A GeOd Suggestion.

The number Of "insane" men on
the tramp about Washington and
elsewhere, is enormous and in
creasing daily. Sir Edward Thorn
ton, the British minister, makes a
good suggestion. lie reminds us
of the way the English have of
dealing with people who have a
mania of attempting the assassina-
tion of persons at the head of the
state. They conline such in prison,
and give them regular floggings.
1t is not improbable that the num-
ber of "insane" people at large
would he diminished rapidly by
this treatment. 1t is worthy of a
vigorous trial.

The track has been laid across

and is being laid up the north
bank of the river at the rate Of a
mile and a half a day. 1t will be
laid by the 18th Of July to Dayton.
The track on the Grange city
route will be laid as soon as the
track to Dayton is finished. The

In the Field.

AT last surveyors are in the field
on the proposed line of railway to
Astoria from the junction of the
Northern Pacific railroad route
from Portland to kalama. They
are following the river shore.
Judge Dean Blanchard, of Rainier,
who has given the route consider
able attention, says that by ex-
pending a nominal sum per mile, a
good carriage road might have
been built years ago. THE AsTo-
GIAN has frequently referred to
this fact. Since the Oregon Rail-
way and Navigation companys
operations from the Des Chutes to
the Cascades, along the Columbia,
nobody can any longer doubt their
ability TO construct a railway any
where. Just give Mr.. Thielsen
and Old Man Hallet soil or rocks
enough to lay a tie, and we assure
YOU they will build the road, with
Mr.. Willard to engineer the finan-
cial part of it. Before Astorians
awaken from their daze the loco
motive will be putting along our
water front, and our population
will be increased by thousands:
and wondering inquiry will be
made: Where do the people
come from" Let them come.

Notes on The Assassination.

On receipt of information from
the New Yorl, chamber of COM
merce that S250,000 was to be
presented to Mrs. Garfield, both as
a token of theIr sincere esteem
and sympathy and as a means of
relieving the mind Of the President
from anxiety entirely with regard
to the future of his family, Mrs.
Garfield remarked that there was
so much that was touching and
beautiful in the sympathy of the
people of the whole country that
she did not dare trust herself to
think of it.
DIR. Boynton will devote him
self to Mrs. Garfield, who, it is
feared, cannot stand the excite
ment much longer, although she
has borne up nobly.
1t turns out that the pistol
used by Guitteau was a cheap,
common weapon, self-cocker, and
as it was easy to shoot many won
der that he did not fire more shots.
The pistol was bought on the 9th
Of June for ten dollars.
\ cousin of Guitteau SAYS Cult
teau was always an expensive
luxury to the family. Charles
father favors hanging in case the
president dies. He has no sympa-
thy with the atrocious criminal.
1t is stated that all clues as to
accomphces have proven futile.
The records show that 90 men
wounded like the president re-
covered during the war, the cases
being all treated in hospitals OF
the union army. Some cases were
the exact counterpart of the presi-
dents, one being soldier in Gar
fields regiment.
Brooks, who intimated he would
shoot Arthur if nobody else did,
will be released when he sobers
up. He was a war department
clerk who had been on a drunk.

- The time mas long since passed
when mechanical trades provided our
SONS witha living. Labor-saving ma
chinery. patent tools and steam have
robbed the trade Of the future il offered
TO our boys i'm the days of the indentured

professional men, and merchandising is
a failure, il the number Of bankrupt
merchants who had TO succumb TO the
pressure of the times can be taken as a
criterion. What the country needs is pro-

Assassination of Rulers.

The assassination Of President
Garfield brings up the list of as
sassinations, and attempts at such,
of the crowned heads and rulers of
the different countries of the world,
from the earliest historical records
down to the present time, to thirty
four. The word is of Moham-
medan origin. Assassins or its
ancient equivalent, Assassinians,
were originally a band of fanatical
Mohammedans, collected together
bv one Of their number named
Hassan. They settled in Persia
about 1000. In Syria they pos
sessed large tracts of land in the
mountains of Lebanon. They were
extirpated in Persia about 1858,
and in Syria about 1872. The
chief of the band was named An
cient of the Mountain. or Old Man
of the Mountain. They trained
mp young people TO assassinate
such persons as their chief had
devoted TO destruction. Among
those they murdered were Louis
of Bavaria in 1913, and the Khan
of Tartary in 1854. Out of the
total number of crowned heads
and rulers against whom attempts
have been made, twenty-three
proved fatal, including President
LINCOLN; only ten escaping from
being mortally wounded. The
first account we have in history
of these murders is that of
/ Artascersces the third Of Persia by
Bagaos in 33S &c. Two years
later Philip the second of Mace
don was killed by Pausanias, and
six years later another Persian,
King Darius the third, fell by the
knife of Bessus. From that time
until Julius Caesar was assassi-
mated by Brutus, in A b. g, none
took place as recorded. Within
the present century attempts have
been made against the lives of six
teen crowned heads and rulers, six
of which proved fatal. Paul first
of Russia was the first to fall in
1901. Then came Ferdinand,
Duke or Parma in 1854. Daniel,
Prince of Montenegro in 1860.
President LINCOLN, 1865. Michael,
Prince Of Servian 1868, and Alex
ander of Russia i'm the present
yeaI, 1881. The unsuccessful at
tempts made were against Arma-
deus, while king of Spain, Francis
Joseph of Austria, Frederick Will
liam the fourth Of Prussia, George
the fourth of England while re-
gent, Isabella the second of Spain,
William Frederick the present
emperor of Germany, Alphonse,
present king of Spain, and the
king of Italy. Besides these, six
different attempts at different pc
riods were made against the life
of Louis PHILIPPE of France, and
four attempts against Napoleon
the third, late emperor of the
French. Three attempts have been
made against the present en-
peror of Germany. Numerous
attempts have also been made
against different prominent states
men, notably against Prince Bis
marck.

MONTGOMERY, La, May 25, 1881.
Editor Colfax Chronicle:
While other States, and even some
of the parishes of our own State, are
agitating the question of prohibit
ory law, / have never seen any men
ton made of such things in the
CHRoNIcLE. Facts and figures are
being published, which show that
great good is being accomplished In
other parts OF our country. Cannot
we too secure share of the bles-
sings that would ensue from pre-
hibitory law. 1 am opposed to COM
munities, wards, or parishes, acting in
the matter; as singly they only re-
move the trouble from their doors;
but a State law would save our pee
pie large sums of money, which
they need for better purposes, doing
away with an expensive article OF
consumption, not necessary to our
health or interests, and that makes
paupers and fills jails and peuiten-
tiaries. need not call attention to
the fact that large per cent of
crime is directly chargeable to liquor;
that you all know. / do not seek to
deprive the medical profession OF its
use as medicine, but believe that
MANY good men would entirely alb
stain if the article was not 30 plenti-
full. OF course we would still have
drunkards, who would get liquor
somehow. It would be struggled
and disposed of at night, drank in
secret, and sometimes we would have
to put up with a drunken customer,
but we would feel that we had done
our duty to ourselves and our chill.
