TaUT Baiooi Aoaik Since the mu nicipality of Hi, Helens and the county court cannot agree as to who bae jur isdiction over the bridge Just west of town, It might be well to have the city charter revoked. That would set tle thia much mooted question, and there would be no contention as to who should keep the bridge in repair. One thing ie very apparent, if the bridge ie not soon repaired vehicles had better And another route into St. Helena. Gentlemen, fast driving over -this bridge ia not a healthy or safe paitlme with the bridge la us present condition.

RAINIER NOTES. Smith Kleiner, unfortunately, Is carrying hie eve in sling, the result of some kind of a poisonous affectation, waueea, ne minks, irotn washing his yes with soap. Woodohopping and hauling and shingle-making ere still the occupa l one of our populace. All the wood that csu be delivered on the wharves finds ready sale. The prospects or a railroad have placed Rainier in a frenxy of excite ment, and well It ought, for if the people who are doing the talking mean business, Rainier ie destined to he one amone tha ennimernlul noinia of the Columbia river beln, inasmuch "ai uir proposed Astoria and Coble line must touch near our town. Our If. D. extends beat wishes to the tiateruity In St. Helens, and while he kuows the present was not valuable, bard limes often force one to circum stances which they otherwise would not resort to. Salmon are nlentiful and cheap, times are bard, Thanks giving near at hand, so our doctor did tue best ne could. Last week's pleasant weather came to a sudden but not unexpected climax Tuesday evening, and once more the Inhabitants of Rainier are fluttailng and shaking: their feathers. and exposing their Da robed and shriveled webs to the glorioue down pour of rain, and the veil of fog which now envelope the river and Is nd. Ex- clamaliona of Ob, how welcome art thou, soul-inspiring rain. Rainier folks, too, have heard of the spirit of reform which spread over the town of St. Helens laat Sunday morn ing, and stand aghast at the idea of a quiet city like our county metropolis being thrown into such sudden con vulsions over the exposition of tha better wishes of some of the important aldermen. The crusade for reform in Portland evidently is spreading coaat ward, but let your Rainier correspond ent suggest the advisability of stopping the trouble before it extenda north of the county courthouse, else who "nose" what might happen in the mu nicipal court of that town.

The Proposition Assnmlna; Definite Proportion. Abtobm , Nov. 10.-The result of today's meeting of the railroad subsidy committee was swelled with much Interest by the citizens aenerally, becaase of the expecta tion that the contract would be signed with one or the other of lbs parties at present In the Held. The parlies are represented by 0. Btanton, of New York, and J.T, Campbell, of Chicago. The proposition of Mr. Stanton wss that ha be given an option on tha subsidy for 80 days, In order, as be aid, to suable blm to closa a deal with Batcrn capitalists, who bad agreed to furnish the neceasary money. Mr. Camp bell's offer was even more alluring than that, for it embraced not alone a guarantee to build the road, but also an agreement to start work within 80 days and to expend SOO,000 on the road before the expiration of six months from the date of the contract. This offer was formally made to the anbsldy committee today by C. T. Karr, of Chicago. who Is one of Mr. Campbell's backere. Mr. Karr further agreed to purchase at once the stock of tbs construction company that mads the surveys for the proposed road from this city to Oobls, and for which the company expended 111,600. This amount be offered to place in the bands of the committee aa a forfeit that he woald within IS days, place in the banda of the committee, or a board of trustees, to be ap pointed by It, the sum ol $500,000. and within ths next 16 day following 1500.000 more, and ths balance necessary for the completion of the road before the first day of January , 1898. Mr. Karr gave references to show bis ability to carry out his agree ment. The committee Is now investigating ths references submitted. It Is understood that by tomorrow morning still