SACRAMENTO, CAL, Jure 27-At 80
this afternoon, at the Folsom prison, a
gang of convlcts, consisting of George
Sontag, the bandit, and Russell Williams,
Ben Wilson and Charlie Abbott, life
timers, and ten-year convict named
Dalton. suddenly seized Frank Briare,
lieutenant OF the guard, put pistol to
his head and started together to run up
the hill. Before reaching the top 1t de
veoped that they lad two Winchesters
and an additional revolver, which had
teen conc, aled among the rocks. Up to
this time the guards had been unable to
snoo,, as Briare was in the grasp of the
would-be escapers, and they were all
closely punched together so that shot
might meaa death TO him.
Just before reaching the summit of the
hill Briare jerked away and the guards
opened fire from all directions. The con
victs took to the rocks, concealed them
selves as best they could and returned
the fire as rapidly as possible. The reg
ular guard was soon reinforced by re-
serves from the prison and terrific fight
took place which lasted half su bour
After about 80 minutes one of the con-
victs held up his hat on his rifle as a
token of surrender, and Warden Aull,
Captain Murphy and few guards adj
vaDced to the convicts' stronghold. where
they found Williams. Wilson and Dalton
stretched dead on the ground. George
Sontag was badly wounded by three or
four bullets. He had one shot through
the body and two through the thigh.
Abbott was groaning with broken leg.

SOME "FOOLISH" ACTS.

It must be fact, as a Democratic
exchange says, that the nation is now
suffering for the foolishness of Repub-
lican adm lnistratlons, and this dates
back for more than thirty years. The
first "foolish" act was the suppression
of the rebellion and preservation of
the union of states; then followed the
ridiculous maintenance of the national
credit; also the silly resumption of spe-
Gle payment and the outrageous pen
sion business, as if the soldiers of the
late war were entitled to any credit.
With these may be coupled the false
notion of paying our laborers higher
wages than the paupers of Europe,
building up home industries, and put
ting tariff on foreign raw material
that come in competition with the To-
cal product. All these acts of Repub-
licans have caused the nation to suffer,
because Democracy Is forced to undo
them as far as possible. How much
better the country would have been
with human slavery firmly established
and separated into two or more con-
federcies, with greenbacks worth from
10 to 80 cents on the dollar, bond
holders paid in deprecated currency,
foreign fabrics usurplng the places of
home productions, factories idle, money
sent to Manchester and Sheffield for
goods and cutlery, and our laborers
driven out of the country to work in
England and Germany. This is the
consummation of the dream of Democ
racy, and the realization of portion
of which is causing the slight disturb
ance in money matters at present.

The Oregon Pacific is still looki,

The Oregon Pacific is still looking
towards Eastern Oregon as a possible
terminus for its railroad; but this year
it will have the financial depression as
an excuse for not fulfilling its prom
ises. There Is a good country in
Grant and Crook counties that would
furnish considerable business to the
Company if it would build the road;
but the o. P. apparently lacks the
money or enterprise to be a factor of
development. Prineville and vicinity
have anxiously desired railroad con-
nection with an available market for
wool and wheat for many years; but 1t
seems as far from realization now as
ever. The business men of The Dalles
will be forced to solve this problem for
our Crook and Grant county neigh
bors, and when our capitalists begin
movement in this direction it will not
stop until Canyon City, Prineville and
all that portion of the Inland Empire
is made tributary to this city;
but this will not be inaugurated this
year or perhaps for the next two or
three seasons.

The appalling disaster tn the Brit
ish warship Victoria, which was sunk
off Trlpoli in the Mediterranean yes
terdaY, will cause sorrow in both con-
einents. This was one of the largest
battle-shlps afoat, and was constructed
after the latest and most approved
models. The accident proves that
modern Improvements will not keep
vessels from sinking after hole has
been stove in them. The compart-
ments in the Victoria were considered
perfect; but these did not save the
lives of the seamen on board. Over
four hundred brave marines and Off
GERS, including vice-Admiral Tryon,
were drowned during peaceful ma
neuvre; when, if proper care had been
exercised, they might have lived to sup
port their country's honor and flag
against her enemies. Great Britain
will deeply deplore the loss to her
navy; but whatever may be the result
Of the investigation into the matter,
it will not restore to her navy the hun
dreds of her brave defenders and the
majestic vessel which now lie at the
bottom of the Mediterranean.

