VALLEY RECORD.
The People’s Paper.
ASHLAND.Or... Thursday. April 18.1895
Cleveland told Postmaster Hesing of
Chicago while in Washington last week
that “honest money will be the fight in
1896.” and suggested that the battle be
begun by Chicago.

It is reported that a whole city in In­
diana is in the hands of a receiver. A
good many others might be in the same
position if their debts should fall due and
the creditors demand their money.
Salem Statesman: It makes people
smile nowadays to learn that in the *o0s
the motto of the Oregonian was: "Equal
rights, equal laws, and equal justice to
all men.”
The Grand Jury Nuisance.
Some day the people of Oregon will
arrive at the conclusion that the pres­
ent grand jury system is unnecessarily
expensive anil cumbersome, and then
there will be an abolition of it. Since
1890 there have not been half a dozen
grand juries summoned in North Dakota,
and while the taxpayers of the state have
saved a great deal of money by their
absence, them has been no apparent lax­
ity in the administration of the laws.
Prior to that time the grand juries were
called by the fee-earning county attor­
neys, and now they are called at the dis­
cretion of the salaried district judges.
The attorneys really did the indicting
under the old system, and “they are
doing just as much of it now without the
fury, but the expense of maintaining the
juries is saved to the counties. The
statue is so worded that a grand jury can
be called when its services are really
needed, and that is the sort of a statue
that will some day adorn Oregon’s code.
Au Observation on the Situation.
It is necessary from time to time for
people to take notice of where thev are
at, as well in politics as in navigation, or
in merely going through the woods.
Prior to the fourth of March last the Sen­
ate of the United States stood:
Democrats 44, Republicans 36. Pop­
ulists 5. Vacant seats 3. Total 88.
But the senate as it dow stands is as
follows:
Republicans 43. Democrats 39. Pop­
ulists 6. Total 88.
Thus it is plain that the populist group
will fiold the balance of power: for the
republicans to succeed in a measure will
require two populists, and the democrats
for the same purpose will have to obtain
the consent of all six of the populists.
Pennoyer on his Pardons.
Portland, April 12.—Ex-Governor Pen­
noyer made the following statement
today:
"The published statement that Gov­
ernor Lord was incensed at my exercise
of the pardoning power during the last
few days of my term of office, and which
was both legal and proper, but which he
claims was unjustifiable, is a great sur­
prise to me, and if true, shows that the
governor, as well as being very vain and
selfish, is really quite silly. I had the
undoubted right to do what I did, which
right I exercised conscientiously, and I
am answerable neither to Lord nor to
the Oregonian, but only to my conscience
and my God. The governor did not
search the pardon records in the office of
the secretary of state as affirmed by the
Oregonian, because those pardons were
made public to the legislature three
months ago. If both Governor Lord and
the Oregonian had carefully examined
the papers in the several cases, which
neither has done, I am certain they both
would hare been precluded from either
criticism or abuse. Information would
have prevented what ignorance has per­
mitted.”

Postoffice inspectors Wayland and

In tunneling into the mountain for
water at La Canyada valley, about sev­
en miles from Pasadena, the workmen
struck a strong flow of natural gas. A
lighted candle caused a slight explosion
when put near the gas. It was Btrong
enough to make the workmen very sick.
The find is on the property of J. D.
Green.
It is stated upon good authority that
the management of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company has decided to with­
draw from sale all the lands along the
entire line until they are classified and
patented according to the terms of the
recent acts of Congress. The effect of
this policy will be to put an end to the
settlement of railroad lands in the West­
ern states for the present.
"Jack,” a little yellow dog, saved the
lives of five persons at Chicago and lost
his owh life in doing it. The house in
which Jack's master lived caught fire
and all the family were asleep. Jack
jumped on the’ bed and awakened his
master, who barely got his wife and
family out of the house in time to save
their lives. Another family, living in
the same house were also aroused by the
canine hero. When the fire was extin­
guished Jack was found dead at the hall
door. He had suffocated.
Charles A. Chase, the famous lottery
and sporting man, died at New Haven
recently, aged seventy-three years. In
1849, when the gold fever broke out in
California, Chase opened in San Fran­
cisco probably the first restaurant estab­
lished in California. He was very suc­
cessful, and after spending seven years
there, during which time he extended
hi* business to other places, accumulated
a fortune and went East. He was the
most noted fisherman and huntsman in
Connecticut. He engaged in the lottery
business in the face of constant police
interference.
It is reported at Washington that
Minneapolis will again be in the race
among the cities which desire to obtain
the next National Republican conven­
tion. Nevertheless, there is much talk
about San Francisco in connection with
the same object. The only objection
urged against the Pacific Coast metropo­
lis is its distance from the Eastern sea­
board. That San Francisco is making a
good imprsMion is evident from the ve­
hemence with which objections are
raised by rival claimants. To show how
flimsy a pretext is seized upon it may be
cited that one of the objections to San
Francisco is the difference of time be­
tween that city and the Atlantic Cbast,
whereby it is urged that the convention
would not begin its daily sessions until
after the evening papers had been pub­
lished and the public would not be able
to learn what had been done until the
morning papers came out. It is possible
that the National committee will meet
here in December next and decide the
question.

