srringer's Banking Bill.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15-Congressman
William NJ Springer, chairman of the
committee on banking and currency, is
preparing bill to remedy the defects of
the national banking system. which he
will submit to the members of the COM
mittee, and hopes to get 1t btfore COM
gress soon after It assemblies. He says
the near approach to the time when gov
ernment bonds will be payable, the Inn
tied volume of such bonds. and their
high price, demonstrate that other secur-
itv for circulation must he resorted to if
we are to have enough currency for the
needs of the country. To that end he
will propose that the bonds of states, of
counties and of certain municipalities,
with proper reputation and under gov
ernment supervision, be utilized for the
purpose of securing circulation, and all
banks, state as we'll as national, deposit :
ing such securities will be permitted to
take out currency 10 at least 80 per cent
of their par value. Provision will also
be made for additional security In case
of the slightest depreciation in the value
of these securities. and she government is
to assume the sole res possibility for the
redemption of such notes In coin ON de-
maud. for which purpose it should keep
a coin ressrye of at least 90 per cent OF
the outstanding circulation. This would
relieve the banks of keeping bank re-
serves, or withholding any part OF the
currency issued from circulation among
the people.

election that the chances of party sue
cess and discipline depend on bo'dness
and promtItude in defining their policy,
and therefore all haste consistent with
delIberatlcn will be made in completing
the bill and giving it 10 the public. To
this end, IN order to avoid any chance of
wrangllng or delay, 1t has been decided
not to cs!l any caucus to consider the
bill in advance of its presentation to con-
gress. That this course Will meet with
criticism Is evidenced by the fact that
Bland of Missouri, Cu!berson of Texas,
and others have openly announced their
intention of opposing free wool. The
work of drafting tue bill is being done
in subcommittee, which also as fast as
they complete the work draft their part
of the report to accompany II. In this
wsy the who'e work is moving forwardly
very rapidly, and large part of the re.
port is now ready fer submission to the
house. The full committee must pass 90
these divisions, but it is not probable any
considerable changes will be made. 1t
Is expected the final announcement will
be made in 10 days or two weeks. 1t IS
generally accepted that wool, coal, iron
ore, lumber and salt will be added 10
the free list, but the committee iealously
guard the list of manufactured articles
to go on the same list. Sugar is still un~
| der consideration, though so far the ten
dency is to repeal the bounty and put it
on the free list The iron and coal men
continue to protest against placing these
articles on the free list.

Iowa aud Chicago. Special factors
entered into each problem. but the
great factor was the same everywhere.
The people voted down protection last
fall and now they are sorry they did
it. That is the whole story in nut
shell. Because New York city is the
great portiof entry of the country and
the head center of importation it is
supposed that it is naturally for free
trade, but it is fact capable of abso-
lutte demonstration that it is the great
est industrial center of the continent.
A poll of the city taken few
months ago by the New York World
showed an enormous unemployed pop
ulation. Most of those people voted
for Cleveland last fall, and care moth
ing about Maynard. They voted the
Republican ticket now as the only
way they could serve notice on con-
gress not to pass the proposed Wilson
free.trade tariff bill. That is the great
and overshadowlng significance of the
landslide in New York city and state.

Fight With ROBBERS

FRESNO, CAL, Nov. 14-William Far
row, late nominee for tax collector of this
county on the Populist ticket, was killed
: one and one-half miles west of this ci y
this morning. About 8 o'clock he had
come to town and got warrant for the
arrest of parties who stole some of his
fishing apparatus, and accompanied Of
6cer William Henry to make the arrest.
When the parties were overtaken they
commenced shooting. killing Farrow.
The officers have retuned with the un..
known man who killed Farrow. The
prisoner is probably fatally wounded in
the abdomen. He is about 70 years old
and fisherman:
When Deputy Constable Henry COM
meDced reading the warrant to the men
IN d wagon, charged with stealing Far
rows fishing apparatus, the old man tie
gan firing at the officer, which was re-.
turned by the officer. Farrow was a
crippled man, and when the horses be-
came frightened at the shooting he was
thrown from the buggy and lett at the
mercy of his foes, who shot him literally
to pieces. Officer Henry returned to
this city after exhaustlng his annual
ton, and secured other officers, who all
returned to the scene of the shooting
They found the old man dangerously
wounded and took him to Jail. He will
not give his name and no one seems to
know who he is. Farrow leaves a large
family in poor circumstances Later re-
ports seem to indicate that two OF the
resisting parties escaped. 1t is Iot
known whether they are hurt or not.

