WELCOMED BACK.
A Constable With a Warrant Greets
Bryan. the Fleet-Footed Athlete.

Yesterday there arrived in the city w.
G. Bryan, an athlete, who as a runner
and a base ballist gained plenty of
friends and admirers here a season or SO
ago. Yesterday he arrived in the city,
and while being greeted by his friends
Officer Rosecrans stepped up to him and
gave him a cordial invitation to appear
before Justice Abbott. where he found q
charge lodged against him of %defrauding
the Pacific hotel out of a bill of about
500. 1t appears that Bryan, as mana
ger for some base ball clubs, had them
stop at the Pacific, and it is claimed that
he was security for the unpaid bill, and
liable under the hotel act. His bonds
were fixed at 5000, and he went out to
get signers, and will have a hearing at a
late date.

Vaughan surprised all by his fleet
footed race. While the democrats cut
him some, republicans cut Flickinger
still worse. In the Third ward there
we're over 100 republicans who slaugh-
tered tho man they had chosen in con.
~vention as the head of their ticket, and
placed Vsughan's name in his stead.
Charles Harle surprised even his friends
by his run, although he did not get there,
he showed much strength. S~iedentopi
is reelected to the council by a small
majority, but it is enough so long as Pet.
tibone is defeated, for Of the two Sieden.
topf is far preferable. He and Conover
are the only republicans elected,
it being a clean sweep for the
democrats. The democrats are in a queer
sort of a box, too. though victorious.
Before the convention they promised to
vote for anybody to beat Vaughan, and
he has been fought bitterly by them in
times past, but now he seems to have not
only whipped them into line, but has
won for them a victory which probably
no other man in his party could have
gained under the circumstances, for the
republican nominee is q man who stands
high every way, and is of ster,
ling worth and unsullied record.

MAIN STREET BRIDGE.
In Yesterdays Test II Bears Up Thirty
Tons Without Feeling II.
The New Structure open tor Travel

Yesterday forenoon thenewiron bridge
across Main street was duly tested in the
presence of Mayor Bowman, the county
board of supervisors, and several citizens.
The city officials, with the exception Of
the mayor, were conspicuous by their
absence, but, like most of the citizens,
they felt that there was little need of
testing any bridge built by Raymond &
Campbell, whose reputation as contrac-
tors is firmly established throughout the
country. As a test for the strength of
the bridge, wagons loaded with dirt were
hauled upon it, the horses detached, and
the wagons run snug together until thir.
teen of them were in place. Each Of
the wagons thus loaded weighed 1900
pounds, 80 that the total weight
was nearly thirty tons, including
the horses, the men and the heavy
body known as the county board. The
DETECTION of the bridge was less than {
quarter of an inch. This new bridge i,
the handsomest bridge in the city. 1t il
an iron structure 100 feet in length, with
an eighteen foot roadway and two 81,
foot sidewalks. 1t cost $4,000, and it
estimated strength is one ton to the foot
or in all about 100 tons. 1t seems higl
enough to allow ever flood waters t.
pass through, but it appears that the ole
foot-bridges and other obstruction
should be cleared out at once, lest the.
BIO swept away and lodged 80 as to d.
damage. The city is to be congratulated
on having such a bridge at Main street
built by it's home men.

Read and Act.

The work of the Home of the Friend
less is growing into one of more and
more Importance to u city and state.
A few days since Mrs. Miller, the wife
of 'Sport" Miller died, leaving four
worse than orphaned children. Homes
were found for two of them and two
have been taken to the Home of the
Friendles. But yesterday Mr.. Fred
Fird found a Danish boy, who was left
by a heartless man who had brought him
to this country, promising to care for him.
The boy was sleeping in sheds and get
ting a bite to eat wherever he could. The
finger of Que hand was badly frozen, his
eyes swollen and all together he present
cd a pitiable appearance. Mr.. Fird took
the lad, who is about Ii years of age, to
the manager of the home who received
him and the boy will now be cared for
and sent to school, until such
time as a good home can
be security for him. There are now
twenty-fou at the home-alI children,
save three women. One of these is very
sick, the N the Episcopal ladies took to
the home and for whom they are caring,
in true Christian charity.
1t takes a vast amount to clothe and
feed such a family. The funds of the
institution are getting low, and all who
desire to aid in this Christian work, ore
requested to send to the home, clothing,
old or new, flour, groceries and cash.
Let the contributions come in at once,
and at a liberal rate. In no other way
can this large family be provided for. II
is for all. Let all join together and de,
light in the work.

borrow at Glenwood for several days
past. 1t will be remembered that he was
last year arrested in Colorado for the
murder of two contractors near Pacific
Junction in 1873. He was tried last fall

attorney, got him a new trial, which
came to a close yesterday morning by the
jury finding him again guilty, and fixing

The Portland daily press., 1884-03-17

The Dynamite Monthly is a new monthly
paper issued from II Chambers street, New
York, published by Thomas j. Ford and
edited by Patrick Rellihan. The paper
frankly declares that it believes in dynamite,
and "not only in dynamite, but in the more
simple sulphur match, and, shocking though
it seems to be to the superficial thinker, in
the bullet, whether from within or without
the ditch and in the knife at close
quarters" On the first page is receipt for
making dynamite, and black list, which
contains the names of persons that have
made themselves particularly obnoxious TO
all true Irishmen." Following the list is a
paragraph in which the readers of the paper
are adjured not to "forget Judge Lawson
and the infamous Clifford Lloyd and VIM.
E. Foster, who escaped for time the judg-
ment upon him. Given that grand old
man Gladstone may be included" says the
editor in conclusion. The aim of the paper
is to incite to assassination. The respect
able Irish-Amercans ought to see to 1t that
its career is short. If such paper should
be supported by Irishmen, their race and
their cause would become Infamous.

