No Fear Of Death, but Anger and Curl
osity Beigned.
Sir Lyon Playfair in letter to Junius
Henri Browne, says
II have known three friends who
were partially devoured 10y wild beasts
under apparently hopeless circum.
stances OF escape.
"The first was Livingstone. the great
African traveller, who was knocked on
his back by a lion, which began to
MUNICH his arm. He assured me that
be felt no pain or fear, and that his only
feeling was one Of intense curiosity as
TO which part of his body the lion would
take next.
"The next was Rustcm Pasha, now
Turkish Ambassador in London. A
bear attacked him and tore Off part of
his hand and part of his arm and
shoulder
"lle also assured me that he had
neither pain nor fear, but that he felt
excessively angry because the bear
grunted with so much satisfaction In
munehing him.
The third case Is that Of Sir Edward
Bradford, an Indian officer, now occu.
pying a high position 10 the Indian
service
"He was seized In a solitary place by
a tiger, which held him firmly behind
the shoulders with one paw and then
deliberately devoured the whole Of his
arm, beginning at the end and finishing
al the shoulder.
"IIe was positive that he had no sen.
sation OF fear and thinks that he felt a
little pain when the fangs went through
his hand, but Is certain that he felt
none during the munching Of his arm. "

The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1890-04-11


II Is cons dered in the Washington 70
litioaI circles that the action Of the com
mittees IN both Houses on the silver ques-
ton indicates that large number, If moi
majority of the members Of both
branches Of congress, favor considerable
expansion In the silver element of the cir.
culaiing medium, and If either Of the bills
proposed--the Jones or the Window bill
becomes law, the yearly increase in
the white metal section Of the currency
Will be at least twice as crest as 1t has been
under present regulations. But 1t is also
considered that the antagonism between
these two measures added to the opposi-
tion TO free coinage will be effective In
preventing the passage Of any silver bill at
the present session.

MAKING cLOTnING DEAR


The Republican sarif Bill proposes an in-
crease of duty on nearly everything that &
worn by the people.
Cotton cloth, already taxed at an average Of
nearly 80 per cent, is burdcned with an IN
creased duty Of from one quarter TO three
quarter cents per yard. Cotton thread yarn
and wfrps are increased three cents per pound
As a Protection organ puts il, ''Ihe duty on
nearly every article in the Gotten manufactures
schedule is increased. Not content with this
the Committee has discovered a new OF ject Of
taxation has imposed duty Of 50 per cent ae
vaioyea on ready made garments composed Of
cotton or other vegetable fibre.
A very .-eavy increase Of duties is made in
woods and woolen manufactures. The people
Of this country paid las, year over $4,000. 900
in taxes on these indispensable articles Mr
McKinley's Committee proposes that the peo-
pie shall pay still more IN fines, shall wear
shoddy or 60 cold.
A duty Of IS per cent Is threatened On hides
with the object Of increasing the cost Of boots
and shoes.
The duties on hax, jute and hemp, on linen
and on cotton baggiug are about doubled.
And this is reforming the tariff by its
friends" dhen before in the history Of civil
ized government has it been proposed 10 re
duce superauous revenues by raising taxes and
to relieve the burdens Of the people by increas.
ing the cost Of their clothing and other neces-
saries?

REPUBLICAN MODERATION.

The republicans IN congress are going
merrily on in their looting schemes. but
the senate at least is more cautious than
the country had reason to expect at the
beginning of the session. The dependent
pension bill was rushed through with an
energy and speed which must have graii-
fed the large horde of hungry claim
agents who are waiting for fees.
There was halt called, however, on Mr.
PluSnb's amendment, which provided for
the repeal of the limitation in the Arrears
act. The republicans has promised to sup
port this scheme, but something has oc-
CARED to brighten the boodlers and their
friends, for Mr. Hawley and othe. repuhll
cans protested against going to this ex.
treme verge Of boldness. MIR Hawley as-
serted that the cost of pensions for the
coming year would be $I3o,ooo, 900, and
that the repeal of the Limitation would cos,
the government $Soo,ooo,ooo. Mr. Plumb
admitted that the expenditures demanded
would be S47S.ooo.ooo. The passage oI
such an act would cost the taxpayers oi
this country more than the charge oi
maintaining the standing armies Of France
and Germany put together. And It h
though, that this reiusual of the republl-
cans to take $500. 900, 900 oct Of the treas
ury for partisan purposes Is moderation
What are We to expect from party thai
thus defines modcrationi OF two things
at least VIC may be eertainA-that otheI
pension and subsidy grabs will have an
easier way, and that this very proposition
Is not 50 dead tina, 1t cannot come up Ia
the House and Teappear In the senate.

