DON'T PATRONIZE THEM.
Some of tbe oollosenl type firms of
ouroonntry have oombined into a "type
trust." However, there are aome good
firms outaide of tbe truBt, and we be
lieve it il the duty of all newspaper! to
patronize them, and drop, like a "hot
potato," all ooncerni in tbe combine.
It ia tbe result of an unboly acbeme to
force printing material np to a figure
where they may reap enormous profit.
Tf wa newsnaoer men Will refuse to
have anything to do with any firm thnt
belongs to this organization, tbe bwck
bone of the trust will not last long.
Messrs. Tutura A Bowen, of Portland,
are among seme of tbe firms tbut were
forced to go out of business by the type
trust. This is only one of many.
Trusts are as obnoxious to a printer as
anyone else.
Thb Courier Journal, like other East
ern papers, is alter tbe 64 oent dollar.
It forgets to mention that tbe dollar of
today 'is worth just as muoli as tbe
dollar of '70, only that it is measured by
gold which has eubanoed 40 to CO per
oent It also forgeta to note that tbe
whole is tbe result of adverse legislation,
so far as silver ia concerned; that
every Amerioan product except gold,
and not artificially affected, is bearing
tbe same proportion of loss as silver.
In fact, it overlooks the truth that as we
approach nearer to tbe single standard,
. as a world, tbe more dijlionlt it ia to
pay debts, beoauae as we have often said
it takes more to buy tbe necessary
money (gold) to pay a debt With deBr
money as a oiroulating medium and a
possible "free raw material" proposition
staring us in tbe face, no wonder times
are so bard and debts difficult to pay.
Mits. BniDuitT Nihhn Lavin, better
known as Bridget Gallagher, who died
in tbe Stookton insane asylum In Jan

for probate. II was made in May, 1886,

To show what an enterprising lad ean

Now sinos President Cleveland bas
made a positive aud unimpeachable rec
ord on the Chinese question, let us
hear from democratic organs In future
campaigns that their party is "the only

M. u'Aksohval, the oelebrated Frenob
scientist, claims that death by eleotrioty,
suob as the authorities now use in
New York, is but suspended auimatiou,
and that the real death ia caused by
the surgeons knife. The whole thing
is as barbarous as on can well
msgine. Capital punishment doe
not bring baok to life tbe first
viotim of murder, nor does it set an
example that prevents others from kill
ing. JJut li judicial murder must be
insisted upon, let it done in the old way
by tbe rope.
The legislative branch of our govern
ment bas passed tbe Oeary act, the
judicial baa settled all points as to its
constitutionality, and now nothing re
mains but to enforce the law. There is
nut enough available cash in tbe treas
ury to carry out the striot letter of the
law, yet it is not necessary to wait till
the next session of congress to make a
commencement. Tbe notion of the
present administration, so far, is not
very reassuring on tbe Chinese ques
tion. Sollivan has lately distinguished
himself by assaulting an attorney on a
train in wbiob both were traveling.
The latter shook bands with a friend
who waa witb tbe Sullivan party, which
happened to be directly in front of the
ex-ohampion. This angered the brute,
and be kicked tbe lawyer in tbe groin.
Though an one-armed man, tbe attorney
resisted tbe assault and would have
given Mr. Sullivan a well-deserved
trounoing bad not others interfered.
Yod can always judge a town by its
newspaper. Never buy town lots or

a bill at a saloon. It mutters not bow

It is said that the first question that
Cleveland asks an applicant is "Do you
drink?" If the Amerioan people had
have turned cuteohisers and asked this
question before election, Orover would

From the Portland Telegram.
We think we are progressive in Amer
ica, but even the eonservatives in Ger
many have just deolared that bimetal
lism is a foremost party principle.
Without reseive, they pledge their
support to it. Thus the cause of silver
grows stronger each year. Not five
years ago would oue enthusiast iu Ger
many have predicted that tbe niouey
question would oome so earnestly to tbe
front. Germany ia both au agricultural
aud a mauufaotntiug empire. It is
thickly populated by peasants as well as
by urban residents. A powerful mon
archy, it still is oouipelled to reooguize
the voioe of the people. France is prac
tically in favor of international bimetal
lism, Urruniny oauuot stem the current
within its owu borders, Belgium's
masses are demanding it, and England
finds the sentiment iu its favor growing
taster almost thau the home rule idea.
If tbe popular w ill ooutiunss to vigor
ously assert itself iu both European and
American nations, it is not a rash
prophecy that by 18;l5 au international
silver standurd will bedeclared. Finan
ciers may argue, bankers may object,
and one class of politicians may protest,
but there can be no denial of the settiug
of the tide iu favor of silver. Even
grauting the hypothesis that it is wrocg,
it cannot be kept buck. There must ba
a trial, Silver's strength is such tbut
no theorizing will auswer. Actual aud
universal experiment alone will sullioe.

