Members of said Committee from each precinct are requested to be present. By order of O. V. PATTEIWON, J. C. Coiucy, Chairman. Secretary. Since the war in Cuba commenced, au army of 15,000 soldiers, with their guns and equipments, have disnp peared. Were they killed In battle? Did they desert? Who can account for that mass of men? These are question evMoh thf pfwcaptatn-gen- er.-d wants answered. iiintcH rrmbi'vd by the X ray are uot named, Imi ain.it f the words suggested me otliioujfc'raphs, radio graphs, shadowgraphs, skiagraphs and skototrraphs. When such a mis fit as "electrocute" forces Its way luto the dictionary the world may well tremble for the verbal results of a new scientific discovery. The Bering Sea seal fishery has been a source of annoyance to our government, and the more galling, since England will not heartily Join us in the endeavor to prevent poachj Ing by the Canadians. Dingly, of the present congress, recommends a plan which will end all dispute. He proposes for the U. 8. government to take possession of the aral Islands, nd kill the whole herd la cne vason nd thus enJ the Industry la one Blow. This la dealing With the anal at it accord- With a decree ren Awed by rViiumon la a celebrated llspute, aval no on haa yet been found who will deny the effectlvenas of the judgment. LEO IS- When men have power there Is great temptation to one it to accom plish desired ends, even when Its exercise cannot call to its support sojnd reasoning. This thought Is Illustrated by the action of several senators who have voted against tariff legislation for the purpose of forcing a free silver coinage measure, or In revenge, because their views are not ad' ptcd by a majority of their party associates. A tariff suffi ciently high to provide a nveuus so laid as to protect American indus tries, is a distinctive republican Idea. If the national income is not ade quate for the requirements of tha government, eveiy republican in congress should, without question, vote for an increase of tariff, and this exigence should not be seized upou as a means to force favorable legisla tion on a measure that is not recog nized In republican platforms. Free silver coinage Is not a republican doctrine, ami when senators put It on a tariff bill as a rider, thus causing the defeat of a bill for an increase of the duties to a Agure sufficient for the need of the government, they take a position which they cannot defend. "Marion," In the Capital Journal, objects to .the practice of sending the tramp or criminal class from one city to another. "Marlon" evidently for gets one of .the .fundamental axioms in socioloy keep every inhabitant busy. It may lie true that a criminal in our city will be a criminal in another, but if the authorities can keep the class busy, tramping there Will not be time for committing crimes. The officers are certainly Justified in keeping them In motion. The steerable balloon on trial in the Uerman army rises to an altitude of over half a mile with a load of two tons, and can stay up a week without throwing out ballast or los ing gas. The silk of which it is made is coated with a secret prepara tion, rendering it absolutely gas tight. In case of future hostilities, no war department will he complete without a bureau devoted to new inventions. It appears'to au outsider that the Importance and (spare given to the little quarrel between father and son, in the salvation army, is out of all proportion .to its merits. A little more spirituality Injected into the army religion, and a smaller tam bourine would bo. quite. as efficacious for soul-saving. i i A paper published in Columbia, S.

This editor may be lonesome in South Carolina, but he will find himself In the swim in any other part of the country. A XEWHsSUCIATIOtr. In October last a meeting of miners, In response to a call, was held in Spo kane, Washington. At this ineeflng the Northwest Miners' Association was organized, having for Its ob ject the advancement of all mining Interests In Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and British Colum bia. To reach every camp, second vice-presidents were appointed who organize such mining district into clubs that shall co-operate through representatives or delegates with the head organization. Forty-two sec ond vice-presidents have been ap pointed In Oregon. Th-we officers become the chief executive of their respective clubs. An executive Hireling of second vice-presidents was called for Febru ary 2Jd, at Spokane. Tills meeting was largely attended, though there were not as many Oregonmns present as there ought to have been, or as the mining interests of the state demand' ed. Much work of great importance to the miner was mapped out and re ferred to appropriate committees, with Instructions to report at the an nual meeting In October next. The judiciary committee was Instructed to report a uniform bill providing for recording mining claims to be pre sented to the legislature of each of the four states above named, and to British Columl.ia. Some of the stales have statutes directing how claims, whether placer or quartz, may bo re corded, while some have none. The miners in ten ted wili the law to Is? uniform throughout the belt, and, as it is a matter concerning the miner alone, the legislature of each state will no doubt pass the bill at once. The other bill is an amendment of the present congressional law touch ing the location of claims on newly discovered veins. The present law is said to have but one defect, and that one leaves room for bitter disputes and exensive litigation. It provides that a locator must survey his end lines at right angles to the lodeat the points where his claim begins and ends. He is by law authorized to work his