CLAIMS ALLOWED IJY THE COUNTY
COURT.
Tuo oflicla! publication of tho list
of claims allowed by tho county
coniuussioutrs court at Us April ses
slon appeals elsewhere. Tho list Is
much smaller thau usual, tho It
does not appear that any claims wero
rejeuted or continued. This is rutlicr
remnrkable, as tho only inference is
that every claim piesented wasaclod
upon, aud none found unworthy or
laid over for further investigation.
Close renders will soo that Ovo claims
wore cut In tho sum of $83.05. The
court Is to be encouraged in this line
of work, as few peisous aro awaro of
tho terrible extraneous pressure
brought to bear on a court to allow
bills, especially if they aro large.
The pauper bills are generally of this
clags aud right there Is whoro it re.
quires good Judgment, horso sense
aud a backbone llko Eiffel's Steel
Tower. Many claims of other
classes contain clear stealing aud
while a court should allow every
man a fair margin for honest Inten
tions, tho closest scrutiny of bills Is
required to prevent constant raids
on a treasury.
In making up a ngw county court
at tho Juno election tho people
should exercise tho greatest care.
Mr. Hubbard, the Republican can
didate for couuty Judge, and Frank
Auderson, Republican ciuidldato for
county commissioner, aro so far as
wo know, honest mon who never
took a dollar that did not. belong to
them or about which thero was a
doubt. Wo havo heard no Republi
can aud not a single Democrat say n
word against either of thoso two
candidates. Ono of tho candidates
against ono of theso gentlemen ia
not bo fortunate, as old citizens tell
us they aro not satisfied with tho
wny ho conducted publio offices
when he held them and was prop
erly retired for many years. This Is
tho verdict of mon of his own party.
Wo wich to warn the people again
of tho Importance of electing good
mon for county court officers. Tho
monoy-Bpendlng part of our county
government is alMmportaut. And
it is lu tho eloso so rut I uy of the bills
that much can bo saved. Wo ap
plaud tho good work of tho present
court in bringing greater ordor into
this important function of county
government. Let tho good work
go on.
THE IOWA DEMOCUAOV,
Tho Iowa Democrats leave Cleve
land and his administration nut of
their stato platform, TIhho Hawk
oyo Democrats 1110 not bouibous.
They havo tho courage of their con
victions and aro nothing If not
courageous. They havo learned thnt
tho name of Grovor Cleveland has
lost Its potency as a charm and
heuco they ceaso to worship. They
Idollzo Boles und no longer bow the
knee to tho Wall street Baal. T hoy
havo fairly knocked Qrover Clove
land out of tho raeo for presidont.
Tho Iowa Democrats prucllcally
say they do not want another four
years of Cleveland rule. Thoy Ig
nored mention of his numo or en
dorsement of his administration.
This Is a bold and cutting rebuko to
tho pretensions of what has ahvujs
been held up ovon by Democrats ob
an era of reform. Democratic
reform put 011 tho Btauo of politics
with Cleveland left out is llko the
play of Hamlet with tho melancholy
Dane omitted. Tho Iowa Demo
crats liavo omitted Humlet.
Tho Democrats of Iowa camo out
for an equally free bimetallic coinage
aud nominated u 0 udldato for tho
presidency who has carried tho state
twice, Tho Democrats of Oregon
repudiate their position of two years
ago In favor of free colnuge aud sit
down on tho only man in their
party who has enabled them to win
two victories. In Oregon in succes
sion. Tho Iowa Democrat a aro moro
progressive than thoso of Oregon.

Will be in Portland Sometiino Sat-
urday.
Portland, May 13. The United
States cruIserB Baltimore and Char
leston leave Astoria today at day
light for Portland aud will probably
arrive In the evening, or at all oyeHts
Saturday forenoon. To make fiure
of certain shoals and banks in the
Columbia river, which wero thought
to have shifted slnco tho last gov
ernment survey, Captain White
head, of the Baltimore, yesterday
had n couple of tbo ship's boats out
sounding theso doubtful places, and
tho reports wero perfectly satisfac
tory to him.
Considerable constornation waa
caused among Portland people in
Astoria by tho report that tho cruis
ers' ordors to proceed to Portland had
beeu countermanded, and that the
Charleston had received orders to
proceed to seu Saturday. Captain
Whitehead stated to several gentle
men who spoke to him in refer
ence to the matter that ho had re
ceived no orders other than thoso
received at San Diego, ordering theui
to proceed to Astoria to take part In
tho celebration of the Columbia
river centennial, and go from there
to Portland if ho deemed It pru
dent. Ho denied having received
any ordors to the contrary.
Tho rumor, however, that the
Charleston had received orders to
proceed to China Saturday, thus
making it impossible for this war
vessel to como to Portland, was
thought best to be looked Into, and.
upon inquiry Captain Plgney, of
the Charleston, admitted that he
had received ordors to proceed losea
upon that day, whereupon Captain
Popo, of tho centennial committee,
and President Oaborn, of the cham
ber of commerce, wero telegraphed
tho information with suggestions
that tho matter bo inquired into Im
mediately from headquarters at
Washington.
This was done, and the following
correspondence relating tothe matter
I Is herewith given in full, and whete-
in It Is emphatically stutcd by Sen
ator Dolph that tho senior officer of
the Charleston has been ordered to
take the erusiera to Portland unless
stiong reasons exist to tho" contrary,
and if so, that tho department be
Immediately informed of tho same.
