Four people suffering from that tired

morning, explaining just what made
them weary, and in the end they were
fined $5 each, which they will work out.
.The Columbia is still twenty-five feet
above low water mark here. The up

to show, and an addition is being built
to it so that teams can hereafter turn on
that wharf, which will be a great con

Mr. Willis Brown, representing the
Oregon Fruit Union, is in the city, and
engaged in getting a carload of lruit for

considerable interest.
Last evening Marshal Blakeney and
Night Watchman Gibons found a weary
citizen slumbering in a dry goods box
near Harris' corner. In order not to
disturb his dreams, being tender-hearted
people, they just picked the box up
contents and all, and walked up to the
city jug with it. The sleeper was quietly
rolled into a bunk, and the box brought
back and set for another one.

The work of repairing the line has been

to the efforts of Superintendent Borie.

crowd were enjoying the cool even

so that for a few moments no footfall
disturbed the stair, or foot sank ankle
deep in the Persian rugs that cover the
otherwise rugged floor. At 9 o'clock the
crowd still showed no desire of getting
up stairs, and Mr. Lochhead proposed
an adjournment sine Deo, ' which was
unanimously carried. Those present
besides Mr. Lochhead were Mr. Harry

other gentleman and the reporter. It

' The Salem Statesman is one of the
brightest of our exchanges and the copy
we received this morning was certainly
the liveliest, for it contained a small,
but energetic bedbug, with his diminu
tive hide filled with rich red blood,
which he or she had imbibed either in
Salem or on the way up. We are able
to know this because on this side of the
range everybody is blue blooded. After
examining the bug sufficiently to estab
lish the fact that it was a tenderfoot, we
jabbed it in the small of the back with
our mighty shears, spreading its gory
form over the paper and giving color to
the statement that "a horse kicked J.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.
Washington, July 27, 1894.
Republicans have been astonished at
the extent of the demoralization in the
democratic ranks, as exposed by public
confessions of leading democrats during
the past week. The democratic senators
have held two caucuses, but have
reached no more definite conclusion than
to order a renewal of the conference on
the tariff bill, and as three democratic
senators Hill, Murphy and Irby re
fused to attend either of these caucuses
the outlook tor the endorsement of the
conference agreement, even supposing
that one can be reached, is far from
bright. Should those three democratic
votes be cast Against the agreement
tariff legislation at this session would be
deader tan a last year's bird's nest. It
is not believed that any agreement can
get through the house that does not
modify the sugar schedule, not to men
tion coal and iron ore, and the Louisiana
senators have given notice that they will
vote against any agreement that makes
the sugar schedule less favorable to the
sugar planters of their state than it was
when the bill passed the senate.
Mr. Cleveland's attempt to boss the
tariff-smashing job, has made a terrible
mess of it, and Don Dickinson, the man
who is credited with having persuaded
him into it, is getting almost as much
abuse from democratic senators as is
being given to Mr. Cleveland himself.
There are said to be a considerable
number of democrats in the house who
are in favor of accepting the senate
amendments, but if that be true they
are keeping very quiet abont it. The
republicans are very well satisfied with
the situation as it stands. It is entirely
a democratic fight, and will continue to
be such until the conference reports
some sort of an agreement ; then the re
bublicans of both house and senate,
particularly the latter, may have an
opportunity to put in some licks that
may decide the fight, and the opportun
ity will not be lost, if it occurs.
There is more than the misnamed
'raw-materials", at stake in the fieht
between the free trade democrats, headed
by Mr. Cleveland, and the rjrotect-mv-
own-interests democrats, headed by Sen
ator Gorman. Free "raw materials" is
the rallying cry that Mr. Cleveland has
adopted to force bis nomination for the
presidency for . the fourth time by the
democratic party. This fact is fully
known by Senator Gorman and the dem
ocratic senators who are associated with
him, and makes them all the more de
termined that Mr. Cleveland shall not
have his way. Senator Hill is also Jully
cognizant of Mr. Cleveland's little game
and his pretended support of the presi
dent is merely to keep the fight up by
stirring up the Gormanites, whom he
nas bad no love for since their desertion
of him at a critical period dnriner the
Chicago convention, in order that he
may get Cleveland downed and out of
tne way as a candidate. It is well known
that Senator Hill will not vote for the
bill, no matter whether Cleveland or
Gorman wins, as lonsr as the income tax
ia retained therein, and neither side is
likely to strike it out.
Senator Caffery of Louisiana this week
did what the senate investigating com
mittee has so far failed to do rn-oved
that the sugar trust dictated the sugar
schedule of the senate tariff bill. Mr.
Caffery said the schedule was not satis
factory to the Louisiana senators, but
that Senator Gorman compelled them to
choose between it and free sugar as pro
vided for in the original Wilson bill.
A photograph of an order for the pur
chase of sugar stock, signed by Senator
Camdan of West Virginia, is in the pos
session of the senate investigating com
mittee. Mr. Camden claims that his
signature is a forgery : gotten up for
blackmailing purposes, but it seems a
little odd that a comparatively poor
man should have been selected by the
alleged blackmailers when there are so
many rich men in the senate. It is
said that if the committee succeeds in
getting the corroboration testimony, it
has a reason to expect that impeach
ment proceedings again9t Senator Cam
dem, and at least one other democratic
senator, will almost certainly be com
menced, if there are not some resigna
tions. - Cas.

Deafness Cannot be Cared f
By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused bv
catarrh, which is nothing but an in-
named condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarth)
that cannot be cured bv Hall's Catarrh
Cure. 8end for circulars, free.
