his lDdoiserueo's for the window gias
companies and the brass and iron works

I can see plainly that id settling my
affairs through the courts, thus com pell
iDtr my ans.ts to bo reduced to CB-h, a
arge sacrifice will he made. This being
so, I cannot give enroarnsemeo' that my

concerns wHb which I am connected are
on a sound basis, except possibly Divis
& Foter. They have a surp'us ot $80.

just to mttelf tosy that I wo thing

business occasionid by a devotion to
politics, the other n over z-aluus desire

that at my time of lite I ought toindu'ge
in the hope of being abio to repair n.y
fortunes an I pav my deb's, but that I
shail trv, and it will be tbe end for
which I shall live.
The governor craves the generous
judgment of the public and estimates

The Bask failures.
Washington, May 27 Tbe recent
bank failures occupied tbe attention of
tbe cabinet yesterday, and were tbe sub
ject ol a full free discussion. Tbe gen
eral opinion was expressed that a Sep
tember session of congress would do much
to improve tbe general financial sana

advisability ot ls-uing tbe customary
proclamation before many days It is
believed that the appearance of a procla
mat ion won id do much to restore gen
eral confidence, ind eating the intention
of the administration to make every ef
fort to correct the evils wbicb, it is said,
are tbe legitimate outcome of ill-advised'
and ii.jonoua legislation.

IS MEMO EI AM,
Communicated.
Mr. Li. Staley, who died at Wamic, May
12th was a native of Virginia, and was
sixty four years old last April. He was
ban d without the intervention ol the
Christian clergy. It was his request to
havs a secular funeral, and bis friend, Mr.
S. B. Driver, with whom he had lived for
the past eight years, tally complied with
his request.
Tbe following obituary was read by L D.
Driver:
My friends, an honorable heart has ceased
to beat; a doer of generous deeds has
reached the silent baven that all the dead
have reached, and where the voyage of life
must end.
And we, his friends, who even now are
hastening after him, have met to do tbe
last acts that man may do for' man. To tell
hit virtues and to lay with tenderness and
tears his ashes in the sacred place of peace
and rest.
In tbe multitude of blind followers in tbe
monotony of subservience, nothing is more
inspiring tbau a free and independent man
one who gives and asks reasons, one who
demands free.lom and gives what he de
mands; one who refuses to be a slave or a
master. Such a man was Mi. Staley, to
whom we are paying the tribute of love aod
respect. He was an honest man. He gave
the rights he claimed. '
This was the foundation on wbicb be
built to think for himself. Tnis was, to
him, not only a privilege, not only a right,
but a duty and a joy.
By the grave of man stands the angel of
silence. A heart breaks and man dies; a
leaf falls in the forest a babe is born, and
the great world sweeps on.
No one can tell which is tbe better life
with its gleams and joys, its shadows, its
wreaths, its thorns and crowns; or deatb
with its peace, its rest, its cool and pleasant
brow that bath within no memory, no fear
of grief or pain.
Some may censure the last act of this
noble man, but I do not. AU who knew
him I think will say with me "He was
jataifiable. He sought and found that rest
which was so ruthlessly denied by a cruel
providence."
Farewell dear friend. The world is better
for your life. The world is braver for your
death.
Farewell, we loved you living, and we
love you now.

- Grant county exchange: We are informed
that the sheep meu of Hamilton aod vicinity
saved 80 per cent of their lambs. Shearing
has commenced and tbe fleece will fall short

him arrested. After heanog the testimony
the justice dismissed the case and charged
the costs to the one making the complaint.
We have conversed witb several stock
men iu regard to the future outlook of stock
and stock interests of this county, says tbe
Prineville News, Tbe prevailing opinion cf
several seema to be that the present prices
pud for sheep must necessarily become
1 iwer and that the price of cattle will in
crease. While no particular reasons were
given for tbe theories advanced, yet tbe
opinions as given seem to be general.
Mra. J. G. Wilsoo, of this city, has been

