A RAILROAD ABANDONED.
The Rolling Stock Withdrawn From the Puget
Sound Line.

PORTLAND, Aug. 21.-Orders were re-
ceived to-day from President Harris, OF the
Northern Pacific, to withdraw the company g
rolling stock on the branch from Tacoma to
Seattle. This was done, and the road Is
now temporarily abandoned. 1t has been in
operation since July last, and did a nice
freight business, because 1t saved one trans
fer, but the bulk of the passenger traffic went
by boat between Tacoma and Seattle. The
northern half of the line between Tacoma
and Seattle Is owned by the Puget Sound
Shore railroad, which is closely identified
with the Oregon improvement Co., and the
southern half Is owned by the Northern Pa
cific. The Puget Sound Shore road Is con-
trolled by the Oregon Transcontinental Co.,
which, OF course, has no money, and could
not supply the rolling stock, so the North
ern Pacific temporarily leased them rolling
stock.
Two reasons are surmisad for to-day's Or
der: One is that the Puget Sound Shore
road Is trying to secure the transportation Of
the hop crop vf Puyallup valley, via Seattle
10 San Francisco, while the Northern Pacific
wants to haul the hops East by rail; another
Is that the Northern Pacific wants TO depre-
ciste the Seattle end of the road, so they
can buy 1t cheap. Evidently the Northern
Pacific does not want another railroad, and
one only thirty miles long, to have q voice
In their Puget Sound terminus. The pres
ent outlook Is that Seattle will be without .
railroad connection with Oregon and the
East for some time.

Calling on Cleveland to Resign.


New YORK, August 2l.-The Sun this
morning, under the head of "The Religious
Conscience Of the Country" calls on Mr..
Cleveland to withdraw as q candidate for
ing religious organs, Protestant and Catholic,
which it says constitute the most note worthy
feature in this unprecedented canvass.
This weeks Independent says: "We were
ready with real enthusiasm to support the
tried, and, as we believed, the honest re-
former, Grover Cleveland. Now without
one word In derogation of his record as Gov
ernor Of this State, our enthusiasm is entire
ly wiped out by the discovery and ackpowI-
edgement of horrible facts"
The Congregationalist says: "If 1t were
true that Cleveland could be shown to have
abandoned his evil ways seven or eight years
ago, and to have lived since, and to be living
Ing at present, an upright life, very many
people would refuse to bring up the dark
fact In bis history against him now, but leav-
Ing out the Buffalo Telegraph and Rev. Mr..
Balls charges, we are constantly receiving
new evidence in the matter more emphatic
In its condemnation of Cleveland. The
party which nominated Gov. Cleveland
should demand that be be withdrawn from
the ticket which his name now leads" The
Universe of Cleveland, the Chicago Advanes,
St. Mays Institute Journal, Catholic, are
quoted to the same effect; also the Christian
Union, Zion's Herald, the Morning Star, .
Baptist paper, each calling for Cleveland's
retirement.

won,t vot. -. t-,.v.,.na

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Quite furry Of
excitement was created In political circles
BY the withdrawal yesterday OF Edward r.
Mcdonald, one Of New Jerseys Dem ,ctal c
candidates for Presidential elector. When
the State Convention was In session at Tren-
ton few days ago and the subject Of eIector
for the Seventh district came up, there was
scene Of such confusion aud uproar that the
President General McClellan) could not
make himself heard or restore order. The
row was occasioned by torrent Of words
between the friends Of Mcdonald and an ex.
Confederate officer, Col. McInery, who was
also candidate. Al last the qsarel was
smoo.hed over and Mcdonald n, min tied
amid great cheering and sort Of love feast.
Now Mcdonald declines, declaring be 10 for
Butler, and proposes TO take of bis coat for
him. The Democrats tried to placate him,
and arg red with him, but III to no
purpose. He said II his name 10 kept there
and he Il elected he will not vote for Cleve-
land in any event.

Six Bodies Mutilated.

