An Imperial Verdict.
counties

Justice Davis decided a case yester-
day which will not appear on the docket.
A camp of Indians gave three white
visitors $3.50 to buy some whiskey for
them, and the Indians were told to stay
in camp till they returned with it.
About 10 o'clock the Indians became
anxious, and coming to town noticed the
white men around the streets celebrat-
ing with the $1.50. They were expostu-
lated with by the Indians, and were told
to return to camp, they would come up
in little while with the whisky. They
did not appear by midnight, and the
Indians went to the white mems camp
and took what they thought was about a
dollar aud haIf's worth, the booty, com
sisting of two blankets, a coat and a
shirt. Returning to camp a squaw said
the Two blankets were stolen from her
on circus day. The white men then
hunted the Indians up and all agreed to
go before Davis as an arbitrator. After
two hours of investigation, Dayis re-
stored the coat and shirt to the white
men, and held the blankets until Satur-
day, when if the white men will pay the
$3.50 back to the indians they may re-
gain them. If they do not, the blankets
go to the Indians.

TEN FEET MORE OF WATER.
That Is the News Sent Ont by Observer
II PagUe Today.

v PORTLAND, Or, June 19.-Your river
will rise about ten feet more. A con-
tinued rise is probable until the maxi
mum height is reached. Cooler weather
for the next three days.
This is the text of telegram received
this morning by Mr.. S. L. Brooks from
Observer Pague, and was confirmed by a
telephone message. This would bring
the river to a height of fifty feet. lacking
only nine and six-tenths feet of being up
to the 1894 rise. In telephoning to Mr..
Pague, the latter SAID that ten feet he
considered the maximum figure to
be attained, and that six feet more than
the present stage was positive. This
cause considerable trouble and expense.
The largest loss might be the destruction
or partial destruction of the locks. The
railroad company would also suffer a
great loss. Some of the fish wheels
would be liable to go with rise to fifty
feet. The D. P. & A. N. warehouse
would be compelled to put In false
floor to raise the wool, with which the
warehouse is almost filed. It is now
about seven feet above the surface of the
water. There ia such a vast floor space
of this warehouse that the expense
would not fall short of $1,000. Many of
our merchants, with rise of ten feet,
would have to look to their Easements,
and some expense would be entailed in
moving goods. The memory of 1894 is
yet strong enough to remind us of what
are the evils of an unusually high water!

GENERAL HORAcF pORTrR.

York in the event Of McKinley's nomina.
tion. Ohio and New York were linked
when Hayes and Wheeler and Garfield
and Arthur were the candidates.
The choice of the Mckinley managers
has fallen upon General Horace Porter as
the man who, they think is best quail
fled to make New York safely Republican.
Though General Porter has never held Of
flee and has hitherto declined to become a
candidate, he will not refuse the second
place on the ticket with Mckinley
General Porter and Major Mckinley are
warm personal friends. and It is well
known that each has sincere admiration
for the other. Two years ago they made
addresses from the same platform at the
gathering in honor of Lincoln, and last
year they spoke together ON Lincoln's
birthday in Albany. The cordial relation
ship which exists between them makes the
selection Of General Porter natural.
Mckinley Wants Porter.
It Is said that the Mckinley leaders de-
cided upon General Porter after confer
ences during which the availability OF
several prominent New York Republicans
was discussed. They chose him because
while he has been a Mckinley man from
the start no has not boon identified with
any luttAon ol tuo IuAtli anu httauht ut ~
an ardent prOteotioniGt and qualified to
take tho stump in the campaign.
His connection with tho Union League
club, of which he has been four times
president, was not overlooked, nor was his
military record and his popularity with
the Grand Army and other military organ
izations forgotten 1t was also urged in
his favor that his personal character and
record are not omen to attack.
General Portor's eligibility Is further
increased, In the opinion of his friends
and the friends of Major Mckinley, by the
fnot that from 1869 to S73 he was Gener-
al Grants confidential aid, and his ex-
perlence I'm tho White House at that time
gave him an intimate knowledge Of lead
ers, measures and forms Of procedure. In
additioIF they take into account his con-
sistent advocacy Of sound money and his
standing among the business men of his
own city. He is a man of ample fortune
which he has increased in business.
When General Porter as president gen.
oral OF the Sons Of the American Revolu-
tion. made the address in Detroit on Feb
22 Of this year. Mark Hanna and many
OF Major MoKinley's friends were present
and had already made their plans for Nc

Whether the settlement Of the vice pres

ments which may result in desertions
