REGULATOR
Reader, did you ever take Simmons
LlVEB Requlatob. the "Kma nv
I4VE8 Medicines ?" Everybody needs
take a liver remedy. It is a sluggish or
' diseased liver that Impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou
bles, and give tone to the whole sys
tem. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is better than Pills, it
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.
Every package has the Red Z

SILVER IS SILENCED.
Free Coinage Substitute Over,
whelmingly Defeated.
VOTE RESULTED 90 TO 215
"Sound Money" Forces Cheer
the Announcement.
Washington, Feb. 15. The pub
lic and. private gallaries of the
house were thronged today in an
ticipation of the debate on . the
senate tree coinage, substitute for
the bond bill. , :
Mr. Dingleyy chairman of the
ways and means committee? in
sisted on the regular order as soon
as the journal had been read, under
the arrangements made yesterday
One hour was allowed each side
for closing. .
Mr, Crisp, representing free sil
ver, said this was an economic
question, and no matter what views
the members might have enter
tained in the past, he assumed that
in casting a vote today each mem
ber would do so conscientiously, in
accordance with the dictations of
his convictions. . Mr. Crisp'-opener

farniliar word,8, "In 1873 pongres.
demonetised silver. Prices were
fixed by the amount of primary
money in the world. If the stand
ard in England was gold, France
silver and China silver, the
measure of values would be com
bined against both gold and silver
circulating as money,"
He read from the statement Sen
ator Sherman made in 1876, that
the demonetization of silver haf
caused the redyctfon fif ita'pfipe'
and created, a mad scramble for
gold on the part of England, France
and Germany, which appreciated
its price and induced a fall of
prices throughout the world. That
fall of prices, Mr. Crisp asserted,
was largely due to the demonetiza
tion of silver. He read from Bal
four's speech on the 9th inst., in
the English parliament, attributing
the decline of agriculture in gold
countries to the appreciation of
gold and the artificial advantage t
gave silver countries.. Bftlfou'r also
declared thp obVtasles to rpforra
came npt from, abroad, but wprp
put forward, at borne. Mr, Crisp
affirmed the existence of a well de
fined purpose by those in authority
at home and abroad to deDress the !
price of silver in order to prevent
its remocetizalion. He cited the
manner in which the Bland-Allison
act of 1878 was executed, the coin
age of the minimum amount under
the act and refusal of the treasury
after a few months to" coin silyer
under tha act of 9Q. He cited
Secretary Carlisle's refusal to give
silver for gold in 1893, because sil
ver was needed for the redemption
of treasury uotes, and his course a
few months afterwards of redeem
ing those notss in gold. "What
kind of juggling is that?" he asked.
"What sort of friendly treatment
is that?" Applause. --,
. He then directed his attention to
the mariner in which the parity
between metals had been main
tained. Every obligation, govern
ment bonds, greenbacks and
treasury notes was payable jn coin.
If that was ndt'tfue, and they were
gpld obligations, why; did not tho, e
who believed it have the courage to
6ay so, and tave a tax-ridden
people millions of dollars? In
February, 1895, - congress could
have saved the people 116,000,000
interest by authorizing gold bonds.
"Congress refused." Baid Mr.
Crisp. "We paid sixteen millions
for the privilege of paying in sil
ver, and now you attempt to deny
our right to do so." Applause.
"ftlr. Speaker," said Mr. Crisp.
continuing, 'a few days ago our
condition was pitiable. The great
est nation in intelligence and trade,
we had just applauded to the echo
the president's message, warning
European powers that'they would,
not be permitted to secure lodg'
ment on th American continent.
The echo of the applause had hard
ly ceased before the administration
with shaking knees was hysterical
ly calling on congress for hejp. It
was feared that Great Britain
would take out our gold. We were
helpless in the face of tbe enemy.
Yet you want that condition per

gested in modern times."
Coming down to the practical
questions wnetber the. United
States independently could main-
mm wiiu iree coinage me parity
between gold and silver, he said
that there was no difference of
opinion that it could be accora
pushed by an , international agree
ment, .v
He quoted from Jackson and Jef
ferson, and contemptuously said it
had remained for modem econo
mists to assert that to create de
mand and value bv law was
"physical and a metaphysical ab
surdity." .
He also quoted from Sherman
and Carlisle (while he was in the
house), to the effect that united
action of several countries could
sustain silver. As to the ability of
the. United btates to do so alone,
the examplo of France, a country
infinitely inferior in wealth and
trade to us, must be borne in mind.
Our commerce, internal and exter
nal, exceeded that of England,
Germany and France combined.
If our mines were opened to the
free coinage of silver, the commer
cial value of the metal would be
equal to its -legal value in this
country, because anvone havinsr
412$ grains could bring it here and
get a standard silver dollar's worth
of commodities.
At the conclusion of Mr. Dalzell's
remarks Mr. . Dingley demanded
the previous question, which was
ordered, Mr, Crisp's motion to coiv

