Merely A Spectator. J. Stewart Lewis
at one time, not long since, lived about the
Dalles. He was charged wih l.eing in the
horse-stealing business, and notwithstanding
an urgent request for him to remain here,
his feelings were so deeply wounded by this

good officers the law is all sufficient for the
apprehension and punishment of law-break

need, and there need be no fear, of vlgildnce

Too Small to .be Noticed. Heretofore
certain predatory members of tbe Bloody
Fourteenth have confined tbem-elvcs to petty
thefts, too small to entitle them to. more
than three months in the county jail. The

over the niaik, and stole an eigbt-day clock,
valued at $40. He is now in confinement at
Fort Dulles, and will shortly be turned over
to the civil authorities for trial. He ought
to be sent down for a year, and each day
ought to be as longt as an eight-day clock can
