PEN NO YEIVS MSP A I'CH.
Very mmy tilings inny be said
against Governor IVnnoyer, but it
must be admitted Mint lie is de
termined in his own way lo sus
tain t lie dignity of his office. If
the office mide every incumbent
feel as big as it does his excellency,
there would be no further ques
tion as to the ..competency ol the
salary alt aching to the position.
The interchange of telegrams be
'tween Secretary Gresham and
governor, published last week,
brings to mind I he position of the
latter whan President Harrison
visited this slate in 18'Jl. He re
fused to meet I lie president at the
state line, and expressed his no
tioti of the relative position of
governor and president in the fol
lowing words: "President Harri
son represents in his official ca
pacity the official power and dig
nity of the federal government.
I, as governor of Oregon, repre
sent the state of Oregon in the
same way. We are equal. I
have no business to go to pay
homage to him. On the contrary,
when he visits Oregon he should
rather pay his respects to me as
its official executive."
So when President Cleveland
expresses the hope, through his
secretary, that the governor will
prevent violence to the Chinese
when the exclusion act takes ef
fect, he replies: -I will attend to
niv busin3ss. Let the president
attend to his.. Almost all the
papers throughout the east score
the governor in unmeasured terms
but out here where we have had a
good many years' experience with
the covernor. and would know
what to expect from any interfer-
ence wiui uie sacreu rignis oi ws
excellency, we can not take the
matter seriously to heart. The
president perhap3 did not know
that the Chinese and state rights
were near to the governor's heart;
and it may be that the president
Iidirt know that Mr. rennoyer is
not in love with him. Anyway,
it is probable that the "state de
parlment" will hereafter handle
our governor wiih soft gloves.
On the subject a Washington dis
patch says:
'There is a disposition in all
-Quarters to-dav to smile over the
brusque message Governor Pen
nover. of Oregon: dispatched to
Secretary Gresham.
"The ordinary individual in
Washington is rather inclined to
the belief that Governor Pen
noyer's language may have been
bluff, but that his idea3 in this re
spect were just about right. The
opinion here seem3 to be al
most general that some one at
this end of the line seriously
blundered in permitting any such
instructions, to hive baen sent
from the state department to the
governors of California, Oregon
and other slates.
No valid reason for the in
structions can be discerned by
those who know the situation.
The stale department, it is
thought, has no grounds for be
lieving that the taw-abiding citi
zens of these great common
wealths were going to take the
law into their own hands. The
officials of these states, had there
been an indication of any such
action, would have been abso
lutely able to cope with any di(
ficully arising in their states.
No authentic reports came to
the proper sources here that there
were likely to be any anti Chinese
riots in any of the Pacific coast
3tates. or in any other section of
the country. All rumors of im
pending trouble were brought to
the attention of the slate depart
ment officials by attaches ot the
Chinese legation, and it is pre
sumed this was done either to
create sypathy for the Chinese
who refuse to comply with the law
or to pave the way for securing
indemnity from the government,
if any Chinamen were killed."
Ix July, 1885, Mr. Thomas F.
Bayard was secret ary of state and
M. Phelps was minister to England.
Mr. Phelps wanted to be ambassa
dor, but Mr. Bayard objected, and
wrote these words: "The question
of sending and receiving ambassa
dors, under existing authorization
of the constitution and the statutes,
has on several occasions had more
oc less formal consideration, but I
cannot find that at any time the
benefits attending a higher grade
pf ceremonial treatment have been
deemed' to. out weigh the incoven
iences- whicli,.in.our simple social
democracy,, might attend the re
ception; in. tin's country of an es
traordinarialy. privileged foreign
elass." Nevertheless,! a 1893, not
withstanding "our simple social
democracy," Mr. Bayard . is to be
found representing the United
States as ambassador to England..
THE PRESIDENT RESPONSIBLE.
The execution of the Geary law
has been badly managed without
doubt, and Governor Pennoyer re
ferring to the failure of the Chi
nese to register, says "the refusal
is most undoubtedly the result of
collusion between the president
and the Chinese minister to disre
raid the laws. If the president
had insisted that, the law must be
enforced there would hare been
no lailiire to legister.
"It is a most humiliating fact
that citizens of Oregon first leard
ed ol this unholy compact from :
hieroglyphic proclamation of the
Six Companies posted on the wall
of Chinese washhouses in Astoria
Cleveland has thus become respon
sible for whatever trouble may
arise. If lie had declared his pur
pose to enforce the law there wouh
have been complete registration
'The Chinese minister has ap
parent l.y dictated the policy of (he
administration, and he was proba
bly not aware of the fact that
state governors are not presidential
sat raps. Articles of impeachment
have been preferred against a pres
ident for less offenses than Cleve
land's refusal to strictly enforce
the exclusion law."
The proclamation referred to
vas posted in Portland and Asto
ria o;i t he 3rd inst., and was trans
lated as follows:
rrom the .ix Companies to our
Chinese Brethren in Astoria: You
are lorbiuuen to register witn ine
white officials, or to have a lathing
to do with them. Our iinpena
government is watching this mat
terand protecting our people. We
have engaged Sir. lliordan, the
San Francisco lawyer, and another
in San Francisco, one in Washing
ton, the United Stales capital, .and
one in New York. May 5th four
prominent Chinese brothers in New-
York are to be arrested by the gov
eminent for not registering, and
their case will be tried by one of
the high courts in the country May
12th. Our minister has asked the
