a Republican rrick.

Topeka, Feb. 20.-Governor LEVEL
ling this afternoon gave to the Asso-
ciated Press an official statement in
writing regarding the late unpleasant
ness. He says the republicans boast of
having carried the fight. The fact is,
the populists have never lost sight of
the central idea in the contest-the
preservation of the populist house. It
was to destroy this house the republic
cans made the fight, and failed. Had
they succeeded, it would haye thwarted
all reform legislation. They know the
laws passed by it are valid; that to de-
clare otherwise the supreme court would
have to revise all respectable precedents
at a partisan demand and face wave of
public indignation unparalleled since
the notorious Judge Trescilian was fol-
lowed to the scaffold by an outraged
people who exulted at his just but
shocking execution. Corporate greed
was determined to prevent the enact
ment of reform measures by the popu-
lists. The governor then goes on to
enumerate the acts of the republican
house intended to extinguish the house
of populists, beginning with the at
tempted arrest of its chief clerk and to be
followed by the arrest of enough popu-
list members to break the quorum.
This, he adds, did not succeed, and,
though the republicans succeeded in
compromise in driving the populists
from the hall, their organization is still
intact. Even this was brought about
through the disloyalty of the state
militia and the county sheriff. He de-
clared thatthe militia has been recruited
and doctered to this end for two years.
Unmasking the republican treason, per-
jury and lawlessness richly compensates
the popuIists for all the indignities
suffered

THE VILLAIN MAKES HIS ESCAPE
A Forloru Lover Who Wanted to Conn
mit Suicide Because His Girl
Would Not Marry Him.

SAN JOSH, Cal. Feb. 2o.-A cold
blooded murder took place at Wright's
last night shortly after 6 o'clock. The
trouble arose at stable occupied by the
Southern Pacific Company for keeping
teams which are working on large slide
at the tunnel there. J. II. Roth was at
the stable putting up his horse after his
days work, when j. w. Frost, the MUIR
derer, entered the stable, and when asked
by Roth what he wanted, remarked: ::
"None of your business" After the al
tercation had continued several minutes,
Frost produced a pocket knife and
asked Roth how he would like to have
four inches of it, showing the deadly
weapon. Before Roth could answer,
Frost plunged the deadly knife into his
throat, killing him instantly, and fed.
Frost has been employed by the South
ern Pacific company at this place. He
is still at large.

Limit Of The Cost Of PoFtlaHd's Federal
Building Increased.
NOW A. ROUND MILLION DOLLARS
1t Is Doubtful if the Amendment Can
Be Retained When the Bill
Reaches the House.

WAsHIEeToN, Feb. 20.-Senator
Mitchell was fortunate today IN getting
through an amendment to the sundrY
civil bill, increasing the limit of the cost
of the Port of Portland public buildings
from $500, 900 as it first stood, to 81 ,O00,-
600. It will, of course, take hard fight
to keep the house from cutting out this
amendment, as the economists there
will do all in their power to prevent the
increase. Senator Mitchell's amend
ment also appropriates $25, ,OeO in addi-
ton to the $2oO,0OO formerly appro-
priated.
Senator Squire today discovered an
error in the report of expenditures at
the Cascades, it being shown that $780,,
600 was expended in 1889, when only
$100, 900 was appropriated for that pur-
pose. 1t did not make any difference in
the aggregate, but the discovery of the
error caused great deal of chagrin in
the engineers Office.
ex-governor Ferry, of Washington,
has rendered his services to the govern
ment for any duty that may be required

Mr.. Albert Favorite, of Arkansas City,

benefit ofhis experience with colds. He
says: 81 contracted cold early last
spring that settled on my lungs, and had
hardly recovered from it when caught
another that hung on all summer and
left me with a hacking cough which i
thought never would get rid of. 1 had
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
some fourteen years ago with much sue
cess, and concluded to try it again.
When 1 got through with one bottle my
cough had left me, and 1 have not suf-
fered with cough or cold since. have
recommended it to others, and all speak
well ofit." 80 cent bottles for sale by

rhe Result OF Annexation.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-Anticipating
the ratification of the Hawaiian annex
alton treaty by both the United States
senate and the provisional government
of Hawaii, the military and naval au-
thorities are discussing what should be
done for the preservation of peace on
the islands pending the establish
ment of a permanent government. It
is realized, from the heterogeneous
character of the population of the island
and the general tendency of the native
element to revolution, that peacefully to
maintain American sovereignty over the
island there must be proper display of
military from the time annexation be-
comes an established fact, In this con-
troops of the regular army to the islands
fs being informally seriously iscussed
by many officers. The navy people, as
a rule, believe the sailors and marines
should be utilized for the purpose, but
are forced to admit that by reason of the
limited number of naval vessels at hand
it might be advisable to send several
batteries of artillery from California, to
remain at Honolulu until some of the
new vessels can be sent from this coast.
Under the permanent form Of govern
ment to be established by legislation, it
is suggested there should be standing
army organized from the inhabitants of
the islands. A number of American
officers, it has been further suggested,
should be detailed to perfect the organi-
zation, and when the United States has
established the proposed coaling station
in Pearl harbor there should be an
American garrison to defend the en-
trance to the harbor.