THAT ORDINANCE.

Our evening cotemporary had very
senseless criticism of city ordinance
in its last issue, and which it denomi-
mated "not only impolitic but idi-
otic." Whoever the author may be hs
should know that every municipality,
as agent of the state, has authority
granted to it which may appear as an
abridgment of personal rights to one
living in the country. For the grad
ing of streets, removal of nuisances
for sanitary purposes and as police reg
ulations cities are given powers in
their charters which may appear ex-
traordinary; but they tend to the well
fare of the community, and have
therefore been decided constitutional.
This ordinance in question was passed
over four years age, and is very
beneficial in It's effects. During the
last two or three months, by reason of
teams standing in the streets, there
have been several disastrous runaways,
in which not only property has been
destroyed, but life has been leopard
lied. The council, not to impose any
burden upon our farmer friends, have
rented vacant lot for the purpose of
bitchlng and feeding animals, and this
place is as convenient and great deal
more cleanly to feed horse hay end
grain tran on the sidewalk This
same municipal law provides for i'm
pounding cattle running at large, and
its repeal would allow COWS to prowl
around at night, feast themselves on
shade trees, break down fences and be
not limited in the least in their Fin
alienable rights of life, liberty and the
pursuit. of happiness" If The Dalles
desires to remain city this law should
remain in force, not Notwithstanding the
idiotic howl of mossbacks. We do
not want cows to run at large or horses
to be fed on the sidewalks, and the
TIMES ,MoUNTAINEER, which has al
ways favored advancement in city af-
fairs, will oppose the repeal of this
salutary city ordinance, being fully
persuaded, by decisions in the highest
courts of every state, that it is in har-
mony with the constitution.

German Lawmake eas.

BERLIN, Nov. 16-Emperor William
formally opened the reichstag teday. In
bis opening address the emperor thanked
the body for complying with his demand
at assembling in July for the passage of
bills for the increase of the army effec-
tive, and declared the evidence of warm
sympathy he had lately received in var
ious parts of the empire gave evidence of
the great satisfaction of the nation that
the army had obtained an organization
which guarantees the protection of the
fatherland, and for the preservation of
peace. 1t would be the chief duty OF
the present reichstag to provide the in :
creased means made necessary by the in
crease of the army. and to fix definitely
the proportions of revenue to be con,ri-
buted by the various states of the en-
pire. Bills to this end would be sub
mitted, also bills relative to the taxation
OF tobacco and wine. and the levying of
imperial stamps. He said commercial
treaties had been concluded with Spain,
Roumsnia and Servia. 1t had been
found necessary to raise the Russian i'm
port duties 10 an unusual degree, but it
was hoped pending negotiations with
Russia would lead to the abrogatiou of
these measures. He said there had been
no change in the relations with foreign
governments, and closed with the hope
that the blessings of peace would con-
tinue to abide with the nation. His speech
was warmly cheered.

$4,000 He. however, said there would

orders would take similar action. The
leaders of these organizations would then

place for meetings of ali these orders.

OUR POSITION.

