain and indelicate, and a virago who "spat and swore and cuffed her would-l.e lovers when she was post middle age and the last traces of her youthful eomelinoss bad fled." Yet she bad Tenia; kable arts of popularity when she chose to observe them and this marvelous bundle of contrarieties, who could discuss theology like a doctor of divinity and swear like The Orcgonian ridieulos tho con tention that the constitution docs not "run in our new possessions. But ridicule is not argument and in this case is unortby of a paper that makes any pretention to being Re publican. The Chkoni.cle docs not believe in tariff restrictions between Ihis country and its dependencies, but Us faith is founded on far other grounds than that the contitution the whole of it if at all and not merelv a part follows the flag. As a Kepuulican iiik hikmi'lk can never forget that this very question was one of the main issues that brought about the civil war and that the first Republican president of the United States was elected on a plat form that affirmed the right of congress to legislate for our territor ies as congress deemed lit, in other words that the constitution docs not "iun"inany territory till congress takes it there. Tbe Puerto Rico relief bill passed tbe senaie Saturday by a vote of 135 to 87. The vote was on party lines except that a few Democrats and Independents voted with tbe Repub licans. The bill was promptly signed bv the president and took effect immediately. It turns over to the president for the use of Puerto Rico over 12,000,000 of customs receipts collected on Puerto Ricaa goods up to January 1st last, and such amounts as may hereafter accrue until other wise provided by law. The passage of tbe bill is a generous act done to a ueedy and suffering people. It ought to convince tbe Puerto Ricant and our American anils, too, if they were susceptible of conviction that the United States has no im perialistic intentions towards ber new dependencies and no notion of ex ploiting them for ber benefit. If the constitution "runs" in Puerto Rico must not our whole revenue system "run" there loo? And if the internal revenue In Puerto Rico be "uniform" with that in the United States and it must be uniform if the constitution follows the flag will not the tax be vastly more op pressive than one of 15 per cent of the Dingley tariff on mere experts and imports when every cent of that tax collected here is returned to them without a cent of cost for col lection? The American Agriculturist esti mates that the products of the farms of the United Slates were worth 1,000,000,000 more las' year than in any of the last three years of the second Cleveland administration. This is another of the "mere coinci dences" that mark the McKfnlev ad ministration. There is not a Domocratio paper in the land that does not iuslsl that the sugar trust anil Hie tobacco trusl are responsible for the proposed tariff on Puerto Rican product. And nol a few Republicau papers thoughtless ly, as it seems to us, join in tbe general cry. Why should the trtts mentioned want a tariff ou Puerto Ricaa sugar and tobacco? When was it ever known that trust asked to have raw materials larilllcd? Tbe thins is absurd. The trusts have always stood for freo raw materials. Their interests lie in Ibis direction and in lino with the oppo sition to the Puerto Rican tariff bill Administration Republicans In both bouses of congress havo affirmed again and again without contradic tion tlist eveiy pound of sugar and tobacco that swails shipment from Puerto Rico has passed out of the bands of the producers and is owned by the two trusts mentioned. In ilie name of common sene what do Ihey want a tariff on these products for? Have these trusts become sud denly trarf formed? Have they be come so patriotic that they have forced the president, agaiusl their own interests, to place a tariff on Ike sugar and tobacco already iu their bands, when Iho president wanted to let these commodities come here free? The opposition of the beet sugar interests aud of Connctticut lobacco growers to free Irado witu the island has the merit of being in- telligble; the alleged opposition of the sugar and tobacco trusts lias not a single grain of sense or reason to sustain it. Tut Ciikomclk is affected to tears through watching the Orcgonian' j tender caresses of Joe Simon. In tho light of a wcll-remcmbcrcd past, what can it mean? Isn't there a proveib about Herod and Pontius Pilate clinking glasses to each other when they had made up their minds to crucify somebody? Or is the Orcgonian betraying Mr. Simon with a kiss that it may nail tbe little senator to the cross later on? Kalunlav'e pally.

Any one who cares to test the value of the prophecy should watch tbe returns from Wasco county tbe morning of June 5th," says tbe Oregonian. The Observer says: "Mr. Moody has succeeded in tabling all the oily schemes for leasing the public do main; and transferring it to gamblers; but no relaxation should follow on tbe part of the people. Watch the Salt Lake congress, next month, for some more funny business." Salem Democrats had the gall to ask for the use of the hall of repre-1 sentatives for Ilryan to speak in, a request without a precedent. They were politely refused. The Sumpter people call it "erup tive disease." Moro folks still cling to the eailicr nomenclature, '-Filipino itch."
