'WAY DOWN IN CAROLINA
LAUGHABLE STORY OF INCORRIG
IBLE WITNESS HARRIS.
Incident of Conrt Procedure ln Days
"Befp the Wal," When Captain
Rice, "He Gin n Treat."
This Is a very old story, printed often ln
the newspapers 60 to CO years ago. It Is
a story that muot not die, and as It is a
long time since tho public has been called
on to laugh over lte exquisite ridiculous
ness. The Oregonlan gives It a start again.
It is to be doubted whether It has ever
been printed In an Oregon paper before;
certainly the writer never has seen It ln
one. The scene, as remembered. Is in
one of the Carolina-., ln a -court of Justice.
A beardless disciple of Themis rises and
thus addresses the court:
"May it please your womhlp, and you,
gentlemen of the Jury, since It has been
my fortune (good or bad, I will not say)
to exercise myself ln legal disquisition. It
has never befallen me -to be obliged to
prosecute so dlrefully marked an .assault.
A more willful, violent and dangerous bat
tery, and finally a more diabolical breach
,f "'. '?,T "aPPe?"- ? a i
civilized country, and I dare say It seldom '
has been your duty to pass upon one so
shocking to benevolent feelings, as this
which .took place over at Captain Rice's
ln this county, but you will hear from the
witnteses.
The wltnceses being sworn, two or three
were examined and deposed. One said
that he heard the noise, but did not sec
the fight: another that he saw the row,
but did not know who struck first, ani?
another that he was very drunk, and
couldn't say much about the scrimmage.
"Mr. Harris" la Called.
Lawyer Chopc I am oorry, gentlemen,
to have occupied your time with the stu
pidity of 'the witnesses examined. It
arises, gentlemen, altogether from a mis
apprehension on my part. Had I known
as I do that I had a witness who was ac
quainted with all the circumstances of the
case, and who waa able to make himself
clearly understood to the court and Jury, I
should not have trespassed so long on
your patience. Comeorward, Mr. Har
ris, and be sworn.
So forward comes the witness, a fat,
chuffy old man, a "leetle" corked, and
takes his oath with an air.
Chops Harris, we wish you to tell about
tho riot that happened the other day at
Captain Rice's, and as a great deal of
time has already been wasted ln circum
locution, we wish you to be compenduous,
at the same time as explicit, as possible.

How About Thlal
PORTLAND. Or April 20. (To the Edi
tor.) During the 10 or more years follow
ing Cleveland's first election, the saloon
flourished to an extent almost equal to tha
present time, with but little opposition
from temperance organizations, the Pro
hibition party and the I. O. G. T. going
to sleep, perhaps having accomplished
lwf,,1P,Urp.0,. iw fB Mr. Cleveland's
?.le?tlon- -o that the Republicans have
had success and begun to bring back
some semblance of prosperity, the various
temperance organizations have been re
vived and the morally disposed people ara
being agitated by. a lot of articles from
pens of abstinence (not temperance) men
to 'Vote as you pray,'.' et cetera, as was
tho battle cry for Mr. St. John.
I want to ask why this Is done only
during Republican dm!nIstratlon? Ts It
because Democratic administration Is mora
ravoraDle to temperance reform, or is It
a ruse to assist that party back Into
power? R. E. F.
a
INCREDIBLE BUT TRUE.
What? Tho 70-hour daily solid testlbuled
train service from Portland to Chicago via
the -Union Pacific Railroad. Only four days
to New York, Philadelphia. Boston and
other Eastern points. First train leaves
