Sharp Superintendent of Public Schools. . .Troy Shelley Coroner William Michell The Chronicle is the Only Paper in The Dalles that Receives the Associated Press Dispatches. FIRST, CAST OUT THE BEAM. The following clipping from our ea- teemed contemporary the Portland Tele gram hits the nail squarely on the head and describes the situation exactly as it is. When this journal, opposed the per fidy of McCoy in his successful effort to defeat the Kaley bill, the- Times-Mountaineer flew to McCoy's defense and when the Chbonicle denounced the hirelings citizens of The Dalles who would sell themselves to the Union Pacific for a little coin to cripple the peoples' boats, it had to lift its voice alone, so far as the the newspapers of this city are concerned, says the Telegram. The Dalles Times-Mountaineer criti cises the governor for not calling an ex tra session of the legislature to provide for a portage around the dalles. While the Telegram is as earnestly and as en thusiastically in favor of such a road as The Dalles people can be, it recognizes the wisdom of the governor in refusing to put the state to about 50,000 expense, without being sure of having the desired legislation passed. The proposition was squarely before the last legislature in the Kaley bill, and was beaten. It was beaten partly by H. B. Miller, of Southern Oregon, aided, among others, by Representative McCoy, of Sherman count-. The Times-Mountaineer mmet ' know these facts ; and so far it has given no evidence that the same legislature would act differently from what it did last win ter. The governor would be hazarding entirely t-o much in putting the tax payers of the state to this expense with out any reasonable evidence of a change of heart on the part of the legislature, especially the contingent from Eastern Oregon, which the Times-Mountaineer supported before, and probably would again if the opportunity occurred, mere- j ly because thev are of republican noli- tics. ' -""-'". I011 I Sy the way, it looks as if the Times Mountaineer was not so consistent or sin cere as a paper in that -section of the state ought to be, in that it does not seem to give the aid and support it ought to to the men and the company who have been instrumental in opening Le river from The Dalles down. .All ptlv friendly words we have seen in that 1...yr jui nuBKs, anu weeks too, when a critical test was being made, have been for the Union Pacific or its agents atThe Dalles, and not one for the liberators of the commerce of that citv and surround ing country. It scarcely lies in the mouth of a paper that bus this record to criticise the governor for not calling an extra session,. There are mysteries about this silver question that no man seems to bo able to get to the bottom of. Silver has the "queer habit of doing the queerest things n the queerest, ways imaginable. Not long since-the financial . prophets were telling us that the expansion of silver coinage would flood this country with foreign silver. Well, coinage . was ex panded to an extent that made the mono-metal ist s lift up their hands in holy horror and now we are told that the United States has become an ex porter of silver and that in the month of August. last 3,149,483 ounces left the country, this being the largest shipment in any one month since January, 1890, when the silver agitation first began to effect the market. . The Wasco Sun is out in favor of Judge A. S. Ben net for congressman from this congressional district. The Chbonicle is not in the business of nominating can didates and is of the opinion that a dem ocrat has very little chance of electidn in a district so largely republican but it is free to say, which it does-very sincerely, that of all the democratic ' names ' that have been mentioned for congressional honors from the second Oregon district, in every qualification befitting the office, Judge Bennett stands head and shoulders above all bis competitors. If this dis trict should conclude to send a democrat to Washington it will honor itself by sending Judge Bennett. Senator John T. Morgan, in the Nov ember Forum sincerely bewails the wan ing power and influence of the farmers' alliance.' He says: "It is a melancholy- thought that the pure purposes and principles of the farmers' alliance should be abused by selfish politicians who have crept into its secret councils." - Senator Morgan's grief is-suspicious. When he draws an ideal pen picture of his own party and sajs '.'These sincere defenders of the people will miss the powerful support of the alliance," one cannot re- sist the conclusion that he grieves more because of the, loss of an ally than he does for that ally's personal success. . President Polk delicately alludes to the rumor that he and Senator Stanford are going to be the name's on the al liance presidential ticket. That is, Stanford for president and Polk for vice president. But it is evident the arrange ment does not suit Mr. Polk for he is reported to have said of Senator Stan ford that he would not be able to get an alliance vote for constable. Now that the elections are over the papers have laid tariff, free trade' and the silver question temporarily on the shelf while they are devoting their time to gaessing.who is going to win in the next race. Stole His Quicksilver. The Portland Oreqonian of November 15th contains an account of the break ing up of a band of 'counterfeiters and stage-robbers, which has been operating on the border between Oregon and Cali fornia, by the arrest of George Jones, the last of the gang - The mention of Tom Miles in connection with the ar rest recalls to the mind of W. D. Fletcher an experience he had with this same gang which has been in existence many years in the northern part of the Laussen country, Northern California, in 1870, where Mr. Fletcher was then superintending a mine and mill. Un der the floor of the shanty nsed as the company's office he hid eleven tanks of quicksilver, then valued at $1.50 a pound, each tank weighing 100 pounds. The hiding place became known to the gang and Miles, their leader, engineered a scheme to steal it, which was success fully carried into effect. The losers kept quiet and succeeded in finding out all about the robberv and recovering the quicksilver, six tank? being found buried behind Miles bouse, four in a creek bottom, and the last one under neath a culvert. Three of the gang im- Ciicatea in tne roDDery were convicted, ut Miles, who was a very clever gentle man and -succeeded in covering his own trail, escaped punishment. Many de-. predations have been committed by this' old organization of law-breakers. '- Racing Organization to be Sold. Lexixgtox, Ky., Nov. 18. Messrs.

The Bajt City and Tillamook Telegraph wmpanv formally opened its office for business in this city yesterday morning. A few days ago J. S. and J. G. Ken nedy, brothers, living in Woods, Tilla mook county, went hunting in the mountains. They tramped together un til about noon when they ate dinner. When they started to hunt they separ ated with the understanding that they meet at a certain place, the dog follow ing J. S. Kennedy. After being separ ated some time, J.