Home Rule VIII, bs Pressed.

LONDON, June 2S-Gladstoue made an
announcement in the commons today
which caused much joy among the Irish
members and those of the radical party
who believe the time has come for throw
ing out many of the amendments to the
home-ruIe bill offered by the opposition
for the purpose of delaying the passage
of the measure Gladstone stated that
tomorrow he would move the adoption of
a resolution calling upon the house to
expedite the passage of the bill. The
announcement was greeted with cheers
by the supporters of the government.
Gladstone added the terms of the resolu-
rioL were nearly perpared. and he hoped
to communicate it to the house before the
session closed. In leply to a question
asked by A. j. Baltour, leader OF the op-
position, Gladstone said the resolution be
propt SEQ to move would be on the same
princl pie as the resolution offered In 1887,
though it would contain some important
notifications.

A Fur, her Decline.

WASHINGTON, June 27-One effect OF
the action of the government of India
has been TO renew the demand for an
early session of congress. This view
was presented to Secretary Carlisle this
morning by many OF his congressional
callers and numerous kilograms from all
sections of the country. Before going TO
the cabinet Carlisle received te eYram
from London announcing a iur her de
cline IN the price OF silver to 30 pence.
At this price silver dollars are worth 53M
cents. Senator DIlph. of Oregon, the
only Pacific slope senator in the city,
said this morning:
Il am opposed to my colleagues, you
know, ON the subject or free coinage, and
am in favor of main tanning all currency
On par with gold; but it seems to me
this action of the Indian government will
demlnish. instead of increase, the pros
rect of passing a repeal OF the Sherman
law by the senate. | think the effect
viii be to make the thoughtful members
Of congress hesitate before they further
depreclate tue value of silver by suddenly
throwing upon the markets OF the world
100000 ounces of silver, equivalent to
nearly the whole American product now
purchased and in stock 10y the govern
ment l do not know that ANYTHING bet
ter than a repeal of the Sherman act can
be done to relieve the situation, but l am
fearful, repeal of that act would be dis
astrous to the finances of the government
and silver"
The senator further desired 10 correct
the published statement that be said IN
substance that Cleveland would not be
able to command the presence of con-
gressmen at the special session, and that
for himself be should not come to Wash
ington prior to September 30 He might
have said that congress should not. Oh
account of the hot weather, be convened
carrier than September 80, or that he did
not expect to be in Washington upul the
20th, but he had said nothing indicating
any opposition to Cleveland or that he
would not be on hand whenever congress
was called He would probab be
better supporter of Cleveland's tiOaDclal
measures than a majority of the demo-
cratic senators.

ANARCHY TRIUMPHS.

Gov. Altgeld, of Illinois, has par
doned the three men who were con-
demned to life imprisonment for par
ticipatlon in the Haymarket massacre
in Chicago. He alleges as the reason
for his action that the judge and jury
who tried the case were prejudiced,
and, consequently, the men were not
legally convicted If this is a fact,
then Parsons, Spies and others were
illegally hanged, and must be consid-
cred as murdered to satisfy the popu-
lar feeling. But this view of the
matter will not coincide with the judg-
ment of but few falr-mlnded men who
have heard or carefully read the evi-
dence. That the ring-leaders were
the guilty ones,and. tie one Who threw
the bomb would not have done the act
except impelled by the anarchistlc
teachings of such men as Parsons.
Schwab and Spies, few will deny; and
that the convictions were according to
well.known precedents, both in this
country and England, will be generally
admitted. From these premises it is
difficult to determine how Gov. Altgeld
arrives at his conclusions regarding
the court and jury being cen
trolled by prejudice. 1t is we'll
known fact that great danger threat
ems our government from anarchistic
influences, and if those who inclte
bomb. throwers to their diabolical mis-
chief are not amendable for their in
cendiary speeches, then Herr Most is
law abiding citizen and should be pro-
tected in what he claims as his rights.
A few more governors like the one in
Illinois would soon make free institu-
tions on very unsafe foundation.