NEW YORK, August 2I.-The Secretary Of
the Navy and the Secretary of War have
been In consultation to-day at the Navy
Yard, Brooklyn, with Commander Schley,
concerning the Greedy relief expedition.
From them the following statement relative
to the recent reports of the treatment of
bodies Of the dead Of the Greedy expedition
Is derived: From revelations made BY ex-
posing some Of the bodies, differences have
been drawn that incisions have been made
In oil the bodies, and that portions of the
iesh have been either used for food or for
bait for catching shrimps. The following
authentic extract from Commander Schley's
report, nov being prepared for the Secretary
Of the Navy, shows . portion Of the remains
TO have been 90 treated; but that those Of
Lieut.. Lockwood, Sergeants Israel, Linn,
Cross, and Private Schneider, and the Eski-
mo Christisnson, were absolutely untouched.
Extract: ain preparing the bodies Of the
dead for transport alton at St. Johns, IL was
found that the bodies Of six of them (Lieut.
Kislingbury, Sergeants jewell and Ralston,
and Privates Whistler. Ellis and Henry) had
been cut and the Heshy parts removed to .
greater or less extent. All the other bodies
were intact"

ALMOST every week develops something
emphasizing the righteousness Of the method
pervading our laws Of making written aud
posted notices a legal publication. IL Is
time TO eradicate this humbugLery from our
laws. The proper way TO give public no.
tice Is TO publish It In q newspaper, one or
more Of which Is published and circulates in
every county. There 10 no use IN the press
being over sensitive about calling attention
TO this absurdity because The more rational
method Of publication would benefit them.
II Is q relic of the age before newspapers had
become the medium of intelligence to all In
tellIgeut people, and were few and far be-
tween. The press should unite In impress.
ing upon our Legislators that an amendment
OF the laws should be made requiring the
publication of all legal notices to the public
to be published In newspaper. II would
accomplish the object Of the notice, which
posting does not, and should be made uni
yersal. When rational people desire TO give
a notice that shall reach the public they
publish 10 In newspaper; but the laws Of
the land permit many such notices to be
written and stuck up where few see and less
read them. II is time for change.

POLITICAL POINTS.

Oregon politics are to be complicated by
Butlerism.
Gov. Cleveland is trying to nd out whether
he had rather be Rugged to death by North
Woods bear or have his letter of acceptance
torn to pieces by Butler.-N. y. Mail and Er-
press, Rep.
Emery A. Storrs has been struck by the
disproportionately large size of Clevelands
neck as compared with his head. He says
che wears q 1874 collar and No. z hat, and Is
bachelor on the European plan. "-Ntt'oau-
kee Sentinel, Rep.
The Knights of Labor and the State Trades
Assembly of New York represent some 100,-
600 organized voters. The above named or
ganization Is against Cleveland almost TO a
man for his vetoes of acts specially asked for
by workingmen.
"Mr. Blaine Is the candidate of the worst
elements of the Republican party" say the
Independents. The worst elements, there
fore, embrace Judge 4. k. Hoar, w. NJ. Ev-
arts, John g. Whittier. J. II Hawley, John
Sherman, George +. Edmunds, George +.
Hoar, etc. These and such az these are the
"riff raft" with whom the reformars are too
good to associate.-Utica Herald, Rep.
Mr.. Cleveland's stock of thought appears
to include about three ideas, intrinsically
good, but monotonous and poverty-stricken
when turned over and over by themselves
alone. Ignorant of history as of.public and
private life, except in the narrowest sense
and in the lowest range of intellectually
careful of himself and of his own selfish am
billions and purposes, he suggests no parallel
that can establish any resemblance with the
candidate whom the Democracy elected
eight years ago; and from this fact let Mr.
Schurz aud bis friends draw all the comfort
they CAM. Y. Sun, Dem.

Water on Our Wheel.

NEW YORK, August PA Washington
special to the Sun says: Ths effect of the war
between China and France will, it is believed
here operate greatly to the advantage of the
United States, through an almost immediate
increase Of trade between this country ana
China. The demand for all kinds of manu-
featured goods heretofore supplied China
through French agencies, will naturally he
largely transferred to this country. The
Chinese government, which possesses large,
powerful navy, will undoubtedly prohibit
the importation of all French goods, and its
ports will be closed agains, French CON-
merce. Not only will the Chinese need mu-
nitions Of war, but also commssary aud
quartermaster supplies, which can be trans
ported from New York to San Francisco,
thence to China over steamship lines, the
traffic over which has perceptibly increased
since the agitation of the Franco Chinese
trouble. China will continue to purchase Of
England IS long as trade Is untrammeled but
the natural highway Of her trade is by the
way OF San Francisco.

IT Is stated that Mr.. S. Ii. II. Clark, Gen.
eral Manager Of the Union Pacific Railway
Company, will retire from that position Sep.
tember LIST and be succeeded by Mr.. Galloway
who now holds near position TO him and
is a very competent man. The retirement
of Mr.. Clark loses to the Company one
whose place cannot easily be filed. He is
the one eminent business head of the Com
psny to whom for years has come all the
hard problems, outside of fnancieriDg, for
solution and he has managed them most sue
cessfully. Whenever things got inextr!cable
for others, Clark was called to strsighten

lie has been in bad health and it Is presumed
his retirement is to permit repose aud resto-
ration which We trust may be speedy and
permanent.

