The Republican press and
speakers are entirely justified in
denouncing the failure of the
Democratic party to carry out its
pledges of tariff reform. Notlin
the history of the country has
there been a more shameless be-

Every true Democrat and
ever sincere reformer knows that
this bill in its present form and
as it will be submitted to the con-
ference, falls far short of the
consummation for which we have
long labored; for which we have
suffered defeat without discour-
agement; which in its anticipa-

our day of triumph, and which
in its promise of Accomplishment
is so interviewer with Democratic
pledges and Democratic successes
that our abandonment of the
cause or the principles upon
which it rests seems PARTY PER-
F1DY AND PARTY D1sHoNoR.
1T must be admitted that no
tariff measure can accord with
Democratic principles and prom
ises or bear a genuine Democratic
badge that does not provide for
free raw materials. In these
circumstances it may well excite
our wonder that Democrats are
willing to depart from this, the
most Democratic of all tariff
principles, and. that the incon-
sistent absurdity of such a pro-
posed departure should be
emphasized by the suggestion
that the WOOL of the farmer be

The Goat Isn't Appreciated.

The relations of the goat to man
kind are in certain ways peculiar.
The creature has long been subju-
gated, probably having come into the
human family before the dawn OF
history. 1t has been almost as wide
" disseminated, among barbarian
and civilized peoples alike, as the
sheep, 1t readily cleaves to the
household and exhibits much more
intelligence than the other members
of our focks and herds. 1t yields
good milk, the flesh is edible, though
in the old animals not savory, and
the hair can be made to vary in a
larger measure than any of our ami
mails which are shorn. Yet this crea-
ture has never obtained the place in
relation to man to which it seems en-.

occurred in the vicinity of Love Grove.

on their way to Biggs, each with a load of
wheat. While thev were watering at the

several ribs, crushing his shoulder, and
causing internal injuries, He was at one e

he received every attention. Drs. Beers

be done for him, and early Sunday morning
he passed into the beyond.

A rirne For Renectiln.


This Is the season for poetic imagery.
The frost of autumn has tinged the fol-
iage with most beautiful TINS, and the
air is calm and peaceful as dream of
paradise and heaven. Like the evening
OF well spent life nature seems to be
preparing for delightful rest from weary
toll. The stream flows sluggish through
glen and forest, and the falling leaves
seem symbolic of that time when the
BRAIN shall grow tired OF thought. and the
honest, generous impulses of the heart
shall seek rest and rewards in Gods eter-
nal heaven. In spring nature is active
in the sprouting blade of grass, the bud
ding flower and In vegetation breaking
through the crust of mother EARTH Dur
ing summer the activity of growth and
development continues. The tiny blade
grows to the stalwalt stalk, the twig to
the giant of the forest, the spring sends
forth Its rivulet to wander through mead
ows green with the blush of constant life
but when autumn comes, the heart of ma
ture beats slower. the blood flows slower
aud all animated creation seems
tired and desirious of change. 1t Is a
time for cogltation; for reverie and re-

that any person has disappeared IN this Sec

kger Kurtz had charge of the express car
that carried the money stolen. from
Portland. He proceeded on his way to
Huntington, and on his return trip, was
yesterday morning relieved at The
Dalles and put in charge OF the Office
there. Agent Hills remova apparently
indicates that his conduct Of the Office
at The Dalles was not satisfactory. Mr..
Eugene Shelby, agent OF the com oany
in this city, says that Hill was removed
pending an investigation of his Office,
He may be relnstated."
Mr.. F. N. Hill, has been agent OF the
Pacific Express Company in this city
for number of years past, and more
concientious business man cannot be
found anywhere. 1t will be a matter of
great regret to his many friends in this
city il the robbery, which he deplores as
much as any one, should result in his
removal from the position of trust he
has SO worthily filled. There is not one
man in hundred that would believe a
building could be opened, a strong treas
ure box broken open and lao pounds of
specie carried away inside OF few min
utes; but such was the fact last Satur-
day evening. A very improbable occur
renee like this cannot be ordinarily
guarded against, and Mr.. Hill acted like
ninety-nlne men out OF o hundred would
under similar circumstances.