"Frank," as he wbs usually called,
waa born in the Willamette valley but
when quite young, moved with bis
parents to Heppner where he has re-
aided ever since. Some years ago, he
learned the printer's trade which he
followed as long as his health would
permit, working on both papers in
Eleppner and others in the vicinity.
Oyer two years ago he began to be
trouble! with bis limns, which finally
terminated in consumption.
He was a bright young man, energetic
to tbe last, and though his health waa
very bad this spring, he persisted in
assisting to earn his own living, canvass
ing for several books. The Gazette's
editor was intimately acquainted witb
him, as a pupil of Heppner's public
school, as a printer and citizen of the
town, and can sny for him now in
death, as be could if Frank was alive,
none but the highest words of commen
dation.
He was a member of Heppner's
M. E. church, end died a consistent
Christian.

Eastern Oregon. Mr. B. 8. Pague
makes the following report from East
ern Oregon: Warm dear weather has
prevailed during the week; in some of
the interior oounties con-injurions
frosts oocured on tbe 9th and 10th.
Correspondents all agree that no more
favorable weather oould have prevailed ;
no rain is reported to have fallen ex
cept an occasional sprinkle, the mean
temperature ranged from 48 to 56 de,
grees. The favorable weather has
caused vegetation to make rapid growth.
Peaches are somewhat injured, and will
not be a full orop. Other varieties of
fruit are fully up to the average. Lo
cust and Cottonwood trees are ooming
into leaf in the Columbia river valley.
East and south of tbe Blue mountains
the fruit buds are swelling and but few
are so far iu bloom, bummer fallowing
is about done. Fall sown rye is bead
ing in Wasco, Sherman, Gilliam, and
Morrow counties. Fall wheat is from
four to ten inobes bigh and spring
grain is coming up. Some wheat is
jointing. Wire worms continue to do
damage in Sherman county. Cutting
uf hay on Columbia bottom lands bus
oouimenoed. Sheep shearing is nearly
done iu the Columbia river valley
oounties and au extra good wool clip
bas been secured. Wool is now being
hauled to the warehouses, ditches are
being prepared tor irrigation iu Mal
heur and Harney counties. Peach and
oherry treeB are ia full bloom in Lake
county. Advancement in the season
has been made, but the vegitation and
farm work is in Grant, Crook and Kla
math oounties behind that in tbe other
counties. There has been a Bteady rise
in tbe Columbia and tributary rivers
during the past week. Tbe river at
Portland is today 16.3, a higher point
than ever before at this date in May
when higher water followed in June.
The river will have a steady continuous
rise for the next six days, when for a
few days it may become stationary.
A Shortage. The Br.ker City Dem
ocrat learns from a prominent citizen of
Grant county tbat the quiet neighbor
hood of Canyon City is considerably
stirred up over the announcement tbat
the postmistress of that plaoe, Mrs. C.
W. Parrish, is short in her acoount with
tbe government in the sum of about
$2500. The shortage developed when
the TJ. S. postal inspector, now at
Canyon City, went over the books of the
office. Tbe lady's bondsmen have been
notified and tbey will have to make tbe
shortage good. Mrs. Parrish is the wife
of attorney C. W. Parrish, an estimable
lady heretofore, and it is tbe supposition
tbat members of her family have brought
about ber embarrassing predicament in
which she finds berselt. It is hoped
that Mrs. Parrish will be able to exoner
ate herself from all blame.
In Statu Quo." Senator Kaley
returned this morning from his Salem
trip, and was interviewed concerning
the branch asylum matter. He said
that no further action will be taken by
tbe board until a decision is rendered
in tbe injunction suit brought to re
train tbe building of a state soldiers'
home at Roseburg. This will be teard
before Judge Burnett on the 20th irjat . ,
aud will atterwardB be taken before tbe
supreme court. It will probably be
decided by that body early in June.
Should the decision prove favorable to
tbe state, tbe corps of asylum physicians
will visit the places in Eastern Oregon
that are bidders for the branch asylum
and report as to tbe healtbfulness of the
different localities. Until then thei
asvlum question remains "in statu quo.'
