ASTORIA, OREGON:
THURSDAY ALAKOH 8, 1SSS
Tmm star route trials are still on.
The defense begun yesterday. One
of tlie strongest pleas for defense
is feltat the government "only re
iterates oid charges." This is the
Tweed Ring line of defense. It is
worse than no defense at all, unless
it oan be shown that the charges
whan thoy were brought in the
first place were thoroughly refuted,
or tlsat they do not raise a prima -fnoie
case. When a man has
nothing to say in answer to serious
charges against himself, except
tlmt tiiey were brought ten years
or five years or one year ago, he
simply announces that for ten
your or five years or one
yoar he has sat down in si
lent submission under the charges.
Tkxt a charge is old if it has gone
unrein tod creates a presumption
not that the charge is false but
that the charge is true. To cite
t)Ue age of the charge as a defense
to it indicates there is no other.
Sometimes itindicatescnly th con
fidence of the man who enters this
pitta tlmt, since he is still at large,
ft wIU not be possible to bring
him to punishment on a charge
wMoh is still untried. It is mere
ly r ooufesston and defiance.

Now that congress lias ad
eitrted wid there is no chance to
"pootisct"5 hiiv tiling-, not even the
J&inif,ricM4t u-orkinp;innn, it is witli
peouHar regret -vve learn that cer
tain Swiss villages raise money by
txo6 to seinl tlieir aged, crippled,
iTiMtic and hopeless paupers to the
United States. The business has
gout on for years. Probably the
Swiss federal government has not
the power to prevent it, and if it
lmd the power the government at
Washington probably has no more
menus of constraining the Sv.iss
foderal government at Berne to
exort that power than the United
Sistes government thirty 3rears
ago had of forcing South Carolinti
to respect the rights of British ne--tco
soaruon.

TiiiEitu Is nothing uncommon
says tite Oregonian, in the use of
the expression, "swallowed up a
ifortuue,' but at the present price
bf beaf in the cit of Portland a
city that, six years ago, boasted
tSio l)oet and cheapest beef in
AniaricR it begins to look a great
deal like eating twenty-dollar
jpioeos. On Tuesday of this week
a butcher in the notth end of the
oHy sent to a brother knight of the
oloavor doing business in the south
ond of town, for a choice toast,
laying, "ae-iid me the best ten
pound roast you have got and 'll
p you retail price for it.v The
bmtohor charged his Jrere dc loin
' 25 ceuts a pound for it. "What
tlie consumer paid would be a
iStartiKiig question.
