GUTHRIE, o. T., March 29-Clifford E.
Seay, private secretary to the governor,
has just returned from the line of the
Cheyenne and Arapahoe reservations.
All of the allotments to Indians have
been completed, county seats and lines
finally located and other preliminary
arrangements made. Everything is now
in readiness for the presidents proclama-
tion. At Kingfsher and Hennessey every
hotel and boarding house is packed, and
hundreds are living in temporary tents.
Every incoming train Is loaded down.
Thousands are coming in wagons. Wa
gon trains can be seen going in that di-
rection, some of which are a mile in
length. A message from one of the vii
lages in the Indian country 100 miles east
of here says that nearly 500 negroes
have passed through, coming to-
the new lands on foot from Arkansas.
1t is estimated that by April 10. the date
fixed for the opening, fully 5000 will be
ready to enter the lands. About one.
fifth of these will be negroes. The
Cheyenne and Arapahoe tribes, who have
been allotted lands to this reservation,
number 5000, and no1e of them are civ
ilized in the least. It has been but few
years since they were openly on the war
path.

MandalaY Running.

CALCUTTA, March 30-Dispatches from
Mandalay, the capital of Burmah, say a
fire has been raging there since II o'clock
last night. Three-fourths of the city is
in ashes and the fire is not checked. The
loss of life is great. The rest of the city
will be destroyed before morning and
about $4,000 families will be homeless.
Among the buildings destroyed are the
old palace, the new government telegraph
Office and two converts.
The whole business portion of the CITY
will be swept away. Chief Secretary
Symes has appealed to the English in
Rangoon for aid. He telegrapbed that
thousands will die, unless food and medl
cines for the injured are sent at once.
Several physicians lett Rangoon for the
city tonight, and food will be sent to-
morrow. The residence of Sir Alexander
Mackenzie, chief commissioner, was
burned this morning and two of his ser
wants were mortally injured. The total
number of those severely burned Is
thought TO be about $500. The latest
reports say that the loss of life may reach
200, and perhaps more.

Fight Between Cenvicts.

SAN FRANCISCO, March s1.-There was
a bloody affray at San Quentin prison
yesterday. None of the guards We're at
tackled, for it was a convitts' quarrel.
Martin Gleeson and James Wilkinson,
convicts, engaged in desperate conflict,
which would have resulted In the certain
death of both had 1t rot been terminated
by the timely interference of the guards
Both men were ordered to roll number
of bales OF jute from the Enclosure into
the jule mill. Everything apparently
went we'll until after the dinner hour,
when the men resumed work. 1t ap
pears that Gleeson accused Wilkinson of
trying to shlrk his work. The accusation
aroused Wiikiuson's ire, and without
warning he rushed at Gleeson and at
tempted TO strike him with bale hook.
Gleeson was equal to the occasion, and,
also having bale hook in his hand, re
celved Wilkinson by striking bim 10 the
mouth with the hook. Gieeson followed
up his temporary advantage, and before
Wilkinson could retaiiate lore his tace in
several places with his weapon. When
Wilkinson found be had lost ali his front
teeth, and on The whole WAS getting a
good deal the worst OF the affray, be drew
his knife, used for cutting hemp, and
slashed his opponent across the throat.
Several guards, who noticed the commo-

dungeon, while Gleeson, who was
bleeding profusely. was removed to the
prison hospital. The doctor considers
the wound very dangerous.

The delegates to the state conven-
tion were carefully selected, and the
result was that some of the most rep
resentative men were elected. Those
from the city are we'll known to every
one, end in any emergency can be re-
lied upon to make such Legislature and
judicial nominations as will receive
the unanimous support of Republicans.
The same can be said of those from
the country, and the bowling of the
organ on the day previous was simply
the spleen of the editor, who took this
opportunity to vent his chagrin against
those who had defeated him as the
subservient tool of "hoss."

infuse life into American industries,
and keep wages to the maximum.
This may lead 20 reciprocity with
some nations, which are not competi-
tors, as has been demonstrated by the
Mckinley bill. But the John Stuart
Mill idea Of free.trade-commercial
intercourse without restriction or Gus
tom house duties-would soon bank
rupt this country, and Democrats dare
not advocate this in the halls of con-
gress or Oh the stump during any
presidential campaign, however much
they may be disposed In its
favor. On the tariff, 10y duplicity,
they cover over their real designs by
claiming to be moderate protectionists;
but the country is not deceived, and
the election of 1888. with Mr.. Cleve-
lands ideas fully explained ON the
question, emphasized this fact. The
campaign this year will be but a repe-
!ition of the one four years ago, and
the American voter, by tradition a
pro ,ectionist, will not be lulled into
sleep or forgetfulness by the syren
song of these "taritf reformers.

