Tho feeling In Chicago among the Lead
f ing citizens against Gov. Altgeld, for
parj0ning the three anarchists confined bon
( the penitentarv, one for ffteon years
aud two for life, for their participation
in the Haymarket massacre in 1856, is Of
the hitterest kind. And the feeling
throughout the country is similar to that
ia Chicago. Had il even been suspected
that Gov. Altgeld would pardon the an
archisJs, if elected, he would never have
been chosen governor. u has been limited
that he is ambitious 10 scat in the
United States senate, and that bypardon-
ing the anarchists he hoped
TO strengthen himself with the anarchists
and socialists of Chicago, and other cities
of Illinois. This. however, is not a rea-
sonable explanation of his action, because
ne must have known that by releasing
the Haymari1et conyIcts he would array
against himself all who condemned the
doctrines and practices of the anarchists.
A more reasonable explanation is that he
sYnpathizcs with socialistic doctrines,
and his opinions led him to do the act for
which he is so severely condemned. He
is nota native Of this country, and it is
said that he has on occasions expressed
views that show he is not in hear
ty accord with American Institutions.
This explanation of his action is sus-
tanned by his remarks giving his reasons
for granting the pardOns He attacks the
the judge who conducted the trial of the
anarchists, and also the jurors and the
prosecuting officer. He abuses the police
who arrested the anarchists, and insists
there was a conspiracy to convict them.
If he had based his pardon on the plea
of mercy the feeling of indignation would
be less pronounced. That plea, however,
does not appear to have influenced him
in the least. He seems to have a grudge
against those who were instrumental in
having the anarchists punished.
That his act will have far-reaching
effect for evil there is no doubt Only a
day or two before the pardons were issued
the anarchists and socialists of Chicago
unveiled monument 10 those of the Hay
market anarchists who were hanged,
showing that the anarchichal spirits Wig
orous in that city. The action of thegov
ernor will have the effect of encouraging
the anarchists and socialists and of max
ing them more difficult to control
That Governor Altgeld has done not
only Chicago and Illinois, but also the
whole country AN injury will hardly be de-
denied. He has given evidence of his I'M
fitness for the high Office he holds. With
his term as governor his political career,
it is pretty safe to say, will end.

There are at several points on the
streets Of New Orleans river gauges
that show not only the height Of
the water in the river, but also
its relative height as compared with the
level of Camp street. The object is to
show citizens just how high the water
would be in the city if it were not for
the levees. Two or three days ago these
gauges showed that at the stage of the
river at that time the water would have
stood 10 feet 81 inches over the curb at
the corner of Canal end Camp streets had
the front levees failed and the back levee
remained intact. "a break in the front
leyees," said the Times Democrat at
the time, "would cover the lower story
of every house in New Orleans, if the
back levees were permitted to keep the
water confined AS the city level falls
towards the lake, the depth of water
would be increased the further out the
food went, until maximum depth of be-
tween 10 and 10 feet was reached; but
one would not have to go very far out to
find water deep enough not only for
drowning purposes, but for vessels of
considerable draft" In view of these facts
it is not to be wondered at that the people
of New Orleans believe in levees quito as
much as in life or fire insurance.

1t would be rather rough on those per
sons who have on hand considerable
stocks of Colum bian half-dollars if the
100000 now at the Philadelphia mint
should be put into circulation at their
face value. A number of persons and
firms, several newspapers among them,
bought lots of the souvenir coins at 81
each for the purpose of distributing them
among their patrons as premiums lat
cost price" If the treasury should dump
the remainder of the coins upon the
market the persons Offering these
premiums" would have to go into the
market as spectators and buy up the
coins, or they might be big loosers on what
they had previously bought.

