AUGUST 3, 1895
THE JULY DEFICIT.
When the republican party was in
' vited to etep down 'and oat, tbe chief
; reason assigned was that the income of
the government was too great for the
"welfare of tbe nation and tbe surplus
was begetting habits of extravagance.
The monthly debt etatement for July
shows that the reason for patting tbe
affairs of the nation in the hands of
democrats, whose Jacksonian simplicity
would render tbe burdensome taxation
of republican, times unnecessary, no lon
ger exists; the increase of the national
debt for July was only $38,000,000, a
mall matter with Jacksonian demo
crats, but a verv considerable item
. with republicans. The nation has
Vi a 1 fnrt mnph HAmnprstin pprniom v and
, .reduction oi Mien , we uu nut tco nujr
paid enough to materially change the
deficit for July, 1895,) but there is and
has been a great difference in tbe com
merce and industries ever since it was
known for a certainty that the demo
cratic party was to run things.
The nation is ready for another change
and we think the treasury department
is much in need of tbe change that is
surely coming.
The Chicago police have made a most
startling confession, namely, that they
have no evidence strong enough to con
vict Holmes, the man who is more
accused than any in the world just now.
When tbe Chicago police say they have
no evidence to convict an accused, tbe
rest of the world stands still, holds its
breath and waits to hear from San Fran
cisco. Bat no such confession will ever
come from the police department of
Golden Gate city ; it will contract to
furnish testimony to convict anybody or
anything on short notice. It may be
the testimony will not pan out any more
than is now probable in the Durrant
case, but the promise will be made by
the department and the prcsB will cheer
fully make public tbe promised testi
mony. We presume this is all done to
scare would-be criminals.
A JOKE.
.The latest from the seat of the "In
dian war" is that the settlers in the
vicinity regard the whole matter in the
light of a joke and that the men who
massacred the Indiana are fleeing to
Montana. The facttioue settlers want to
get rid of the Indians and hence tbe
whole alarm. This kind of joking may
prove a very serious matter in the futnre
in case of a real danger. The war de
partment does not enjoy that sort of a
joke and is not likely to hasten again to
the aid of that section of country. There
has been a very general feeling among
the people of the Pacific slope, who
know more of tbe Indians than people
East, that this alleged uprising was
greatly exaggerated; and so the facts
prove.
THE WATER COMMISSIONER'S
REPORT.
The public will read with interest the
report of the water commissioner's, pub
lished in yesterday's Chronicle. We
have heretofore heard some complaint
that detailed reports were not published,
and perhaps the local papers have been
to blame in tbe matter more than the
commission. There has elapsed less
man a year since the nrst installment of
water bonds were paid off and yet it ap
pears that there is now on hand nearly
$5000, of which $4500 is drawing 6 per
cent. Our water system is in good hands
and there is no reason why the city
should not meet its obligations for the
water system without feeling the burden.
Public mind regarding the Cascade
.Locks is on such a tension that when
. word came yesterday that the sheds
' were on fire great uneasiness was felt.
For nineteen years the people of Eastern
Oregon have hoped and deepaired and
hoped again for the completon of this
great work and now when the weary
waiting is nearly over the thought of any
disasters, that would prevent or delay
the long looked-for event fills our minds
with dread. The accident yesterday was
trivial, but we are thankful it was no
more. When the day comes that tbe
first boat passes from The Dalles to Fort
land such a about will arise from over
Eastern Oregon that will disturb the
eieepers in neaven.
Messrs. Crawford & Hjde, the attor
neys recently rendered somewhat fam
ous by the newspaper trial of the
Schmidt case have been heard from.
There appears to be two sides to this,
like most other cases, and Senator Dolpb
comes out of the newspaper controversy,
which he saw fit to institute, about as
he came out of tbe trial of tbe case be
fore the courts at the small end of the
horn. Mr. Crawford's history of the
case puts the matter in a very different
light from that in which it appeared to
everybody before his statement.
The safe arrival in San Francisco of
tho Columbia river log raft marks an
era in ocean transportation. Similar
attemps have been repeatedly tried on
yie Atlantic and Pacific but the general
result has been failure and a deep pre
judice on , the part of navigators has
grown- against future attempts. The
danger to ocean commerce from the
breaking of the raft is very great and
sailors look askance at more ventures of
the sanae sort. The -successful ending of
this latest attempt may counteract any
snch feeling and stimulate interest in
log raft navigation. . The ' item of
freight charges will be a not unimportant
inducement as the saving in the present
instance will amount to nearly several
thousand dollars. "
FtaiM for tbe Laad Office
The following from the Antelope
Herald speaks in high terms of the
efficient land office officials :
It is now just about one year since the
new register and receiver took charge of
the United States land office at The
Dalles, and, in juBtice to those officials,
let it be said that the duties of their re
spective offices have never been more
carefully or ably attended to than they
have been during the past 12 months.
We bave heard not a single complaint
of their actions anywhere throughout
the land district so far, and we are sat
isfied, the same record will be main
tained during the next three years.
Hon. J. F. Moore, the register, and Col.
W. H. Biggs, the receiver, make ideal
land officers, and this item will voice
the sentiments of all the settlers through
out The Dalles land district.
N Society
women often feel
the effect of too
much gayety
balls, theatres, and
teas in rapid
saccession find
them worn out, or
"run-down" by
the end of the sea
son. They suffer
from nervousness,
sleeplessness and
irregularities. The
smile and rood
spirits take flight. It -is time to accept
the help offered in Doctor Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription. It's a medicine which
was discovered and used by a prominent
physician for many years in all cases of
female complaint" and the nervous dis
orders which arise from it The " Pre
scription " is a powerful uterine tonic and
nervine, especially adapted to woman's
delicate wants for it regulates and promotes
all the natural functions, builds up, invig
orates and cures.
Many women suffer from nervous pros
tration, or exhaustion, owinfr to congestion
or to disorder of the special functions. The
waste products should be quickly got rid
of, the local source of irritation relieved
and the system invigorated with the "Pre
scription." Do not take the so-called
celery compounds, and nervines which
only put the nerves to sleep, but get a
lasting cure with Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription.
' FEMALE WEAKNESS."
Mre. William Hoover, of Bellville,
Ktcmana to., unto,
writes: " I had been
a great sufferer from
' female weakness ; '
I tried three doc
tors : thev did me
no good ; I thought
I was an invalid for
ever. But I heard
of Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription,
and then I wrote to
him and he told me
i ust how to take it
took eight bottles.
I now feel entirelv
well. I could stand Mrs. Hoover.
on my feet only a short time, and now I do
fell my work for my family of five."
