SATURDAY -MAY 25, 1895 TAKE THE WITNESS. few figures that may Bet the free trad . ers thinking, says the Inter Ocean. They tell us, with many therefores and . wherefores and becauses, and in in geniously constructed syllogisms, that free trade "inevitably must'f enlarge - the commerce of anv nation that adonts it. It is painfully true that in Amer ica every approach to free-trade policy .'. has been followed by restriction of commerce, depression of agriculture, and reduction, of wages; but the free traders tell us that if we had but per severed in well-doing all would have been well, that if we had undergone a few more years of famine - we should have entered a lustrum of fatness. Thnaa. hnwevar. are ireneralities of our own suggestion; the American Econ omist's fisrures are En&rlish. Great Britain has had a long era of free trade.' When that era began she easily was the greatest manufacturer of iron. - No other nation came near to her in extent of production, exporta tion, or domestic consumption of iron products. While she . has been free trading Germany and the United States Rave been protecting. The consequence, or at any rate the coin cidence, is that America has become a greater manufacturer of iron than Britain, and Germany has become al most as-great. These, however, also are generalities of our own suggestion. The American Economist's figures do . not deal with British production, but with British exportations. It is of the essence of the free traders' sophistry that international commerce is conducted on the principle of village trade; that as one village grocer em ploys Dr. Smith because Smith buys coffee from him, while the other grocer employs Dr. Jones because Jones buys coffee from hfm, so Great Britain will buy more corn from us u we will Duy more cloth from it. This is nonsense. Nations buy where they can buy most cheaply; city people buy thus; it is in hamlets only that. the free' traders' theory of swapping is reduced to prac tice. These, still, are generalizations of our own. , . ' Now we. will take up the figures pre ' sented by the American Economist. In 1884 Great Britain imported iron, ' mainly in its raw state, together with tin, coal, and other minerals to the value of 389,774,549, and in 1894 to the value of 408,505,718. She admitted this iron duty free. Now, according to the free-trade theory, the nations whose raw iron wus admitted duty i j i : I i. buying more freely of British man ufactured iron. This is another sug gestion of our own; we hasten to other figures presented by the Economist. In 1884 the British exports of iron, steel, - tin plate, and other hardware amounted to 3,496,532 tons.. In 1894 they had fallen to 2,656,125 tons. - This, says the Economist, indicates a. yearly, shrink age of $80,000,000 in the value of Brit ish exports of ironware. Messieurs, the free traders, -"Take the witness!" INCOME TAX LEGISLATION. A T V. country has ite last income-tax, what ever may be the position taken by Justice Jackson on the question of the constitutionality of the present law. There is no room for doubt on this point. Of course the element of the community which the present tax strikes is small in numbers, and every other law of this sort which was " proposed, except that in operatton during the war and for a few years afterward, would touch only a minute fraction of the people. This is one of the reasons, however, why such a law is objectionable. It is class legisla- - tion, and on that account is contrary to the theory and spirit of our institu tions; it is, also, to some extent, sec tional, and, as a consequence, it is de moralizing and dangerous.' Such a tax, for these reasons, is sure to be assailed by, all the resources , which the class discriminated against can command. It .will be attacked in the courts, and the officials charged with its execution will- thus be seri- 1 - - 1 3 -Tt ..m ousiy impeaea. jx wiu oe evaaea oy many persons wherever evasion can be resorted to safely, and the chances for evasion of an impost of this kind will always be numerous. The greater the amount of the tax a person owes under such a law the greater the opportunity will be for him to dodge some of it. It was estimated by the government offi- Kiaio in wo civil war ioy o Limit a ur i : ti -J i ie o per cent, of the tax due under the law was shirked. If that was the case wYiAn t.liA mnnm.fnn rtf naranna af fected was far larger than it is now, or than it would be under any law which could have any chance of enactment in time of peace, and, consequently, less open to the imputation