Professor Henry Lee, of Oberlio, Ohio, was the principal orator. In speak- ing of Southern outrages lit: s&id among other things: ''I say that if the outrages done oar people iu the S"Uili be not pre vented by the strong arm or the admin istration nor disapproved by a word of condemnation from the party of our choice, that ihe colored man's devotion to the party of the present administration, the long suffering and forbearance of our people may be changed to hate, and striking out in e in some other quarter. It is agreeable Ior us to abide with the party ot the present administra- tion, but if we are driven from it iy the utmost neglect and dssregaid of our own rights, and by the basest ingratitude, the blame will not be our. I have much hope for our people although clouds are toweling around us." THE QUEBEC DISASTEB. Quebec, Sept. 23. The funeral of the victims of the recent landslide took place to day.

New York, Sept. 23 Speaking of the result and effect of the great London strike, Henry George said: "The strike was a success, but mat does not solve the labor, nor pretend to, ouly in this much, that it awakens the popular mind to the c.onrlition of affairs and makes all look lor some real remedy. John Burn", a noble man, who handled this strike like a general, is a socialist. He is a working-ma- n self educated, with a great personal force and an unselfish purpose. He sees li at the strike can never Eoive the great labor problem of the age and so he relies on promises aud delusive hopes of socia- lise as h's remedy, and if the single tax idea is rtjected bis remedy, it seems to me, is only an alternative result of the The strike certainly was encour- agement to the dissttibtied and I am greatly mistaken it it does not tend to strengthen the strke spirit both in Eng- land aad America."

Kansas City, Sept, 23 A special dis- patch to the Times from Eldorado, Kan., says: The details of the mob trial under lynch law of Alonzo Edwards and bis wife at Rosalia, tor tho alleged murder of Henry Bloomer's 3 year old cnild, as de- tailed in these dispatches Saturday night, are of the most revolting character, and reveals a story of inhuman treatment sel- dom met witli even on the border. The "child, it appears, was left iu the care of Mr. and Mrs Edwards, while Bloomer and his wife went to work in the fields, last Tuesday. That evening the child was missing and a search by the neighbors Wednesday and Thursday fai'ed, revealing no trace of its where-- a bouts Friday night the prisoners were placed in the jail here. From that time until this morning a mob, varying from 500 to 1500, has continually surrounded the jail, clamcring for the lives of the accused, but the sheriff kept them at buy. Early this morning the child was found alive and well, sitting on the door step of a farmer near Rosalia, where it had been all the time. It is a mystery. It is sup- posed that it was kidnapped and returned when it was learned what excitement its disappearance was causing. Mr. and Mrs Edwards" have been released. They are still suffering from the effects of the harsh treatment received, and an attempt will be laade to prosecute the leaders of the mob. AN INFANT MUBDERED. Seattle, Sept, 23.

IMPORTANT DECISION BY GEKEBAL LAND OFFICE. Washington, Sept. 24. The acting commissionei of the general land office has granted a motion to review the decis ion of Commissioner Stockslager. of Feb ruary 23," 18S9, in which indemnity for school lauds iu the Sileiz and Grand Ronde Indian reservations was refused. The liw grauiing school lands to Ore gon proud s for 'lideBinity iu cr.ses where lands are sold or otherwise disposed of. The acting commissioner holds thut the sixteenth and thirty sixth sections, which lie within the boundaries ot the two named reservations, are disposed of with in the meaning ot the law, and following Ihe decision ot Secretary Lamar in the case of Colorado, he holds that the state has a right to select other lands in place thereof. Aciing Commissioner Stone, in closing his decision, savs: ''It is clear there is an apparent conflict it. opinions as to the effect of certaiu school sections being within Indian reservations at the time of the taking effect of the grant. I think Ihe weight of oi.inion is that a res erration for Iudians is a disposal of land in the meaning of the act. Whether I am i ;ht or no? on this point, I feel safe in following the opinion of t lie secretary of the inierior in ihe Colorado case. The facts in that case are similar to these, and I therefore revoke the decision of Febru- ary 23, 1SS9, and hold that the state ot Oregon has aright to select indemnity for school sections, lying within the Siletz and Grande Ronde Indian reservations. As for all other questions touching selec- tions and lists, they are reserved for pro per action under the law when the lists come before the department for approval. This decision is regarded as important, as it will govern in all similar cases, of which there is a large number in different parts of the west. COMMISSIONER ROOSEVELT. Washington, Sept. 24. Theodore Roosevelt, civil service commissioner, has returned from a bear hunt in Montana and a stay on his ranch in North Dakota. Concerning the political outlook in those two territories, he said: "1 am con fident that Carter will be elected to con- gress in Montana by a good round mnjor-it- y, and I think that we have at least an even chance for the entire state ticket and legislature. I know nothing of my candidacy for the United States senate in North Dakota, except what I have seen in the newspapers. I don't know how ihe report got started, I take no interest in it whatever." A SCENE OF AGONY. Chicago, Sept. 24. Five innocent livse paid the penalty of the wanton careless- ness ot a railroad engineer at the corner of Vincenr.es avenue and E:ghty seventh street, this city, this evening.

