SUPPORT THE NEW BOATS. A few davs more and ' the relief that the people of this section have prayed for during so many years will be an ac complished fact. The river will be opened to Portland and freights will be reduced to a rate that will put thous ands of dollars annually in the pockets of producers and consumers alike. The men who have put their money into The Dalles, Portland A Astoria Navigation Co.'s stock have not done so with the expectation of reaping any direct bene' fit from the investment! Thev will be berfectly satisfied if the traffic will se cure them from direct loss, and they are more than entitled to this exemption But this lies with the people ; and every man, woman and child who has a dollar to invest in freight between this city and Portland ought to make a conscience of seeing that the new company gets it. ' If not if by any adverse fortune or by the opposition of the Union Pacific com pany we should be reduced to the con dition we have been in during the past, the people themselves, who would reap the benefit of the opposition, will be to blame. The farmers will undoubtedly 'stay with the new company, but they should mark every merchant or business man in this city or elsewhere who does not support it. The story told of the parting of Secre taries Blaine and Rusk a few months ago, when the latter was about to leave with the president for California, is es pecially relevant now. The two men are warm personal friends. "Jere," said the secretary of state, "there is one thing I want to ask of you, and that is that yon will take good care of my reciprocity." Yes, certainly," was the apt reply j "I will do that all right. And now, there is one thing I' want to ask of you look after my "hog." ,No treaty negotiated or negotiable under the reciprocity clause of the McKinley bill can compare in the importance of its bearing on American agriculture and trade to the removal of the invidious re strictions upon the importatied of Ameri can swine meat. In establishing a sys tem of inspection which had the effect .to remove the restriction Secretary Rusk -did more than the state department ;ould possibly have done to enlarge the market for American products. A democratic exchange, referring to a vplank in the platform of the democratic party in Pennsylvania, intimates thatj the "commandment "thou shalt not steal" was a plank in an old cemocratic .platform, in the time of Moses. liKIEF STATE NEWS. It. C. Templeton, a well-known resi dent of Umatilla county has been ad judged insane and sent to the insani asylum. An unknown man was found dead up on the South Fork of the Nehalem above the falls. The body was found in the water in a badly decomposed, condition, and there was nothing about hiin to identify him. He had pack straps on his back, and it is supposed that he was a prospector. John Claypool has sold his land at the crossing of the O. P., survey on Des chutes to a capitalist of Philadelphia, who. lt is said, is connected with the O. P. Co. When 'capitalists begin buying land along the proposed line of this road, it creates a hope that the road may vet be built. Ochoco Rtriew. The first annual session of the Til lamook county fair, which was held at Tillamook, last week, was a success. The farmers . throughout the country lacked enterprise in not getting. in a larger, supply of farm products, and it was left to R. R. Hayes to carry off all the premiums for the best exhibit of vegetables. Andrew McCalley, a well-known cit izen of Walla' Wally, died Tuesday morning after a short illness. He was born in Scotland in 3825 and in 1852 came to America, settling in Illinois. In 1859 he came to the Pacific Coast, set tling in -the Willamette valley, afterwards-moving to the Walla Walla val ley where he has lived for the past thirty years?. An old bachelor was rescued from a j fire recently. He had been helped out! vi iiieHuioKingrujns oi nis louring house with difficulty. The smell of smoke was yet on him when he heard a bystander remark that six cats and a canary bird had perished in the flames.: "Then that fire was not whollv in vain," said the bachelor. , . A German entered a Portland store yesterday morning, and after making a few purchases remarked that "it vas fine weather we are having now." Yes, said the proprietor, but we had quite an earthquake last night. "Yes, yes, dot ish goot for the farmers," and departed. The"first stage ever arriving in Green horn City, the summit of Greenhorn mountain, 9000 feet above the level of the sea, was that which conveyed Messrs. Clarno, Stewart and Abrahams, of Port land, to Oregon's great silver camp the fore part of last week. Its arrival was an event of some importance to the miners of that section and was received by loud cheering and enthusiasm. Uncle Tom Whitworth, a familiar per son in the Echo neighborhood, had been to Pendleton "taking in the circus, and started to walk to his home on Sunday, a distance of twenty miles. Later in the day he was picked up by two men,' lying by the roadside, near the Isaac place, about two miles from the railroad, his body a mass of wounds and braises. Upon being taken to the hospital it was thought he might have been struck by aii engine, but Uncle Tom stoutly main tained that he had been struck "by two men. His condition is serious. Bay State Republicans. Boston, Sept. 16. The republican state convention of Massachusetts have nominated for governor Charles H. Al len; for lieutenant governor, William H. Hale ; for secretary of state, William Olin ; for treasurer, George A. Mardin ; for attorney -general, Albert E. Pills bury ; and for auditor, John W. Kiln ball. At the opening of the convention Chairman Henry Cabot Lodge, , review ing the history and traditions of the re publican party, said in part: The republican party stands as a bul wark against the movement for free coinage of silver without previous inter national agreement. Every man who believes in honest money and who is op posed to inflated currency must vote the republican ticket. If he does not he is giving direct support for principles which he abhora. nrwi fnr which he dreads.

