The Police Bali.

The Portland Police Department will give
their thirteenth annual ball at City Hall on
next Tuesday evening, when Chambers
Band will furnish the music. 1t is we'll
known fact that court fees, which belong to
the police of other cities, and are used for a
relief fund, are not given to our force
neither do they enjoy other emoluments
which other cities grant to their policemen
The profits of the police balls have generally
gone to provide the men with warm over
coats, and we hope that they will find a
ready sale for tickets.

after visiting each of these places the hose

presented = number Of Indictments,
which are kept secret sbscause- ths !
parties have not yet been arrested.
Among the indictments three ars1
against r. X. Backarow, who ID still

attempted abduction and false simpri-
sonment, the second for attempted
bribery and the third for assault and
battery. Judge Hicks aksdst the bond
ON the first indictment At $500 and
1000 on the third. It 10 understood
that Judge Hicks desires 70 invssti.
gate the. law fully before fixing the
bond on the pressntmsnt for attempted
bribsry.
These indictments were ioand by

In fixing the bonds ct high fgursl
Judge Hicks has bssn governed mesi
probably BY the cousidsfatien .of The
enormity Of the crime which: .fortu'
natsly failed in its consumation, By
a mere accident the unsophisticatsd

the clutches of eternal. dAmnation on

1t Is contended by some that tAe
guilty party cannot b convicted under
the law. A trial Of the case, however,
may convince some persons entertain
ing those views Of their error. With
malice towards none and with full
measure Of symathy and charity for
