The church, is much reviyed and strengthened ; they are like a hive of "busy bees' and their motto seems to be ,"No drones in this hire." Harder and Suicide. From legal documents received by County Clerk Benson, it appears that a murder was committed on Smith river last week, and the murderer afterwards committed suicide. The leal documents are the report of the coroner's jury and a cost bill. From the evidence taken by the acting coroner, J. B. Hutchins, it ap pears that John Niberg killed "Tarfoot' Johnson Mon.'ay or Tuesday of last week, and a few days afterwards killed himself. Niberg was of a peculiar dis position, and several persons testified to having seen him a few days previous to his death and that he acted in a p col lar manner. Ren. McKinney went .to Niberz's house last Friday and knocked for admittance several times. He heard Niberg moving about the house, and presently a gun wa3 discharged. Mc Kinney did not stop to make any further examination, but at once gave the alarm. Afterwards Kobt. Beckner, special con stable, and Henry Winters broke into Niberg's bouse and found him lying on the bed dead. The report of the coron er's jury, consisting of J. T. Henderson, Wm. Yost, S.A. Perkins, J.T. Craig, and C. Branham, is as follows: We find that John Niberz came to bis death by a gun shot wound caused by his own hands, and by the evidence given beleive him to be guilty of the murder ot Taricot Johnson. Twenty dollars in money, four keys and a pocket knife were found on Niberg's body. Whether crno Johnson's body has been found is not elated. A Laundry For Roseburg. B. T. Bryan and E. L. Fisher of Eugene have leased the Fink building on Main street, opposite the Van Houteu, and will engage in the laundry business They expect to be ready for buainess in about ten days, and guarantee their work to be first class. They come high ly recommended, as the following from th e Eugene papers show. The register says of them: "Messrs. E. L. Fisher and B. T. Bryan went to Roseburg yesterday, and will start a laundry in that city. Both gentlemen have been employed in the Palace Laundry in this cily, the form er ever since its start, and they understand the business thoroughly. They have a verr commendablo ambition to launch out in business on their own responsi bility, and that is why they have mado this move. They are both obliging and courteous in all their dealings, and will no doubt meet with success in their underfakfng. No man with whom they lure had business in thia city would hesitate to giro tbem unqualified recom mendation to the people of Roseburg. Wo wish them euccess." And the Guard pays tliem the following compliment : "B.T. Bryan and E. L. Fisher, both employes of tho Palace laundry, will soon start in the same business for them selves at Roseburg. They are bright, honest and energetic young business men and understand their bussiness thoroughly, and we can assure the people of Roseburg that they will hare a laun dry conducle 1 on a business-like basis and one from which none but tho best work: will be turned out."

"The 'sham battlo just concluded at Fort Klamath,' an account of which is making the rounds of tbo state papers, occurred last Fourth of July," says tho Oregonian.

"Packed to suffo cation" but faintly expresses tho density of tho crowd that thronged the galleries and lobbies of tho House on the occasion of the first joint ballot for United States Senator. Tho ballot in separate houses. Tuesday, showed Mr. Dolph to have 29 in tho Houes and 19 in the Senate, or three more than enough to elect, as Rep resentative Scott was still absent and too ill to bo brought to tho house. At :oo tho senators crowed in as bast they could ; and were, with great difficulty, given seats in front Roll-call showed eighty-nine members of the leg' isiauve assembly present. Alter some preliminaries tho fateful roll-call, upon which hung, as by a slender hair of un known strength, the political future of Hon. J. N. Dolph, was procecdo I with Not haying received a majority of tho lower house on Tuesdav, tho selection was thrown into the joini assembly. Senator Alley opened the ball by say in; ne was the nurd oldest tree coinage silycr man in the state and would put himself on record for the choice of Lane county Hon. Binger Hermann, a man who had never spent a dollar to promote iiis political interests in an improper manner. Baker and Barkley warmly supported Judgo F. A. Moore amid great applause. Brpwnell's vote for Dolph was hissed. President Simon rapped them down, but the votes continued to be cheered and hissed, alternately. Jeffreys made an eloquent plea Jor Judge Hare, a pioneer, who was rich in ecu age, and amilliocare in brains. He got several rounds of applause. Johnson of Linn made a short speech no nau voted lor uoipu as toe caucus nominee in the senate and had fulfilled every moral obligation to that caucus in ing. He voted for Hermann amid ;reat applause. Keyt next declared that he had heard from his constituents in no uncertain sound. He would do his duty by the people and he voted for Geo. H. Williams. eeuioreue ucicnueu lue caucus nomi nee and declared no one was authorized to present the name ot Mr. Hermann, of Douglas county, to this convention Douglas county wa3 solid for Dolph and for his financial views. Senators Johnson, Alley ami McCluDg and Representative Keyt took the only upright stand when they stated that they preferred to vote the wishes of their con- tituents to those of the caucus. Smith of Josephine defended tho can cus and voted for Dolph. Tho roll proceeded with great excite ment. Yates mado a grand speech for the people. ucoies aroso wnen ttie speaker was called, and made a strong speech for the caucus nominee.

