Erfck,s AssaiIant.

Cairo. H.. Times. Considerable in
terest in the attempted assassination of
Frick was revived here this afternoon
by the publication that Bergmann is
really Hermann j. Orwartz. Orwartz
was an eccentric Russian Jew, who
came here from Chicago, small in stat
ure, with all irascible temper that kept
the Office in trouble for two weeks. He.
had a swarthy complexion, black hair
that hung in a mass of curis, wearing
Prince Albert coat and very dirty
shirt. He smoked cigarettes constantly
and claimed that he had once been BAN
ished to Siberia for political offenses.
He also claimed to have been officially
honored for conspicuous bravery at the
time of the yellow fever epidemic in
Jacksonville, Fla, and in proof of this
exhibited "a red cross medal and di-
ploma signed by Clara Barton. He
was an avowed nihilist and his descrip
ton and that of Frick's assailant are
almost identical.

rhe Niger i'm the woodpile.

Ochoco Review. This begins to look
as if the hope of the people of the Inland
Empire for an open Columbia river was
to be blighsed, or at least that several
years may be required before the gov
ernment can determine just what is to
be done before contract will or can be
let. It is certainly an unfortunate af-
fair to have work on this great and much
needed public improvement suspended
for even day. And it is disheartening
to think that the men who framed and
passed the river and harbor bill did not
know enough to plainly state the facts
SO that the secretary of war and his
sable" corps of engineers could under
stand the meaning of the appropriation,
and the provisions for letting the work
by contract. There have been so many
bitches about the improvements at the
cascades that people generally have for
long time been thinking that there was
a 'nigger in the woodpile" somewhere,
and that some of the so-called friends of
opening the river are insincere, and are
not working for the removing of the OBJ
structions to navigation of the river,
but to detain the work as much as pos
sible, and thereby advance the interests
of the railroad company which now al
most has a monopoly of the carrying
trade down the Columbia.

There is no doubt but the machine shops

the bulk of the shipping will be done

on Astoria cannot be determined, but if
there is no hitch in the programme the

Law Grim. is Not Matter of
Grave Doubt.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE whole United
States is more or less directly interested
in the now celebrated Garfield Park
case. The decision of Judge Baker
amounts to this: "Pool-selling, book
making, or in other words betting ON
horse races is gambling. The anluse-
ment licenses of the city all provide that
no gambling shall be allowed in the
places licensed. Therefore, betting ON
races being gambling, the mayor cannot
Issue license for an amusement where
admittedly gambling is to be carried on.
Upon this ground the mandamus asked
tor by the Garfield Park club is refused.
The court declined to pass upon the
censtitutionality of the statute of 1887.
The statute prohibits pool-selling and
book-making in general, but by pro-
vision tackled on at the end excerpts from
the prohibition fair and race-track in
closures during the time of the meeting
of the association operating the same.
But while the court did not declare the
law unconstitutional it held that the law
did not repeal the criminal code wherein
is forbidden gambling, which, according
to Judge Baker, embraces betting on
horse races. In the absence of proof to
the contrary the court assumes the law
of 1887 to be. constitutional.
This leaves open the really vital ques-
ton Did the legislature have right to
license gamblers within race track en-
closures under any circumstances and
conditions? If horse-race gambling is a
common-law CRIME, as are murder and
theft, the legislature did not have that
power. That herse-race gambling is a
common-law crime is not matter of
grave doubt. But there was no issue
before the court which involved the
question ofwhether pool-selling is
crime. Therefore there was no express
decision ON this point. It is now pro-
posed to have test case which will de-
termine this question. This legal con-
tention is perhaps well enough. The
law needs adjudication. But it is to
the discredit of the mayor that, with
law and ordinances on his side, he per-
mits the Garfield park track to remain
in operation. The policy of Mayor
Washburne is to let the place run and
see if the law is strong enough to close
it. courageous mayor would shut
up the place and let the gamblers hunt
for authority to reopen it.

sauIishnry,a POLICY.

