Tho Baker County Fr.tr,c,d..

The killing of Robert Tarter by his
brother Daniel, which occurred in Eagle
valley, Baker county. last Saturday, is
creating considerable excitement in that
section. 1t is said the killing was pre-
meditated, but little can be learned about
it until the facts are brought out at the
trial. No serious trouble appeared to
exist between the brothers prior to the
murder, outside of a little difference in
connection with law suit between Bob
and his father in which Dan and Alex
took sides with the old gentleman. Bob
always showed disposition to give rather
than to receive; especially was this the
case toward Dan. When Dan was in
trouble in Washington Bob spent several
hundred dollars ia his endeavor to assist
him, and ever since his purse has been
open to every member Of the family
when necessity required.

An Ingenious swindle.

A "dealer in art" in Great Britain is
advertising portraits Of the queen, done
in colors, for half a crown and shillings
apiece, and sending to his dupes postage
stamps, which are printed with the
queens head. 1t is thought he may not
be within the reach OF the law, as the
stamps fill the description. An earlier
genius sold pennies at q crown apiece,
advertising them as "bronze medallions,
with portrait Of the sovereign in his re-
lief"

WOOL AND WHEAT.

Boston Herald: The decline in wool
from tariff to free wool basis will be a
light one. Ohio wool sold in this market
at ~ cents is figured by experts in both
foreign and domestic wool to be about
down to the present prices of Australian
wool, duty free, with this difference,
that the Australian wool is all carefully
skirted and relieved of the elements
that cause great shrinkage, while the
Ohio wool is not skirted or relieved of
very heavy strinkage substances. The
latter wool is also generally done up with
very heavy and Objectionable string,
while Australian wool is tied with very
fine hard cord, and very little of it.
Other wool merchants OF ex experience and
excellent judgment contend that Ohio
wool at 90 cents would not be put down
to free wool basis. But the discussion
of the exact figures is not SO much the
province of this article as is the state
ment that domestic wool is rapidly ap-
preaching the free wool basis, and that
Boston buyers feel that they must buy
the present clip at figures that mean
free wool basis.
San Francisco Chronicle The stocks
OF wool now in warehouses in this city
are simply enormous, the aggregate be-
ing upwards OF 10000 bales, but there is
absolutely no demand and prices are
nominal. All the wool has not yet come
to hand, but commission men are notify.
ing growers to cease shipping, owing to
the depression Of trade. In Boston and
other eastern wool centers the same de-
gree of inactivity prevails. Private sd
vices received in this city during the
pact week announce the closing OF mills
and consequent discharge of workmen
and number of failures. Manufac-
turers are buying no stock except what
is actually required to ill standing
orders. One Of the largest manufac
turers OF Norwich, Conn, who usually
buys between 2,O00,OOO and 5000, 900
pounds of California wool, has shut down
his establishment.
Seattle Telegraph: A strong move
ment in wheat has begun and unusually
large quantities of that grain are now
going forward to Europe. The price is
low, but the greater part Of the loss
which has resulted from speculative hold
ings will fall upon the spectators. The

Sails MajeStically Into the lnnel
HarbOr,
Largest and Longest Ship Ever Berthed
in Honolulu.

At about 10 o'clock this morning
the o. u O. 5. 5. Oceanic from Japan
and China was telephoned off Wal
amaze, and long before noon people
flocked to the city front, as reports
had been current that she would
come into port, the bay near Pacific
Mail wharf having been dredged to
a depth of twenty-eight feet within
the past few weeks. DR.. Trousseau
and Pilot Shepard left in the doc
tors launch about 1l:30 o'clock and
met the steamer off the reef. A signal
had been arranged with Mr.. Suhr,
of II. Hackfeld ~ Co, agents, that
if the steamer was coming in Capt.
Smith would fly the flag on the fore
mast at half-mast. The dredge was
still working near the wharf. Eager
eyes were strained to catch glimpse
of the flag, and promptly at 12:54
the pennant was seen to drop, and a
shout was sent up from shore. Mr..
Paul Smith, superintendent of the
dredge, Immediately set to work and
seven and half minutes later the
huge machine and its pontoons were
out of the way.
The Oceanic headed in the pas
sage and crossed the bar at 1:1O,
drawing 24a feet aft and 20 feet 10
inches forward. Four minutes later
she passed the lighthouse.
The Oceanic is an iron 4-masted
steamer, built at Belfast in 1870 by
Harland IL Wolff. She is 420 feet
long, 400 feet beam, and 23.4 feet
deep. Her registered tonnage is 1908
tons and net tonnage 244O. She is
the largest and longest vessel that
has ever entered Honolulu harbor.
The steamer was delayed two days
in Hongkong, having to go on the
dry doc k to have repairs made to
her shaft. The Oceanic will leave
for San Francisco at o'clock to-
morrow morning, after discharging
about four hundred tons of freight
for this port. There will be bitter
disappointment to some of the
Honolulu intending passengers, as
the Oceanic's berths are full, and
but few if any will be taken from

MR.. THURSToN IN CHICAGO.

