Edgar Grimm, graduate of the Agri-
cultural College, and for some time at
the head of the department of agricul-
ture of that institution, according to the
Portland papers, is defendant in SIo,-
900 damage suit. The plaintiff in the
case 10 woman, Mrs. Priscilla Girard.
Her complaint AYERS that on the and of
March last, defendant carnally knew
plaintiff, by reason whereof she gave
birth recently to child, and farther
alleges that her character and reputation
has been greatly injured to her damage
in the sum of $4,000, for which amount
she asks judgment 1t is stated, says
the Welcome, that the defendant had
been invited to contribute sum of money
sufficient to defray the PHYSICIANS bill,
purchase medicines, etc. To these re-
quests, however, Mr.. Grimm is said to
have paid no attention. He declares
himself entirely innocent and that it Is
simply case of blackmail. It is related
that he declares he will not be coerced
into paying money to aswoman. he has
befriended but never wronged, no matter
what the consequences might be. The
woman's story will be given little cred
ence among those who know Mr.. Grimm.
He has always borne an excellent repu-
ftation in Corvallis, where he is well
known, and his friends in this city will
be 1oath to believe the accusations made
against him.

Congress aman Hermann believes the Long
Tom river can be improved. He believes it
will cost but little to put that stream in nav
igable condition, and he knows that such
improvement would be of lasting benefit to
a largo and fertile asricultural section. Last
week he introduced the following bill which
was read twice and referred to the commit
tee on rivers and harbors, Of which he is 9
member:
Be it enacted by the senate and house OF
representatives of the United States Of
America in congress Assem- blcd, That the

ed to cause to be made an examination and
survey Of the Long Tom river from its
mouth to the town of Monroe, in Oregon,
with view to the improvement of tho nav
igation of said river for shipping purposes
and TO report to congress plans and esti-
mates Of cost Of said improvement. And
the necessary expense Of said examination
and survey is hereby authorized to be

in this city in order to finish up some pen

he was unable to get satisfactorily settled
during the rush incident to the last weeks
of congress. The establishment of sew

service from Coulee City to Waterville.
He has already assurances from the de-

The plans for the Spokane military post

with the secretary of war and quarter

LEAVE THE QUESTION OPEN
senator Warren on the Financial
situation.

st. Louis, June Ex-senator warren OF
wyoming, who arrived here tonight from
Washington, believes that the best way 10
settle the dispute over the money plank
is to leave the whole question open. Sen
ator Warren is a free silver man, but was
instrumental in securing a declaration by
the convention in his state against bolt
ing. He thinks 1t would be wise policy.
rather than attempt to frame financial
plank to be acceptable to the extremists
on both sides, which must in the nature
of things be unsatisfactory to both, to
leave the whole question to the public for
solution.
"If ] could have my way said he. i
would make no equivocal declaration. let
the republicans of the country frankly ac-
knowledge that on the differences which
they fully realize on the tariff and other
questions we are united; but west, cast,
north and south we believe in the truesi
discharge of our obligations. No repub-
lican wants anything but the soundesi
money, and no one desires population al
home or abroad. Let us say that upor
| that we are Of one mind. But let us stoI
there and allow the republican party, II
the future, to work out the problem as tt
| the manner and extent of silver coinage
There should be no prescription on on
side or the other. II the members of thu
party honestly differ, let them honestl.
J say so.'
