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.

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.

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. jKW Are Confident.
