THE REAL ca USE or THE ORE
GONIAES ANTICS.

The Portland Oregonian in several issues
during the last few weeks has been attack
ing the Oregon Pacific Railroad and Messrs.
Wallis Nash and Col. Hoeg, and in man
ner by which it pretends to unearth some
great and important things to is readers.
The real cause of these uncailed for attacks
and falsiications made ag inst these gentle
men and the railroad which they are build
ing is truly laughable to those who under
stand the situation. The reason which
prompts the Oregonian to devote SO much
space anG attention to that subject are
found in the book lately written by Wallis
passage alluded to is recognized by every
reader of the Orsyon;an to be so literally
true that it cannot be successfully disputed
in any particular. 1t reads as follows:
The Oregoniam IS the only journal il,
the State giving the latest kilograms. Nat
urally it is published in Portland, and de-
voted mainly to the interests of that city.
II is connected with the Assoeiated Press,
and possesses the practical monopoly OF the
supply Of news, tproperly so called. Pro
Tossing to be Republican in politics, Ii
assumes the liberty of advocating doctrines
and supporting candidates for office in direct

the party and the wishes Of the party man
ayers. With a parade OF fairness and
Willingness to admit to its columns views
and communications opposing the ideas it
may be advocating at the time, it takes
care ttr color matters in such form as to
prevent or weaken al opposing or criticising
matter. It is bitterly hostile to every
movement in the Willamette valley tend
ing toward independence of Fortland's
money power AMI influence. While profess
ing to desire the development of the State,
it reads that to mean solely the aggrandize-
ment of Portland. 1t enjoys happy facil
ity of conversion, and will unblushingly adj
vocate to-day the adoption of measures it
denounced last week. Unreliable in every
thing except it's telegraphic news, and
oftentimes seeking to color them by sug-
gestive head-notes and capital announce
ments. it Is a calamity to the state that

unpopular at home and the most misleading

In the star route trial at Washing
ton, Sept. Z, Judge Wylie said it had come
to his ears that members of the jury had
been approached in the most disgraceful
way in attempts to influence their action.
He had first heard Of it about a week ago.
when he had received the most direct and
positive information of this character.
He had then advised the jurymen to say
nothing about it, as he did not wish to stop
the progress of the case. Within the past
twenty hours, however, these wolves that
surrounded the jury had become fiercer and
bolder, and, upon hearing Of one attempt
more brazen and villainous than the others,
he had felt such Indignation that he had
nearly advised the juror to shoot down such
q man on the spot. He now adjHred the
jurymen to spurn such men with the toe OF
their boot: to turn from them with Ecorn.

bishop Cain's Case.

The case of Bishop Cain against the Calves
ton, Harrisburg & San Antonio railroad came
up before Judge Turner this morning. 1t will
be remembered that Bishop Cain and his wife
were travelling from Galveston to San Anto-
MO, holding first-class tickets. At Houston
they changed cars and the conductor then re-
fused to allow them to enter the ladies' car.
Bishop Cain then paid an extra charge of
81 SO for the sleeper, and claimed ST., 900 as
damages for exclusion from the car aforesaid.
Under the pleadings in the case Judge Tur-
ner held that the plaintiff could only recover
the extra expense he had been put to in tax
ing the sleeper, and the jury under his direc-
ton returned verdict for So. SO and costs,
no witnesses being called on either side.
Mr.. Brenneman, on behalf of Bishop Cain,
gave notice of his intention to have the Judges
decision reviewed by the supreme court of the
United States.
