discussion it will scarcely do to
ignore those we are quoting
FROM OUR SILK DEPARTMENT.
Take, for instance, the assortment
OF China Silks we are selling at
I75c a yard. All the late shades
are to be found in the stock and
the quality tar surpasses anything
IN the past for like money. Then
again we are making a special
otter In the BroCade Silks at ST a
yard There are several other
lines equally as good in value.
In tact, we were never stronger in
the Silk Department than now.

IF there is any law in Oregon by which
the wretches can be punished who put up
two boys to hammer each other for the
amusement of the bystanders, and in
which conflict one of the boys was killed,
beaten to death, that law ought to be rig
idly applied to the case. If there is no
such law, the need for il should be speed
lily supplied. These slogging matches,
which are not boxing or sparring con-
tests in any sense, are brutalizing the
people. By familiarity with them the
conscience of the public is becoming in
sensible to their enormity and degrading
and demoralizing influence They are
so common just now that a newspaper
without the report of one or more every
morning is looked upon as wanting in
enterprise. The appetite for them is in
creasing, and we are rapidly acquiring q
taste for blood that promises to shame the
era of the gladiatorial arena.

sacredness of the elective franchise, and
as result very close watch will pres
emily be kept upon the polling places to
detect false swearing under the "illiterate
clause" and the people viii very soon de-
mand that perjury under that section
shall be severely punished.
San Francisco election tricksters who
were in this city on the Sth inst, watch
ing the workings OF the law, went away
| declaring that it ''can be beaten" under
the section under consideration. But
that conclusion must be arrived at upon
the supposition that enough voters can
be rallied to swear falsely that they cannot
read, or cannot see, or are paralyzed, etc.,
to change an election to meet the desires
of the manipulators.
But there are two sides to all questions,
and number of them to most elections.
Friends of the law and opponents of the
tricksters, and there must be some in
each precinct, else the latter would have
no need OF employing fraudulent devices,
have but to openly keep a record Of every
case of appeal to the 'illiterate section, y
and, our word for it, there will be very
little perjury committed. Men will not,
however vile, save here and there one,
for the beggarly price of vote, challenge
the chances of conviction for perjury; for
| the fact that one can read it is difficult,
if not impossible, to constantly conceal.
Two or three convictions for perjury and
| illegal voting under the law will terror
ize the vote-sellers generally, until the
Constitution is amended, as it certainly
will be.