vein, following its dips and angles within these "end lines." As long as the vein is straight, the miner can never get Into the territory of his neighbor, bur if . the vein twists or curves it Is ren at once that the end lines of thi various levator soon ceare to o paMHei. Then trounie comes and litigation, and sometimes bloodshed. The plan proposed by the late meeting at Spokane is to cre ate a C. 8. ofttcer, who duty It shall be to survey a base line across every aewly discovered qiwrti Wsle, proba bly at right angles t the bit tt IH point eras! Alt vl ItW ceT ifev several location snail t parallel to this base line, though they msy not bant right angles fc the lode at the (oint af crossiufi This fell Is to aw THE SEX ATE TA It IFF LATIOy. presented to congress, and to the leg islature of British Columbia after the opinion of the mining associations of California, Utah and Colorado shall have been taken. Another feature Of the association Is the opportunity of forming the ac quaintance of 'mining men from the several districts, and the dissemina tion of reliable Information concern ing the mines, the ores, methods of working, the reduction plants and the worth ot different pieces of min ing machinery. The second vice-president of Wash ington county ' Is D. M. C. Gault, Uillsboro, and, while there are no mines yet operated in the county, there are known to be good prospects of economic ores. It Is, perhaps, well to keep In touch with other sections of the state, where rich, precious ore beds do exist, and be prepared to help In the matter of desirable legis lation, if not otherwise. AX OBEGO.MA WRITES OF HIS TRATELS. Ed. . Independent : A trip nt this season ot the year from Oregon to Maine Is Interesting, If not alto gether pleasant. One prefers to re main In the cars and peep out of the windows. The ride I have J ust taken via the gulf states, thence along the Atlantic seaboard to the old Pine Tree state, gives one an idea of the variable climate of the United States, and convinces an Oregon Ian that there are wilder and more unde veloped states than old Webfoot, Living in Oregon all my life and traversing acres of mountain chain and penetrating every jungle and forest of note, I have never yet run across a wild bear. But I had not been in Florida twenty-four hours before I had my curiosity satisfied Two wild bear, an elk, four deer and a panther were seen. Talk about the wild and wooly West why, Oregon Is ahead of the gulf states in many respects. Having been in the South on a former occasion. I was better prepared to take observations than on my first visit, and I believe 1 have profited thereby. The print! pal industries of the South appears to be negroes, cotton, cypress swamps, mosquitoa and every tropical fruit grown. In this latter respect, Flori da takes first place. Every known fruit appears to thrive there. Oranges ripen every month in the year except February. This year. the frost has injured the crop to great extent, but the other fruits, such as pineapples, cocoa nuts, dates, figs, lemons, bananas, etc., are all right. No wonder the Northerners go wild over Florida. Flowers grow to perfection in the fertile soil and genial air. Japonlcas, hyacinths, violets, tuber roses, camellias and other delicate flowers require no pro tection, but blossom throughout the winter, exhaling their sweet frag ranee in the pleasant air. The forests are adorned with yellow Jasmine, white honeysuckle, crab apple and Cherokee rose. The vivifying sun shine and refreshing showers come in due proportion at regular and hI most stated times, therefore requiring no irrigation, and promising a boun teous yield to the farmers and fruit growers. From the- numerous swamps, marshes, etc., In Florida, one would suppose it an unhealthy place, but according to the statistics prepared by U. S. Surgeon General Hammond, Florida Is the healthiest state in the union. He shows the death rate to be in Florida, 1 in 1447; in Massachusetts, 1 In 254; In New York, 1 in 473; and in Minne sota, 1 in 755. To visit the battlt fields of Island No. 10, Vicksburg, Fort Donelson, Gettysburg and others is interesting, and a number of relies were secured by digging for them. Will send you a sMm dug out of the ground at Island No. 10. As I dug up two-of i hem. I think I will forward one to David Keene, of Forest Grove, whom I have heard tell of the kind of spoous they had there. Found copies of the Independent In Lowell, Mass., Augusta, Maine, and New York. Of course, the lad who set his first type In that office was glad to see his old friend. Arriving from the South, a very heavy frost was found in New York p only twenty-five degrees below zero and to think thai a heartless wretch stole my heavy overcoat that I had carried throughout the South) not having needed it there. One hears politics discussed at every turn, and the general impres sion Is that the St. Louis nominee will be the next president, but many who predict this, say, look out for high rollers In 1900. The nominee of the St. Louis convenvention will not succeed himself. The free silver sentiment is stronger than I expected to find it. wherever I have been. I have seen enough of the negro in the South. The heathen Chinee is his superior, and were I in the South, I feel that I, too, would be a bull dosr. The gimt of our country de mands it. No negro rule in mine, Heought to be deprived of the ballot, legally, if possible. I am not out for negro votei, and am free to speak my mind. For the safety of the nation, let us restrict the ballot. The idea of allowing a negro a vote and depriving our mothers, our daugh ters, our wives and our sisters of the privilege, Is wrong, in my opinion. Albert Tozier. A gust a, Maine, Fb. 20, 189a.

