recovery.

PENNOYER SCORES HOLD-OUTS.
Glvcg a Popnllst Prescription to Cure
Populist Doctrines.
Mayor Pennoyer in a communication
to the Oregonian of the Sth, takes the
Populist, Democrats and others, who re
fused to organize the legislature to task
as follows :
''Will you permit tee to speak briefly
in your paper on a most important mat
ter? A regular session of the Oregon
legislature has been prevented. If this
had been accomplished by an armed
force, it would have been criminnl. If
it had been accomplished by an unorgan
ized mob it would have been alarming.
But is it any the less criminal and alarm
ing when accomplished by chosen repre
sentatives ot the people, who, recreant
to their duty, refused for 49 day3 after
the time set for the commencement of
the sessson, to take their oath of office
and assist in making the required quo
rum in the house? The 27 Populists
and Republican conspirators who thus
struck a treasonable blow at our estab
lished institutions are guilty of s most
grave crime. And those 13 Populists
who, by thus refusing to perform their
duty as legislators, have directly become
instrumental in the appointment of a
monometalic national bank president as
senator from Oregon, can expect to in
herit nothing but pity and'eontempt of
the people. And let me say, in conclu
sion, that if the citizens of Oregon, of all
parties, fail in rebuking this first step
toward the overturning of our civil gov
ernment, already taken, then, indeed,
will our free institutions be destroyed
and liberty will be lost.
SVLVESTEU PeXXOYKK.
No Accounting for Tauten.
Mrs. Simmons, the lady with the five
children, who skipped from Sherman
county with the Graff boy, and after
ward was sent to Portland, where she
tried to put her children in charge of the
Boys and Girls Aid Society, returned to
this city the other day, and yesterday
honored this office with a call. She
seemed delighted with the favorable
press notices she had received, pur
chased a couple of papers containing our
notices of her, and ordered such papers
as contained any further mention of her
sent to her at White Salmon, for which
place- she left this morning. As we
gazed at her prominent nose, self-asserting
mouth, high cheek bones and
little gray eyes, in fact realized the full
enormity ot that countenance, we could
well believe the statement of an ex
change that there were "some peculiar
features in her case," That Sherman
county boy needs to be kept under lock
and key. He would elope with a comic
valentine, or get mashed on Joe Simon.

pointing to foul play. Mr. G. H.
Stevenson, brother of the dead man, is
firm in the conviction that his brother
did not commit suicide, the position of
the gun when iound, ho thinks proves
this. His opinion is indorsed by Mayor
Stapleton, of Vancouver, and others
who attended the inquest, and as the
dead man was in good spirits with no
known reason for the act, the suspicions
of foul play seen to have eomo basis.
