FENCING GOVERNMENT LAND.
An act of congress passed in February
3885 makes the fencing of government
land a criminal offence and fixes the
punishment at a line, not to exceed $1000
or imprisonment not to exceed one year.
The act makes it the duty of the United
States district attorney to prosecute offenders,-
and the punishment applies to
all connected with the work of putting
up the fence. -
But the case is sup'iosed of a jierson
owing land so situated that by building
a fence entirely on his own land he can
enclose more or less government land
and the question is aHked : does such a
case come within the provisions of the
act? Can the government destroy the
' fence or punish the man who built it?
The supreme court of Wyoming had
such a case before it and the court de
cided in favor of the defendant. The
court held that the statute so far as it
forbids, as a nuisance, the erection by a
person of a fence wholly within the
limits of his own land, is not a legitimate
exercise of the police power but an un
warranted invasion of private property,
and is unconstitutional and void, and
that said act was not intended to forbid
the erection by a laud owner of a fence
wholly within the limits of his own land.
In this case the fence already built
had been destroyed and the judge in ex
plaining the grounds of the court's de
cision said : "Though my fields shall
have never a rail upon it, yet my neigh
bor dare not make it hie pathway with
out my consent. He cannot use my
land any more than he can use my horse.
He cannot tramp my grass any more
than he can cut my trees. The fence
lieing destroyed what greater facility bf
access to the government sections will
the public then have than if the fence
had remained? In the former case a
physicial obstacle would be out of the
way but a legal obstacle would remain.
The former may be stepied over ; the
latter present an impassible barrier.
The fence is on the defendant's land.
Kemove it and the land remains. Who
shall go ujKn it without the owner's con
sent? Shall the government descend to
the plane of a trespasser? Unquestion
ably a right of way can be obtained, but
it must be bought and paid for in the
manner prescribed for the condemna
tion of lands. Moreover, the line of
pathway must be described and the
transit of the public limited to that line.
THE INVASION BUGBEAR.
There is very much good sense in the
following from the Alia:
Members of the next congress should
not unduly worry about the defensless
condition of our costs. No foreign ship
has fired a hostile shot at us for seventy
five years. There is no evidence that
one will be fired for seventy-five years to
come. If one should be fired there is no
evidence that any of the contemplated
coast defences would defend us. France
was protected by costly frontier forts the
building and equipping of which had
capped the substance of her people, but
Oermany walked past these forts as if
they had been hay barracks.
The truth is there is a great number of
things we need more than coast de
fenses. The policy of tbe nation
together with our peculiar geographical
position has kept us from foreign broils
that required the arbitrament of war to
settle. With all the vaunted Italian
navy it appears the big war ships dare
not venture across, the Atlantic for fear
of going to the , bottom. We have no
fears' pf hostile invasion, from , any coun
try this side the Atlantic and tie strong
est European i nation, will think a long
time before it attempts one. The United
States wants nothing from any one but
what is just , and fair and as a conse
quence we are not likely to get into any
trouble that a wise arbitration will :not
get us out of. f : ".! .. .
The Dalles has not bad a fourth of
July celebration for several years and
me enterprising gentlemen who met
the other night and took the first steps
towards having one this year deserve the
thanks of the community. , Let us have
a rousing celebration, and one worthy of
the town at the gateway of the Inland
Empire. As such things are not had
without money -we hope a liberal res
ponse will be made to the efforts of the
finance committee.
That it is necessary for a man to drink
liquor every day is a theory . that will
hold water.
Funny, isn't it that after a man has
once given his word he should try so
hard to keep it.

Hon. R. S. Anderson of. Baker City,
at the reception of the president the
other day at; that place delivered a little
speech i that if correctly reported by the
Oreaou Blade shows him to be a man em:
inently qualified for an important, posi
tion on the staff of an evening paper
that we know of. He is reported to have
said : '
Mr. President, it affords me great
pleasure in behalf of the mayor of this
city to welcome vou here. As an evi
dence of esteem in which your wise ad
ministration is held by my fellow citi
zens, you can see this grand convocation
of our countrymen, who have met here
at this late hour to pay their respects to
you, as well as to the postmaster-general,
the secretary of agriculture, Mrs.
Harrison, and all those who accompany
you. Owing to the schedule of your it
ineracy time forbids me to say more.
Ain't "schedule of your iiineracy"
"diaphanous" to a turn? Don't it
knock "congealed element" higher than

Governor Pennoyer has certainly made
no mistake in filling the office of judge
of the Seventh judicial district, made
vacant by the resignation of Judge Bird,
in apioiiiting Hon. W. L. Bradshaw, of
The Dalles, as Judge Bird's successor.
Judge Bradshaw held his first term of
court in this county, he having been ap
pointed on Friday of last week, and pp
ened court here on Monday last. In "his
charge to the grand jury, his methods of
disposing of business orid his ready de
cisions on points of law, he has demon
strated that he is a lawyer of ability,
and one well fitted for the high position
of honor and trust which he holds. One
sitting in bis conrt would conclude from
the met hodical way in which he disposes
of business that he was a judge of many
vears practice, and not that he was
holding his first term.
Judge Bradshaw is thirty-three years
of age, and is a Missourian by birth, but
may almost be considered an Oregonian,
having come to this state at an early
age. Ilia early education was obtained
at the State Agricultural college at Cor
vallis, after which he attended the law
school at St. Louis, Mo., where he gradu
ated in 1881, since when he has prac
ticed his profession at Lafayette and
The Dalles.
The sugar trade of the United States
is the exclusive property of Spreckels
and Havemeyer, and these two thrifty
citizens seem to be very much pleased
with the action of the government in
E lacing sugar on the free list. This will
e one of the cases in which the con
sumer pays the tax after the tax has
been removed just the same as he did
before. The only difference is that he
pays it so Havemeyer and Spreckels now
instead of to the government. The lib
erality of our government in offering a
bounty for home grown sugar has elicited
considerable comment and argument,
btit it is a very insignificant matter com
pared with the liberality of turning over
the tariff revenue upon sugar to Have
mever and Spreckels. Great is the lib
erality of the sweet-toothed American'
people. Ashland Tidings.
Baby is sick; The woeful expression
of a Des Moines teamster's countenance
showed his deep anxiety was not entire
ly without cause, when he inquired of a
druggist of the same city what was best
to give a baby for a cold? It was not ne
cessary for him to say more, his counte
nance showed that the pet of the family,
if not the idol of his life was in distress.
"We give our baby Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy," was the druggist's answer.
"I don't like to give the baby such strong
medicine," said the teamster. You know.
John Oleson, of the Watters-Talbot Print
ing Co., don't you? inquired the drug
gist. "His baby, when eighteen months
old, got hold of a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and drank the whole of
it. Of course it made the baby vomit
very freely but did not injure it in the
least, and what is more, it cured the ba
by's cold. The teamster already knew
the value of the Remedy, having used it
himselt, and was now satisfied that there
was no danger in giving it even to a
baby. For sale by Snipes & Kinersly. .
A short time ago rock from the hill
opposire Rose burg was being' used in
paving the streets of that city. A gen
tleman who was there at the time exam
ined the rock and found it contained
silver as well as tracings of tin. He sur
prised the people by showing them what
a valuable style of pavement they were
using. Investigations show that silver
rock that is well worth working abounds
in that vicinity, and efforts are being
made to have it utilized. Oregonian.