1888. His denial, however, was not very
strong, and many discrepancies appeared
in his replies in relation to them. The
police are of the belief they will yet DIS
cover evidence that he killed both. Some
time ago an old man was killed with an
ak. When Ravachol was questioned in
regard to this crime, his answer was very
weak. He was d graveyard ghoul. and
told of a number of graves he had robbed.
When the police searched his lodgings
they found among other evidences of
crlminal operations set of counter
feiter's tools. When questioned regard
ing the possession OF these unlawful
belongings he cody acknowledged that
be belonged to gang of counterfeiters,
but persistently refused to make any ad-
mission that would lead to the detection
of his coniederates. 1t is acknowledged
on all sides the police had good reason to
believe that Ravachol would make des
perate resistance against arrest, and those
who condemned them for not arresting
him some DAYS ago now admit the police
were right in not attempting to effect
capture until they had made sure there

states that Ravachol admitted he was the
author of the Boulevard st. German ex-
plosion. The chief of detectives asserts
that Chaumartln, an accomplIce of Rava-
chol now under arrest, betrayed his
leader and told the police that Ravachol
intended to blow up the house of Bulot,
one Of the prosecuting counsel in the
recent anarchist trials. Bulot's residence,
80 Rue Cllchy, was the scene of the
destructive explosion of Sunday morning.
Ravachol lived at st. Maude, near the
Wood of St. Vincennes, four miles SOUTH
east of Paris. He was seen going to
Paris Sunday morning, carrying small
portmanteau. Ravachol is watched in
prison night and day by three detectives.
He is the lllegitima.e son of German
parents, born In France.

The tactics of politicians tend in

The tactics of politicians tend In
every manner possible to weaken the
standing of opposing candidates with
the people, and these are well under
stood by the leaders of the Democratic
party. This was brought forcibly to
mind by reading an exchange, In which
it was said that the "ticket nominated
last Saturday" by the Republicans
"has number of good men on it, but
as whole is weak" We do not un-
derstand in what the elements of
weakness consist if the candidates are
"gooa men," 1t may be true that a
"good man" may not be popular, but
undoubtedly he adds strength to the
ticket on which he runs, morally if not
politically, and all fair-minded men will
so consider the nomination. Party
trickery is too frequently used to destroy
the prospects of efficient candidates, and
in too many instances is successful.
The great question with every intelli-
gent American citizen when he casts
his ballot should be whether the can
didate for whom he votes is capable
and honest man. 1t makes little diff
whether he is socially agreeable if he
has the capacity to manage the affairs
of the office for which he is nominated
in competent aDd honest manner.
In county, and even in municipal
affairs, tae elector has a weighty re-
sponsibility upon him, and he cannot
be too careful in casting the elective
franchise.

Ri0ting in Prague.

PRAGUE, March 2o.-In spite of the inter-
diction by the government, the native Czechs
gathered in great numbers last night to cele.
brate the anniversary of the birth of John
Comenius, distinguished seventeenth century
educational reformer. The police charged
the crowd with drawn swords. The latter
resisted with sticks, and were only dispersed
after a desperate battle and many arrests.
The crowd assembled at another point, de-
nounced Minister of Education Gaulsch and
cheered for Comen;us. The police charged
again and another battle ensued, resulting like
the former, The crowd then started for the
Jewish quarter 10 wreak vengeance on the
Hebrews. On the road they were met by
detachment of mounted police. Refusing to
turn back, the police spurred their horses into
the crowd, slashing right and left with swords
They met a stubborn resistance, and it was
only after drawing of, reforming and max
ing second charge that the rioters were put
to rout, very many of them with severe sword
wounds or injuries caused by being trampled
upon by the horses. They were removed to
the hospitals and their wounds dressed, and
then locked up. All is quiet today. No
further trouble is feared.

