. DEMOCRATIC RESPONSIBILITY
It is bTident from the Washington
dispatches that tba administration is
in a quandary what to do nnxt, says
the Chicago; Inter Ocean. ' For over
thirty years the party now in power
has been relieved from the necessity of
. doing anything except to object and
criticise. Of all the Democrats now
prominent from Cleveland down not
one was so much as a little bit a polit
ical factor daring the old Democratic
period. To change froM objector and
critio to devisor and execnter is no
. easy matter. Bat there is no escape
from this responsibility. No doubt it
is somewhat difficult for the Bepobli
: cans to realize that they are no longer
responsible for the conduct of public
- aftairs, congressional or administrative,
but they could not really assert power
if they tried, and the less they try the
better it will be for the party.
Just now tne administration is
straggling with the problem of a de
icit All through Mr. Cleveland's
first term the Republican senate stood
in the way of any practical carrying
oat of free-trade doctrines, and what
ever the house did or the president
said the revenues of the government
were unaffected. Everybody .knew
that nothing would be disturbed, and
baying and Belling, importing and ex
porting, producing and manufacturing,
kept on the even tenor of their several
ways. But now all is chanced. The
dog is no longer chained, and he can
bite as well at bark. Prices for raw
materials are away down in apprehen
sion of 'free listing, the- manufactures
are largely stopped in apprehension of
reduced duties on manufactured arti
cle8. importers are corns lightly in
hope of lower duties in the near fa
tare, and from the falling off in im
ports the government is suffering
aSout the same as the producers and
' the manufacturers are.
The people, producers, manufactur
ers, and all, have been told that the
repeal of the purchase clause of the
Sherman act would restore prosperity
all along the line. Already the fallacy
of this idea , is beginning to bo dis
tinctly recoguized and conceded. The
what next of the situation is pressing
forward and bound to occupy a front
seat in the regular congress.
How to provide against the inevita
ble deficit is knotting the brow of
Secretary Carlisle. One proposition
being considered is the increased taxa
tion of beer. Another is the coinage
f the seigniorage which accumulated
under the Sherman act. If all that
bullion were coined into silver dollars
they would exceed the volume, of
treasury notes to the extent of some
thing over fifty millions of dollars.
That difference between the actual cost
I the buluen and its value as coin is
seigniorage, which Mr. Carlisle is try
ins to et. hold of and use to bridge
ever the deficit. He is now. drawing
en the gold reserve, which was accu
- mulated and held te meet the redemp
tion demand under the resumption act.
He knows very well that this is a clear
case of robbing Peter to pay Paul, and
' cannot go much farther with safety to
eur monetary system. Judging, how
ever, from . the last six months the
president is quite liable to step in and
stop whatever his secretary of the
treasury may try to do.
rior, bat look at Cyprus tba oriental and
Epanomabo of Thebes and statesman of
Athens, Pericles." We hava tried in the
above excerpt to keep as close to the lan
guage as possible, and from this it appears
that the fellow is densely ignorant and more
idiotic than insane. The ending is abso
lutely senseless, and an attempt at Chinese
and Arabia characters is made for a signa
ture. It would be well for the authorities
to investigate the matter, for, in the very
nature of things, an idiotio being is more
dangerous than one governed by intelli
gence. It may be a ruse, written by some
boy to create notoriety, and, if so, is un
worthy of notice.

TELEGBAPHIO HEW8.
Mr. Wm. Floyd returned last Saturday
from a tonr of the Antelope country. He
went there for the purpose ot purchasing
sheep, and. thoroughly canvassed that por
tion of the county. Cattle are in excellent
oondition, and feed was never better on the
hills. A year ago eluep was held at $3.50 a
head, bat now the price asked range from
$1.75 to $2. Flock masters are very much
discouraged at the prospect?, and are desir
ous of selling out. Wool could not be sold,
and the profits in the busioeos during the
oast season have been little or nothing. In
many insUuces there have not been euough
realized to pay actual expenses, and this has
induced many to turn their attennion to
something e!se Antelope, which is de
pendent largely on sheepmen for trade, is
very doll, and merchants are loudly com
plaining. Very little graiu is raised except
for feed, and crops bare been very fair.
From preeu t imJicttioua i; is presumed
that the wool interests of Wasco county
will not be in the fntarc as important a fac
tor-as the) htve been in the past, and more
attention will be paid to other industries

