Friends of the Bill Now Expect 1t to
Become a Law.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE international
copyright bill has been snatched from the
jaws OF death. The dependency which
oppressed its friends last night has given
way to buoyant confidence tonight that on
Monday it will pass the Senate in just the
same shape as it passed the House, and
so will go directly to the President,
who is waiting to sign it. This confidence
is based on the vote of 20 to 81, by which
the Senate to-day took out OF the bill all
the amendments which had been put in it
ia committee Of the whole. The fight has
been unusually and unexpectedly desperate,
but IL seems now about TO be won by the
copyright men, although by very small
majority.

Another Stage Robbery.

The stage thatruns between John Day
City and Long Creek was held up last
Thursday at the edge of Fox valley on
the head of Beach Greek. The robber,
mounted on a sorrel horse rode up be-
hind the stage and leveling his Winches-
ter at the driver, ordered him to throw
out the mail sack which the driver ac-
cordingly did, and having secured the
sack the robber rode off on dead run,
in an easterly direction. The thief wore
a mask and is described as a man of
middle size, weighing about $50 pounds.
When the driver arrived at the next
station several men armed themselves
and started in hot pursuit but were un-
able to overtake him. They however,
found the mail sack about a quarter of a
mile from where the robbery occurred.
1t had been cut open and rified of the
registered packages while the letters
were unmolested, save few that had
the corners torn off. The postmaster at
John Day says there were two registered
letters in the sack but it is not known
how much money they contained. There
is no clue to the perpetrator of the rob-
berry.

The Lion Dog ..saxon."

Boone and Charlotte the world-famed
lion tanners, who exhibit their lions lib
Grated and unmuzzled in the circus ring,
are assisted in their performance by a
magnificent German hunting hound,
which answers to the name of "Saxon.',
The dog was presented to Col. Boone by
Count Bismarck. These dogs are known
in Germany as the ''boar hound" and
are used in hunting the wild boar, and
it is only dogs of this breed that will not
run from a lion. Saxon accompanies
the lions throughout their entire per-
formance. He is to the lions what the
shepherds dog is to the fock-he urges
them on, stands guard over them and is
ever ready to do his masters bidding.
He is utterly fearless and to Sc e this in
telligent dog running after the lions,
barking at them. nipping at their heels,
and assisting them in their different acts
is delightful. Said Col. Boone, 81 would
not take thousand times his weight in
gold for this noble dog" Boone and his
lions will be here with Adam Fore
paugh's show on Wednesday, September
16. There will be no night show, but
only one afternoon exhibition.

D. s. BooDLERs EcLIPsED.

Recent revelations in Canada make it
evident that the politicians over that way
are no slouches in the boodling business.
Now that the story is told it would ap-
pear that nothing has ever equaled
it in the United States with perhaps the
single exception of the doings of the
Tweed ring in New York. OF contracts
aggregating three million dollars nearly
one million was paid as result of false
measurements. The settlement of the
estate of the late premier, Sir John
Mcdonald, has revealed the fact that he
was the nominal owner, in the names of
other parties, of large blocks OF
the subsidized Canadian stock, while the
discovery has been made that member
of parliament voted on the proposition
to pay himself the sum Of $4,000 on

If the rumor that the control of the
Union Pacific has passed into the hands
of the Vanderbilts should prove to be
true the people of Eastern Oregon will
have the satisfaction of the assurance
that the new management cannot pos
sibly be worse than the old and will in
all probability be much better. One
thing is certain the Vanderbilts know
how to run railroads so as to make them
pay. If they get control of the Union
Pacific the road will be conducted on
business principles, and this means bet
ter service to its patrons and not neces-
sarily higher rates. If the Vanderbilts
get control, the principle of saving at
the spigot while wasting at the bung
will be abandoned.

The Salem Journal is indignant be-
cause certain papers in the state are con-
tinuously casting reflections on the rail-
road commissions. The Journal claims
the commission has done its duty fear
lessy in the matter of reducing freights.
The new law governing the conduct of
the commission was framed by Speaker
Geer and is modelled in its main feature
after the Iowa law and now that the rail
roads have refused to obey the mandate
of the commission, the attorney general
will investigate the adjudications upon
that law which were carried ON in the
federal courts of Iowa and which the
Journal claims were sustained at every
contested point. If this is true the re-
sponsibility of enforcing the law will
now lie with the courts of this state.

FIT TO BE A WITNESS.

Judge Braham Catches Real Tartar on
the Stand.
From the Atlanta Constitution.
The other day Judge Branham OF
Rome, was attending Superior court at
Cedartown. One of the lawyers was ex-
amining a witness who was not the
brightest individual in the world. The
question arose as to whether the witness
was competent to testify. So the lawyer
thought he would make a test. He
looked at the man.
"Who made your"
Moses" answered the witness.
This satisfied the lawyer as to the in
competency of the Witness and he so
argued.
Then the witness turned to Judge
James and asked: e~az
''Judge, may ask the lawyer ques-
tion?'
Certainly" said Judge James.
"Well, Mr.. Lawyer. who made you?''
The lawyer thought he would still
further test the witness competency and
promptly answered:
Aaron made me.''
The witness was delighted with the
answer and, pointing his finger at the
lawyer, drawled out:
''Well, I've read that Aaron once made
calf, but 1 didn't never expect to see
hit a practicing at law in this yere
court?''
The lawyer blushed, the conrt laughed
and the question of competency of the
witness was affirmativelv settled