This evening the car was, left as usual, when a moment later the is were horrified to see bearing down upon thein, at the rate of twelve miles hu hour a heavy freight train on the same road. Tlieie was no time for flight. The eugineer reversed bis engine, but with almost undiminished speed it plowed into the passenger coach until the locomotive was hiddeu entirely in the wreck.

Dr. Logan, the company's physiciau, at tended to his injuries, and he is getting along nicely. The number of dwellings erected around the old garrison during the past season is wonderful. Almost eyery lo; of ground in that vicinity has been improved and some building erected thereupon. Boise Statesman: Many prospectors are starting out from different parts of the country to explore the sand bar along Snake river. Many of these bars paid well in t ti mer years and the low state of the river will make it possible to work them again prolitahly. Miss Anna Diekinson made some success as a lecturer, failed as a actress, but has now for a single woman shown a sagicious capacity lor domestic economy and discip line.

Ellensburgh Heghtfr: A young orphan girl some 12 nr 13 years of age, living with a family by the name of Sullivan who are at present living at Joe McLecud'sold place oa tne roaa to Ijossem s Mill, mysteriously disappeared about dusk on Monday even- ing, Sept. 9th. She carried with her a small bundle and was tracked as far as Wil- son creek, where she crossed cn a stone dam, w here all trace was lost. Albany Democrat: John Hayes, a Blue Creek, E. O., farmer, was found dead under a wagnu load of rails on the Blue Creek hill last Saturday evening. He had been dead several hours when found. The brake of the wagon suddenly gave way and the wagon surging upon the horses caused them to veer to one sine thus overturning the wagon upon Mr. Haves. There were no bones broken and only a few bruises on the face and head. Hold vour breath while vou read this from the Ellenshurgh lienister: "The Dem- - crats will be "Wiery" about October 1st when they realize how "semple a matter it is to "Ferry," the republican forces across the stream of success,. You can "Reed" the handwriting on the wall and learn that we "Dunbar" anybody and are not particular about "Stiles." The tale "Wilson be told, though it will be a "Sharp" contest and require a "Power" of the " (Fright" kind of work. Astoria Pioneer: Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Clara Houghton made final proof on her homestead entry in the office of County Clerk Trenchard. Mrs. Uoughtou is 81 years of oge, and has lived and worked faithfully for six years on her claim, which is over at Clatsop. She is a vigorous look ing old lady; came to Oregon from Califor nia in 1C8. She has nearly all the 100 tract fenced, aud has made various other improvements. Sli3 has for company a grandchild. It is an unusual case for so old a person, and especially a lady, to be secur- ing government land, anil it shows in itself that Mrs. Houghton is possessed of the true grit that has been inspired in Oregon pio- - neers. Tho story of a queer fiud comes from Idaho: Mr. Benson, a dairyman, who has resided in Ketchum for the last two or three years, has an old wagon which he bought eight years ago in Boise City. The wagon has been in use nearly ail the time ever 8i nee. One day last June Mr. Benson was going over the summit with his wagon wlen something broke. In examining the wagon he found a piece of tin which bad been tacked on had come loose, and in talcing the tin off two bars of gold dropped out. It appears that a hole had been cut in the wood, the bars placed in this prepared space and the tin tacked on to cover it up. Mr. Beuson sold the two bars of gold for $1700. Mr. Benson formerly resiJed in or near Boise City, but who the man is that eon-vert- bis wagon into a portable safe will very likely never be known. The first locomotive engine constructed in the United States was built by a native of New York, the late Peter Cooper, in 1830, at his Canton iron works, near Balti- more. It was made from his own designs and was named "Tom Thumb." It was a very small tractor engine too small for practical use. On a trial trip it drew a car with several Ealtimoreans in it from Balti- more to the Relay Houre, a distance of nine miles. Excltange. This is a mistake. Father Harmarf, who is now 85 years old, and is confined to his rooms by the infirmi- ties of old oge, crossed the Atlantic ocean with the first locomotive engine ever brought to this country, which was made after the pattern of the one then in use in England and manufactured by the Stephen-so- n Bros. Father Harman put the locomo- tive together in New York, and this was used as a pattern for many others. Pendleton Tribune: The trial jury very promptly acquitted Officer Durham, who was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon upon the person of a tramp. In the early summer Pendleton was infested with hobos, and their depredations were quite numerous. About the middle of Juiy Durham found a party one night where they had no business to be, and were acting very suspiciously. He undertook to arrest them in the name of the majesty of the law. They tried to escape; he tired and one was winged. For this the officer was arrested and the grand jury indicted him. He was defended by Hon. J.C. Lcasure and prompt- ly acquitted. The of the com- munity had been with Durham all through the trial. There was a feeling that the genus hobo muit he dealt harshly with, or the community must suffer the consequen- ces., Durham is an efficient officer, and the people propose to hold up his ji anils. From Monday's Dally. The smoke is very dense in Pi ineville. There are three cases of typhoid fever at Prineville. Mr, and Mrs. T. G. Condon, of Antelope, are in the city. Sheep coming from the mountain range are reported in fair condition. Mr. Saltmarebe shipped sixteen carloads of sheep to Chicago this morning. Circuit court for Crook county convenes at Prineville the third Monday in October. Several carloads of fine cattle arrived in the city this morning for the coming exhi- bition. The rain yesterday cleared the atmos- phere of smoke, and makes all vegetation appear spring like and fresh. Mr. J. P. Mclne.rny returned yesterday from San Fraucieco, where lie has been for several days pac--t purchasing his fall stc:k of goods. The news reached Baker City Friday that Arthur Redmond; the murderer of Will Duncan, effected his escape from the jail in which he was contiued at Hurrn, South Dakota, and at last accounts was still at large. East Oregonian: Weston 4 Redd's sheep camp on Camas creek was visited the other day during the herder's absence hy sneak thieves, supposedly tramps, who made away with all the clothing, provisions, bedding, etc., they could find iu the cabin. On Tuesday night of last week, Mr. J. N. Williamson living at Powell But tea in Crook county, lost between fifty and sixty tons of hay by tire. There were horses tied to the ricks, but they were saved by stren- uous exertions of Mr. Williamson aud oth- ers. The fire is supposed to have caught by horses stepping ou matches.