Eugene Guard: Billy Morgan was ar
retted at Ashland yesterday upon a tele
gram from Sheriff J. E. Koland. It will be
remembered that a little over a year ago
Billy Morgan and Ora Hunt took away to
Eastern Oregon several horses, the property
of John Jenkins and others. After quite a
chase they were captured and returned here
and at the October term of the circuit
court, 1892, the grand jury found true
bills against them for larceny by bailee.
Upon one of the charges they were tried,
convicted and sentenced on Nov. 5, 1892,
to one year in the penitentiary. They
served oat their sentence, being discharged
October 20th " last, having received some
credit marks, thereby lessening their term
somewhat. Deputy Sheriff CToner left for
Ashland on last night's overland train and
will return here with Morgan to-morrow
morning. This will compel the man to re
main in jail for several months before he
can be tried on the other indictments.'
Hunt is still at large.
The Hawaiian Monarchy.
Washington. Nov. 11 Inquiry at the
department, of state warrants the state-
inent that the president has given bis ap
proval to the series ot findings in the Ha
waiian affair. Tbete is still a question
as to what will be necessary to restore
the status antibellum on the Islands, but
it is generally believed that the repre
sentations of Minister Wilns to the ettect
that the president desires that the queen
be enthroned will not be sumcieot. Ad
miral Irwin will be called odoq to exer--
cise bis functions and land the naval for
cesoftbe Pbiladelahia and Adams and
march through tbe streets of Honolulu
dragging gatling guns to the government
house. It is hieblv improbable, bow-
ever, that the provisional government
will be obstinate, as resistance would
necessitate a resort to military demon
stration. It is - believed, however, tbat
when tbe queen is again placed upon tbe
tbroDe the United States will regard its
.duty accomplished, and tbe queen must
defend the throne- and government nn
aided by tbe United States. It is said by
persons well up in diplomatic lore that
this action is equivalent to acknowledg
ing that the queen' was dispossessed by
the United States. She would have a
good claim lor damages.

Bank Eobbsry At Milton.
From a dispatch in yesterday's Bob
Orcgonian we learn the following regarding
a bank robbery at Milton:
At about' 3 o'clock'tbis afternoon, three
. men rode into the streets ot Milton. It
" was very foggy, and their actions were cot
generally observed by citizens. All three
dismounted, and one held their horses
, Tbe other two entered tbe Bank of Milton
The president, A. Hopson, the cashier,
N. A. Davis, and the assistant cashier, M r.
Hopson's son, were in the bank at the
time. The two men walked bodly in and
quest with pistol points. The officers were
not disposed'to' accede, and President Hop
sod turned to get a pistol.
At this juncture three shots were fired
by tbe robbers. One struok Mr. flocson's
Heft arm and the" other his leftside. The
wounds are painful and serious, but not
- necessarily dangerous. Cashier Davis es
caped with fits face badly powder- burned.
Alter the shooting, Mr. Uopson s son
banded eat $1000 in gold to the robbers
from the till and they left the bank.
The whole affair occupied but a few mo
menta, and tbe desperadoes were on their
horses and away before anyone in Milton
- scarcely were aware of the reckless deed.
- Bat soon there was a atir, Deputy' Sheriff
Ritchie soon secured a posse of fear or five
resolute citizens, aad ia ten minutes after
tbe robbers left tbe pursuers were in tbe
saddle and on their trail. They are sup
posed to bave taken the road in the direc
uon oi nasKet mountain.
The facta were promptly telephoned to
Sheriff Furnish, and he baa bee doing
everthing -possible' to catch the outlaws,
Deputy Sheriff Stamper has been dispatched
from Athena with a posse and orders to
capture tbe rubbers,- dead or alive, and
men from W eaten are also in puraait.
Two are described as middle-aged men,
one tall and the other stoatly built, aad the
third aa a boy about 20 years old. All
were unmasked. Tbe ssea are supposed to
have stopped laat mgbt in Athena. .
We learn from tbe Telegram that Oscar
Sandman, porter for J. M. Arthur & Co.
on First and Ash streets.Portland, waived
examination in the municipal court yes
terday afternoon on a charge of burglar
izing tbe store of Rosenfeld, Smith & to.
that morning, and his bonds were fixed at
$500. Detective Barry, Officer Blanchet
and John Hagerman, porter for the vie
umized firm, are entitled to the credit of
the capture. Sandman is about 40 years
of age, and has a family residing at Hood
River. Before the opening -of the court
he made a full confession of his guilt to
bis former employer and to Mr. Nathan
D. Simon, retained to a siskin the prose
cution, oanaman was lormeny a resi
dent of this city, and was sent to the pen
itentiary from The Dalles a few
for larceny from a store. He has a bad
reputation in this vicinity, and there is
no surprise manifested that be is still at
his old tricks. -
Last Friday evening, says the Fossil
Journal, Dick Renoe and his dogs ran across
a lynx near by Dick's residence on Butte
creek, three miles above town. They ran
him over towards Ed. Tipley's ranch, where
Jeddy Brown was assisting Ed to build his
new house.- Seeing the lynx, pursued by
the dogs, coming towards them, Jeddy
seized a club and sallied forth, to do or die.
Jirf. followed, armed with the ax. Seeing
that his retreat was cut off, the lynx turned
npon.the dogs and sent first one and then
the ether down the hill, lacerated and.
howling; then be ran iato a clump of rye
grass and laid low, awaiting developments.
Jeddy soon sighted him, eroucbing behind
a ryegrass bunch, and succeeded in knock
ing him down with a tremendous blow on
tbe head. While the varmit was struggling
to regain bis footing, Ed. appeared with the
ax and dispatched him in abort order.

