ASTOBIA. OREGON:
THURSDAY
-OCTOBER 13.1887
Dubing the three months ending
September 30th, 1887, there -were re
ceived at San Francisco 185,211 cen
tals Oregon and "Washington wheat
The socialistic conference at St
Gall, Switzerland, closed last Thurs
day. The general result of the delib
erations is believed to be the consol
idation of -the socialist party through
out Europe. The conference decided
to convoke an international congress
during 1888.
'
In the year 1887 nine of the thir
teen original states have Democratic
governors, from Davis, in Rhode Isl
and, to Gordon, in Georgia, Some of
the governors in 1787 were Democrats
as soon as party lines were formed, as,
for instance, George Clinton, of New
York, Benjamin Franklin, of Pennsyl
vania, and Edmund Eandolph, of Vir
ginia. In De Witt J. Seligman's paper,
the JSpocIi, ex-Mayor "William R.
Grace has an article on "Presidential
and Vice Presidential Nominees," in
which he says: "Mr. Cleveland's
nomination I regard as a certainty;
not only will no one have the temerity
to oppose him, but the Democratic
party has no one to offer in his stead
at this time. Mr. Blaine's nomina
tion is, of course, not so certain.
Nevertheless, I think it very prob
able." The case of the state of Kansas vs.
Zeibold & Hugelin, brewers and dis
tillers, was argued in the United
States supreme court last Tuesday.
The case arises under section 13 of
the prohibitory law of Kansas, which
provides for shutting up all places
which manufacture, sell, barter or
give away intoxicating liquors in
violation of said law, and
for the punishment of the
owners. The question presented
by the case is whether, where a citizen
purchases and improves property for
business, a subsequent act of a legis
lature can prohibit or regulate the use
of that property for the purpose for
which it is designed, without compen
sation. The decision of the United
States oircuit conrt was m favor of tho
brewers.
The Latest From the Front.
Trains are now Tunning to Siskiyou,
leaving just thirteen miles of staging to
Ashland. The balance oi the track will
bo for a large part over long high trestles,
and will take some time to complete, but
it iB generally understood, says the Tele
gram, that through trains will be put on
some timo between November 15th and
December 1st. The management of the
road have made preparations for making
the last stage trip a notablo one. Dan
Crowley, the old-time stage driver, will
manage the eight horses to be hooked to
the old Concord ooach, and Rube Bey
, nolds, a tried "Wells Fargo express mes
senger, will haye a seat on the boot, with
his little sawed-off shotgun across his
knees. Mr. Crowley is a short, thick-set
man, wearing an iron-crav beard which
' he keeps closely trimmed, giving his al-
r ready stern features a somewhat severe
' look. He drove the first stage that went
, over the Siskiyou mountains, and in all
his varied experience of thirty years'
stage driving he has had the almost
unique good fortune to havo never been
"held up." Mr. Crowley has acquired a
modest fortune of about $40,000 and has
retired fioiu the business, living on a fine
farm in the beautiful Shasto valley. Mr.
Reynolds cannot say the same for him
self, aB far as tho "hold ups" are con
cerned, for he has been through a number
of hair breadth escapes, but has always
been lucky enough to come out best man.
At one time while napping his stage was
neid up, and tne treasure made away with
by two road agents. After driving on
after the affair Eubo got off the stage
and told the driver to go on about a mile
and wait for him. He then started back
on the trail single handed, caught up
with the men as they were in the act of
dividing their plunder, and, after killing
one of them, he took tho other .and the
treasure back to tho stage. Mr. Reynolds
is also a small man, but fnll of pluck and
courage, as the above story indicates.
.
A House Divided Against Itself.
Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Gray, of Davenport,
"W. T.j are registered at the Gilman. Mr.
Gray is tho editor of a red-hot republican
paper at Davenport, while Mrs. Gray is
ardently on the other side of the political
family. During tho late political cam
paign in the territory, Mr. Gray was
called away from homo, and the editorial
responsibility was placed in tho hands of
of his bright and sparkling wife. No
sooner was ho out of sight than she
emulated the example of the immortal
John Phcenix by turning the editorial
columns in favor of all that smacked of
ancient democracy. Mr. Gray was in
Tacoma when he received the first conv
.of his paper after leaving home. It is
said that ho fainted away upon reading
wo mot iuui parugrupuB ui ui& cuironai
celumns: but after recovering he hurriedlv
packed his "grip," hastened back to Da
venport, and didn't allow Mrs. Gray to
"run the machine" again during the rest
oi tne campaign. Telegram.
Brace Op.
You are feeling depressed, your ap
petite is poor you are bothered with
Headache, you are fidgetty, nervous,
and generally out of sorts, and want to
brace up. Brace up, but not with stim
ulants, spring medicines, or bitters,
which have for their basis very cheap,
bad whiskey, and which stimulate you
for an hour, and then leave you in
worse condition than before. What
you want is an alteratire that will puri
fy your blood, start healthy action of
Liver and Kidneys, restore your vitali
ty, and give renewed health and
strength. Such a medicine you will
find in Electric Bitters, and only 50 cents
a bottle at W. E. Dement & Co.'s Drug
Store.

The Knights of Pythias.
Pendleton, Oct. 11. The seventh
annual session of the grand lodge of
Oregon, Knights of Pythias, con
vened here at 7 f. m. to-day. This
morning the Willamette delegation
arrived and were escorted to their
stopping places by members here
and a band. The city is elegantly
and heavily decorated with banners,
flags, bunting and tri-colored cloth.
Business houses and residences
seemed to vie with each other in this.
K. Alexander was at tho head of all
the work, and acted a3 president of
the day. A parade in the afternoon
was made up of uniformed Knights.
At the opera house Rev. Potwine
opened the exercises with prayer.
John C. Leasure delivered an address
of welcome, and A. A. Cleveland, ol
Astoria", an oration. A choir and a
band famished the music. The hall
was completely filled. The ball in
the evening is another success. Tho
Knights of Pendleton and eastern
Oregon generally are doing all they
can to exceed previous attempts in
this state to entertain tho grand
lodge. There is a very full represen
tation here. The election of officers
will probably occur Thursday. It is
hoped to conclude the work rulay.