The vote resulted 90 to 215.
The announcement of 125 majority
against free silver was cheered by

it would be necessary to break

THE FIRST DEGREE.
The, Found it the Case of Por
ter, at Union.
SENTENCED YESTERDAY.
A Kansas Farmer Writes of
Kaffir Corn.
The Jury in the case of the state
of Oregon "vs. Kel6ey Porter, char
ged with the murder of Ben Mache
sr., in Pine valley, Union county,
on January 1, 1896, which haa
been on trial at Union, brought in
a verdict of murder in the first de
gree. The jury retired to deliber
ate on a verdict about nine o'clock
Saturday night. At nine o'clock
Sunday morning they called upon
the court to give them a review of
the court's instructions in the case
and within ten minutes thereafter
the verdict was handed in.
Those who followed the case dur
ing the trial, who have thus far ex
pressed an opinion, consider that
Porter's evidence was of a damag
ing character. Porter la now the
only witness to the tragedy, and
ni8 own statements and the facts
revealed by the po9t mortem ex
amination 18 all UDon which evi-
dence can be based. The nost
mortem revealed the fact that the
elder Mache had bten struck in
the head by a blunt instrument,
and the clothing of all three vic
tims showed numerous bullet
holes. . ' .. ?" ; -: .:'."..'. '
In his own defense Porter stated
that the Maohes threatened to kill
him. He claimed that the Rhnnt-
ing of Ben Macho jr., was done in
sen aeiense, and couid not explain
how it was that he killed the two
old people,
It has been imnracticable to aret
a detailed account of the trial. For
some time previous to the killing
there had : been trouble between
. .. .
Porter and Mache. on account of
the latter going through Porter's
field. When the father, mother
and son cama uo to Porter's nlaca
on New Year's day, the latter was
standing on a shed with a Win
chester. From this position on the
shed the ra4 which the Maohes
came up was plainly visible. Evi
dence was submitted showing that
Porter had been there some little
time awaiting their arrival.
Notwithstanding the outcome of
the case there is alstroagsentiment
in behalf of Porter in Pino valley.
At a meeting of citizens there j was
adopted resolqtioris condoning liis
acts and. a subscription of about
$2QQ was raised, for , his defense.
The verdict will.i therefore, meet
with quite a division of sentiment
in that part of Union county. It
is presumed that, all the usual
methods will be resorted to in or
der to reverse or modify the ver
dict, although the charge -of mur
der of the younger ' Mache and of
Mrs. Mache are still pending a
gainst Porter. '
With one exception this is the
first verdict of murder in the first
degree within Union county. The
other case was that of the state vs.
Evan Carver, who j filled, a, mari
namc TJeBoarij near' Jjlgin, four
or five ypars ago, j The supreme
court granted a new. trial, and Car
ver Is now serving a life sentence
for murder in the second de'gree.
Porter's sentence,; which under
the verdict can be nothing but tho
death penalty, was pronounced
yesterday morning. 1 '
KAFFIR CORN,
Kansas Farmers Speak Well of the
Product,1
A correspondent writing from
McPherson county, Kansas, rela
tive to Kaffir corn, says:' "Having
made numerous inquiries , the
answer generally seeras to be in its
favor.'' ... V- - v ;- v
"In two other counties where we
have made investigations, stock
men say that they have used it
successfully in feeding cattle for
the market. They do not agree as
to its value compared with corn
bushel for bushel. Some claim
that it is beUer, others deny this.
But all agree that it can be made
to lake the place of corn to a very
great extent.
"In this county the farmers all
speak well of it, On man who
stall fed cattle with corn and
another lot with Kaffir corn, sara
the latter lot did just as well.
"It is said to be better . than
Indian corn for horses, especially
when thty are not worked hard.
"For ponltry and for general use
on a farm, for feeding such homes
and cattle as a farmer usually
keeps about him, it will take the

place of corn and do exactly as
well.
"Kaffir corn flour is good for pan
cakes, and also for such uses as
graham is usually put to. Some
say it makes good biscuits. Tastes
will probably' differ on these mat
ters but many are already using
the flour, and there will probably
be 6ome demand for it.
"The conclusion we draw from
what people tell us is that every
farmer will do well to. put in a
small patch, say ten acres,' instead
oi inai area ot Indian corn. He
will be pretty sure to get a. valu
able crop.
"But don't expect Kaffir corn to
grow of itself, it won't. It must be
carefully cultivated. But when
properly cultivated the crop is very
sure. It is probable that we do
not )'et know all about it that is to
be known, and it will be well to
begin with it in a small way and
branch out when we get more ex
perience." Tho little daughter of Mr. Fred

A patron of the public school of

little daughter, asking that she

grounds that the little one is
simply a loan from the Lord, and
the exercise is regarded as beinsr
altogether of a too worldly nature.

