Other NaIIon II News.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Representative
Scott, of Illinois. has introduced bill
prohibiting the postoffice department
from selling stamped envelopes bearing
the usual printed request for return to
the owner after limited period. Speak
ing of the resolution, Mr.. Scott said:
Under the present law, the government
is direct competitor with every printing
house IL the country. 1t is an unwar-
ranted trespass by the government upon
the private business of every printer in
the United States. Many millions of
dollars annually are by this act taken
from the printing business. This does
not seem far or just. The government
should take its hands off and not oppress
one OF the greatest and most important
industries of our country.

The Mexican Border.

MONTEREY, Mexico, Jan. 15.-General
Reyes latest adyices from Mier are that
everything on the frontier is quiet
Nothing would better please the Mexican
government than for the United States
authorities to allow the insurgents to
cross over to this side, so that they conld
be annihilated. In the meantime the
authorities are watching the insurgents
closely aud are ready to promptly sup.
press any outbreak which might occur.
General Reyes contends that the Chihua-
hua affair amounts to nothing. 1t Is the
opinion here that DIaz Is willing for the
revolutionists to proceed, SO that be can
find out exactly who is putting up the
money and who is the real head. The
terrible poverty naturally causes uneasi-
ness. Starving men are willing to fight
for their bread, and unless the wants of
the people are relieved they could easily
be converted into an army, and this ID
what causes anxiety. PInkerton men are
at work ferreting out the leaders, and a
woman has been employed to fascinate
CARA if she can find him.

ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan. 15.-The contro-
versy existing between the United States
aud the Cnilian government has caused
the young Americans in East St. Louis
to OF gauize a company of volunteers with
the intention of responding to the first
call of the president for troops to go to
Chill. A committee of prominent young
men has been appointed to write to the
secretary of war and inform him of the
steps taken toward forming company,
and to ask him to give the East St. Louis
bows first place in case trouble should.

tween Carlos Espaza, discharged prison

vanced five PAGES and fired again, when
both were wounded, Espaze more severely
than his adversary, but neither fatally.

mckinley ON the Wool Tariff.

COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 15.-In a speech
before the agricultural convention yester-
day afternoon, Governor Mckinley said:
There Is one thing that they all might as
we'll make up their minds to down East:
That they cant have wool free when it
comes from the sleeps back and put
tariff on it when it comes on our backs.
They cannot have wool come into their
factories in New England free, and come
out of their factories with tariff to the
American people,"

Mrs. Greenwood,s murderer Iaentiaea

NAPA, Cal, Jan. 17.-Sheriff George s.
Mckenzie arrived here this morning with
Carl Schmidt, who confessed at Denver
to killing Mrs. Greenwood at Greenwood's
home, south of this city, in February last.
Mckenzie sent for MIR. Greenwood and
called about forty other men. Schmidt
was then brought in, and without any
hesitancy picked out Mr.. Greenwood
from many others. So soon as Schmidt
was taken out Greenwood positively
identified him as one of the murderers.

The Railroad strikers.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Jan. 1s.-Last
night the Arkansas Pass road rendered
the Southern Pacific car which was
made up with the west-bound train.
This morning the Southern Pacific train
men refused to take ou: the train unless
the Arkansas Pass car was cut out. This
was done, and the train departed. The
superintendent of the road will ariye 10
morrow and look into the state of affairs.
Further trouble may be precipitated at
any hour. Local business men are NOV
ing to assist in settling the strike on the
Arkansas Pass, and prevent spread of
trouble.

General AIgers's View of the Situa-
ti0n.
DETROIT, Jan, 17.--General Alger, in
an interview here 10 dav said.

an interview here to day, said:
There is good deal of Chilian war
talk in Washington and war may be the
outcome Of the present situation. The
army and navy naturally favor it and
their influence is felt. War prepara-
tions always excite and enthuse the
masses too, and war policy Is apt to be
temporarily popular on that account.
But il seems to me 1t would be prudent
and proper to send commission 20 Chill,
previous to a determination to begin
hostilIties with lhe view of thus securing
ample preparation and avoiding an ap-
peal to ans, which would sacrifice not
less than 10000 lives and cost $780,
100000. If the commission failed,
war wnuld be inevitable, and l
only refer to the appointing of
commission as means of honorably
avoiding hostilIties. There is one good
result of the war scare, anyway. 1t has
people of the necessity for a
strong navy.

xDeath-Trap Dis x,vered.

CHANDLER, I. T., 15.-For years the
disappearance of travellers across the
river from here has been frequent and
mysterious. To day house which was
evidently built for criminal purpose was
discovered. The house was so arranged
that persons entering must pass over the
trap, which, when sprung, precipitated
them to cavern beneath. In the cavern
hair, dried blood and bones were dis
covered on the rocks at the bottom.

DR.. Blalock, of Walla Walla, took sure
way of exhibiting railroad extorting to the
board Of trade at Seattle. He sent a box of
apples, omltting to pay the freight. The
board paid 95 cents freight charges and 25
cents for city delivery. ''Now," said
the doctor, 'you can perceive why Walla
Walla ships so little fruit to Puget Sound"

A RAILROAD MOVEMENT.
Originated by the Salem Board
of Trade for a Connection
With Astoria.

