New.YORK, Feb. 4. A dispatch to
the Tribune from Havana says General
Blanco baa returned frorn a trip to the
western pronces which, put in the
best possible light, has failed to come
up to the expectations raised in
Madrid. The Sagasta ministry can
not longer delude itself with the false
hope that the adhesion of a few minor
nsurgent chiefs is evidence that the
insurrection is disintegrating from
within. Its power of resistance is
shown by the fact that in all the mili
tary operations which have taken
place during the last fortnight, the
advantage has been with the insurg
ents. The situation is that persuasion has
failed to win the insurgents to
autonomy, and the army has had no
better success. The intransigents
have their remedy. They are making
threatening demonstrations against
the captain-general, and telling him
the situation is insupportable, and
that the only practical solution is for
him to go home. ,
Though Weyler has many partisans,
they do not look Tor him U. return to
Cuba in command. The recall of Blan
co wauld be a confession that his policy
has been a failure. It is not expected
that the Sagasta ministry will confess
itself out of office in this manner.
They talk vaguely to the effect that
the army must be made supreme ib
enforcing peace, as though the army
bad not been supreme foe years.
It is the frank judgment of compe- j
tent military lodges that- the Spanish
troops in Cuba are in a wbrse condition
than the insurgents,- though 'he
etrength and the resources of the latter
may be exaggerated.

HlLLSBORO, Feb. 4. Gus Wachlina
was hanged in the county courtyard
at 12:15 today.
Fully 00 people saw the death pen
alty inflicted on tne hardened mur
derer.
Tbe crime for which the condemn
ed murderer paid the death penalty
was the killing of John D. Ledrick, a
German farmer, who lived near Corne
lius, in Washington county, April 13,
1895. It was one of the most atrocious
murders ever committed in the state.
Wachline met bis fate unflinching
ly. On the eillows he spoke a few
words of farewell which were not
heard by a dozen spectators. He
stolidly proclaimed his innocence in
his last moment. He kept his eyes on
the ground. Not once did he look
into the eager crowd around him for
the face of friend or foe in the small
enclosure surrounding the death trap.
With his head bowed, the bla.-k cap
was pulled down over bis face, and
like a statue the doomed man awaited
the end. The doomed man's last words
were: "I die an innocent man. Tbe
sworn statement I made aras true. May
the Lord Jesus take me."

Relief Expedition Sailed on the steamer
Elder Saturday.
Portland, Feb. 6. With 371 pas

expedition, 56 horses, 50 dogs and 1150
tons of freight, the steamer Eider left
Alaska wharf for the fur north, at
10:30 o'clock, last night. Though the
wharf was well filled with sightseers,
it was not crowded to suffocation, for
many of the Cider's passengers were.
from outside of Poptland, and had no
friend's hero to see them off.
Some 200 tons of the Elder's freight
was for the government relief ex
pedition, 400 tons was miners' outfits
and 550 tons general freight. All the
freight save a few outfits was aboard
in the afternoon, and the wondering
and objecting dogs were taken aboard
while the passengers were embarking.
Everything went off smoothly and
when the gang plank was pulled up,
and the big steamer swung out into
the river she was given as rousiug a
cheer as that which followed her on
her first trip northward.
Prosperity comes quickest to the
man whoso liyer is in good condition.

