A Statement
Supporting Secretary
Recent Action.
Noble
Washington, Oct. 16. A etiiteuient
prepared in tlie mterior dopartmeut,
in support of the aotion of Secretary
Noble in resoiudiun Commissioner Tin
ner's order advanoiag pensions from $2
to $4 per month in certain cases, was
ffiven out to-nigbt It oulls attention to
section 46,981 of the rovised statutes,
providing that except in cases of perma
nent speoifio disabilities no inorease of
pension be allowed to commence prior to
the date of the examining surgeon's
oertiflcato, etc., and enters at length
into a consideration of the various de
grees of disability, and the reason for
having allowed the $2 pension.
"If now, by the order of the commis
sioner," s.iys the statement, ''without
regard to medical examination, a man
who has been reoeiving $2 is advanced
to $4 without the man who is more
disabled and has been rated at SI being
himself advanced obvious injustice is
done to the higher graded man. If,
however, the allowance is made after
an examination by a surgeon, erything
has been done in due order and aooord
ug to law. If arbitrary orders, of the
commission are the basis, it must result
that a few are made favorites, and the
great mass who have to depend upon
medical examination are put to a great
disadvantage. Therefore, it was decided
that there was no authority in law for an
order arbitrarily increasing a great mass
of pensions in the face of the statute,
and which order is not extended to all
oases." -
Quotations are then made from Tan
ner's recent letter to Dulzell, in which
Tanner says that he issued the order
with a view to putting theise 82 men up
to at least 84, or drop them off the rolls,
and in which he said that he. ordered
them for examination before their home
board. The statement says: "The or
der as made Was arbitrary, unqualified,
and required an advanoe without an ex
aminat'on without the amount specified
was 84 per mouth. Itdid not propose to
drop any one, as the letter pretended it
did, and it did not order anyone for ex
amination, as the letter pretended it
did. It was an unauthorized, unquali
fied and illegal order for every pensioner
to be,advanced to $4 who was receiving
less. It was made n April 25, and it
was proposed to have it take effect Muroh
25.
A slight consideration of this matter
will show that to give away 866,000 a
month of public money on suoh an or
der as this would be but the beginning
of a system by which millions oould be
expended uncontrolled by law, as it was
unauthorized by precedent. There would
be no more harm in giving to Senator
Mandersou $4000, or more, than there
would be in giving 83,000 men 866,000.
In either oase it would be an unauthor
ized distribution of publio moneys, and
the door of the treasury might as well be
open to actual invasion as to have Bach
warrants drawn upon it, to be cashed
without questioning. It is, also, obvious
that suoh a course as this would not
benefit the soldiers ultimately, as it is
only intended to benefit those who are
the least disabled. ' There is no expres
sion and no disposition to prevent any
deserving soldier from acquiring all the
pension his disability entitles him to,
either by original application or appll
oation for inorease. All that is being
done is to maintain the law, to be 'liber
ally construed, but by no means to be
disregarded, and to allow each in bis
turn, without partiality, all be is enti
tied to."
pension Uommissioner Tanner was
seen this evening regarding the above
statement and made a lengthy reply in
which he sharply oritioised Assistant
Seoretary Bussey, and alleges that the
judicial reasons of the latter are emun
ation.s from the niiud of a member of the
pension bourtl of appeals, who was ap
pointed under thu Cleveland administra
tion alter hnviug failed to pass a civil
service examination. Tanner arraigns
Bussey for undei taking to put him in
false poxi'ion before the publio. The
order iu que.itiou, he says, refers to the
cases allowed on and after the date that
he took oflico, March 29. lie had deter
mined that he would not issue certif
icates for less than 1)4 per month, if he
had the power to prevent it. lie looked
into the law and fotiud that he had the
power, as it is broadly stated that the
ratings fixed by tiie medioal boards are
subject to a revision by the commission
er. Ho savol a vsi umouut of time
and trouble- b.7 ioauiog that order.
"Then," fluid lie, "I gave verbal orders
that those pensioned at lens than $4,
who had nn application oa file for an in
crease, accompanied by a certificate that
a medical examination had been held
within b year, should have their claims
adjudicated oa that examination and go
up to (4 or oft the roll. I. also ordered
verbally that all others should be sent
orders for medioal examination and
abide the result on a like basis."