The result was announced amid great silenco. A motion to adjourn resulted ayes 4S, noes 41. Lester's speech was to the effect that his first choice was Fulton. His next choice was Dolph, but it was asserted and not denied that unfair means had been used. Forco and corruption were employed. He voted for Moore. senator jicuiung voted lor Uolpli in tho senate, but now in a brief but elo qucnt sjiecch cast his ballot'.for Hermann, as Senator Dolph did not represent a ma jority of the voters of Lane county. He met with great applause. McGinn of Fortland next spoke. Ho was met with an unusual volley of his-e3 but President Simon rapped them down, and he proceeded to dress down tho cau cus bolters. No man could bo absolyfid from the orders of that caucus without the consent of that caucus. Why did these men go into caucus if they did not intend to stand by it? Ho closed in an eloquent burfct ol republican applause Barkley of Marion replied that tho people alono could absolvo republicans from their sins no caucus could do it. II i3 speech was broken into by Senator Denny who was sustained by tho chair. Itincnrson mado ono of his eloquent appeals for Judgo Moore, ilia dovotion to tho pcoplo of his county, who were solidly against Polph's return, was greater than his dcyolion to nil tho caucuses of all parties on earth. Ho vot ed for Mooro. Representative Baker of Lane county had tho honor of placing Judge Mooro in nomination for United States senator, and tho Oregonian sayB of him : 'Baker sprung tbo sensation ot the day. As soon as ho arose and addressed tho chair everybody knew he was to name the choice of tho republican bolters.- and all eveB were turned towards him. Ho mado a speech which Ehowed considerable force, and boro testimony to tho strencth of feeling which had ani mated him and his associates. Speak ing of his nominee, ho said he would un doubtedly bo elected ; that ho was a man who would disdoin to wield tho party lasli or to bow down to caucus dictation. Wo havo heard much,' said Baker, about its being a disbonorablo act to re fuse to abide by caucus action. Wo bavo heard much of influences which havo been brought to bear upon republican members of tho house to induce them to vote for a person thoy do not want. In some cases these lnuuences nave euc- cceded and ideas have been crushed into earth, but as Tor me I havo no fear of the party lash, King'.Caucus, I scorn you with contempt.' Baker spoke with much bitterness. He said tho thumbscrews of Spanish "inquisition had been applied; that threats of forclosing mortgages on poor people had been mado; that threats of witholdiug the state university appro priation had been wiolded over his own head: ho wanted to be pointed to the time when Dolph's voice had ever been raised in behalf of the old soldiers Dolph, he ea'uVwas owned by tho Ore . , ,. , goman ana a corporation oi gamoiers who oppose tho pension system because their Shylock hand cannot exact its pound of flesh from the government's appropriation to the old soldiers.' Baker spoko for a long time in this strain, and was frequently interrupted not only by clapping ol hands, but by vociferous cheering. His closing sentence was rounded out by the name of Judge Frank A. Moore; which was the signal for an other outburst, and-tho lobby and ciller ies broke out into wild and unrestrained demonstration." of 16 Better Cheaper. THE ROYAL BAKING POWDER is more economical than other brands because of its greater leavening strength, as shown by both the U. S. and Canadian Government Reports. The other baking powders contain from 20 to 80 per cent, less leavening gas than the ROYAL. So the ROYAL, even should it cost more than the others, would be much the cheaper. In addition to this the superior flavor, sweetness, wholesqme ness and delicacy of the food raised by ROYAL BAKING POWDER would make any difference in cost insignificant Highest of all in leavening strength.- Latest U.