To the Editor: Only recently I learned that during the year past, and now, there is a story circulating, to the effect that the Sheriff' Associ ation of Oregon, through Sheriff Knight, of Marion county, at the Jatt session of the legislature, paid to me the sum of ;imi as a bribe to have the Sheriffs' Mileage Bill enrolled. I have carefully sifted over every thing that has been said, and, as yet, am not satisfied that I could main tain any suit for blander. The law, as construed by ovt courts, is very liberal or lenient with all oral abuse of this character, and it seems prac tically useless to undertake a case for slander unless the evidence Is iu writing, or very strong corroberative oral evidence can be secured; so it leaves the slanderer practically free to utter the most libelous matter about another, without serious conse quence to himself. If the sheriffs were sponsor for these stories, for the purpose of forc ing them into a position where they must, in writing, answer, I Inserted In the Salem dailies, the following challenge: To John Knm.ht, Sheriff ok Marion County: Sheriff Ford, of Washington Coun ty, has circulated a statement that you, as representative of the Stier ill's' Association, at the last sessiou ol the legislature, paid me the sum of WOO as a bribe to get the sheriffs' mileage bill enrolled. Did .you or did you not? If you will altirm it, opportun ity will be given you to Im heard iu defense. II. V. Gates. Now, I absolutely and emphatic ally deny ever having received, my self or through joy agent, any sum of money from any sheriff, or their association, or ngeiit, for enrollment of any bill, or for any service or as sistance of any character whatever. Early In the session of last year, the Sheriffs' Association caused to lie Introduced, House Bill No. 14, known as the SherinV Mileage Bill. From the beginning, 1 opposed it, went to the sheriffs and frankly told them that I would. It passed its first reading, and, on January 28th, came to its second reading. Repre sentative after representative carried motions through to exempt Jheir counties - from its provisions. The house was in an uproar of jeers, jokes and slurs cast at it, no one had the temerity to defend It, and finally, to quiet, matters and stop the loss of time, a motion was carried to cut off all of the bill except the enacting clause, and so it readied the commit tee. Shorn and disgraced, with only a title page left,l we supposed it dead forever. Was it ? Twenty-two days later it came up again for final pas sage, the same bill, but In lamb's clothing of an amendment, which did not change its previous character. Four counties were exempted from its provisions, which, aa it afterwards developed, practically cut off their opposition. The vote on final pas sage stood, thirty-nino ayes, nineteen nays, two absent. Twelve of the ayes were from exempted counties. On the last day T the session, it passed the senate with .twenty ayes, seven nays, three ubsent. Seven ol the ayes were from exempted coun ties, so la the house and senate, it required the vote of the exempted counties to carry the bill. After a hard, bitter light, disgusted and beaten, I, among others, went l Gov. Lord and requeued hi in to give the bill a generous consideration tie- fore approving it. As his veto clear ly outlines some of my reasons for opposing it, I insert the sime: To the Legislative Assembly I caunot approve house bill 11, authorizing sherifls to collect mile- age. In view of the present state of the law, the salaries of these officials were intended as comiM-nsalion for the services which they were required to perform, in lieu of fees and mile. age. The object of the law was to abolish the fee system, which In cluded mileage. By the present law, It is proposed to give mileage to sheriffs in addition to their salaries, which were intended to cover them This is in coullict with the declared will of the people on the subject. If the saliiries were, for any reason, not sufficiently compensatory, they should bo fncrcastsl to an amount commensurate with tliclr duties or services required to lie performed In this way. Just compensation would be secured to these officers, and the evils of a return to the fee system avoided. Mileage, it is thought, lur nishes a cover for the worst ahuses f that system, for these reasons only require me to veto the bill. W. P. Lord. These sheriffs were elected and qualified on a full understanding that their salaries should suffice as compensation for service, that the fee system was pnh tically abolished, and the saliu-y system substituted in lieu thereof. The sheriff of a county like Washington, through remaining fees and salary, receives, approxi mately, (100 to (.UK) monthly, besides an allowance lor deputy hire. Some times be Is taken Iroin a walk in life where he had been contented If re ceiving one-tenth of this amount. In the press reports of the Oregonian of November 21(h, last year, a dis patch from Salem, In sutwtanee says: "The sheriffs of Oregon have got a grievance against Gov. Lord for ve toing the miUago hill, and at the next slate convention of the thirty tao sheriffs and their deputies, all would be on band witli every influ ence todefeit him." Was coerclof. used to carry the bill, which on Its