If a boat is libeled the witnessed are the one who receive the punishment. While the rich corporation eludes justice in the ourts on the high oinciat at n a-iu- mgton remits their hues. While the witnesses earn the ill will of the company as well as the con tempt of the August cour), because they have sought to prevent viola tions of law and guard against disasters which so frequently occur on overcrowded excursion boats. The lav also in opium seizures, is inoperative, because the man who risks his own lile, and wastes his time in exposing violatiors of the revenue laws very seldom receives an v reward for his watch fulness. Yet every day Die successful smuggles carries on his nelarious trade. Two or three years ago, an Oregon boy was sent irom San Francisco to tctom lor a couple of old valises loaded with opium, which lie brought to rort lard and turned over to the man who was waiting to receive it. A bright and pretty young lady of this city had a little experience that line also which she successfully carried out. But what man is fool enough to waste his time in prosecuting the lady or the boy, for the paltry reward the government officials might chance to give time. The young lady and boy might have been punished winie the real criminal received the price of his crime, and retired from business to enjoy it, and the informer could congratulate him self oil making more trouble than money, law or no law : Several years aao a syndicate shipped several bant Is of dogli.h oil from British Columbia to Portland, but some fellow with more ctirioitv than judgement went to lioring for oil and struck an excellent quality of old rye, the secret leaked out, it took a nice sum of monev to repair the fractured law and let Ine smuggler go into some more honorable and praseworthy busi ness.

SLAV1N WINS AGAIN The Australian Puts Jake Sleep in Nine Rounds. to A IIAltD FOluHt BATTLE. Kilrain Foogbt Plucky, Bat tb Bet er Man Won Immense 8nniiof Money Change Hindi. New York, June 10. The hlavm-Kilrain contest which took place at Ilolmken to-night was the greatest contest of the kind that has taken place in this city or en virons for many yea) s. Not evea4-X7Kok county is becoming noted in the palmiest days of the old Madison Square Garden, where the only John L. Sullivan met all comers and put them to sleep in his own inimitable style, has a match attracted such wide spread notice. Taere was a most as much money wagered on the result of this battle as on the Suburban handicap. Thousands of dollars have been bet. Slavin had a s'ight call in belting, but Kilrain's friends were not backward in tak ingnpliets. A majority of bets nude were that Slavin would not knock Kilrain out in a stipu lated number of rounds. Slavin won in the ninth round. I he contest was a hard one and Kilrain made a game fight. Slavin fought on the agitrcsive. He has a tremendous forearm and hand and got in bis upjiercuts w ith good ell'ect. Kilrain showed himself to be a very clever and game fighter. THE WINNER'S KKCOHb. Slavin made his debut in the prize ring at Chasters Towers, (Jiieensland, in 1SS5, defeating Martin Power in thirteen minutes, Then he beat Tom Burke, the champion of Queensland, knock ing bun out iu four rounds, lie beat Shanahan, of (iympia, in two rounds; S. Burke, of Roekhaiup ton, iu ten seconds; Professor) ISabbs in a round and a half; Bli-:h, the Sydney heavy-weight, iu one round ; Tom Taylor, a pupd of Peter Jackson, in two rounds; Fogarly in three rounds; Mike Dtxiley in eight rounds. Then he fought a draw v ith Costello in a battle lasting two hours and a quarter. Afterwards after many unsm-'essful efforts to 'e'. another fight, he agreed to top Costello in six rounds and failed to do it. lhen lie wan matched to fight Jackson, but having hurt his w rist in the set-to with Costello, lie was forced to lo.-e that honor and the deposit. Then he beat Lang, the heavy weight champion of New Zealand, and Jack Burk, of I mdon, who went Irom America to Australia, in eight rounds. Then he went to London and knocked out Bill ioode in live rounds last October. His "draw" with Jem Smith when the outrageous conduct of Smith's Brummagem heelers dis graced their tavonte forever is lamiiiar to everybody. The fight lasted fourteen rounds, and was all in Slavin's favor. His last fight was with Joe McAuhfle. Joe was knocked out in the second round.

The people of John Dav valley have subscribed several hundred dollars in work to the wagon road fund, w hich will help them wonderfully. Baker Citv has raised, at last accounts froiii there, $000. The little town of nanus gives $350. Prairie Citv has also donated liberally. John Circle came down from Beaver Thursday. He says the weather clerk chanced the order of things somewhat on the head of Beaver last Monday. Instead of a water spout they had a snow spout. A cloud burst occurred there on that date and nearly a foot of snow fell inside of half an hour. Mr. Ciicle savs the snow appeared to come down in almost a solid body, and while it was falling it so completely filled the air that one could not distinguish objects fifty feet away. The latest enake story comes from the Baker Blade which in substance is as follow 8 : "Dr. A. Kiehler, by administering an emetic, removed from the stomach of Mrs. Sager.of Baker City, a snako that was twelve inches long and the largest part of its body was probably one inch in diameter. The shape of the rei t le's bead and the color of its body resembled that of a rattle snake. Mrs. Sager said that she swallowed the snake while drink-, ing from a spring some 15 years ago and consequently thesnake has had a habitation of her stomach for 15 years." We pass. for 'producing big animals. We have big horses, big cattle and big sheep, and now Mike Mulvahill, of Summit prairie, comes to the front with as big a hog as was ever raised in Eastern Oregon. The animal is six feet two inches long, three feet If 'h, measures eighteen inches around the fore leg next to the body, and will when fat weigh 800 pounds. The hog is only a little over two years old, and Mr. Mulvahill thinks he will grow some yet. If anyone in Eastern Oregon has a hog that will en ual this, we would like to hear from him.
