Bntered at the Post-office at Hillsboro, uregon as second clnsr mail matter. OBSTACLES! IN THE WAY. The gold standard papers are now telling the public that good times must not be expected as a re suit of the present contemplated tanff bill which is now before con press. These editors and their in structors are well aware of the shameless barefaced deception last fall practiced upon that clars of peo ple which requires some one else to do its thinking. These falsifiers forget that last October they prom ised all sorts of prosperity should McKinley be elected and they now are "wise in their generation" by attempting to lock the stable doors before the stock is missing. They may succeed in deceiving the peo ple again and they may not. Many votes were cast for McKinley be cause of promises from reputable journals and. statesmen high in theircountry's counsels. The pros penty was to come at once they said, prior to November. Prosper ity will be slow in coming they now say. Be this as it may if prosperity does come, they will re 'main in power. But the present tone of our metropolitan gold stand ard press is such that it betrays the existence of a doubt more, the knowledge that good times can not come. America, on the same financial highway, must sink to European conditions. To revert to the tariff proposition too much tariff will mean but little revenue and too little tariff will mean pree nt conditions. , The McKinley ad ministration is surrounded by con dition; very unsatisfactory and it will indeed require great statesman ship and diplomacy to overcome the obstacles which stand in the way of pledged prosperity. REGENERATE GREECE. The "Concert of 'Bondholders" has no terror for the plucky ruler of Greece. The occupation of the Cretan harbor bv the allied powers is a miserable failure and the fight for liberty will go on unless inde prudence to Crete is granted. To what degradation has our European neighbors fallen? To think that little Greece, fallen from her' high estate oY ancient times, should still lower fall, and breed condition which might deprive the Roths child of his pound of flesh 1 While the great powers an patriotically . supporting the golden power be ' hind their thrones, Greece rascally takes advantage of her position and tells Crete that her people shall be free from Turkish rule even if Tur key's power to pay her national debt shall be impaired. Greece's , ruler will go down to history as a tyrant aye his name will go down to oblivion along with the rebel George Washington, the outcast LaFayetteand the modern Lincoln. 8uch wholesale flouting of the moneyed kings jn this enlightened . age is certainly a sign of degenera tion. But let us have a plethora of such degeneracy. LONDON TIMES WEEPS. The London. Times thinks our semite, by its action on the rejec tion of the arbitration treaty, has struck a blow at the confidence of the American people. The Times errs and badly errs. The Times should know that Americans see more iu diplomacy than a mere . businesb agency. The senate has shown a confidence in republican institutions has shown that its confidence in the American people is supreme. The United States cao do her own arbitration and twice has she settled her differences with . England itself, with credit to American judgment. At the time our national liberty was sought ov er one hundred years ago, but one nation in Europe favored our inde pendence and that one God save tb marlc waa England's bitterest enamjr and had a motive in its ac tion. Let judgment and states- - eunchip be our Arbitration and . - when tbeae fail, adopt the only ex- .-fjiit left foroil'le assertion of what we deem our rights. REPUBLICANS, 66 AND SILVER MEN 34. Let it not be forgotten and no reasonable pen-on desires it shall that there was a large majority of republicans in our last legislative fiasco. Let it be remembered that the seiiiilnrial tight divided tl.eit - . rarces ana rauur than bive theoth er faction a temporary or perma nent advantage, each held out to the bitter end. Let it be known 1 J ....... once arm ioraii that the state watt in the hands of the republican pol itioians who were booming or op posing certain people for office and doing nothing else. Who, then, held up the legislature? Why did not those of identical party faith get together on organization and effect legislation? Because that would have meant the downfall of one of the other factions in ojen fight. It was simply a fight be tween Simouites and .Mitciieliites and for this the state of Oregon had an election in 1896! The Oregonian is a great paper but its positions are sometimes very ridiculous. It constantly cranks about the new journalism, abuses sensationalism and the like, preaches about the immoral ten dencies in the germ of such literary productions and then turns to the windward, publishes