will require for the next century, and
there is enough of the article on Puget
sound to last for all time to come. The
real purpose of the scheme is to bring
about the expenditure of several million
dollars in Seattle to open up timber
preserves owned by combinations and
corporations, to create an artificial water
power, and 10 give Seattle an advantage
over the other Puget sound cities in the
way of fresh water herths for ocean craft
coming to these shores. AS we have
Paid before. the canal would not add a
bushel of wheat or pound of ore to
the wealth of the etate. and could in no
respect affect the question of freight
rates either to the seaboard or thence to
Europe. Instead it is menace to the
opening Of the Columbia river, and when
it is supported by Senator Alien that
gentleman plays dangerous game of
political chess.

Eastern Washington cannot thank her
senators or representatives for any pub
lie improvement sanctioned by the gov
eminent for this section OF the state.
Their eyes seem only TO discern the
Sound cities, and any pet or personal
scheme undertaken there is sure to have
their support, no matter whether it is
good, bad or Indifferent. For an Illus
tration we refer our readers to the per-
sistent manner i'll which they advocated
the appropriation for the lake Washing
ton canal. We detest. men who repre-
sent !. state that will labor most ener-
gesically for one part and entirely ignore
the other. Nothing will help Eastern
Washington more than the imp,uve-
ments in the navigation of the Colum bia
river being completed at once, yet when
it comes right down to whether the Col
umbia river or the lake Washington
canal should be granted an appropria-
tion, we find they stick most tenaciously
to the canal, while for the river i'm
provements they appear no more inter
ested in than ii it was a river back east.
II it was left to then, the chances are we

But, thank goodness, we have. men IN

rive, but also to Washington and Idaho.

bill, alter being in conference four days,

These were the only two things, that the
conferees refused to agree to, which is tc

the vicinity of Milwaukee. Clackamas

supposedly by tramp, but of whom no
clew has yet been obtained, although
the whole neighoorhood is searching ),
armed. and determined upon lynching.
Several burgIaries have been commit
ted recently in Corvallis and considera-
BILE cash and clothing have been stolen,
but the climax was reached last night,
when someone brokeinto the bedroom
of Carl Strage, a bachelor, and almost
killed him by beating him over the head
with club. Strage lived all alone and
had about $500 in the house at the time
The burglars evidently knew this, and it
is supposed they slipped into the house
and knocked him senseless while lying
in bed before making y search for the
money, which they were unsuccessful in
finding. Strage was found in barn
this morning in his night clothing, al
most demented. His face was lacerated
and swollen so badly that no one recog-
nized him, and it was several hours be-
fore his identity was revealed. He is
now lying in a critical condition. The
citizens are very indignant, but no clue
to the guilty parties, can be found.
LATER.-The murderer of little Mamie
Walsh, referred to in the dispatches;
has been captured, and is in Hillsboro
Jail. He confessed the crime, He gave
his name as Sullivan. It. will require
great caution to prevent the people from
| lynchjng him.

WE make no war on Mr.. Byrns be-
cause we happen to have candidate
from Iron county for Congress. We
are opposing Mr.. Byrns for the reason
that he willingly violated a trust i'm
posed in him by a confiding people.
The action of Mr.. Byrns and like men,
bers.in Congress, in refusing to vote for
Mills for Speaker, has placed the party
in the attitude of straddling on the tar
iff. If Mr.. Byrns and these other Crisp
voting representatives had done their
duty, Mills could now be Speaker, tar
iff reform in able hands in the lower
house, and our position on that ques-
ton so plainly and meffably marked
out, that We could fight this campaign
from an offensive rather than defensive
standpoint. Mr.. Byrns must make way
for man in sympathy with the pur-
poses of Democracy.

w. j. CAMPBELL, of Illinois, has been
chosen to succeed J. S. Clarkson, of
Iowa, as chairman of the National Re-
publican Executive Committee. Mr..
Campbell is proper person to conduct
a Republican campaign. For years he
has been the hired attorney of the
Armour Meat Trust, and has never at
tanned any prominence except as cor
poration attorney and lobbyist. Itmay
be mentioned that Campbell is a man
after the Presidents heart, and was
chosen to conduct the campaign by Ben.
himself. Quay and Clarkson dived
deep into corruption to elect Harrison
four years ago. but that individual,
approving and abetting in their dis
reputable methods at the time, has
never since lost an opportunity to
slight and heap indignity on them.
Among the practices of these two emf
nent Republican individuals in 1888,
were those Of robbery and bribery;
from all accounts the new chairman,
Mr.. Cambell, will prove worthy suc-
cessOr.