Webdcll, brolher-i- n loy to John J. Davis, living near Tangent, has been a resi- dent of Crook county ftra number of years. Last June be came down on a visit to Mr. Davis'. When he left Mr. Davis' it was for the purpose of going to the Mal- heur country to look after some stock since which time he has not been heard from and Mr. Davis fears he has been murdered. Albany Democrat. Mr. Webdell was at one time a member of the legislature from this county, when it comprehended Crook and Gilliam. He was a highly respected citizen and well-know- n to rnauy. A flairs at the liOrKa. Castle Gabden, Sept, 23, 18S9, Editor Having noticed "Veritas" letter in last Wednesday's daily I came to the conclu sion that it would not be a bad idea to contribute a few facts I have in my posses sion. Three years ago there was a pretence of receiving bids for the boarding of help employed here. I myself have read the sworn statement of men, perfectly respon sible, that they offered to board the em ployes for $3.72 per week. The contract was awarded to the former proprietor S. O. Hcrsey, and when work commenced men's wages were reduced ten cents per day and they were charged $4.20 weekly for board. I boarded in this mess-hous- e at a time when the superintendent came swelling through the dining room, threatening to discharge a man for rapping some mustard off a spoon upon his plate, the man having made some little noise in so doing. I have sat down to a tcble there when for meat we had liver, actually rotten, and butter so rancid that when swallowed a man felt as if a saw had passed over his throat. As an instance of their tyranny with respect to forcing a man to board in the mess-hous- I will rehearse ttie following story: A man nt present working here hud taken up a ranch and placed his family, consisting of a wife nnd two children, upon it while he worked here. One of the family, a young girl, was very sickly when living on the homestead, but imme diately changed for the better upon re moval to this place. The man wanted to bold his land but he hud to work. He left the wife and son lo remain nt the home and thought to keep the little girl here for her health's sake, the two intend- ing to keep house together; but they hounded him into the mess-hous- and he was lorced lo ship the child home, where she died a few weeks later. This is writ ten as I have it from the man's own lips. A laughable scene was enacted yesler-- day, viz : that of the boss laborer trotting around with a lump of bull butter in a rag, endeavoring to get employes to sam ple same in interest tu ine mess-iious- This is his latest, a. snort lime ago he was stricken with the brilliant idea of taking up a subscription for a clock. He wns fearful of drawing on the U. 8. gov- - eminent lest it should disturb the surplus. Apropos of" JNorway" ana his survey ing, tie lounu n necessary to make a survey through the center of the canal, part ot the performance was that ot uiak- - ng a meander arounl an obstruction in the same. He took tho rather primitive method of measuring round it with a tape line. Carefully establishing lus point he imbedded a stone in cement placing in ine cenicr oi said .sionc a niceiy turned copper center; yet after all this artistic work he was ouly three and a half feet out of the way. "Quite a mean- der, indeed. He overheard the lieutenant remarking that it would be necessary to lake a survey of a certain slightly dis- abled sorrel horse, judge his worth and endeavor to dispose of him. "Norway," officious as is his wont, got his apparatus and sun-eye-d the eld horse from stem to stern and reported, but the result has never been made public. Running our stone yard is only a hoary relic of the polygamous past. Ho came to us with a flourish of trumpets, vowing to produce some wondrous innovations in the working of stone, something after the mauuerof that employed by the Egyptians during the building of the pyramids. But his schemes fell through. Re had been too long engaged in trilling on the 'Arp ot Ziou and found himself behind the times. lie actually did not know a piece of soapstone from n piece of granite. During one of the lieutcntaul's absences "Norway" aud our "Relic" combined made a grard mistake. We had cut a great many stone for the forming of the segment of an nrch. It all had to be done over again at a cost of not less than $3 per stone. Quite an item uselessly deducted from our appropriation. He cannot make out his monthly reports, and cannot measure the stone cut, but has to get one or our boys to do the work for biui. Granite. The "Floor Matter.' Boyd, Or., Sept. 21, 1SS9. Eutos