THU. MAEuEUR INDIAN AGENG.

The Walla Walla Statesman, whose
editor, Frank j. Parker, served with
the Idaho volunteers in the Bannock
war, commenting on an article in the
SILVER STATE relative to the Malheur
Reservation, says: ''rhis is the same
old state of affairs to which we have so
often adverted. If Rinehart should
succeed in removing the Indians to the
Malheur Reservation, the prosperity of
the country around it will be retarded
for many long years. We have proof
by us in his own hand writing of his
charging the Government for one, hun
dred and twenty-eight articles when
ninety three only were sold by. him.
His retention in the service of the In
terror Department is a fragrant disgrace
to the Administration. But for him,
many settlers who were killed by his
Indians last year, would now be living.
TO his disgraceful management all the
late troubles can be laid, and yet he is
allowed to again attempt another colon
ization, that if successful, will end in
another outbreak, with all it's attend
ant horrors. Let the citizens Of East
ern Oregon petition en-. nsasse for his re-
moval and the appointment of man
like Sam. Parish, and the objections of
the Indians would be overcome. The
sole idea of Mr.. Scott in getting the
Indians back, is to retain, the soldiers
at Camp Harvey. We know the whole
business, and in. justice to our friends
on the frontier, whose lives will again
be imperiled if Rinehart is successful,
we advise immediate measures to be
taken for his early removal. 1t is high
time"

Robbed by a Shark.

The wind being very light, we kept
the fish alongside on two long lines
or ropes to keep them cool as we'll as
alive. Soon after We began fishing a
big shark, fully sixteen feet long,
made his appearance, and Captain
Bell more than once with lance
drove him away from our game.
After we had turned homeward, per-
haps an hour or so. one of the party
discovered one entire line or string Of
our red game gone and the shark was
gone also. The general impression
WAS that the shark had bagged his
game while. we were not watching.
We had enough and to spare of what
was left by this rObber, and we
reached Fernandina elated with our
success.-Nrnandina CORES.

China has been indulging in little
civil service reform and the history is
rather amusing, as histories Of civil
service reform are apt to be. For
centuries China has kept up system
of competitive examinations of APP
plicants for public Office, but regu-
larly awarded the office to the man
who paid inost for it. Last yeag an
official who had got some revolution.
ary ideas in his head seized the occa-
sion of visit to Pekin to receive his
appointment as Governor Of prov
ince to ventilate them. Being asked
if he could suggest anything Of adj
vantage to the empire, he boldly re-
piled that the sale of offices was q
public scandal which ought t. be
abated. The aItho.ities appeared
to take the suggestion kindly, and a
decree was Sssped that the system
must be abolished and that all Offices
for the sale OF ranks and titles-for
there were regular offices for this
business-must be closed. The board
of revenue, however, soon served
notice that this would never do; the
government could not get along with
out the income it had long received
from this source. The upshct of it
all was that while the order for the
closing of all the old office selling
stands was allowed to remain in
force, the revenue board was author
lied to go into the business and sell
offices Throughout the whole Empire.
The unfortunate official who stirred
up all the trouble has met the usual
fate of the yeformer, He has been
made Governor at the poorest prov
ince that could be picked out. the
sale of titles therein has been specl-
ally abolished, and he has been di.
rected to devise some superior method
of raising revenue. At last ac-
counts civil service leform was not
exactly booming in the Flowery
Observation-Disclosures Times.

300 Reward for a Pet White Rat.

Areward of 500 is offered in SYRIA
cuse for the recovery Of a pet white
rat. A lady, who consumes an in.
ordinate quantity of morphine, had
a pet rat when she reached her
fathers house on visit last Friday.
While the opium-eater was dreaming
the pet rat fell out of the bosom Of
her dress, where she was in the habit
of carrying it, and was killed by
market men. The lady says she can
not sleep till she has another pet rat,
and has started for New York to OBJ
tain one. Her father says the rat
was perfectly tame and devoted to
its mistress, who is rational upon all
other subjects except this pet and
morphine or opium. She says she
was robbed of valuable rings while
under the influence of the drug, but
added: II can buy more rings, but
will give $500 to regain my darling
rat."-Syracuse Herald.

A Newspaper For ALI the World.

