CITY ELECTION.

The coming municipal election is
one Of more than usual Importance.
as the mayor and councilmen, under
the new charter, have not only the
management of the city affairs,
but the appointment of recorder and
marshal. Citizens should watch this
annual event with great deal of
anxiety, and the election on Monday,
the 18th inst, will be of unusual inter-
est as being the first one under the
new regime. Taxpayers are directly
interested in the economical admins
tration of city affairs, and to attain
this object the proper men should be
placed in nomination for the offices.
The nominations are always postponed
to too late q date, and the election
takes place too soon thereafter to insure
wise discrimination in the ballot.
There are but ten days to the time
when the choice will be made, and the
subjec. of nominees should be
thoroughly. Next Monday
evening the primary should be held, if
there are not other conventions for
nominating purposes planned, and
then barely eight days will elapse be.
fore the ballot will be cast. To citi-
zens Of The Dalles there is nothing of
greater Importance than a good and
careful city government, and our peo.
Pile have been entirely to negligent
this year. We hope that this matter
will receive the most careful attention,
and that there will be no regret in the
'uture on account Of the neglect or
apathy that have been manifested.

DIVERSITY OF OPINION.


The homiletic discourses of the press
of this country will be diff
ficult to follow. One claims free
silver as the panacea for all the ills to
which flesh is heir; another that moth
ing should be taxed but land; then
comes the free-trade advocate, and the
prohibition organ. To decide which
is the best doctrine could only be done
by actual experiment. AS far as the
currency is concerned there never was
q better, safer or more convenient
system in operation in any country,
and any change would work
injury. The monetary policy pur-
sued by this government Is perfect
and could not be improved. Regarding
taxation on land alone, 1t is simply
theory, and experiments are very haz-
ardous in we'll established governments.
Prohibition may be very beneficial,
but demonstrations of the doctrine
have proved inadequate to cure the
evils caused by the use Of Intoxicating
liquors. The better plan for the patri-
otic citizen to adopt is to study well
the history of nations, become
thoroughly acquainted with the insti-
tutions Of his own country, and then
exercise common sense in forming his
opinion with which party he should
affiliate. By all means he should re-

This afternoon, at $3.50, a warehouse,

Roland Yeend, manager. was so Sc
verely burned that he will die. The
building, was a large two-story one,
with corrugated iron sides. 1t was

niture, which were also burned.

in the second story. which was used

about years old, struck a match.
which ignited some shavings, and the
fire rapidly spread to quantity OF ma
chinery oil. The children gave the
alarm and Yeend rushed upstairs to
save them. He hurried them out and
then started to extinguish the fire. but
the flames spread with such rapidity
that he was forced to retire. He
rushed downstairs to save the COM
pany's books and to lock the safe; he
then rushed out of the Office door, but
the flames were coming so fiercely that
his clothing caught fire. He rushed
out into the middle of the street and
fell. Medical assistance soon arrived
and it was found that the flames had
burned off every particle of his cloth
ing and eaten into his body, the face
and scalp being literally cooked. He
was removed to his home, and at last
accounts was alive, but there Is no
chance of recovering.

Affairs of the Dominion.

SAULT STE. MARIE, Ont, June 12.-
The new Canadian canal will be for
mally opened tomorrow. The contracts
for the canal and locks were made in
Novea ber, 1888. The water was first
admitted September 10, 1894. The
total length of the canal across St.
Mary's island is 1000 feet, or from the
eastern to the western extremities of
the piers 5000 feet. With its ap-
proaches the total distance is 8! miles.
The lock chamber is 800 feet in length,
it's width go feet, with depth of water
sufficient to pass vessals of 20 feet
draught. At a point about 1900 feet
above the lock it is crossed by swing
ing bridge, over which the railroad
systems of Canada and the United
States find accommodation. The work
altogether cost about S4,000,0Q0.

