Lotan is Dismissed.
From Wednesday's dispatches w
learn that Collector of Customs
James Lotan was summarily dis
missed and Deputy Collector Pike
placed in charge of the office Col
lector Lotan said: -
"I received a dispatch from the
department at Washington shortly
before noon instructing me to turn
over the collector's office to deputy
Pike. I have done o and he ia
now in charge. I think this whole,
affair is at the instigation of a
special agent of the treasury de-'
partraent who Was sent to the
coast to work trouble for this office.'
Mr. Cleveland has stated that he
would remove no republican ex
cept for cause. The fact of the
matter is they had no cause, conse
quently they hadto find a cause. In
view of the fact that on - July 1 I
wil I step, out, it seems as if I might ;
have been allowed to retire in pro
per form,"
On June 15,; Collector Lotan, in
disregard of official instructions
from the ..treasury department,
landed from the steamer l)anube
about 250 Chinese, they claiming
to be merchants, most of -whom were
described in the official-report to
the department as being a scaly and
uncouth appearing lot of coolies.
Chinese coolies are now expected on
board of the steamship Haytian
Republic, enroute for Portland, and
it was believed by the treasury de
partment that if Colletor Lotan had
been left in the office he would land
them without regard to the law, as
he did in the case of those on board
of the Danube. As far back as
March 3, Collector Lotan was in
structed by assistant Secretary
Spaulding as follows:
It is ascertained that many Chin
ese enter the United States upon
fraudulent papers certifying them
to be returning merchants. You
will hereafter disregard such pap
ers and refuse them entry unless it
errtr your satisfaction by
parties preseWmg them - that
they have aright to land. Since
that time many hundred Chinese
have been landed at Portland upon
bogus affidavits and certificates.

stay in his room at the Athena
House and would notice no one,
and Saturday he went to Smether

letter:
Los Angeles, Cat,. June 22, 1893
Jarvis IIuud, City Recorder.o
Athena, Ore.
Dear Sir
Your favor of the 16th. inst
with inclosure as stated received.
In reply will state that we fore
warded you our usual contract
for the delivery of bonds bought
by us, and instead you sent us a
contract of your own, which we
herewith - return you unsigned.
We are not in the habit of sign
ing this kind of a-contract with
forfeiture clauses: especially at
this time when there , were six
bank failures in two days 'in ' Los
Angeles. We also return you all
Eapers relatiug to the issue. We
ave bought lots of bonds and have
always taken them up when our
contracts fall due. Yours Truly
(Dictated) DeVan & Rutledge
Some of our citizens think the
modification of the contract is the
cause of the failure to sell the)bonds;
others think DeVan . & Rutledge
wanted some excuse for not taking
them, and that this gave them the
excuse they wanted, and if the
contract had not been modified
they would have found some other
pretext for not taking them, that
the main reason is the present con
dition of the money market
Be that as it may, one thing is
settled, that is ' Athena will
have no water works this year.
It is now too late to advertise " for
new bids for the bonds; and if
they were advertised it is doubtful
if any one would bid for them unless
there should be a great change in
the condition of the money mar
ket. ' Of Interest lo Teachers;

Berry Wins the Cowboy Race.
The Cowboy race was ended
Tuesday. The first winner was
John Berry. As soon as Berry's
horse was stabled, president Short
all, of the Illinois Humane Society,
accompanied by a couple of vet
erinery surgeons, attemped to con
duct an inspection and ascertain
the condition of the horse. "Poi
son" made a vicious kick at the
humane official, who quickly con
cluded theift was plenty of animal
life left in him, and there was no
justification for interference on the
part of the society. Col. Cody
(Buffalo Bill) declared there was
a great deal more to race for than
mere prize. It will show to
the world, said he, what native
American horses would do. Euro
pean nations had been watching
the race and there will be a rush
foe the American animal. Euro-
Eean nations will want American
red horses for their cavalry,
They Were no "Pudding."
The following is what the Union
Journal says of the Walla Walla
and Athena clubs match game in
that city last Sunday afternoon.
The Fort Walla Walla ball team
and the Athena nine met on the
garrison diamond and battled for
supremacy in the presence of abont
500 people. It was one of the
best games ever witnessed in the
city, and was interesting from the
start to the finish. Both teams
did heavy hitting and good field
ing. The soldiers did good base
running which won them the game
by a score of 14 to 11. T. J. Pot
ter was umpire and he performed
his arduous duties in a manner
perfectly , patisfactorily to both
teams, not one kick being raised
against the numerous close decis
ions made by the gentleman.

furious animal, a female, charged

The supreme court has sustain
ed the decision of the lower court
in the case against Frank Fletcher.
Wednesday C. A. Barrett of this
city received the following telegram
from' Bailey & Ballery.the Pendle
ton attorneys:
"Pendleton, Or. June 2 18i)3.
C. A Barrett,

Fletcher case this morning affir
medvby the Supreme court,
j Bailey it Bali.euy.
Thus the hope of the young con
vict, his relatives, friends and at
torneys for a new trial, .h dissi
pated. The supreme court reviews
the case and holds that tho lower
court was guilty and none of the
errors alleged by the defense. It
considers that the statement of
Petiie, while almost unconscious
from his mortal wound, that Frank
Fletcher shot him was made on the
threshold of impending death and
is competent evidence; that the at
tempt to impeach the testimony of
the.boy, Ollinger, was groundless;
that the alleged confession of Wal
ter . Denitson was evidence of the
merest hearsay character, and
clearly ' inadmissable, etc. Num-
erous authorities are cited and the
opinion covers five or six type
written pages.
