ON THE DEFENSIVE.
A County Grabber Tries to Cover His
Tracks.
The organ of discontent, referring
to county expenditures, ays: "The
stationary and printing expense (for
the year Just ending) is neatly tin Be
times what it was under the old court.
This Is In a measure accounted for by
paying the Statesman $500 for a tax
list advertisement, three times what
it should liayc cost." The public
should know that the old court
had conducted no delinquent tax sales
for two years. The -Statesman's bill
was for adycrtising two year's delin
quent taxes. It received 8500 for the
two advestisements, whereas Clacka
mas county paid $1400 for the same
work for one year's list. Douglas
county paid $900 -for one year. It is
not likely that any county in Oregon
paid less money for the two year's ad
vertising than did Marion. States
man. In past years The Statesman re
ceived $100 for one year's tax list, and
was glad to get it, fighting for the
business like u tiger at that price, and
that was In Hush times. But now,
when a dollar is worth as much as
two were then, It charges $500 for two
year's tax-list advertising. No won
der this tax-cater refuses to publish
anything about the gang that robs
the county to feed It.
The Mount Lebanon Shakers have
recently perfected an Ingenious cure
for dlspepsla. Their Digestive Cor
dial consists of a food already digested
and a digester of foods happily com
bined. The importance of this Invention
will be appreciated when we realize
what a proportion of the community
arc victims of some form of stomach
troubles. Thousands of pale, thin peo
ple have little Inclination to eat, and
what they do eat causes them pain
and distress.
This Digestive Cordial of the Shak
ers corrects any stomach derangement
at once. It makes thin people plump.

STRIKE,
The Climax Approaching!
Blood Will Probably Be Shed-Mob
Fired On Wild Excitement.
Scottdale, Pa., July 31. Wild ex
citement prevails here. As the nfter
noon turn of nonunion men, who have
taken places of striking ironworkers
at the Scottdale works, were going
liomc, one of them boiaine incensed at
the remarks of some boys, and fired at
them. A large crowd gathered about
the station at the time, and they
started a fUr the nonunion man, who
tired live shots into the crowd before
lie reached the boarding-house.
The hotel was surrounded by an ex
cited crowd, and It was with dllll
culty that Rurgcss Porter cooled
down, and had he not had the assis
tance of strike leaders there is no
telling what the crowd would have
done. Another nonunion man, whoso
name could not be learned, drew a re
volver and fired several shots, nc
was knocked down and pretty badly
beaten before he could be reached by
the officers and taken away. The sec
ond crowd Is massed about the sta
tion, and nonunion men are afraid to
venture out.
March With Bands and Flags.
Pittsburg. July 31. Having suc
ceeded in getting some of 'the miners
at the New Yoik & Cleveland Gas
Coal .works to remain awav from work
at Oak Hill and Uandy Creek the
strikers camped at Turtle Creek
started on a march to Sandy Creek
and Plum Cieck with the Intention of
closing these mines, and they have
made all p'ans to Intercept the Oak
Hill miners. Just before the strikers
started forSandy Creek .11 delegation
of miners from .the Muckler mines,
of the J. B. Corey Coal Com
pany, came in aud united with
them. The marchers; with their
bands and flags, were accompanied by
.1 large crowd of onlookers, mainly
employes of the Wcstlnghousc works,
who were confident they would wit
ness a scilmrnage.
The men who left the camp at Tur
tle -Creek numbered about 150, and
this party was augmented about mid
night by an open carload of striking
miners from McKeesport.
The deputies at the DeArmltt prop
erty number 125, tho majority of
whom arc at Turtle Creek and Sandy
Creek. Twenty-five deputies aro dis
tributed along the company's railroad
between Turtle Creek and Oak Hill.
It Is expected that trouble will oc
cur when the company's train comes
from Oak Hill to gather up the work
men for the mine. The sheriff swore
in some of the idle men at Turtle
Creek, men said to be In the service
of DeArmltt, and 15 more deputies
were taken from Pittsburg
After a weary time of waiting to
learn the results of the meetings of
the minors of tho New York & Cleve
land Gas Coal Co., the camping
strikers were a disappointed lot of
meu this morning, for the expected
exodus from the Plum creek, Sandry
creek and Oak Hill mines did not oc
cur. At two meetings the leaders an
nounced that the Plum creek miners
would come out and no more coal
would be dug until the strike was
won. The main interest in the strike
so far us DeArmitt's men are con
cerned is at Oak hill, two miles from
Turtle creek. The Oak hill miners
boarded the company's train at Tur
tle creek and started to work. What
the marchers now will do is not
known, but from indications given by
speakers It Is believed that largo
bodies of strikers will be brought to
the vicinity or the DeArmltt mines
and the demonstrations will bo kept
up
A call for a meeting or the United
Labor League on Sunday evening to
arrange for a mass meeting on August
5 was issued.

Intense now, If such a thing bo possi

Havana
Confident of the Ultimate Outcome
A Lively Skirmish.
New York, July 31 A dispatch to
the Herald fiom Havana says:
Havana's outposts have been again
attacked by a largo body of rebels,
who before the Spanish troops could I
gathered to resist naa swept
tnrougn inosuouros, carrying an oc-
.".
They used, It Is bclleycd, rapid-fir
,nK Buns and a larc quantity of dy-
namlte. Tho attack was made lato
last night. Today there Is an inclin
allon among the Spanish officials In
boom of htayy guns or dynamite could
be heard plainly till over Havana.
Then the sound of tiring Increased,
and finally arter a few hours, died
away, showing Unit the rebels had re
tired Several wounded Spanish sol-
" oro brougut to Havana ami re-
moved to hospitals after tho engage
ment, and several were killed.
The rctlencc of tho Spanish officials
prevents any knowlego of tho result
' of tho uttack becoming general. It Is
a fact, however, that great damage
was done by the Insurgents on their
bold raid and that a conMdlrablc
quanity of dynamite was used.
Thoro was great excitement In Ha
vana during thn rebel attack. ' Hun
dieds, aroused by the heavy firing,
poured into the -streets and the vord
passed along, "Tho rebels have at
tacked tho city," created almost a
panic In some quarters. There Is still
much excitement here, due largely to
tho refusal of the officials to give out
information.
This attack 0:1 Havana was not
unexpected. For weeks past tho reb
els have been within sight of the
capital and have practically moved
wltlnut Interference. The Insurgent
leaders near Havana are Brlgadlcr
Gcncral Castillo, with a largo force at
Mariano, nine miles southwest, and
Colonel Nestor Aranguren, of Guan
abacoa, across tho bay. General Alex
ander Rodriguez, rebel commander
of Havana province, with large force
is near Mlnar and Colonel Aranguren
Is at Colorado.
It Is believed the rcbal raid was led
by Aranguren, who is noted as one of
tho most daring of the icbcl chiefs.
Captain-Geneial Wcylcr has left
Havana for Matauzas, and the belief
is expressed that the knowledge by
the Insurgents of tills Intention on
Ills part led to the attack.
It Is understood that largo bodies of
insurgents have recently crossed from
Pinar del Hlo and Malanzas' and that
the rebels' strength In this province
has assumed formidable proportions.
Quintln Banderas with 60'l men Is
among those who have come Into tho
province from Mutanzas.