Augusta, Me., Nov. 12-In a letter to
tbe Kenebee Journal, tbe Hon . J. L. Ste
vens, late United States minister at Ha
waii, makes a long reply to Secretajy
Oresbam's report. He says in part:
'-According to authentic reports from
Washington a public crime of startling
impoit ii about to be committed in tbe
name and nuder the authority of tbe
American government. A public crime
of less proportions, but in its moral type
similar to tbe stining or national me and
tbe reform aspirations of Poland and
Hanearv. a few years ago, by the im
perial despots, and to tbe crushing out
ot tbe newly -formed republic of Rome
by tbe UDsnrped powers ot LiOUisJNa.
poleon.: All that American piety, Amer
ican benevolence, American schools and
American patriotism bave accomplished in
Hawaii in the past 70 years are now cen
traiized in tbe provisional govern meot
and stand in its support. It is a govern
ment honestly and ably administered
and tbe best government that Hawaii
ever bad. I know not tbe influences
which induced Secretary Oresham to be
come an active agent in attempting such
a grave offense against American civil
ization, justice and law. His intense
hostility to ex-.President Harrison ana
to the illustrious ex secretary of state,
wbo passed to his grave in January last
is well known. It is tbat wbicli caused
him to hetrav and desert tbe great polit
ical party whose honors he bad shared
aud brought bim to his present - attitude
toward his former associates and their
work. So far as bis recent manifesto on
Hawaiian affairs casts reflection upon
my official action, I care little, except to
the degree tbat his cruel and nntrntbful
werds strike at tbe noble banal of men
nd - women wbo have for 10 months
stood so devotedly and in tbe defense of
American civilization.".
consultation will be held, at which time
tbe policy and terms of negotiations
with this government will be formally
opened by tbe United States minister.
Tbe provisional government of Hawaii
bus but one course to pursue in meeting
aad arranging for tbe future government
of tbe islands, acknowledged as tbey aie
by tbe authorities of tbe United States.
AH future arrangements must necessarily
be made through tbem and with tbeir
consent. Having tbe political backing
and financial consent of tbe business and
plantation interests of tbe country, there
can be but little doubt as to the course
of firm determination the government
mnst fol'ow to be consistent with the
immense interest placed in tbe hands of
the people of Hawaii. A return to the
old form of government is out of the
question, aDd it is generally conceded
tbat should tbe monarchy be restored by
some unexpected and improbable means
it could not last. The old historical ax
iom that revolutions cannot go backward
could not be violated in the case of Ha
waii without grave and serious conse
quences. This, however, is nqtex pec
ted. Tbe conservative interests of tbe
people who really represent the Hawa
iian islands and own 70 per cent of the
business interests of tbe country would
be very likely to refuse their consent to
sucb a course This would settle tbe cause
of restoration .

