The Arlington National bank closed
its doora yesterday.
The ferry beat is now making her
landings at the mouth of Mill creek.'
The Regulator brought up another
consignment of cans last night. The
wharf is filled with then.
The freight at the portage was all
cleaned up Monday, so that shipments
now come through from Portland with
out delay.-
The Regulator did not get in last
nigbt until 10:30 o'clock, being delayed
at the Locks, where she took on two
carloads of freight for the O. R. & N.
The pile driver is at work replacing
the trestle acrosB Mill creek. This
should be finished tomorrow. If so, the
road will be open to the other side of
Rowena.
The city recorder had a nice - little
family party of twelve before him this
morning. Seven admitted being drunk,
two were discharged, two had their ex-
animations continued until this evening
and the other fellow - was the glaes
breaker.
As the chances of the Wilson bill be
ing defeated improve the price of wool
- advances. One sale was made today at
nine and one eight cents, the highest
j5tice reached this season. Yesterday
we understand the best price paid was
eight cents. , ' "
Last night a tribe of Improved Order
of Red Men was organized here, consist
ing of some thirty members. The in
etitntion was sadly needed here, as the
present order of red men are not np to
that standard where no improvement
jfcanbe made.
The first through train from the east
arrived this morning at 10 o'clock. The
last gap to the east of ns was closed last
night, and though the road is not in
good condition it is passable, and just as
fast as men can do it, it will be put in
first class shape.
F. M. Schnpert is the name of the
irascible German who smashed the
Umatilla house windows last night
He was up before the city recorder this
morning charged with being drunk and
disorderly, and was given the highest
penalty the recorder had on hand, thirty
days in jail and fifty dollars fine.

Reports from Astoria are to the effect
that another big run of salmon is com
ing. . A single drift with one net yielded
3,300 pounds for one man, while four
others brought in 10,000 pounds. As it
takes the fish about two weeks to reach
this point from Astoria, the run will be
too late to do much good here, the fish
ing season ending August 10th.
We print elsewhere Mr. Condon's
statement that the Gypsy got through
all right, and-that the passengers en
joyed the trip. Incoming passengers on
the Regulator brought the story here
Monday night that she was tied up at
13-mile point. The presumption is that
they saw the Rowena and mistook her
for the Gypsy. This was quite a natural
mistake, yet it shows ' the fallacy of
jumping at conclusions.
The steward and several of the wait
ers, four in all, from the Dalles City
concluded they would take a bath Mon
day in the warm springs above the lower
Cascades. They took with them sev
eral demijohns for the purpose of bring
ing back some of the water. As the
time for the boat to leave arrived, a
vigorous tooting of the whistles was
kept up for half an hour, but finally the
boat had to pull out and leave two of
them, the other two finding their Tay
back. Yesterday morning, after spend
tbe nigbt in the woods, the others found
their way over the ridge and down to
the Regulator landing. The effects
would not have been worse had the dem-
demijohns contained the pure old bug
juice. . .
A Wild Coxeyite.
Yesterday evening about 8 o'clock,
while a crowd of guests were sitting on
the porch at the Umatilla house, a
sawed-ofF square-built little fellow, evi
dently a German, came out of the office
door with a chair in bis hands and with
out further notice than to "get away,"
swung the chair around and smashed a
window. The gentlemen sitting by the
windows were evidently rattled, for in
stead of stopping the fellow they all got
away while he continued the work of
destruction, until one after another five
of the windows had been broken
Night watchman Gibons happened to be
in the house and rushing out collared
the irate little fiend, who dropped the
chair, and when Ralph gave him one
shake that loosened his joints and
tongue he became very humble, declared
himself a friend of bis and wanted to
shake hands. The whole thing was
done so quickly that those present had
not recovered from their surprise until
Ralph bad the fellow on the way to jail
It seems the man is, or was a Coxeyite,
and has just . been released from the
tamp in Idaho, and was given a pass
over the U. P. to Portland. This, of
course, iid not cover the trip on the
Regulator, and so last night he went
into the telegraph office and asked Mr
Johnson for a pass on the boat. The
latter told him he couldn't give him a
pass, whereupon the Coxeyite said he
would "have to stand the conse
quences," and at once went outside and
commenced work on. the windows. '