president of the United Stales not
to arrest any other Chinamen in
this country because they did not
register until this case is tried
The American president has gra
ciously said: ''Let this be so.'
You will, therefore, not register
under the heaviest penalties if
you disobey.
A great deal of fuss is being
made about the proposition to
stock the Willamette river with
black bass, one of the gamiest of
hsh known to anglers. 1 hose who
are howling against it may as well
hush up and save their wind, lor
the mischief, if mischief it is, is al
ready done. In Ihe month of No
vember last ihe United States Fish
Commission dumped into the Wil
lamette river near Salem 500 lively
young ba., which in three or four
years will begin to make their
presence known. But in truth
there is no danger for alarm, even
granted that the black bass is a
most voracious fish. The only fish
in the Willamette are chubs, suck
ers, carp and bull heads. Ihe last
two named can burrow in the mud
and take care of themselves, and
even the Chinamen will gladly -ex
change tho first two lor so tooth
some a fish as the black bass
There is no danger whatever to
the trout. The bass never go up
ihe cold mountain streams to the
spawning ground ot the trout.
opted I fie day when the bass are
as plentiful in the Willamette and
Columbia as are now the worth
less fish. Portland Chronicle.
The international monetary con
ference, which adjourned to assem
ble in Brussels on the 30th inst.
will not reassemble on that date.
The general feeling was expressed
by representatives of the leading
powers that the end of May is not
a suitable time lor recommencing
the labors of the conference and
as a result a consult .tion was
held between the president, Sec
retary Gresham and some dele
gates of the United States recent
ly. It was determined to cable
ihe announcement that the re-
issembling of the conference
would be postponed until some
time next November. Governor
McCreary, of Kentucky, who is in
ihe city and who, as Well as Sena
tor Jones, ot Nevada, will con--linue
to serve upon the com mis-:
sion, expresses much gratification
at the change of date and believes
it will increase the prospect of the
conference accomplishing some
solid results.
The United States is very ably
represented before the Paris court
of arbitration, and Mr. Carter made
a profound impression. He is now
being followed by Hon. F. 11. Cou-
dert. This country has merits of
the controversy over the seal ques
tion on its side, and the counsel
employed will not miss a single
opportunity to present this in the
most favorable light. Great Brit
ain, of course, will make a show
ing in the case; but her only inter
est in the matter is that which per
tains to Canada. This industry
should be protected, not only as a
matter of commercial justice, but
for the proper regard for the life
of these animals.
AN OPEN RIVER.
The importance of freeing the
Willamette from all obstruction
is not generally appreciated by
our citizens. With the increased
manufacturing that is being done
here more attention should be
given to the condition of thn
waterway both above and below
the city. The Telegram notes
the necessity lor improving and
says:
"The upper Willamette is not
in the condition that the section
of country through which it flows
demands. There is enough wa
ter in the river at the ordinary
gauge to permit of much traffic
upon it if the channel was only
kept clear of obstructions. It is
not so much the lack of a regula
tion depth of water as the occa
sional forming of sandbars and
the lodging of snags here and
there. Water transportation is so
much cheaper than rail, and ship
ments in bulk can be made so
much more easily in the bottom
of a boat than in a freight car,
that the former method should be
as unrestricted as possible for the
good of the Willamette val lev
farmers. Portland has a good
reason for taking especial interest
in this necessity. All (his valley
country is so tributary to it that
any improvement which facili
tates trade relations is quickly
felt both here and in the country.
If the government appropriations
are insufficient, the expense that
Ihe shipping interests might them
selves incur lo clear the channe
and keep it clear would be more
than repaid by increased traffic,
growth of the upper-river towns,
development of Ihe farming sec
tions and accompanying advant
age to merchants here!"
HARRIS I'XECUTED.
Carlyle W. Harris, the murderer
of Helen Potts, to whom he had
been secretly married, was electro
cut n ted at Sing Sing, N. Y., May 8.
Harris was a young physician and
won the love of Miss Potts when
she was 17 years of age. He in
duced her to consent to a secret
marriage. The following August,
1890, she became very ill. and her
mother discovered her secret.
Helen had been sent to her un
cle, Dr. Treverton, of Scranton,
and to him she told her pitiable
story of damnable wrong and
cowardly crime on the part ot him
who had promised to love and
safeguard her till death. Instead
of informing her husband oMTieir
daughter's true condition, Mrs.
Potts listened to Harris' sugges
tion that after Helen had again
attended school, so as to polish
the roughness in her character,
he and Helen should be openly
married. Helen recovered and
attended the school suggested by
Harris. When all danger was ap
parent' over, the seducer won
tonly went back on his word. He
promised that the engagement
should be announced at the holi
days, but when the time came he
refused. He wrote to Mrs. Potts,
as she testified, that all ques
tions of marriage must be defer
red for two years longer. The
mother, however, would" not give
up Ihe light. She- again wrote
Harris, and finally prevailed upon
him to agree that the religious
ceremony should take place Feb
ruary 8, 1891. Before the expi
ration ot this time, however, liar
lis contrived to poison his wile
and accounts of his trials have
been before the public continual
ly. There has been no sadder
story tola for years than that-of
the ill-starred Jove and sorrowful
death of Helen Neilson Potts, nor
a greater illustration ot the base
less of nfan than that of Carlyle
XV. Harris.

