The Surrender OF A Fuai,ive.

TACOMA, Wash, Dec. 7.-Thomas Beals
the cashier of the Island county bank, at
Coupeville, surrendered to the authorities
here to day. He heard that he was want.
ed on charge of embezzlement and gave
himself up to Chief of Police Davis
Sheriff Nunen, of Island county, arrived
at Z o'clock, and will take the prisoner
over for trial Beals is said to have
squandered $I1 900 of the banks none y
in the last three months. He bought up
lot of bank stock in his own name, US
ing, it is claimed, depositors' money for
that purpose. There should be over $780,
600 In the bank in money and securities,
but only 81 In cash and some worthless
notes were found. The bank was state
institution. with capital stock of $25, 900
of which $15 900 was paid up. Deposits
aggregate $500. Beals admits being on
a spree for the past five weeks, but says
he spent his own money and IS not guilty
OF embezzlemenl. He says he only spent
about $1,000 altogether. He claims to
have relatives and sufficient property TO
make the loss good.

The rebels of Rio Grando do Sui are
now beseiging the town of Bage, on the
southern border of the province of Sac
Pedro do Rio Grande, and the garrison is
showing itself well prepaTed for a de-

General Isidore, who was recently
made prisoner by the rebels, was wounded
in the arm. They are threatening now
to shoot him. Peixoto's minister tele-
graphed to General Tavsres, who cap

The rule of politicians in this coun-
try has nearly subverted the object of
free institutions, and, practically
speaking, the people have as little to
do in governmental affairs as if they
we're subjects of the czar of Russia or
the sultan of Turkey. From municipal
affairs to national elections this class
Of persons have as complete sway as
though they we're absolute monarchs,
and the voters are like dumb driven
cattle that are herded to the ballot
box to do the bidding of their masters.
The primary is the only purely demo-
cratic institution in our system of gov
ernment, and this is SO largely con-
trolled by cliques that it is Ear from
being a popular expression of the
public will. In county and other
conventions the caucus and the ma
chine control the nominations, ano cit
zens are accorded the privilege of vot-
ing pets into Office. There is des-
potism in this country almost as de-
grading as that which ,disgraces mon-
archical Europe, and the class of ex-
pert politicians, who have carefully
studied the art of duplicity and
who consider no means too despi-
cable to accomplish their purposes,
have as unlimited power over free
and enlightened people in America as
the satraps of the Ottoman empire ex-
ereise oyer the ignorant, haIf-civil-
lied disciples of Islanisn in Asia.

Groxer Backs Down.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6-The Esam
tner's Washington correspondent tele
graphs that he has succeeded in securing
some inside information in reference TO
the Administrations plans in dealing
with the Hawaiian question. The pur-
pose OF President Cleveland and Secre-
retary Gresham now is not to attempt to
restore Queen Liliuokalani by force, but
TO lay the entire question before congress
and secure the sanction of the legislative
branch to any new move on the islands.
Definite instructions have been sent to
Minister Willis, not to take any decided
action until further instructions are sent
him. 1t seems certain that new instruc-
tlons have been sent him to this effect by
the Corwin. 1t is believed now that the
president and secretary of state, from in
formation received from Willis, have de-
cIded that the queen cannot be restored
without force and that this course cannot
be followed without the sanction of con-
gress.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6-The morning hour
in the house was consumed in discussion of
the resolution to appoint joint committee to
investigate the personnel OF the navy. Nc
creary of Kentucky, Kilgore and Sayers of
Texas, and others, strongly opposed it, and
Hayes of Iowa and Cummings of New Y k
favored the resolution. Before the result was
reached, the morning hour expired, and the
resolution went over.
The senate amendment to the resolution
appropriating $4,000 to carry out the Chi
nese exclusion act, as extended was agreed to,
and resolution offered by Grosvenor, giving
the names of 1900 Ohio pensioners dropped
from the rolls, and asking for the reason and
other information from the secretary of the in
terror. The remainder of the session was de-
voted to the delivery of eulogles upon the
late General James Shields, and as further
mark of respect the house, at 2;55 adjourned.

The death of Prof. Tyndall r.

The death of Prof. Tyndall removes
from the world of scientific research
one of its most earnest disciples. He
has done more in disseminating science
to the people than any other living
person, and he possessed the rare fac
ulty in presenting truths in a shape
that they could be easily understood.
A thorough knowledge of principles he
combined with the ability to impart
information to others, and the stu
dents of physics have suffered great
loss IN the death of Prof. John Tyn-
dali. On both sides of the Atlantic
be was equally honored, and no one
could be taken from active live who
would leave greater vacancy,and one
more difficult to hll.

The r.amage overestimated.

MARsHFIELD, Or, Dec. 6-Since the
waters. on the Coquille have receded, II
Is learned that the damage to the Coos
Bay s. Roseburg railroad is found to have
been overestimated, but as it was nearly
all backwater, with no current, the re-
cedlng floods leave the truck only slightly
damaged. There was heavy wash at
Cedar Point, which twisted and shifted
two small span bridges, which we're only
temporary structures. No rails OF ties
were damaged, and there was not par
ticle of damage to any of the bridges
built on piliDg. The greatest damage
was done to the ballasting, which had
just been completed before the rainy
season opened. Trains will be running
to Coquille river by Saturday, and to
Myrtle Point some time next week. The
total damage will not exceed $4,000.

Ex.state Senator Norval Dead.