There was a well attended en-
thusiastic meeting of the Salem
board of trade at the parlors of
Hotel Willamette Thursday even
ing. The gentlemen present were
all excited over the necessity of do
ing something locally TO take ad-
vantage of the railroad situation and
secure for this city and the central
valley a railroad connection with
the new Astoria railroad.
Secretary Wagner made a glow
ing statement of Salem's Opper-
tunity. President Cottle and p. S.
Knight spoke energetically along
the line of Salem organizing a COM
pany to build to Mehama and there
secure a connection with the Oregon
Pacific. Such road would be a good
local feeder for Salem, secure us a
connection with transcontinental
system and become an inducement
to secure a connection with Astoria.
COMMITTEES.
The following standing commit
tees were appointed:
Soliciting Committee-A. 1. Wag-
ner, F. n. Derby, It. II. Barnes, j.
G. Booth and George NJ. B. eler.

Wright.
President Cottle was added to the
committee and the committee was
instructed to at once enter into COM
munication with the projectors OF
the Astoria enterprise. 1t is certain
that this part Of the valley will do
the handsome thing by the first line
that crosses the valley at this point.
A connection with the Yaquina
Bay route was very favorably dis
cussed.

WHAT THE BANKS SAY.
About City Warrants--Two Receive
Them Only From Depositors
Two Cash Them.

Learning that some of the Salem
banks refused to cash city warrants,
a reporter made the rounds and
ascertained the following:
The First National cashier said:
"We are not buying them. When
they are presented as deposits by
our regular customers we do not
refuse them"
Williams g. England Banking Co.:
"We do not cash city warrants. We
take some as depCsits."
Capital National bank: "We have
cashed city warrants at par since we
opened our doors and expect to con-
tinue to do so. The city warrants
involve no liability that is not pro-
vided for by the assessment and levy
at present being made. The uni
form action of courts is such as to
compel cities to pay their obligations
for current expenditures properly
authorized. We have perfect conf
dence in the solvency of Salem city
finances. We consider city warrants
at per cent. good investment.
OF course, grossly extravagant, un-
necessary expenditure, entailing a
large issue of warrants, would affect
the credit of the city unfavorably,
but could not be retroactive on city
warrants"
A. Bush: 1--WE have cashed all
warrants and under prudent man
agement of city finances shall con-
tinue to do so.n
Salem city warrants are good
property.

IOWA REPUBLICANS.
Met TO Elect Delegates TO the Ma.
tional Convention.


tional Convention.
Dies MONIES, March 1S.-The Re
publicans in state convention met
here yesterday. Chairman Struble,
in his address, paid glowing compli-
ments to Harrisou's administration.
Speaking of tue tariff, he said the
Democrats have been discussing raw
wool for four months. At that rate,
when would they get throughF He
said the Republicans had a number
of lnen who as candidates could
succeed In November. Harrison
himself was foremost, and James G.
Blaine second. Democrats available
were limited to Grover Cleveland
and David b. Hill.
"Where is Boies ?" shouted dele
gate.
Struble said the country first
wanted to hear from Boies on the
silver question.
The convention then proceeded to
ballot for four delegates at large. j.
S. Clarkson, Ex-Governor Gear, f
E. Mack and d. q. Chase were
elected. Clarkson received the low
est number of votes, being cut in
strong Harrison counties because 1t
was thought he did not favor the re-
nomination of the president.
The report of the committee on
resolutions was presented with an
explanation that the committee
thought best to report only resolu-
tions upon national issues. The
resolutions expressed the hope that
the Republican party will make a
declaration of principles and nomi-
nate a ticket for the campaign of
1892 in accordance with their past,
and be true to the present principles
of the party. The administration
of President Harrison was endorsed.
An appeal is made to Republicans in
all parts of the state TO unite on
great Republican principles. The
report was adopted without opposi-
ton and the covention adjourned.

POLICY SHOP GAMBLING.
The Authorities Are Resolved to
Break it Up.

Break it Up.
LOUISVILLE, KY, March lS.-The
excitement among the lottery ven
ders continues unabated, and those
who have not closed are not by any
means feeling easy even If they are
keeping open and selling tickets.
Wednesday night five yenders
closed their offices and decided not
to risk going to prison for the small
amount of money they would
probably take in. The owners Of
the buildings occupied are becoming
anxious too, since they have dis
covered that they are liable to a fine
of from $500 to $4,000, and imprison-
ment for one year, for renting their
premises for lottery purposes. A
number have notified the venders
that they must seek other quarters.
Others have forbidden them to open
at all, and insist upon the offices
being closed at once. The effect Of
the lottery scare upon the venders
receipts today was manifest. One
man said that their receipts all over
the city will be cut down fully one
half. The absence of the usual
crowds Of negroes about the offices
was noticeable. They are probably
frightened by the prospect Of arrest
and punishment, and few cared TO
run a risk by playing. Besides the
five policy shops which closed, nine
additional ones put up their
shutters yesterday. This makes
fourteen in all. There are still
twenty-six shops open. The shaky
venders are cheered up with
promises Of protection at the noon
drawing, but several more are on
the point NJ giving up the business.