of being ciass legislation, wnat proportion oi the taxes under the present act will be evaded? ... . . A law which encounters such active and powerful opposition defeats the very purpose for which it is enacted. The cost of enforcing it is so great that the benefit which it-brings to the treasury is trifling. . Even during the war days',' when every available source of revenue was necessary to meet the most urgent of the national expendi tures, and when patriotism . demanded that each citizen contribute his quota to the common fund, the government was compelled to spend many millions of dollars in the courts to enforce ' its claims. Manv suits hunir on for vnnra after the repeal of the act, and some of them had to be abandoned by the authorities for want of available evi dence, or because theestate attached had got out of reach of the law. On the score of economy alone such a law is unwise, and it is safe to say that an other will never be enacted except under stress of actual war like that which provoked the earlier impost. ITEnS IN BRIEF. From Saturday's Daily. Mrs. Nona Fairfowl, of Portland, is visiting relatives and friends in -this city. Capt. H. C. Coe, of Hood River, was in the city yesterday. He returned home on the boat this morning. - A marriage license was issued by the county clerk this afternoon to Joseph A. Cary and Miss Mamie M. Osburn. The Good Templars gave a picnic to day on Three Mile. There was a very good attendance ' of ' members - and 'lends. The following deed -was filed with the county clerk today: Matilda C. Durbin to Lulu F. Rogers; lots 5 and 8, block 7, town of Antelope, Baird's addition; $95. .- - , An ill-tempered Dayville man in re buking his son for misconduct, said: "When I was your--age -my-father would not let me go out at night." "A pretty father you had!" sneered the on. This maddened the irritable old man, and he vociferated: . "I had a great deal better father than you have, you young rascal!" - There was a large band of sheep ferried across the Collumbia this morning. They were Mr. Helton's sheep, and came from his Gilliam county farm. They will be driven to summer pasturage in the vicinity of Mt. Adams. Mr. J. Whetstone, of Five Mile, re ceived a kick from a horse he was handling this morning, resulting in a fracture of the left forearm. Dr.. Hol lister was called and applied the usual surgical remedies, and the gentleman is doing as well as could be expected. A full house last night greeted the rendition of "Kathleen Mavourneen" at the opera house. Mr. Senter Pay ton as Terrenes O'Connor and Lucy Payton as Kathleen were good, and received frequent rounds of applause. This play is full of Irish wit, and always attracts a good house. The weather for the past week has been favorable for ripening the straw berry crop, savs the Hood River Gla cier. The crop is in fine condition and everytniner indicates a Disr yieia. .ficK- ing has commenced on the lowlands along the Columbia and in favored spots along Hood river, and next week the ranches throughout the valley will De marketiner the biff red uiarne seedling strawberry that is grown only at Hood Kiver to perfection. An exchange says that Commander P. N. McGiffen, the American who served with the Chinese in the late war,' attributes the superiority of the Japs in the naval battle to the fact that they used shells, while the Chi nese guns had nothing but solid shot. He claimed that the Chinese gunners were just as accurate, and bore them selves with equal bravery, but were not provided with modern projectiles, Shells, or explosive projectiles will be the feature of naval battles heareaiter, and will add to their horror. The value of trees for their shelter is important, and it has been estimated that if one-fourth of the fields devoted to cultivation were planted with trees properly distributed, the other three fourths would produce as much as the whole, beside the timbir and iuei would be clear gain. Trees planted near marshes render them no longer noxious to people living: near them. Where the proportion of one-fourth of the land in timber, the Other three fourths in cultivation .is not maintained. it is only a question of time when the effect will be noticed. . The effect upon the climate is of local character, and this local modification is of great im portance. - - ' From Monday! Daily. Mrs. LeBallister left for Heppner on-the afternoon train. Mr. Charles S. Moses, a wool buyer from the east, is in the city. F. C. Malone, president of the city council of Portland, was in The Dalles yesterday. . Mrs. E.

