The Portland Telegram eays: "Mr,
Ellis is running for congress on a plat
form that is 'heartily , in favor of the
iXtlph-Mitcnell boat-railway echeme,
-which to say the least is -experimental,
and will take many veara to complete,
if it is practical at all. but which save
not a word in favor of a portage road, to
be built either by the Federal govern
ment or the state, and hence must be
opposed to it. What do the people of
Eastern Uregon think of this!
- The Chronicle may not speak for the
republican party but it caa speak for
Eastern Oregon. Over this way every
man who is blessed with a reasonable
.amount of common sense knows, as well
as be can know anything of a similar
character, that there does not exist the
shadow of a hope that the federal gov
ernment will ever undertake to over
come the obstructions at the dalles by
any work of a less permanent character
than a boat railway or a canal. The
discussions recently carried on in the
river and harbor committee ought to
have made this sufficiently clear. If we
are ever to have a portage road the state
will have to build it. A platform in
favor of a portage road built by the gen
eral government would be so far nothing
Jess - than buncome. Instead " of
Tainly looking to congress for relief we
seek to send men to the state legislature
who are pledged to work for an appro
priation from that quarter.
The treasury department at Washing
ton has issued a statement showing the
total amount of money of all kinds of
circulation on the first day of tbe pres
ent month to have been $1,608,641,530,
.-an increase of $78,561,056 over the
.-amount in circulation 'on the first in
- April a year ago. Reckoning the popu
lation of tbe United States at sixty-five
millions, this gives a per capita circula
tion of $24.74, a higher per capita than
- existed at any time during the war when
"it was necessary to issue millions of
paper money to preserve the nation's
life. . The increase in circulation is
larger than the increase in population,
the 6ilver bill of 1890, alone, adding
fifty-four millions annually. With these
facts before us it is impossible to find
any reasonable justification for an infla
tion that involves the right of every man
who is possessed of 68 cents worth of
, silver bullion to have a United States
mint stamp placed on it, falsely certify
' ing it to be a hundred cent dollar.
The Prineville Newt (Dem.) says:
"Eastern Oregon scored one at the re
publican state convention when that
body placed Hon. W. "R. Ellis, of Hepp
ner, in "nomination for congressman
from the second .district of this state.
Mr. Ellis is well known in Crook county
-as an able attorney, a man of affairs and
a thorough gentleman, and it will be a
. surprise if, in June, the county does not
-voice its appreciation of Mr. Ellis as
plainly as it has on different occasions
la the past."-
At the late democratic county conven
tion of Marion county, a delegate was
seen wearing a tuft of wool, labeled
'free". The convention appropriately
- nominated him for coroner.
Rhode Island Finances.
Pbovidekcx, April 18. Recently "the
heirs of a family named Howlaqd, ' dis
covered an obligation held against this
state, bearing date of 1770, which, to
gether with principal and interest," ag
gregated $500,000. The law under which
the debt was originally incurred pro-
. Tided that it should be paid in Spanish
milled dollars. A subsequent act pror
Tided that the issue of 1770 notes could
be paid in new notes, "equivalent to the
silver," issued in 1786. These old notes
of 1786 had been preserved, and when
the claimants under the . notes of 1770
called for their $500,000 last week Slate
Treasurer Clarke took the attorney of
the claimant to the treasury vault and
told him to help himself to as many
'millions as he wanted from some 20 old
: haircloth trunk?, stuffed with notes of
the 1786 issue, each one bearing on its
face the legend : "This is equivalent to
silver," and thus the state was saved,
by paying him in strict conformity to
the ancient and unrepealed law, which
says the notes of 1770 must be redeemed
-by the notes of 1786. When Mr. Rider,
the claimant, arrives "he will, be intro
duced to his treasure, and express wag
ons will be at his service for the removal
of the compound interest. If he declines
to accept and cart away his money there
is the old and also unrepealed law pro
viding fine, imprisonment, and stripes,
well laid on,", ioi any one who refuses
these notes in payment of that particular
. Deeming in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles, April 17. Deeming the
Demon married a Mrs. Catching in this
city, in January 1888, under ' the name
of Williams. She was too confiding for
her own good. - Her speculative spouse
was allowed the freedom of her bank
savings, and one day Mrs. Williams
found both her money and husband
gone. This was in the spring of 1888,
and nothing has ever been seen or heard
of him since. He took about $2,000, all
she had saved in long years. -It was
never known, where he went, but it was
that he came from Australia. Mrs
Catching, however, whom he married,
robbed and deserted, is not inclined to
believe the identity of the two men.
She professes to see no striking similarity
in the photographs, but it is a sore sub
ject with her, naturally, and she could
hardly be expected to confess that she
had once been allied with a wretch like
Deeming.
Tbe Minneapolis Move.
Minneapolis, April 18. The hotels
are overrun with applications for apart
ments already, and there is no doubt
that the city will have more people in it
next June taan it ever had before which
is Bavins a (treat deal, for there have
been some pretty big crowds here in the
last ten years. There need be no fears,
though, that there will not be room
enough for everybody. The republicans
of this state, are for Harrison, and it

Mr. J. P. Blaize, an extensive real
estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa, nar
rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks of pneumonia while in the north
ern part of that state during a recent
blizzard, says the Saturday Review. Mr.
Blaize had occasion to drive several
miles during the storm and was so thor
oughly chilled that he was unable to
get warm, and inside of an hour after
his return he was threatened with a
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store
and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
xvemeay, oi wnicn ne nad oiten heard.
and took a number of large doses. He
says the effect was wonderful and that
in a short time he was breathing .quite
easily. He kept on taking the medicine
and the next day was able to - come to
Des Moines. Mr. Blaize regards his
cure as simply wonderful. 50 cent
