WHISKY CASES.
There are two or three Indians in
town who do nothing but stand on the
street corners, acting as decoys to catch
some unsuspecting white man and in
duce him to sell them whisky that they
may profit by the United States law
allowing fees to deputy marshals for
selling liqnor to Indians. This matter
is by no means new. It is not related
for originality, but in the hope that by
continually prodding away at it, the
offensive law may be wiped from the
statute books or nullified by other course
of action. It is much better for the
state to make some political beneficiary
gift of $800 or $1,000 a year, than to
entrap unfortunate and weak-minded
specimens of humanity into the com
mission of a crime by a deliberate and
cunning pitfall, to accomplish the same
end.. The abuse of this law is most
notorious, and conceded by citizens and
officials alike. Nine times out of ten the
purpose is deliberate.- No other law is
violated so often as this. Larceny is the
most common crime in all sections, but
at Pendleton and The Dalles there are
ten liquor cases to one of larcenv. The
law reeks with rottenness. A responsi
ble party said yesterday that at Pendle-
ton it has been the custom to hire tramps
to violate this law, the tramp being re
paid by a free pass to Portland and board
and lodging without work. There is one
way to nullify the possibilities of this
repugnant law in The Dalles, and that is
for the city council to enforce a custom
they once did enforce prohibit an In
dian from being within the city limits
after the hour of 6 o'clock. This would
have a eood effect and render these
whisky-to-Indians cases much less fre
quent. '
A Salem paper, in announcing the
names of the several persons as 'probable
candidates for governor, mentions ex
Gov. Moody, "of The Dalles." Mr.
Moody resides in Salem, not in The
Dalles. He has business in this city
and visits it occasionally.
A Virginia judge has made a decision
that may be of interest in this section.
He decided that a man who bought lots
in a boom town on the promise that
large industrial plants were to be located
there, is entitled to the return of his
money because that promise was not
fulfilled.
The actions of the democracy at
Washington of late seem to partake of
the desperation of a losing game. In
dividuals of the party, like Bland, lose
their patience and fly off the handle.
Whom the gods would destroy they first
make mad. The Pennsylvania returns
the other day serve that purpose admir
ably. .
Bland, the Missourian, disgraced the
halls .of congress yesterday by his vin
dictive speech against Hie enforcement
of the house rules, which contemplate
securing a quorum. The galleries, gen
erally ready to applaud anything of a
sensational nature, whatever its drift,
were mute with surprise and indigna-
tion. We can understand something of
the spirit of Christ, weeping over the
fall of Jerusalem, when considering the
lamentable retrogression that has been
made in congress since the days of the
early patriots. When the destinies of
this republic were trembling in the bal
ance, the spirit of resisting commercial
and social tyranny to Great Britain
prompting Washington, Jefferson, Frank
lin and his colleagues to hazard their
lives on the result, how mortified muBt
they have felt on this particular holiday
if they could have peered far enough in
the future to observe this fire-eating
Missourian defying the rules of the
. house, and when he had deplorably
called lortn pnysical lorce Dy tnat op
position, said that the procedure was
but to invite anarchy. It is pleasure to
note that if he did invite anarchy, the
invitation was not accepted. Bland was
treated with silent contempt and was
ordered to his seat.