TiMSS-Mo- i ntaisbie: The farmers' meeting held by the Wasco county farmers at Union schoolhouse Sept. 21, 1889, adopted the following in answer to the Wasco Sun's "Flour Matter": We see an editorial in the Wasco Sun of September 11th, entitled "The Flour Mat- ter," and had it not placed the whole mat- ter in so false a light we would have let it pass in silence; hence we give the other side to the public. To explain the reason for our action in this matter we will say, that the average farmer has this year lost at least $15C0 each in farm products, luch as grain, bay, vegetables, pasture, fruit trees and shrubbery. There are 800 or more farmers who draw their supplies from The Dalles; this would aggregate a loss to this number of farmers of over $1,000,000. Now we have been accustomed to getting our flour by exchange, and thus in exchanging onr wheat for onr flour it has cost us from $2.90 to $3.50 per barrel. But now that we are dronth-stricke- n and down, the combina- tion of the Diamond Mills aud some ot (he merchants have concluded to put their foot on us to tho tune of $4 to $4.25 per barrel for our flour. We have not asked any to gie us a cent, but we have asked that the Diamond Mills sell us flour and feed on the same terms that others buy it In regard to the matter of short weight of the Diamond flour we have but little to say only we know that what has been pub- lished is true, and that we have the corrob-ativ- e evidence of Mr. Curtis which places the editor of the Suit in an unenviable posi- tion before the public aa a swift and willing witness for a little trust. Numbers of our farmers have asked at the Diamond Mills to buy fluur and feed but have been told by Mr. Curtis that he had nothing to do with the oianagsmeut of the mill, but that Mr. Schmidt had charge of the whole affair rnd had contracted all of the proceeds to some of the merchants. So wo tee that Mr. Cur- tis bad no more to do in iruiiaging the null, or fixing the scales to weigh the flour than we had; and right here comes in the blame of Mr. Curtis iu putting bis name to an apology for short weight in the fluur when he neither knew, or it was his business to know, anything about the matter. Schmidt is the man that must know exactly w hat tho flour The farmers nre not after Mr. Cuitfs or his business (when prop- erly managed) or The Dal'es, for Mr. Cur- tis is one of us and The Dalles is our creature, for some of our money is in every brick that is laid there, end we feel too much pride in the growth of The Dalles to injure it ourselyes or let others by forming trusts there to drive business away. H. Rick, J . J. H. Trout, Com. W. H. Williams ) Geo. H. Riddell, Chairman, C. S. Smith, Secretary A Had Death. W. W. Union. At St. Mary's hospital, on Tuesday morn- ing at 5 o'clock, W. I. Graham died frcm injuries received on July 2Gth, near Riparia. He was in his thirty-fift- h year. This is a particularly sad death, the result of an ac- cident caused by the malice of trampr. Mr. Graham, who has been an engineer in the employ of the O. R, & N. company, bad been promoted but a short time to a passen- ger train, and in December, 1888, nad been married. He was highly thought of by the officers of the company and was a general favorite with his fellow employes. The accident, of which be was the role victim, was chronicled in the Union at the time, Children Cry for but will bear repetitior. The train from Farmington was late on leaving Riparia, and was running at a high rate of speed, along Snake river, about three miles this side of Riparia, when suddenly the engine ran into a ravine about 20 feet wide and 15 feet deep, the bridge over it haying been burned ly tramps. The fireman was thrown back on the roof of the baggage car while the tender piled up on top of the engine cab. Poor Graham, however, was caught by a broken rod and pressed close against the boiler, where for two long hours he lay, slowly scalded by the escaping steam, re his comrades could release him. Dur- ing this long interval he was reported to have maintained a brave front, and with words of cheer endeavored to persuade those working to release h:m, that he was not much hurt. He was brought to St. Mary's hospital, and everything possible done to aid his recovery, but the fearful injuries he had sustained were too great, and W. I. Graham, a favorite with everyone who knew him, died after a brave struggle for life. During his long hours of agonv, he was sus- tained by the presence of his young wife, who, since the first day of his confinement, has been cnnsrjint.lv f L, YnAa;.t vi. "J WW ...V U.I.UIUI.. .1. ,.

