Outrageous Chi,hois. Coos coun
ty, Oregon, certainly ia entitled to the
Jironiium for outrageous charges, and
I is no won dor aha is bead over heels
in debt. It is a splendid section to
steer olear of. A destitute resident of
this county by the name of John
llnuckenheiiner, whose home is at
Wallace, fall sick at Marshneld last
fall and was sent to the MoCormack
hospital, which bas a contract to keep
the ooiintv Door at robber's Drinus.
For 34 day's keeping, Including med-
ioine, nursing, etc., Lane county is
presented with a bill for 1110.60, or
S3 25 per day. This was no Mire-
ordinary case, as the official testify
that this is the price charged the
county generally. In Lane county,
Dr. Russell does this same identical
work for $3 per week and is glad to
have the job. At Coos county charges,
La no county would pay 45 per Jay,
which would soon bankrupt her. The
populists were eleoted in that county
to reform matters. If they have made
a stsrt in that direction, it must have
been simply terrible when they came
Into power.
Curious PaopLi-Perbaps never in
the history of the county has there
been so many people in attendance at
a session of the circuit court as during
the present weok. The number of im
portant cases on the docket bas not
only brought to the county seat those
directly interested but quite as many
who are always onrious to watch the
proceedings and details inoldent upon
trial of so great a variety of cases.
There are In attendance on court a
large number of witnesses and with
them comes many friends. Then the
friends of those accused of crime are
here to watch the outoome of trial and
listen to the array of argument on
either side by counsel. The court
room was packed to its full capacity
all day Tuesday and Wednesday,
while many walked the streets
awaiting an opportunity to find a
vacant seat inside. This was especially
true during the trial of the Severn
Jsenhart case which was on Wednes
day, and so boisterous became the
crowd at times that Judge McBride
was obliged to caution them to main
tain order.. The oase is not one of a
highly moral oharaoter, and as auoh
cases always do, attracted an unusually
large attendance. The legal battles
between counsel has a faoinating effeot
upon mankind whioh ii irresistable
and most always enjoyed. Men are
not the only ones who enjoy court
room scenes. During the progress of
this trial there were a number of
women who listened patiently to the
long drawn-out cross examination of
the many witnesses, and afterward
take part in diacu sing the weight the
evidence should have in the case. The
same is true In all Important cases.
Unlike the Durrant oase, however,
there was a lack of bouquets or smiles
for the defendant. The Bovern-Iaen
hart adultery case was begun In the
circuit court Wednesday and at press
hour yesterday afternoon there were
many witnesses who bad not yet been
called to the stand,

CONGRESSMAN ELLIS HERE
The Representative Shaking
Hands with Friends.
He Talked of River and Harbor Im
provements, of Prospective
Tariff Revision.
Congressman Ellis, of tha First district,
was In Bt. Helens during this weak looking
atter the wants of the people of this section
of the state. Mr. Ellis bas the interest of
the whole state at heart, and at he intends
soon to leave for Washington Oity to take
up the duties of his office, he called upon
nis iriands here to get an Idea as to the ur
gent requirements of tbs locality.
While In tbs elty Mr. Ellis was seen by a
Mist representative, who learned from the
gentleman many things of Importance and
Interest to the people of tills county.
What la tha prospect for the improve
ment or tha Clatskanie river, was asked.
Well," said the congressman, "I and
my colleagues did all we possibly could
Hist of securing an appropriation for the
survey of the river, and the work was done
soma time ago and a report made which aet
forth the estimated cost of Improvement
betides there was much minor information
to be obtained which all takes time."
Do you think the work will be resumed
soon, waa asked.
"Yes," replied Mr. Ellis, "I am quite sure
that so soon as congress is convoued we
will be able to get the Clatskanie river im
provement matter before the committee on
river and harbor appropriation, and I am
quit sure there will be no great difficulty
experienced In securing sufficient means to
do the work."
Where do yon Intend going from here?
"Senator Mitchell and I are booked for a
trip through the eastern part of the state.
where we will meet the people and ascer
tain what we can do for them in particular.
What do you expect to accomplish in
congress this session, or what is the pros
peat for a revision of tariff laws, waa asked
the congressman.
"Well, what we would like to accomplish
is a great dial, but bow much we can do is
not yet known. You aee If the house of
representative had It In their power to re
vile the tariff schedules it would be bat
short time doing it, but yon know the sen-
ate la badly mlxod, there not being a repub
lican majqrlty, so what the house might
accomplish in this line would be only un
done in the senate."
Do you have hope of making any changes
stall In the present tariff schedule?
"Yes," replied Mr. Ellis, "we may be able
to bring facts enough to bear upon the pres
ident and the senate to secure better pro
tective rates on a few articles, lumber in-
eluded, but to expect to secure very much
of a change would be rank folly."

News is very scarce here this week,
notwithstanding the fact that circuit
oourt is in session. Even Johnny
Cooper's dog, Colonel, hasn't fought a
single battle thus far, and the ex
changes fail to furnish matter to fill
up with. The only thing left then for
the poor reporter is to resort to bis
wild fancy. This is a bad slate of af
fairs, but from the appearanoe of our
contemporaries we take it the com
plaint is universal.
Mrs. S. A. Kelt, of Pomona, Cel., bad
the bad luck to sprain her ankle. "I
tried several liniments," she says, "but
was not cured until I used Chamber
lain's Pain Balm. That remedy cured
me, and I take pleasure in recom
mending it and testifying to ita effi
caoy." This medicine is also of great
value for rheumatism, lame back, pains
in the chest, pleurisy and all deep
seated and muscular pains. For sale

The steamer Aslorian was launohed
from the ways Saturday, at Astoria,
and is now in excellent condition in
side and out, says the Astorian. New
paint gives her a fine appearance, and
CapUiu Parker says he will spare no
pains to make her one of the popular
boats of the river. A largo amount of
drift was cleaned on her bottom, and
a large piece of 2x4, which was found
attached to her bottom, probably by
workmen when she was last on the
gridiron, was removed. The mud and
dirt in the hold was removed, and now
there is no reason why the Aitorian
should not make speed. This steamer
will probably be plaoed on the Port
land-Astoria route in a short time.
Mrs. E. E. Davjg.of San Miguel.Cal.,
savs : "I am trvinz in a measure to
repay the manufacturers of Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy for the great
good their remedy has done me. For
yean I was a oonstant sufferer from
weak lungs and bronchial asthma. My
rest at niirht was disturbed by a hack
ing cough so that I felt miserable the
greater part of the time. Many reme
dies recommended by friends were
tried, none of which proved suitable
to my case. I did not experience any
beneficial results until I began taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. After
two bottles of the large sue had been
used I am pleased to state, my health
is better than it has been for yeurs
The soreness has left my lungs and
chest and I can breathe easily. It bas
done me so much good that I want all
who are suffering from lung troubles
as I was, to give it a trial. For sale by