INFATUATIoN AND DEATH.
A Peculiar Case of Suicide in San

A Peculiar Case of Suicide in San Jose.
SAN JOSE, Cal, June 13.-A strange
case of suicide came to the attention of
Coroner Secord late last night, the
young lady taking her life being
Amelia Reihnelt, an Austrian girl of
about twenty-five years, employed as
waitress in the Eureka hotel, at the
broad-gauge depot. The motive which
prompted the deed was dependency,
resulting from prospective separation
from her young lady friend and room
mate, Miss Gussie Munson, another
employe at the hotel. She fired two
bullets into her temple and died in
stantly. Either wound would have
been fatal. The young woman had
prepared herself for death by bathing
and dressing herself neatly, and then,
standing in the middle of the floor of
her sleeping-room, she pulled the trig-
ger of an old-fashioned German self
cooking revolver. falling dead to the
floor. Miss Reihnelt had come from
Austria with her parents and brother,
about a year ago. The father and
mother are now farming near Capitola.
She has been in the employ OF r
Thwaits, the proprietor OF the hotel,
about five months, Soon after coming
to work she took fancy to Miss Mum
son and the feeling grew upon her and
she was not long in openly declaring
that She loved her friend more than
any one else. When Miss Munson told
the girl on Monday that she intended
leaving the house, she became des-
pondent. She grew more morose yes-
terday and today was heart broken.
Her looks betrayed her feelings, and it
1,,o Of
left the house that the girl committed
the act.
1.-THE girl was really in love with
me for several months" said Miss
Munson. "Her affection grew to that
degree that she became jealous of my
sister and other members of my family.
When indicated that intended call
ing upon my sister, even though she
was invited, she protested and thought
was unkind to her. She was con-
stantly at my side and never cared to
enter upon her duties and be apart
from me. She often told me that she
could not live without me. We were
room-mates and that is how we became
so intimate. / never feared her, but
always suspected that she was not
strong in mind. She was of q gentle
and pleasing disposition, but her jeal-
ousy was so marked that it was the
subject of much comment. When l
would talk to others the poor girl
would think she had been slighted,
and often called my attention to the
fact that should not have talked to
any one out of her presence"
Mr.. and Mrs. Thwaites state that the
young woman was dutiful and received
no company. Coroner Secord took
possession of the body, but at the
morgue he excluded the curious crowds,
and word was sent to her parents.
The suicide left no message.

Frightful Condition existing in Eastern

BOSTON, June IA reliable Amer
lean resident in Turkey, in letter
about the situation in Eastern Tur-
key, says:
THE question now pending, holds
within it the Life or death of Oriental
-Chfissianity.- these wicked and
Goddess fanatics to be permitted to
dip their swords further in the blood
of innocent Christians? Day after day
the pitiful story is told over and over
again of pillage, burning, torture,
fiscation. desecration of churches, etc.
Mere human aid is entirely insuffi-
cient. The intricacies of the political
question involved, puts the solution of
the problem far beyond our reach"
The letter gives new story concern
ing the state of Turkish prisons. In
the Bitlis prison there are seven cells,
each one large enough for 10 or II per-
sons. There are between 20 and 30
crowded into each one.
There are no sanitary arrangements.
Americans often have to drink the

of the tank where Turks perform alb

conceivable mode of punishment upon

THE ILL-FATED CoLIMA.
A Rescued Mess Boy Partially Accounts
for the Great Loss of Life.


SAN FRANCISCO, June 13.-Robert
Gonzales, mess boy of the lost C0lima,
who arrived here this morning ON the
Colon, in company with Fred Johnson,
a sailor, gives vivid description of
the fight for life made by the helpless
women and children when the ship
went down.
"When the boat began to rock and
roll, the passengers in the steerage did
not seem to think much was the mat
ter. The rolling of the ship became
more violent, and after o while the
boatswain came to the companionway
and told US to get out. Even then the
passengers did not seem to understand
that anything was serious and went
out slowly. / saw two or three of them
go to the companionway and come
back, but I did not know why, at that
time. As the boat continued to roll,
and the water began pouring in, ran
to the ladder leading to the deck and
started to 60 up. After had reached
the middle of the ladder, l saw why
the others had come back. They could
not get out. The lumber and other
stuff on the deck had shifted to such
an extent that the companionway
hatch was covered up. They were
like rats in barrel. They could not
get out, and had to wait there until
the water came in on them. Being
familiar with the ship, ran through
the kitchen and crawled up the dunn
my waiter to the pantry above. From
there made nv way into the main
cabin, which then contained two or
three feet of water. passed through
the cabin and saw women trying to
get up stairs through the matches, but
the water kept some OF them from
leaving their staterooms, and others
were unable to get up the stairs on oc-
count of the stuff that covered the
opening on deck.
1--WE tried to save the two women in |
,he boat with us, but when she cap
'ized we had to scramble for ourselves. |
The last l saw of them they were cling
.ng to an empty bucket, which held |
hem up only second and they went
lown without cry or struggle.