Attempted Onlraxe. W. W. Union. About 9 o'clock Tuesday morning Mrs. E. W. Croup, living nearly opposite the ladies' hall of Whitman College, was called to the door by a knock, and was con- fronted with a tongh looking character, who requested a drink of water which she gave bim, and after he had drank took the tum bler aud entered the house again. After putting tho glass down she turned to be coufronted by the tramp who bad followed her in. He immediately grabbed her by the throat, and raising his clenched fist said that if she tried to scream he would kill her.accompanying his words with the vilest Iangauge. The lady, half strangled bv the pressure of his clasped fingers, managed to give a half articulate scream which fortu- nately was loud enough to be heard bv a young man named Pierce, who roomed up stairs, and who on hearing the cry came running down stairs. Tho tramp hearing his footstep, released his hold on Mrs. Croup and ran away in the direction of wal nut groye. fierce followed him for a time, but was unable to overtake bun. and in tho excitement forgetting to give the alarm by a call when the neighbors might have come to his assistance. Seeing that the tramp was too fast a runner, Pierce came down town and notified the marshal, who in com- pany with Officer McClees made a thorough search of that portion of the city, but with out success. Meu are still on the lookout for the miscreant, who if found will be sum- marily dealt with. A Married Blaa la Tie ill. The Grant County ATetr says that Ren-- ben Fields, who obtained a divorce from his spouse, is now in trouble. His testimony before Judge Ison wss to the effeot that the woman be had married had a living husband already unknown to him, from whom she had not been divorced. Upon these grounds her marriage with Reuben was declared off, and the grand jury begau an investigation of the case with a view of indicting the woman for bigamy. Mr. Fields was called upon to testify before that body, and "as a sheep before her shearers ia dumb so ho opened not his mouth." Judge Ison had a bench warrant issued tor mm, and on h:i appearance before him inquired why he had refused to testify before the grand jury. Reuben said that the evidence he had pre- viously given in the suit was made in con- - fideoce, an-- " by answering questions before the grand jury he feared he might criminate himself. The judge informed him of the penalty attending a refusal to testify, but Reuben declared that be had given all the testimony that he intended to give. Sea-ten- was then declared that he be impris- oned in the county jail six months, and be fined two huudred aud fifty dollars, or im- prisonment one day for every two dollars of the fine.