victoria, tub. e. Passengers oi
the City of Seattle, which arrived
early yesterday morning, bring C a
story of a double murder at Skagway
just before the sailing of the steamer,
and ' of the p-obable lynching of the
chief culprit.
Deputy United States Marshal J. M.
tiowen ana Andrew .dcuratn were
shot and killed in Rice's variety
theater by Edward Fay, a bartender,
cay was being guarded at last ac
counts by a committee of citizens, who
hud closed the theater.
Marshal Bowen was on his way to
obtain medical assistance for his wife,
wno bad snortly before become a
mother, when the affair occured. The
shooting grew out of a brawl in which
McGrath was a participant. - He be-
came involved in a quarrel with one of
tne female attaches of the theater,
whom he accused of stealing $140 from
his pocket. Rice, tbe proprietor of
the place and a number of "heelers,"
it is alleged,, jumped on McGrath, in
flicting several wounds in the back of
his head, McGrath escaped, and
went out of the place to get his gun.
He met Deputy Marshal Rowen and
told him the story. Rowen started for
the tbeater with McGrath, the latter
entering the house with tbe rest.
When McGrath entered the house, he
immediately took off bis coat and
struck at Fay with his fist. Fay im
mediately drew his revolver and fired,
tho bullet striking McGrath in the
groin. He dropped to a chair without
a word. Rowen turned ' to pull his
revolver from his pocket, when Fay
fired ajain, the bullet striking Rowen
in the stomach. Rowen reeled but did
not fall, and reached tbe street, where
a friend found him. He died of
internal hemorrhage two hours later-
Marshal Rowen's wife, who had only
that morning become a mother, suc
cumbed to the shock on hearing of her
husband's death, and their child ex
pired shortly after.
.'Fay was arrested by a self-consti
tuted police committee. - The original
intention was to send him to .Juneau
by the first boat, but on Mrs. Rowen's
death it was decided to give him a
short shift. He was to be hacged by
order of the citizens' committee the
day the Seattle left.
BLANCO MUST FALL.
Cannot Much Longer Hold Ont Against the
Opposition.
New York, Feb. 7. A Havana dis
patch to the Tribune-says:
Tbe government is looking for a
scape-goat. If one is feund, Madrid
will be satisfied a while longer, and
tbe present situation may continue.
Nevertheless the prevailing view is
that explanations cannot be made
which will be satisfactory. So much
was expected from Gereral Blanco's
continuous .rip around tbe island and
so little has come from it that the dis
appointment felt cannot be coacealed.
The captain-general's promise that
this month will bring peace seems to
haye been taken literally in Spain. It
was not so here. The statement that
the captain-general was on a trip of in
spection engaged chiefly in visiting
the hospitals, does not satisfy the
hopes that had been entertained.
Tbe iutransigentes in Cuba may re
frain from open demonstrations of
hostility, though they are becoming
restless. What they will do cannot be
predicted with certainty, but they are
not hesitatiug to spur the conserva
tives in Spain to action, and this
brings the government back to the
question of the scapegoat.
General Pando apparently thinks he
may be selected for that role. Tbe
Weylerites are watching their chances
and Gene.-al Seguere has returned to
the peninsula, ready to condemn
Pando's plan of military operations
in the eastern part of the island.
Many things prevent them from pub
licly deriding tbe captain-general, but
among them many show a tendency to
demand evidences of tbe peace that is
coming. The sick soldiers who are
brought from eastern provinces to
Havana military hospitals are not evi
dences of it. Their places are taken
by tho new recruits from Spain.

It is stated by Julius Brander, the
projector of tbe enterprise, that the
scale of wages of skilled silk workers
in the United states has been lowered
n the last few years, and that Euro
pean manufacturers are forced to come
here if they would retain their busi
ness in the American market.

ARB TOP TO LIVE IN ALAHKA?
some Requirements That 1111 be Fonad
Indispensable.
Ihe universal article of diet in that
country, depended upon and indispens
able, is bread or biscuit. And to make
the bread and biscuit, either in the
camp or upon the trail, yeast can
not be used it must be baking powder;
and the powder manufactured by pro
cesses of the Royal Baking Powder
Company, miners and prospectors
nave learned, is the only one which
will stand ia that peculiar climate of
coll and dampness and raise the bread
and biscuit satisfactorily.
These facts are very important for
every one proposing to go to Alaska
and the Yukon country to know, for
should he be persuaded by some out
fitter to take one of the cheap' brands
of baking powder,- it will cost just
as much to transport it, atd then when
be opens it for use, after all his labor
in packing it over the long and dif
ficult route, ha will find a solid caked
mass or a lot of spoiled powder, with
no strength and useless. Such a mis
take miirht lead to the most serious
results. Alaska is no dace in which
to experiment in food, or try to econo
mize with your 'stomach. . For use In
such a climate, and under the trying
and fatiguing conditions of life aid
labor in that country, everything must
be the best and the most useful, and
above all it is imperative that all food
supplies shall have perfect keeping
qualities. It is absurd to convey over
such difficult and expensive routes an
article that will deteriorate in transit,
or that will be found when required
for use to have lost a great part of its
value. .
There is no better guide to follow in
tbeso matters than the advice of those
who have gone through similar exper
ience. Mr. McQuesten. who is called
the father of Alaska," after an ex
perience of years upon the trail, in tbe
camp, and in the use of every kind of
supply, says: "We find in Alaska that
the importance of a proper kind of
baking powder cannot be overestimat
ed. A miner with a can of bad baking
powder Is almost helpless in Alaska.
We have tried all sorts, and have been
obliged to settle down to use nothing
but the Royal. It is stronger and car
ries further, but above all things, it Is
the only powder that will endure the
severe climatie changes of the arctic
region. 1 , ..
It is for the same reasons that the
U. S. Government in its relief ex
peditiqns, and Peary, the famous arc
tic traveler, have carried tbe Royal
Baking Powder exclusively.
The Royal Baking Powder will not
cake nor lose its strength either on
board ship or in damp climates, and is
the most highly concentrated and ef
ficientof leaveniag agents. Hence it
is indispensable to every Alaskan out
fit. It, can be bad of any of tbe trad
ing companies in Alaska, but should
the midor procure his supplies before
leaving, be should resist every at
tempt of the outfitter to palm off upon
him any of the other brands of baking
powder, for they will spoil and prove
the cause of great disapoiatment and
trouble.
Rewarded for Bis Treachery.
New i York, Feb. 7. A special to
tbe World from Tampa, Fla., says:
Pio Ramero, who betrayed Arang-
ueren, has been commissioned a lieu
tenant In the Spanlbh army for that
service. Ramero was a scout of
Arangueren's brigade, and was cap
tured by the Spaniards. He was given
the 'option of betraying Arangueren
and getting $500, or being macheted
He chose to lead the Spanish forces to
where they could butcher Arangueren
while he' was practically alone.
Temporarily a Winner .
Detroit, Feb. 5. Governor Pin-
gree today won th first round in his
fight to secure 2-cent railroad fares in
Michigan. Judge Donovan granted a
mandamus to compel a railroad com
paoy to comply with the state law
compelling railroads earning more
than $3000 per mile annually, to issue
mileage books good for all membeys of
a family at 2 cents per m'le.
Pingroe demanded one of these
books, and was refused, and immedl
brought suit.
Fay Was Not Lynched.
Victoria. B. C, Feb. 7. Ed Fay,
murderer of Rowan and McGrath at
Skagway, was not lynched. Ills friends,
headed by "Soapy" Smith, a gambler,
-?anized, and threatened to use their
'ins if Fay was hanged, lay was
' erefore sent to Juneau.
The steamer Tees, which brought
the news, arrived last nlgbt, as did
also the Willapa. They brought cany
miners, but no late' news from the
interior.

A PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT,
Good Work Dona an tas ,' Read. I-aadlag
lata the City From the East.
The work of coverlnglha "brewery
hill with crushed rock, that' was coin
menced by the city about a month-"ago,
is at present about completed.
The city rock crusher was stationed
about half way f p the grade, and from
that place crushed rock s has been
hauled each way from the foot to the
top of the hill, and the road has been
covered with from six to 18 Inches of
fine rock, which when packed will -make
a very durable and solid road
bed. The improvement reaches from
the East end of Second street to the
city limits, a distance of half a mile,
and makes of the brewery grade, which
for several years past has been In fear
ful condition, one of the beat roads la
the county. The cost of the work when -completed
will be about $500. The ex-
pensels botn by the city, the work
having been done under the super
vision of Marshal Lauer. ;
Now if the county would take up the ,
work where the city has left off, aad
cover the road as far out as Eight-Mile
with crushed rock, the most generally
traveled tbroughfare in tbe county ,
would be put in splendid repair. The' .
expense of doing the work would not
be so great from the city limits on the r
south "as it was on the brewery, grade,'
possibly not more than $300 a mile, as
400 "loads of rock per mile would be
about all that would be required, and .
the rock can be crushed and laid down '
for 75 cents a load. More travel passes
over that piece of road. than any other
in the county; in fact, nearly all the
heavy loads come over It, and for . this
reason the county court would be
ustified In expending a considerable
j amount of money" repairing it.
Complimentary So The Dallas.
Industrial Agent Judson, of the O.
R. & N. Co., was interviewed by tbe '
Oregoaian a few days ago regarding
the cattle-men's meeting at Pendleton
and the conveqtlon of wool growers to
be held at The Dalles. Among other
things he said:
"As an illustration of the active' in
terest Eastern Oregon people are
taking in the move for development
and improvement of agricultural re
sources, I was in conference with the '
Commercial Club, at The Dalles, the .
.other day, and I was asked how much
meney would be needed to start the
preparations for holding a woolgrowert
convention. I estimated ' that $100
would do for a starter. 'Ah, well,'
said a prominent member of the club . '
to the committee, 'take $300 and gst
tbe thing going, and there will be no
difficulty about raising more money
when It shall be needed. - We are
bound to make a success of li.' Charles
Hilton, one of the big sheepmen of
Wasco county, promises to see t it
that every sheepman, and woolgrower
of that region will attend the sheep
and wool convention.
"Tbe opera-house has been secured
for the convention, which will be in
connection with the farmers' institute,
under the direction of tbe state agri
cultural college, and there ia absolute '
ly no reason to doubt that it will be a
great success as a public gathering, .
and of much practical value to the
farmers and the wool and mutton
raisers." IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION.
The Co:
lerelal islah Taking Hold of the
Matter of Traasportatloau
Last night a very enthusiastic meet
ing of the executive committee of tbe .
Commercial Club was held in the Club
parlors, the matter under considera
tion being that of transportation.
Numerous plans were laid before the
committee both for extending wagea
and railroads into the interior; but
that which received greatest atten-,
tion was 'the one suggested ,ln these
columns several days ago, of building
a road south toward the Prineville
country with a view to centering the
trade of Crook and Grant counties at
The Dalles.
The members of the nommltte were
well pleased with the plans thus far
presented, and were unanimous for be
ginning Immediate action that will
lead to preliminary work lu that di
rection. The cemmlttee will hold
other meetings in a few days at which .
the possibility of definite action will be
fully discussed, and it is quite evident
when feasible Diana can be outlined a
move will be started to connect The
Dalles by rail with the county to the ;
south.
