The TxIEGRAx-HERALD has on two
or three occasions called attention TO
10 the fact that any appointment given
10 the Democratic members Of the
squawbuek Legislature by the Gov
ernor, or any other State authority,
would be null and void under section
IL, of article 4, OF the constitution.
Just in the nick of time TO head OF
any such appointments. even II the
constitutional provision were not plain
enough for Democratic Governor to
understand 10, comes Supreme Court
decision. that effectually quenches the
ambition of Bastone TO be deputy oil
inspector. W isner TO be . member OF
the consolidated asylum board or OF
the Worlds Fair commission, and OF
Cook 10 be- secretary of that commits
son. These three debatable statesmen
resigned their Offices Immediately after
adjournment and have been standing
with wIde-open mouths crying for pap
ever since. But on the very day they
resigned came the decision, which
turns the tempting fruit Of their par
tisan labors all INTO dead Sea apples"
The statement of the case and decis-
ion is ss follows: A West Bay City al
derman, elected for two years, resigned
bis position at the end Of year to &C.
cept the position OF chief of police.
The Supreme Court ousted him rs IN
eligible under the statute which forbids
any alderman taking any such position
during the term for which he Was
elected" The court says this provision
"means just what it says" and in this
connection cites with approval the con-
stitutional provision (Sec. Is, Art. A.
mo person elected . member OF the
Legislation shall receive any civil ap-
poiutment within the State by the Gov
ernor. or any other state authority,
during the term for which he was
elected" and that "all such appoint
ments shall be void"
This will remove any hope OF ap-
pointment from these three WORTHLESS
beyond 1892, after which il is safe TO
say there will be no Democratic Gov
ernor to ladle out any pap to them.
This will be an exceedingly bitter pill
for Bastone. The first reward for his
treachery was vetoed by the Governor.
and now the second one has been
snatched from his lips while yet ne was
gaping for il. Truly, the crooked ways
of Democratic partisan lead to disap.
roin,rnent ard bitterness of heart

Burning Of the Eastern Oregon.

The Oregon Improvement Com
pany's steamer Eastern Oregon was
wholly consumed by fire, with the ex-
ccption OF the iron hull, while on the
grId-iron ut Pcrcival's dock, about 8
o'clock Tuesday night. She had ar
rived but Il few hours previously for
the express purpose OF repairs, and had
just got on the ways when her destruc-
ton came. Capt. Green, her CON-
mander, was experimenting a force of
men who were preparing torches and
paint pots for work on the bottom OF
the ship. 1t was necessary to boil the
paint, and in doing this it seems, the
material caught fire, and soon spread
from the galley TO the main part OF
the ship. 80 rapid was its progress,
that the crew had barely time to
awaken their comrades of the next
watch who had retired. A number es-
capped in their night clothes, and some
were 80 excited that they jumped over
board into the mud. In twenty min
utcs from the time the alarm was
given the upper works, with the ex-
ccption of the fore deck and pilot
house, was secthing mass of flames.
Our fire department were promptly on
duty, but the position OF the ship was
such that they could do but little in
staying the flames. The vessel was
filled with water, however, and that
doubtless saved the hull and machinery
from damage 10y heat.
The Eastern Oregon is vessel of
about 800 tons burden, and was for
mcrly the City Ut Polatke, in the
Florida trade. She was brought to
this coast in 1887 by the Oregon Pa
ciiic Railroad CO., to run on the route
between San Francisco and Yaquina
bay, but last year passed into posses
SION oil her present owners and was
brought to tie Sound. She cost when
new $250,0O0, and the loss by fire, it is
thought will foot up $lS0,OOO.
The saddest incident connected with
this disaster was only discovered after
the flames had been extinguished, and
that was that u human being had
been sacrificed. The body of the
third cook was found in the forecastle
burned in a horrible manner. His
name was Charles Neitchwartz, but he
WAS better known as Ouch Charlie"
Further than this nobody seemed able
to give any information.
Much credit is due to our fireman
for their persistent efforts all night to
keep the fire from doing damage to
the hull and in combining it to the
least possible limits. Under the cir
cumstances they did exceedingly well,
as i'll fact they always do when their
services are called into requisition.
