SATURDAY. . . . . .NOVEMBER 25, 1893
The committee on ways and means
baa its chairman and a majority of its
Democratic members from the south
ern states, and these gentlemen will
not, probably, pay any great attention
to the elections of last week, says an
exchange. The south has always been
opposed to New England, and a pro
test from Massachusetts against tariff
revision is only calculated to spur on
the southern members ef this most im
portant committee in congress. But
. . . . I f 11 c
tne varia reformers are tur mt ui ul
timo beginning to hear protests from
their own section.. The Democratic
governor of West Virginia was among
these who recently appeared before
Mr. Wilson's committee to protest
against free coal There is no ques
tion about his representing a stronger
sentiment in West Virginia than does
Mr. Wilson, who is a free-trader.
Alabama has also sent a protest and
an appeal to save the infant industries
f Birmingham. The Commercial Club
f that enterprising city held a oieet-
- 1 . i T? - J 1 J i - J . w.at-.inn
to the Alabama congressmen on the
subject of free coal and free iron ore,
This petition appeals on behalf of 350,'
000 of the people of Alabama, sup-
utwtArl in whnlo llO triA minPTfll 1 fl H 11 P
try of one-third of the state's tax val
ves. It asks that the present duty on
coal and ore be retained. This is not
to help out New England, but to pre'
rent that section from "robbing the
south." -
General Hancock remarked that
the tariff was a local question, anil his
: t t nAt in Arnlnininff that, it
was important to every locality, with
different industries to be protected in
eicb. Bat here in the wry beginning
f this free.trade ad minis! ration comes
the south West Virginia, Alabama
and Tennessee protesting againtt
free ore and free coal, and for tiio
svtoie reason that Pennsylvania and
Ohio protes. But they !o farther than
either Pennsylvania and Ohio in that
they complain of. free-trade as in the
interest of New England.
This petition says that Alabama fur
naces are down to hard pan no and
can stand no furtht-r adversititM.
Twenty per cenU of the southern iron
product is now marketed' on th north
Atlantic seaboard, and free coil and
re would reduce the cost of makin-j
iron on the north Atlantic tide water
by $2.50 a ton, taking this market
from Alabama and Tennessee. Thir
furnaces would succumb to the -strain
and millions of jinoney in these prop
erties would become valueless.
"Driven out of the eastern market wo
would be thrown back upon the west,"
ays the report "and there sompeti
tion is already close." In taking the
duty oft coal and ore the southern
states have everything to lese and
nothing to gain. They have pro6ted
by cheap labor, but they can go no
fnrthnr. It would also BtOD the flow
f capital into these southern states,
and the capital for development must
come from the outside.
These southern petitioners complain
that the demand for free coal "comes
from the north" Atlantic seaboard,
where it w.ould cheapen fuel and in
crease the ability ot the New. England
cotton factories to compete With those
111 VU WHllh ill-" minimum
grown wealthy by duties which op
pressed the south. Why should the
south give np an . advantage which it
now hasf ' ...
This is an interesting question, and
si nee it is made by Democrats to Dem
ocrats in behalf of a Democratic state
which was -"the cradle of confeder
acy," and against New . England,
"which hss always been against., the
south," we can leave it ' to the great
Democratic party, which holds chat
protection is unconstitutional. It is,
however, interesting to nave tne sou to
trying for protection to its infant in-
dnfctriea to the congress it has placed
in power for the especial purpose of
destroying protective tariffs and driv
ing out the "infamous robber-tarriff
borons."
Inland Waterwayr,
In an extensive article tn the "Inland
Waterways of the Northwest," the Sevkw
qf Review for November has the follow
ing in reference to the "Possibilities of
thtk f!nlnm riia" -
Next to the Mississippi, our most im
portant river is the Columbia. The peo
ple of the eastern part of the United
States generally have a very inadequate
idea of the valley of the Columbia, the
Mississippi of the west, a region which
the senate committee on transportation
routes to the sea has glowingly described
as "unsurpassed, if indeed equaled, in
aericultural.grazing and mineral produc
tiveness by an era of equal size on the
habitable globe." Tbe territory drained
oy the Columbia river and its tributaries
is equal to one-fifteenth of the entire
United States, and is larger than the com
bined area of New England, the Middle
States, Maryland, Virginia and West Vir
ginia. This vast treasure house of natu
ral resources will be unlocked by the
construction of the Nicaragua canal and
the farther improvement of the Columbia
river. The latter work has been well be
gun. The cascades of the Co
lombia river, 160 miles from the mouth,
present the first obstacles to navigation.
At this place the river falls 45 feet, a
high water, in tour and a halt miles; but
a canal 3000 feet long constructed with a
single lock will Boon remove this barrier
to commerce Two hundred and twenty
miles from the sea are the dalles, where
the river falls 81 feet at low water in a
distance of twelve miles. The expense
necessary to overcome this obstruction
will be large. A board appointed by the
secretary of war, upon tbe authorization
f the river and harbor ' act ot 1888,
thought that the use of Jocks would in
volve a greater expense than the com
merce of the river warranted and recom
mended raising and lowering boats by
means of two hydraulic vertical lifts, one
to be placed near the lower end and one
near the upper end of the dalles, tbe boats
to be carried from one lift to the other by
means f a boat railway eight miles long.
By an estimated outlay of $3,576,856 forty
, i ii i i r I i- 1
boats could be passed each way in
twenty-four hours. The plan was not ac
cepted by congress, and the river and
harbor act of 1893 directed the president
of the United States to appoint another
board to re-examine the obstructions at
tbe dalles for the Durpose of reporting the
best method of overcoming them. With
the improvements atThe Dalles once com
pleted, the lower Columbia will be navi
gable to Priest's rapids, 409 milos from
the ocean.
Eeport of Grand Jury.
- In the circuit court of the state ot Ore
gon for Wasco county.
Ia the matter of the final report of the
grand jury for the Novcnber term, 1893.
We, the grand jury, for the November
term, 1893, respectfully show to the court
as follows:
We have now been in session five days,
and have found eleven indictments and six
not true bills, alt of which have been re
ported to the court from time to time as our
work progressed.
We have also inquired into tbe condition
and management of the public prisons of
the county and also into the condition aDcl
management ef the offices pertaiuiog to the
courts of justice in the couuty, and have
examined the books and accounts of the
county ofiiceis so tar as we were able to il
so in the short time we had and without as
sistance of any skilled accountant.
We find all the books of the clerk's office
well and neatly kept, and tbe same may be
said of the sheriffs office, and all accounts
of both clerk and sheriff are correctly kept
so far as we are able to jude.
The county treasurer's books appear to be
in good condition and well kept. The fol
lowing financial statement was rendered us
by the treasurer, showing the financial
standing of the county on the first of No
vember, 1893:

We find the coun'y jtil clean and well
kept. We find, however, that the floor- of
the jail is made ot brick covered by cement,
and find that the same is badly worn, very
rough and has inauy clep depressions in it.
We, thetefore, recommend that it be re
paired and placed ia better condition. We
tin! that about the only ventilation there is
for the j vil is through the brs of "the rear
door of the jiil, which oprns i:.to the jail
yard. We also find that ihrre is a door
leading from the hallway of. the ccurt
hoixe irti this same jtil yard and that per
sons may pats into the jail yard in that way
at any hour of the day uiiobserve l and that
it is continually done. When persona are
in the jai yard they have free acces.,to this
rear d ior of the an.i it. wjuM be a very
easy mat;er for anv one, wl o was so ills-
p-jecd, to pass a weapon t.i the inmates. of
the jail, t.r furciah them wild tools whereby
they might make their eejpe. We think
thxt this would .be very daugercua to t'ie
j tilor m cum desperate criminals should be
confined therein, arid it nlao reistleis the jiil
unsaia as prison. We, iheieforc, earnestly
recommend that some suitable measures be
taken to render this matter safe.
We also visited the city jiiland find it
well kept and managed. As prisoners are
not ueually confined there but a few days at
a time and for minor offenses only, we think
it reasonably sale and convenient for the
oee required of it, and, therefore, have lo
recommendations to make in regard to it.