'.Sam Byrns has made us good and
faithful representative. He is favor
tie with the farmers and laboring men.
We are truly glad to know this for a
fact. There are some people unreas-
enable enough to assert that Sam wasn't
as faithful as he might have been when
he ignored the wishes of his constituents
on the Speakership; and we feared that
some of your hard-headed laborers
would take amiss his laudable efforts
against the Ubiquitous Weekly Pay Bill
We repeat it, we are glad-O, so glad
to know that the Fdir-Piay knows that
Sam Byrns in doing these things made

Questions for Mr.. Byrns to Answer

On May 25th Mr.. Byrns writes that
he is mot a candidate and doesn't
want it" and on June 18th to Mr.. An
thony and to parties in Wayne that
..Barkis is within"
May not the solution be found in the
answers to the following questions?
1st. Was the change of heart owing
to the number of candidates announced,
causing him to believe he could get it
easier than he could against one OPP
ponent?
I'd. Was the change of front pre-
meditated and predetermined from the
beginning?
Sd. Was his change of front caused by
a desire to hold jefferson and Washing
ton counties in an effort to dictate who
should be nominated?
18th. Did he have an understanding
with Burks, as many think?
9Th. Did his partner bring out Fly
an, as many think?
9Th. Is he simply in it out of re-
venge, to down Mr.. Edgar, as he
has threatened?
9TH. Has he, too, like his partner,
.'two knives up each sleeve?
We commend these queries to the
of the Democrats of this
district.

THE Potosi independent lays cOnsid-
cradle stress on its assertion that Hon.
Sam. Byrns two years ago redeemed
the Tenth district from Republicanism,
and urges this as one of the chief reas-
ons why he should be given the nomi-
nation this year. The same reason
may be applied with much greater force
in favor of Mr.. Fyan of Webster coun-
ty. He redeemed the old Thirteenth
district in 1890 from the Republican
rule which had held undisputed sway
over it for six long years, while the
old Tenth had never been of pronOunc-
ed Republican tendency, but was acct
dentally Kinseyed in the general defeat
of 1888.

HEREAFTER no man, however high
he may stand in the councils of the
Democratic party, or what commission
he may hold from them, will dare to
trife with the tariff issue. Our leaders
in Congress and elsewhere have receiv-
ed their marching orders, and those
who are not enlisted for the war will
find this the only convenient point at
which they can turn aside. In mo-
ment OF timidity and strange blindness
the Committee on Resolutions was in
duced to falsify the purposes of the
party or it sought to stifie its highest
ambition, but there is no committee,
there is no organization, there is no
combination of forces or influence that

WE want to, know how any person
that is in earnest in the fight for tariff
reform can conscientiously support Mr..
Byrns for a denomination. MIR. Byrns'
vote on the Speakership helped to rel
egate Mr.. Mills, and in RELOCATING Mr..
Mills, tariff reform was given a slap in
the face. The want of action of the
present House shows conclusively the
truth of these statements.

We wonder if the people know that
Louis F. Dining, Sam Byrns' partner
and campaign manager, has, for years.
been denounccr of Cleveland, saying
..he was only a tub of CUTS" did not
deserve credit for his utterances on the
tariff, etc? Such is the case, however,
and we dare Dining to deny it. He
made use of these expressions not ten
days before Byrns voted against Mills
for speaker. Byrns' vote against Mills
showed he was against Cleveland, and
we are justified in inferring that Din
ming was merely uttering Byrns' senti-
ments when he made use of the above
expressions. We dare Dining to deny
using them. Byrns was and is against
Cleveland. Do you want him in Con-
gress? Answer. De mocrats

that popular New Yorker, whose name

even more familiar to women than to
men, w. Jennings Demorest. He is
the pattern Prohibitionist of the coun-
try. He is veteran in the cause. He
practises the cause. He has been bled
for the cause. He has made speeches
for it. He has stood up for it through
thick and thin. He has run for petty
offices in its interest. He has been
faithful to it straight along from way
back. He is, in every way, the logical
candidate. Above all, he is New

rivals for the nomination, Bidwell of

of Maine, Briggs of Pennsylvania, and
Kelly of Tennessee; but there is not
