Craig does not say that the victims made any

The train pulled out. and was approaching
the long bridge from EliZabethport when

and IL was p:15 when the train reached Bay
onne. The train was obliged TO take siding
there. The crew OF Central freight train
which passed stoned the detectives. Several
OF them we're struck. The LehiRh train start
ed up again, but had gone only short dis
lance when the engine broke down, Then a
crowd gathered around and scared the de-
tectives and the train crew badly; The LehiRh
train remained in the same place for four
hours. and during that time the crew and the
detectives were assaulted by the crews OF
every Central train that passed. according to
their story The train arrived in jersey City
about 3 A. NJ. with the crew and detectives all
alive.

The ruling government of Hawai-,
the principal one of the Sandwich isl
ands, has been overthrown, and the
revolutionists have appointed COM
mit.ee to visit this country for the
purpose of annexation. There is q
rule of right and justice, applicable
even to peaceable Kanaka, which a
strong government like the United
States should respect, and this will
forbid making these islands depend
ency of the republic. We have more
territory now than we can govern, aid
we want no more barbarians added to
our population. If the interests of
Americans are jeopardized at Homo
lulu, they Should be protected by our
navy; but let the Kauakas govern
themselves suitable to their own ideas.
The citizens of the United States are
simply foreigners in that country, and
We should apply some of our TRADES
about the curse of immigration to our
own people in Hawaii. Not satisfied
with going there and making prlncely
fortunes, our citizens revolution;ze the
existing form of government, and then
appeal to Washington City to absorb
the few acres and the ignorant and
miserable natives.

Before the session of the legislature
we noted the fact that The Dalles
portage bill had the unqualified en-
dorsement of nearly every paper in
Eastern Oregon, and we desire them
to express their opinion of the action
of the senate in defeating the measure.
Here is what the East Oregoniaaa
says: "Each citizen of Eastern Ore
gon personally acquainted with men,
bers of the legislature should write
letters to each of them, before Raley's
portage railway bill comes up again,
demanding and imploring the passage
of the bill and the opening of the
river. The increase in the value of
property tributary to the river would
provide the state with a tax fund
which would more than meet the IN
terest on the 100000 required to
make the Improvement. Eastern Ore
gon people are entitled to AN open
river, and the legislature which fails
to provide it is an enemy of the peo-
pie. of the state, of progress and of
freedom"
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1893-02-04

The Baker City Democrat says:
"The failure of the passage of Raley's
portage railway bill is direct blow to
Eastern Oregon and positively shows
the intent of Portland's antagonism
to the advancement of the interests of
Eastern Oregon. The sooner Eastern
Oregon withholds its patronage of
whatever nature from Portland the
sooner its rights will be recognized" "
If the Democrat desire to place the
blame for the defeat of the Raley port
age bill where it rightfully belongs it
will turn its attention to DIR. Dodson,
8 member of the senate from Baker
county, and read the "rio. act" to him
in very plain language. Three mem
hers from Multnomah county voted for
the bill and only one against, while
every member from the other Willam-
cite counties opposed the measure.
We believe in giving Portland her
just deserts, and in the matter of an
open river Eastern Oregon has many
friends in the metropolis.
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1893-02-04

The reconsideration of the vote by
which the portage bill was defeated
furnishes an opportunity for frien1s Of
the measure to bring pressure to bear
on the members of the senate that
may result in its final passage. There
are several bills now before the legis-
lature in which the members from the
Willamette counties are directly inter
,ested, and the friends of the portage
road should refuse to support any Of
these until they have their positive
pledge to vote for Raley's measure.
We do not favor flibustering tactics
under ordinary circumstances, but the
action of the. seventeen who defeated
the portage was so inexcusable that they
become merisorious. Appropriations
will be needed for the university,
penitentiary, insane asylum, reform
school, purchase of the locks at Ore
gon City and other objects. and the
representatives. from east of the Cas-
cade mountains should refuse to vote
for either of these unless support is
pledged to the portage road. By pur-
suing this policy Eastern Oregon may
yet receive what she is justly entitled
to and what she intensely desires, and
with this object In view any tactics
are excusable.

The cold in Japan is intense. In some

At Hosolri two houses were chrushed

The bill Introduced by Mr.. Denny,
of Portland, providing for commun-
ity of property interests between hus-
band and wife, should become law.
for it abolishes the old com mon-law
idea of the supremacy of the male in
all matters terrestrial. If the wife
earns property, it should be hers, as
much as if she were not married, and
the same is true of the husband. The
old barbarous idea of woman being
subject to the man has become obso-
iete, and especially is this true in
many instances where the pro1igate
husband squanders the earnings
of both and frequently leaves the
mother penniless to support family
of dependent children. A new regime
in such matters will work no hardship
on any in the marriage relation, and,
perhaps, will induce both parties to
the contract to exercise more economy
in expenditures for luxuries for the
appetite or for fashionable headwear
Or dresses.

Murder and Mob Law.

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 2-The follow
ing are the particulars of the double muir
der and quadruple lynching, mentioned
briefly in these dispatches last night:
A Radcliffe and Ben Shortrldge, coun-
try merchants, came to Richmond to buy
goods. On their return trip they camped
with their wagons for the night. Yes
terday morning their bodies we're found
covered with blood, having evidently
been murdered for the purpose OF rob
berry. Suspicion fell On four negroes,
and searching parties at once started out.
The first of the negroes, Jerry Brown,
was arrested, and after satisfactory evil
dence of his guilt was obtained he was
strung up.
Later in the day Spencer Branch, John
johnson and Sam Ellerson were captured
and the officers started by a roundabout
way TO the courthouse. The neighbors
OF the murdered men, learning of the
fact, organized, overlook them, took the
prisoners from the officers, and swung
them to tree.
The mob is said to be pursuing two
other negroes.