Tanner contends that there is plenty
of law for his action.

NARROW ESCAPK FROM DEATH.
A Small Boy Falls Between the Wheel, of s
Moving Train The Rescue.
From tho Orojfonian, Oct. Id.
Shortly after 12 o'clock yesterday
noon, as the West Side O. & C. freight
train was passing the Holton house, a
small boy in attempting to steal a ride,
lost his hold and fell between tho wheels.
There was quite a crowd on the side
walk waiting for the train to pass and
everyone expected to see the boy crush
ed to death beneath the wheels the next
instant. Among the crowd was a tall,
good-looking hotel runner, with a heavy
blonde moustuohe. Quiok as a flash he
shot between several standing in front of
him, and grasped the boy by the coat
just in tin.9 to save his life. Another
second probably would have been too
late. The boy's life was saved by the
heroio act ot a hotel runner, who, when
asked to give his name, modestly replied
"Johu Smith," The crowd oheered the
bravery displayed by the unknown hero,
and the little boy soampered away, per
haps not realizing how narrowly he had
escaped a horrible death.
TUB POPE'S TEMPORAL POWER.
Com plaints or Throats Will Hnve No Effect
ou the Italian Ooverninent.
Rome, Oct. 15. A banquet was given
at Palermo lost night to Prime Minister
Crispi. In the oourse of his address he
touched upon the temporal powor of the
pope, and declared that complaints or
threats, either from home or abroad,
would have no effect cn the government's
position. He deolured that the pope
bad perfeot religious liborty and was
only restricted from enoroaohing on
the sphere of national rights.
LA GRANDE'S PLUCK.
The City Will Soon be Illuminated by Elec
tric Lights.
La Gkanuk, Or., Oot. 17. Another im
portant step iu the advancement of La
Grande vas secured todoy. At a meet
ing of the oity council last evening an
ordinanoe was passed under whioh the
La Grande and Edison Eleotrio Light Co.,
bus secured a fracohise giving them the
exclusive right for ten years to light the
city by eleotrioity. This company,
which is oomposed in the main by out
side capital, will pro oeed to ereot build
ings and to establish the plant at once;
work is to be oommenoed within thirty
days and the oity is to be fully lighted
inside of four months. The plant when
completed is to oost at least 815,000,
and the Edison patents exclusively will
be used. The company will put in 800
lights to start with. The stook of the
company is divided into 150 shares of $100
per share, and all shares have been tok
en and fully paid. As a result of this
vastly important upward stride of L
Grande, real estate has taken a sudden
jump upward. It certainly shows confi
dence in the future of this plooe for an
outside oompany to oome into our midst
and oomplete arrangements to expend
815,000 in eleotrio lights without asking
or roquiriug the city to use a single
light. Neither the city nor any private
oitizen has pledged to use a light, and
vet so strong is the desire for lights that
moo res of business men and families are
askinsr for lights to-day. That La
Grande should feel proud to be tho city
of ull the others in Eastern Oregon to
have the banuor plant in her midst is
not surprising.
OHKHON SCHOOL LANDS.
Decision in Favor of the Suite Regarding
Indemnity 8lectlon.
Washington, Oot. 10. Assistant Com
missioner Stone to-day rendered a decis
ion in a oase whioh involved the question
of proof in the school indemnity selec
tions in Oregon.
Oregon was granted every sixteenth
and thirty-Bixth section of land for school
purposes. The law also provided that
in case any of these lands had been en
tered under the public land laws prior to
the dote of the grant, the state should be
entitled to indemnity' selections from any
unooupied publio lands. In pursuanoe
of this authority the state, it appears, se
lected in the aggregate a large tract of
laud upon whioh expired pre-emption
filings wero on record. The question at
issue was whether the burden of the
proof of the fact that the filings hod ex
pired rested with the state or with the
parties who made the filings. The assist
ant commissioner holds in favor of the
state, and has directed that in all suoh
cases the pre-emptor shall be required to
appear before the local land office within
twenty days after receipt of the notice
and show cause why the entry has oot
been canoeled, thus throwing ti e burden
of proof upon the entrymaa.
It is said that there are a large number
of oases in the general land office whioh
will be disposed of thus.