TRAVELING IN BRITTANY.
One Meeta Generally With a Very Unwel
come Reception at a Cottage.
Call at a roadside cottage in Brit
tany and ask for food and a night's
shelter, and the whole family will
crowd into the door to obstruct your
passage, lhen they will silently
and sullenly look you over. Whither
from? Whither bound? If a foreign
er, they are even shrewd enough to
demand your passport No vaga
bond, deserter nor ticket of leave
man will they harbor. Finally as-.
aured you are none of these, they
set about bargaining for the last sou
they can wring from you. The food
you are to get, to the very color of
the coffee, is set powerfully against
your money.
Their own poverty, their bewilder
ing number of children, the lonely
road to the nearest village inn, the
fact that at the next cottage they
would probably murder as well as
take you in; all and much more is
set forth to make your bargain a
hard one.
So, too, the toothless old peasant
hag mother, while eying you suspi
ciously, croons to her husband a run
ning fire of objections to the 'ar
rangement, a few of which set you
down to your face as a villainous spy,
some wretch that has cheated the
gibbet, and certainly no less than
the thief of Breton horses who was
caught and flogged at the last horse
fair at La Folguet, -
They are shrewd and canny, these
simple folk, and they will make you
very miserable until the price is set
and paid down in hand, for they
will not trust you with the sum un
til morning, lest your appearance be
lie your ability to pay; but, the lugu
brious transaction once settled and
a few sous scattered among tne
children, which are immediately
snatched away and hidden in the
farmer's strong box, the atmosphere
suddenly changes.
You are the guest now. All tbe
innkeeping politeness, suavity and
attention of Paris itself are yours,'
and until you leave every soul in the
cottage puts every other duty aside
to minister unto your wants and
comfort. Pitteburg Dispatch.

Jacksonville. Ga., Nov. 13 An al-
most incredible lynching story comes
from Fort White, situated near tbe phos
phate mines aod convict' camps, twenty
miles from Like City. Henry Boggi,
and three other negroes, charged with
tbe murder and robbery of J. W. Dun
can, a white storekeeper, were the vic
tims ot tBe-vmobs fury. 'Ibe report,
which is meager, says Boggs was taken
from tbe officer and shot, after which bis
body was mutilated in a horrible man
ner. One account says be was not dead
when tbe mutilation began. Members
of tbe mob cut into the flesh -" wi'b lone
knives, and when he cried out from tbe
pain part of a blanket was crammed into
bis month . Another statement is to tbe
effect tbat slits were cut - and bis eyes
stitched op aod then gouged out. As to
tbe oiber captiyes, tbey "escaped," so it
is reported, but horrible cries aad groans
beard lo the swamp shortly after tbe es
cape cause people to smile incredulously
at tbe report. Some go so far as to say
they were treated with much greater sev-
erity than Beggs, one of them being
turned alive in an effort on tbe part of
tbe mob to extort a confession from bim.
Pieces of pitch were set on fire and slnck
into bis quivering flesh uatil be died,

Of what value is it that our "gild

consequently wider opportunities for

Of what use has been the toiling and

to amass riches for those who have

What happiness can it bring to the

During my second year at the Jef

I had a classmate whom it would not
be uncharitable to call a dullard. One
of the professors was in the habit of
taking the boys unawares and quiz

The professor made no comment,
and the fellow soon realized that he
had made a mistake. After a quarter
of an hour he said :
"Professor, I want to change my
answer to that question."

the professor, looking at his watch

"1 consider the Vaudeville club a
great success," said a man of society
languidly, "because it fills a large
felt want. What to do between 11
and 1 has always been a question with
me. I leave the house where I am
dining at 11 or thereabouts and try
to look in at any ball or dance that is
going about 1, but the interme
diate space has always been difficult
to fill up." "I should go to bed,"
said his country . cousin simply.

He Matches Odd Buttons.
: Not long eince I discovered a man
in New York who makes a specialty
of matching lost buttons. Tfr shop,
a dingy little, low ceilinged room,
was surrounded by shelves, on which
were piled boxes of buttons of all
sorts and conditions. While I was
there a girl came in and asked him
if he had any like those on her jacket."
He took down several specimens and
presently found one, which he sewed
on. .. She paid him 10 cents. That Is
the usual price, though rare buttons
sometimes come higher.
At regular intervals he goes around
collecting buttons among tailors and
dressmakers, who save them for him
and sell them very cheap. He has a
set of regular customers, and they
rarely go away without finding ex
actly what they want. Lippincotf a.
