The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1893-03-02

1t may be said, as it is in this case
and as it is in every case, ave come
to do YOU good" They say they come
to secure a right that a state govern
nent can not secure; they come to To-
stow a blessing that the state govern
ment cannot dispense.
If these assumptions are correct
local self.government is wrong. Con-
situations and constitutional limita-
ti0ns are all wrong. Bills OF rights
and reservations in the sacred name
Of liberty are all wrong. And our
fathers instead of being the wisest
end most profound statesmen that
God has ever given TO the world, were
mere chaglatans and pretenders.
All the checks and balances, all the
reservations and prohibitions were
but distractions, instead of safeguards
to right. If what we are doing now is
right il would have been better to
have left all the barriers down and not
have imposed on us the task Of hunt
ing subterfuges by the aid of which
W. might ride, booted and spurred,
over all the rights of the people of the
several states

Tho Festive Tramp.

Some eighty-fiye trampsss stopped
off the overland at Grants Pass
one morning last week, and the
people thought it was better to
feed them than to incur their en-
nifty. So a number Of citizens do
mated bread and other provisions.
and the birds Of passage pitched
their camp in the company's wood
pile, near the stockYards. They
built number Of fires out Of the
company's wood, and constructed
brsak-winds after cooking their
meal and lay down to toast them
selves for the night, as none Of
them had blankets. They were
not a bad lsclging set, and were
simply a lot Of fiiipsoeident fel.
lows whom the hard times bad
thrown out Of employment. they
were organized, had their own
marshal and judge, and seemed
determined to prevent any deprc-
dation on the part Of their mem
bers. One Of The party had some
trouble with a brakeman, in which
the member was proved to be
wrong, SO he was tried and SEN
fenced to thirty planks with Q
board, after his hands had beer
tied behind him.

Placer Mining.

q < . ID
Several months ago company
was formed of St Paul capitalists
to operate q new mining machine,
says the Kennewick Columbian.
They have adopted the name Of
the Columbia River Placer Mining
company, and elected J. NJ. Ander-
son superintendent in charge.
Mr.. Anderson came out here a few
months ago and has completed all
necessary preliminary arrange
ments and the machinery was set
in motion last Tuesday. About
100000 has been expended in the
new machinery and barges and
they are now at work on the claim
purchased from J. e. Van Gorden,
Last Wednesday the company
made a day. s,run, and cleaned uI
a neat sum. Of course they are
not working in pay dirt, but they
are more than satisfied with the
result, and Mr., Anderson and
other stockholders, are very sano,
guine Of the result. The company
will no doubt add other plants ant
before many moons the river bank
| will be lined with these new ma
chimes. II is claimed that wher
| the Old rockers will pay dolla'
a day per man, this new machine
will clean up as high as $3.50 t.
| $400 per day.

The Deadly Shot Gun.

Fred Brannin, the nineteen year
old son of r. @. Bannin Of Milton
was shot and probably fatally in
jured with a shot gun recently in
the hands of another boy named
Graham. The boys were in a
chariwari party when the accident
occurred. The. gun was loaded
with powder and wads, the latter
entering Bannin's right hip, in
ficting a very serious wound. It
is related that Graham tried un-
successfully tocrowd Branninout Of
his place IN the ranks, and after
one Of these attempts the shooting
occurred, Both young men were
armed with shot guns loaded with
powder and wads. 1t is claimed
| by Graham that the shooting was
accidental, and the case has moi
yet been decided.

In Trouble over Lap-robe.

The other day Joseph Rainville
missed a lap-robe from his buggy
and found it at Hicks stable,
where it had been-sold by Frank
Turner. Turner was arrested, and
had his examination Friday after
noon before Justice Rosenberg,
being fined $25, phe young man
who has lived here several years
and has never before been accused
iof wrong doing, explained that he
foolishly sold the robe for another
man who requested him to do so.
This party could not be found,
however, and Turner had to suffer.
He feels very badly over the case,
and the belief is charitably ex-
pressed that his explanation is
true.

Starved TO Death in the Mountains

A correspondent writes from
Lapwai to the Grangeville Free
Press that the bodies Of a man
and women Of middle age had
been found recently by Indians in
the Bitter Root mountains: 1t is
not definitely known who the VIC
Tins were, but it is stated by pros
pectors that parties answering
their description left Lo Lo hot
springs last summer to go on foot
toBoise City in order toescape the
prosecutions Of the woman's step
mother. They evidently did not
realize the dangers Of this journey
and, as they we're poorly provided,
had to succumb to the pangs Of
hunger and starvation and thus
made their pitiable story possible.

Under Lock and Key.

Or. Joseph Bill is the name Of a
veterinary surgeon who came to
Athena this spring, accompanied by
his wife and child. They stopped
at the Athena Restaurant and last
Wednesday Millen, one Of the pro-
plietors attached their goods for
doard amounting to $106. The
DR.. gave Millen orders on different
parties to satisfy the amount due,
but out Of all of them only a
small amount was collected, the
majority refusing to recognize the
orders on grounds that Bill agreed
to cure or no pay WOULD be expect
cd for his service.
Mr.. Millen stin holds the goods
and the Dr., wife and child are
now at the Athena House. 1t is
hoped the DR.. will be able to
straighten matters up.

Committee of 100.

The grand jury today indicted
George B. Markle, president Of the
Oregon National Bank; Sid r.
Sherman, cashier, and Penumbra
Kelly, sheriff Of Multnomah coun-
ty, for failure to pay into the
county treasury about $148,000
of county funds. Kelley had the
money on deposit in the Oregon
National Bank when it failed last
July. The bank only remained
closed one month, but the sheRfl
could not draw out the money im-
mediately for fear Of closing the
bank again. The committee Of
100 took the matter in hand and
the indictments are the result Of
their work. The opinion is freely
expressed by many that the COM
mittee has taken the wrong course
to get the money in the quickest
way.