In this issue will be found report
of Mr.. Thurston's address before the
Union Club in Chicago. 1t bears on
its face evidence of being correct
report, because it is Thurston all
over. "The queen called out 700
armed men to try to force the consti-
tuition down our throats, is sam
pie of the orators best style, with
his silent partner" prompting him.
The host in buckram that assailcd
Falstaff has at last its parallel. Mr..
Thurston mingles events that are
distinct and times that are compare
lively far apart with a facility that
brings his well-known talents into
bold relief. If the queen had ever
700 armed men at her command it
was not to force the constitution
down peoples throats, but after she
had receded from her dangerous
position on that score and when she
desired only to maintain law and
order. That 400 men defeated an
overwhelming force of native sol
diery on that occasion is not fact
for history but a product of the
orators fecund imagination. The
most honorable example of true
courage in those days was afforded
by the brave native policeman, who
persisted in doing his duty, while a
half dozen guns were leveled at him.
until he was shot down. Mr.. Thurs,
tons emphatic disclaimer of planters
connection with the revolution has
been answered before. 1t simply
destroys the claim made by himself
and the other commissioners, when
they arrived in the United States,
that nine-tenths of the capital in
vested in Hawaiian industry was at
the back of the revolution.

Patriot Cullom.

Shelby NJ. Cullom is a flag patriot.
He uses the banner of his own, his
native land, rs charity is used-to
cover a multitude of sins. The pre-
tcrnaturally patriotic soul of Shelby
NJ. Cullom is writhing in agony and
indignation because the stars and
stripes no longer float over the capi-
tol OF the Sandwich islands. In his
excess of horror Culium struggles to
eXclaim: u am not surprised that
the present democratic administra-
ton should order The stars and stripes
to be hauled down. They have taken
the flag down whenever they had the
opportunity, and there Was time
when they had it down in the stat
for quite awhile. The dominant pow
er in the democratic party caused the
flag to come down then in the south
ern states, and now they are perform
ing the same act elsewhere. 1t is not
the first time, by any means, that
democrats have ordered down the
flag OF this country"
This is the usual exhibition made
by flag patriots OF the Cullom kind.
1t is noteworthy that flag patriots are
those who never followed the flag into
any position OF danger. When the
flag of the union was imperilcd Cul-
lom was a young republican in Iii
nois, who, if he had Il spark of genu-
inc patriotism in his soul, would have
gone to the defense of that flag as did
ii certain John A. Logan, who was
Il democrat. Cullom was able-bodied,
but he had no stomach for powder.
He wished to defeat rebels at exceed
ingly long range. He thought the
best place for him was in IL comfort
able Office somewhere. He was seated,
remote from danger, in the house of
representatives at Springfield while
democrats like Logan, Palmer, Black,
and many others were following the
flag along the battle line, and he has
been in Office ever since, aspiring at
times even to the presidency, and
always protesting the profoundest
devotion to IL flag which he had not
the patriotism to follow south of the
Ohio river.
There are numerous mouth patriots
of the Cullom stripe. The banner is
one of their stage properties. When
ever they thank they have something
personally to gain they come out into
the open and wave their flag. Judg-
ing Cullom by his lack OF spirit dur
ing the war Of the rebellion, it may
he fancied that il he were in the
neighborhood Of Honolulu at this
time he would never leave the pro-
lection Of II frigate's guns nor expose
himself TO any situation OF danger.
The American flag is down in Ha-
waii because it ought never have been
up in Hawaii. 1t would hardly re-
dound to the credit Of this mighty
republic that negotiations for annex
alton were conducted with provi-
sional government maintained by a
naval force Of the republic itself.
Annexation ought not to occur in any
event unless il is the wish Of the
islanders. Ii the provisional govern
ment can maintain itself it has no
need Of the American flag. If 1t can
not maintain itself it ought not 10
