We wOuH cdH special attention to
the following newspaper reports Of
the so-called IVestmdn's Great East
erW Circus which will appear here on
Monday, August 7th;
From the oregon Register, Lafayette,
oregon, Jaly 2Sth, 1882:
How They TOOK. -Westman's Circus
did not take very well with our people,
but we learn from Mr.. Olds that some of
the actors took such things as they could
get hold of about his hotel Mrs. HOWE
and Miss Josie Parker lost some articles
of jewelry and other articles of value,
which We're found in the possession Of
some of the performers. Other things
were missed which have not been recov-
cred. The Manager, however, showed Il
disposition to assist in the recovery of
the stolen articles. From these circum-
stances and the fact that the performance
was very light affair, our people have Il
very poor opinion of the circus

daH JHly 29th, 1852:
The Circus - lSherman's EdUcated
Horses and Family Circus give two more
performances this afternoon and eve
ming and leave for the Inland Empire
on Monday. 1t may be well enough to
state for the benefit of readers in Eastern
oregon and Washington, that this excel
lent show has no connection with the al
legged circus which has been travelling
through the Willamette Valley, and re-
ceived the hearty disapproval OF every
newspaper in the towns where it spread
its canvas.

APPROACHING
The End. The Evidence all Taken In
the Guiteau Case, and Argument {
Commenced.
THIRTY-NINTH DAY.

At the opening Of the case this
morning the Judge told the jury thai
they might be excused for the day but
they all preferred to remain and listen
to the arguments. Davidge opened
with a speech on legal points, com.
manding the closest attention.
The prisoner assured the counsel
that he would not take part to-day
but would insist in making any COM
ments he deemed necessary to set them
right on either side. AS the arguments
began Guiteau pretended to read a let
ter, but followed Davidge with the clos
est attention the few Interruptions he
made were unnoticed by the counsel.
When Guiteau called out 'I didn't
know the difference between right and
wrong, if [ had I would not have done
it !" To this Davidge said, 1--WE will
come to that by and by"
The first sensation of the day was
caused by the reading of Judge Davis,
Of New York, the charge to the jury in
the Coleman murder case.
Judge Porter relieved Davidge, and
read from newspaper slips.
Scoville, with impatience, objected to
any more such dramatic efforts on the
part of Judge Porter, intended for eff
tect on the jury, and insisted that he
(Porter) might as well read stump
speech. That he Porter knew that it
had no bearing on the case.
''Of course he knows it," shouted
Guiteau, sit is directly against the
charge of the court"
Judge Porter repelled the intima-
ton, and insisted that this farce which
had so long been enacted by the coun-
sci for the defense must now stop. If
not rebuked by the court it would be
by others.
Judge Cox eluded dispute by saying
the matter read was undoubted author
ity. Its applicability to the case could
be commented upon by the counsel at
the proper time.
AS Davidge resumed, Guiteau again
shouted: 'I want to get this thing right
before the jury. Everyone'know all
about that Coleman case. The jury
gave verdict against the charge, and
this prosecution knows it we'll"
The effect was electrical, when Da-
VldgG, IN q deliberate tone said: Your
honor, this man for three weeks was
held up to us as an imbecile, and now
listen to him. He not only knows the
difference between right and wrong but
understands the law Of the case"
Guiteau -Transtory mania, that is
my case. don't pretend l am insane
now. [ have got as good a head as
you or Scoville. He is fool, though
[ repudiated him. All I want is two
hours before the jury and [ can settle
this thing all right.
The scene was lively for few min
utes. lodge Cox raped for order and
Guiteau was forced to sit down, and
DaVidge confined to theend Of his az
guments without further interruption
from Guiteau.

PRESIDENT ARTHUR intends 10 send 10
congress a special message calling atten-
tIon to the necessity for immediate legis-
lation for the suppression of smallpox.
PRESIDENT ARTHUR has nominated
Samuel G.. Parks, of New Mexico, to be

EHE secretary of the interior has in
structed Indian agents that they have
power to put intruders off reservations.
and may call out troops to aid in enforcing

criminals who have escaDcd from state
or territory.
1T has just been learned at Washington
that for five months prior to his death at
Santiago, Minister Fitzpatrick had suffered
intensely from Bright's disease of the kid
neys. On the day of his demise he vainly
endeayored to dictate dispatches to the
state department. An app cal to congress
to provide means to bring home his body
will doubtless be made.
FITz JOHN PORTER has sent to Senator
SeweIl an appeal to President Arthur, ac-
companied by letter from Gen. Grant.
Porter asks that he be nominated to the
senate for restoration to his rank in the
army. General Grant states that he is
now convinced that Mr. Porter rendered
faithful, efficient and intelligent service,
and asks the president to lay the whole
matter before the encouragement for his
opinion.

very strong against him, and the pressure
of public opinion being irresistible. John
further expressed the opinion that the
prisoner Is an idiot, born without ordi-
nary common sense.