U. W". Miller, FTTremau,
Burned to Death.
The most horrible sight that has been
Been in Spokane for a long time was Been
Saturday night. A colored man by the
name of George Fields was burned to
death- He lay in a heap of coals and
ashes when the firemen pulled him out,
and he died before he was dragged off the
smouldering wrotk of a small frame
dwelling house. ' The building caught
afire about 8 o'clock, and before the fire -men
reached there the roof had fallen in
and no one supposed there was a human
being contained within the flaming ruins.
Just as the water was turned on tbe side
of tho building it fell in and tbe sight re
vealed to the eyes of tbe bystanders
caused a mighty cry ot horror to go np.
They saw a man fall into the coals.
There is considerable excitement overdue
affair. Tbe police have discovered that
the man had been working on the Great
Northern road and came in with consid
erable money from where he had been
employed. They believe that he had
been engaged in drinking heavily and
was taken by a notorious woman of the
town, robbed and the shack set on fire to
conceal the crime. . Tbe police claim that
tbe man must have been drugged and
left in the burning building to die, and of
course he must have died a horrible
death. '.
Eugene Guard: Lane county has an
other gun : accident. J. W. Schnmpf
came in from Wolf Creek, about twenty
miles west of this city, last evening after
tbe coroner. A man named Rowey had
accidentally killed himself, lie has been
living on a claim with another man
named Miller. Yesterday atternoon about
5 o'clock he was returning home from a
trip down the canyon after a pup. He
had the pup under his arm and had a gun
with bim. In getting over a fence' the
gun was accidentally discharged and the
bullet struck him in the neck, passing
through from the front to the back and
killing him instantly. He had no family.
The death being plainly of an accidental
nature Coroner Harris did not go to Wolf
Creek, as it would have been a needless
expense to tbe county.
The following affair, which we glean from
the Long Creek Eagle created quite a sen
sation in that little town:' "Upon the dis
covery that a thief had effected an entrance
into the Keeney saloon building and stolen
about $75 worth of groceries and clothing,
a warrant was obtained for the search of
ev-r residence in town, regardless of the
m r.l standing, manner of living or pre
vious condition of servitude of the occu
pants of its many homes. This warrant,
regardless of its legality, for as a matter of
law, we believe it to have been illegal waa
carried out by parties who at the time were
not sworn officers nnder bond, and wbo had
do more right by virtue of said warrant to
enter the private homes of this city than
tbe judge of any court' has to inflict the
death penalty without trial."

Text of Btennt Itcport
New York, Nov. 20 The Herald's
Washington correspondent telepraphs as
follows: Commissioner Blount's report
on the Hawaiian question will show that
Micister Stevens landed the troops from
the Boston long before there was any
valid excuse for tbeir presence on Ha
waiian soil, and that be declined to do so
wbeh requested to remove them by the
government, wbo informed him that tbe
authorities were willing and able to pre
serve order and to protect A merican in
terests; that these troops were stationed
across tbe street from the government
buildings ia which Minister Stevens
knew tbat revolutionists were about to
read tbeir proclamations, and tbat tbe
revolutionists committee relied upon the
American troops to protect them in this
act of rebellion-; that the minister recog
nized tbe provisional government accord
ing to a preconceived programme before
tbat government had obtained possession
of the departments and military power
at Honolulu, and that tbe military power
waa surrounded and tbe queen surren
dered only through awe of tbe superior
forces of the United States.
Many depositions by a number of
well-known gentlemen in Honolulu were
taken before Commissioner Blount, indi
cating that Queen Liliuokalaui surren
deredher throne and her ministers re
signed because of the landing of Amer
ican troops at Honolulu. In tbe depos
ition of Mr. 8. A. Damon, president ot
the advisory council ot the provisional
government, he was asked if the queen
was advised by her ministers to surren
der because the sympathy of the United
States was with the revo utionists. He
answered:
'I know it was lha queen's idea that
Mr. Stevens was in sympathy with this
movement. The queen was reluctant to
sign the abdication, but did so on tbe
ground that it would a!l come up for re
view nt Washington. I told her so my self.
It was the best terms ot settlement
we could get. I took it to Presided
Dole, and be received and indorsed it."