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.
Washington, July 20, 1894.
Senator Gorman is not one of the sen
ate conferees on the tariff bill, but he is
credited by the cuckoos with being re
sponsible for the action of the senate
conferees in standing out stubbornly for
the retention of the senate amendments
to the tariff bill and forcing the disa
greement report that has been made to
the house, in the faee of the influence
of Mr. Cleveland and his administra
tion, which has been openly used to
bring about a surrender upon the part
of the senate conferees on aft of the im
portant senate amendments, and par
ticularly upon those putting a ,duty
on sugar, iron and coal. Doubtless
Senator Gorman is perfectly willing to
accept this responsibility, but as a mat
ter of fact he and the few democratic
senators who 'aided him in putting a
duty on iron ore and coal, thus saving
two of our greatest industries from the
utter destruction intended by Mr. Cleve
land and the free traders, are in this
matter merely the representatives of the
great business and industrial interests
of the country, which have plainly in
dicated that as a choice of two evils the
tariff bill as amended by the senate is
far preferable to the original Wilson
bill, to which the democratic conferees
of the house wish to. return. As the
matter looks at this writing the free
traders of the house will have to choose
between accepting the most important
of the senate amendments and no tariff
legislation at this session, and it is not
yet certain which they will take. The
republicans are wide awake and will
take advantage of the situation if an op
portunity be given them. What they
wish' most to do is. of course, to kill the
tariff bill outright, but failing in that.
they stand ready to help keep every
senate amendment which puts a duty on
articles made free by the Wilson bill, or
raises the duty named in the Wilson
bill. Things look very favorable to
their succeeding in the last if they fail
in the first. :
The Bailey bankruptcy bill, which
passed 'the house early thia week, is not
likely to be popular with creditors, as
no matter how hopelessly a man's busi
ness may be involved, he cannot be com
pelled by creditors Jo take any action.
He must do so voluntarily or not at all.
This may be an improvement on no na
tional bankruptcy Ian at all, hut it is
such a small improvement tbat.it is
doubtful whether the senate will ever
pass the bill in its present shape.
The democratic bosses are considera
bly alarmed at the probable defection of
a number of democratic congressmen
from the South. There has been con
siderable talk on the subject, but it was
not until this week that the revolt really
showed its head. Representative Den
son of Alabama, who has been in his
district for a week or ten days, has
written a letter formally announcing
his intentions to leave the democratic
party and to affiliate with the populists,
and others are expected to follow suit,
Republicans are not greatly interested
in the revolt, as the solid south has not
been allowed to play any part in their
congressional calculations, although
they would not object to -any thing that
promised even remotely to bring about
fairer election methods in the ' south,
which can only come after the over

throw of the autocratic authority of the
democratic party in that section. ,
It is easy to tell that this is congres
sional election year by the buncombe
resolutions and bills introduced in con
gress solely for vote-catching purposes.
To this class belongs the joint resolu
tion offered by Senator George, of Miss
issippi, providing for nn amendment to
the constitution of the United States
making eight hours constitute a legal
day's work for all- persons doing manual
labor. How Mr. George's Mississippi
planter friends, who work their "hands"
from "sun up to suu down" all the year,
must appreciate his alleged efforts to
lighten the burden of those engaged in
manual labor.
Senators Gray and Lindsay, the dem
ocratic members of the committee .that
investigated the sugar trust scandal,
placed themselves in very unenviable
positions, when they voted against a re
opening of the investigation, to ascertain
thn truthfulness of a statement asserting
that an original order given by Senator
Camden, of West Virginia, for the pur
chase of a block of sugar trust stock was
in existence; also a photograph of that
order. It but proved the charge that
the democratic members of the com
mittee had never had any desire to un
cover anything reflecting upon demo
cratic senators, although -it did not pre
vent a reopening of the investigation.
Senator Camden swore that he bad
never purchased any 6Ugar stock, and if
it can be proven that he did the com
mittee should lose no time in placing
the facts before tho United States dis
trict attorney in order that the grand
jury may find an indictment for perjury.
United States senators are just as
amendable to law asiother men.