another party will be in ths field, but whether the rumor is based npon good fonndation can not be stated. Tbs parti, a referred to are from Montana and were here about sis woekaaxo. At that tin e they looked Into the railroad proposition and atated that they would submit sn offer In tbs course of a few weeks. Astoria, Or., Nov, 30. The excitement over toe raliroa i proposition ia mu on. The one of Mr. Karr, of Chicago, has not been accented yet, ss he has not proven so far. to be able to back op the proposition Ths Btanton-Ca.upbell folks have failed to prove that they are equal to the emergency and aak 80 daya mora. The Telephone brought down this after- neon. Messrs. usmmona ana nonner ana others representing; a Montana syndicate, wbo claim to have the niom-y u. ceaaary to build the road, anil will present their oronositlon to the committee tomorrow morning. It la impossible to say what the outcome will be, but our i ltitzens are luoking to the committee expectinx that a contract will be signed before the end of the month, and that dirt will twain to fly on both enae 01 the road Insl te of 30 days. AMERICAN RAILWAY UNION. One of Ita Htrlk Leader Sentenced to be Hanged la California. Woodlabd, Nov- 16. Thecourtroom was crowded long before half-past seven this evening, the bnur lixed for pasali.g sentence mi women, tna irain-wrccaer. iu m crowd were many ladies. The court ei' eluded all lurors in the Hatch trial. When asked II lie had anything to say why sen. tence should not be passed. Mr. Strong, at torney lor Wordeo, moved to set aside the verdict, for reasons. Brat, that the court arred in instrnctin the lury In matter of law. and. second, that the verdict is con trary to tha law and evidence. Mr. Strong eontended that the court erred In not In structinc the jury that It might bring in verdict in the Hrst or second degree, or of not auiltv. He read numerous decisions on that point. On the second point Mr, Strong contended that if it be admitted that all the testimony introduced by the defense be true, anly murder in the second decree bad been proven. Mr. Cook, in reply , read from the Instructions to the grand jury showinc that the court not only instructed iu regard to the two degrees of murder, but defined both. Be contended that tha In structions exprsssly stated that the three forms of verdlot submitted to the jury was moved upon by counsel on both sides, all three of whom were present. Counsel also pioduoed the statutes of 1891 to show that reraovin a rail, whether lue ie taaen not. Is an offense punishable either by im prisonment for life, or death, as the lury may elect. Judge Armatrona also addressed the oourt in opposition to the motion, and judge Bush closed the argument in support of it. The court, after reviewing the argument and instructions, denied Mr. Strong'e mo tion that the case be dismissed on tbs around that the court had no jurisdiction that tbs government was in coutrui oi mo road and Engineer Clark was In the service of ths United Btatea at the time the train was wrecked. Mr. Cook bad cited many decisions iu opposition to Mr. Strong. Ths court said he did not desire to delay the matter by an examination of these authori ties. Proceedings had been taken uuder the advice of the attorney-general of the United Biatet, and It an error had been committed, ths supreme court can correct lc. A motion for arrest of judgment was denied. The court called upon Worrien to atand up, and sentenced him o be banged in the state orison at Fulsoin Tuesday, veoruary 13, 1896, between the hours of 10 A. M. and t P. M. Judge Grant was much affected as he pronounced the sentence, but Worden beard bis doom without betraying any avi denoe of emotion. Worden 'a attorneys have announced their Intention to appeal tha uase to the supreme ooui t. The crime for which Worden ia sentenced was committed July U, laat, during ths great atrika. A train was sent out from Sacramento, under the guard of United States soldiers, and was wrecked at a bridge crossing In Yolo county. The spikes were drawn from one.ot the ties, and the tie left in position. The engineer in charge of ths traio, Clark, and two coulters, were aiuea. Resulted la Hla Death. Orsoom Git Nov. 19. -H.

