The Alliance Farmir, of, Portland,
spcakins of the work and objects of the
Portland committee of a hundred, or
ganized to purify the Augean stable of
Portland politics says: "Wliile the com
mittee will not likely endorse all the al
liance platform the two bodies will
heartily co-operate to purify political
methods and elect none but honorable
and capable men to public positions.
Both will be fully prepared to do their
whole duty at the next June election so
as to send a delegation to the next legis
lature which will not be under the
thumb of Joe Simon to do his dirty
. work instead of serving the public in
terests." " We hope the alliance will be
as good as its word. By adopting the
policy outlined by the Farmer the alli
ance can do more good, solid, lasting
work in one hour than it can if it talked
sub-treasury and free coinage to the
crack of doom. By all means sit down
squarely on Joe Simon and all his sup
porters. He and- they are a standing
disgrace to Oregon politics. But if the
alliance switches off on the third party
track Joe will tindonbtedly get his nose
in the public crib and the others will be
left out in the iold. Anything "to beat
the Joe Simon ring should be the battle
cry of the next state campaign.
Robert Miller, a prominent democrat
of (Southern Oregou is authority for the
statement that members of his party all
over the state are deeply interested in
. the light between Binger Hermann and
Harry B. Miller, to Secure the nomina
tion for congress at the next republican
state convention. It is hoped that the
contest will increase- the chances for
deiuocratic success by splitting the re
publicans. The day that the republi-.
cans of the first district, change Binger
Herman .for Hany Miller they will
make a mistake that they will regret for

. The newspapers in the first congres

' well to disagree about the matter, for it
will behard to find it man to success

people will decide that Mr. H. shall sue-
ceed himself, and if they do no one save
the politicians will be disappointed.
Willou a Chieftain.
A Sad Accident.
The Willowa Chieftain of the' 15th
inst. contains the following :
"Xesterday about .11 o'clock Homer, L
the ten year old son of Mr. and Mrs. J.
C'. Hutchinson, of 'Prairie Creek, acci
dently shot himself with a 38-calbro rer
yblver. The particulars of the sad affair
are as follows : Homer and Win. .How
ard, a young man who is working for
Mr. HutchinEon, were in the barn work
ing wilh a horse they had just brought
from the pasture. Howard had laid
assde his coat, on the inside pocket of
which was his' revolver. Hornet spoke
about taking the revolver out of " the
pocket, but was cautioned to leave it
alone. Howard turned around towards
the horee, and a moment afterward
heard a shot and the exclamation of the
hov, "Oh, I have shot myself!" He
then picked the unfortunate lad up and
started with him towards the house.
Homer only spoke once after he was
taken up, and that was a request to be
put down while Howard' was earring
him. The ball from the pistol struck
him in the right breast, and he only
lived a few moments after reaching .the
house. Dr. Gaily, who happened to bo
passing, was called and rendered all the
assistance possible to Mrs. .Hutchinson.
i who was completely postratecT by the
unfortunate affair. Mr. Hutchinson
started for Elgin yesterday morning, but
was overtaken near ixistme by a mes
senger with the sad news of "his boy's
death, and hastily returned home last
evening.
Homer was a bright little fellow, the
only child and the idol of his parents.
His. death is a terrible blow to -them,
and their many friends throughout the
vnlley will deeply sympathize with
them in their bereavement.
Horrible Story of Youthful Depravity.
A horrible story of youthful depravity
came to light Sunday when ' Albert
Kohis, a sixteen-year-old ' boy fn the
employ of a farmer named Kodatz, re
siding near Milwaukee, Wis., confessed
that he had murdered his employer's
fifteen-year-old daughter Annie. He
had been . intimate with the girl, who
was weak-minded, and was about to be
come a mother. Not relishing this turn
of affairs, he killed her October 7th and
secreted the body. On the day of the
murder he first put into the soup which
the family was to have for dinner a
large quantity of paris green. Mr.
Kodatz eat soup first, and being taken
violently ill, at once : prevented the
others irom partaking of it. After the
failure of the poisoning scheme he went
to repair a hole in the barn floor. Annie
went with hiin, and while sjie was hold
ing a board for him to saw, he crushed
her head with a hammer and placed the
body in the hole. He then covered it
with manure and nailed, down the floor.
He does not realize the enormity of his
crime.

schooner Annie S. Conant arrived here

seamen were put on the rig-to take her