Before the opening of the worlds fair
the directory made efforts to provide an
efficient police force for the grounds by
appealing to each of the larger cities
throughout the country to spare to the
fair half dozen or so picked policemen.
Savannah, among other cities, received
such a request. But Savannah, and a
great many others, could not spare the
men. The consequence was that, failing
to get experienced policemen, the direc-
tory was obliged to make columbian
guards" of such raw material as was to
be had. These guards have been a
source of considerable annoyance. One
of them was on the point of arresting
the Duke of Veragua not long ago, when
the mistake was happily avorted Others
of them have arrested various commits
sioners from states and foreign countries,
the instance of a foreign commissioner 5
arrest noted in the MORNING News dis
patches yesterday being only one of
many. There is no doubt that the guards
mean well, but they are simply green po-
Hcemen, carried away with the idea of
their own Importance. Had the cities
appealed to been able to lend Chicago
few policemen no such unpleasantness
would have come about.

The newspaper press of Georgia sus-
tanned a great loss in the death of Col.
William Henry Moore, of the Augusta
Evening News. He was one of the Oldest
and most earnest and versatile members
of the profession in the state, and as
man he was held in exceptionally high
regard by his friends. He was an Ala
bamian by birth, but had lived in Geor-
gia so long that the fact of his having
been born elsewhere was almost forgot
ten. His first love was the newspaper
business, before the war. After the ces-
sation of hostilities he tried the circus
business, with p. T. Barnum; but that
did not suit him, and he returned to the
pencil and scissors. During the war he
was one of Gordons best soldiers, and
that he did his duty well he bore scars to
prove. Col. Moore was the founder of
the first afternoon paper in the south, the
one in whose service he was when he
died.

Young Mays Logic
From San Francisco Wasp.

There is in Berkeley young ladies'
fraternity, called Kappa Alpha Theta.
The wicked Berkely youth, knowing no
respect, calls them the Kats-horrid
feline cognomen, suggestive of backyard
concerts. When the Kats first took their
place on the high board fraternity fence
fraternity, considering the sex, is, per-
haps, a misnomer-they became at once
the sport of the joking boys. Once, the
temple OF Vesta. otherwise the Kat
house, was even decorated as to its door
knob-with festive kine-but of that the
newspapers have said enough. Re-
Gently, however, hotly contested cleo
ton was held in Berkeley for the posi-
ton of football Managers position
which 10 full of glory once or twice a
year. Among the contestants was Billy
Denman, son of the supervisor from
the Twelfth Ward. Toward the close of
the day, when it appeared that the cleo
ton was going against himt Denman got
the Kats together, and offered to pay
their assessment if they would vote for
him-those only being allowed to vote
who had contributed to the football
fund. They consented, and voted ac-
cordingly. Shortly after, Jack Mays,
son of Mayor Mays OF The Dalles, came
to the polling-place with his big dog,
Governor.
ST want to vote Goy.," he said.
''Here's his assessment.
81 guess the dog can't vote, Jack, y
reioined the man at the polls.
Mays turned to the crowd:
"Boys." he said, tI'll leave it to you
if a dogs vote amt as good as Kat's."

a G1oomr outlook.

1t is manifest that the present depres-
sion of trade is exceptionally severe, and
promises to be enduring. Some attrib-
ute this depression to the injurious eff
fects of the Mckinley and other protectt
i've tariffs instituted in foreign countries
and in our colonies; others to over
speculation, and yet others to the trades
unions, which have increased the wages
and diminished the hours of the work
men. But these appear to be secondary
and minor causes. With scarcely an
exception all our correspondents speak
of fall of prices greater than that which
can be attributed to the normal prog
ress of industry-the introduction OF
labor-saving appliances, etc. Many ad-
NIT that the demand for the special ar
ticles which they produce is good, while
insisting with curious unanimity upon
a general and continuous fall in prices

GOT HIS MAN.
A Dane introduced to the American
Style of Hotel Runners.


