ELECTRIC FLASHES.

Oregon City is making preparations
to celebrate the Fourth of July in grand
style.
Herman Schaffner & Co., private
bankers, Chicago, have made complete
assignment. Schaffner & Co.. was the
largest private concern in this city or in
the Northwest, dealing exclusively in
commercial paper.
The Examiner issued yesterday Col
umbian edition of 40 pages, which will
exceed by 20 pages any previous record
in the way of a mammoth newspaper,
either in the United Statesor elsewhere.
The edition has been year in course of
preparation.
An important disclosure as to a sys-
tematic underground railroad arrange
ment for the smuggling of Chinese into
the United States, by way of Canada,
was contained in report just made to
the treasury department by Special
Agent J.zS. Smith, stationed at Boston.
Mass.
All charges of murder. etc., against H.
@. Frick and others of the Carnegie
Steel company officials, as well as the
Pinkerton detectives, were dropped in
court. In turn, all of the strikers who
had been arrested, and were as yet un-
tried, have been released on their own
recognizances. This virtually ends all
of the Homestead cases in connection
with the big strike of last year.

THE LOWEST So FAR
Less Than Ninety Million Dollars Of
Gold in the Treasury.
BoND-IssUE QUESTION REVIEWED.
Special Meeting of the Cabinet Will Be
Held Tomorrow to Discuss
the Situation.
oND-IssUE QUESTION REVIEWED

WASHINGTON, June 3.-At no time
since specie payments were resumed,
January 1st, 1879, has the net gold in
the treasury of the United States been
so low as today. The amount is $780,
939, ,217. January 1st, 1876, it was $114,-
1913, $50. Since that period it gradually
increased until March, 1888. it had
reached $218, 5000. This was the
high water mark. Since then the net
gold holdings of the treasury have been
on the declining scale. While no un-
easiness has been felt at the treasury
department, because of the continued
loss of gold from the treasury, still Sec
retary Carlisle is not unmindful of the
fact that limit may be reached where
the confidence reposed in the treasury
department by the people may be
shaken. How to replete the treasury
with gold has been a problem seriously
considered by the administration for
some time. The issue of bonds is the
usual remedy suggested, but it is known
that the president is not in favor of this
alternative, except as a last resource,
ury officials are not by any means con-
fdent the treasury gold repleted in this
way will long continue. It is contended
that if the plan is put in force 1t simply
means the government will be borrowing
gold at interest for the purchase of sill
yer, with no assurance that the gold SO
obtained will remain in the treasury
longer than the time necessary to take it
out. The suggestion has been made
that the secretary of the treasury has
the power to issue greenbacks in change
for gold, thus increasing the amount of
gold and increasing the volume of green
backs outstanding to the extent of the
gold thus exchanged. The treasury Of
fcials say the idea is not new one, and
has been advanced at different periods
in the past 10 days. There is no law on
the statute books more stringent than
that relating to greenbacks. The secre-
tary of the treasury has no discretion
either to increase or diminish the vol
ume of greenbacks.

Willard Predicts worse Times.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-During theclo
of the session of the last congress Henry
Willard was very anxious to have the
Sherman silver law repealed. Today he
recalled the prediction he had made at
that time, and said the people called
him an alarmist and pessimist because
he predicted financial crisis. He con-
tinued:
tThe worst has not been reached.
There will be more financial troubles
than we are having now. do not care
to alarm people, but the situation has
turned as pointed out last winter
''Would the immediate repeal of the
Sherman law help the situation now?'
ST am afraid it is too late,'' said Viii
lard; ''yet it would possibly restore
confidence. The damage has already
been done. European countries have
become alarmed because of the Ameri-
can silver policy, but the repeal would
probably avert some disasters"

Confidence Restored at Tacoma.