Oregonian. Lord Salisbury has the
courage to meet a hostile majority in
Parliament, but not to proceed with
legislation in lace of it. His failure to.
resign probably means that he wants to
force Gladstone to take the initiative by
an attack upon the government. He
may think such an attack will betray
the weakness of the heterogeneous and
disorganjzed force, with which Gladstone
must work, more fully than negative
opposition to a government measure.

NOT BOOM FOR GENERAL WEAVER
Matters are shifting Around to Proper
appreciation of the Mass of
voters.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1l.-Adolph Frazer,
the centrals figure in the organization of
the peoples party, has returned from
Alabama where he took an active part
in the late contest. He says the hopes
of destroying either old party are wan
ming. To an Inter-Ocean interviewer he
said: The result of the election in Ala
bama is far from encouraging to the
peoples party, and it gives a particular
ly sharp setback to Gov. Buchanan of
Tennessee. The governor had with
drawn from the contest for the demo-
cratic nomination, leaving the field clear
for Peter B. Turney, but it was under
stood that he would make an independ-
ent race, with the enlargement of the
peoples party, in which event the state
could scarcely be kept in the democratic
column. The overwhelming defeat of
Mr.. Kolb in Alabama, however, may
give Gov Buchanan pause. He will
think twice before venturing upon race
which may end in crushing disaster.
And If the Alabama failure of the peo-
ples party shall serve to damp the en-
.thusiasm of GOV. Buchanan in Tennessee
will it not equally and in similar way
affect the dissentient democrats in the
other southern states? Will it not tend
to check defections and encourage
wayering members of the new party to
return and renew allegiance to the old
organization? The Alabama election
was certainly not boom for Weaver.
The McCook tribune., 1892-10-07

The veterans carried away from
Washington the most enthusiastic
impressions of the Harrison ad-
ministration. First, the presi-
dents touching sentiments in his
letter Of acceptance; next his sad
letter Of regret; then the tender
ness and the noble welcome of the
vice-president all to the coordinate
branches Of the government; then
the opening Of the White House
without regard to hours, the COR
dial welcome Of the presidents
commissioners of the district, and
their care for SO many thousands
in the chool-houses; and, lastly,
the splendid decorators Of the great
executive buildings-all these
impressed the truth on the minds
and hearts of the veterans that
this, in a peculiar sense, is a
soldiers administration. And,
doubtless, to every one of them
came the reflection that the
democrats have nothing-absolute-
l!y nothing ng-with which to
parallel this inestimable element
Of Republican strength.

AN unidentified exchange brings
to this Office the following on the
subject of "McKeighan, the state
slanderer::"
In the Republican valley, Nc
Keighan's district, homeseekers
are coming in by the hundreds,
into every county and buying up
the farm land at $40 to SIS per
acre. They are coming from
Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Wis
consin, against the advertisements
of McKeighan, that his farmer
constituency were Oh their way to
the poor house. Looking over
his record as an agitator for the
past twelve years can he now
point to any word or utterance of
his that has induced any home
seeker to come to this state!
Will he now have the audacity to
claim any part Of the splendid
progress of his district? Has he
ever been instrumental I'D advanc-
ing the value of any poor mans
home? Let the Republican valley
stand up for Nebraska and re-
pudiate McKeighan.

