Hear the Salem is a prosperous and growing city, and all its merchants are doing well and making money, and any right-minded man knows that wnen a a merchant advertises to sell "at cest," that it is always at what it "costs the buyer."

DENVKK GIIIL, MUUIIRKEI).' Sbot Iu the Street lly a Cook WIiokc Ht- tentlona She ftepulsed. Denvkr, Jan. 23. For over a year aud a half .Bob Scott, a cook lu a Campa street restaurant, has been persecuting Nellie Ryan, a beauti ful waitress of 18 years, with his ai tcntious. Two days ago, Scott In sulted the girl. She reported him to the proprietor, who discharged him. Scott hwore he would be re venged, and as the &irl aud her sis ter were going to the restaurant this morning to begin the days work, Scott suddenly stepped from a doorway on the corner of a street and fired. A corset stave caused tho ball to glance, when she started to run. The murderer pursued her and fired two balls into her back, one passing through the heart, causing instant death. A crowd surrounded the man, who stood them off with his revolver and made his escape. The entire police force and a posse ot citizens are searching for him, aud if captured by the latter he will probably never Hye to stand trial. THE W. C. T. V. Address to tho I'aii-Ainerlcun Congress By Its Fresldeut. Chicago, Jan. 23. The National W. C. T. U., in an address issued to day over the signature of President Frances "E. Willard, and addressed to the South American, Central American and Mexican commission ers ot the Fan-American congress, states that the ladies read with sur prise that during the banqueting to which the nation's guests were sub jected intoxicat'ng liquors were served on every occasion and indulg ed iu by the Pan-American delegates. The W. C. T. TJ. expioss regret at this fact, and assures the Southern delegates that no better end can be subserved by them while in this country than to study the vast bene fits of the prohibitory law as prac ticed in eight states of the Union. KUNNING THIS HLOCKADK, Impatient Passengers Escnpo on Snow Shoes. San Francisco, Jan. 23. A number of passengers who were snow bound at Emigrant Gap, on the Central Pacific, have arrived here, having left the train and come by the snowshoe route. Peter French, of Luke county, Or., was among tho first who came through, and he reports haying had a stormy trip. Ho says that J. J. Jennings, a New Yori journalist, who came to meet Nellie Bly, gave out and wanted to lie down iu the suow. They hud to drag him along, aud constantly aroused him to do his best. Jennings, they said, was very plucky, but physically unable to cope with the snow aud cold. Not withstanding the hard experiences of the travelers, they did their best to kill time. They inaugurated the publication of a paper called The Dully Snow. Four numbers of it were issued up to tho time tho snow shocrs left. The Case of Senator Urlco. The New York World makes the assertion that the United States senatorship "has just been disposed of In Ohio, which cost tho purchaser at least $500,000." The World is one of the leading democratic papers of the nation, too. Although the legislature of the state of Ohio has elected Calvlu S. Bfice to the United States senate, it is regarded by some as questionable whether or not he will be permitted to take his seat. The constitution of the United States declares that u senator shall be an Inhabitant of the state from which he may be elected, and it is an opou question as to whether Mr. Brlce is an inhabitant of the state ot Ohio or the state oi Now York. The facts ot the case as given are that Mr. Brlce was born, reared and educated in the stale of Ohio. Up to a Bhort time previous to the year 1884 he lived lu Ohio and his busi ness Interests were identified with the affairs of that state. But he then removed to New York and sometime afterward made an affida vit that, at the time of making the uflldavlt, he was a resident of New York City and a house owner there. He maintained a costly home in New York where, until u few weeks ago, his family resided. He was admitted to various societies and clubs lu that city, among others the Ohio Society. But he held his house In Lima, Ohio, and in 1888 he took the Ohio democratic delegulion to the St. Louis convention to that city and was chosen a member of tho national committee from Ohio. The democratic papers that defetid Brlce claims that he was only a "few-holder" in New York. CONDENSED TELKGRAJ1S. Reno, Ncvnda, has 12 foot snow. More snow California. to the South, and Seattle and Tacniaare with burglars. Chinese are entering the overrun United States via Cuba. The deadlock In the Iowa house remains unbroken. Adam Forepaugh, the great Amer ican showman, Is dead. More snow in Eastern Oregon threatens another block. Ex-Senator Riddleberger of Vir ginia, is on liis death bed. The North Pacific is open its en tire length and trains on time. The jury in tho Pellis case at Portland found murder in the first degree. Elijah Myers, a G. A. R. man at Pendleton, died iu the blockade at Baker City. The Secretary of the Navy advo cates a Hue of buttle ships to cost $5,000,000. The republicans have dropped the claims of Goff to tho governorship of West Virginia. Heavy snow at Portland crushed in the roof of the Union carriage factory the 23rd. A drunken man at IColville, Wn., shot and killed a colored waiter with a ritle, the 22nd. The crew of the steamship Eriu, from Liverpool, is thought to be lost with all on board. The historic First parish church of Boston, Cougreg.itioual Uhitn nan, has been burned. Tho secretary of war says there is no necessity f,or troops at the Klam ath Indian reservation. The senate has agreed to the reso lution appropriating $500,000 for im provements on the Columbia. A democratic member from Ohio has introduced a bill iu congress to admit copper, lead and uickle ore "free of duty. Henry Push got a verdict for 10, 000 from tho North Pacific. Ho had both legs paralyzed by au acci dent iu Idaho. The four gentlemen from Montana claiming to be elected U. S. Senators appeared before the senate with credentials. The senate will puss on their titles. The Socialists have defeated Bis- mark. The reichstag rejected the expulsion clauseof the socialists bill, aud decided by a vote of 100 to 111 to make the measure permanent. It will interest all bankers to know that a favorable report has been ordered by the house committee on bunking and currency on the bill to authorize national banks to issue circulation to tho full amount of their deposited bonds. A corporation lobby having killed the autl-trust bill In Washington, another bill is in preparation and will make its appearance in a few days. It will not bo so radical as Kinnear's bill which was defeated. Tho penalty for tho first violation will be from $500 to $1,000 and for subsequent violations from $1,000 to $2,500. ISIUIOKS NOTES.