a futile attempt to cross the noitb fork
of Lolocreek into the Clearwater country,
where it is supposed Will Car'in, son of
General Carlin, and party of friends are
lost, uuable to get out. A courier brought
this information to Fort Missoula from
Lolo bot springs, where a company of
soldiers irom Fort Missoula is camped,
and Irom which point . it has been at
tempted to maiutain a trail over the range
into tbe Clearwater country . Lieutenant
Martin and Guide Wright were in con

who is in charge of the rescuing party at
Lolo springs, 50 miles ftom here, and it
has been about conc'uded that another
attempt will be made to enter the Clear

Over Niagara Falls.
Buffalo, N. Not. 20 Two young
men went over the Horseshoe rapids of
Niagara at dusk Saturday nigbt. When
tbe Michigan Central stopped at tbe new
station, passengers saw two men in a
boat in tbe Horseshoe rapids opposite
tbe third of tbe Sister islands. They
were making frantic endeavors to reach
soma rocks. The bodies have not been
recovered. When tbe train brought tbe
report to tbe city a great rash was made
across the Goat-island bridge- to get a
glimpse of the men. ' The gates were
closed, which caused some delay. The
first of those to get in sight of tne rocus
saw the men swept away from the last
chanee bv the swift current of tbe river.
The bodif s were quickly carried over the
falls. They bad started up the river
duckhunting in tbe afternoon, and per
mitted their boat to float too far with the
current. Tbeir identity is not well es -tablisbed,
but one is belieyed to be John

' Woman's Onward March.
There came a time in the history
of my life when I suddenly realized
that I can tell a brierwood from a
meerschaum while it is being smoked.
It was borne in upon me that by
years of subtle training I had come
to know a "Perfecto" from a "two-for-a-nickel."
It flashed upon my
sinful soul thatL, Sappho, the scorner
of nicotine, was myself a connoisseur
of the delicate and difficult art of dis
tinguishing even from the next
room the varying: characteristics of
differing kinds of Turkish tobacco. I
found, to my amazement, that I knew
the perfumed Turkish cigarettes lose
their national characteristics coming
over land and sea to Boston, and that
a Richmond cigarette is more grate
ful (vicariously) to my nostrils.
I can smell this moment the peculiar
peanut nuttdness of an old clay pipe
and the almond nuttiness of a new
Henry Clay cigar, and I can recall to
a whiff the experimental odor of a
corncob Brimming with rank plug.
Yet I never smoked but onco irr my
life. Then I choked on burning mul
lein leaves recommended for a cold!
It is one of the results of the open
ing of modern occupations for wom
en that I have become so learned in
this way. I don't know yet whether
or not I am proud of my wisdom, but
It is certain that I have no vicarious
amusement more charmingly altru
istic than smoking. A Woman in

The Cse of Poetry.
Nearly all the other arts have an
official standing. They are endowed,
perpetuated, made part of the appa
ratus of life. But we are as incredu
lous of poetry as of the sea serpent,
and the affidavits of those who have
seen the thing itself do not convince
a sceptical world. Poetry's killing
foe is wealth, and wealth of late has
grown beyond the dreams of avancei
Money, which can call into existence
many of the arts, which can rear
architectures, lay out gardens, give
to household decoration a sumptuous
beauty impossible to poor ages, which
can even greatly help in the creation
of music and painting money bas
no potency over the proud and dis
dainful muse. :
But the future of poetry is im
mense, because when actualities op
press, when utilities task, when,
"tired of all these, for restful death
we cry," all we need do is to open our
books and without struggle to ' par
take the strife, without effort to at
tain the ease, without putting off
mortality to have part in the immor
tality of those sole things which show
a semblance of eternal life the crea
tions of the divine poets. Ponce de

