DEFEAT OF BAKER PASHA.
Cowardice of the Egyptians.
CAiEO.Feb. 5,-Advices regarding
the defeat of Baker Pasta are con-
flictintr. but the followinfdfitails hmra
bten received: Baker Pasha began
his advance from the entrenchment
at Trinkitat Sunday. His forces con
sis ed of 3000 troops, badly armed
and short of ammunition, many of'
whom showed an unwillingness to
proceed. Baker Pasha had sent from
Trinkitat to Cairo an urgent appeal
for rifles to replace the old muskets,
with which a number of his troops
were armed. In reply he received
orders to try and force his way to
Tokar without delay, and with the
English officers connected with the J
expedition uegan me marcn wiin tne
-expectation of defeat Spies had
falsely reported the road clear with
the exception of small bands of rebels.
Monday forenoon a portion of the
advance encountered the body of
Isman Degna's troops, and the fight
ensued, which was more of a rout
than a battle.
Suakem, Feb. 6. Baker Pasha lost
all his camels and baggage in the
fight. Most of the Egyptians officers
and men bolted. Colonel Sartoris
tried hard to rally them, but without
success. Many were pursued into
Trinkitat The European police and
Turkish infantry were cut to pieces.
Fourteen European and three native
officers are missing. The fight began
by a few Arab horsemen attacking
Baker Pasha's cavalry, which fled.
Baker then formed a square, which ,
the enemy surrounded. The rest of i

London, Feb. 6. On receipt of the
news of Baker Pasha's defeat, the
admiralty issued telegraphic orders
stopping troops on the way to India.

published. It confirms the report

London, Feb. 6. All special dis

are hopelessly lost The fact that
the British gunboats left Trinkitat
creates a bad impression upon the
minds of the Egyptians, and encour

The rebels captured five guns, COO,
pounds of ammunition, dOO riues and

have
. A correspondent writingf rom West :
Union, under date of February 4,-1
says: Here is an important question
ihat we cannot understand: Why is
it that citizens of Oregon do not have
fiqual rights with the citizens of other
states of the Union? In 1847 there
"was a number of our citizens robbed,
outraged and murdered. There -were
Dr. Whitman and others. For this
XJovernor Abernethy proclaimed war
against the Indians. The citizens
rallied and, under the stars and
tripes, in January and February,
1848, chastised them. After six
months' suffering, the volunteers re
turned and wro honorably dis
charged. The United States assumed
the war debt and paid it, or pretended
to do so. But that is not the ques
tion. The question is, "Why is it
that no pension is allowed a wounded
of disabled soldier of the war?" Pen
sions have been applied for, and the
commissioner informs us that there is
' jfo record that Colonel Gilliam, or the
captains under him, was ever mus
tered into the service. Certainly
there must be a record at Washington
thas they were paid for such services.
Have the people been neglected for
thirty-six years, or have their rights
ieen disregarded? -Is .there anyone
' id ask for us our rights in congress?