The Boston feeling is well illustrated
in a sentenco from a 6ormon preached

they will say, ‘Make it hot for him, be­
cause he comes from Boston, an intel­
lectual place, where he ought to have

New York state has only 36 bills
pending in its legislature relative to bi­
cycling. Some of them apparently aim

most the only one that bicyclists them­
selves approve is an act to tax wheels

source for the building and keeping in

WASHINGTON NOTES.
Interestinz Items Picked Out from the
Dally Diepatches.
United States Consul General Dekay
at Berlin believes an American physi­
cian has discovered the means of cur­
ing consumption, lupu and perhaps can­
cer. In his report to the state depart­
ment he says the coming medical con­
gress is likely to give considerable
attention to the discovery of Dr. Louie
Waldsteln, a native of New York, an­
nounced in the German medical papers
as extraordinary, the action of minute
injections of pilosarpine, a crystallized
extract from the Brazilian jaborandi
plant, on the lymphatic system. This,
jn a sense, completes the celebrated
“Heilseruip, ” acting favorably on the
patients whom serum does not cure.
The key to the discovery is this: By
successive injections of minute doses of
pilosarpine into tho veins he arrives at
the gradual stimulation of the lymph­
atic system. That system increases the
white corpuscles in the blood which in
some way not agreed upon certainly
overcome and render harmless those
poisonous particles in the blood that
produce the disease. The discoverer
strongly advises the physicians to use
pilosarpine in the early stages of con­
sumption and indeed in all diseases in­
volving the lymphatic system. He has
satisfied himself that it forms a trust­
worthy test for the presence of tuber­
culosis in man and animal. The report
closes with a case of lupus of 22 years’
duration, regarded as incurable, which
was relieved immediately after th$ first
injection and is now almost healed.

Emmanuel Baptist church, San Fran­
cisco, will live in history as the scene of
the most horrible and fiendish crimes
ever committed in America. On Satur­
day last the body of Minnie Williams,
a young and pretty girl, was found,
terribly mutilated, in a little closet of
the library. On Easter Sunday morn­
ing the nude remains of Blanche La­
mont, a young schoolgirl who disap­
peared April 3, was found in the belfrv
of the church. She had been strangled.
The two murdered girls were intimate
friends. Both had been outraged by
the murderer. Theodore Durrant, a'
medical student attending Cooper Medi­
cal college, is under arrest charged with
the unparalleled atrocities. W. C. Mor­
row, the well-known writer, reviews
the horror as follows:

The American incomo tax law is of
nearly as much interest in Great Britain
as it is in tho United States. This is
because of the great number of people,
English and Americans, who get their
incomes from investments here and
spend them in the British kingdom. By
the imposition of the income tax we

and Vanderbilt money before it goes out
of the country. Wo shall also catch a
little portion of the vast number of mil­
lions that go to the old country in the
shape of dividends to British subjects
having their money invested in Ameri­
can enterprises. This is one agreeable
consideration, at any rate. The Ameri­
can income tax is of so much importance
in Great Britain that the foreign office
has published in The Gazette the pro­
visions of the new law, telling those
interested that they must declare their
incomes by April 15.

Gentlemen—1 am more than willing to say your
most valuable medicine has cured me of female
weakness and a catarrhal discharge from the
lining membranes of the special parts. I suf­
fered for years with pain in my back, never a
night was I free. At your request I commenced
treatment with Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip­
tion. I could not sleep on a mattrass ; it seemed
as though it would kill me. Since taking the
medicine I can sleep anywhere ; I am perfectly
well, I would not be placed in my former con­
dition for any money.
Gratefnlly yours.

Scrofula in the Blood
der of Minnie Williams as it was not
told on the day her body was found.
After the detectives had traced the trail
of the fiend from the moment he had
dragged the body of Blanche Lamont
up the stairs until he had climbed into
the shadows of the steeple, they turned
their attention to the second dreadful
affair Which was the first to be revealed.
What they have discovered will form
an important chain of evidence against
the murderer.
The little room and its marks of blood
give to the police what they believe was
the plan of the murderer. They are con­
vinced that the girl was outraged and
strangled in the large room, but that
death did uot come until the murderer
had finished his outrage and saw that
life still lingered in the little body of
his victim.
He hurriedly went to the kitchen of
the church and grabbed the caseknife
with which he completed the crime.
There were dozens of such knives upon
the tables, cheap silver-plated articles.
He returned to his terrible task. It is
thought that a groan from the dying
girl nerved him to his brutal murder.
He lifted her body from the floor and
carried it into the bookroom. Forcing
it back upon a table he drove down his
knife time and again.
The blade sunk into her head and
heart. Both wrists were severed, the
knife descending to the bone. The blood
formed a pool upon the table and over­
flowed to the floor. The girl was then
removed to the floor, and as she was
thrown back the blood spurted from
her wounds upon the wall. This is the
theory which the police accept.
