AND NO MORE.
Napoleon Davis, police commis
sioner and dictator for the mayor of
Portland, resents the insinuations
that the police commissioners were
"collecting $2000 a month from the
gamblers and others," and indig
nantly says: "I want to say that
this is an infamous falsehood." Of
course as to that this journal is not
informed, and cannot therefore speak;
but it notes that Mr.' Davis' denial is
to the $2000. This does not deny
some (other -smaller sum, say
$1,950. The oversight might have
been caused by the sudden burst of
indignation, which set the lava flow
of speech rolling out of Mr. Davis
mouth, but it leaves the denial un
satisfactory just the same.
Then there is another little thing.
"When Mr. Davis had cooled slightly,
he siid in a fitting peroration : "I
move that Mr. Myers be paid just
what is coming to him, and no more,
Now this leaves the Inference that
had Mr. Myers not stirred the deeps
of Mr. Davis' wrath, that gentleman.
as police commissioner, would .haye
paid Mr. Myers more than "just
what was coming to him and no
more." Commissioners Reily and
Watt heartily applauded this senti
ment, the secretary figured up "just
what was coming to Mr. Myers, and
no more," which was $30, and that
sum was paid him.
Mr. Davis may be correct in all of
his assertions, but there is an uncer
tainty, a 'vagueness, an indefiniteness
of expression in his denying specific
amounts that leaves in the minds of
the weary taxpayers an unexpressed,
and not fully formed, yearning, for
something more specific. As Mr,
Davis is an attorney, he would prob
ably express the idea by saying it
was "immaterial, irrelevant and in
competent, and did not stale facts
sufficient to constitute a defense
The court will give judgment on the
pleadings."
Tom morrow the Oregonian prom
ises the public its lcng-expected min
ing edition. We sincerely hope that
the paper has covered the field as
well as it usually does, and that the
edition will be all that is claimed
for it. Mining in Oregon is only in
its infancy, or at least that is true of
quartz mining, and unfortunately
Portland capital is not taking a
proper interest in this great industry.
There is hardly a paying quartz
mine in Eastern Oregon but is owned
by eastern people, unless, like the
Bonanza, it is owned by people who
discovered or fell heir to the claims
Baker and Grant counties are in the
near future to become magnificent
gold producers, and the Oregonian
will have accomplished a good work
if it induces Portland capital to seek
investment in their mines.
The trial of the Competitor crew
has again been postponed, and that
indefinitely. It is an outrage on
American citizens that should cause
the administration to read the riot
act to Spain. Those men, many of
whom are American citizens, have
been confined in a Spanish dungeon
for a year, and no effort has been
made to force the Spaniards to give
them a trial. The suggestion is nat
ural that the Monterey and Monad
nock would be more useful just now
in front of Moro castle than in Port
land. The New York Journal, comment
ing on Debs anarchistic speech, very
correctly intimates that Mr. Debs is
in no danger from Federal troops,
that his idea of gathering 300,000
people into a socialistic scheme will
result in troubles coming from mem
bers of his community, not from out-'
siders, and closes its comment with
the suggestive statement that "Ka
weah, Altruria and Topolobampo
were not suppressed by troops."
In Ohio the political battle is to
be fought over the money question,
Each party has expressed its prefer
ence for senator, but this cuts but
little figure as the battle royal is the
old matter of 16 to 1. The free
silver craze is dying, but it is ' dying
hard. It will get another knock-out
blow in Ohio in October, and Hanna
will succeed himself as senator.
Under the Dingley bill hides arc
to come off the tree list, and will
have to pay duty. It is estimated
this item alone will yield $6,000,000
a year revenue. Whatever else our
Democratic brethren may think of
the question as to who pays the
tariff, there can be no doubt but that
this $6,000,000 comes out of the for
eigner's hides.

Electric Bitters.
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of a tonic and
and alterative is felt. A prompt use of
this medicine has often averted long and
perhaps fatal bilions fevers. No medi
cine will act more surely counteracting
and freeing the system from the malar
ial poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con
stipation, Dizziness yield to Electric Bit
