HE'S GENERAL BEEBE NOW.
Governor Lord HonOrs the Popular First
Regiment Colonel.

SALEM, Or, February Ex-Governor
Lord yesterday notified the senate that
he had appointed Colonel Charles F..
Beebe, of the First regiment, to the
brigaGier-generalship of the Oregon state
militia. The senate promptly confirmed
the appointment, and official notitica-
ton will doubtless be sent to Colonel
Beebe to-day. Numerous congratula-
tory kilograms were dispatched to Colo
mel Beebe yesterday, and the uniform
expression in militia circles is one of
pleasure at the appointment.
Without apparent effort beyond care
full and mpetent attention to the duties
Of his position and his innate natural
courage Colonel Beebe has made him.
Sc very popular among all who have
been brought in contact with him. lie
is generally regarded as having been the
principal factor in the development of
the First regiment to its present excel
lent high condition of efficiency. Since
his election as its colonel in July, 1887,
he has devoted his energies to the unfit
cation of the battalion, and the crea-
ton of a regiment out of what had prev
ously beeen practically but an associa-
ton OF different companies. He had a
difficult task before him, but one which
his zeal, long experience and intimate
knowledge OF military affairs eminently
fitted him to perform. 1t is presumed
that Colonel Beebe's duties as brigadier-
general will begin as soon as his COM
mission is made out and forwarded to
him. 1t has been said the appointment
cannot take effect until the expiration
of the term of General Compson, and
that the law provides that the brgadier-
generals term shall cover four years,
and that the Office can only be declared
vacant as the result of the resignation
or impeachment of the incumbent. 1t
is presumed, however, that Governor
Lord would not move in the matter
without being fully informed as to the
law and the extent of his authority.

started her horse at gallop and was
joined by Miss Lucy Pearson, the
chosen member of the club, on a wheel.
They passed Eighty-fourth street at
brealinecll speed, and thence down the
drive to Seventy-second street. For
the first six blocks neither had the adj
vantage, but gradually Miss Johnson
took the lead. At tSeventy-second street
she was three good horse lengths in the
lead. 1t was the intention to turn here
and return to Eighty-fourth street, but
the interference of n policeman pre-
vented. He ordered them to stop, and,
when they did so, threatened both with
arrest if they did not decrease their
speed. While the argument was taking
place the other members of the club
pulled up and decided to call the race
run and the winner Miss johnson.
The suit which Miss johnson wore
was of seal-brown broadcloth. The
boomers were rather more on the
knickerbocler order, while the coat
was long, covering the hips entirely.
1t was lined with striped silk of light
shade, which showed when it blew
back. Her limbs were covered with n
pair of leggings of the same shade and
material. The collar of the coat was
quite deep, and was cut low so as to
display n wide eXpanse of white shirt
front. A red neclltie was the only
color, except that in her cheeks.
Asked what she thought of the advan-
tage of riding astride over the old
method, she said:
"There is every advantage. 1t gives
the rider n freer and easier mount.
There is not that cramped feeling that
comes with riding side-saddles. When
l FIRST began to ride, before I took to
the wheel at all, 1 rode side-saddle and
was thrown. That unnerved me, and
abandoned it and took up cycling in
stead. In the country, lately, L was
induced to put my wheel against the
fence one day and mount a horse
astride. l was so well pleased that
practiced every day"

SOUND MONEY SAYINGS.

-. 1t is reported that the silver dem
ocrats of Ohio intend to wage fight
for the white metal during the present
state campaign in spite of the state con-
vention in favor of the single gold
standard.
"A free silver show advertisement
mentions Richard p. Bland as ''presi-
Dental possibility" This is supposed
to be Dicks strongest drawing card.
Possibility in this connection is good
Galveston Tribune.
....When the free silverites come
into power any able-bodicd editor can
go out every morning and pick wheel
barrowfu of silver dollars from the
gooseberry bushes. And wheelbar-
row full of silver dollars would buy
him sandwich and perhaps piece Of
pie.-Louisville Courier-J ournal.
.... 1t is estimated that the gold prod
uct of Colorado for 1895 will show an
increase of from three million to four
million dollars, which means that the
industrious and enterprising people
of that state are materially assisting in
the work of solving the silver problem
by helping to increase the supply of
a better sort of money.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.

normally excited, goaded to fury Ivy the
ebb of the tide of ignorance and preiu-

had launched their bark, see all things

them. Nothing short of the bowling

ass, the prancing of the mad bull suits
their excited craving for tomfoolery.

FARMERS AT ODDS.
Split In the National Congress on tho sii-
ver Question.

vcr Question.
ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. i5.-Soon after
the Farmers National congress, which
met here last week and has been hold
ing daily sessions since, resumed
its sitting Monday morning a
sensation was sprung in the form
of a fight on free silver, which
resulted in the complete de-
feat of the 10 to l forces. by vote of
25i OLA to 104 5-l4 the congress refused
to insert the words lat ratio not to
exceed 16 to 1" in a resolution asking
congress to use both gold and silver on
a parity, and calling for an interna-
tional conference on the monetary
question.
The resolution was one which had
just come from the committee on reso-
lutions and was reported favorably. 1t
was offered by Mr.. j. G. offut,
prominent delegate from In
diana. In substance it depre-
Gated the present condition of
finance in this country, and called
upon the president of the United States
to call an international congress Of all
nations willing to unite in the equal
use of both gold and silver. Then the
free-silver delegates wanted the para
graph changed so as to read willing
to unite in the equal use of both gold
and silver at a ratio not to exceed

Numbers of delegates jumped to
their feet, and it was soon evident that

amendment by vote of 25l ola to

The states known as the silver states
favored the amendment and the east,
the north and the south voted almost
solidly against it. The fight was made
squarely on the merits of the question
and the issue was in no way clouded
with parliamentary technicalities.
Those delegates who favored the
free and unlimited coinage OF
silver at 16 to voted foi
the amendment and it was
lost by majority of 147. The victory
of the "sound-money" element in the
congress was emphasized later in the

HIS ULTIMATUM.
Governor of Arkansas Will Either Pre-
vent the Big Fight or Resign.


LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct. 15.-The
United Press correspondent found the
governor Monday morning thoroughly
determined to prevent the prize fight
at all hazards. He says that the
action of the circuit judge and
the sheriff of Garland county
makes it now matter of state concern,
and renders him primarily responsible
for its suppression. He is still hopeful
that those in charge of the
prize-fghting enterprise will aban-
don all further attempt to bring it
about here. If, however, this does not
prove the case, their efforts can only
be interpreted to mean that they in
tend to resist with force the efforts of
the officers to prevent it. In
this aspect of affairs the prize
fight will drop out of view and the
contest will be one between the power
of the state and that of the invading
forces of the prize-fghting contin-
gent The governor has no doubt
of the result of a conflict be-
tween these. That the authority
and dignity of the state will be main.
tanned goes without saying. If this
should not prove TO be the case and
the prize fight take place in spite of
the efforts of the officers and
the people, the governor says he will
resign his office and in future leave the
enforcement of the laws and resist
ance to invasion to more competent
hands