TACOMA, WASH, June 3.-The finan-
cial panic in Tacoma is a thing of the
past. All is quiet and confidence.
There is more money in the city than
there has been for the past two years,
brought here no doubt to meet any
emergency. There is rumor this even
ing that the Merchants National bank
sold its fine six-story stone and terra
Gotta building, corner of Eleventh and
Pacific avenue, for $195 900. If this be
true their liabilities being but little
more than double that, they will again
be upon solid footing.

information was vouchsafed at the club,
when inquiries were made late last
night, other than that DIR. Smith was
still with Booth and would remain all
night.
Edwin Booth is nearly sixty year rs of
age, having been born November 18th,
1888, in Belair, Md. His father was
the actor Junius Brutus Booth. When
quite young. Edwin travelled with his
father and played minor parts. On one
occasion sudden attack of illness pre-
vented the elder Booths appearance as
Richard III. The son supplied his
place and scored great success.
He was then but 16, but since that
time he has played the leading parts in
most of Shakespeare's plays in all parts
of America and Europe. He enjoys the
distinction of being the greatest actor of
his time. He was twice married, first
in 1860 to Miss Mary Devlin, who died
three years later, and to Miss Mary Nc
Wicker in 1869. She too is dead, having
died in 1881. He has one daughter.
Edwina.

Death by Drowning.

Mr.. A. Bills was drowned near Clarno's s
Ferry the 30th ult. On account of the
melting snow and heavy rains in The
mountains, the river was unusually
high. Tuesday morning Mr.. Bills and
his 20-year-old son came over the river
to get some young trees from Duncan
McRae, and on their return, when they
were in the middle of the river, the boat
capsized and they both went under.
They arose and swan toward the shore.
The boy, with great difficulty, gained
the bank in safety and the father was
almost to the shore when heavy tide
came and carried him back amongst the
rough waves, there to perish. Men
have been dragging the river in search
of his body ever since, but up to the
time of going to press their efforts have
been fruitless. Mr.. Bills, with his wife,
four sons and three daughters, came up
from the Willamette valley last October.
and after looking over the country, took
up homestead in Gillian county on
the John Day.-Antelope Herald.
There's good deal of guarantee busi-
ness in the store keeping of today. It's
too excessive. Or too reluctant. Half
the time it means nothing. Words
only acords.
This offer to refund the money, or to
pay reward, is made under the hope
that you won't want your money back.
and that you won't claim the reward.
OF course.
So, whoever is honest in making it,
and works-not on his own reputation
alone, but through the local dealer,
whom you know, must have something
he has faith in back of the guarantee.
The business wouldn't stand year
without it.
What is lacking is confidence. Back
of that, what is lacking is that clear
honesty which is above the average
practice
DR.. Pierce's medicines are guaranteed
to accomplish what they are intended
to do, and their makers give the money
back if the result isn't apparent.
Doesn't it strike you that medicine,
which the makers have SO much conf
dence in, is the medicine for you?

THE AMICK DISCOVERY.
Successful Tests Made with Patients In
the Last Stages of Consumption.


Successful Tests Made with Patients In
the Last Stages OF Consumption.
New YORK, June 3.-The Recorder
will detail tomorrow the cure of several
consumptive patients at Wards island,
under the direction of the city authori-
ties. AS only charity patients in the
last stages of consumption are admitted
there, the Recorder claims the cure, for
which it awarded DIR. w. R. Amick, of
Cincinnati, 81 900, has accomplished
something miraculous. Itsays also that
the Cincinnati doctor has agreed to
keep the hospital supplied with medi-
cines sufficient for all its consumptives
at his own expense. AS only third stage
cases are taken there, no more severe
test could be invited. 1t is now gener-
ally admitted that the Amick discovery
is certain specific in the earlier stages
of consumption. Amick has never here
tofore claimed that it would cure more
than 20 per cent. of third stage con-
sumptives. In this test just made by
the city three out of four were either
cured or astonishingly benefited. 1t is
easy enough for any sufferers from the
disease to test the new discovery through
their family physician, for Amick sends
medicine for the purpose free of cost,
and invites impartial test of it by the
medical profession everywhere.