Co., arrived in the city yes terday on the noon train. Me was accompanied by his wife. Wool is being hauled into the city in large quantities, and - buyers are coming to The Dalles. In a little while quotations will be given. Carp are very . plentiful in the streams in the vicinity of this city, They have increased wonderfully since nrst introduced in this country. The observation car accompanies the noon train from Portland dally. - This affords a good opportunity for tourists to view the grand scenery on the Columbia river. ' , There were two arrests made by the police force Saturday night of persons being drunk and disorderly, and one last night. ..'These was brought before the recorder this morning and each hned 90 and costs. , . , , .

Adams. ' The man who was arrested by the U. S. marshal in this city a few days ago lor sending obscene letters through the mail was C. H. Prather. He is in Hno ways related to Mr. George T, Prather, of Hood River, who is an ex emplary citizen, and has never been guilty of any offense against the pub lic than that of being a good Demo crat. This will be readily forgiven him in 1896, when the Republicans elect their lull national, state and county tickets by overwhelming major ities. - From Tuesday's Daily. Sheriff Driver is in Portland. Mr. G. W. Bates, of Grass Valley, arrived in tne city today. Hon. W. R. Ellis expects to spend today at the .Locks, viewing the gov ernment works. Hon. W. R.

Mr. David Hillier, a former resident of The Dalies, who has beed absent in the east for some years past, returned yesterday morning. We acknowledge a pleasent call this morning. Mr. D. J. Cooper received from Hon. Binger Herman last week a record of his great-grand-father'8 services dur ing the Revolutionary war. He enlis ted in 1770, and served until peace was declared. Among; the delegates who left by the boat this morning to attend the meet ing of Kepublican clubs in Portland were J. E. McCornick, of Eight Mile, and D. J. Cooper and G. H.

CoL Blnnott Meets an Old Friend After Forty Years of Separation. A few days ago an officer in the U. S. army registered at the Umatilla House as Col. Stickney, of Cincinnati, Ohio. In looking over the register Col. Sinnott saw the name, and it was brought to his recollection that about forty years ago, when a boy, he worked at the Planters' House, in St. Louis, and the proprietor's name was Ben. Stickney. There were several boys in the family, with whom the colonel was on the most familiar terms, and he thought this army officer might be one of the sons of Mr. Stickney his chums in boyhood days. In- conversation with him he found the army officer to be the son of Mr. Ben. Stickney, of the Planters' House, and a particular friend when he was a boy. The meet ing was a very cordial one, and a long talk was had -of "days gone by." Colonel .Stickney was in a hurry to join . his command, ' and - left on the night train. It was with great regret that col. sinnott bade him good bye, exacting the promise that if he ever visited The Dalles he would be his guest for some days. Since 1863, Mr. Sinnott has been in the hotel busi ness, and during that time has devel oped keen faculties of observation. He "sizes a man up" at the first glance. and is rarely mistaken. Aside from this he is sometimes impressed by in tuitions, which lead him to form cor rect conclusions regarding identities. One evening, standing in front of the hotel, he saw a man walking towards the door and told his companion that he was a son of Geo. Francis Train He had seen the father and was well acquainted with him; but had never beheld the son. After the' man had registered he found the name George -n m t i t j v . rrancis xrain, jr., written, anu nis observation, intuition, or - whatever it may be termed," proved correct. The colonel has a fund of instructive rem iniscenses to relate, giving instances where he has "spotted'' burglars, and other criminals at first glance as they came into the hotel. - it may be ac counted for on the hypothesis that long experience and close observation in his business has developed certain faculties which are dormant in others who have not had the same opportuni ties. SOCTHEEN GILLIAM. The People In .That Region In Earnest About Having; a Road to The Dalles. We are glad to learn the fact that the residents of the southern portion of Gilliam county are in earnest in having direct communication with this city, thus affording them an opportunity to reap the benefits of cheap water trans portation to seaboard. We copy the following from the Fossil Journal of last week: "On Thursday W. W. Steiwer. J. W. Gilman and W. W. Kennedy, county surveyor, went over that portion of the proposed road to The Dalles, Bituated botween fossil and the Buckhorn road that leads to the mouth of Thirtymile. They went down Butte creek to the Cooley place, about 7i miles, then up North Fork, 2i more, on to the flat. and onward another two miles to the existing county road. "Mr. Kennedy informs ua that thev found a remarkably easy grade from the creeic to tne nat, and no dimculties whatever in the way of making a good road, which he says will never get muddy the great drawback between Mayville and Fossil and the Arlington