SWARrz GUILTY.

The trial of Swartz, for the killing by
stabbi1g of his own son, has resulted in
his conviction of murder in the second
degree; the fact that the father was
drunk was the only thing that saved him
from hanging.
Now if the supreme court will not at
tempt to find an excuse for reversing the
case and the governor will not interfere,
the community will be about as we'll rid
of this worse than worthless human
beast as if he were executed. Much has
been and will hereafter be said in con-
demnation of the jury system, and juries
are too often blamed for not enforcing
the law; there are no doubt many occa.
sions when juries are summoned and
impaneled for the purpose of pardoning
3 criminal and then they usually meet
the expectation of those who selected
them; but where one man is pardoned
by the jury a dozen go free by the
supreme courts search for an excuse to
reverse the case, and hundred by the
governors turning them loose. Unless
we are mistaken Oregon criminals. who
once get into the penitentiary, are very
likely to remain there at least for the
next four years. But the supreme court
will go on finding excuses to set aside
verdicts which, in justice, ought to be
sustained. If they would search as dill.
gently to find reasons for sustaining the
judgments in criminal cases as they dc
to reverse them, justice, in cases like the
swartz case, would more often be done

KAR oN TEE coLUMBIA.

From the time of Jonah to the time of
the convening of the Clatsop county
grand jury in June, 1895, fish have given
. heap of trouble to the world. Big
stories, diplomatic correspondence,
weeks of argument by great lawyers be-
fore courts of international arbitration,
threats of war, war and rumors of war,
indictments and finally threats of arrest
against Clatsop county officials, WHO go
across the Columbia to enforce the will
of the Lord. The pious people of Ore
gon, who are willing to submit to the
Lords will upon all questions except the
senatorial and coinage question, are of
Tended because the worshipers of Nc
Graw, the idol of the Washingtonians,
persist in desecrating our Sabbath by
going fishing Oh Sunday. And it comes
to question whether the Lord or the
idol McGraw shall rule the waters of the
mighty Columbia; whether the fish of
the river ehall have day of rest or not
And war is threatened, which we pre-
sumo the chroniclers of the future will
designate as a religious war; and the
sceptic readers will call fish story. AS
We are on the Lords side, we are sure we
are right, and the catching of fish on
Sunday should be stopped at whatever
COST because people who go fishing on
Sunday are always drowned and because
the. stories they tell when they return
are always contrary to truth and encour-
age falsehood in the rising generation.
But aside from moral questions, the
legislature of Washington made serious
mistake when it repealed the law pro-
hibiting salmon fishing on Sunday, and
the people of Washington engaged in
this industry ought to be glad that
another state is willing, at its own ex-
pense, to protect the industry. Instead
of that, they are threatening to arrest
Oregon officers, who attempt to enforce
Oregon law north of the main channel
In this instance the Oregon law is fol

life. Both wagons were demolished by
tumbling to the bottom of the chasm, 60
feet deep; four horses were pulled IN

may, appear later on that Wasco county

QUESTION
IGNORED.
SILVER

Many of the opponents of free silver
will boast of the victory OF the anti-free
silver people at the Cleveland conven-
tion; it was rather victory of common
sense over unwise enthusiasm. We be-
lieve that all of the conservative silver
people Joined the anti-silver men to pre-
vent the convention doing what it had
no business to do, and thus all resolu-
tions which properly belong to the
national convention. for consideration
were side tracked. When the national
republican convention refuses to declare
for anything but reliable medium of
exchange, the 16 to silver men will be
defeated; until then the opponents of
free coinage must .'look little out"
We believe that by the time the
national convention meets the free silver
agitation will have worn itself out, but it
behooves every voter who wishes to
avoid silver standard, to cast his vote
on every occasion For men who believe
as he does, in order that that result
may be brought about.

T. A. Hudson returned today from a
trip through Sherman county. His
travels covered nearly all portions of the
county and he closely watched the pros
poets for grain in the different localities.
While it is true that in some places the
yield will be small, yet over greater
part the prospect for a large crop is
good. In the places where there will be
shortage the trouble comes as much
from poor cultivation as anything else.
Even if we have no more rain most OF
the farmers in that section expect good
average harvest and that with the price
that is expected, means lots of money in
the fall.
