act.
The mayor said that some property
owners on residence streets desired to
replace the old wooden sidewalks with a
four-foot asphalt walk, with two leet of
gravel or cinders on each side, and de
sired favorable legislation by ordinance
permitting them to construct such a
walk. No action, but council was favor
able. Nolan moved that crave! be

AN IMPORTANT MEETING.
The Cow Ordinance to Be Enforced.
The marshal informs us that the cow
ordinance will be strictly enforced from
today. Owners of all cows who have
been in the habit of allowing them to
roam about the streets will act the part
of wisdom by hereafter keeping them
confined. The' loose cows have been a
source of great annoyance all summer.
There is one that has run after children
several times. Many of them can open
a gate as quickly as the owner and often
injure gardens, lawns and trees. The
increasing duties of the marshal, espe
cially since the office of. street commis
sioner ba merged into it, has rendered it
impossible for that official to rundown
and impound cows. Saturday nightjthere-
fore, the council took suitable action in
giving the marshal authority to hire an
assistant to do this work, the fees to pay
for the service.
A PLAIN TALK TO WORKINGMEN.
Mrs. Turner's JJody.
The body found in the river Saturday
proved to be that of Mrs. Turner. The
fisherman' who discovered it floating
took it for a, sturgeon, but. rowing to it
found it was a human body. : He was
unwilling to secure it then, but going to
Hood River told Mr. Winans', and both
returned for it. It was fastened with a
rope and the coroner summoned. The
water had preserved the body very well,
and but for the face being bloated looked
very natural. The clothes, shoes and
stockings showed no evidences of wear,
except the sleeve9 of the dress, which
were missing. The arms were spread
widely apart.' A coffin was taken to the
riverside and the body placed therein
and taken to The Dalles. The deceased
was buried yesterday morning adjoining
the grave of. Mrs. Whittaker.
Tne IMscovery saved Bis Life.

live. . Having Dr. King's New Discovery
in my store I sent for a bottle and began
its use and from the first dose began to

. Th ABC of tne Silver Question.
Let us not get mixed up -with com
plex matters in connection with the free
silver idea.
- Let us not befog our brain 'with ar
guments about the crime of 1873 or
bother with the many theories which
the advocates of free silver are giving us.
But let us take a common sense view
of the situation.
Now, to start with:
: Suppose Bryan was elected " and the
free coinage act had been . passed and
that free coinage was an actual fact.
Suppose that silver could be taken to
the mint and coined into silver dollars
at the ratio of 16 to 1.
How would that affect us?
We haven't got any silver bullion.
; A whole lot of people who own silver
mines have it, and so they could have
it coined into 16 to 1 dollars, but not
having any ourselves we could not have
a solitary, single dollar coined under the
free silver act.
: Now, suppose, however, that ' all the
silver mine owners and others who had
silver took it all to Washington or Phil
adelphia or to some other United States
mint and had it coined into 16 to 1
dollars, and . ' ' ' ' '
Suppose so much had been coined that
all the silver in ' the' world was made
Into 16 to 1 dollars, and . ;
Suppose that every one of these dol
lars was piled in one heap right on the
next block, and
Suppose every single one of them was
worth 100 cents here and everywhere.
What good would they do us unless
we had something we could trade by
which we could get one?
Well, we have something' to trade.;
everybody has. -
Some have labor, bo much for a dollar.
Some have lumber, so much, for a
dollar.'
Some have sugar or potatoes or hams
or coal or something else, all so much
for a dollar.
We have advertising and subscrip
tions, so much for a dollar.
When we want one of those silver
dollars, we cannot go and take it. They
don't belong to us. They belong to the
men who took the silver to the mint to
ba coined.
If we took one, it would be stealing.
- If we asked for one for nothing, it
would-be begging.
If the owners gave us one for nothing,
it would be a gift.
If we borrowed one, it would cost us
interest, and so
Most of us, to get one, must trade la
bor, lumber, sugar, coal, advertising or
something to get it.
This is absolutely and honestly so,
isn't it? , v , .
Well, being eo, why do we take any
chances on the dollar?
We can get gold now.'
It is worth 100 cents on a dollar
everywhere.
So we have supposed the silver to' be,
but . . - '
Suppose it isn't.
What then?
Wh'it is the uso of taking a chance
unless we can do better? A silver dol
lar won't be worth more than 100 cents,
will it?
We are getting that now.
Let well enough alone. "
Some say duty compels a Democrat to
back up and vote for a Democrat You
have Bryan's word that he is no Demo
crat. Let him deny that he said it.
Some say it is pretty bad now. We
might as well take a chance. It can't
be worse.
What kind of tomfoolery is this?
Are things bad in a business way?
" Let us tell you something to try.
Vote down this crowd of repudiators.
Tell the world in. -trumpet tones in
November that we want the best money,
that we will take no other, and business
will revive. ' 1
Let the capital out that Bryan and
his followers have scared tinder cover,
and prosperity- will come. Lumber