road. But for sagebrush, the entire distance traveled by the party Thurs day could have been eone over in a i buggy. The route crosses one corner - of Mr. A. G. Ogilvie's ranoh, cutting off a few acres of his poorest grazing land, and the damage would be slight. "Friday morning the same party started for the mouth of Thirtymile, via Mayville, where they were to be joined by the road supervisor of that district, and others. They are pre pored to stay a few days, and they may cross over and do some surveying on the Sherman county side of the river. "We are pleased to see the Mayville farmers putting their shoulders to the wheel in this project. They have be gun to realize what the completion of The Dalle9 road means for them in the way of an increased price for their wheat, and they have commenced to work in earnest. "The wool men, too, of this section, are in favor of the road, as it will bring them into direct touch with a good market for their wool. More buyers come to The Dalles than to Ar lington, and they pay better prices. To take advantage of this, a number of Gilliam county sheepmen are in the habit of having their wool hauled to Arlington, and thence shipped to The Dalles for sale: and they claim that they make money by so doing. With a wagon road to The Dalles they will save the amount charged by the rail road company a big item in these days of close figuring." WEATHER REPORT. In Eastern Oregon For the Week Ending Slay 20, 18B5. Weather Clear, warm weather prevailed up to the 19th, when a few ight showers occurred amounting to from .01 to .10 of an inch. The maxi mum temperatures were above 70 deg. all the week, reaching 88 deg. on the 16th. The minimum temperatures ranged from 48 to 60 deg. in the Colum bia river valley and from 38 to 48 deg. to the south of it. Warm, northerly winds prevailed on the 15th and 16th. Chops The warm winds did no marked damage, further than to dry the soil 9till more. The cereal crop is reported to be in fair condition in Wasco and Sherman counties, gener ally poor in Gilliam and Morrow coun ties and fair in Umatilla and Union counties. More rain in those counties woul be of great benefit and tend to largely increase the yield. The fruit prospects continue excellent. Berries of all kinds will be unusually prolific. Strawberries are ripening rapidly and large shipments are being made from Wasco county. Sheep shearing con tinues, and heavy, clean fleeces are se cured. The range grass is fairly good. The drives to the mountains will begin shortly. The outlook for the year's crops is about a fair average at this date. The success or failure of the cereal crops depends upon the rainfall and temperature during the next fpur weeks. B. S. Pague, Director. THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

The Hood River Glacier says: Little Bruce Morton had a very narrow escape from drowniner the other day. On his father's place a flat boat is used to cross the slouch when making hay, The Miller brothers, Mr. Morton and his little boy had gotten into the boat to cross the slough, and while Mr, Morton and Luther Miller, were pre paring' to push the boat from shore with their oars, Bruce ran to the for ward part of the boat and managed to fall overboard. Mr. Frank Miller hap pened to hear the splash made bv the boy falling overboard, and quickly go ing to tne bow of tne boat, saw tne boy struggling in the water about two feet under the surface. Reaching out at arm's length he caught the boy and pulled him aboard just as the boat was pushed out. In another moment the boy would have been under the boat in twenty feet of water. Test For Drinking- Water. A simple method of testing drinking water is to put into a perfectly clean bottle with ground-glass stopper, five ounces of. the water to be tested. To the water add 10 grains of pure, granu lated, white sugar. Cork tight and set in a window exposed freely to iignt, but not to the direct rays of the 'sun. Do not disturb the bottle, and keep the temperature as near to 70 degrees t . as possible. If the water contains or ganic matter, within 48 hours an abundance of whitish specks will be seen floating about, and the -more or ganic matter, the more specks. In a week or 10 days, if the water is very bad, the odor of rancid butter will be noticed on removing the stopper. The little specks will settle to the bottom, where they appear as white flocculent masses. - Such ' water should not be used for drinking. A Wise Hawk. Albany. Herald: Mr. H. M. Beall, re ceiver of the Linn County Bank, and another gentleman recently walked over to the Excelsior prune ore hard between Albany and Corvallis. On the way they saw a large hawk flying over a field in search of prey. A Chinese pheasant arose and flew away with such sudden force against a telegraph wire that it was instantly killed. Mr. Beall took the bird, which was plump and fat, and tied it carefully in a dense bush, intending to get it on their return, but when thejcame back they found that the hawk had kept an eye upon the proceeding and had hunted out the pheasant and made a meal of it. It was an intellectual hawk and, like some people, was looking for soft snaps. it For Years," Bays C arb ra E. Stock weu of Chester field, S.

