Mt&h CortoilliB (Sii)cttt. FWBAY MORNING, FEB. 9, fSS3. Entered at the Postoffice at Corvailis, regon, as second-class matter. -EOITED BY- M. S. WOODCOCK, ATTORNEY AT LAW. OFFICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COuriTY THE TARIFF BILL. It it claimed that Western Repub licans can not afford to accept the Ways and Mean8Committee's Tariff bill as was brought before the house. It is said to be even worse than the tariff commission's bill. While a lew redactions were made yet there were many advances. By it the tax on quinine is restored. Pig-iron is taxed at 6.72 per ton; armor plate t 2-J cts. per lb.; cotton lies at 14-10 cents per pound or 82 per est. Lead ore is taxed at l centf per.lb. 50 per cent more than now, and nickel at 25 cents instead of 20 cents per lb Some clarifications are changed and made more complete. It is hard to toll what effect the pas sage of such a bill would have on the business of the country. It seems to be a measure for obstruction and that is what the manufacturer lobby ists are working for. GOV. BUTLER'S ADDRESS. A small tempest has arisen in the Massachusetts Legislature, says the New York Times, over a proposition to print 10,000 extra copies of Gov. B. F. Butler's inaugural address. The usual number of extra copies ordered is 2,000, but the Democrats ay that the document is of uncom mon interest, and should be read by very voter in the State, as it shows bow Massachusetts has been mis -governed. Some of the Republicans who oppose the proposition to print the unprecedented number of 10, 000 copies of ibis Incendiary docu ment say that it is "a put-up job" to give Gov. Butler an opportunity to veto tho measure and thus gain that cheap reputation for economy for which he is undoubtedly hungry. Then there are others who declare that the address is a tissue of mis representation, and that a revnt- to enlarge its circulation would department and several ruejiibiHs of the Board of Underwriters, pave ihose gentlemen some valuable in formation in the matter.

Judge Jerry Black has disting uished himself by holding as uncon stitutional the Edmunds bill passed some time ago by congress for the regulation of mormonism on account of its interfering with an establish ment of religion. It is barely possible that the decision may be correct but we don't believe it and it will be many a long day before be will suc ceed in making any considerable portion-of the American people be lieve that such decission has the first legal or constitutional principle to support. The practice of lascivious-' s of saving corps of the department, ex cept when used to catch persons who leap from a height not exceeding twenty feet, is the 'catch canvas' which is held by a number of per sons. A person jumping into a can vas of this character from a distance of thirty feet, takes the same chan ces as if he leaped onto a plank floor, he being liable to break some bones, if not his neck. Now, my idea is that instead of using such canvas, nets, such as we use in oui business should be used by the corp, one like this, for instance," and he pointed to one stretched in the theatre, com posed of small strong ropes covered with netting inado of small cords. 'This," said he, "is very light, yet strong enough to resist a weight of eight hundred pounds thrown from a height of fifty feet. For use in the fire department I would have on each corner of the net a piece of gas pipe eight feet long, to serve as stan chions, and from each corner of the net ropes to be held by three or four men, who, pulling from opposite cor ners, would hold the stanchions in place. A person could then throw himself from a window fifty or sixtv feet above, and, by striking the net would escape without injury to limn. If he should break through the net ting the safety ropes 'would catch him aud prevent him from going through." Mr. Leo spoke at some length of his results in experiment ing with various kinds of catch blank ets and nets, but had never found any as safe as the one he and his Drother are now using. He then described a safety line by which a person may be lowered from any window of a house to the street in perfect safety. After this he gave an exhibition of the manner in which a person should be lifted by a fire man to be carried down a ladder. Mr. Leo, who weighs but 165 pounds, picked up Assistant Engineer Imbrir, whoweighs 220 pounds, in a pecu liarapnexwhich he fully explained, across his back and Ote3 up a step-ladder with him rand down again with as much ease if Jie carried a twentv-pound package. By the peculiar manner in which he grasps a person the person is unable to resist, while he himself has the free use of his left hand. He then showed the difference in the grasp used to carry a female, and explained how firemen should pick up persons who have become as phyxiated and are unable to move any limbs. The brothers