Hon. G. NJ. Irwln's Speech.

The speech Saturday night by Hon. T..
Nj. Irwin was one of the best delivered
during the campaign. He is a logical
debater, and went over the whole ground
covered ID the canvas with convincing
arguments. Protection was explained so
thoroughly that any school boy could un-
derstand it, and the arguments produced
were of the most convincing kind. On the
monetary question he was thorough, and
the state banking system advocated by
Democrats was shown to be fallacous by
apt illustrations of the wild cat banking
system formerly in operation before the war;
Throughout the entire address the strictest
attention was paid, and frequently his re-
marks were applauded. The speech was
highly complimented by all present, as
being thorough and critical presentation
of the issues in the campaign, and devoid of
anything which would have the least ten
dency towards sophistry or duplicity. Mr..
Irwin made many friends in the city, who
will be glad to hear him on any future oc.
casion,

desperate conflict with band of Indians in
September. 1866. He was messenger for
Wells, Fargo s. Co, and was guarding the
company's treasure box which was being
carried by stage from Canyon City to The
Dal!es. H. II. Wheeler was driver of the
coach and it was near Alkali Flat. There
were DO passengers and the two were slowly
Jogging along very hilly portion of the
road, when suddenly sixteen Indians on
horseback made a dash for the coach, firing
as they approached. Paige sprang to the
ground and single.handed engaged the saw
ages. So rapid and effective was his fire
that three of the Indians fell from their
horses and the remainder scattered in fight.
But thev soon rallied and surrounded the
doomed stage. Meantime Wheeler received
bullet near the corner of his mouth which
passed entirely through his cheeks. 1t was
impossible to drive faster than walk, so
rough was the road, SO Paige and Wheel,r
unhitched the two lead horses, mounted
them and left the scene to the mercy of the
Indians. Amidst volley of bullets they
escaped to the nearest station and thence to
The Dalles.
Paige was well known throughout the
northwest in those days as cool-headed
man who knew no fear and who was always
equal to an emergency. In October imme-
dlately following the event Governor Woods
made this occurrence the subject of a special
message to the legislature.
Mr. Paige is living in Eastern Oregon
now, but he leads quiet and secluded life
and refuses to talk of his brave actions or

On the Trail.
Fos sill Journal.

Deputy Sheriff Morgan, CT Portland,
and Sheriff Leslie, of Sherman county,
were in town Sunday last looking for
murderer Wolf There is now little DOUBT
that they are on the light track. Morgan
traced his man over the Barlow route 10
stopping place on the summit where
Wolf tayed over night and paid his lcdg-
ing with an order of rs cents on one of
party of hunters, who, he said, were
coming along that way, signing the order
"George Smith," Wolf had q peculiar
way of making his capital letters, also
his figures, and Morgan having secured a
sample of the murderer's handwriting, in
Portland, compared it with the order and
found them to tally in every particular.
Wolf stole stud horse belonging to Jas.
Abbott, of Tygh Ridge, and mounted
bareback on this steed he passed through
Moro and Grass Valley. He crossed the
John Day at Esau, where he discarded
the horse and struck across the country
afoot, crossing Ferry Canyon and Thirty
mile, without touching at Condor. He
reached MayviIle on the morning of Sat-
urday, October 22d, and purchased box
of ssrdines there upon which he break
tasted. He came on to Fossil the same
day, and dined here on box of sardines.
He stayed about an hour in Anderton's
saloon, speaking to no one, and several
men who scanned him closely while In
the saloon have, since seeing the photo
and description sent out by Sheriff Kelly,
recognized him as the original. They all
agree on the resemblance, which is close
except that Wolf looks thinner in the face
than his picture, which he naturally
would after ten days of hardship and
brooding over his crime. He inquired
the way to Mitchell of Charles Branson,
and announced his intention of going to
that place. He ate dinner at George
Hamilton's, at the head of Pine Creek,
and that was the last seen of him. Sher-
ifs Leslie and Morgan followed the trall
as far as Mr.. Hamilton's, reaching there
one week later than the murderer. The
officers went on to Mitchell and ascer-
tanned that the fugitive had not been
seen in that locality, whereupon they re-
traced their steps and yesterday were
securing the Haystack country. They |
are confident that they are after the right |
man, and think he Is hiding somewhere
along the rough banks of the river.
Wolf appeared to be sick when In Fossil.
and Sheriff Leslie is OF opinion that he Is
by this time too ill to travel.

regards Democratic free-trade being in har.
mohy with Euglands policy it is only me-
cessary to refer to the editorials in all the
leading papers In Great Britain endorsing
the plank in the Chicago platform and
wishing success to the Democratic party.
He said that home consumption of products
was illustrated by an old.fashloned family
of ten consuming $50 bushels of grain raised
on the fathers farm, and that he rear
enough more children to eat up the remain
ing so of his 1000 bushel harvest This
requires no answer whatever, for the Illus
tration Is not In the least applicable to the
doctrine OF home markets as advocated by
the Republican party. If the Dailes had
factories-except the old shoe factory at
North Dalles-be would be in favor
of the theory that producers would
find better market here for vegeta-
bies, eggs and butter than elsewhere;
bvt as he never expected to see any manu-
acturing industries in this city ne could see
no benefit in protection In this community.
The judge knows that there are 65, 600, 900
people IN the United States, and only about
1000 at The Dilles, and that the benefit to
the many should be higher consideration
than benefit 20 the faw; that in the state of
Oregon there are neariy 400, 900, and there
are many ind s'ries 10 operation which are
interested in otectian; that 10 few years
there is good reason to believe there will be
factories here which, according to his idea,
will b, largely concerned in the tariff, and
also that the millions of pounds of wool
handled every season at our warehouses are
affected by the duty on imported wcols. The
judge implied that he was protectionist,
and we have no doubt he is; bat he has to
keep in hue this year with the Chicago
platform.
While we believe in giving proper weight
to all opposing arguments, we cannot con.
ceiye how any man could feel himself
strengthened In British free trade by the
speeches made last night. There was
remarkable lack of facts or figures, and as
these gentlemen are able exponents of Dem
ocratic doctrines, we are warranted in stat
ing that the party has no solid position with
thinking men IN this campaign,