THE BIRTH OF STATES.
Washington and the Dakota. Soon to Be Ad
mitted, Bat Montana'. Statehood May
Be Delayed.
San Fbanoisco, Oct. 17. A special
from Washington lays: The belief is
general that President Harrison is
about to issue his proclamation admit
ting the two Dakotas and Washington
to statehood. The president makes no
statement as to what he intends to do,
but in offioial ciroles the impression pre
vails that the proclamation will soon be
issued without Montana, unless the re
sult of the election there is very soon determined.
Silver Coinage.
New York, Oct. 11. The executive
council of the Amerioan Banker's As
sociation, after considering the propo
sition submitted to the recent convention
of the association by President St. John,
of the Mercantile National Bank of New
York, for increase of silver ooinage and a
corresponding decrease ot greenbacks,
adopted a resolution that the proposi
tion could not be recommended to oon
gress.
SUFFERING IN SOOTH DAKOTA.
The Crop, are an Entire Foliar, la Section.
on Account of Drought.
SlPaul, Minn., Oot 16, A. H. Trow,
formerly a member of the Minnesota leg
islature, but now. resident ot Miner
county, S. Dak., appeared at the state
oapitol today, soliciting aid for the Da
kota sufferers. Trow tells a sad tale of
desolation and want in Miner and the
adjoining counties, and says emphatic
ally that uuless aid is granted many
families must inevitably freeze or starve
before next spring. The crops in Miner
and a portion of Kingsbury and Sanborn
oounties were a oomplete failure on ao
count of drought.
BOISE CITY ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Cltiiens Furnish Th.lr Own Power nd
Light
the City cheaply.
Boise City, Oot. 17. This oity is onoe
again illuminated by eleotrioity. Du
ring the enlargement ot the eleotrio
light plant we went back to coal oil,
simply ot necessity; and that the neces
sity no longer exists causes universal
congratulation.
The electrio light company is peculiar
a local affair. A few years ago the rep
resentative of a gas oompany came here,
and would have furnished us gaslight
had our people been willing to put up
the money for the entire plant, and then
give halt the property to outsiders.
This didn't work. Then an eleotrio light
man oame along aud proposed to light
our oity on similar terms a generous
bonus to go into bis personal pooket,
and another outsider to be well salaried
to run the concern.
Our business men took up the mutter
on business principles; put themselves
in communication with the holders of
Edison patent ; found a seoretary aud
manager among our own citizens who
was willing to work for a sum which
might leave something for stockholders;
plaoed sufficient means with their treas
urer; seonred sn ample motive power
from the great Itidenbaugh irrigating
oaual at South Boise, aud soon had in
operation the best little electrio light
system iu these mountains. Compari
son of prioes and quality with all the
oitios of the territories around us, show
we are getting a better light for less
money than onr neighbors, and during
the second year of the existence ot the
company the stockholders were surpris
ed to receive 6 per oent dividends quar
terly. But the demand far outgrew the ca
pacity of the works, and a suspension ot
operations was decreed, while a general
enlargement and re-arrangement should
take place. The first plant consisted ot
two Edison dynamos of 1000-lights ca
pacity, and such an arrangement of the
works that a still further increase can
at any time be readily made. The man
agement is in the hands of Mr. J. W
Cuninghnm, who is also assayer-in-chsrge
of the United States assay office at this
plaoe.
This great success, economy and profit,
is made possible by the water supply.
The Ridenbaugb irrigating ditch was
sold a year ago to the Central Canal and
Land Company, whioh doubled the wa-
ter-aarrying capacity of the ditch. The
oanal runs along the plains south ot this
oity, while the eleotric light plant is in
the valley. Ths water is oonvey.d
through two great cylinders to
the brow of the hill, and then fulls sixty
feet, to the mammoth turbins wheel.
This power, so oomplete and economical,
is sure to become the foundation of a
great manufacturing system at no dis
tant day. After being used as a motive
power of such value, the water is return
ed to Boise river; is again taken out by
canals below the city, and irrigates rich
farms stretching over miles ot the great
plains.
The business ot Boise City was never
better than this tall, and our contractors
are pushed to the uttermost with build
ing orders.
