Makshpield, Or., iet:. 7. News has
just Iau received from- tlie headwater's
of Cooa river thnt John Macklebrink, a
prorainent citizen and pioneer of tbia
county, was t-hot and instantly killed
last evening. Two brothers, Herman
and Erick Peterson, were quarreling
when Mucklebrink interfered, and the
only shot that took effect killed hiiu.
It is supposed that be was trying to
sepai-wre the two brothers. - Although
six shots were fired, and it is not icitown
which one of the brothers killed Mackle
briuk. The steamer has gone to the
scene with Justine Jennings and a jury
to hold an inquest.
ftives Itall. of Hiii Crime.
. San Diego, Dec. 7. Captain Samuel
Smith, murderer of George eale, the
16-year-old boy, off the Coronado
islands on Friday morning last, today
made a full confession of the crime. - He
says he brained the boy with a hatchet,
afterward casting him into the sea. The
discharge of the rifle he ascribed to ac
cident, bat admits that Neale was not
dead hen thrown overboard, but cried
out for help. In'rehearsing his part in
the iragedy the old man. displayed no
feeling, but at the close he exclaimed :
"My God, why did I do it?" He s.iyb
he intended to destroy Silbery also, but
after he got away with Neale he thought
he could get along with the other boy.
The only reosons he assigned for the
crime is that the boye had set the small
boat adrift, thus compelling him to re
turn to port without a fall cargo of gua
no. A new complaint was filed against
Smith here. today in the United States
court, and commissioner Ward held
him to answer to the charge in the
district court ut Los Angeles, to which
place the prisoner was taken.
THK FINANCIAL POI.IC.
Keoominendatiuns Regarding t
BI-
metallic Question.
Washington, Det;. 6. Secretary Fos
ter today sent to the senate his reply to i
a resolution passed in July last, calling
upon the secretaries lor answers to cer
toin questions relating to the finances
and financial policy of the government.
The document is a lengthy one. Ou the
question of bimetallism ..the secretary
says:
"In my judgment, it is impossible to
establish any ratio whatever between
gold and silver which would perma
nently or for any great length of lime
preserve a substantial equivalency be
tween she coins of the two metals except
on one of the following conditions:
First, iWus probable that a limitation or
su pension vii the coinage of silver in the
United States might accomplish this
purpose; second, the adoption bv the
United States and the principal coun
tries of Europe of a monetary conven
tion similar to the Latin union before
the countries composing it, limited the
coinage to silver. " I am of the opinion
that the bimetallism system adopted by
the United States nnder the administra
tion of President Washington, by the
law Af April 2d, 1793, and readjusted
and maintained under Iheadruinislra
tion of President .Jackson, and by the
law of Jnne 'J8ih, 1834, and January 18th,
1837, cannot again, without the co-operation
of the principal countries of
Europe, be established in this country
ou a stable bais any way." '

la- Slowly.
Spraoux, Wash., Dec. 6. The trial of
W. C. Eddon for the murder of Peter
Myers last spring is progressing slowly.
Three days were consumed in selecting
a jury. Each candidate was asked
whether he was an Odd Fellow and he
was excused on an affirmative answer.
Eddon is an Odd Fellow and Judgp
Mount is also oue. He absented hin.-
self on this account. The ante-mortem
statement of Myers, the testimony of
Mrs. Meyers and the attending doctor,
Burrell C. Nygard, who was present
when Myers made his will, and Car
letch, the only "eye witness, have been
receiverj. uie case will probably not
go to the jury before Saturday.

ftlLVES TOOK A FALL.
Silver Certltrnates at New1 York Sold at
82.
New York, Eec. 5. Although noth
ing was announced in this city today
from the silver conference except the
withdrawal of the Rothschild plan, pri
vate London cables to bankers reflected
little belief in any agreement. There
was a sudden rush to sell silver bullion
certificates on the stock exchange and
200,000 and 300,000 ounces sold at a de
cline of 2 cents an ounce, the heaviest
break, since last spring. The low price
of silver today is only half a cent per
ounce above the lowest price on record.

Lyitig: Awake Night.
Telegram. - Now is the time whtn
members of the next legislature are
lying awake nights conjuring up scheni-
by -which they, can make themselves
famous. In the day-time they are de
voting their spare energies to drafting
bills which will bear their names, a: d
possibly liecoine laws. Who the man
who is equal to the registry -law qn--.
tion? That's a vital query thai friends
of an honest ballot want to see answered.
Queer world! Queer people! Here are
men and women by thousands suffering
from all sorts of diseases, bearing all
manners of pain, spending their ail on
physicians and "getting no better, but
rather worse," when right at hand
tnere's a remedy which says it can hi-ip
the. a because it's helped thousands like
them. "Another . patent-medicine ad
vertisement," you say. Yes but not o
tSieordinary sort. The medicine is Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and
it's different, from the ordinary nos
trums in this: - . ,
It dons what it claims to do, or it cost
you nothing!
The way is this: You pay your drug
dist $1.00 for a bottle. Yon read the
directions, and you follow them. You
get better or yon don't. If you do, you
buy another bottle, and perhaps an
other. If you don't get b.-tter, you get
your money back. And the queer thing
is that so many people are willing to be
Bick when the remedy's so near at hand.

It Would be Exceedingly Inappropriate

WHAT MRS. LEASE THINKS
She Favors a Country Dunce, but ' is
Dead Set"' Against any Low-Meek
or Swallow-Tail Affair.
Topkka, Kan., Dec. 7. It had been
proposed by the people here to have an
inaugural ball when Governor-elect
T ....l 1 : T .. 1 : : 1 . . 1
governor opposed it, and a mass meeting
of populists called to decide upon the
inaugural ceremony adopted these reso
lutions lost night : ,
"Resolved, That the recent political
victory was won by the plain people of
Kansas, and was a victory against mam- "
mon worship in all its forms was, in
truth, but one battle in the iriepressible
conflict between the people and that
greed which finds its most luring expo
nent in society, with its ostentatious
display of power to spend -money for
trifles, while those who have earned it
starve. Inaugural ceremonies carried
on by fashionable society, and under its
ostentatiousness of dress and expense,
would b exceedingly inappropriate and
highly distasteful to all friends of genuine
social and political reforms; and further
"R"Solved, That the plain people of
Kansas, who elected the new state offi
cers, cannot look bnt w th arixietv nrmn
any indication that the officers have sub- ,

Frank H. Herald, a populist . legisla

favored a country dance, but was "dead
set against any lowz-heck and swallow-'

Will be Just Half nf the Present Ronnd
-trlp Cost.
San Francisco, Dec. 7. T. H. Good
man, general passenger ' agent of the
Southern Pacific company, who has jnst
returned from a conference of passenger
officials at Chicago, says that, while
nothing definite was decided upon at the
conference about the fare to the Chicago
world's "fair, it was certain that the.
round trip from here would be 70,
which is the present single fare. His
company had already informed corres
pondents in China, Japan, Central and
South America and elsewhere that such
would be the rate, and the company
would stick to its promises in that re
spect. Mr. White, of the Santa Fe, was
aHso in favor of the same rate, likewise .
Mr. Fee, of the Northern Pacific was in
favor of making the price of a single trip
the cost of the round trip from all points
west of the Missouri river. He thought
that all the western Hues were in favor
of the $70 rate from b-re. -