Polk, president of the national farmers' alliance, makes a point in his address of denying the stories of his inhnmanitv tn Union soldiers, and denies he never held rank above third lieutenant, and could therefore, never have been in authority at any post. - Mr. McAllister, a veteran of that city, who was in Salisbury prison, X C. when Pnllr wna cmvamAw sick parole signed by L.

A score or so of old soldiers eot together today and perfected plans for applying tar and feathers to Polk before he should leave town tonight, but some how the news of the intention leaked out and the police took steps to prevent the projected assault. . He Cuts the Throat of his Paramour and Then Kills Himself. . St. Louis, Sept. 17. When Eugene Shire, who was incacerated yesterday, for making a murderous assault upon his paramour. ' Maggie Dolan,' secured his liberty, he went to 71 Morgan street, where he found.the woman. Throwing his arm around her he pinned her to the wall,, and whipping out a knife, he slashed her throat from ear to ear. Be lieving that he had killed her, he cut his own throat. The couple were re moved to the hospital. Little hope is entertained of their recovery. , Oregon Pacific Matters. Corvallis, Or., Sept 16. In the mat ter of the payment of the Oregon Pacific employes, Judge Pipes last evening made an order giving the receiver until October 20th to appear and show cause why he should not be removed from the office. The earnings in the meantime are to be applied to the operating ex-penses.- Jfo More Continued, i. , Washington, Sept. 16. Secretary Foster issued a circular this afternoon giving notice that no more bonds of the 4a per cent, loan would be received for continuance at two per cent, after the 30th.

Rolfe, the - authority on Shakespeare and Shakespereans, is mak ing his ninth trip abroad. ' .. .... : Herbert Spencer, considerably " im proved in health, is once more hard 'at work on his philosophy in a little house in the edge of Sovernake forest. Mr. Blaine's favorite light literature is said to be the novels of William Black and Clark Russell. Stevenson he finds to grotesque and Howells and James too uninteresting.. . Bishop Leonard has so far modified his sentence against the Rev. Howard McQueary as to annul the clause order ing his deposition from the pulpit in case he does not retract the declarations which were found objectionabe by the ecclesiastical court. J. C. Ileywood, a Harvard graduate of the degree f A. M., A. B. and LL.B., of the class of 1855, has been appointed by the pope one of his private chamber lains. Such an officer has an extensive power. He has charge of the papal revenues. Mr. Hey wood has practiced law, and is a poet of merit. A queer sight to be 'seen almost any day upon the streets of Danville, Ind., is that of Johnny Craig, the largest man in the world, wheeling along his six-months-old baby in a ordinary baby car riage. Craig now weighs 823 pounds, while young master Craig is not above the average six-months-old child. The report that the Tranby Croft will again be crowded with the fashionable guests of the Wilson family is not at all surprising to people who know enough of England to understand that its loca tion makes it a most desirable houses to be invited to during the Doncaster week, when the St. Leger is to be run. The hundredth anniversary of the birth of Theodore Koerner, the German poet, will be celebrated on Sept. 23, and preparations are being made on a great scale. Few men did more than Koerner to advance the cause of German indepen dence. He died the death of a hero on the field of battle when only 22 years old. His famous song, "Da Schwert an Meiner Lin ken," remains one of the most popular compositions in German literature. Its lines have inspired many a young officer to deeds of glory. The new French minister at Wash ington, M. Jules Patenotre, after having served three years in Sweden in a like capacity, was sent as minister to China ! and negotiated the treaty of peace signed at Tein Tsin June 9, 1885, which put an end to the Tonquin complica tion. When M. Constans succeeded him in 1887, M. Patenotre -was sent to Mpr rocco to represent France. A Terrible Sentence. -From Vail Mull Gazette. . Little boys who are foolish enough to steal pears that are unripe, will do well to avoid "orchards that are under the magisterial jurisdiction of the West Lon don police court. Probably by this time George Webbing and John Sullivan have rued the day when they trespassed on the grounds of Mr. Richard Hyde, a Hammersmith solicitor, for the purpose of robbing the proprieter' of his imma-t ture fruit ; for instead of .ordering . them' to be whipped, Mr. Partridge inflicted' upon them the severe punishment of re quiring each of the juvenile offenders to eat that which he had plucked. "I hope they will make your stomach ache," observed the magistrate, whereupon the boys demolished the stolen pears with a self-abnegation that was posi tively heroic. Whether the result justi fied the experiment time-, alone can show. Meanwhile the lads have been remanded to the workhouse. It Didn't Work. Dublin Tinies. - . "Brown do you know why you are like a donkey ?" . "Like a donkey ?" echoed Brown, opening wide his eyes. "No I don't." "Do you give it np?" "I do." "Because your better half is stubborn ness itself." ' "That's not bad. Hal-ha! I'll give that to my wife when I get home." "Mrs. Brown," he asked, as he sat down to supper, "do you know why I am so much like a donkey ?" He waited a moment,' expecting his wife to give it up. , She looked at him somewhat coin miseratingly as she answered : ; . "I suppose because you were born so." A. A.'