promised the chief that they will give an ex hibition of methods in life-saving at one of the truck houses next week. Chief Scannell stated that he will have all the men of the truck com panies learn the grasp requisits to pick up and carry men and women. The Leo brothers are now in this city playing a short engagement at mo nine ineatre, ana it is their in clination to impart the knowledge to the Portland department, if it will be acceptable. It would be curious if Governor Butler should break up the Demo cratic National Convention in 1884 as he did in 1360. The recent action of the National Republican Committee favors dis trict representation which was so hotly fought at the last Chicago con vention and decides against the unii rule which is another obstacle to Grant-ism. The Democratic party of the Uni ted States has fasted for over twenty years with great patience and pcr severence and they survive with a ravenous appetite to be confronted at this late day with Pendleton's civil service bill to prolong the fast. It is claimed that there is less than thirty thousand pure nativs in the entire group of Sandwich Is lands, where as one hundred years ago five hundred thousand people existed there. If this is true it looks like the Spreckles influence :ire Americanizing those people. The Democratic Legislature of Tennessee declares decidedly in favor of tariff for revenue only. If the general government should adopt the Tennessee plan of paying its debts for fifty cents on the dollar she would need but little revenue or credit either. The slow indifferent manner with which the president approaches the consideration of changas in federal appointments is certainly agravating in the extreme to those anxious worthies who have so long sat on the anxious seat as to cause- a large crop of coma to appear where they do not often grow. new, murder and other kind criminality under the disguise of) Us conforming to some pretended ve figtous faith is about played out Jfe all sensible people Mr. Black's legal opinion to the contrary notwithsjtand ragi If such criminalities as trac tisfjaVby the Mormons can be sofstn d under pretense of their reliowj faith in them for a just as good tea j sons a band of thieves and highway 4 men might pretend that they w9je inspired through religious faith tof upon the highway and plunder,! raodey, ob aud murder their fellow for i 111 1 . - , juugo oiacit may nave iaitn in decision but we can't have but 1 faith in his good sense from wich uch a-deeision etninates his ttle i LIFE SAVING AT FIRES. in ine sstcmaara ot a recent date we find "the above subject corow-ri-ted upon in a manner which will rcx omraend-the subject to the careful consideration of all firemen: Usually, after a- large fire simitar to the Newhall house catastrophe, the first thing is to consider the mir takes thci .vers made by people in trying to escape, or in helping other people oat, and various suggestions are made with a view of aiding in the matter of relief at the awful mo merit. But because of the want ot proficiency in the art of life saving pr the impracticability of the schemes, people are still left to get out of burning buildings as best they can. A-few days ago the eo brothers, than whom there are no superior gymnasts in -the country, at the in4.-n.nih utfttiou of the Saa Francisco fir eommiesioaerj, all the. ouers of the CONCERNING FREE TRADE. The Philadelphia Inquirer thinks that the once cherished heresy of States' rights is rapidly losing its hold on the South. "Rabid Bonr bons," it says, "may reassert it, but the younger generation consider Jhfl doctrine as buried in the grave at Appomattox. Free trade sentiments are also on the wane. Tho strong conservatism of the Southern people causes many of them to nominally adhere to this economic sophistry, but they do so more because it was held by their fathers than because they really believe in it themselves." The Inquirer holds that the young men of the South have learned that the "extreme States' rights dem agogues brought on their section an nnsuccessful war, and they fail to see wherein the free traders are likely to benefit their interests." The same class of men that used to insist that slavery was a divine institution are now telling the new generation at the South that free trade is a nation al blessing, and the latter will soon mile as broadly at the assertion as hey do now at the repetition of the ther exploded fallacy. ' . There is a hurry with the democ racy to determine who are in favor and who are against Pendleton's civil service" reform bill. The organs claim it to be a great principle some of them agreeing that its supporters in the party are a bogus species of Democrats and that its opponents are pure patriots and that the latter kind must assend to the reins of gov ernment while the former must step down and out. The amusing thing is that the