Oue would think to read the advertisements! of some of the merchants
that this is a very poor place to do business in. They are continually
HELLTNG OUT AT COST. How do the keep up? Are they supported
by charity, or arc they and their advertisements frauds?
Salem is a prosperous and growing
well and making money, and any right-minded, man knows that wtien a
a merchant advertises to sell "at cost," that it Is always at what it "costs
the buyer." Men do not go into business for fun or for their health, but
to make money.

never advertise to sell ofl'at cost, yet wo are constantly 20 to 30 per cent,
lower than any other house in .Salem. Why? Because we buy from first
hands and for cash, and get our goods cheaper. Now during the months
of January and February only we propose to reduce our prices on all goods
and show the people of Salem and the surrounding country how we can

FORMIDABLE BARRIER
The Union Pacific Having Hard
Luck With the Snow.
RIDE OVKU THE CRUST ON HOUSES.
An Unfortunate Fireman Killed
Trains Four Days Lnto UIIiuiuN
Peel Very Illue.
Pi:ndleton, Or., Jan. 17. Thurs
day afternoon an accident occurred
between Kamela and Hilgard on
the Union Pacific, which resulted
in the death of Frank 'Wellinau
and serious injuries to Engineer
Hooker aud Conductor Fisher.
From the most authentic account
obtainable it seems that an engine
with a caboose attached was buck
ing snow down the mountain with
a pilot plow.
The icy condition of the rails
cttised the engine and caboose to
leave the track, overturning as the
did so and catching the three un
fortunate railroaders. Welhnan was
instantly killed. His dead body and
his two wounded companions were
conveyed to La Grande.
A fast mail train arrived from
Portland last night at 9 o'clook,
bringing a lot of mail for this point,
and remained here, It being yet im
possible to run a train oir the
mountains.
A snow plow from The Dalles
pasted through Pendleton this
morning to clear the tracks on the
mountains, aud it may be possible
to run a train east by to-morrow.
Tassengers for points in the East,
who have been living in the ears
hero for the past four days, sincerely
hope for such an event.
snow veky rni:i
The blockade of the mountain is a
terrillic one. Trainmen report
heavy drifts all along the line. The
work train which was sent up yes
terday t repair the bridge demol
ished by a snowslide near Wilbur
got no faither than Caytwe. A cut
filled with fifteen feet of snow for
500 yards, was struck near that
place, the snow being so packed and
solid that Indians rode their ponies
ovor the top of the drift. Engineer
Leavltt pulled the throttle wide
open and drove his iron horse
into the snow until it was complete
ly buried, but all to no purpose, aud
the train was compelled to return.
The snow plow, sent up this morn
ing, is in good trim, and may be
able to clear the track. It was push
ed by two engines and followed by
v repairing outfit bound for the
scene of the snowslide fo repair the
damaged bridge.
No traiu will leave to-night for
Portland. No. 2 will arrive in Pen
dleton from Portland to-morrow
morning, bringing mail. A traiu is
expected to arrive at Pendleton to
night from the Spokane branch.
1'lie track on the branch had not
been cleared to Spokane Falls at last
accounts. All the tircaks in the
wires have been repaired.

Washington, Jan. 10. Walker
Blaine, solicitor of the state depart
ment, died yesterday of pneumonia,
superinduced by la grippe. His
deatli was very sudden and peaceful;
so sudden was it that the family was '
unable to return to the bedside be
fore he breathed Ids last. Walker
Blaine was tho eldest living son of'1
the secretary and Mrs. Blaine, and
was born in ISjj, being in his 3-3 th
year at tho time of his death. Ho
has always been closely connected
with his father ever since lie became
of age, and at the beginning of
this administration was appont-
ed solicitor of claims of the
state department, which posi
tion he llllcd with marked abil
ity and distinction. JIo was un
married. On Fiiday last ho was at
tacked by la grippe, but win doing
well until yesterday, when symp
toms of acute pneumonia uppetred
and his condition became seiiotis.
Last night ho became deliilous ami
never recovered consciousness.
Other physicians were called to as
sist Di. Mitgruder, to day, and late
this afternoon some improvement
was noticed, but it was only for a
short time. 1 he secretary anil fam
ily are completely prostrated. This
is the'third death in tho fa i ily in a

Impossible for (ho Judge to
J'ri'urrvo Order,
Si'eicani: Falls, Jan. 17. The
most rcmni kable, scene ever witness
ed in a court loom In Washington
was enacted in the police court
Wednesday. The occasion was the
preliminary examination of Harry
IJacr, charged with the. murder of
MeCrossin, bettor known ns "Bin
Mac." The largo room was crowded
to suffocation and hundreds were
turned away. Tlfb district attorney
Is absent In Washington. Ho left
no one in charge of his office, but
tiie wave of ptibllteentiment aroused
by a morning paper's revela
tion has mown ,so overwhelming
that highmiuded citizens employed
the law firm of Klngifc Leigh to op
pear for the state. Attorney Graves,
Mmior counsel for the defense, in 1 is
opening address made a vigorous at
tack on the Retipw's course in
searching out reputable eye witnesses
to the tragedy and printing their
statements, which were so wldily nt
variance with tiie white washing!
testimony developed at the coroner's
inquest on which was returned the
surprising verdict of jutifi
able homicide. When Attorney
King, the bright young attor
ney who prosecuted the boodle
councilmen recently, arose for the
state, a ringing cheer was his greet
ing. Alter order had been lcslored
with great difficulty, Mr. King said:
"Your honor, ibis paper is not on
trial hero; this isa tiilly attempt on
the part of counsel to avoid the law
and to eieate a side inttie. An
audacious attempt has been made lo
drive away reputable witnesses aud
prostitute the machinery of
justice. The leading paper ol
this eitj has laid bare
this foul cnnMilrncv and has
dared to do its duty. This efibrt to
taint the high services of that jour
nal in a disiaes lo the gentlemen
attempting it." The roar of ap
proval t!iatvjiixvetfiil.fieo words was
deafening. The court giew black in
the face in attempting to preserve
order, but to no avail. Lawyers
who have practiced for a lifetime be-
euro uie.v novtr saw un ining uitc
the scene enacted here to-day. The
case ten ml us the ruling sensation.