The civil servioa reform.

We do not understand why there should
be any objection on the part of the Civil
Service Commission to the publicat.o ON of the
full reports of collectors and postmasters
throughout the country, in whose offices the
new civil service regulations have been in
operation. What these officials have to saw
OF their experience is as much to the point
as what the members of the cabinet have to
say, although of course there are more per-
sons affected by the operation of the new
rules in the departments at Washington than
In any other place. We hope that the rea-
son is not because the reports from places
outside of Washington are not as favorable
as those which the commission reported to
Congress for publication. We do not un-
derstand that these reports were in any
sense confidential, but that they were official
reports which the commission was at liberty
to make public at discretion 1t will be a
great mistake to suppress the unfavorable
reports (if there are any, while publishing
the favorable ones.
Elsewhere we print what our Washington
correspondent has been able to obtain, after
repeated application, concerning the report
OF the Collector of Portland. It appears
that the Collector does not think the law
has been long enough in operation here 70
afford very just test Of It's effects There
has been but one appointment to the perm
anent, or regular, force under the new rules.
1t must be that in Boston, New York, Phila-
delphia and other places many more appoint
ments have been made, and we should like
to know what the officials in charge have to
say concerning their character Until We
received our correspondents letter we had
supposed that the report of the Commission
to Congress embraced all these reports to
the Commission; but it appears that it does
not. 1t seems to us that the public is en-
titled to have them, unless we are mistaken
in supposing that they were not made as
confidential communications.
The Portland daily press., 1884-03-17

Mr.. Phillips, the Boston man who Is pnr-
suing the apothecaries, has probably taken
his cue from the Hallowell lawyer who re-
Gently brought suits against several manu-
featuring companies to recover the penalty
for noncompliance with the law in regard to
making annual returns to the Secretary OF
State. 1t is hardly possible that Mr.. Phil
lips, who is citizen of Massachusetts,, is so
anxious, lest the lives of the people of Maine
be put in jeopardy by incompetent drug
gists, that he has undertaken this crusade
out of regard for their welfare. What he is
doing, he probably does from no nobler pur
pose than to put money ia bis own pocket.
The law of 1877 under which Mr.. Phil
lips brings his suits, was designed to prevent
persons who are igporant of the nature and
properties of drugs from compromising and
selling them to the public, and in its main
features it is doubtless judicious measure.
But the provision for compelling obedience
to it is of the nature of trap for the I'M
wary. Every druggist violating the law is
liable to fine of $50 week for every week
that he continues in business without regis
tration, and this money goes to the in
former.
This is equivalent to saying to person
who is cognizant of the violation of the
law, "Do not be in hurry about exposing
it, the longer it goes on the more money you
will eventually get. Let the fine of $50 a
week accumulate until it amounts to as
large sum as can possibly be got out of the
delinquent and then pounee upon him and
bring your suit"
The violations of the law, assuming them
to be such), of which Mr.. Phillips COM
plains, have been going on for years. Per-
haps Mr.. Phillips has but recently detected
them. But if he had detected them years
ago under the inducement which this law
holds out to keep quiet and let them con-
tfhue it is not likely that he would have ex-
posed them much sooner. In point OF fact
the law offers premium to person aware
of its violation to let the violation continue,
instead of correcting and preventing it, and
thus ii defeats its own purpose. 1t is not easy
TO conceive WHY any Legislature should
sanction provision SO stupid.

Representative Dingey's report on the
subject of free ships to which we give space
in another part of this paper is strong and
reasonable document. On this subject he
has such thorough knowledge and such clear
ness and soundness of judgment that what
ever he says is Illuminating. There is
nothing hazy or uncertain about his treat
ment of the matter. He understands the
questions at issue and he has very definite
views about the proper and adequate reme-
dies for the unfortunate condition of the
ship-building industry in this country. The
Democratic party does not propose any plan
for restoring this industry to prosperity. Its
free-ship doctrine is like its other free-trade
doctrines calculated to ruin whatever indus
tries exist. The Democratic idea is that we
do not want shipyards, or cotton factories,
or iron works or machine shops in this
country; but that it is the truest patriotism
to open our marker to the killing competition
of European manufacturers, who have a
confidence they sometimes do not hesitate to
boast of, that they can shut up our mills
and shops in short time.

Tie report of the committee which has
been investigating the various departments
OF the local government of New York will
not startle the citizens of the metropolis.
They had no doubt before that they were
Systematically robbed by their public SER
wants. There may have been some curios-
ity on their part to know approximately
how much they were plundered, and this
curiosity the report of the committee will in
measure satisfy.

If it is worth while to say anything further
concerning the Lasker resolution perhaps
what the committee on foreign affairs pro-
poses is as good as anything that can be
said. But the Secretary of State said all
that was necessary.