ELECTION OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATOR

Heretofore Public Administrators In the
several counties have been appointed BY the
Probate Judges. In some instances tho po-
sition of Administrator has paid better than
the Judgeship and the system has not proven
satisfactory In many cases. Therefore, at
the last Legislative session, q law was en-
acted the main points Of which were Is fol-
lows:
SEC. |. At the November election 1884,
and each alternate year thereafter, Public
Administrator shall be elected In each coun-
~; his term TO begin on the first Monday Of
ID ccmber following and continue two years,
or until his successor Is elected and qualified.
SEC. 2. The duties and fees remain the
ssne as at present.
SEC 8. He shall take the oath and give
bond to the Territory, with two sureties, In
the sum Of $4,000.
SEc. 4. The Probate Judge may require
the Administrator 10 give such additional
b ,nds as nav be necessary TO secure the In
t@resis Of estates, but not TO exceed the
amount required by law Of Administrators.
SEC o. On failure to give bond the office
shall be vacant, and, upon that or 70 . cy
occurring from any cause, the Probate Judge
shall appoint.
Undrrihi Law, county conventions should
make nominations for Public Administrators
in addition TO the officers already on the
list.

rHERAILRoADsAND CATTLE KILLING

We mentioned two weeks since the killing
of cattle on the Northern Pacific Railway,
the refusal of the company to pay for
such cattle, and the adyisabili,y Of making .
test case In court to determine whether the
railroad company or the stock owners have
to bear the losses. There is statute law Of
Montana making railroad companies liable
for stock killed by their trains, fixing the
value of the same, and providing the meth
DDS Of identifying and proving up such losses.
This law the N. p. r. r. Co. ignores, alleg-
ing It is In conflict with the prior aud supe-
rior act Of Congress giving that company
four hundred feet right Of way through the
Territory for the purpose Of operating rail-
road. The company goes even SO far As to
allege that the owner Of the stock might be
held for any damages sccruing TO said rail-
road company from such stock derailing or
otherwise interfering with their rolling stock
10 properly operating the road. We believe
the U. P. charter Is similar to the n. p.
charter, and the former company has abided
by the Montana law; but the n. p. Co. re-
fuses and contests. The issue at law will be
whether Montana had the right TO enact and
enforce the stock killing law now on its
books, aud this was the issue we desired 70
see raised by the test case. j. G. Robinson,
E-q., row informs us that such u case reached
the Supreme Court at Its recent session; that
the railroad company was represented BY
W. Z. Cullen, ESQ.,, but that the stock owner
was not represented by attorney. Mr.. Rob-
insou having a similar case, which had not
yet reached the Supreme Court, thereupon
fled brief in the case at issue, AMI 1t Is ex-
p:c.ed to come up for determination at the
January term. If decided against the rail-
road company 1t will doubtless be appealed
to lie Supreme Court Of the United States
aud iual determination deferred as long as
possible. We regard the position Of the
railroad company as untenable, but 1t is the
one 1t has taken, and there is no recourse
but to contest 1t through the courts. The
determination of one case will determine all
Others of like nature and the one referred to
will be watched with much interest by stock
men. II the RAILROAD company is sustained
it will fall upon stock owners TO prove neg
ligence or carelessness on the part Of opera
tives of the company before they can recover
damages, and that will be almost an impos-
sbiiity. If the law is sustained the railroad
company will be liable for damages under it.
The present condition of affairs Is resulting
i'll the sale of stock ranches adjacent to the
railroad and removal Of stock to other
ranges.

Northern Pacific Changes.

NEW YORK, August 2s.-The Times St.
Paul special says: Rumors which have been
current for several days past concerning the
retirement of Vice. President Cakes from the
Northern Pacific, and his acceptance Of the
position Of general manager of the Union
Pacific system are not wholly baseless.
Cakes himself, 1t is true, deLi.s the Union
Pacific part Of the story, but quite naturally
says nothing As to his relations with the
Northern Pacific Company. The fact is,
however, for some time past 1t has been the
pretty generally accepted belief among we'll
posted railroad men In this vicinity that
President Harris contemplated some consid-
cradle changes In the management Of the
road, and that Cakes would be among the
earliest departures.
