VOL. XXII. COR ALUS, OREGON, NOVEMBER 13, 1885. NO. 46. TELEGRAPHIC D!FATCKEf , Oi tie past week uonaensad. GENERAL It is stated tbaa the president's message will recommend the admission, of Dakota as a. state. Disastrous cyclones are reported from Al abama aud Texas. Many people were killed and injured. One hundred "boomers" and forty wa gons, cr.ptured by Col. Sumner iu Uklahom.i have arrived at Fort Reno. California mail for For land will hereafter go by way of Oden and Umatilla, as stag ing between Calilornia and Oregon is very lad. G. N. Stripe, a Sprague, V. T, hotel man was cut in two by a train near that town, on Friday night. He was a member f the A. O. J. W. Reports from Virginia say that Mahone is in the depths of gloom. He is socially aad politically rained, and has sen his thodgln of leaving Virginia. The feeling agaiim. him in the state is so great that he will bi socially ostracised. The commissioner of the general laud of fice has refused to approve a list o lands se lected by the Northern Pacific railroad com pany, including about 5S,000 acres in Wash ington territory embraced within the for leited grant of the Oregon Central railru.i company. Democratic frau U in the recent election at Cincinnati are so glaring that the vote i a number of precincts will eitner be thrown out or the fraud ulent returns corrected. Al ready enough iliscrco.ineie.-i have beeu cor rected to give the county to the republicans aud materially increase their majority iu the legislature. The jinpression among those who have talked with the president, is that he will recommend in his message the repeal of the law which authorizes the coinage of the present standard dollar, and the enactment Of a law- which will provide for the coinage of a silver dollar to be increased in weight so as to be ttie present equivalent of gold. Judge li iifman of San Francisco, has de cided thai iu the future if Chinese appli cants to hunt fail to prove that their certili c itis are genuine, the United States dis trict attorney can be giveu possession of such docu i tents as evidence of fraud, and institute proceeding to prosecute the hold er. It is b.dieved that this decision will stop the effort of the Chinese to land with out proper certificate. Indians s-rcked and burned the Missouri and Florid i Cattle company's ranch near Demiug, N. M aud shot aud killed Mrs. Shy and her 11-year old son. The murder ed persons were wife aud sou of Johu T. S iy, priu' ipal owner of the Missouri and Florida Cattle company's ranch. After committing the deed the Indians headed uthward toward Polonaise lakes. Immed iately on receipt of the news, military and militia started in pursuit. A cyclone passed through Pittslield, 111., in a northwesterly direction, on the 6th, un roofing houses and barn s, and doing consid erable other damages to property, but tak ing no lives so far as has been learned. The will of the late Henry YV. Shaw, (Josh Billings,) has been fil d in the surro gate's office. It bequeathes .?1000 each to his t o daughters and his sons-iu-law, and divides his books, lectures, etc., between his wife and two aughters. He leaves his wife, as long as she remains his widow, all the interest arising out of his investment-, and at her death, it is to be divided be tween his two daughters. The market, val ue of the estate is 93,000. On the recommendation of Dr. Kimball, director of the mint, Secretary Manning has authorized the suspension of a.l opera tions at the mint at Carson. Nevada. Since the su-pension of the coinage of standard silver dollars last Jun, this mint has been conducted as an assay office. Deposits, liowever, have been insignificant during the last few months. The reason assigned by Director Kimball for the present action, is that the yield of the mining industry once centering at Carson, is now practical y re duced to nothing, so that whatever reason there once was for the existence of the Car son mint, is no longer in force. A Little Rock special to the Times-Democrat says: Advices from Indian Territory say that the "boomer" have secured a foot hold in Oklahoma and that it would take Uuited States troops some time to clear the country ot them, as the intruders are wide ly scattered. There are numbers of armed men and the possibility of a tight between "boomers" aud troops is by no means re mote. The statement is made that the leaders desire to bring about a conflict on the eve of the assemblies of congress, so that congressional action may be had ami Oklahoma legally opened to Settlement. In dians are reported as becoming restless un der the situation, though they anticipate no outbreak. The archbishops and bishops of Catholic churches of the United (States, t the close of the third plenary council held at Balti more in December 18.vi, issued a pastoral letter to the clergy and laity iu their charges, j The pastoral letter, as usual, contained a summary of decrees or rules passed by the council, and when published, one paragraph attracted considerable attention. It read as follows: "There is one way of profaning the Lord's day which is so prolific of evil re sults that we eon-ider it our duty to utter against it our special condemnation. This is the practice of selling beer or other li quors on Suiiday, or of frequenting places Wiiere liquor is sold. This practice tends more than my other to turn the day of the Lord into dissipation and make it an occa sion for breeding intemperance. While we hope that HSiu day laws on this point wil. not be relaxed, but even more rigidly en forced, we implore all Catholics, for the love of God and of the country, never to take part in such traffic, nor to countenance or to patronize it, aud we nut only direct the at tention of ail pastors to the expression of tins abuse, but we also call upon them to in duce allot' their Hocks that may be engaged in the sale of liquor to abandon as soon as they can the dangerous traffic, and to ;m orace a more becoming way of making a living."

Mr. Editor: Can yon explain to the t; x payers of this comity now it comes that un icr a law passed by the legislature some four years ago aud known a the .lortg .g Tax law that Multnomah and other c muties assess said mortgages at 50 cents on the dol 1 ir, while Benton county takes the full 100. Look at this as you p. ease, there is great in justice somewhere, and it hardly seems fair that the holders of mortgages in this eoimtj should be treated with greater harshness th iu stimiar hoiders iu a county iu which Portland is situated. Nor is this tne only law in the State which meets witU diverse treatment. TaR tae roail tax upon fauns. If the owner n a farm lives off the land, where he resides the road tax will oe expended. This re ceives far different treatment iu other coun tries, aud so it should, for iu equity tlie tax snouid go to toe district iu which the land is situated. This is oue of the great points of the Mortgage tax law, that where the mortgage is laid, there the tax must be paid. lies peet. ally, C rvallis Or., Nov. 12, '83. Iaxpayer. To the public.