quantities are en route or taking
passage. Careful investigation
shows that they are not a desira

each 10,000 are worthy; the re
mainder foreign powers are glad

8th there is some hope. All im

other ports on and after that date
will be subjected to the new set of
questions asked by the new board
of inspectors. - As these may be
more stringent than a good per
cent of these steerage riff-raff can
satisfactorily answer, the steam
ship companies are crowding their
quarters with anxious rabbles, and
packing them over here like so
much" rough and-tumble freight.

A Chicago local paper declares
positively ihe World's fair will be
open on Sunday. It will be opened
without formal action or formal an
nouncement. It has been tire rule
to hae them open Sunday, and
chief Tucker, of the bureau ol ad
missions, receiving no orders to
the contrary will continue the cus
tom. He has made arrangements
accordingly, ordering all ticket
takers and guards on duty. La
ter news is to the effect that the
grounds were closed on last Sun
day. Congressman Outhwaite, of
Ohio, is the latest to verify the re
port that congress will convene in
extra session in September next.
Outhwaite does not lake any slock
in the statement that immediately
after the appointment of the house
committee a recess will be taken
until the first of December. . "It is
my opinion," said the Buckeye
statesman, "that congress will be
in continuous session, barring the
usual Christmas holidays, from
September until the following
June."
A Vienna dispatch of .May 4th
says the town of Ivowal, Poland,

population 3,500, was swept, by a

sixteen houses, including the hos

Three hundred families are home

perished in the flames.

SURROUNDED BY MYSTERY!
A Great Mistake.
A recent discovery Is that headache,
dizziness, dullness, confusion of the mind,
etc.. are due to derangement of tho nerve
centers which supply the brain with nerve
force: that indigestion, dyspepsia, neuralgia,
wind in stomach, etc., arise from the derange
ment of the nerve centers supplying these or
gans with nerve fluid or force. This Is likewise
true of many diseases of the heart and lungs.
The nerve system is like a telezraDh system.
as will do seen by the accompanying
white lines are
the nerves which
convey the nerve
foive from the
norve centers to
every part of the