Last Sunday, while a rodeo crowd was driving a bunch of cattle to Lou Hodges corral on Bear creek, three accidents oc- curred which resulted seriously to as many persons. The first occurred to a young man named Moore, recently from Lane county. His horse fell with him, and the fellow's collar bono was broken and his shoulder more or less injured. A little while after another horse tell, throwing his rider, a boy, who herded saddle horses for Logan. The boy was bruised np generally though no bones were broken. A little later on Buck Hinton "lassed" a calf. In the straggle that ensued his riata broke, the rope rebounding and striking Buck with terrific torce in the face, cutting the bridge of his nose and his cheeks in a fright- ful manner. It was truly a day of un- locked for accidents. The Mtate Fair. We find in the published list of premiums the following granted to people living in this vicinity. P. T.

John Burn", anoble man, who handled this strike likea general, is a socialist. He is a working-ma- n

self educated, with a great personalforce and an unselfish purpose. He seesli at the strike can never Eoive the greatlabor problem of the age and so he relieson promises aud delusive hopes of socia-lise as h's remedy, and if the single taxidea is rtjected bis remedy, it seems tome, is only an alternative result of the

The strike certainly was encour-agement to the dissttibtied and I amgreatly mistaken it it does not tend tostrengthen the strke spirit both in Eng-land aad America."

OFFICE.Washington, Sept. 24. The acting

commissionei of the general land officehas granted a motion to review the decision of Commissioner Stockslager. of February 23," 18S9, in which indemnity forschool lauds iu the Sileiz and GrandRonde Indian reservations was refused.

The liw grauiing school lands to Oregon proud s for 'lideBinity iu cr.ses wherelands are sold or otherwise disposed of.The acting commissioner holds thut thesixteenth and thirty sixth sections, whichlie within the boundaries ot the twonamed reservations, are disposed of within the meaning ot the law, and followingIhe decision ot Secretary Lamar in thecase of Colorado, he holds that the statehas a right to select other lands in placethereof.

Aciing Commissioner Stone, in closinghis decision, savs: ''It is clear there isan apparent conflict it. opinionsas to the effect of certaiu school sectionsbeing within Indian reservations at thetime of the taking effect of the grant. Ithink Ihe weight of oi.inion is that a reserration for Iudians is a disposal of landin the meaning of the act. Whether I ami ;ht or no? on this point, I feel safe infollowing the opinion of t lie secretary ofthe inierior in ihe Colorado case. Thefacts in that case are similar to these, andI therefore revoke the decision of Febru-ary 23, 1SS9, and hold that the state otOregon has aright to select indemnity forschool sections, lying within the Siletzand Grande Ronde Indian reservations.As for all other questions touching selec-tions and lists, they are reserved for proper action under the law when the listscome before the department for approval.

This decision is regarded as important,as it will govern in all similar cases, ofwhich there is a large number in differentparts of the west.