The question ot the adoption ot the
constitution will be argued in mass
meetings from this time till November 6,
when we hope it will reoeiv. the hearty
endorsement of the people.

AODKEBSXD BY BLAINE.
After all had been reoeived individual

and expressed his gratification at ths
general response to the United States'
call to this convention. He weloomed
them to s deliberation npon subjects
whose importance was growing with ths
rapidly increasing intercourse between
the nations. He touched upon the value
ot making an unspoken language, to be

- All EXPENSIVE SPORT. '
Boeing Coat, the Anwrieaa People Nearly
13,000,000 Annually.
From the N. Y. Tribune.
The legal limit of racing in this state,
that is to say, racing with betting and
it is admitted that without betting there
can be no raoing is from May 15 to
Ootober 15. In these five months there
are about 104 racing days, distributed
among five associations the American,
Coney Island, Brooklyn and New York
Jookey Clubs, whioh are in the state,
and Monmouth Park.' whioh, though
beyond our jurisdiction, nevertheless
olaims a large share of our dates. It is
estimated that the average daily attend
ance at the races in the metropolitan oir
cuit is 5000. For transportation alone
to and from the tracks these people pay -the
several railroad companies 8325,000
in the season. Of the total average at
tendance, 2000 may be classed as dead
beads, so far as admission to the tracks
is concerned. The other 3000 pay their -way,
and the sum expended tor field,
grand stand and paddock badges is in
round numbers 8600,000. Of course no
sane race-goer ever spends on afternoon
at the track without helping the caterer;
so for beers, oigars, sandwiches, clam
ohqwders, etc, let us. set down an expen
diture of 25 cents apiece, which rounds
up nicely at the end of the season to $130,
000. Thns we see that the legitimate ex
penses of our little community of race
goers amount to mors than 81,000,000 in
a single season.
No one will question the statement
that these 5000 racegoers go to the races
to bet. They pay 81,055,000 for the privi
lege of backing their judgment At
least 8000 bet every day on the raoe, and
as 85 is the least that will be taken in
the ring, eaob speculator must be pre
pared to wager 830 on the six races.
This is the smallest estimate that oan be
made. Still, it is no insignificant sum in
the end, as it amounts to nearly 810,000, -000
before the close ot the season. But
there are hundreds ot men who never
bet less than f 50 on a race, scores who
bet 8500, and a few who cannot become
interested in a contest uoless they have
from $1000 to 810,000 on. Therefore it
seems entirely safe to say that the total
amount of money distributed in the bet
ting ring during the five months of legal
racing is at least $30,000,000. It this
830,000,000 were collected on Ootober 15
and carefully oouoted it is doubtful if
the sum total would be more than 810,-
000,000. A man wins to-day and loses
to-morrow. The plunger plays at see
saw ; up on Monday, down on Tuesday,
up on Wednesday, down on Thursday,
and at last down for food. When he
loses his neighbor wins ; when be wins
bis neighbor looses. Money goes from
hand to band and pooket to pooket dur
ing the season until it is nearly worn
out with obanging before the leaves be
gin to fall. It ia a common remark that
race-track money is the filthiest in the
world.
Do not imagine for a moment that the
bookmakers get all this money. Possi
bly they do pooket the lion's share, but
much of it finds its way into the treas
uries ot the jockey clubs, all ot which
pay handsome dividends, while ths rest
is distributed among the owners of suc
cessful horses sad a small baudful of suc
cessful bettors. The average number of
bookmakers doing business in the ring
is eighty. Their expenses are about
811,000 a day, or $1,144,000 a season, rep
resenting simply what they pay for Merk
hire and the privilege of milking the pub
lic. Their aggregate incomes amount to
not less than SHOO.OOO a year, whioh, to
gether with the 81,14,000 expenses, mak-
ng a total or 91,944,000. is actually lost
by the publio.
Mo, in oruer to enjoy tue pastime ot
raoing from year to year, the betting
community is required to make an annual
outlay ot $2,9.m,000. This sum is abso
lutely neoessary to Keep alive tue jockey
clubs and enoourage the bookmakers to
do business. The amount ot stakes and
purses distributed among owners ot win
ning horses is about 8825,000, but much
of this returns to the betting ring, where
it is redistributed among tue book-makers,
the clubs and the speculative publio.