The newspaper Of the future is at
hand, and it comes-out of the Vati-
can. For some time there have been
rumors afloat that the papal power
was about to avail itself specially of
the modern fundamentally of the
press, and on grand scale, viz: a
great paper, to be published in all
the known tongues Of the world.
The thing has now taken definite
shape enough to create great emo
ton. Among the compositors men
will be needed who can set type in
Russian, Danish, Arabian, japanese,
Irish, etc, etc, as well as in the easy
French, English, German, Italian and
Spanish. The title fixed on for the
new journal is to be The World--its
function to publish the voice of truth
to all the earth. AS the machinery
for such paper is all at band in the
Propaganda, tha organization is sim
pie enough and need not take much
time.
With the Roman love, however, for
visible display, there is to he an I'M
mense amount of material construc-
ton. The new paper is to have a
special establishment--a "palace y
having ground floor area of 13,05O
square metres. The first floor is to
he assigned to composition rooms,
the second to the editorial. The
printing presses will be built into the
ground in an interior court. The
cost of the building Is estimated al
100000. The design of the palace
embraces fine church tor the use OF
the institution. Cardinals Newman
Hergenrother and Others are men
toned as writer's for the new journal

A LION AROUSED.

Stirring news comes from Cali
fornia. George G. Gorham having
intimated that the recent Republican
State Convention of California was
run in the interest of monopolies,
Frank Pixley, editor of the Argonaut,
who was Chairman of the Convention
attacked Gorham. The latter replied
to Pixley at public meeting in San
francisco last Friday evening. Over
two hours and quarter were oocu-
pied in the delivery Of the speech,
during which GorIiam charged that
the Central Pacific magnates, who
never put ia the enterprise over
$l1,500 Of their own money to begin
with, were to-day the owners of
S1sG556, 900 o. over and above all
Indebtedness. In paying his respects
to Pixley, Gorham charged him with
having shown hostility TO the rail.
road, and soon thereafter, on his re'
turn from visit to Governor Stan
ford at Menlo Park, to have advo-
Gated the railroad cause. He also
charged Pixley with being an un-
convicted felon, and, E'r being now
at large, to be indebted 10 witnesses
whom he tGorham) could name. He
also assured him that if he denied
one syllable of what he said be
(Gorham} would post the positive
evidence Of his guilt on the walls of
the city.
As Mr.. Gorhap haa signitfed his
intention of delivering his speech
throughout California, and announced
that he reserved his action toward
the Republican candidates until they
had publicly yepudiated the managers
of the Convention which nominated
them, it is believed that he will not
support the Republican ticket in the
coming campaign.

-THE police seem to be chal-
longing public attention all around
lust now. Columbia, South Carolina,
has been greatly stirred up over a
brutal outrage by so, called defender
of the public peace. John English,
a planter, was SO unfortunate as to
fail into the hands of a policeman,
and before that individual got
through with him he had been
dubbed so severely that he died in
few hours. The dead mans brother
thereupon notified the murderous
policeman that he would shoot him
on sight. He was promptly arrested
for his threat and was being taken in
a carriage to Jail, when the police
man caught sight Of him and began
firing away at him. A brother po-
liceman offered to help, and between
them they fred several shots at tine
carriage before it got out of range,
though, happily. none of them took
effect. The policemen were at last
arrested and public feeling grew so
strong against them that the Governor
called out two military companies to
guard the Jail and prevent thseat-
ened lynching.

An effort has been made to draw the
color line at the communion table of the
Marlborough NJ. E. Church, near New
burg, N. Y. On communion Sundays
the colored brethren have waited until
the white brethren partook of the Lords
Supper. For some time a feeling has ex-
listed in reference to the matter, several
of the colored members refusing to par
take of the sacrament unless they could
do so along with the whites. The
mooted point has been talked
about privately for months among the
members, white and black. On Sep
tember 7th stranger occupied the pull
pit, the regular preacher, the Rev. A. M.
Osborn, DID,, being absent on vacation.
Before the regular services began the con-
gregation was startled to hear the preach
er state tfat vote would be taken then
and there on the color line question. The
votes were cast by the uplifting of the
right hand. Six or seven hands were
raised in favor of the colored people be.
ing allowed the same privileges as the
whites. No vote was cast in the mega
tive. A number of the church members
have stated that they will never enter the
church again unless the action taken il
rescinded.