Tho story of a queer fiud comes fromIdaho: Mr. Benson, a dairyman, who hasresided in Ketchum for the last two or threeyears, has an old wagon which he boughteight years ago in Boise City. The wagonhas been in use nearly ail the time ever8i nee. One day last June Mr. Benson wasgoing over the summit with his wagon wlensomething broke. In examining the wagonhe found a piece of tin which bad beentacked on had come loose, and in talcing thetin off two bars of gold dropped out. Itappears that a hole had been cut in thewood, the bars placed in this prepared spaceand the tin tacked on to cover it up. Mr.Beuson sold the two bars of gold for $1700.Mr. Benson formerly resiJed in or nearBoise City, but who the man is that eon-vert-

bis wagon into a portable safe willvery likely never be known.

The first locomotive engine constructedin the United States was built by a nativeof New York, the late Peter Cooper, in1830, at his Canton iron works, near Balti-more. It was made from his own designsand was named "Tom Thumb." It was avery small tractor engine too small forpractical use. On a trial trip it drew a carwith several Ealtimoreans in it from Balti-more to the Relay Houre, a distance of ninemiles. Excltange. This is a mistake.Father Harmarf, who is now 85 years old,and is confined to his rooms by the infirmi-ties of old oge, crossed the Atlantic oceanwith the first locomotive engine everbrought to this country, which was madeafter the pattern of the one then in use inEngland and manufactured by the Stephen-so- n

Bros. Father Harman put the locomo-tive together in New York, and this wasused as a pattern for many others.

Pendleton Tribune: The trial jury verypromptly acquitted Officer Durham, whowas charged with assault with a dangerousweapon upon the person of a tramp. Inthe early summer Pendleton was infestedwith hobos, and their depredations werequite numerous. About the middle of JuiyDurham found a party one night where theyhad no business to be, and were acting verysuspiciously. He undertook to arrest themin the name of the majesty of the law.They tried to escape; he tired and one waswinged. For this the officer was arrestedand the grand jury indicted him. He wasdefended by Hon. J.C. Lcasure and prompt-ly acquitted. The of the com-

munity had been with Durham all throughthe trial. There was a feeling that thegenus hobo muit he dealt harshly with, orthe community must suffer the consequen-ces., Durham is an efficient officer, and thepeople propose to hold up his ji anils.

A flairs at the liOrKa.Castle Gabden, Sept, 23, 18S9,

EditorHaving noticed "Veritas" letter in last

Wednesday's daily I came to the conclusion that it would not be a bad idea tocontribute a few facts I have in my possession.

Three years ago there was a pretence ofreceiving bids for the boarding of helpemployed here. I myself have read thesworn statement of men, perfectly responsible, that they offered to board the employes for $3.72 per week. The contractwas awarded to the former proprietor S.

O. Hcrsey, and when work commencedmen's wages were reduced ten cents perday and they were charged $4.20 weeklyfor board.

I boarded in this mess-hous- e at a timewhen the superintendent came swellingthrough the dining room, threatening todischarge a man for rapping some mustardoff a spoon upon his plate, the manhaving made some little noise in so doing.I have sat down to a tcble there when formeat we had liver, actually rotten, andbutter so rancid that when swallowed aman felt as if a saw had passed over histhroat.

As an instance of their tyranny withrespect to forcing a man to board in themess-hous- I will rehearse ttie followingstory: A man nt present working here hudtaken up a ranch and placed his family,consisting of a wife nnd two children,upon it while he worked here. One ofthe family, a young girl, was very sicklywhen living on the homestead, but immediately changed for the better upon removal to this place. The man wanted tobold his land but he hud to work. Heleft the wife and son lo remain nt thehome and thought to keep the little girlhere for her health's sake, the two intend-ing to keep house together; but theyhounded him into the mess-hous- and hewas lorced lo ship the child home, whereshe died a few weeks later. This is written as I have it from the man's own lips.

A laughable scene was enacted yesler--

The "Floor Matter.'Boyd, Or., Sept. 21, 1SS9.