A CHURCH SQUABBLE
Factions Fight In a Dayton
Church House.
BLOOD FLOWED FREELY.
Love Affair Said
Cause of the
to Be the
Row.
The Dayton church row among
the Baptists, which reached a crisis
Saturday morning about 4 o'clock,
terminating in a bloody battle, was
the outcome of a love affair.
In the first place the fued started
over Bob Hester engaging himself
to two young ladies, Miss Mary
Zables and Miss May, the latter
being the one whom he married.
Mary Zables, was a dressmaker.
Hester went to Honolulu, and sent
her a handsome silk dress from
San Francisco. Miss Zablea made
the dress, preparatory to her mar
riage to Mr. Hester oti hia return.
When Hester did s return, six
mouths later, he brought with him
another silk dress for Miss May
May's wedding gown, and Miss
May took it to Miss Zables to have
it made. The latter, prompted by
curh.ty, asked Miss May what
occasion it was to be for, and Miss
May told her in confidence that it
was her wedding gown, and that
sho was going to marry Mr. Hester,
and the girl learned for the. first
time that they were expecting to
marry the same man, '
Both girls were members of the
Baptist church, and tho affair to a
church trial, the result being that
both the handsome wedding gowns
were burnod in the church stove.
Subsequently Hester ingratiated
himself into Miss May's iavor again,
and she became his wife. Miss
Zable's friends . took it up, and
wanted Mr. and Mrs. Hester put
out of the church, and then it was
that the church divided into two
factions the Hester-Booth faction
and the Bodwell-Samuels brothers
faction and there lias been a row
ever since over the possession of
the church. r ." "
About three weeks ago .Levi
nkony, the Walla Walla banker,
locked the doors against both fac
tions, as he had a-mortgage, on tho
church. The Hester-Booth faction
went to Walla Wallii, pai.i the in
terest -and got possession of the
church, which they have kept since,
until Saturday morning, when the
Bodwell-Samuels faction broke into
the church, taking the sleeping
guards by surprise, and precipita
ting a bloody fight.
The floor and tho walls were
spattered all over with blood.
Several were injured besides
Bodwell, who nad his head nearly
split open.
This row has been going on for
more than a year, and it is said
that tho whole town is divided on
the subject.
It is said that Hester wag en
gaged to six young ladies at one
time, but Miss' Zables is tho only
one who has caused him any
trouble. : !
; BflLIi 'ANOTHER VERSION.
The Walla Walla Statesman's
Dayton correspondent throws ad
ditional light on the circumstances
of the trouble in the First Baptist
church at Dayton. Saturday morn
ing advices to the Statesman say:
"The war in the Baptist church
in this city, that has been raging
for several days, developed new and
sensational features this morning.
The war originally broke out over
a difference of opinion as to whether
certain money that had been raised
should be appropriated toward the
payment of the church debt, or
used' to purchase a new carpet.
The Hester faction favored, the first
proposition, while tho Samuels fac
tion favored the latter.
"Some time ago the Hester faction
broke into the church at night and
have since held possession by keep
ing a constant vigil night and day.
About 7 o'clock this morning, six
of the Samuels faction broke into
the church and gave battle to the
four members of the Hester faction
who had been left on guard.

ensued, Mr. Bodwell, a prominent
citizen, was' struck on the head

house of God was filled' with the
bitter curses, imprecations and
savage blows of the contending

never fought with more bitter

was displayed in this determined
conflict. The battle raged with

"There is a mortpage on the
church held by Levi Ankenvi TLia
will soon be foreclosed, unless the
Heotei faction raise funds to lift it.
The Samuels faction have washed
their hands of all efforts to pay the
oldchuich indebtedness.
"Complaints have been made in
the justice courts against those en
gaged in this morning's melee, and
the whole outfit will be arrested
and brought to trial.
"Such a scandalous occurrence as
this Dayton aflair is an injury to
the cause of Christianity and a
great detriment to the town. Sure
ly the alleged Christians engaged
in this fight have imbibed little of
Him whose coming was heralded
as "Peace on earth, good will toward
men.' There is a suspicion abroad
that many of our churches are filled
with narrow partisans and sticklers
for creeds and sects, who have little
or no conceptions of the true prin
ciples of Christianity.
"The sooner the world i3 free,
from such un-Christian churches
the butter it will be for real
Christianity."