A Strange Selection.
It is an easy and very profitable
business to smuggle rifles into Moroc
co. A weapon may be bought in
Gibraltar for $10 and sold in the in
terior for five or six times that sum.
Smugglers are continually running
over in feluccas and beaching these
arms somewhere between Cape Spar
tel and Tangier, and curious are the
devices by which they accomplish
their transport. -
One smuggler told a traveler that
he ran his cargo into Tangier bay
after dark and unloaded the rifles
on the beach not a quarter of a mile
from the custom house.
. "Who assists you in unloading?''
asked the traveler.
'I generally employ the porters
of the custom house," was the inno
cent reply.
Then, noting the surprise and
amusement of his hearers, he added:
"They are more skilled in unload
ing than other laborers."
It had evidently neither occurred
to him nor to the porters that they
might betray him. Youth's Com
panion. Hypnotism and Dentistry.
For a quarter of a century I have
been hoping that the principles of
hypnotism as now developed might
be applied so as to bring relief to pa
tients during dental operations. It is
with pleasure that I am able today to
report a pronounced success in that di
rection a success that I believe will
continue, and the methods will be so
formulated that the art will be with
in the reach of every intelligent op
erator on the human teeth.. I found
that it was the opinion of writers on
hypnotism that pain would always
wake a patient from the hypnotic
sleep unless such patient was in a
somnambulistic condition. I felt it
might be quite possible to derive dis
tinct benefit in the lighter stages if
they could be kept continuous. I
soon believed it possible, and after a
diligent study of Bernheim I com
menced to hypnotize, and my first
effort proved a success. Thomas

No dross of self will lurk;

A man with hope undaunted,

And the world is yet to see
The noblest worth of this old earth
In the men that are to be.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox in New York Truth.
In His Pocket For Fifty Years.
Mr. S. T. Fulton, who recently
came to Du Bois from Sniicksburg.
Indiana county, carries in his trou
sers pocket a brass medal that has
been with him for more than 50
years. "When he was a young man,
more than half a century ago, he
was teaching school down in Cam
bria county, and while there Mat
thew "W. Gibson, a young. Catholic
priest, became his fast friend. Mr.
Fulton is not a Catholic, but when
he left Cambria county Father Gil
son gave him the medal that he still
carries.
It is a round piece of brass about
the size of a half dollar and engraved
on both sides, but now worn almost
smooth from having been carried in
Mr. Fulton's pocket so many years.
On one side is the head of Mary, the
mother of Christ, and the letters "O.
P.M Mother, Pray For Us." On the
other side is the head of Christ and
"Man Salvator." The young priest
who gave it to Mr. Fulton informed
him that it had come from Rome and
had been blessed by the pope. Du
Bois Courier.
Evidence by Photography.
An instance of the safety and cer
tainty of photography as a witness
occurred at an inquest. A servant
fell while cleaning a window and
was killed. No one saw the accident.
But her employer, who happened to
be an amateur photographer, took a
photograph of the window before
anything was disturbed. This pho
tograph showed the position of the
sashes, the wash leather, dusters, etc.,
on the sill, and satisfied the coroner
that the girl was sitting outside at
the time she fell and was not leaning
out from the inside. It is suggested
that the time is not far distant when
a photographer will be officially at
tached to every division of police.
Louisville Courier-Journal.
The Position of a Sister.
A sister is a sort of a guardian
angel in the home circle. Her pres
atim condemns vice. She is the Quick -
ener of good resolutions, the sun
shine in the pathway of home. To
every brother she is light and life.
Her heart is the treasure house of
confidence. In her he finds a safe
adviser, a charitable, forgiving, ten
der, though often undeserved friend.
In her he finds a ready companion.
Her sympathy is as open as day and
sweet as the fragrance of flowers.