NO DISEASE baa ever presented so many peculiarities as LaGrippe. No disease leaves its victims so debilitated, useless, aleemens. nerveless, as LaGriPDe. Mr. D. W. Hilton, state agent of the Mut ual Life Insurance Co., of Kentucky, says: "In 1889 and '90 I had two severe attacks of LaGrippe, the last one attacking my ner vous system with such severity that my life was despaired of. I had not slept for more than two months except by the use of nar cotics that stupefied me, but gave me no rest. I was only conscious of intense mental weakness, agonizing bodily pain and the fact that I was hourly growing weaker. When in this condition. I commenced using Dr Miles' Restorative Nervine. In two days I began to Improve and in one month's time I was cured, much to the surprise of all who knew of my condition.

Man Found Dead Under the Pilot of a Locomotive. Yesterdav morniner about half-past 2 o'clock Sheriff Driver was notified that a dead man had been found on the railroad track near the freight depot in this city, supposed to have been run over by the freight train that passed west about half-past 1 o'clock. Me came down town immediately; but be fore he arrived at the place where the remains lay the locomotive from the round house in passing up the track had draerered the bodv about 50 yards. and it was taken from under the pilot in front of the electric power house It was in a terriblv manerled condition both legs being cut off and the left arm completely severed. Coroner Butts beine notified had the remains re moved to the undertaking establish ment of Mr. Wm. Michell and sum moned the followingjury to hold the inquest: F. Gabel, D. DeWolf, E. L. Fain, 3. P. M. Briggs, H. Liebe and Frank Menefee. Several witnesses were examined, but no iUentififat.inu of the man could be ascertained. Aiuoi- hearing the testimony the following verdict was rendered.: "We, the jury empanelled by W. H, Butts, coroer of Wasco county, Ore gon, to inquire into the cause of the death of the body before us, after hear- lnerthe testimony of tne witnesses, nnd thaf the body is of a man 5 feet and 8 inches in heierht, weieht about 160 pounds, sandy complexioned, with dark brown hair ana sandy mustacne. dressed with two pairs of overalls, and red undersmrt.cotton snirt, blue duck ing blouse or "jumper," new No. 9 Congress gaiter shoes, and good black telt hat. We find no other mark by which he could be identified, and his name is unknown to ua. We find that he came to his death by beine; i over by Freight No. 21, going west A. M. on the 19th day of May, 1895, probably while trying to board the train for a free ride, and that his death is not due to the fault or neglect of anv one except himself, so far as we are able to learn." After the inquest was held the man's name was ascertained to be Chas. De- Prest, aged about 25 or 30 years, and he had been working for Mr. A. M Kelsay at his farm below the city. He came here from Yakima, where he worked for some time, and where he was known as . Jerry Coleman and "Texas." It is not known whether he has any relatives in this country; but he is supposed to be Canadian by birth. A Box of Fish Missing. Mr. C. F. Lauer is accustomed to feave the boxes of salmon that he desires shipped on the sidewalk, and the express company's wagon comes around every night before the arrival of the east bound train and takes them to the office. Last night he left a box of about 80 pounds in the usual nlace directed to Dayton, Wash., and this morning, observing that it was gone he supposed tne company nad snipped it. Upon making inquiry he found that it nad not been received by tne express company, and believes it to have been stolen. He suspects no one of the larceny, and is in a quandary to imagine who would purloin a box of fish. The sheriff has been informed of the facts, and a thorough investigation will be made. The City Bonds. Recorder Dufur received a telegram yesterday from Theis & Barroll, of