From Saturdays Daily.
The court house was full last night to
listen to Democratic speeches, and some en-.
thusiasm was manifested. Several tunes
were played by The Dslles band, and this
had the effect of instilling degree of cour-
age into the hearts of respondent Demo
Gratis.
The first speaker was Judge O'Day, who
is a fluent talker, and had many humorous
anecdotes to relate. He acknowledged the
country was prosperous; but considered it
due to the bene6cence of God Almighty and
the manhood of American men and woman.
hood of American women. The Mckinley
bill had nothing tc to with it. From this one
would infer that the judge considered it
not matter of any Importance who was

deal kindly with the people while American

mained the same, and the Democratic talk
about plutocracy and the robber-tariff is all
bosh.
Judge Bennett was then introduced, and
after few PREDATORY remarks said it was
not to be presumed that 10000. 900 citizens
would be willing to turn over the country
to Great Britain. He was little mistaken
in his figures, because there were only
1884, ,937 votes cast in 1883, Of which
Cleveland received 5.538, 42l, and we do
not believe that 100000 Democrats have
been made every year since that date. As

The Election.

The Dalles does not present such a scene
of intenss excitement to-day as if full lis,
of state and county officials were voted for
at the same time as the president of the
United States; but last June our electors
expressed their choice for these minor Off
cials. and to-day they exercise the right OF
suffrage for electors of the chief executive
of the nation. For this reason the contest
is rid of that personal preferences foc neigh.
bors and friends which animates state,
county aud municipal elections.
The day opened pleasant and agreeable,
and citizens began to congregate on street
corners and the polling places at an early
hour. As soon as the booths were put in
position and the polls opened few cast
their ballots, aud this continued until the
afternoon, when clerks were kept busy reg
istering names.
Democrats did not work with the same
ardor as formerly, and on the faces of many
were seen the same expression as we would
picture ON the countenance of one in the
ranks of a for'orn hope. Some said Weaver
is bitter pill; but if Cleve and Steve can
be elected by such dose, we suppose we
must shut our eyes and gulp it down. But
these were few, and large majority indl-
Gated that desolate condition where "Hope
deferred maketh the heart sick" One
Democrat on being told that Harrison would
be elected said he hoped SO; but talked diff
ferently. We expect he voted in unison
with his hopes.
The Populists were joviaI and active, and
said that as they had captured the Demo
cratic party without an effort they thought
they could get an inroad INTO the serried
ranks of the Republicans. Some of their
speakers oc cupied street corners, and har-
angued crowds in favor of fiat money. Their
mission was with Repubs. and Prohis., but
the Dems. were theirs, according to Harrity
and Murphy.
At o'clock the vote stood in the differ
ent precincts: Bigelow, 200; Trevitt, 220;
East Dalles, 1874; West Dalles, 70. Total,
767. By the time the polls closed this was
increased, perhaps to 900. This shows
light vote. and can be accounted for because
of the apathy of Democrats, who mani.
tested little interest and did little work.
Republicans were active, and every vote
was counted.
Tonight the center of interest will be at
the Umatllla House, where bulletins will be
received every half.hour, and they will un-
be joyful for Republicans.

d PURE BALLOT.
From Tuesdays Daily.

Over 100000 votes haye been
cast to-day in the United States for
the different candidates for president,
and before this hour the decision has
been made as to who shall occupy the
executive chair for the next four
years. If the ballot were the honest
expression Of each Individual elector
the result to-day would also decide
whether the greater number of Ameri
can citizens endorse the policy of the
Republican party, the free-trade ten
denotes of Democracy, the wild notions
of the Populists, or the total inhlbi-
tion of the liquor traffic as advocated
by the Prohibitionists; but under the
electoral college system, with the sway
of unscrupulous politicians, who have
reduced the manipulation of politics
almost to an exact science, universal
suffrage does not accomplish the end
desired. With che Australian ballot
system in operation in almost every
state, an election approaches more
nearly the object intended by the
trainers of the constitution than by
the old plan, when every boisterous
rowdy was granted the same rights to
swagger and swear around the polling
places as he who exercised the privi-
of the elective franchise intelligently,
conscientiously and for patriotic pur-
poses. But while all must acknowl-
edge the advancement made in our
plan of voting, the fact Is still appar-
ent that perfection has not yet been
reached. Perhaps it is too utopian
for man of practical sense to believe
that in the history of free institutions
that golden age will ever dawn upon
this or any other country when the ex
ercise of sovereignty by the people
shall be untrammelled by extraneous
influences; or, when men having self
lsh ends in view will not attempt by
every device to accomplish their pur-
pose, and this even by trampling un-
der foot the sanctity of the ballot-box
the only safeguard Of free people.
Absolute freedom and intelligence in
the expression of citizens regarding
the choice of candidates or measures
may be unattainable; but, as III art,
literature or scientific research, the
model should be that which cannot be
reached by any. Advancement has
been made, and the people of the
nineteenth century are much freer and
honester than those of the eighteenth.
May the twentieth still indicate prog
ress in these regards, and the unat-
tainable always be kept in view as
stimulus to greater efforts