Democratic party in most all of its slate and national plat forms for years have been demand ing reform of this nature and de nouncing tho Repudlican party for alleged abuses which this bill is in tended to correct: When it did that it was endeavoring to ride in as a great reform party. The big end now throws off the mask and appears in true colors. A motion was recently made in congress that a 50 per cent adval orem tax be placed upon debate. But it was not adopted. If it had been passed and senators aud rep resentatives continued to talk as miich as heretofore the national debt oopld be paid off in a- very few nnles debate of that class - valued so low as to bring the eminent iu debt to assess it. Steamer Tacoma Wrecked Near the Mouth of Umpqua River. Empire City, Or. Feb. 2. The Bteamer Tacoma went ashore Monday night, the 29, at 9 P. M., four miles north of the Umpqua river. The captain and six men landed yes terday. The tug Sol Thomas went to her yesterday, but could not get the crew off on account of the heavy sea. She was broken amidships, both the stern and the bow be ing under water. She lays about 300 yards from the shore. The captain has sent here for tugs and life boats. Charles Wells, the passenger, who arrived here yesterday, stated to me that at 11 o' clock Monday noon Captain Kortz said that they were 5 miles off shore, and at dark no land was in sight, and that the evening was dark but not foggy: that between half-past eight and nine o'clock Capt. Kortz retired, a,j at about 9:15 the ship struck the beach in tha I'uter line of breakers. The second mate was tfS the bridge at the time the ship struck, but (iii! not either see or hear the breakers untill ehi? was in them. The ship was making between 13 and 14 miles per hour at the time she i.mck. A heavy ssa was running at the time an."? made a com plete breach o-er her. Sh commenced taking water and iii about two hours the firemen had to leave the fireroom. In a short time all the boats but one were stove. Tuesday morning Captain Kortz landed on the beach to go for assistance. He got the weeks ago, and made the fastest trip on re crod around thn horn. She sailed from New Tacoma last Saturday with 3700 tons of coal. Her cost was 250,000. Empire City, Feb. 3 The steam tug Fearless has arrived from the wreck of the Tacoma. Nine of the crew were lost, and the First Assistant Engineer Grant died after getting ashore. The ship is complete ly broken up. Nothing can be saved from the wreck. Five bodies were recovered and will be buried to-day. Engineer Grant was buried yesterday. Nothing can be seen of the wreck but the top of the cylinder at low water. Seven men were lost off the fore yard when the mast went overboard. It is claimed by a recent dispatch to the Oreijonian that the loss of life in the above wreck was much owing to the fact that the keeper of the life saving station at Cape Gregory refused and. would not permit the life boat to go to the distressed crew a dis tance of about nine miles when a volunteer crew offered and stood ready to take the boat to the wrect. It is said that if the boat had been permitted to have gone their that the lives would likely have been saved. NOVEL DREDGING APPARATUS. The Principle of Hydraulic Mining Applied to Removing Bars Invention of J. H. Huffer, of Jacksonville, or. Several months ago a paten was granted to John H. Huffer, of Jacksonville, iu this state, says the Orcjoni tn. for an apparatus for removing sand bars in rivers, cutting channels in harbors, etc. Mr. Huffer has sent to Capt Chas. F. Powell, U. S. engin eer, drawings of the apparatus, with a description of its workings. It is simply a stern wheel boat, fitted with a force pump, which is connected with a hydraulic tube. This tube is fitted firmly in the bow of the boat and reaches to the bottom of the river. Its lower or discharging end faces in a for ward direction and is bent so as to eject the water which passes through it in nearly a horizontal course, to facilitate the forcing action of the jet on the sand or mud to pro duce a current down stream. The tube may be of any suitable construction, but it is preferred to use a tube similar to that used in hydraulic mining in which provision is made for turning the tube to any desired angle, the same being hung on a swivel joint aud being provided with an extension or handle for manipulating it. It is sup ported below the swivel joint by shears pivoted to the sides of the bow and con structed to cross and form a rest for a tube iu front of the bow. This hinged or pivoted support serves to receive the back thrust caused by the reactionary pressure of the water on the tube at its bent or discharg ing end. Chains worked by windlasses are attached to tho shears for raising or lower ing them to suit different angular positions of the hydraulic tube. For removing a sand bar, the boat is brought to the