Extensive Forgeiies

PORTLAND. Ogn.. November l2.-Ex-
tensive forgeries on the Oregon Bank
came to light here to-day. Two forged
checks. each for So, 600. on the First
National Bank of PendIeton, Oregon.
purDorted to be signed by Lehman &
Blum, well-kDown merchants, were
cashed by the Pacific Bank OF San
Francisco. One was endorsed by J. ".
Smith and the other by the Union Con-
tract Company and Calvin Pratt. An
other check for SIS. 900, on the Portland
Savings Bank, with r. NJ Steele's sig
nature forged to it, and a cashiers GER
ti6cate, also forged, was received to-day
for collection from the Pacific Bank OF
San Francisco, who had cashed it. Cal
vim Pratt was formerly an engineer en-
ployed by the Oregon Railroad &
Navigation Company on construction
Nothing Is known of the Union Con
tract company and J. W. Smith. 1t is
believed that some of the forged paper
has reached New York, as inquiries have
come from the Second National Bank
OF that city which indicate that the
name of Frank Dekum, president OF the
Portland Savings Bank, is being used
In connection with the fOrgeries.

dates when al the party candidates OPP
pose the tariff reform, preparing for
that step by diffusing sound economical
literature ard promoting organization,
especially IN close Congressional dis
tricts.
A minority report was submitted by
Mr.. HSrpOle. OF Kansas, demanding
the immediate reduction of all protec
tive tariff to a purely revenue basis:
SecOnd-That we believe all indirect
taxation should eventually be abol-
lshed that the expense of the govern
ment shonld be borne by property in
stead of individuals.
The majority report, as finally
adopted, shows the sense of the con-
yention.
The announcement that Henry
Ward Beecher would speak in the even
ing, attracted an audience that packed
the Central Music Hall to its fullest
capacity. Previous to Beecher's az
pearance, David A. Wells, president Of
the Free Trade League. delivered an ac-
dress, the principal point of which was
that the tariff on wool makes wooden
goods so dear that it has ruined the
demand for American wool, an article
which, as q rule, can only be used IN
connection with foreign grown.
Beecher was greeted with enthusiast c
applause He declared himself in favor
of a no-tariff -at-all. Protection was the
Juggling OF the devil. If the
politicians were statesmen. protection
would die a natural death in spite of
the devil, but the politicians were not
statesmen they were 'vote-mongers-"
There is no tariff on men, said the
speaker He wondered ii the proteo-
tionlsts were thinking of lettering the
situation by placinga tariff on imported
pauper labor This country was non
exporting and yet it was a large ex.
porter, too, of religion" we Sc t
millions to heather countries to instil
Christianity, while the article went
begging at home, and when individuals
from those benighted countries came to
our shores to be nearer the fountain
head we meet them with curses and
stones. The audience was listening
with the most strained attention. when
the speaker in closing paid tribute to
the liberty that had founded the gov
ernment, that had freed the State, and
which would remove every bar 70 It's

with all the ministers in town to urge