Special corres pondence of the Plainoealur. Even if the senatorial question is not settled legislators are now getting down to work. Speaker Moores Tuesday morning an nounced his appointment of committees. Douglas county .fared exceedingly well, securing the chairmanship of tbrco com mittees and being represented on seven of them. Blundell is chairman of the committee on capitol building and grounds, and is also a member of the committees on education 'and on public lands. Sehlbrede is chairman of the committee on engrossed bills, and is also member of tLo judiciary committee. Bridges is chairman ot the committee on corporations, and a member of the fish and game committee. A number of Douglas county people have visited Salem during the past week, and many ot them seemingly nave axes to grind. Assessor Sterling is doing somo industrious lobbying for reform in the abuses of his office. He favors tho payment of fixed salaries to theassessors. A bill baa been introduced by Senator Holt, a populist from Jackson county. creating the office of state assessor and constituting the governor, secretary of state and state treasure the stale board of equalization. Governor Lord has strongly intimated that he will make no staff or institution appointments untii after tho close of the session. Those members of tho legislature and others who are interested in perpetuating tho railroad commission, are working hard to preveat tho repeal of the act by which that body was constituted. A sentiment is now being created favoring the selection of railroad commissioners at tho next regular election by the peo ple. Meanwhile the present legislature is to elect a commission, as heretofore, such board serving until their successors are elected and qualify. An effort will also bo made to extend the power of the commission, so that it will have jurisdic tion oyer tdl warehouses where grain is stored. It is claimed that m Eastern Oregon, the warehouse charges for hand ling wheat is 59 cents a ton, which is considered extortionate, as the claim is made that one-half that sum would be a fair charge. Many of the members still believe that tho railroad commission will bo abolished before the session closes, but some of these hops that there will be votes enough to accomplish such purpose without the necessity of their own being demanded Tto mako up the majority. Fully one-half tho members each have a candidate of their own, whoso claims they are pushing, nnd so great i the strain beinz made that there is now talk of changing the law so that all the mem bers can be of ono political party. Tho senate deserves credit for attempt ing at tho start to wisely regulate its committee clerkships. The compensa tion fixed is for judiciary : Two, at $5; enrolling and engrossing committees, one at $o a day ; and rest at $3 a day. Ways and means has one clerk at $5 a day Senator Patterson who submitted this report limited all other clerkships to $3 a dav. and in this work of reform has the hearty support of President Simon. Senator McGinn's bill concerning sala' ries of state officers fixes salaries: as fcl lows: Governor, $5000; judges ot the supremo court, $4000; secretary of state, flOOO; treasurer, MOOO; printer, $3,500 school superintendent, $1SOO; reporter of tho supremo court, $1000; clerk of the supremo court, $3000. All fees are to go into a salary fund, out of which the sal aries aro to bo paid. Appropriating fees to one's own use, or failing to keep a lee' book as provided, is punishable with $500 fine, or six months' imprisonment, or both, and forfeiture of office. Those by pn- 3iye Desiring Appointment the Governor. Just at present Governor Lord's vato secretary has stacks of very papers to handle in the form of applica tions for positions under the new admin istration and the endorsements of friends who are backing them fcr tho desired places. There is a large list of these worthy citizens of Oregon and nearly all are well recommended. Believing that the people will bo interested in knowing who are willing to take the chief posts of honor emolument, the list is herewith presented : Superintendent of the peni tentiary E. M.