Mrs. LEASE SAYS:

Mrs. LEASE says: ''The spirit
of lawlessness evoked and foster
ed by the organized democracy of
the towns and cities Of the south
has become so intolerant that it
demands the attention of law abid-
ing, God-fearing people every
where. Free speech and fair
count of the ballot are arrogantly
and openly denied. Within the
past few days the southern chivalry
Of Georgia in the democratic clubs
of Waycross, Albany and Macon
resorted to mob violence, and in
cited and encouraged by the demo-
cratic press of the state indulged
in hoodlumism and vile language
and conduct that would put to
shame the natives of an uncivil-
lied community"

Some idea of the advantages of

SOME idea of the advantages OF
advertising may be had from the
fact that the train loaded with
Nebraska products, which is now
on its way east, is attracting the
attention of thousands of people in
every town where it stops. 1t ap-
pears that in the little village of
Oneida in Illinois over 400 people
have immigrated to Nebraska
during the past year in conse-
quence of having seen the exhibits
Of our advertising train last fall.
In another small Illinois town $40
excursion tickets to Nebraska, were
sold during the past year as a
direct result OF this form of adver-
tising. The plan of running this
years advertising train over the
same route taken last year is
certainly a wise one, for it will
confirm and emphasize the favor
able impressions already made up
on the minds of many who contem-
plate seeking new homes. They
will see an exhibit much larger
and more diversified than that of
last year, and will be impressed
with the fact that the resources of
this state are only just beginning
to be developed. Large results
may be confidently expected from
this advertising exhibit. Bee.

REPORTS from various parts of
Nebraska show that the farmers of
this state are giving more atten-
ton than ever before to winter
wheat. It has been clearly
demonstrated by recent experience
that this state can produce as
much wheat to the acre as other
states in which this cereal is the
sole dependence of the farmer.
Although corn is acknowledged to
be the king in this state, it is
gratifying to note that wheat, the
greatest staple the world over, can
be produced in Nebraska as easily
as elsewhere. 4 prominent citi-
zen of this state, who has given a
great deal of attention to this sub
iect, says that there is no reason
why Nebraska should not raise
10O,000,0O0 bushels of wheat
yearly instead of the present pro-
duct of Is, 100000 bushels. Re-
ports published from time to time
in this paper show that the wheat
product ranges from twenty-five
t. forty bushels to the acre. In
this state rs III others, the princi
pie of crop rotation will sooner or
.a,er be- adopted. DR.. Miller says
that the c,cr that is paying off
mortgages il this state today is
wheat, and that there is vast
amount of land in Nebraska that
is particularly adapted to this
cereal. 1t is gratifying to note
that the Worlds fair commission
ers Of this state are preparing to
make a great wheat exhibit.
Samples Of wheat will be shown
from fields yielding forty bushels
to the acre, and the quality of the
grain will be of the best. 'The
state Of Nebraska" says DR.. Mil
ler, ''is garden spot, and there is
no reason why it should not be one
of the richest states in the union"
Intelligent farming is needed, and
in few years it will be seen that
the state of Nebraska is by no
means dependent upon her great
corn production. The teachings of
experience will be needed and the
capabilities Of the state will be
developed from year to year in ac-
cordance with the development of
diversified agriculture. "There
never was another spot on earth, -
says DR.. Miller, "where God
smiled SO generously with sun and
rain as he does here, and man
on one of these farms, if he has
any energy at all, will continue to
grow rich in spite of himself

GENERAL DANIEL SICKLEs O

GENERAL DANIEL SICKLEs OF
New York, democrat who cannot
support Cleveland, says that in
1888 he stumped his state in be-
half of Mr. Cleveland and found
the soldiers almost unanimously
opposed to him. He believes that
the old veterans have not changed
their minds and that they will
keep the pension record of the
democratic candidate in mind
when they go to the polls. Mr..
Cleveland has shown that he looks
upon the union veterans with con-
tempt and regards the pension
system as mere system of aims
giving. His pension voters are
full Of contemptuous and sarcastic
illusions to the defenders of the
country who were fighting for the
flag while he was paying a substi-
tute.-Bee.

Harrison commercial travelling
mems clubs, made a bitter attack
upon the commercial traveller"
in a recent issue, calling them
''hobos,' ''bums,' ''paid pimps, y

names. The fact is, there is not
a band of more sensible, decent
and more intelligent men in the
country than these CONNER cial
travellers. In this respect they have
made wonderful improvement in
the past few years. And they are