only Female Locomotive I'm

Only Female Locomotive Engineer.
CAIRO, w. Va, Feb. 20.-Miss Ida
Hewitt, who is said to be the only
female locomotive engineer in the world,
has been engaged by the women COM
missioners of the worlds fair to run the
first train over the grounds on the open
ing day of the exposition. She will
leave here for Chicago about week
before the opening day. She is pretty
girl, and during the first trip of the
engine will wear costume of Spanish
girl of the l4th century. In reply to q
proposition made to Miss Hewitt to be-
come q member of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, it is reported
that she replied that, while she could
not find it in her heart to become q
brother to them, she would be sister
to them as long as she lived. The COM
missioners are said to have had great
deal of trouble in inducing her to run
the engine at the fair, as she shrank
froml appearing as a sort of ssfreak."
The road upon which Miss Hewitt is
now running regularly is the Cairo &
Little Kanawana, owned mostly by the
girls father, a man of wealth. She is
popular socially, and is model house
keeper.

why "Bab" Likes Dogs.
Grant Dispatch Cor.


Between you and me, Mr.. Editor, I
think dog is a healthful companion for
almost any human being. His tasteE
are not deprayed, and he will never lead
you into any mischief. He declines go
ing into bed early, and he adores swim.
He won't sit up all night while you play
poker, but go out for ride, and see how
he'll chase after the horses heels. He
will lead you into every good sport, and
to nothing bad. But SAYS some one,
s'dogs are your fad" My dear sir, the
man or woman who doesn't like dogs is
wrong. It is as natural for human be-
ings to like dog as it is to like baby;
and a household without one or the
other-of course. any well-regulated
household has both-isn't worth belong
ing to.
I like dogs, because I know SO many
men and women.
1 like dogs, because they always sec
my virtues, and ignore my vices.
! / like dogs, because they are friends
through good report and evil report;
through poverty and through riches.
1 like dogs, because they are faithful
and generous.
like dogs, because they are full of a
certain simplicity that finds pleasure In
very little things.
How can help liking dogs2

rest him, and When he asked him where
his papers were Taylor struck him with
the gun and told him, ''There are my
papersr'

There is a movement among some of
the business men of Red Bluff to raise
money to build works for the manufact-
ure of combined harvesters. one of the
machines having just been built at the
foundry in that place. There is wisdom
in such course, for if the people of town
or city will manufacture the machinery
they require, it will keep money at home,
give employment to labor, and make
business for the merchants and trade.
This is the correct principle in all
branches, including the farmer, who
should grow everything required for his
family in the way of produce, and en-
deavor to have sCme for sale. Keep the
money at home, give labor employment
at living prices, and the people will pros

On Tuesday the Mail said of the effort
of the San Francisco merchants to re-
cover for that city her former prestige
over the commerce of the State: "Abol-
ish the interior terminals and compel all
the through traffic to end in San Fran
cisco and all the distribution to originate
there and the Traffic Association would
go out of business in day. The pioneer
conditions would be completely restored,
with the exception of such commerce as
has been diverted from San francisco to
the north and the south and which can
not be recovered any more than you can
change the law of gravitation." Yester-
day the Examiner had an editorial on the
same subject, but written from San
Francisco point of view, in which the cat
was let out of the bag thus: 1.-The ideal
state of things for San Francisco would
be to have the products of the interior
brought down to us at the lowest possible
cost and shipped from here TO all parts of
the world by sea, and the return products
brought here by sea and distributed at
low rates throughout the interior" That
is it precisely. Let San Francisco do all
the business and the rest of US perform
the part merely of producers and con-
snmers. The arrangement would suit
the metropolis first rate, but it is respect
fully submitted that San Francisco is not
the whole of California. Ii her commerce
declines and that of Stockton, for in
stance, increases (which happens to be the
fact to-day it is unfortunate for her but
suits us very well.-Stockton Mail.
