essary machinery for the manufacture
Of all classes Of parlor, bedroom and
general furniture. They give steady
employment to four men, and are

timber almost exclusively, and their
work will compare favorably with
that OF eastern makers. At their
salesrooms on First street they carry
a complete assortment Of fall kinds Of
goods in their line, and also collins,
caskcts and metallic cases. They
have built up n fine reputation for

tnring facilities to meet the demand,

Our Noted Visitor.

Erastus Hadley, the erudite, able as
. writer, and one who has made ex-
tensive trips around the world and
whose name is too familiar to the
American people to need our comment.
ing, was in Lewiston this week and
called on US. He thinks the popular
idea in the minds Of the thinking
masses is the tariff question with its
pending agitation; he believes that we
are on the eve of chronic discussion
and legislation the like of which has
not been since the corn law struggle in
Great Britain. The squeezing process
he remarked of the monopolies with
their many years of unchecked license,
seems now about to arouse the patient
consumer to sense of what has been
going on. The latent spirit of popu-
lar antagonism seems 10 be increasing
in proportion as that issue becomes an
active element in national affairs the
laws in many instances which we have
made to prevent wrong have in them
selves become a source of wrong, and
out of them injustice has increased and
multiplied. The presidential election,
in his opinion, will be stormy and tu-
multuous, without a precedent or a
repetition. Too much principal will
be suhverted to passion, and too much
will be undone that can only be re-
retrieved through the glory of another
surrender, be it by the Mexicans or be
1T by the returning of severed West
or a disloyal East. If, said he, the
question of prestige were worth taking
into consideration, one could sum up
the names Of the different candidates
for presidential honors in ten words,
as that sort of prestige that accrues
from unconditional surrender to beat
EN- enemy or shameful flight from
retreating foe. The success of one
candidate Is a matter of history, and
the cause must forever remain one of
those supreme mysteries with which an
inscrutable Providence seems to de-
light in periodically tantalizing man
kind While the prestige of Grant is
logically absurd, that of Tilden is alb
surdly logical; there is no reason at all
for the che and for the other there is
reason, but it is bad. .fr3 s

Another Murder.

A telegram to the Oregonian, datet
Umatilla Landing, May 10th gives &
detailed account Of the shooting, neal
Heppner, of I d. French, by mar
named Murphy. The dispatch is al
follows: IS. $. Snyder owns a band
of sheep, and they are being hersled on
the hills about two miles south Of this
place. He employs a herder named
Murphy, who is camped short dis
lance above Mr.. T. ID. Frenchs field.
Yesterday Mr. Snyder was informed
that the herder was allowing the
sheep upon his (French's) premises and
into his grain field, and requested that
they be kept away. Mr.. Snyder en-
ployed young Anderson to go and see
Murphy about it. Accordingly, An
derson went up to see him yesterday
evening. Murphy had been drinking
and seemed enraged when Anderson
told his business. He said to Ander-
son, "did French tell Snyder that the
sheep were in his field" Snyder an
swered in the affirmative, and Murphy
replied, "Hs's a id iiar; I'll 60 and
kill him." at the same time going to
the tent and getting 44-caliber Rem
ington revolver. Anderson asked him
If he would do SO cowardly an act as
to kill = poor man with large family
without the least provicationY Murphy
replied, ''that would be cowardly."
Just then Mr.. French came walking
up whistling. When he was near,
said to him: "Did you tell Snyder
that his sheep were in your feldl
French replied, q did, Murphy re-
torted'@ angrily, at the same time
grasping him by the coat collar with
his left hand, and with his right hand
drawing his pistol and placing it near
ly against his temple, fred AS he
drew the pistol French said, 90, don't"
and fell forward almost into his MUIR
derers arms. Murphy, after walking
aroundsand surveying his victim, turn
ing to@aAnderson who stood near,
grasped his arm and said, "Now d--n
you, don't tell anyone but Snyder"
Anderson was terribly frightened, and
ran with all possible speed and was
nearly exhausted when he reached
town. A crowd Of citizens and ply
stefan Immediately repaired to the spot
They found Mr.. French standing up
and ascertained that he had walked
some distance from where he fell He
was talking and waving his hands,
perfectly unconscious Of what he was
doing. 1t was horrible sight-his
eyes almost burst from the sockets and
covered with dirt and blood, his hair
and beard stiff with CONCEALED blood,
and blood was streaming from his nose
and ears, covering his clothes. The
ball entered the left temple, and rang
ing downward, came out just below
the right cheek bone. Mr.. French
YVES good peaceable, law abiding citi-
zen, never quarrelled with anyone,
and the chances are that. Murphy will