A Reign of Terror.

PARIS. March 2o.-The police are extra
ordinarily active after the anarchists. The
money loss to the city on account of the recent
explosion is very great. Many visitors are
leaving the city. 1t is not known where the
next blow will strike There is no denying
the fact that the expressed intention of the
anarchists 10 inaugurate a reign of terror has
caused great CONSERVATION. An important
meeting of the authorities was held at the
ministry of the interior today. The situation
was discussed in all its bearings. 1t was ar
ranged to execute stringent measures for the
prevention of further outrages. The resi-
dences of prominent officials are guarded day
and night. Thevenet, ex-minister of justice,
has received a threatening letter. Judge
Benoit, against whom the recent explosion in
the boulevard St. Germain was directed, has
been notified to quit by his landlord, who Says

his property interests IN Gillian

Mrs. Greenwood's slayer.

Boise, March 2o--The sheriff of Boise
county has in custody w. F. Smith, whom h.
is certain is one of the murderers of Mrs.
Greenwood, of Napa, Cal The man answers
the description of one of the men in every
particular; and his actions, both before and
after his arrest, only serve to strengthen the
sheritt's belief that he is the man wanted
Smith came to Idaho City several days ago.
He registered at the only hotel in the place
and said he walked across the noun q ms from
Warrens. AT this season of the year no man
could perform this feat and survive. Smith
was at once the object of suspicion. The
sheriff discovered that his signature upon the
hotel register was identical with the chirog
raphy of the missing murderer, and other
pecuiarities were noted. After his arrest,
Smith refused to be photographed, ard so
distorted his face that poor likeness was
secured. The photograph will be sent to the
NaPa sheriff. Tomorrow, a man with a
kodac will take snap shot at Smith, hoping
to get good likeness.

The Pendleton Tribune truthfully
says: 1t is conceded that both the
Republican and Democratic conven-
tions will recognize the reasonable and
just claims of the East Oregon coun-
ties and confer the congressional nom
ination upon men resident upon this
side of the mountains. This is right,
but more is due. The increasing pop
ulstion here, the rapid material de-
velopment and the vitality differing
natural conditions between the two
sections demand that the vast region
east of the Cascades should be repre-
sented upon the supreme bench of the
state. This is reason, not selfshness.

PHILADELPHIA, March 31--Claus
Spreckels, whose immense sugar refinery
was recently absorbed by the sugar trust,
left for San Francisco with his family at
noon in special car attached to regu.
lar train ON the Pennsylvania road
Much disappointment Is felt at his de-
parture, as his choice of site in this city
for the location of his refinery, with
which he proposed to fight the sugar
trust. was source of much qualification
to members of the board of trade and
other organizations working for the COM
merclal advancement of the city. With
them Spreckels frequently showed de-
sire to cooperate, and great expectation
was entertained IN consequence. The
Hawaiian sugar king" always declared
he would maintain bis independence, and
from time to time most emphaucally
denied the numerous rumors that bis re-
finery had been absorbed by the trust.
With the recent sales of his property to
that organization, however, Spreckels
has apparently lost all interest in this
city.

A spokane Mystery.

SPOKANE, March 2o.-At o'clock this
morning Trix Layton, wife of Al Layton, a
gambler, was found in her rooms with bull
let through her brain. She had been dead
but short time, and was not yet cold in
death. Half an hour previous police officer,
hearing cries from the river, climbed down
the bank and found Layton in the water,
clinging TO log and almost dead from the
chill. The man was taken out and removed
to the police station, and another gambler
went to the room to inform his wife, when the
discovery was made that she was dead. On a
table in the room was found this note: sI
love my Al; am to blame for it all, AL; for
give me, my darling" The opinion is about
evenly divided between murder and suicide
Layton refused to- talk. The couple had been
quarreling violently for two days. Some be-
lieve that in fit of desperation the woman
shot herself, others believe that she wrote the
note and started to leave Layton, but met him
at the door and was murdered This belief is
strengthened by the fact that when found she
was clad in a cloak, hat and gloves. The
couple came from San Francisco about six
weeks ago. Layton had been dealing faro in
the Richelieu gambling rooms. He is about

