Fire Yesterday MorainG.

z. a. Woeber's stable al the rear oil
his grocery store, on South Market
street, was burned early Yesterday
morning. A horse, buggy and sleigh
were also burned.
About 5 o'clock box 5 was pulled and
the department responded. The Mag
ara firemen arrived first and as the
stable was then past saving, none OF the
other divisions were needed. The house
next north. owned by George Weisner,
was badly scorched.
Two suspicious looking characters
were seen prowling about the premises
last Tuesday and this gives ground Tor
the belief that the fire was the result OF
an incendiary.
MIR. Woeber's loss is about $780,

IrsrIcE TO HAWAII

The efforts OF the opposition to dis
tort, discredit and misrepreseut
the policy Of the administra-
ton in the Hawaiian affair are
no less absurd than dishonest in the
eyes OF those who understand the case.
In fact the administration could nor be
true TO American principles and pursue
any other policy than that which /: has
adopted.
The whole case was stated at length
and in full detail In Secretary GREsH-
ANS report, a full synopsis OF which
has been published iu the REGISTER.
In brief, 10 was not question with the
present Administration whether Hawaii
should be annexed TO the United States
or not, out as to whether the United
States should do justice to the Hawaiian
lrgs9s-s.lsIlow the stain put upon this
governments reputation for fair play
bv Minister STEVENS TO stand or be
wiped out.
The main facts in brief are these,
and they are not denied by Ex-Minister
STEVENS:
A band Of advsnturers-not native
Hawa.ia1s-s,lrtod @ revolution for
purposes % their own.
Inuei.a.s.y United States troog
were landed from Che vlrslip in tn
ha-5o- 1d ruaelsrea opposite ,ao -og-
eminent building which the revoIu-
tIonists had seized, to "proserve the
peace" at the Oehest Of Minister
STEVENS.
Queen LIIIUOKALANI then surreu-
dered ito the superior force Of the
United States" though her forces
would easily have routed the few revo-
Iutionists, she preierring forest hereaso
with the United States.
Then came TO Washington the self
supointed annexation commission, back
cd by CLAUS SPBECNELs and Others
with purely private mosives Of gain.
But before their scheme was completed
President HARRISON, who aided it with
All mis- power through his desire to add
questionable glory to his administration
by the acquisition of these Islands was
turned out Of power, leaving this great
wrong to Hawaii along with other IN
iouities, as a legacy TO the present Dem
ocratic administration, which for an
act OF simple justice not only to the
Hawaiian people but 10 the honor OF the
United States and She American prin-
eiple of fair play, is now howlsd at by
constituencies political opponents as the
friend of monarchy
Had President CLEVELAND been
smaller and less brosd-niuded patriot
he might easily have obscured the issue
and made some political capital by re-
fusing fair play 10 the Hawaii
ans aud by recommending AZ
nexation. But GROVER CLEVELAND
is not OF that cali5re and this act
Of Justice TO an Infinitely weaker power
will &c down in history as one Of the
poblest acts OF an American admins

Deadly Electric Wire.

OREGON CITY, Sept. ga sad acci.,
dent occurred at the Clackamas bridge,
IN the East Side electric railway line,
this eveing. 1t resulted IN the Death
of Carl Perham, who with other bridge
men. was repairing the bridge, which
two weeks ago sprung out of line. The
men had been at work all day upon the
upper chords of the bridge, tightening
up The rods, and bad been passing to and
fro on the lateral braces between the
chords They used the electric wires which
are strung upon the bridge. for support
as they passed. A little before o'clock
Carl went across the bridge after an au-
CUR. In taking hold of the wires, he
probably seized live wire at point
where the insulation was broken. The
first his fellow workmen knew of the &C.
cident was seeing him stagger and hear
ing the buZzing sound usual to n connec-
tion between live wires. In moment
he fell back with bis bead across another
wire. They were powerless to help him,
and were obliged to stand by and see the
flame burn his hands. A balf minute
later he fell from the upper chords 10 the
main chords of the bridge, where he was
caught by bis brother, 81. W. Perham,
the foreman in charge of the work. His
body was apparently llfeless when he
fell. Death had probably been instan,
taneous with the first contact of the 1--we
wires, which were carrying 5000 volts.

