The body of a newly born male in
fant was discovered floating in the
Willamette river near New Kra one day
last week. A coroner’ s inquest was
held over the remains, but nothing was
developed which would tend to throw
any light upon the mystery, as to why
the body of the babe was thrown into
the river.
The steam schooner Point Arena,
bound from San Francisco to Mendo
cino, went on the rocks near Point
Reyes. Captain Johnson, her master,
was on the bridge when she grounded.
He at once began to back her, and
within ten minntes she was free of the
rocks. As soon as the vessel was
loosened the water began to rush in
through a hole in her port bow, just
forward of the forward bold. Captain
Johnson headed for San Francisco, end
came up under a full bead of steam,
the pumps being kept in action all the
while. By the time she reached the
Mission slip, where she was docked,
there was four feet of water in her for
ward bold.
A. W. Pile, of California, secretary
of the national silver committee, was
found dead at Washington, D C , un
der circumstances which lead to a sus
picion of foul play. He had been mis
ting for four days. His body was
found under the aqueduct bridge
When last teen he had considerable
money, but the money was missing
when the body was discovered. A sil
ver watch, however, had not been die-
orbed. There la no evidence of sul-
ids. Mr. Pile was the son of sx-Con-

D em ocratic P la tfo rm .
Following are the three platforms
adopted at Ellensburg:
"Section 1. The representatives of
tbe Democratic party of the state of
Washington, in convention assembled,
do hereby reaffirm our allegiance to the
principles of the party as formulated
by Thomas Jefferson aud firmly main
tained by Andrew Jackson. We be
lieve that a constant recurrence to those
fundamental principles of a free and
popular government, based upon indi
vidual liberty and the consent of the
governod, is necessary, especially when
the oontrol of this government threat
ens to fall into the hands of aristuo-
racy, monopoly and despotism.
"Seo. 2. We greet with hearty ap
proval the new declaration of indepen
dence enunciated by tbe Democracy of
the United States of America at the re
cent convention in Chicago; indorse
every principle of its platform, and
pledge our united support to the candi
dates there selected. We recognize in
the nomination of W illiam Jennings
Bryan and Arthur Sewall an inspira
tion from the Supreme Ruler of Na
tions. by whose favor our oountry has
passed through every hour of trial and
of peril and has ever found leaders
equal to the occasion, grand as the op
portunity, sufficient to the struggle,
great as the greater need required.
“ Sec 3. W e demand the free and
nnlimited coinage of silver and gold at
tbe ratio of 10 to 1, without waiting
for the consent of any other nation on
earth.
We denounce the pretense of
Republican international bi-metalism
as a subterfuge; an attempt to estab
lish a gold aristooracy with the aid of
those who may be duped by a meaning
less phrase.
"Sec 4. We denounce the present
Republican administration of our state
as extravagant, oorrupt, scandal-breed
ing and a w illfu l abuse of the people's
rights. With a preteuse of honoring
the memory of the great names of chain
pious of the people, it now bows down
to political bosaos and has not enrolled
upon its banner tbe name of any man
unsubservient to the dictates of the
money power.
“ Seo. 5. We oall the attention of
the oommon people to tbe perpetuation
in our state of the gigantic Kepulbican
ring, which uses the public patronage
to control future elections to perpetu
ate itself in the control of the public
purse; uses the gigantio earnings of
corporations (by the methods of Federal
receiverships) to dictate the election of
our representatives in congress and the
senate; abuses the franchise of tbe pub
lic press by opening the columns of its
newspapers to bat one side of public
discussions; demands of and receives
from its votaries absolute prostitution
of individual liberty to the dictates of
machine politicians.
"Seo. 0. W e invite the serions at
tention of the laboring classes in our
state to the attempted oontrol of the
elective franchise by threats on the part
of the Republican leaders.
They do
not hesitate to threaten their employes
with discharge unless they submit to a
sale of the free voting right guaranteed
them by the constitution. Nor w ill
they stop at threats, but w ill openly
carry out the shameful abuse of power
unless checked by tbe righteous indig
nation of a free people.
“ Sec. 7. We pledge the people of
this great state that when given the
control of its government we w ill re
dace the burden of state taxation to the
lowest lim it consistent with a just and
careful administration of the govern
mental functions. We w ill stop the
present (qr.sndenng of the great pub
iic domain. W e w ill, so (ar as now
remains possible, use the publio lands
for the benefit of the whole people, and
not for tbe pnrpose of pulliDg tbe
purse-strings of private corporations.
We w ill reduce tbe burdens laid upon
production by the greed of transporta
tion companies, aided by legislation
purchased from Republican legisla
tures. To this end we favor a law pro
viding for freight rates not exoeediDg
those of the Helm bill, and we favor a
8-cent per mile passenger fare. We
w ill endeavor to make possible tbe car
rying out of our system of public
schools, now closed as tbe result of Re
publican extravagance. 'Free oommon
schools »re tbe nursery of good govern
ment.' They should when necessity
demands, be preserved even at tbe ex
pense of every other function of govern
ment. The Republican control of the nually tbe tonnage of all the foreign

energy our people annually transact
"Sec. 8. We condemn the refusal of fully one third of the entire volume of
the Republican party of this state to the world's business, and we therefore
divide it into congressional districts, denounce as «cowardly, pusillanimous

Twenty-four horses and mules were

" A speoial stock train which went

The robbers escaped, but were all