Spokane, accepting the form of bond presented, and stating that they would require a resolution of the council be fore the transaction would be com plete. It will take fifteen or sixteen davs for the bonds to be lithocrraohed. when they will be properly filled out by the city officials, and then trans mitted to the New York Security and Trust Co., New York, to hold them until Theis & Barroll pay the purchase money, when tne JNew York company will deliver the bonds to the Spokane firm and transmit tne money to the city. The earliest date at which these pre liminaries can be consummated will be about the 10th of June. Injured by a Fall. Wm. Baxter, about 40 years of age, an employe of the O. R. & N. Co.. yes terday morning about 10 o'clock, while in an intoxicated condition, fell over a bluff north of the railroad camp a few miles west of the city, and lay at the foot of the cliff in an insensible con dition until found last nignt. ue was carried to the camp, and Dr. O. C. Hol lister called, who ascertained the in juries to be very serious, consisting of a compound fracture oi tne arm and bruises about the head and internally. The doctor applied the usual surcical remedies, and the patient is restinc as easily as could be expected. ' LAND TBANSFEB8, Dealings In Dirt In this City and. Vicinity. May 17 C. P. Odell and R. H.

Small boys are in the habit of mak- ii . j ing tne rauruau uouuu a reuuezvous. and amusing themselves by riding on passing trains. The employes of the O. R. & N. Co. frequently drive them off; but it seems impossible to keep them away. So far. no accident has happened; but if this habit is con tinued one may happen some day that will cause sorrow to the parents. It is fiO place' for. boys, and if there are serious consequences the company should not be held responsible. Par ents should have a guard over them, and keep them from frequenting -dangerous places. A Load of Berry-Pickers. The steamer Dalles City took 120 berry-pickers up to Hood River yester day, says the Telegram of Monday. The strawberry crop in that district 18 about ready to be gathered, and it promise to be an abundant one. It is estimated that 60 carloads of berries will be shipped from there to points as far east as Omaha. Comparatively few of them will be marketed here. There is always great rivalry between Hood River and Mount Tabor growers to see which will get their fruit into market first. This season the Mount Tabor growers got their fruit in just 24 hours ahead of their rivals. Opera Honse Tonight. The World's Fair Comedy and Spec ialty Co. will give an entertainment at the opera house tonight, consisting of many clever feats. The company will be headed by the original Bowen and Walters introducing their acrobatic trick cabin, and M. LeCompt will han dle melted lead and hot bars of iron the same as a child plays with its toys. There are other artists of ability, who will aid in the performance of the evening. They cater to refined tastes, and there will not be a word or action that would offend the most fastidious. The price of admission will be 25 and 35 cents. And They Were Tried. The recorder wore a smile on his countenance this morning, and on in quiry being made by the pencil pushers said there were two arrests made last night of persons who were drunk and disorderly on the streets. One was fined $20, because his offense in this regard had been repeated on different occasions, and the other one, it being the first time he had fallen by the way side, a decree was entered that he pay $5 into the city treasury. There are streets to be improved, and these men will be both ornamental and use ful in this department of industrial labor. Firemen, Attention! All firemen are requested to attend a meeting of the department this even ing, in the cbuncil room at 8 o'clock, to take into consideration matters con nected with the firemen's annual tour nament to be held in Vancouver, Wash., during the month of Septem ber.