TO printing by coming to him and lntl-
mating that be (Morse) would, as men,
Der of the committee on buildings and
grounds, help Fithlan get through any
public building bill in which be might

That is absolutely falsc,n' shouted
Morse, striding menacingly toward Fifth

''If the gentleman from Massachusetts
denies the statement, I have proof that

Morse backed against the rail and re :
piled meekiy: what the gentlemen

"but the construction be places on it is
unqualifiedly false'
"If the gentleman denies my state
ment," yelled Fithian, shaking his fist
angrlly at the Massachusetts man, ''he is
wilifuily lying himself"
The house was then in an uproar. The
speaker pounded vigorously for order.
This closed the incident

federal election laws was resumed.

The Democratic platform adopted

the repeal of tariff laws, of the fed
eral election Law and of the silver
purchase clause of the Sherman act.
President Cleveland called special
session of congress for the purpose of

form on the last named bill, and it has
been in session now over a month and
nothing has been done. The house
passed bill to repeal the clause mem
toned; but the senate has done con-
siderable talking but passed no bills.
Instead of which the silver advocates
are attempting-to lay the foundation
for impeachment of President Cleve-
land, and are wasting time in every
possible manner 1t is but just that

Ase Fighting at Rio.

LONDON, Sept ga cable from Rio

squadron resumed bombsrdment of the
capital of Brazil this morning. The forts
replied to the fire. The ships ceased fir
ing and retired out of range. The dam
age to Rio de Janeiro is said to be heavy.
The war ships are also reported to haYe
suffered from the fire of the forts. and on
several of the rebel ships the shells of
the forts are said to have caused death
among the crews. In Rio also there was
u loss of life and destruction of property,
but full particulars are unobtainable.
Santos is also reported to haye received
another visitation from the rebel ships
blockading that port but the report is
not confirmed.
All the shipping is shut out of Santos,
cutting off Peixoto's revenue. Reports
reach here that revolts against Peixoto
have occurred ID several states OF Brazil,
and that the situation in the interior is
worse than on the coast.

THE SILVERITES.

Senator Stewart has introduced
resolution arraigning the president for
violating the constitution in invading
the realm of an independent and CO.
ordinate branch of the government for
the purpose of bribing congressman
into support Of administrative meas
ures by promises of patronage; in the
suspension of the Geary act, which
has been declared constitutional, and
in suspending the operation of the
silver purchasing clause of the Sher-
man act. In his speech before the
senate Mr.. Stewart waxed warm and
eloquent, and went back over pages of
history for centuries to find examples
in the mother country where personal
rights bad been trampled under feet
by the Stuarts. But, even if Mr..
Cleveland is guilty as charged in the
resolution, there can be no parallel be-
tween the conscientious acts of a pa
triotic president of republic, and the
arbitrary rule of despotic monarch.
1t may be true that the executive ex-
ceeded his powers IN suspending the
Chinese exclusion law and regarding
the silver-purchase clause; but these
acts did not result in the abrIdgment
of any rights of citizens or work any
injury to the country, and the leading
men of the nation considered them IN
ducive to the public veal. The animus
of the proceeding can be easily traced
to the advocates of free coinage in the
senate, who are determined to use
every device to block legislation, 30
that they may accomplish negative
victory In tiring out the friends of
honest money. In the matter of i'm
peachment they can expect to accom-
plish nothing, for if the senate passes
the Stewart resolution the ar
ticles looking to that end must
originate in the house, which is too
friendly to the executive to favor any
such measure. The eilatory action of
the upper house has already received
the severest censure of the press and
people, and this last movement will |
only tend to increase the bitter feel
ing of the public toward the frse-sil-
yer gang.
