OTIS PATTERSON, A. W. PATTERSON, . Editor Business Manager IT WAS NOT rASSED. From The Dalles Chronicle. A subscriber recently wrote to the New York World as follows : ''I want to get the names and ad dresses o the members of the sen ate and tlie house who voted for the bill to demonetize silver; also the names of the chairmen of the committees that recommended it, and the date of the passage of the bill. F. N. M." Marquette, Mich. No bill ever passed "to demone tize silver." Silver was demone tized by a trick, and not more than three men in the city of Washing ton knew when it was done or within a year thereafter, even, that it had been done. This demoneti zation was the result of a combina tion among half a dozen of the leading gamblers of the Gold Board, which has its ramification abroad. The coinage committee of the house reported a "bill to codify the miot laws." The necessity for that codification was well known, and the chairman explained that no change had been made in any of the laws, but that the different acts bearing upon the mint had boon brought together under one section. The bill was not even road except by title. It was passed without one dissenting voto. In the section enumerating the differ ent lawful silver cuius of the Unit ed States the word "dollar" was omitted, beginning ''the half dol lar," etc. No one noticed the omission. Kvon a careful reading of the bill by evory member of congress would not have reveille. the trick to any one of thorn. No one was thinking of tho demone. ti.ation of uilver. No human wing ou the fuco of tho earth had over Hiiggohlml such a thing. The silver dollar was at three cents premium over tho gold dollar, aud when the gold dollar was quoted at 110 the silver dollar was quotod at 111). The word had been strickon out h some member of tho committor without the knowlodgo of his uu- BUHpoctmg colIoHguos; but who did it has never been diecoverod In after years each member of th coinago rommittoo cxpresHly din- c-liiitued nny knowledge of the trick or Hint Iia knew or had heard t lint the word "dollar" had been omitted Tho bill went to the netiate, nn referred to it committee on coin age, nam. tied perfunctorily, re ported ly Mr. Sherman (the chair. man) to tho senate, and panned on Mr. Sherman's ttriHuratico that it mndd 110 changn in tho law, only bringing all tho different lawn to gether. After tho bill was at tho secret that silver had been de luotictized m carefully kept No member if tho government knew it Sis monlha after, ami agaiu s year after, President (Irant, iioi knowing Mint silver had lieeu ile monetized, advocabsl tho coinage ot more silver dollar.

Hon. Thos. H. Ton-! gue heads the list of delegates elected by a majority of 100 votes. Mr. Tongue is a friend of the white metal and is quoted in the Sun of May 23 as saying: "I am a bimetal ist and believe in the use of silver that is consistent with the main tenance of a parity with gold, and give preference to the American product." The convention throughout was characterized by good feeling and harmony among the delegates, and while the free silver resolution was counted out the bimetallists ac cepted their defeat gracefully and do not consider the action a repu diation or denial of the strong sen timent existing in this state among a majority of the republican voters in favor of free silver at a ratio of 16 to 1. Speculation at this time is idle as to what action the repub lican national convention will take in regard to silver. It is over a year yet ere the republican nation al convention meets and in the meantime the friends of free silver will be actively at work gaining How Jeremiah Judkios By James Judson Martelle.J The summons being answered by the boneet Jerry opening the dour with the full expectation of facial? no other personage than the agent whose time was about due to make the annual oall on Jerry for the interest on the mortgage. Imagine Jerry's happy surprise, how ever, when upon opening the door be was not to meet the undesirable oall from the agent but the countenance of an entire straDger greeted him instead. He was a man of apparently about 40 years of age, neatly attired, for that section of country, in "store clothes,'' light hair and moustache and dancing blue eyes, which betokened much fun and merriment in the general makeup of the man. The stranger readily acoepted Jerry's honest but brusque invitation to "oum in an' rest," and introducing himself as Grant Rogers, Esq., representing H. & R., dealers in general merchandise and furnishing goods of nearly every de scription, of Heppner, soon mde him self at home and on very easy terms with Jerry and bis estimable wife, who by this time, "primped up" in her best, ha1 marl A Vtoi a nnaora nna Miponrlv i. ii...' -rHv,v..u,w. uOW uuuvbub uuny lueir cause. to0( atter Bcouring the younger Judkins' in all 14 delegates were elected with soap and hot water and vesting to the National Republican League, tbeui with clean aprons entered the Six of the delegates are from the dioiDf 8nd 8i,tinK room' combined in state at large and four from each T TWIT . . each busily engaged trying to poke the congressional district. fiBt of .h(,ir flft hand dnwn thair th mat.

There is nothing singular about this fact. "Jaok," espeoially, never misses a meal. During the evening repast "Jack" be came involved with some strapping stran ger over thesubjeotof "single tax." The subjeot waxed warm. Hotter and hotter grew the argument and a free fight seemed imminent. Mr. Sturgiss saw that if it oome to that "Jaok" wouldn't be any match for the stranger, though be was a sort of a Oorbett in the argu ment, Mr. Sturgiss then quietly inter rupted tne animated conversation to say that Judge Fee and himself were out with Mr. Jackson honi ig to benefit bis bealtb; that he was slightly orszy, and not to pay any attention to bis vapor ings. "Jaok" was floored, but not entirely knooked off the earth, admitting that be was a little "off," but declaring that Mr. rjtnrgiss' populist idea were responsible for bis trouble, as be talked nothing else while out on the trip. , A strong populist happened to be in the crowd and Uturgiss couldn't shake him the remainder of the evening, which was some revenge even though "Jack" was evaded by the entire household and oouldn't get up a conversation daring the rest of bis stay.