THE GREAT FIGHT.

The Mercury gives the following grapie
aceoun, Of the great faeiional hght between
the two republican bosses in Portland. The
idea that "iears from heaven wilhoa, and grog
from within" should moisten the proceedings
Is funny:
'sThis has been a wet afternoon.
II has been moisiencd by tears from hsavea
without aud eopious draughss ol grog from
within.
Il has been hos and cold.
Hot for the fellows who man the hgh, and
eold-oh 50 iey-iof those who have suffered
defeat.
Spirits have gone up and spirits have gone
down.
Tue people have voted and 50 have the
dollars.
It has been conies, Of brains. Of Drawn
and Of money.
No pebble was ieft undis,urbed, and no
blooming flower, II il lad vote, has been lef
10 wi,her unnoliced by the wayside.
II has been hgh, TO the finish. and the
gloves have been of silken thlnncss.
The two political elephants. as represented
BY the Mercuy's special artist, have leen for
weeks and weeks vigorously pulling in opposite
directions. The Hebrew git Of Mr Simon
has betn piited against the Irish muscle Of Mf
Lotan. Neither foe would compromise With
the other and the democratic tiger has been
locking on with unconcealed satisfaction, The
rayenous heart has been waiting for the death
struggle Of the republican party, Intending 10
pounce upon il at time when Il woGiI be-
come an easy prey.

The Democrat.

Il was the almost universal verdict Of del
cgales 10 the democratic county convention
held Tuesday that the ticket put forth ls
one olunusual strength. Greater harmony
existed than for years past. TIonJ X Wealth
erlord and Hon JEFF Myers the nominees
for senators are beth men of Legislative
experience. Mr. weatherford is an en-
phalic type OF the self-made man. Start
ing In life with the loss of parental care. he
has steadily worked his way up TO his
present high standing as lawyer and ex-
emplary citizen as well. lie is too well
known to the great body OF the voters OF
the county to require an extended notice
here. Hon Jeff Myers Is representative
Of the young, progressive democracy Of
the county, so many of whom were In the
convention. He is a man OF strong, solid
sense and will make good senator.
Hon F c Hansard, DIR ] F Henry, and c ]

II was a matter Of note with all, that there
were more young men In The democratic con-
venlion yesterday than has ever been known
before.
The u'vs rpse method Of voting praeliced
IN yesterdays convention was highly satisiac-
tory to nine ,enths sf the democrats present.
l. was emlnenily success.
Every democrat present At the convention
expresses the belief that, by earnest work.
every man on the ticket will be elected by
good majority on the second Of June.
In yesterdays convention the fair plain ex-
preston Of the win Of the majority was obtain
ed in the nomination Of candidates. There
were no combines.
Evidences cropped out on all sides ,sster
day showing that the democrats Of Linn are IN
exeellen. lighting trim.
The boys felt somewhat awkward yes,etda
voting siUs vocs but they soon got into the
harness all right, Democrats always get into
the harness when il comes 10 volin..
c c Jackson showed his unaduheEaled de.
moeraey as well as his true manlinsss by NOV
ing that the nomination Of Mat Scott. his com
petitor. be made unanimous. BY the way Mr.
Hackieman. when beaten for clerk by MI
Payne, did the handsome thing by making ,h'
motion that Mr. Payne's nom nation be mad,
unanimous. Also Prof Mitchell came up smil
ing and asked that Prof Russells nomination
for school superintendent be made unanimous
The truth Is there was an unusual overflow o
good feelings among democrats generally,
A delegate from "the forks" who lahore,
hard for Jackson says that the maa who wa
popular enough to beat him is entitled and wi
receive the democratic vote Of that region h

The attemptto make them pay up was sue
eessfnl in all cases except one-that of the
Morris and Essex Railroad, which main
tanned that 1t owed nothing and would pay
a like amount. Two arbitrators were ap-
pointed, one by the company and one by
the state,and the corporations layers kept
the case dragging along four years. Peo-
pie began to despair. But as soon as Gov.
Albeit was elected a second time the rail
