tionzales, editor of the Columbia State
mi l one of the most pr minent politi
cians in the Ptiito, was shot down in the
street here today at 1 o'clock by Lieutenant-Governor
Janus II Tillman.
Editor Gonzales was on his way home
to dinner from his office when he met
Mr. Til man, who was accompanied by
two State Senators.
It is taid that not a word was spoken
as the editor and Lieutenant-Governor
met. Tillman in-tantlv d ;ew a revolvwi
a;id placing it close to the body of Gon-
iles fired. Gonzales staggered and
then catching his balance turned to
wards the nmn who had shot him.
Tillman had the smoking revolver in
i hand with the m'i..le pointing at
lie wounded man.
"Coward," shouted Gonzales, a he
was caught by partes who had rushed
o his net-i-tam-e.
Lieutenant Governor Tillman was im
mediately placed under ' arrest and Mr.
iouzalcs was hurriedly carried to the
ffice of the Columbia State, where
medical aid wa summoned.
In the city the wildest excitnient pre
vailed and thousands congregated at the
new spa per office. .
Mr. Gonzale at this hour (3 P. M.) is

Arrangements are now being made to
carrv him to the hospital, were the
wound iil le proled. It is not known
as vet whether the h'dlct entered the

From a hurril examination, however,
the wound in regarded as very serions.
The bullet entcrid the rient side and
came from toe lejt, a.ing entirely
through the body. Eye witnesses de

an 1 who had won a record for bravery

made. The charges Gonzales made
were spread ail over the South, and
made a deep sensation, many uncom
plimentary remarks being made La the
preMof the countrr because Tillman
did not resent the charges.
The feeling between the two men was
very deep and bitter, and although they
had never before had a personal en

Why Hon. George H. Williams, May
or or Portland is Not Now on
the Supreme Bench.
A correspondent of the Charlotte, S.
C, "Daily Observer" has the following
to state regarding the reason Hon. Geo.
H. Williams, of Portland, ex-senator of
Oregon and now mayor of the metropo
lis of the state, failed of confirmation
to the position President Grant appo.nt
ed him. It will serve to recall the inci
dent to many old residents of Oregon
ana be read w ith interest ov new ones:
Your Washington correspondent in
is "Notes," published in today's paper,
peaks of the appointment by President
Grant of George H. Williams an "As
ciate Justice" of the Supreme Court,
which nomination the senate refined to
confirm. It is a very small matter,
(erhaps, but when a statement is pre
pared for publication it is just as well
to hare it accurate; otherwise why go
to the trouble of making it at all?
Mr. Williams, who at trat time was
Attoroev General, was named for the
position of Chief Justice, vice Chase, de
ceased. Prior to his entering Grant's
Cabinet Mr. Williams was a prominent
member of the L nitcd States Senate
during the stormy days of Johnson's
administration He was th' author of
he reconstruction legislation by which
the seceded states were permitted to re
enter the Union.
The Senate's failure to confirm Wil-
iams was dne to a woman's quarrel.
The wile ot Ju.lge Williams was a wo
man of great ability, as well as the pos
sessor of remarkable personal charms
n her day she exerted a powerful influ
ence in ashington. Jealous oi her
prominence and power the other women
of the high official diss combined for
her overthrow, and this opportunity
came when Williams was named for
Chief Justice. The fight was long and
vigorous, anl tlur oppomion at one
stage w as nearly rooted ; but in the end
succeeded in preventing the con firm a
tion. And this i why Vt ill mm a is cot
now Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the Unite.! States.
Mrs. Williams alandoned society and
thereafter until ber death a tew years
ato devoted herself to religion. She
became so austere in the oliservanee of
hat she considered hei religious duties
that slid frequently endangered her life
by prolonged fastings. Her death it
said to have U-en due to one cf thw
oerKls of abstinence wherein she dt-
prived herself of fod for several weeks.
Slie was lorn to rule; nature lavished
upon her with a prodigal hand a wea'tl
of charms and mental endow merits of
the first order.

President Estes' visit to Portland has

There are several hundred of them, all

another tour of ihe state for the purpose
of increasing the strength of the organi

his last stopping place, and has com

cities from Houston, Tex., to Vancou

f the order was founded a few days ago
at Tacoma and South Tacoma among
workmen of the railroad and in the

One of the most important pieces of
work which President Estes was called
upon to look after within the past few
weeks was a threatened strike at Van

an end through the offices of arbitration.

Fatal Shooting Accident.
Ashland, Jan. It5 The news of
another case of accidental shooting, this

here. The deplorable accident occurred

a stated consideration of flO.Ot.O.

together with about 6ti acres of adjoin
ing pasture land was incimbd in the
transaction. Alexander A Campbell,
the well known lumbermen of Cottage
Grove, are at the bead of the purchasing
company, being represented here by Mr.
C S Whitcouib, who consummated the
deal with Chief Engineer Kinney, of the
Great Central Railroad Co.
The transfer of this proirty to other
hands in no wise changes the character
as a building site, nor will it in any way
interfere with the Salt IjikeCoo Bay
project ; neither d-es it mean that Mr.
Kinney u to sever connection witn I. is
business interests here, but quite to the
contrary. Major Kinnev, of tle Great
Central railroad project, simply made
the transfer because he felt that the
building up and general welfare of the
new addition would be hastened by its
passing into ether hands, as there has
been showu a deposition on the part of
the local knockers and the skeptical ones
to block every step of advancement that
might be attempted by the Great Cen
tral people in this enterprise. It is good
propertv and a more sightly locat:on for
homes or business property would be
hard to find anywhere about R -seburg
There is said to be outstanding against
the townsite company debts aggregating
a total of about ,000, of which some
12,000 was due to the Roseburg Lumber
Co. This company, perceiving the value
of tbn nronertv. came forward in the
" - w -
emergency and took it off of Mr. Kin
nev'a hands. Thev will carry on the
sale of lots, improve the property, erect
residences, and, in general, carry out
the work outlined by Mr. Kinney.
All accounts against the property
which arose under Mr. Kinney's man
agement will be paid by the new com
pany just as soon as the necessary mom y
is acquired from the sale of lots therecn
Mr. Kinnev will now be in a position
to devote his entire time and attention
to the Great Central Railroad and
its kindred enterprises at Coos Bay, and
will endeavor to get matters in shape
for active operations this spring and
summer. After the affairs of bis former
townsite holdings are all settled up, the
Major will visit Eastern points to look
after important business pertaining to
the construction of the Great Central
Railroad.