In reference to the ordinance re-
garding tying and feeding horses on
the streets and COWS running at large,
day or night, the TIMES -MoUNTAINEER
is favorable to the law passed in 1889,
and it seeks nor expects any favors
from any class cr clique. 1t only fol-
lows the course it has frequently ad-
vocated of making The Dalles a city,
and nos cow and hog-ridden village.
This paper has always been and will
continue to be friend to the farmer
and laborer, and in every way 1t can
advance their interests it will do so
without the least hope of reward or
expectation of increasing its sub
scription," the price of which is
So year. There is no law compelling
any one to take it, and every one has
the privilege of stopping 1t as soon as
arrearages are paid and its editorial
expressions are not agreeable. 1t does
not believe in any antagonisu between
the city and country, and any one who
ettempts to inaugurate such policy
is no friend to the development of the
country. The TINES MoUNTAINEER,
for more than ten years past, has
worked for the best interests of the
community, and is not under the con-
troll of bankers, capitalists, land
boomers, political classes or cliques. 1t
has faith in the future of The Dalles,
and is fully assured that if the city
had not been cursed by factional strife,
mossbackism, class rule and lack of
enterprise it would have had ten times
the amount of wealth and population
it now possesses. The paper is owned
by the editor and proprietor, and he
alone is responsible for its utterances.
1t is the means of his livelihood, and
he is fully persuaded that in the fu-
tnre, as in the past, he will be success
full in maintaining the leadership in
journalism, TO which he is entitled,
notwithstanding the unfair tricks, pre-
and schemes resorted to by
his enemies to injure his bu siness and
influence.

HAWAIIAN MATTERS.

The letter of Secretary Gresham on
the Hawaiian question has made plain
the position of the administration, and
NO doubt can hereafter be entertained
that Cleveland and his cabinet are op-
posed to the annexation of these isl
ands. In the first place, the secretary
assumes that the government was sub
verted by the interference of foreign.
ers and the landing of American ma
rines from warship at anchor in the
harbor of Honolulu. This fact he has
learned from an investigation made by
Minister Blount, who was sent there
by President Cleveland to examine
into the affair and make a report.
From this Mr.. Gresham draws con-
clusion that the representative Of this
government at Honolulu acted wrong
In lending the least aid to the revolu-
ton agar st Queen Liliuokalani, and
to make reparation she should be re-
established on her rightful throne. This
il question of fact, which may lead to
long and heated discussion between
the friends of the late Republican and
the present Democratic administra-
tion. 1t is not safe policy for this
country to pursue to interfere with
established forms of government, or to
annex foreign territory, and if the
facts are as stated by the secretary the
United States has acted in very un-
becoming manner toward the little
island kingdom; but to re-establish the
statu quo, at this late date, may re-
quire armed Intervention, which will
require action not at all in harmony
with free institutions. There are cap
italists in the Sandwich islands who
would desire the stars and stripes to
hoat over Hawaii for personal ends;
but these should not influence the
president and his cabinet to violate the
comfy of nations. If we would dis
countenance the act in England, Ger
many or France, we should be careful
not to merit censure for doing the
samething.

Dynamite In ,rarseiI.e

MARsEILLEs, Nov. 16-At midnight
an attempt was made to blow up the of
fetal residence of General Mathelin, com.
mander of the Fifteenth corps. The
house is surrounded by high wall, into
which inches for sentry boxes are built
though owing to the late quiet condition
of affairs no sentrIes occupied them.
Cases of dynamite were placed in the
inches. also one in the hallway of the
house, and one in the orderly's room ad-
joining the apartments occupied by the
general. About midnight the LAST :
toned bomb exploded with fearful force,
SCATTERING the walls and breaking every
pane of glass in the house and the ad :
joining house, and badly damaging the
building occupied as girls school, and
the octroi or food tax building opposite
the generals residence. In fact, the
force wss so great 1t was felt mile away.
Tne supposition is that the dynsmiters
expected the first conclusion to set off all
the other cases. Had this occurred there
would have been great destruction of
property and heavy loss of life; as it
was, Eobody was hurt. The outrage IS
supposed to be work of street car strIk-
ers, whose strike was defeated by the aid
of the soldiers. A rigid investigation
into the affair is in progress.
The police nave arrested forty nnar-
chists, including ten foreigners.