The hotel runners of The Dalles come
nearly worrying the life out of passen-
ger occasionally, and it will not be sur
prising if some time, some poor indi-
vidual will become so befuddled as to
turn out raving maniac. Yesterday a
Dane arrived on the O'Clock train and
he was Immediately surrounded by rum
ners. He didn't know word of Eng
lish, German or French, which were all
tried without avail, but by heroic ges
ticulations Skibbe secured control of
him and his grip. Ere he could go a
dozen feet he was hemmed in in front,
in the rear, and on both sides by rum
ners of the other hotels, all shouting,
and gesturing, and vociferating as if a
murder had just been committed and he
was the assailant caught in the act. In
fact the poor deluded devil did turn
white in the face, and abandoning his
grip to its fate, started to run. He was
caught again and shouted to, with
Skibbe walking along in front hotel
ward, with one of his irresistible smiles,
and finally emerged from view within,
when he was given up-it was close
rub for Skibbe though.

End of the Convention.

The county convention of the w. G.
T. q. closed its labors last night at the
Methodist church. The Scripture read
ing by Mrs. Riggs was from Isaiah lviii.
Mrs. Riggs mentioned that in famine
stricken Russia last year 500, 900, 900 gal
Ions of alcohol were used, which re-
quired 10000, 900 bushels of grain, which
if used for food, would have done away
with all of the suffering from hunger.
She related many facts of interest.
The reading of the annual report of
Mrs. Doughtery next took place, fol-
lowed by music by the Alki club.
Recitation, Miss Georgia Sampson.
Miss Trumbull the speaker of the even
ing, was then introduced by Mrs. S.
French. This lady gave one of the
pleasantest talks it is ever been our
pleasure to hear. Dealing with the tenn
perance question in all its phases, she
touched upon and illuminated them
with choice rhetoric, with phrases, that
while continually changing as the scin-
tillations of diamond, were yet accur-
ate; with a candor that was unmistaka-
BILE; with grace, and ease, and unafec-
tation, with musical, modulated tones,
she held the audience spell-bound by
the force and purity of her language and
the common sense of her ideas. We
will not attempt review of her lecture
to mention any of it would be an in
justice to the remainder; and to give all
of it is beyond our abilities. Those who
blended were well repaid, and those
Fho did not should avail themselves in
he future, if it is ever a possibility, to
bear this delightful lecture.

money for Argentine.

LONDON, April 19.-The Argentine
government has made, through the Bar
ings, an offer to the Rothschild commit
tee to pay e1 100000 annually, with re-
sumption of payments of full interest
after five years, as settlement of the
foreign debt, the bondholders to arrange
among themselves how the amounts
shall be apportioned. This last pro-
vision probably will render futile the
whole offer, as it is likely to cause end
less discussion among the claimants.

MARKET REPORT.

THURSDAY, April 20.-The week just
past has been variable in weather and
likewise in the volume of trade with our
spurts of activity among business houses
which evidenced an improvement over
the former week. Quite a number of
teams have come in from interior towns
after freight and Immediate supplies
which has given stimulating influence
in business circles.
In the produce market there is the
usual quietness. Eggs continue to come
into market sparingly, and 15 cents per
dozen is the ruling quotation for today.
Butter is more plentiful and 40 cents per
roll is said to be the price paid for good.
Poultry is scarce in the market with a
better inquiry. Potatoes are steady at
$1.55 to $3.50 Ter 100 lbs.
In groceries, sugar has advanced a
quarter of cent on all grades. Coffee
remains steady on former quotations.
Beans have declined q of cent per lb.
Stock salt has declined, likewise Liver
pool.
Rolled barley has advanced in conse-
quence of an advance in barley which is
becoming more scarce as the season ad-
vances. Oats are difficult to get, and
owing to the increasing scarcity, the
market is very firm with strong ten
dency to higher prices.
The wool market remains in a DOR
mant condition at present. No one
cares to give an opinion of the market
from recent advices.
The cereal situation is far from salts
factory. The future prospects for a
repetition of 1891 in an over production
is not expected, judging from the report
from the U. S. department of agricul-
ture, as the present average wheat con-
dition shows only 77.4 per cent. of full
crop. Oregon's standing is SO per cent,
while California has 81 per cent, and
other prominent wheat states average
so per cent.
