Hammond, the American engineer,
to death for conspiracy against the

Kruger will interpose and change
the sentence from death to a light
imprisonment and heavy fine.

DON'T GET SCARED.

Tie Oregon Populists. says the
Salem Statesman, true to their best
interests, are just now making most
of the noise and claiming everything
in sight.
Don't get scared.
They are not getting ahead. They
are expending all their wind on noise,
with none left for any other purpose.
They are like Abraham Lincoln's
steamboat, that had sach large
whistle. It was so large that when it
footed this process took all the steam,
and the machinery stopped. Instead
of going ahead while 1t was making a
very loud noise, drowning out all
other sounds for miles around, it ac-
tually lost ground and drifted with
the stream.
The men down in Portland in
charge of the Populist campaign are
giving out 'news'' by the yard about
the prospects of Populist victories In
Oregon. They are trying to con-
vince Oregon voters that everything
is going their way. They are also
trying to convince the deluded mem
bers of their party, so they will shell
out the largest possible assessment
from their almost empty pockets,
with which to hire Populist speakers
from abroad.
They propose to draw into requis-
ition Texas, Iowa and several other

The County Business.

The County Commissioners have not yet
fully completed their report for 1895, but we
are able to give some portions of it. The re-
port of S. G. Norton, Sheriff and Jailor,
shows a very large decrease in the number
of prisoners committed during the year, as
compared with former years. The action of
the County Commissioners in providing for
hard labor under special keeper, of all who
We're committed tramps, Migrants, etc,
had sa utary effect. The position taken
by Sheriff Norton and his deputies in arrest
ing none except bona tide cases, is to be
highly commended and the prosecution of
the constabies for ileg lily working the
tramp business tended largely to put a
check on too free expenditure of the coun-
tvs money. The following tables will sho ="
the business of the past year as compared
with 1880, 81 and 92 under Sheriff Wads-
worth, and 1898 and '94 under Sheriff Little

The Situation at Washington.

Now that the Bond bill has passed the
House, along with the Revenue BILL and the
Republicans have faithfully met the require
ments of the Presidents message with suf-
ficient revenue and with authority to issue
short-term bonds and certificates of indebt-
edness, the Administration should be able
to finish its term of Office without meeting
any more obstacles. But, instead of accept
ing this patriotic action of the Republicans,
the Administration is not only opposing the
legislation it asked for, but all the other
members of the Democratic party are doing
the same thing. If the Democrats in the
Senate, or onehalf the members of the Pres
ident's own party there, would join with the
Republicans who favor this legislation, both
bills would be in the hands of the President
in comparatively short time, and the credit
OF the country once more be restored
But, instead of that being the case, all the
Democrats in the Senate and the Admins
tration itself thus making it impossible
for the Republicans to accomplish anything
1t seems to be the desire of the Democratic
party to run the Government on borrowed
money and pile up an enormous debt, which
will impose great annual interest burden
on the people for the next 80 years [Webb's

an offset to this the church has an invested

management of the financial affairs of the
church, deem it advisable to put solicitors
to work among the church and society, and
pledge cards have been printed for this pur-
pose. This is the first time the treasurer's
report has been printed, but it is thought
best to establish it as a precedent. From
the report and remarks the society and
church members must have better idea
of the church finances and be willing to
meet the expenses willingly.

| An agitation has been started in Boston
against the employment of Nonresident
teachers in the public schools, and anonp
these mentioned as in this class is a former
teacher in the Belfast Upper Grammar
School.
Benjamin j, Kinds, sub-master in the Eliot
school, is resident of Massachusetts for
but two years. He received his early edu-
catlon IN Maine. He draws a salary of 50 .
wv from the city treasury, and is resident
of Stoneham.
The Boston Herald takes this sensible
view of the question: 1--WE assume that an
polntments by the school board of new
teachers are determined by the test of eff
Cheney, and that if nonresident applicant
IS given preference it is because the tests
made show greater capacity-that is, the
city gets more for its money in the selec-
tons thus made than it would if the rule
was laid down that no one but a Boston res
ldent could be employed. If this is the case
there is no loss to the city in the method
adopted; while, if the proposed restrictions
were put in force, the city would lose, be-
cause it would be compelled to employ
teachers whose efficiency was less marked
than those who had been excluded

lhe lunlaVen matter may be DISPOSED
OF in few words. The Earl arrived at
New York Dec. 18th, with his legal adj
wiser and Arthur Glennie. and was piven
full hearing Friday before the commit
tee to investigate his charges against the
Defender. The hearing was private. but
enough leaked out to show that the noble
lord made very poor exhibition of him
self. He appears to have had no facts
whatever to sustain his charges. 1t was
the merest suspicion, and probably if he
had not been feeling cut up over his de-
feat and the rather pitiful exhibition he
made OF himself by backing out of the
last race, he would never have mentioned
1t, even privately. Saturday morning he
again appeared and was subjected to some
searching questions, and he sailed that
day on his return to England. When the
matter is presented to the public it will
be seen that Dunraven had not the slight
est ground for his charges, and he will oc-
cupy most unenvable position before
the public the world over.