no one is better able to speak on this theme,
as she came to Oregon in 1851, and has an
intimate knowlege of many interesting
eventa of pioneer days. Mrs. Wilson is a
lady of great intelligence, and her address
will be very interesting.
An exchange says: Farmers who produce
nothing but a little grain or bay hive noth-,
mg but a little grain or bay. Having noth
ing to sell bat a little grain or bay, tbey
have no other way of getting money. Hav
ing no other supply of money they feel their
poverty and claim tbe right to growl at tbe
government, tbe state, the weather and
every other thing and person, their wives
and children included. To remedy this
they should euter upon diversified farming,
and raise more bogs, sheep, cattle, horses
and poultry, and in a short time they will
wonder why tbey kicked at anybody or
anything except themselves.
Prineville Netos: Most of the horse grow
ers of this couoty complain that there is no
market for their animals tbat they cannot
dispose of their horses at anything like
reasonable figures. The truth is that only
a comparatively few men engsged in this
business in this county raise tbe right kind
ot stock." Tbe small no-purpose horse is
bard to sell at any price Nobody wants
him. The wel'-bred draft horse sells readily
at a f auly good price. There is a constant
demand for his use. -So also will a well-
bred driving horse sell. And ho will sell
for all he is worth. The market ia not so
much at fault. It is tbe grower of scrubs.
Mr. Geo. P. Morgan came up from tbe

are about 13U men at work now, taaing
stone from the quarry and preparing it for
its position in the walls ot the canal. This
stone it the best in quality of any that has
been used, and there is an inexhaustible
supply. An electns plant is being con
stracted, so that work ou be continued
day and night as soon as the water recedes.
The Day brothers are giving every indica

Last night there was quite a variety of
occupants at tbe oity jail, a hobo, a
"drank," and a pugilist. They spent the
lonely hours of darkness inside prison bars,
and this morning were interviewed by the
recorder, who, after bearing tbe evidenoe
in each case, imposed a fine commen
surate witb the offense. Tbe hobo bad
calmly surveyed tbe extent and limits of
tne city, witb no other intent than to take
life a eas ly aa possible, while tbe "drunk"
bad imbibed stimulating fluid, until reason
bad become temporarily unbalanced and his
idea of life was having a jolly, good time,
aod the pugilist had exercised tbe "manly
art of self-defense" in such a manner that
bis closed band bad come in violent contact
with tbe "human fare divine" of a belliger
ent neighbor. These w. re oriines for wbicb
tbe city ordinances had provided penalties,

Tbe case of Beck may come up for trial

that of Taylor, at Antelope, for shooting
Lai Tai, the Chinaman. Taylor was ar

- Shooting at Antelope.
Ochooo Review.
On Friday of last week Ervm Taylor an
dertook to settle tbe Chinese question in
the town of Antelope by attempting to kill
Lai Tai, the Chinese hotel keeper of that
place.' It seems that Lai Tai and Taylor
had some trouble several weeks ago over a
board bill, and on Friday evening Taylor
concluded to annihilate the Mongol. He
went to the dining room of the hotel, and
seeing Lai Tai approaching the door with an
armful of dishes shot at him, tbe ball strik
ing the top of his bead and removing a con
siderable portion of bis soalp. Tbe China
man fell to the floor, and Taylor fired an
other shot, then fled. There was some de
lay in procuring a warrant for Taylor's ar
rest, and he made good bis escape. It was
supposed that he came this wsy, aod in faot
is known tbat be was in this vicinity Moo
day afternoon. Officers Arthur Stewart
and Ben Glisan arrived here Monday even
ing, and with Sheriff Booth put in the
greater part of the night scouring the coun
try, but did not succeed in locating their
man. Tom Spafford came aoross the desert
Monday night, and about 1 o'clock met a
man tea miles the other side o Powell '
Buttes inquiring the wsy to Silver lake,
who suited the description of Taylor.
Messrs. Glisan and Stewart accompanied
by Sam Hodges as guide, started again in
pursuit ot Taylor Tuesday afternoon, aud
intercepted him at Button springs Wednes
day morning. Tbey arrived hers witn nun
Wednesday night and leit Thursday lor
Antelope. Taylor will be taken to The
Dalies for trial, aod at ooort it now io ses
sion he may be tried at this term.

From Satarday's Pally.
Tbe Dalles brass band last night, after -
marching down Second street, escorted Mr.
Hayes, tbe lecturer of the grange, and other v

assembled to listen to tbe addresses. Alter
playing a few tunes, the baod adjourned lo
the court room, and tbe first speaker, Mr.
J. H. Leedy, was introduced. He spoke
only a few moments, not expecting to be
called upon. His remarks showed careful
thought on tbe queitions now agitating tbe
public mind and be used logical oonolusioos.
He was followed by Mr. Hayes, who dwelt
principally upon tbe extravagances of the
last legislature, and the necessity for farm
ers to vote for men who would introduce
economy in publio affairs. The speech wsa
enthusiastically received and frequently an
plauded. From beginning to end the audi
ence appeared to be in sympathy with tha

ments. Tbe meeting seemed to be produc
tive of tbe best of feeling among the visit

there were warm hand-shakings.