upper end of said bar and the tube sufficiently lowered to cause the water that is ejected from it to forcibly re move a given depth of material from the surface of the bar, the stern wheel of the boat at the same time being put in motion to counteract the back thrust on the boa by the reactionary pressure of tho water under discharge on the hydraulic tube. During this operation, the boat is made to move down stream with a velocity equal to the current of the stream until it passes over the bar. This is continued until the required depth is reached, In the operation, the first impulse of the jet from the tube meets with considerable resistance; but as the jet continues to flow, the water alongside of it is put in motion in the same direction and flows with a velocity nearly equaljto the jet, thereby reducing the resistance and increasing the excavating action of the jet, and producing a forced current which carries the excavated mater ial far away from its place of excavation Mr. Huffer writes that he has no means with which to introduce his patent, but is anxious to have a practical test made of its efficiency. RINGS AT WASHINGTON. The Interest of Banks in Legislation Effect ing Bonded Whisky. The Sun' Washington special says: The powerful rings now gathered at Washington exceed in number and wealth all that have appeared Here tor eight years. Ihese rings expect to do their most effective work in the few remaining weeks of this congress. All the larse and many of lesser special inter ests involved in pending or in proposed changes of the tariff are represented by active and influential agents, outside and in side of congress. They have pooled thir issues and will make common cause. The navy ring has won the first engagement in the house. It remains to be seen if the senate will confirm Kobeson's work. The great ring of land-grabbers has succeeded, by the action of the judiciary committee of the house, not only in preventing any leg islation adverse to this immense interest, but also in keeping the subject from get ting before the house at all. The whisky ring will soon make its last desperate effort. The real truth in this case does not appear npon the surface. The tug Sol Thomas, at Umpqua river, to go to J .tillers and manufacturers of whisky have the wreck, but could not get to the vessel Capt. Kortz and men made every effort Tuesday afternoon to return to the ship, but the heavy sea on the beach prevented them doing so. On Wednesday the boat succeeded in getting to the ship, and when Mr. Wells left all but seventeen had been landed, and the rest were probably landed that evening. The ship is broken amidships Her bow is in eighteen and stern in twenty feet of water. She lies heading to the south east. Mr. Wells thinks that the ship lies about one-quarter of a mile from shore, and will be a total loss. Wells and Steinberger were the on'y passengers. During the two days they were on the wreck, the only food they had was a few crackers. Mr. Wells speaks in the highest praise of Captain Kortz and his- officers, in doing all that' could be done to rescue them form the wreck. The Tacoma is the first of a fleet of 3000 ton steamships bulling by the Central Pa ific railroad, to ply between San Franeiseo and Paget Sound, carrying coals from the New Carbcnada mines. She arrived in San Franeiaoo front Philadelphia about three litt.'e concern about the bill passed by the senate' extending the bonded time for two years, or' any legislation that may be sub stituted for it. Speculators and banks are the parties mos anxious and most'disturbed in mind about the action of congress. There are about 83,000,000 or 84,000.000 gallons of whisky stored. The banks have ad vanced between $50,000,000 and $60,000,000 on warehousing certificates. About 20,000. 000 of thi paper is held in Louisville, Cin cinnati, St. .Louis and Chicago, the remain der is scattered in the great eastern cities. It is undoubtedly true that the banks are seriously embarassed by the accumulation of these discounted certificates, and they can get no relief from the speculators who put them np as collateral security. The banks, therefore, are practically the owners of the whisky and their situation' is ren dered more critical because they will be compelled, for self protection, to ray the tax on this stock as it becomes due. The aggregate tax" will be about $74,030,000 . or $75,000,000, distributed over two years and ten months. It is thas seen thai the banks which have JToaned much of their capital, tempted by high rates of interest, on whisky now in bond, are the actual supplicants for legis lation, though they !o not so appear before congress, oonre ot tnem are in a bad pre dicament and are unable to carry this heavy load. They are timid about taking active part, fearing that a disclosure of their weakness might precipitate a disaster. CONDENSED TELEGRAMS.