He was missed yester day, and a searching party started to hunt for him and he was found as above atated. The verdict ot tha Jury was that H. Ollland came to hie death by falling from a railroad trestle by some eause unknown. ' JAPAN'S DEMAND. It Is Not Believed China Will Ac oept the Terms. 8haohai, Nor. 17. In diplomatic cir cles bsrs the success of mediation between China and Japan is regarded as hopeless. It is rumored that Japan's minimum de mands are the surrender of the Cblneae fleet and the payment of an Indemnity of $126,000,000, Japan to occupy Fort Arthur, Wel-ilat-We! and the foremost ports until ths indemnity has been paid. There is no prospect of China assenting to such terms.

Fitxsimmons, tbs puciliat, who cauaed the death of Con Biordan by striking bim npon the point oi the chin in a sparring bout at Jacob's opera house, last night, waa arraigned In tbe po lice court today on a charge of manslaugh ter In the first degree. He waived exami nation and was Uken before County Judge Nortbcup, who Axed bis ball at 110,000, which was furnished by "Yank" Sullivan and Charles Gang. Tbe death certificate which was produced at the bearing, gives tbe cause ot Kiordan's death aa "hemor rhage within the cranial cavity, causing a compression of tbe brain." Biordan was found in perfect health. Dr. T. M. Toll man, who conducted tbe 'autopsy, says Riordan must have been struck a terrible blow on the chin, which communicated di rect with the base of the brain. Tbe de pression on tbe right side of tbe brain was very deep, and remained hall an hour after the clot was removed. Captain Glorl has engaged Corporation Counsel Charles E. Ide, of this city, aa counsel for Fitxsim mons. Shipments of Lumber. In the nine months of this year, ending with September 80, there has bean, accord- ing to tbe clearing at tbe custom house, 18.203,000 feet of lumber shipped out of tbe mouth of the Columbia river, all of which has been sent to California porta. To this ahould be added 2.303.000 feet of lum ber shipped from the Knappton mills op to April 9th. bince that date no returna have been made from Knappion, hence it la Im possible to place an exact estimate ou tbe amount of lumber sent from tbat place alone, between April 9th and October 1st. Of tbe 2,303.000 feet shipped from Knapp- ton all went to California except 733,000, which was carried to Valparaiso , S. A., on the schooner Novelty, which sailed out on February 12th. Following is a synopsis of tbe shipments: To Ban Francisco, feet of lumber.. 12,708,000 Redondo, Ban Pedro Ban Diego 1 " . . 725,000 ' " .. 320,000 To Ventura,... , 810,000 Total .18,203,000 Give the bog re Chance. In the next legislature of Washington a bill will be introduced looking to the pass age of a right-of-way law which would re duce the cost of creasing Individual claims to a reasonable amount, by asking the su. perior court to condemn a right-of-way 60 feet in width, and in assessing the damages to be awarded, the jury will take Into coa sideratlon the beneftta which may accrue to the property traversed. Such a law ought to be passed in Oregon. .In Clatsop county one Portland capitalist controls the nutlet of something like 60,000,000 feet of timber, and refuses to sell a right-of-way across bis land, thereby shutting out from market a fine body of available timber di rectly tributary to Astoria. The object of our lawa should be to stimulate and en courage enterprises, and not ban-ass and antagonise tbeui by unjust legislation. Astorian. Nearly Froaen to Death. A family consisting of man, wife and child, the" name ot whom we have not learned, says the Prineville Review, while crossing the Cascade mountains last week had a sad experience. Just beyond the lava on the McKensie road, tfceir team, having been turned loose at night, left them, coming In this direction. The next morning the man. taking his wife and child along, followed thera. The snow be ing at tbat time from 12 to 18 Inches deep, the wife gave out toward evening, and a halt was made over night. Next morning the man went on. leaving his wife and child. It was not until tbe next day that he re turned with assistance. They found tbe wife and child nearer dead than alive from hunger and eold both feet of the lady be lug froaen and the child's limbs frosen to the knee. They were brought on to this side and cared for by persons living at Slaters. Awarded Highest Honors World's Fait CREM3 MOST PERFECT MADB. A pure Grape Cresm of Tartar Powder.
