THE BEAUTIFUL COLUMBIA.
Graphic Description of Scenery Between
The Dalles and Portland--Kind
Treatment by the Omcers
the Boats.

There is no beauty in bud or blossom
until gazed upon with loving eye, so
we suppose in the ancient of days the
Indian piled his light canoe on the lordly
Columbia and saw no beauty there, but
at length some poet of nature on pleasure
bent took a sail up her blue waters, saw
and noted the charm of river, tree ar d
shore and then poured forth the whole in
immortal story, and since then the most
matter of fact individual has bsen un-
able to take the trip from Portland over
the Rhine of the West to The Dalles
without seeing beauty evesSwhere.
few mornings ago we stepped on
board the Dalles City at the Portland
wharf en- route for The DalIes. 1t was a
few minutes before six, and Oregon's s
metropolis had not yet awakened to the
full activities of the day. The electric
lights were still burning, while the sky
wore dark frown that told US we must
not look for the sun for full hour
"All aboard, sir" was sounded at six
sharp and we steamed away to be de-
lighted by the pleasing and varying
shadow effects along the river. Many
boats were crowded along the banks,
each carrying Its colored lanterns that in
the gray dawn shone like the bright eyes
of some sea monster, while the electric
lights from the city cast long trailing
silver streams that seemed to be running

The rumor of the sultan's assassina-
ton causes little surprise. Although
the report lacks confirmation there are
excellent reasons for believing it true.
The discontent and intrigues, which
from time to time have been discovered
within the imperial palace, indicated
that opportunity was all that was
wanted for the deed to be done. The
assassination of Abdul Hamid will cause
neither the CONSERVATION nor regret that
the death of any civilized ruler would
have occasioned. Turkey has long ago
forfeited her place in the esteem OF
nations. Her dissolution may be de-
layed, but it is no less sure in coming.
The only thing that prevents an imme-
diate breaking up of the empire ia that
the division of the spoils has not been
settled.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1895
THE PHILADELPHIA INCIDENT.

The Holmes case is unending in sem
sations. The plot which District Attor-
ney Graham has unearthed, whereby
Holmes lawyer, Shoemaker, hoped by
the aid of fictitious affidavit, to cave
his clients life, was most diabolical
one, and shows to what extent human
conscience may be deadened to gain a
coveted point. The exposure of the
offending lawyer was complete, and the
people of Philadelphia will expect to see
summary justice dispensed.
A clean judiciary is one of the safe
guards of the nation, but such condi-
tion will be hard of realization when
discredit falls upon the bar from which
the Judiciary is taken. In the large
cities it has become common to look
upon lawyer who makes sole business
of defending criminals with feelinge not
altogether of trust, and 1t is such deeds
as that of Shoemaker which has caused
this feeling. Not only do we hope that
the offender in this instance will be pun
ished, as he richly deserves, but that
others who may do similar deeds may
be caught at it.
The American bar contains some of
the brightest, purest and most trust
worthy of the nations citizens, and any
one who has noted the services rendered
by these eminent men, dislikes to see
the profession brought in any disrepute
by the actions of unworthy members.
The lawyer is minister of justice, and
is under as solemn obligation to the
state as to the client whom he serves.
The method of admitting attorneys 10
the bar has been too loose, and the re-
cult is that unworthy men have OBJ
tanned places in the ranks of lawyers.
The Oregon Bar Association is doing
good work in trying to weed out men
who are considered undesirable, and the
work should be aided by imposing
greater instructions at the start.

 With the advance of 90 cents a ton in iron the coal miners in the employment of the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company will receive an advance of 2k cents ton according to their contract with the company
 This increase brings their wages up to 45 cents ton, the highest price ever paid in this district. A year ago when the strike was settled the sliding scale was adopted, the miners at Pratt mines and Blocton to receive 371a cents a ton, those at Blue Creek 32h With each ad- vance of 30 cents in iron the miners were to get 215 cents per ton additional.

AT O'BRlEN'S.

Beginning Monday night for a solid week, with two matinees, Mckee Rankin, assisted by MT. and Mrs. Sidney Drew and strong company, will appear at O'Brien's. The Memphis commercial- Appeal says of the company
 The second night of the Mckee Ran kin-Drew Comedy company's engage ment at the Grand was marked by somewhat smaller audience than greeted 1t on the first, fact that no doubt may be attributed to the genuine summer weather prevailing. "A Legal Wreck" afforded a full measure of interest to those in attendance, the company ap- bearing to better advantage than on the previous night. The play demands more strong characters than can be essayed by MT. and Mrs. Sidney Drew. and one of them was carried very satisfactorily by MT. Rankin, whose Capt. Ed'ard smith was a splendid piece of work. The ladies of the company other than Mrs. Drew also gave more decided evidence of their fitness for stage business and re- ceived generous recognition. "A Legal Wreck" is of an entirely different order than the opening bill. It is a melodrana of heroic parts and strong emotional strains, with a vein of comedy that serves to keep Sidney Drew in his ele- ment.
 Tonight Snow Ball will be the bill, and tomorrow night, by special request, Arabian Nights is to be repeated.
 On Thursday night Memphis is to have the distinction of being made the judge of an entirely new play "The Bachelors Baby" and upon it's verdict will hinge the conclusion of the companys author ity in respect to it's future use. An Ad- ditional interest will attach to this per formance by reason of the fact that Memphan, in the person of Tom Tuther, will be in the cast. MT. Tuther will inn personate Lieut. Bob Ponsonby. He is young man of considerable histrionic talent and ability, which tends toward genuine comedy. and is also extremely popular. large and fashionable audi ence is assured.

GOLDEN-N
 >rlEDICAL> DISCOVERY.

The invention of Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y., has, during the past thirty years, made a record in the cure of bronchial, throat and lung diseases that fairly entities it to out rank all other advertised remedies for these affections. Especially has it manifested its potency in curing consumption fthe lungs.
 Not every case, but we believe
 Fully o8 Per Cent.
 of all cases of consumption, i'll all its earlier stages, are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, even after the disease has progressed so far as to induce repeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough with copious approximation. .Cinclud- ing tubercular 1natter), great loss of flesh and extreme cancellation and weakness.
 Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases reported to us as cured by Golden Med ical Discovery were genuine cases of that dread and fatal disease? You need not take our word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best and most experienced home physicians, who have no interest whatever in mis- representing them, and who were often strongly prejudiced and advised against a trial of "Colden Medical Discovery, !" but who have been forced to confess that 1t surpasses, ill curative power over this fatal malady, all other medicines with which they are acquainted Nasty cod liver oil and its filthy "emulsions and mixtures, had been tried ill nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to bene- fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey, and various preparations of the hypophos- phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
 The photographs of large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh and kindred fnaladies, have been ski1lfully reproduced in a book of 16o pages which will be mailed to you, on re- ceipt of address and six cents in stamps. You can then write those cured and learn their experience.