Chicngo, Feb. 4. In an interview one of the officers of the West Side Gas company said an inventor had patented an improved method of producing gas, by which the price could be reduced to a point making it cheap er than kerosene for lightning', and cheaper than coal for heating. The method had been in practical operation, privately, under the auspices of the company for a year, and the company were about ready to tear out its cooking benches and substitute the new process. With this improvement the com pany claims to hive no fea" of the electric light.

It is claimed the gas produced is much clearer and more brilliant than un der the present process. From a special from the Cheyenne and Arapahoe agency, in the Indian territory, it is learned that eastern capitalists aud stockmen have leased from the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indian agency 500,000 acres of grass land from each of the tribes, with the privilege of fencing the same and erect ing necessary ranche buildings and im provements. The leases will have to be approvod by the secretary of the interior before going into effect, but no difficulty is anticipated, as the Indians are unanimous in the matter. It is expected that prompt action will be taken in the case, as it as sures a yearly income, fund of nearly $10 per capita for every man, woman and child on the reservation. There is but a small portion of it that yields anything toward3 the support of the Indians. The cold weather in Texas continues and is reported to be the severest experienced there for many years . The mercury in some placas in the northern part of the state drop ped to zero, and as low down as Austin and San Antonio it fell to 10 deg. above. Stock, particularly sheep, are said to be suffering greatly through the range country, and many have already died. There is also much suffering among poor people. They have been entirely unprepared for such severe weather. Miss Alice Blaine, daughter of ex-Secretary Blaine, was married Feb. 6th at her father's residence in Wasington to Brevet Col. John G.

Kendall's Spavin Cure. Hamilton, Mo., June 14th. B. J. Kendall & Co.. Gents : This is to-certify that I have used Kendall's Spavin Cure ar-Oave found it to be all it is recommended to bi JjL3 iu factmore too; I have- removed by using- tMOMe : Callous, Bone Spavins, Ring-bones, Splints, and can1 cheerfully testify and recommend it to be the best thing for any bony substance I have ever used' and I have tried many as I have made that my study for years. Respectfully yours, P. V. CRIST. Oneonta, New York, Jan. 6th. Early last summer Messrs. B. J. Kendall & Co., of Knoaburh Falls, Vt., made a contract with the pub- Jishcra oi the Pres3 for a half column advertisement for one year setting forth the merits of KendaMV spavin Cure. At the same time we secured from thsr arm a quantity of books, entitled Dr. Kendall's Treatise on the horc and his Diseases, which we are giving to advance paving subscribers to the Press as a premium . Aiout the time the advertisement first appeared in this paper Mr. P. G. Schennerhorn. who resides near Colliers had a spavined horse. He read the ad vertisement ana coinjiuaed to-test the emcacy of the remedy, although his friends laughed at his cred ulity. He bouirht a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure- and commenced nsing it on the horse in accordance witn ine directions, ana nc miormea us th s week, that it effected such a complete cure that an expert horseman, who examined the animal recently could tind no trace of the spavin or the place where it had. been located. Mr. Sehermerhorn has since secured a copy of Kendall's Treatise on the Horse and his Dis eases, which he prizes very highly and would bo loth to part with at any price, provided he could not obtain another copy. So much for advertising: reliable articles. READ PR0CF CF WONDERFUL CURES. Fremont, Ohio, Jan. 25tH. Dr. B. J. Kendall & Co., Gents : I think it my duty to nastier you my thank for benefits and profits which I have derived from your invaluable and far Earned Spavin Cure . My cousin and I had a valuable stallion, worth $4000 which had a very bad spavin and was pronounced by four eminent veterinary surgeons, beyond any cure, and that the horse was done for ever. As a last resort I advised my cousin to try a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure. It had magical effect, the third bottle cured it and the horde is as well as ever. Dr. Dick of Edinburgh, the eminent veterinary snrgcon was an uncle of mine, and I take great interest in assisting his profession Yours truly, J Am ks A. Wilson, Civil Engineer. Kendall's Spavin Cure ON HUMAN FLESH. West Enosburgh, Vt.. Feb. 15th, 1881. Dr. B. J.