Purchasins power of : liver.

WASHINGTON, June 29-Sscrets.y Car
isle has received numerous callers, among
whom were many members OF congress
With all these the silver question formed
the principal topic OF conversation, and
the continued decline in the price of sil-
yer was naturally referred TO. The sec
retary bad received cablegram stating
the price OF silver today In London was
6S1a cents per ounce, at which rate a
81 Yer dollar as bullion was worth SO
cents. Nevertheless the point, OF course,
was that the apparent purchasing power
of the silver dollar, with silver bullion at
$50 cents per ounce, Was as great today
as when silver was worth 81 22 per ounce
and the bullion value of silver SO cents.
1t should be equally obvious that this is
so because it is known that the credit OF
the United States is behind its 81 v. +
money, as it is behind all its other forms
of money, and without which none of
them except gold coin and gold certiti-
Gates would De worth par in the money
markets of the world. This fact was
several times emphasized at the last ses-
sion of congress when ex Secretary Sher-
man and Others repeatedly declared dur
ing the senate debates that there was in
the treasury bullion in gold to the value
OF every silver certificate issued by the
government.

To the Democratic press in Oregon
that are using every means to stop the
papers from the "bunch-grass region
bowling about free trade prices for
wool, few words only are necessary.
Restore the price of 1891 and 1892
for the clip, find market for the mill
lions of pounds of the product now
stored at The Dalles, Pendleton, Hepp-
ner and Arlington, and nothing ad-
verse will be said regarding the change
In the administration of national af-
fairs. Every Democratic orator in the
northwest promised high prices for
raw material if Cleveland was elected.
and it was to be expected that they
would be reminded of the fact if their
campaign pledges were broken. Until
the farmer can sell his produce in the
market at as high price as when Re-
publicans were in charge of affairs the
people will be the more steadfast
friends of the policy of protection.

question today that, IN his opinion, Cey-

soon to follow the example of India and
close their mints to the free coinage OF
silver. The effect on the Chinese trade,
he said, was causing much Unsuitable
anxiety. 1t might be possible to ease
the situation through the Introduc ion of
a gold standard In the Chinese treaty
ports, but in any event the bulk of about
IA crores of rupees Q40.OO0,00O) would
be thrown on China, and that ChIna's
foreign trade relations would thus be
disturbed 20 an enormous extent was
self evident.

THE SHADOW.

There has been no change of policy
by the Democratic administration
since the Inauguration of President
Cleveland; but the issues in the last
campaign were distinctly marked.
From every platform in the country
Democratic orators called protection
the "robber tariff" and predicted that
as soon as Democracy secured the
control of affairs there would be rad.
ical change. They also advocated free
coinage, and stated that their party
did not believe in one kind of money
for the poor man and another for the
rich, and that the silver dollar was
good enough for the banker and la
borer. From such utterances as these.
as well as from the platform adopted,
any reasonable man would presume
that the result of the overwhelming
victory of the Democratic party would
be the inauguration of free trade and
unlimited coinage of silver. Business

subject of discussion.
There is considerable railroad talk
in the north vest; but the times are
too depressing for many roads to be
built this season.
The Dalles will have an open river
to the sea within the next two years,
but Eastern Oregon must wait indef-
nitely before it enjoys the same privi-
lege.
The only boat on the middle river is
the one owned by the d. P. & A. Go.
This part of the Columbia is at last

Teaching Welsh.

1t takes a Welshman to talk Welsh
Few foreigners are able to pronounce the
Welsh u. The author of "Yorkshire
Folk Talk" tells an amusing story of an
Englishman's struggles to master that
difficult sound,
The Englishman had been appointed
to the Welsh see of st. David, and on
taking up his abode in Wales, engaged a
naive Welsh scholar TO give HIM iDstruc
tion in the language.
The pronunciation, and especially the
U, bothered the bishUp, and the Welsh
man was almost at his wits end to ex
plain the lingual process by which the
formidable sound was to be uttered.
At last bright thought struck him,
and being very obsequious In manner, he
thus addressed the bishop:
"Your Lordship must please to put
your episcopal tongue to the root Of your
apostolic mouth, and then hiss like a
goose"
