The populist theory of money has ' become somewhat modified since the first wild demand for a currency based on wheat, pumpkins and skimmed milk, but some of the perennial greenback fal lacies still hold sway with them. Their . idea is that a money based on the credit of the nation is a good money. This, in one sense, is true, aad that is that the promise of the government to pay is a promise that any or all of us are willing to accept, but to bave that promise ac cepted the government must promise to pay in something besides other promises to pay, and as the money of the world is the final thing in w hich debts must be paid, the promise of the government to pay must be to pay in such money, and that is gold or silver. The first paper currency ever issued possessed this very character, the prom ise to redeem in the world's money, and this promise bas been behind every cur rency issued since. When Don Inigo Lopez de Mendoza, the good count ot Tendilla, found himself besieged at Al bania in 1484, be issued pieces of paper with different amounts expressed upon them, to his soldiers, and he at the same time issued an order that he would punish any tradesman who refused to take them at their face. He promised to redeem these notes as soon as possi ble, and as the people bad confidence in his ability to redeem, as well as his power to punish, they passed as money. No doubt these same notes would haye been taken at par without any promise to redeeirJ, for the reason that the Count would have beheaded those who refused. But in these days, as we have no power to punish, our notes can only be made to pass by the promise to. redeem in the world's money, gold or silver. THE DEMOCRATIC SPHINX. The letter that his excellency Grover Cleveland wrote, indorsing David Ben nett Hill, and urging the New York democracy, the Cleveland style of dem ocracy, to go to his aid, bears all the marks and brands necessary to identify it, as "the letter that never came." Like his prototype, the sphinx, Cleve land with sightless eyes turns his face to the desert, motionless, silent, soulless. Whatever other attributes the president may possess, he certainly has none that will compare with his ingratitude. Fol lowing closely on this trail come egotism and selfishness. Cleveland bas always ' been bigger than his party, in his own estimation and his good opinion of him self remains with him long after the good opinion of others has failed him. If David Bennett Hill had been as small of soul as Grover Cleveland, that ob streperous chunk of obesity would never have warmed the' presidential chair. Cleveland's action towards Hill and the democratic party in its hour of need is the acme of ingratitude. It is the child repudiating its father, the cur biting the band that fed it. the snake striking the bosom that warmed it into life, the son driving the dagger through "the breast that gave him nourishment. Democrats will find a place in history for this prince of ingrates. From a democratic stand point he will be classed with Benedict Arnold and Judas Iscariot, and over his political grave, where he lies buried be yond the hope of resurrection morn, will appear that curse of Hafed's, which he so boldly pilfered. Mr. Allen Calif, formerly of this city, married in the East some five or six weeks ago, and brought his bride West to his home in Portland about two weeks ago. As a welcome home he bas been sued for breach of promise, by Miss Louie Tillock, a young lady of sixteen sweet summers and as many sugar-' coated winters, who claims ten thousand dollars for disjointed affections, blasted hopes and unrequited love. There is no telling what the next Dalles boy will do, but as it is The Dalles innings, we are prepared to chronicle anything without surprise. The Euccess that has attended the use of Dr. J. H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Lin ament in the relief of pain and in curing diseases which seemed beyond the reach of medicine, has been truely remarkable. Hundreds supposed to be crippled for life with arms and legs drawn up crook ed or distorted, their muscles withered or contracted by disease have been cured through the use of this remedy.

At this point the prosecution rested their case and tbe prisoners waived de fense. This placed Justice Davis under the necessity of binding them over till the grand jury could act on their cases. The defense moved to have the bail re duced from $5000, which was the original amount. After hearing the arguments. Justice Davis placed the bail of each at $3000, except Klein whose bail is kept at $5000. Gibons filed his bond with his father and John Harden as sureties. Savage has not yet obtained bondsmen. Public opinion is varied regarding the strength of evidence presented by the prosecution. It i9 a question how much weight Klein's statement will have with the jury. . It is safe to say that no case in Wasco county has ever elicited the in terest this has. The First National bank robbery a few years ago did not do so as neither the amount stolen was as large nor the prominence of the parties so great. PROPERTIES OF THE RUBY. Recent Interesting Discoveries Regarding the Crystals of Corundum. The chief scientific interest of the ruby corundum flows from the ex traordinary peculiarities of structure that it presents, as well as from the mysterious qualities that determine its striking- color, says the Jewelers' Cir-. cular It is found in. crystals of great variety of shapes, but all having1 a tendency to the peculiar habit of growth, known to crystallographers as "twinning1." . By testing crystals of corundum with polarized ligbt its structure is found to be wonderfully complex, and under the microscope its exterior face is covered with a strange network of sculpture, indicative of molecular changes. But probably the most interesting' thing about the corundum crystal is the fact that it is nearly always found to have inclosed and surrounded some foreign body or other which lies imprisoned in its midst. Stranjrer still is the fact that those "included" foreign bodies lie generally disposed in planes meet ing each other at an angle of sixty de grees, the result being to produce the phenomenon of "asterism," which is the term given to the white star of light whiah is observable on . certain jewels cut with a rounded ' surface. Very frequently the imprisoned body is a minute bubble of gras or drop of liquid, containing sometimes little crystals of its own. The microscopic cavities containing these thirgo are often very numerous. For a long time the nature of the gas and fluid con tained in the cavities remained a mys tery. The English philosopher, Brews ter, was induced to investigate the subject by hearing that a ruby which an Edinburgh jeweler had placed in his mouth had exploded while in that position, with - unpleasant rer.ults. Other investigators followed, and it has now been made certcin that the fluid is no other than liquid carbonic acid gas, reduced to that, condition by being under great pressure. SACRED RIGHTS OF PROPERTY. An English Cnratea Salt for Trespass in "Hta" Churchyard. A curious fact has been brought to public notice in England by the con duct of Rev. John Valiancy, perpetual curate of Rosliston, who in the Burton county court prosecuted the daughter of one of his parishioners for trespass ing in "his" churchyard and damaging1 "his" hay, by visiting her sister's grave and placing flowers thereon. For this outrage on the sacred rights of proper ty he claimed damages to the amount of one shilling and sixpence, lie con tended.saysthe New York Evening Post, that the churchyard was his private property and that no one had a right to go into it without his permission. He cut the hay and stacked it in his yard, and had by a formal notice interdicted the defendant from damaging the crop by trimming the grass over her sister's grave, which had been dona for three years. When the young lady persisted in visiting the grave he follovrcd her, took hold of her, and, with a contempt uous remark upon the flower."; which she had placed there, knocked thera off the grave with his stick. The reverend suitor lost his case because he was cnly a perpetual curate. Had he been a rec tor he could have recovered. A Lon don newspaper in commenting upon the case says: "By two sentimental fic tions the churchyard ia God's acre; and the church, the national or the people's church. But in dry law God's acre is the incumbent's freehold, and the only right of the people in the .'national' churchyards is the right to be buried there. 'The rude forefathers of the hamlets,' the Village Hampdens,' and all the rest, whe"n once laid to sleep, merely serve the purpose of enriching the soil which produces the parson's hay crop, and their posterity may only visit their graves subject to the permis sion and convenience of the lord of the soil." Charities in London. The income of merely the principal charitable institutions having' their headquarters in London amounts ; to over 7,0;)3.000 per annum, or Coj.OOO, 000. That represents a sura erir.nl.to half the whole capital invested" in -the Bank cf E-vkiad.

If there is .added to this sum the income of the smaller charities the total benevolence paid voluntarily in the metropolis does not fall short of 10,000,000 sterling, or 850,000,000. .