Introduction, was acluaily kh ked out of tho house? Friends r-.m e to me and advised me to stop oppos ng. Am I now reaping the s.i'iie Largest that the press rciiort indicates awails Gov. Lord? "Mander travels ou the wings of Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U.S. Gov1! Report nSfcs&vfl Efflux I I V I I I I 1 SK. 11 S.cr ssa If DSOLUTCLY PURE the vulture, vindication on the back of the snail." All summer, these li belous seeds of slander have been scattered broadcast. An election is nearing. My friends have been urg ing me to ruu the race for senatorial Honors. This explains, in a measure, my challenge as above quoted. Whether in the race or not, I court tha strictest inquiry into my conduct, at Salem. Going back over its rec ord, find some things done which should not have been done, and things undone which should have been done. "To err is human." I have, as a legislator, tried to merit the approbation of my ople. Proud in the knowledge of grxd work performed and pledges kept, I am willing to he Judged on my rec ord, but want an impartial trial and not to be judged by those who seem ingly only desire to condemn, regard less of facts. II. V. Gates. WHO IS ArKAlUI A Washington dispatch of Wed nesday last states that surprising re sults were obtained at a test of shells at the ludiau Head proving grounds ou Tuesday last and if these shall be confirmed by further experiments, our navy, which already possesses the best armor-plate iu the world, will have by far the beat armor-penetrating shells, and both of American invention. What was done Tuesday at the proving grounds was to fire a cast-steel shell of six-inch caliber en tirely through a seven-inch Harvey ized nickel-steel plate, through the heavy oak backing and twelve teet into the bank of clav behind. This performance has 'never been equaled by any projectile of like call her iu the world. Naval experts are much pleased with the test. They say these cast-steel shells i-an be made for much less than the ex pen sive forged-steel armor-piercing shells that they can be made much more quickly, and that they appear to be superior in every resicct. Mr. Gates, lu Ins explanatory arti cle in another column, is too liberal in his estimate of the salary paid to the sheriff of Washington county since that officer gets, including the dt puty hire, less than (4,000. The Sunday Welcome is a Her man organ. He attacks the editor of tho Independent personally rather than the arguments anil policy of the paper. This is the way of those who espouse for gain or older considera lions the cause ot the waning man, If railroads can make a city, then Spokane will be the largest place in the Inland empire. That place al ready boasts of having seven rail roads centering there. Besides this tliero Is a fine water-power, but. un fortunately, there are no iron mines at hand, hence there is no great in centive to use the manufacturing facilities. The medical experts In the Dues trow case seem to have sent the word "paranoia" on Us winding way through the newspais-rs. It was a total stranger to current writing until they told- about it at Union, Mo. And now we find in a New York pacr an item atsiut a horse that was paranoiac, and was shot. He became too wicked to be allowed to live- fighting, biting and kicking so as to endanger the lives of all who went near him. These are the candidates who are more or less eager for the presiden tial nomination on the republican ticket: Thomas B. Reed, of New Kngland; Ivi P. Morton, of New York; Matthew S. Quay, of Pennsyl vania; Stephen R. Klkins, of West Virginia; Russell A. Alger, of Mlchi giin; Slichy M. Culiom, of Illinois; Wm. McKlnley, of Ohio; Win. B. Allison, of Iowa; Wm. O. Bradley, of Kentucky; Cushman K. Davis, of Minnesota; Charles F. Mandcrson, of Nebraska. An Oregonian correspondent, sign ing himself "Commercial Traveler, has tieen urging the claims of Mr. Hirioann with some ersistence. In another roluiun of this issue is an answer to his first letter, which has been favorably mentioned In several parts of the state. To this reply, Com mercial Traveler has a rejoinder in Monday's Oregonian, in which this sentence occurs: "But I did ask this question, and I now repeat it, with emphasis: 'IH hankers and mer chants discharge cashiers and clerks that have performed long and faith ful service." He then calls attention to the long service :f Tom Reed and John Sherman. Well, if Mr. Her- mann has rcachfd the eminence of those gentleinen, Oregon ought to re tain his services, and lie ought to be chairman of the river and harbor committee, but he is not. B,it It is a new thing to find sentiment In busi ness. The Independent has heard of many old faithful cashiers and clerks who have been turned out to make places fur younger and more ef ficient men. This Is the rule when such rmployes show higns of not be ing able to stand to the work. After II, this claim of equality to other long service con?renmn-is an acknowl edgment that Mr. Hermann Is n t thilr qmil. If he were, no claim Would have to be made. It would be acknowled.wl without qmtion. The U. S. Gov't Reports thaw Royal Baking Powdf i soparior to all otaan. fT IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OK THE S:i:e o: Creoa, fur WjuLiti'.oa I'ounlr. John W.