Harrison has abandoned his contemplate
ed ducking trip in order to personally
conduct the negotiations for renewal of
the modus vivendi, having brought the
matter to point where it seemed prob
able that an early agreement would be
made. He has been busily engaged
most of the day upon this subject. This
afternoon General Foster was with him
some time, and later Senator Morgan, a
member of the senate committee on
foreign relations, spent an hour with the
president. He stated last night there
had been no further written correspond
ence between the two governments. The
negotiations are proceeding wholly by
personal ir.erviews, and the presidents
confidence that an agreement will be
speedily reached, is believed to be well

II may be of some interest to our
citizens to know that the bill amend
ing the charter so as to permit The
Dalles to incur an extra Indebtedness
of $25, 900 was passed in the last legis-
lature by the efforts of Hon. Chas.
Hilton, and was opposed by Senator
Watkins. The bill, as introduced,
provided that only taxpayers should
vote on this char ter, and Mr.. Hilton
presented an amendment that water
consumers, directly interested, should
be electors on this question. After
this passed, Mr.. Watkins opposed the
water bill, and, we are informed, on
the day of its passage, arose in the
senate and urgently requested that it
should be defeated. In this matter
his harangues will be long remembered
by his former friends-those who sup
ported him for circuit judge when the
faction in this city we're doing every
thing to defeat him.. As regards the
new charter, we have only to repeat
what we said at the time, it was the
nearest approach to "Star Chamber"
methods that was ever attempted to
be imposed upon any municipality IN
this or any other state, and its defeat
was well merited. Notwithstanding
these facts, the editor of the organ,
suffering under his own defeat at the
primaries, attempted the duplicity to
use this as an argument against those
who stood by the interests of the peo-
pie during the session of the last leg
islature. But, at the primaries, and
in the county convention. the cleo
rors-the sovereignty of the republic
have spoken in emphatic terms, and
the TIMES -MoUNTA1NEER is we'll salts
fed. 1t is no longer handwriting
on the wall, but an emphatic decision
by the sovereign people that bossism
and the machine rule have no standing
hereafter in Republican politics in
Wasco county.

The Democratic lower no,

The Democratic lower house of
congress have bowed the pregnant
hinges of the knee to Wall street, aod
failed to pass the Bland free coinage
Dill, although having l5O majority.
This is an object lesson for the Demo-
cratic press that have been burdened
with charges against Republicans that
they were under the control of cor
porations, and also for that portion of
the American people who believe that
Democracy Is in favor of reforming
the Ills now extant in the republic.
Mr. Bland considered his bill safe at
the convening of congress, and Speaker
Crisp was elected on this issue; but
Tammany is very powerful In the
party, and Wall street wieids great
influence with Tammany. So the
wheel within the wheel has moved the
machinery and produced the result
desired by the bosses. This is De-
mocracy; and fully corroborates the
traditions of the party from the time
of the Dred Scott decision anu pass
age of the Fugitive Slave law to the
success of the Mills bill-giving pro-
lection to southern sugar raising and
leaving western wool-growers without
the least safeguards against foreign

The answer of Salisbury to the note
of our government regarding the mo-
da1s vsvendi is deemed satisfactory, and
the war cloud has drifted harmlessly
over both countries, without deluging
these nations in death and consequent
ills. This is as it should be, for there
is no more reason for nations 10 settle
difficulties by killing the subjects or
citizens of each other in the
most expeditions manner than it is for
gentlemen to settle disputes by the
Sullivan method. Men are too civil
lied to willingly furnish food for pow
der, and nations are too far advanced
to consider the logic of canon or rife

The Oregomiaas reports that thus far
nearly 1000 persons in that city have
confessed conversion, and the number
is daily increasing. This looks very
hopeful for the metropolis, and, if the
good work continues, one may expec
that the number of honest men will be
sufficient to insure fair treatment of
visitors from the interior. If religion
is taking an upward tendency in
Portland, the people will hope that
there will be less sophistry, chicanery
and duplicity, and that visitors from
the interior will feel safer in buying
real estate or in purchasing goods. If
Christianity inculcates honesty, it will
make less deception and prevaricatlon,
and if it does not do this, it has done.
