The farmers of this section are

We think that this section of the

Clean Up and Be Ready For the Sum-


With that suddeness which char
acterizes the change of season in
our climate, summer weather is
upon US, are We ready for it?
The balmy breezes and the beauty
of verdant landscapes, we are ready
for. Such pleasant changes from
the reign of winter and the tickle
ness of spring. are always welcome.
But the weather that clothes the
country in beauty and makes out
door life a joyous inspiration, breeds
languor and disease in the crowded
alleys and dwellings of the CITY if
filth is allowed to linger. The adj
vent of permanent warm weather
should prove an admonition to resi-
dents to finish the spring house
cleaning and to the authorities to
enforce the spring street clean,ngas
quickly as possible. There should
be no filthy cellars or houses to
breed disease among unsuspectlng
inmates and no filthy alleys. streets
or cesspools to breed contagion and
scatter it among the clean and the
unclean alike.
The proverbial ounce of preven-
ton is, in dhis case, worth not a
pound, but Il ton of cure. Let our
city authorities, let our health
board, and last, but by no mdraer
of means least. let our housekeepers
see to it that their premises are
clean, that no decayed or decaying
vegetable matter, no purifying
meat and no damp cellars exist as
tempting invitations to the germs
of deadly disease.

Mrs. S. A. Laughlin and her daugh-

charge of the sixteen young ladies
who participated in the Fan Drill,
which was the first on the program
all of whom acquitted themselves
creditably and reflected credit on
their instructor.
The participants in the Prohibi-

Misses Annie Marley. Prucella

to Miss Wolf in Il neat and appro-
pirate manner and the contestant
received the gift in a modest and
becoming manner with no show of
exultation over her rivals who all
had rendered their selections with
ability such as is seldom witnessed
by young misses of from ID to 10
years old. All the contestants ac-
cording to the decision of the
judges, only varied from one to
three lower than the successful one.

Senators Sherman and Vest had a

The former claimed 1t was comprom.

At this point In the debate Senator

capital and corporations.

The relations of banks to the peo-
pie In this age of the world should be
exempli6ed by strict honesty on the
one hand and unbounded confidence
on the other. If the individual were
to loan his money to private parties
he would require the best security, and
the law protects his interests; but
when he makes deposit in a bank,
aside from the certificate signed by
the cashier or president, he is without
recourse, except so far as the directors
are responsible under our statute. If
the institution suspends he may lose
the amount, or he debarred from the
use of his mouey for some time. But,
perhaps, there is less money lost by
depositors in banks than by the same
persons investing In speculative enter
prises, or by loanlng to individual :.
With the strict law which the govern
ment enforces in regard to national
banks there can be no doubt of their
safety, and the example of the Port
land savings bank should not cause
people to lose confidence in these in
stitutions.

Governor Pennoyer has sent letters
to the different members of the legis-
lature, requesting their opinions re-
garding the advisability of calling a
special session of that body to pass a
law for the stay of executions on judg-
ments. He thinks this will be abso-
lutely necessary, especially for Eastern
Oregon, without congress passes a free
coinage law. The governor is a silver
worshipper, and he believes bounti--
full supply of this deprecated coin
would cure all the evils now suffered
by the country. While the region
east of the mountains is in no worse
condition than other portions of the
northwest, as statesman and patriot
he would be held in lasting remem-
brauce by the producers of the Inland
Empire, if, instead of going wild over
unlimited coinage of the white metal,
he would use his energy in endeavor-
ing to persuade his brother Democrats
to endorse the Mckinley tariff law.
This would work solution of all the
evils under which our wool and wheat
growers are now suffering.

was rendered., thanked the arbitrators
tor the close and intelligent attention
they brought to bear upon the case.
Lord Hsnnen and Senator Morgan IN re-
plying to the president of the tribunal

that the regulations decided upon by the

In the senate, on August 9th, Hon.
j. N. Dolph, of this state, fully out
lined the position of the Republican
party when he said. "the present con-
dition is the logical result of the sue
cess at the presidential election of No
vember last of the party which de-
clares that protection of American In.
dustries is robbery, and stands
pledged to reverse the policy" He
is assuming the proper stand when he
states that the Republican party viii
not allow the charge to go unchal-
lenged that the silver purchase clause
of the Sherman act is the cause of the
present business d-press' on. While
the members of the party may vote for
the repeal of this clause, they will fol-
low the lead of the senator from Ore
gon and "hew 10 the line let the CHIPS
fall where they may" The party OF
tariff reform must be prepared to de
fend its position, not only before con-
gress, but before the hundreds OF
thousands of starving laoorers in this
country, and Republicans will see
that i, is placed on the defensive.

In a State of Siege.

VALPARAISO, Aug. 17-Martial law,
which was yesterday proclaimed in the
city of Buenos Ayres, has been extended
to all ports OF the republic OF Argentina,
and state of siege has been declared
for 60 DAYS. Notwithstanding the fact
that the federal troops control the city of
La Plata, it is in state of confusion
bordering on anarchy. Murders and rob-
berries were frequent last night and tie
military authorities seemed unable to
prevent them.
News received state that Valentine
Virasoro, who was made minister of for
eign affairs in the reorganized Argentina
cabinet, has resigned. 1t Is not known
whether any other members of the cab
met intend resienlng.
The latest kilograms from La Plata say
that 1000 rebels have been disarmed, and
that the work of disarmament will be
pushed with the greatest possible speed

have invaded Uruguay, from Corrientes
They were driven back by the Uruguayan

their way through the front door OF the

messenger, E. P. Ferguson, could collect
himself, they overpowered him, took his
revolver away, and in few moments
compelled him to open the way safe,
from which they distracted the val

brought the engine to halt. The rob-

Senator Mitchell has introduced a
joint resolution in congress declaring
that it is the sense of the two ma
tional legislative bodies that no tariff
changes be made during the next reg
ular session. If this Is adopted by a
decisive majority vote it will do more
to re establish public confidence than
the repeal of the silver-purchase
clause. Factories would again start
with full lists of employees, capital
would invest In enterprises and bread
winners would find work at remuner-
ative wages. At any rate it will
furnish test which will cause Demo
Gratis to declare themselves for or
against the American policy of pro-
lection. and the country will know by
the passage or defeat of this resolu-
ton whether Democracy stands as
solid on the Chicago platform as 1t
did last fall.

Rioting I'm New York.

New YORK, Aug. 1.-THE first of the
riots which the labor leaders and Others
have deem predicting for some time as 9
result of the large number out of EN-
ployment, occurred this morning. A
crowd of more than 5000 men attacked
Wslhalla hall on Orchard street because
admittance was denied them. They
smashed the pla'e-glats windows into
atoms and forced in the door, which had
been turned against them, and forcibly
took possession of the place. Several
persons were cut by flying glass All
sorts of missiles were used, sud finally
police reserves from Eldred-street station
were ordered to the scene and succeeded
In partly dislodging the crowd. Those
forming the crowd were mostly Hebrews,
and represented principally the clothing
trades. At last accounts the hall was
about half filled with men, determined
to hold meeting at any cost.