AN OLD FACE IN A NEW eU1sE.

At every session of the Legislature for
ten years certain measure has popped
up, and always toward the end of the ses-
sion. The familiar face comes up now in
new cap and feathers. 1t is a little bill of
eleven lines, providing that no city or
other authority shall impose tax upon
the dram shop, in excess of So 80 u
month.
a few years ago this bill proposed that
no liquor license should exceed S. IS a
month; then it reappeared with the
limit raised to Sc 80 a month, and now it
is increased to Sl2 80 month, or $50 a
quarter.
1t is the OLD effort to destroy local self
government, to prevent the counties and
cities and towns from regulating the
liquor traffic as the people Immediately
affected may choose, guaranteed right
that they are supposed to have under the
Constitution.
We call the attention of believers in the
economy and justice of local sel1-govern,
ment to this new attempt to throttle it
1t does not affect this city at this time
since our license rate is below the max
imum, but the principle at the throat o
which this bill is aimed is one that ough
to be maintained-the wisdom of leaving
these matters to city, town and county
governments.

INEVITABLE CONCLUSION.

One of three things must happen to
Hawaii, annexation TO the United States,
annexation to Great Britain, or protector
ate extension by one or the other of the
two great nations named. This is upon
the assumption that independent govern
ment is out of the question, and that
Joint protectorate systems, as in Samoa,
are not successful, and are not helpful to
the people protected. Samoa is an object
lesson we cannot forget.
This assumption, we take it, must be
conceded TO be sound. There remains,
then, but the simple question of annexa-
ton or protectorate by one or the other o.
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1893-02-16

THE New York Tribune points out that
a protectorate over Hawaii is more diff
cult and perplexing than annexation.
That is true. To determine to what eX-
tent protection should go, what shall be
its form, and what it's relation to foreign
powers, involves grave difficulty. But
under annexation the people of Hawaii
simply propose to become self-govern-
ing according to the American system
to substitute republican for monarchical
methods; to become sovereigns instead OF
remaining subjects.

THE YOSEMITE WAGON ROAD BILL

THE YOSEMITE WAGON ROAD BILL.
The bill calling for an appropriation for
500, 900 to construct wagon road into the
Yosemite Valley should not pass. 1t
means that there is to be constant drain
upon the Treasury if the bill becomes a
law.
More than that. Just as soon as the
bill passes-if that misfortune should
come about-some road already built will
be put forward for sale to the State, and
the parties to whom the location of the
new road is committed will be impor-
tuned and probably prevailed upon to
buy.
The truth is that there is scarcely any
route into the valley that is not now COW
cred by a road. If we take the Coulter
Vile road from MERGED, as soon as the
State resolves to own a road and looks to
that route, DR.. McLain, who has been
subsidized two or three times the value OF
! the road, once by the State to the tune of
$4,000, will say that heis interested in the
route. and will demand that he be paid
for what remains there are of the grad
ings.
Take the Oak Flat road, and the Yo-
semte turnpike-both have been subsi-
died by the State, have been paid for
what has been built over the lines of the
grant, but those routes will be in with
claims for payment all the same.
1t ought to be understood by the Legis-
lature that private enterprise can be
trusted to take care of all matters of this
kind. Under its present management
the Yosemite Valley is as much private
property as if it had been granted to
parties who live in the valley, and while
the Commissioners may think them.
selves independent. these parties really
run the commission.
If once the State dabbles in this road
business, it will find no end to it, and the
5O.OOO will be but drop in the bucket tC
what it will be stood up to deliver.

the Governments of the United States or
Great Britain. A protectorate is unde-
sirable because always a magazine, al
ways a source of danger and international
complication. Annexation then alone
remains. and if that is to be by any, then
hard and fast it must be by the United
States.