Beecher On Polygamy.
, At the Brooklyn (N. Y.) New Eng-
(land, dinner, lienry Ward Ueecner,
I replying to the toast, "The Pilgrims
( and Puritans ," stepped far out of his
i 77 A deliver an elaborate apology
for Mormon polygamy. Admitting
that polygamy "is not the outgrowth
of civilization," he insisted that it
must not and cannot be restricted by
law, and should be let alone to the
rectifying influences of moral and in
tellectual forces. He compared all
legal assaults upon it to the efforts of
a cat to eat a wasp. "She darts at it:
she scrambles with it; but she can't
chew it up," said the reverend and
eccentric philosopher. He regards it
as he does any other "mistaken be
lief in politics or religion," and calls
any man "who wants to extirpate it
by force or law, a Puritan," as distin
guished from a Pilgrim, who is a man
believing in moral forces. Itis noth
ing to Beecher, nor is it much to the
argument of the question, either, that
he is iu the minority. A man of a
cause may be right, just, wise, and
still opposed by the great mass of
intelligence. That was the situation
of the Abolitionists for half a century.
They were right, but the majority
were against them. The slaveholders
were as a thousand to one polyga
mist; and the law sustained them
the law of the United States; where
as the Jaw of this country condemns
pdlygamy as a great crira against
nature, and so do the laws of all en
lightened countries. Like the polyg
amic Is, the slaveholders justified their
institution on Biblical and religious
grounds. "Solomon the wise, the
iavome ? ea: .&V .? ormons,
crimes invoked for its destruction.
Mr. Beecher was not "a Pilgrim"
men. ne was lor lorce anu law to
I with the answer: "This is our relig-
ion. it was boiomon s. it is a .Di
vine institution with us, which hu
man reason and human law may not
touch. Wo are above the law and
the constitution wherein these are
against our religion." Well, supposo
they should go out and make slaves
of tho Indian tribes in Utah and set
UP that slavery is
a part of their
njnajJ.ed:
Denny
from Oregon, and Senator Dolph and
Kepresentative George, together with
other Republicans on the Pacific
coast, have espoused his cause and
propose to see that justice is done
him.
In consideration of the British
Columbia government having agreed
to hand over certain provincial lands
to the Dominion government, the
Canadian parliament will be asked to
vote S750.000 to aid in the construc
tion of a line of railway -on Vancou
ver island, also 8250,000 to pay the
provincial government of British Co-
Innibia or the purchase of a dry
aocK at n.squimiiii, ana sucn aaai
tion sum as may have been expended
in its construction. Should parlia
ment ratify this provisional agree
ment entered into by the provincial
and Dominion governments, the work
of construction on the railway will
be proceeded with immediately."
The Sun says: There are two ends
to be served by building the Cana
dian Pacific Bailway. One is that it
may serve as the means of protect
ing the Dominion from warlike de
signs on the part of the United States
and the other is to sell the landp.
From such sales it is hoped that the
cost of construction may.be reim
bursed, while the road will be pro
vided with something to do in trans
porting the products of the country
settled along the line. But as for
paying expenses and dividends upon
the Pacific Bailroad, whew!
Life does not count by years. Some
suffer a lifetime in a day, and so grow
old between the rising and setting of
the sun.
Proof Against Blzzards.
Messrs. Steed & Co., druggists, at
Bethel, Minn., says we sell more of
the great pain-cure, St. Jacobs Oil,
than all the rest we have in the store.
It never fails to oure.

Conn's drug store, opposite Ociden
hctel, Astoria.
The New Cardinals.
Of tho six cardinals to be created
by the pope the 21st of February, one
is certain to be an American, another
an Irishman. Archbishop Gibbons,
of Baltimore, it is generally believed,
will get the red hat to be sent to this
country, although Archbishop Wil
liams, of Boston, is also mentionedin
connection with the prospective
honor. Dr. Williams took first rank
at the recent conference at Borne fls
theologian, debater, and as an ag
gressive defender of American ideas
and polity. All the prelates from the
United States made an excellent im
pression, it appears, but the Boston
bishop stood high above the accom
panying ecclesiastics. For these rea
sons and because he is a native Amer
ican, educated in American public
schools, a hearty republican, and in
his younger days was a warm sup
porter of Garrison, Phillips, and the
abolitiojiLsis. his being honored by
Borne would be grateful to thousands
of Americans outside the pale of the
Roman church.
Concerning the California and Ore
gon land grant, the S. F. Chronicle
of the Cth says: "The grant was made
eighteen years ago, and the road
built soon afterwards nearly to its
present terminus. Then, as the coun
try beyond was hard to penetrate, as
the trade of Oregon did not seem to
warrant it, and as congress seemed
inclined to give all the granted lands,
work was discontinued. The mana
gers of the Central Pacific felt sure of
the grant, and as they had obtained,
at a comparatively small expenditure,
the trade of the rich rally of the
Sacramento, they could afford to wait
for the rest Accordingly they waited
till Yillard got possession of the
Northern Pacific, and began to make
preliminary survevs with a view to
connecting San Francisco with his
Oregon system. Then they awoke to
the danger of threatened competition,
and agreed with him to extend their
road from Bedding, the then ter
minus, to the state line, where it
would meet the Willamette valley
road. It is this programme which
they are engaged on at present,
though judging from what we hear
of the difficulties of the route, its
completion is remote, and still further
postponed, perhaps, by the personal
troubles of Villar J.
Morrison's bill for tariff reduction
proposes to put lumber for wharfing
and in unhewn state on tho free list
This practically abolishes the duty on
lumber on the Pacifio coast, for Brit
ish Columbia lumbermen, with tho
Chinese whom they employ almost
exclusively, can send unhewn logs
into Washington territory by the
millions, and drive tho white men
there and in Oregon out of business.
The lumbermen of Pugot Sound, in
such competition, would either have
to cut down the wages of white em
ployes to tho Chinese standard or
leave the business. Chinamen can bo
imported into British Columbia and
wages can be kept down, whore as no
man on this side of tho line could
create such competition in wages.