NEGROES LYNCHED.
"Bill" Collins Attempts to Assault Jean

"Bnl" Collins Attempts to Assault Jean
nette Allen.
LIVE OAK, Fla, June .11.-Three
more negroes have been done to death
by Lafayette county citizens for the
unpardonable sin, the assault on
white woman. The press dispatches
reported Monday that one negro, Bill
Collins. had been lynched, but rella-
BILE information just received makes Ii
certain that the lynchers claimed
three victims. The woman upon whom
the outrage was attemptrd Is Miss
Jeanette Allen, Is years old. and the
belle of Lafayette county. Friday
morning about o'clock Miss Allen
was awakened by noise in her room.
AS she moved her arm was clutched by
a negro whom she recognized as Bill
Collins, one Of her fathers employees.
The negro threatened her with urath
if she made noise, but Miss Allen
fearing fate worse than death. CAV
a scream that alarmed the household
and caused the negro to flee. Ihe
negro was chased all Friday, and al
nightfall was captured. Collins wa
identified by Miss Allen, but while
preparations were being made to lyncnl
him he escaped. All Saturday and
Saturday night the negro was pursued
The chase led through the phosphate
regions. where the negroes are numef-
Gus, and two OF Collins friends at
tempted to conceal him. These two
were shot by the pursuers, and their
bodies were placed on the railroad
| track, where they were cut to pieces
| by passing trains. The mangled re-
mains Of these negroes were dls,
covered Sunday morning. Several
trains had passed over the bodies: and
Identification was impossible. Collins
the assailant of Miss Allen. was cap
tured by the pursurers early Sunday
| morning. He was taken to the scene
of the attempted outrage and notlce:
sent out for the people to gather TO ale
the lynchers.
A great crowd assembled at moor
Sunday. The negro was taken to the
banks of the Suwanee river. There tht
negro was hanged and his body rlddlet
with bullets. The corpse was Gu
down, weighted with stones ant
thrown into the river. In e1gh
months II negroes have been put tt
death in Lafayette county for assault
on white women. In November last
young lady was assaulted, it wa
charged, by band of professlona
ravishers. For this crime eigh
negroes we're killed in the course of ;
few months. In May Miss Armstrong

PERN1CIOUS AGITATION.

The prevailing agitation of the sill
yer question is to be deplored, because
/ of its mischievous effect upon business
conditions and the influences of re-
turning prosperity. There is no neces-
sity for so much talking and maneu-
vering about matter which may safely
be left to adjust itself in the ordinary
course of events, says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat. The demand for the
solution of the so-called currency prob
lem is not at all urgent, and the politi-
| clans who are hammering away at it
could do the country much better SER
vice by letting it alone. Nothing can
be gained by premature discussion of
an issue that may be presented in an
entirely different shape year hence.
1t is not true, as these noisy agitators
would have us believe, that we are fac
ing serious emergency, and one that
calls for speedy and positive action.
AS matter of fact, the situation would
be quite satisfactory if the statesman
who are engaged in the work of max
ing speeches and calling conventions
to settle the silver controversy would
sudside and give us rest in that res
pect. There is no trouble in our flnan-
cial affairs except such as is produced
by those who thus lead the people to
suppose that there is something radi-
cally wrong, and that it can be righted
only by the operation of political ma
chinery.
1t ID easy to understand that the cir
cumstances are all favorable to gen.
eral revival OF trade and industry, if it
were not for the doubt and apprehen-
sion attending the persistent agitation
of question that is SO closely related
to all the interests of commerce, labor
and productive enterprise. All kinds
of business show signs of improve
ment, but there cannot be full resto-
ration of confidence and a free invest
ment of capital so long as the politi-
clans continue the present disturbance
about measures of value and forms of
money and processes of payment. The
majority of citizens are not technically
familiar with financial principles and
policies, and so are apt to be confused
and alarmed by loud and acrimonious
talking in that relation. We need |
nothing so much just now as political |
peace with regard to the currency.
That is the one thing for which the
country waits before entering upon a
period of substantial prosperity. |
There is no other obstruction worth
no other source of dis
couragement, no other element of
weakness. The silver question has
been thrust into prominence by arbi-
trary means and without any reason
able justification; and the return of
good times would be materially has
;ened by putting it aside and giving
ordinary business laws chance to
work in an uninterrupted way.

eER,1ANY's. CURRENCY.
wurtemburg objects to its Being Meddled
With.

LONDON, June 12.-The Berlin cor.
respondent of the Times says the min
lister of finance of Wurtemburg de-
clared that the government was con.
vinced that any attempt to meddle
with the currency would cause danger
Of most serious revolutions in econ
omics and financial affairs. He added
that none of the proposals made for
raising the price Of silver, while adher-
ing to a gold currency, can be deemed
likely to attain the object aimed at,
and that the government was opposed
to calling an international conference.
rhe lower house thereupon, by 40 to 20
votes, adopted motion requesting the
government to use its influence in the
Dundesrath to retain the gold currency.
1t is hoped this decision will be imi-
tated by the other governments. As
Won Hohenlohe only prom
lsed to call conference If all the fed
eral states agreed to such a course, it
is believed Wurtemburg's refusal will
prevent the conference.