HIGHTS OF ANIMALS.
Horses . In Germany Must Not Be
Insulted.
Dogs In Belgium Most Have Seats In
Trains Pampered Life of the German -Student's
Corps-Dogs Better
Treated Than Children.
While it is unfortunately true .that
child life is infinitely happier in the
semi-barbaric orient and even in the
wilds of Africa than in the most highly
civilized portions of Europe and Ameri-
writes "Ex-Attache" in ne riew
York Tribune, yet the enlightenment
and progress of the west, -while they
conrn to earrv in their train fresh in
genuity of infant torture, lead on the
other hand to a very marked improve
ment in the treatment of animals.
These are subjected by orientals to
much the same horrible cruelty as the
children of the white races so often
suffer at the hands of their parents,
relatives and seniors in general. But
in Europe and America domestic ani
mals are gradually acquiring an im
portance and a consideration undream
ed of save in those olden times -when
they were worshiped as gods or adored
as saints.
On some future occasion I hope to be
permitted to draw a contrast in these
columns between child life in orient
and child life in the Occident, and to
demonstrate from personal experience
the superiority of barbarism to civili
zation in that one particular. But for
the present I will content myself in
dealing with the vast improvement in
the treatment of our dumb friends,
whom stranrrers might often be
tempted to believe enjoy the prefer
ence over our children.
No one has ever heard of a man be
ing imprisoned for apostrophizing a
child with some coarse, contemptuous
or insulting epithet, yet only a short
time ago the" Berlin press contained the
record of a sentence of tnree wmks
imprisonment imposed on a stableman
employed in the imperial mews of Pots
dam, for having addressed an insulting
epithet to a favorite mare belonging to
the kaiser. Although this is the first
instance known of a man being actual
ly sentenced in a regular judicial way
to imprisonment for the use of insult
ing language to a horse belonging to
the state, yet. I have often seen troop
ers in crack cavalry regiments of Eu
ropean armies taken severely to task
and threatened with punishment for
talking roughly to their mounts, the
welfare of which is a subject of infi
nitely greater solicitude to the officers
than that of the men. For the horse is
worth so much to the national treasury
in cold cash, which the trooper is not,
at any rate in the countries where mil
itary service is .obligatory; ana, more
over, the advancement and promotion
of the commanding officer depends, as
a rule, far more upon the physical con
dition of the horses of his regiment
.than, of its men.
This beinar the case, no one need be
astonished to hear ot one of the lead
ing Austrian sportsmen. Count Paul
Festetics,' bringing legal proceedings
against a Viennese sporting paper for
having referred in a slighting mann
to his race-horse Thalan3 the insult
consisting in a remark to the effect
that though the mare had won certain
takes she did not deserve to take
them, owing to the .fact that her com
petitors had run so badly as to deprive
the victory of every atom of glory or
merit. Tnis is hardly a grave insult,
out the count thought otherwise and
demanded a printed apology on behalf
of bis mare, failing which, be has .insti
tuted the legal proceedings referred to.
It remains to be seen whether he will
obtain a decision in his favor, and no
one need be astonished if during the
course of the proceedings the mare her
self is subpoenaed as a witness.
In Belgium the ' government, which
owns and controls the entire railroad
system of the country, has just issued
a decree which, as far as railroad trav
el is concerned, places the dog on ex
actly the same level as a grown-up
man or woman, ana mnniteiy nigner
than a child. For whereas the latter is
entitled to half a place if under twelve
years of age. a dog has now a right to
a full seat, providing he has his ticket.
That is to say in compartments li
censed to hold ten travelers, if there
are eight adult human beings and two
dogs in the compartment, the latter is
regarded as "complete, and no other
passengers are .admitted, and if the
train happens to be full, partly with
dogs and partly with human beings,
any additional passengers will have to
be left behind rather than that the dogs
should be forced to-yield up their seats.
The government decree, however, son-
tains no intimation as to the manner
in which the canine travelers are ex
pected to conform to the regulations
which prohibit passengers from puttmg
their feet on the cusHions; and it must
be admitted that the seats of railroad
carriages as at present constructed are
not suited to the dog s style of repose.
Inasmuch, however, as the govern
ment has already given him the prefer
ence over children by according to him
an entire seat, instead of merely half
of one,' it is quite within the bounds of
possibility that it . may in course of
time be brought to modify the cars in
such a manner as to add to the comfort
of the canine passenger at the expense
of the human traveler.
Floating; Cities.
The modern American man-of-war is
a little world in itself, or perhaps more
properly a floating city, with its in
habitants of many trades and profes
sions. Not only is there a doctor to
dose you and a chaplain to care for
your spiritual welfare, but many cooks,
several carpenters, SKilled machinists,
electricians, tailors, musicians and
barbers. There is at least one clever
sailorman told off as ship's writer,
which office corresponds closely to the
old-fashioned scrivener. It thus hap
pens that one can have almost any
thing made aboard ship, from an en
grossed copy of a complimentary reso
lution to a complicated piece of ma
chinery or cabinet work.
NEWS OF THE STATE.
The Wells-Fargo has bought the
greater part of the stock in. the Com--mercial
National bank of Portland, and
will largely increase, the capital stock.
Ex-Treasurer S. F. Murphy at Baker
City was convicted yesterday of larceny
of public money. He was short in hia
accounts $4,110. The jury was out 20
hours and recommended the prisoner to
the mercy of the court. .'
Judge Bellinger ,fn the United States
court, yesterday, morning notified the
district attorney that he would not here
after sentence persons pleading guilty
to selling liquor to the Indians on an in
formation, but would hold them to the
United States grand jury, and if indicted
and found guilty would sentence them
to a long term of imprisonment in the
penitentiary. -
Curious Flowers.
The Brazilian flower known as the
running antelope" is so called be
cause its white petals have a series of
well-defined, dark-colored lines and
dots in which the imagination can
readily trace the form of an antelope
with its limbs outstretched and head
thrown back, seemingly' fleeing for its
life. In the "caricature plant." one
species has the imitative form on the
petals, and another has it outlined in
the ribs and shading or the leaves.
This last mentioned curiosity bears a
remarkably well-executed likeness of
the duke of Wellington, and has on
that account been named "Arthur and
His Nose." Among the. orchids the
imitative form is entirely different in
character, being exhibited in the shape
of the flower itself. Some are exact
counterfeits of bees, butterflies, moths,
etc., while others take upon themselves
the form of worms and beetles.
Naturalists believe that in the first in
stance it is nature's trap to lure other
bees, moths and butterflies, but in the
case of the worm and beetle orchids
or those that are exact counterparts of
toads, lizards and huge spiders, they
do not attempt to explain.

Co., W. Va., appreciates a good thing

The Best Medicine.
J. O. Wilson, Contractor and
Builder, Sulphur Springs, Texas,
thus speaks of -fl-yer's Pills:
" Ayer's Pills are the best medicine I
ever tried; and,, in my judgment, no
better general remedy could be devised.
I have used them in my family and
recommended them to my friends and
employes for more than twenty years.
To my -certain knowledge, many cases
, of the following complaints have been
completely and .
Permanently Cured
by the use of Ayer's Pills alone: Third
day chills, dumb ague, bilious fever,
sick headache, rheumatism, flux, dys
pepsia, constipation, and hard colds. I
know that a moderate use of Ayer's
Pills, continued for a few days or weeks,
as tha nature of the complaint required,
would be found an absolute cure for the
disorders I have named above."
" I have been selling medicine for
eight years, and I can safely say that
Ayer's Pills give better satisfaction
than "any other Pill I ever sold." J. J.
Perry, Spottsylvania C. H., Va.
