Moro Observer: On Friday last two men
travelling on horseback stopped at the house
of w. F. Guyton, of Kent, and asked to
have meal prepared for them. There was
no one in the house at the time but a young
lady and she furnished the travellers with
the desired meal. After the men had par
taken thereof ont of them handed the young
lady five dollar bill out of which TO take
pay for the refreshments, and she went into
her bedroom to procure change. The fel-
low sneaked into the room after her and
without her knowledge, and while she was
handling some silver and notes, to the
amount of $40. he suddenly snatched the
money out of her hand and he and his COM
panion skipped out. The parties are said
to have headed in the direction of Airing
ton. We have since learned that two men
are wanted by the authorities at Eugene for
stealing, and it is barely possible they are
the same men who perpetrated the robbery
at Guyton's,

Arrested For Grand Larceny.
W. W Union-Journal.


| Late Monday afternoon Deputy Sheriff
John Smails arrested John B. Wallace
| agent of the Hastle Lumber company OF
Puyallup, on warrant charging him
with the crime of grand larceny.
About the first of May, 1892, Wallace
purchased $500 worth of lumber from the
Hastie Lumber company and started a
| lumber yard in this city on the vacant
lot, corner North Fourth and Oak streets
His venture proved very successful, when
the Hastie company appointed him their
agent here. 1he company supplied Wal
lace with several carloads of lumber and
Puyallup whereby he could draw upon
them for money to settle the freight bills
on the lumber shipped to Walla Walla.
Wallace soon built up good business
and the company continued to supply him
with lumber, but during this time Wal
lace failed to send any money to the COM
pany. This state of affairs continued un-
til several weeks ago, when the lumber
company suspicioned that Wallace's man.
ner of conducting business was not alto
gether right. The bank of Puyallup then
sent an agent to this city to investigate
the matter. He arrived here several days
ago and called upon Wallace and IN
formed the gentleman as to his business.
Wallace turned the books oyer to the
agent, who made thorough examination.
He found that Wallace had disposed of
about $4,000 worth of lumber, but his
bank books failed to show what disposi-
tion had been made of the money. 1t
was also discovered that since the lst of
August no record whatever had been
made of the lumber that had been sold up
to the time the books were turned over to |
the agent of the bank. These facts were |
made known to the company and also to |
and when the latter was con-
fronted with them he was unable to ex-
PLAIN what he had done with the money, |
with the exception of about $780, which |
had been paid to men employed In the
yard to handle the lumber. This left a
balance of $1,000 due the company. When
the facts of the case were made known to
The company, they offered to compromise
with Wallace by taking mortgage on
some land owned by him on the Sound,
but he was not inclined to do so. Mr..
John Hastle, of the company, arrived in
.he city Monday and soon afterwards
'wore out warrant against Wallace, and
be was arrested and taken to Jail.

NIB. HERMARN's SPEECH.
From Wednesdays Daily.

The court house was crowded last night
to its utmost seating and standing caprcity,
and by the time the speaking began there
was no more space for listeners. Led by
The Dalles band the spea ker, accompanied
by several prominent citizens, about half
past 7 o'clock, walked to the court room,
and there several enlivening strains were
played before Mr.. Hermann took the plat
form. Oregon has never had representa-
tive in the lower house more popular than
Hon. Bineer Hermann, and when 1t was an.
nounced that he would address the citizens
of The Dalles 1t was presumed that he would
be greeted by laige and enthusiastic audi
ence.
He was introduced by Mr.. B. s. Hunt
ington, and from the beginning to the close
claimed the attention of the audience. On
the improvement of the Columbia river he
explained the difficulties that had to be
overcome before the work could be changed
to the contract system, and expressed the
hope that IN little while the commerce of
this great empire would float unobstructed
to the ocean. In the matter of the public
domain he explained how the Republican
party had stood as tine steadfast friend of
the settler. and had accomplished more in
the forfeiture of unearned land grants and
in reducing the price of these lands SO tine
minimum than any other political organiza.
tiob.
The great issue of the tariff was ably
handled by Mr.. Hermann, and he gave his
hearers substantial facts on which to base
an opinion. There Is no controverting the
fact that Republicans stand on this issue on
the only solid basis. and Democrats do not
attempt to argue against the position as
sumed.
On the financial question Mr.. Hermann
stated the position of the party in logical
manner, and gave reasons why Republicans
consider themselves as occupying the only
tepable ground. The present financial policy
had been inaugurated by the Republican
party, and it saved the nation from bank.
ruptcY wien great national debt had
threatened to eugulf it, and had placed it
on more solid basis than 1t had ever en-
joved.
Mr.. Hermann was frequently applauded,
and undoubtedly he left the audience more
firmly grounded in the principles which un-
derlie the Republican party.