Eutos TiMSS-Mo- i ntaisbie:The farmers' meeting held by the Wasco

county farmers at Union schoolhouse Sept.21, 1889, adopted the following in answerto the Wasco Sun's "Flour Matter":

We see an editorial in the Wasco Sun of

September 11th, entitled "The Flour Mat-

ter," and had it not placed the whole mat-

ter in so false a light we would have let itpass in silence; hence we give the other sideto the public. To explain the reason forour action in this matter we will say, thatthe average farmer has this year lost atleast $15C0 each in farm products, luch asgrain, bay, vegetables, pasture, fruit treesand shrubbery. There are 800 or morefarmers who draw their supplies from TheDalles; this would aggregate a loss to thisnumber of farmers of over $1,000,000. Nowwe have been accustomed to getting ourflour by exchange, and thus in exchangingonr wheat for onr flour it has cost us from$2.90 to $3.50 per barrel. But now that weare dronth-stricke- n and down, the combina-tion of the Diamond Mills aud some ot (hemerchants have concluded to put their footon us to tho tune of $4 to $4.25 per barrelfor our flour. We have not asked any togie us a cent, but we have asked that theDiamond Mills sell us flour and feed on thesame terms that others buy it

In regard to the matter of short weightof the Diamond flour we have but little tosay only we know that what has been pub-lished is true, and that we have the corrob-ativ- e

evidence of Mr. Curtis which placesthe editor of the Suit in an unenviable posi-

tion before the public aa a swift and willingwitness for a little trust. Numbers of ourfarmers have asked at the Diamond Mills tobuy fluur and feed but have been told byMr. Curtis that he had nothing to do withthe oianagsmeut of the mill, but that Mr.Schmidt had charge of the whole affair rndhad contracted all of the proceeds to someof the merchants. So wo tee that Mr. Cur-

tis bad no more to do in iruiiaging the null,or fixing the scales to weigh the flour thanwe had; and right here comes in the blameof Mr. Curtis iu putting bis name to anapology for short weight in the fluur when

he neither knew, or it was his business toknow, anything about the matter. Schmidtis the man that must know exactly w hattho flour The farmers nre notafter Mr. Cuitfs or his business (when prop-

erly managed) or The Dal'es, for Mr. Cur-

tis is one of us and The Dalles is ourcreature, for some of our money is in everybrick that is laid there, end we feel toomuch pride in the growth of The Dalles toinjure it ourselyes or let others by formingtrusts there to drive business away.

ing at 5 o'clock, W. I. Graham died frcm

injuries received on July 2Gth, near Riparia.

He was in his thirty-fift- h year. This is aparticularly sad death, the result of an ac-

cident caused by the malice of trampr. Mr.

The fireman was thrownback on the roof of the baggage car whilethe tender piled up on top of the engine cab.Poor Graham, however, was caught by abroken rod and pressed close against theboiler, where for two long hours he lay,slowly scalded by the escaping steam, re

He was brought to St. Mary'shospital, and everything possible done toaid his recovery, but the fearful injuries hehad sustained were too great, and W.

Attempted Onlraxe.W. W. Union.

About 9 o'clock Tuesday morning Mrs.E. W. Croup, living nearly opposite theladies' hall of Whitman College, was calledto the door by a knock, and was con-

fronted with a tongh looking character, whorequested a drink of water which she gavebim, and after he had drank took the tumbler aud entered the house again. Afterputting tho glass down she turned to becoufronted by the tramp who bad followedher in. He immediately grabbed her bythe throat, and raising his clenched fist saidthat if she tried to scream he would killher.accompanying his words with the vilestIangauge. The lady, half strangled bv thepressure of his clasped fingers, managed togive a half articulate scream which fortu-nately was loud enough to be heard bv ayoung man named Pierce, who roomed upstairs, and who on hearing the cry camerunning down stairs. Tho tramp hearinghis footstep, released his hold on Mrs.Croup and ran away in the direction of walnut groye. fierce followed him for a time,but was unable to overtake bun. and in thoexcitement forgetting to give the alarm by acall when the neighbors might have cometo his assistance. Seeing that the trampwas too fast a runner, Pierce came downtown and notified the marshal, who in com-pany with Officer McClees made a thoroughsearch of that portion of the city, but without success. Meu are still on the lookoutfor the miscreant, who if found will be sum-marily dealt with.