LA GRANDE, Or, Dec. 6-News has
just reached this city that ex>State Sem
ator j. W. Norval died suddenly this
afternoon OF heart disease. He had left
his home, near Rinehart station, with the
intention of taking the train for La
Grande. Being somewhat late, it was
necessary for him to run to catch his
train. As be came up to the station. he
was seen to reel and fall, and before any
one could reach his side he had expired.
Mr.. Norval was one of the pioneers of
Union county, and had always been ac-
tive in political matters. He was elec-
ted to the state senate in 1883, and was a
prominent candidate for the congressional
nomination before the republican con-
vention In 1892,

A Mine On Fire.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5-Tbe report has
just reached here from Hazelton, Pa, to
the effect that the Crystal Ridge mine at
Burli is burning, and number OF men
are imprisoned. Flames are said to be
filling the slope. Four men are closed in
and rescuing parties are working hard to
liberate them. There is little hope of
saving the slope. The destruction of
property seems inevitable. The damage
will exceed 100000 if not controlled be-
fore spreading to the inner workings.

THEORIES.

The East Orego1siars says the sum
and substance of all failures IS trying
s'to make something out of nothing" in
rebuttal of an article in the TINES
MoUNTAINEER stating that the failure
of prominent sheepman in Umatilla
county was because of the Democratic
victory last fall destroying the market
for his weol. Taken in reference to
general matters the remarks of our
cotemporary are unfair, unkind and
very narrow-minded, and can be ap-
piled with equal force to himself as to
any other person. In reference to the
matter under discussion we believe the
sheep industry is as adaptable to East
ern Oregon as daily paper is to PEN
dleton. The great paper of Portland
supplies the people of Oregon with
fuller dispatches and more news at
lower price than the local press, and
yet one should uot be so bigoted as to
say let the big paper live and the
others die. The conditions are not as
favorable for the growth of wool on
the Pacific slope as in the Argentine
republic and Australia; but for that
reason we do not believe that sheep
men are trying to make "somethlng
out of nothing" One of the greatest
factors in the development Of the
northwest has been raising sheep, and
we do not desire to see those engaged
in this business become bankrupt and
driven from the country. But Bro.
Jackson is disciple of Henry George,
and his political gospel is progress
and Poverty" by that author. He be-
lieves in the single tax theory, in nei-
ther silver or gold as circulating
medium, and all the other lmpractica-
BILE notions advocated by poetical and
speculative economists. During pres
idential campaigns he is Democratic
Simon pure; but during the intervals
he is a political will-o'- the -wisp, and
fits to all points of the compass.

BOISE, Idado. Dec. 6-P.A. Marksom,
the well known Coeur dAlene mining man,
has come in from the Seven Devils region,
iu Washington county, bringing much I'M
potant mining information. He thinks that
section has some of the best copper ledges in
the world; also that 1t is destined to rival the
Ceur d'Alenes as a lead and silver camp. His
most important news is in respect to recent
gold discoveries in Indian valley. Ore has

Additional AdvIees.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Dec. 5-Fur
tier advices from Honolulu sppertaining
to the political affairs of the islands were
received today by the barkentine KttcE-
itot, which arrived last night Minister
Willis authorized interview in the Star.
which was telegraphed here last night,
allayed public feeling and restored gen
eral confidence in the commercial affairs
of the islands. The queens supporters
continued, however, to aver that the
American minister should be severely
reprimanded for not obeying the instruc-
tions of the state department. which, as
il eman tied from one OF two of Liliuok-
alani's closest advisers, was to the effect
that Willis had imperative instructions
to restore and recognize the monarchial
government. These assertions, together
with Willis remarks that unexpected
contingencies had arisen. of which the
American government or himself bad no
knowledge and which were OF sufficient
Importance to cause him to alter his
plans and send dispatches TO Washington
for further Instructions, were taken as
indicating that Willis had orders TO re.
store the queen. 1t was believed ln Hon =
olulu that Willis went there prepared
to abolish the provisional government,
and that his Instructions were based
upon an existing conditions of sffsirs,
which, on Investigation, Willis found did
not exist. This supposltioD is further
verified by remark made to Captain
Cutler, Of the Klickitat, by Willis. when
he said he was surprised to meet so many
broad-mInded, law-abiding and thor
oughly iptelligen, people In Hawaii
Willis is religiously inclined and 70 a
considerable extent associated with the
missionary elements in the islands, and
came in contact with the ablest men in
Honolulu. all of whom are strongly op-
posed TO the restoration of monarchy, and
especially the queen, on account OF her
supposed unchaste conduct. This class
of citizens we're careful to see that Willis
was correctly informed of certain facts
that Blount did not choose to consider.

Her Pretty Name.
From the Millioa,
Ladies who bear the good. oId-fash;oned
name of Jane. and who call their eldest daugh-
tiers after themselves, should beware OF engag-
ing pretty housemaid whose godfa,hers and
godmothers bestowed upon her the same simple
title Many complications may ensue if this
caution be neglected. HERDS a case in point:
Mrs y. was always addressed by her husband
as Jane, and Miss y. answered to the same call
SO did the new housemaid. Thereupon Mr. Y
felt himself aggrieved, and turning to the last,
he said:
Il think. Jane 1t will be better for me to call
you by your last name. if you have no objec-
ton: can't call you Jane"
Then call me Darling. sir; don't mind"
OF course the girls name really was Darling.
