The subject of the irrigation of arid
lands is Of great importance 70 the peo-
pie of this state. The House committee
on irrigation by an almost unanimous
vote has declared in favor of the promo
sition TO eede arid lands to the states 70 be
reclaimed by them. The secretary OF the
interior estimates that "l2u0lD. 900 OF
acres that are now desert may be re-
deemed by irrigation SO as TO produce the

still retain protection for their finished
goods, may support Democratic assault
upon the Mckinley tariff. but that assault
is sure TO fail.
The Mckinley tariff is fair tariff, fair
to both producer and manufacturer, and
only fair tariff can survive, so long as the
protective principle remains the American
policy. Make the tariff unfair by enacting
such measures as the Mills bill in ISIS or
the present Democratic measures provid-
ing for free wool, free lumber, etc, and the
New England manufacturer would have
his scalp quickly taken by the indignant
Western producers pooling issues with the
apostles Of absolute free trade.
The Mckinley tariff will stand, because
it is drawn in the interests of the farmer;
the artisan: the manufacturer; the pro-
Queer; in the interest OF the whole field Of
American labor. and American labor will
not be idiotic enough to wiring the neck of
the tariff goose that lays the golden egg
of universal industrial prosperity.

typhoid fever; not one of the family had
hope left: recovery was apparently i'm
possible. DR.. Jordan's wonderful Histo-

cording to his orders, and, true to his
promise, I recovered fully and entirely
and have now better general health than
before my sickness. besides having gained
thirty pounds in weight. This is not our

KNOXVILLE. Aug 19-The latest INTEL
Iigence was received from Coal Creek at
80 this morning. from correspondent
who escaped and made his way to
Offett's, where the wires are working.
His report confirmed the rumors received
earlier in the night that General Ander
son was captured by five men coming
under flag of truce. They entlced him
into the village by promises of safety.
On turning corner they were met by
mob, who took him TO hotel and de-
manded that he sign an order to his lieu
tenant for the surrender of the stockade
and tort. Though threatened with hang
ing, he refused to sign, and asked only
that be he shot aud his grave marked so
bis family could find it He may have
been lyncbed ere this. A desultory fir
ing lasted all night. The miners claim
to have killed five soldiers, and silenced
the howitzer 1t is silent but probably
to save ammunition. At Offrtt's General
Csrnes learned hat 500 miners awaited
him at Knspp's Summit. near Coal Creek,
and three cattle ears were filled with dy-
Mantle, so he left the train and went up
a narrow valley, and when last heard
from was within two miles of Coal Creek.

fight is expected.

Probably no other river of the United
States Is more difficult Of navigation than
the Columbia, and no boat makes more
perilous voyage than the Oity Of ElIens-
burgh, which navigates the river between
Wenatchee and the mouth of the Okano-
gan, distance of about one hundred
miles On the up trip the Methow aud
Chelan rapids are passed only by attach
ing line, and none but a first class
pilot, perfectly familiar with the river,
could avoid the numerous rocks and
reefs, and guide the staunch boat over
the multitude of small rapids which
must be passed on the adventurous jour-
ney. From beginning to end the trip is
full of interest and excitement, the
sturdy steamer hugging first one bank
and then the other, now gliding into the
smooth waters Of an eddy and In another
moment fighting its way, inch by inch,
over miniature cataract. In going up
the river a speed Of four or tIve miies Is
all that can be attained, but on the return
trip the scene changes and the slow,
plodding steamboat of the up-tnp be-
comes racing greyhound that leaps
through the treacherous rapids at the re-
markable speed of twenty five miles an
hour, thus distancing the fastest ocean

CORVALLIS, Aug. 19.-Flre broke out
at O'Clock this afternoon in the resi-
dence of N. P. Briggs. The flames were
discovered by workmen on the city hall,
who gave the alarm and rushed to the
scene, finding the building enveloped
In flames. Thinking they heard the
groans OF some one inside, they went In
at the risk of their lives and bore out
what proved to be the charred remains oil
Mrs Briggs. At first 1t was thought life
was no: entirely extinct, so physicians
were summoLed, but 1t was too late.
She had evidently inhaled the flames and,
being partially overcome. had started
from the room in ibe hope oi making her
escape. but sank exhausted in the hall
where she was found. No one seems to
know how the fire originated, as the rest
of the family were away, but the suppo-
sltion Is that she was starting fire in a
gasoline stove. which exploded Mrs.

Battle Raging IN the Mountains OF
Tennessee.
KNOXVILLE, Aug. 19.-Another story
of yesterdays fight at Coal Creek is te
the effect that 12 miners were killed and
90 wounded. An attack by the miners
was made, with 300 men against 100
troops. A return fire was ordered by
General Anderson, and a blaze from
every side of the fort belched out. Some
were killed outright and many wounded.
At the stockade thew stopped and the
men clambered over the walls to release
| the convicts. The fort is some distance
from the stockade and higher up. The
doors and entrances were thrown open
and the mlDers were at last In possession %
They began to order the coDvicts 10
leave, and had them ali captured when
General Anderson assem- ble6 all bis SOL
ders at the side the miners were Oh, and,
moving a bowitZer 10 that side, began to
lombard them. The miners stopped in
their work OF releasing the convicts, and
turned to get out of the way of the heavy
fusIade of bullets. Again and again
their leaders begged them 20 fight, but
they rushed down the hill to escape the
furious onslaught of the soldiers. With a
never halt and never rally gait, they
reached the bottom OF the hill, bearing
l2 dead and more than 90 wounded
miners with them. They hurried tar out
of sight and reach of the guns Thew
then collected their shattered and wound
ed forces 1t is feared more than so are
wounded, and more are dead than re-
ported.
A train bearing the Springfield rifles
and troops from Nashville arrived at II
O'Clock and were joined by 200 citizens
from here and started for Coal Creek.

In Early Days.

During these days, when items are
scarce, it is interesting to listen to the ex-
perieuce of pioneers, who came to Oregon in
early days. Such was our privilege this
morning, and Justice Schultz, who now
wears the judicial ermine, was at the mouth
of the Columbia In 1853, as first mate OF
bark from New York. The destination was
St. Helens, where was located saw mill,
and the craft was to load lumber. For
twenty-one days the, captain kept outnde
the bar, afraid to enter the river, and no
pilot showed himself, although the dag was
hoisted daily. During all this time An
Oregon mist fell, and from the captain to
the cook all were disgusted with the cli-
mate. The helm was changed, and the
bark called for another port TO receive her
cargo. Mr.. Edwin Crate. ST., was present
during tie conversation, and when the year
was mentioned said be was here long before
that. for he made the overland trip 10 1887,
and landed at The Dailes. then sn Indian
village. IN the fall Of that year. At that
time there was no Portland, no Oregon City,
and Fort Vancouver was beng built.
