THE E83EKE CITY GUARD. KATUKDAY. ...JUNE 13, 18Sj. ; Secret or Thtirman' Succcs. ' Tho following anecdote well illus trates the wisdom of keeping silent in hoiiio case: When Allen G. Hiunnan was a younn man ho was privato Secretary to Gov. Lucai One day old Congrnsi nian McLean was chatting with some friends, and a loud mouthed follow cirao up and began to spout tho rank ost protection and high tariff ideas. To Thurman'a ostonishinent McLean ossonted to all the feflow said with an occasional "certainly," "of course," "by all means," and so on. When the loud mouth man departed", young Thurraan asked McLean why he assented to all the other man said. "You know, Mr McLean that is entirely contrary to I)omocratio doctrine, and I wonder that you did not contradict him and show his errors of statement." Mc Lean reached his hand into Hip win dow and patted Thurman on the shoul der, saying, "Young -nan, let me give you a littlo advice that, if you will re member and abido by, may bo of use to you in ofter life. Never argue with a fool." Judge Thurman says he always remembered and acted upon that advice and it was tho best he ever received. Hitherto the meanest man on earth was hold to bo tho man who was saved from drowning by a friend, who in aavinir him, toro his coat. After the water had been pumped out of him, aud his collapsed lungs were again in Hated, he instituted suit against his preserver for damages resulting from the injury .o his coat. But tho duke of Edinburg, Queen Victoria's second son, lays all over that smm what myth leal man. Tho story goeB that when lio invited his mother in law the Em ibress of Russia, to visit hisi wife, he churgod her for board, lodging and fuel, aud stood ready when she de parted, with a writ of nn exeat in his pocket to servo on her if she didn't pay at sight! Tho empress wrote a chock for the amount on a sheet ot pa tier furnished by the Duke. When she cot homo she found a cablegram requesting pay for the sheet of paper and also for the cost ot tuo cablegram The Pioneer Reunion of 1885 will take place in Oregon City on the lOlh insL The exercises will tin much as follows: Muoic by tho Oregon City Brass Band; prayer by Ho v. G. II. Atkinson, D. I).; opening address by Hon. J. T. Apperson; address by E. S. Eastham; annual olldross by Hon. Oeorgo H. Williams; lunch for citizens of every couuty: ninual election of r officers at 3J o'clock p. m.; camp fire in the evening, also craid pioneer ball at the pavilion dancing floor. Thn pres ident and secretary of the association aro respectfully, lloii. J. T. Apperson and Statu Secretary H, P. Earlmrt, Tho Liberal Government of Engknd having failed of k majority in tU House of Commoi has resigned. A ma'iority of tho Ifouse pf Commons has voted that a furtfior tax on tea is pre; rrablo to an additiopal impost on wliis- kv. and tho Torie will ooiue into pow r. What cffeclho new Government will have on t1" price of wheat remains to be scon. A No ovk defaulter who recently e8Cttpito Europe was pursued to tho bU's7"1 aock l,y a nieniber of tho firm yl'oli he had swindled, but the pursuer f as just too late. JIo had no warrant 'and could not compel tho return of the fugitive, although the latti-r kihdiy throw to him as a memento his travel- ba, containing a biblo and two prayer books. "V A dispatch from Tarkersburg, West Virginia, Juno 8th, says thn situation is becoming serious. A hundred fatui lies are on the verge of starvation, and unless aid is speedily extended by tho remainder of tho State or the outMilo world the most disastrous results may be expected. Socretaiy Limar has warned the large cattlo companies to withdraw from immense, ranges and make room for actual settlers. There will bo a groat ruJi to purchase theso lands. The Portland Democrats have nom inated Hon. Sylvester Pennoyer for mayor. The Republicans have nomi nated John Gates as his opponent. Tho election takes place next Monday. The Tension Dureau has doubled its business and reduced its clerical force since Genera) Dlack assumed charge. Democratic postmasters have Wn recently appointed for Mc.Minnville, H!ry and Gervais. General Grant is reported by his niy 1 jbysicians as Icing slightly worse. It id l'inning to dawn upon that portion of the public where political prosperity han lieretoforo dnita-ued it to that fact, that the Democratic Prev ident is rather a ftupcrior tiort of a man. It in now admitted in Wiuilmig on thut ho is a Lig;r man, oflioiu!ly, than any of his Cabinet officers, and every day brings forth fnh proof of on ability far superior to that with which the public generally has mun dinposr-d to credit hint. Hi Cabinet ailvmers aro reported to bo continually surpriwed at new evidences cf hiH bn-adth of mind, wide information, Htrong granp of every subject, calling for executive consideration, and rnmarkable execu tive force. He has already hIiowii an amount of intellectual ability that easi ly places linn at the head of the Ad ministration in fact, as well as in name, and that gives the lie to the Republi can organs in this roped as eniphat' cally as his administration thus far Htamps as false to their other assertion, tlat ho would never do anything toward reforming the civil service. Ex. Gen. Cuvier Grover of tho United States Army died suddenly at Atlan tic City hist Saturday. In Si-ntembcr, 1850, lie was coiriniisioiied Second Lieutenant of the Fourth Artillery. Hewan promoted to'be First Limiten ant in March, 1854, and Captain in Septurnber, 185$. Ho was in the j t'ti. w...i;i;.. :.. io-. u ...i UhH'l UIVIUII 111 iuifl"i: UIIU Ull frontier duty at Fort Union, N. JI., at the breaking out of the civil war.' He JistinguiNhed himself in that war as a uravo ana eiiicient solilier, and was-p eight times wounded. He was a broth- jw or of Gov. Grover of this State, and a,'J brother-in-law of ex-Senator Kolly. , Col. Ochiltree came into the HousP ...... - .P the morning kwt I no close ot ono 1 1 the races all "broke up." His hairF was standing on end, his dres was dis ordered, a general air of seediuess per vaded his being in short, he seemed completely demoralized- What's the matter, Tom?" exclaimed a dozen sym pathizing friends. "Matter!" blurted out the great Texan, who imagined everybody must have heard of his mis fort u lib. "Matter! Why I have lost $10,01)0 twieo the pay of a mem ber of this House on tho races yester day. Matter! Great Scott!" ."It's too bnd, Tom, but then " VYns, and the wprstof it is, added Colonel Ochil tree, savagely, "$10 of it was in cash," Tho result of the municipal election in Norfolk, Va., recently, gives good hope that Mr. Vilas clean sweep in the Old Dominion will put an effectual quietus on the Mahouu marauders. Last year tho city went llepublicau by 402 majority, but last week it went Democratic by a majority of 33.1. Aw they do say that a lot of negroes voted wan thn Democrats. It is predicted "that in 11)85 theie will bo 192,00O,(i00 persons of the Af rican race inhabiting the United States, while thu white population of this country will only number 9(5,000, 000. Hum estimate is based on the censusfc of 1870 and 1880, the first of which is in dispute in regard to accuia y. Other statioians, basin;? their cal culations on the censuses taken, exoent thft rf 1870, aver that the ratio . of the xdorod population is decreasing, Thnbold itriton mostly drinks beer, wlulo the Scot and tho Irishman prefer whisky by a big majority, lfenci the proposed legislation of the hnglisfi t iovcrnment, was plainly in the interest of English tipplers, na beer had no extra tax laid upon it in the icIieuiH ot raising revenue.