a detailed ac count of tbe Corbett-Fitzsiumions' fight and in tho same issue publish es an advertisement for Dr. s quack remedies which is too vulgar to enter any hom or public li brary. For consistency, which is three-quarters of an inch thinner than a case knife blade, commend us to the "staid" old Oregonian. HISTORY BLEMISHED. The Pacific Journal is about as badly off on Oregon history as it is on the money question. This is the way it izes up the situation: Gov. Lord's annointment of, H W. Corbett as U. S. Senate, it taking tbe view that tbe legislature of Oregon had a chance to elect and failed to do so. However since then Senator Dolph has died which leaves a vacancy that Gov. Lord can fill, the legislature not being n session, so that it is very probable mat Mr. Corbett will yet the seat after all. GRAND JURY REPORT. To the Honorable T. A. McBridc'. Judge of the above named Court: We, the undersigned erand iurv ror tno M'CMotff ,term of said court. make this our final report, and re spectfully represent that we have carefully investigated all charges oi crimes presented to us and re turned into court 14 true bills. Sev eral other cases have been brought before us, but we find the evidence insufficient to justify the returning oi mi inaicimeui into this court. We have visited the county Door house and we find it well kept and everything in good order except the pump, which was out of repair We recommen-J, that a good force- pump be kept in good working or der at all times. mr. Jii. Ueichman was em ployed to examine the School Sup erintendent's hooks, ami ins report is herewith submitted. We cannot too strongly uree that me method of keeping the books of the School Superintendent, as recommenned bv Mr. Deielnnan.be enforced. We have examined the books of the several different officers of the court house, and found the books neat and properly kept. We have visited the county iail and have found it kept in as good a condition as its overcrowded condi tion would permit; but we consider its accommodations are entirely in adequate for the needs of the coun ty, and we recommend that the county provide better jail accom modations. We believe that if bet ter accommodations are not provid ed, the county will be liable for damages. We believe that owing to the low prices of material and labor, a better timo could not be had for the construction of a new jail building. In the crowded condition of tho jail, the inmates are liable to sick ness, and the countv probably for damages. It would also be much more economical to keep prisoners in our own county, than to send them to Portland for keeping. At this time the jail is full, and the officers find it necessary to quarter prisoners in the court-house, which is destitute of such accommodations as are required; we think the mat ter urgent and necessary, and trust that the county officers who have the authority, will attend to the matter at once.

OBJECTS TO PETTY CASES. Thinks They are Brought for the Fees ill Them. ; Every county newspaper and every taxpayer under whose observation it comes should denounce and protest against these frequent petty suite cases which seem to be brought solely for the ices involved. The majority of these cases are brought by irresponsible part ies who have nothing at stake and who pay no taxes to support our county ad ministration. In some instances the complaints are sworn to by the grossest violators of the law, in having run ''gal Ion saloons," where liquor is sold with out liiense, and where young hoys aud sometimes good men are enticed and doped, losing their money. -, Only last week there was a cas brought from Sherwood to the county seat, not withstanding Sherwood has a justice and a city recorder, and beside, the' erand jury was lu session at the time and could have looked into the .affair The com plaint ullevreil violation of the license law, waa signed by H. L Kocher and tneinturinatiott was against John Woida. The defendant was brought before the justice, several witnesses were examined, aiid after the facts were ascertained, was dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The taxpayers . will, of course, foot the bills. It seems to me that were justices were cautious and would tax the costs to the complaining witnesses., where there is not sumcient evidence to convict, there would be a vast reduction in the number ol these cases and a consequent lighten ing of the burdens of our taxpayers. We are willing that each man, woman and child shall have the fullest measure of legal protection, let it coat what it may, but the present situation is such that malicious prosecution can thrive to the detriment of no one but those who pay the taxes. We protest against this whole sale, concienceless wasting of public money. .1 . Vox Porvtt. Middleton, March 23, 1897. Made a " rum-Over."
