MANIFEsTLY UNJUST.

The Times -Mountaineer of May
18th invites an investigation of the
financial condition of Dalles City
during the incumbency of Robert
Mays as mayor, hoping that the CON
parison will prove disadvantageous
as between the city mayor and the
county judge. What it can estab-
lish detrimental to the mayor is be-
yond our Imagination. The duties
and jurisdiction of these officers are
entirely dlssimilar. While the mayor
of the city is merely a presiding
officer, the county judge has absolute
control of the policy of the county.
The mayor cannot be blamed nor
praised for what the council does.
His duties are to preside and to de-
eide points of order. He has no
vote, except in case of a tic. 1t is
true he may advise, and good
mayor will never hesitate to express
his views whenever any matter of
moment is being discussed. On the
contrary the power of the county
judge is almost autoc-atic
Robt. Mays had the misfortune to
be mayor during the hardest blow
the city has ever undergone. The
great fire of 1892 swept away the
greater part of the city below the
bluff A million dollar loss resulted.
The fire was SO great the spirit OF
incendiarism was evoked, ard shortly

was full of lawless and vicious char
acters and martial law had to be re-

Previous to the fire the city ex-
penditures were running along about
evenly with the receipts. Every

needed for running expenses. After
the fire there was great emergency

to be replaced, salary of specia'

"Cleveland intends to get himself
nominated again. said New York
business man who went to Washing
ton this week especially TO find out
Mr.. Cleveland's intentions, ''and he
is going to get up war scare, per-
haps an actual war, in order to help
his chances of election, which, strange
to say, he thinks are already good"
The publication of the name of the
nan who used this language would
create big sensation, but it was
only upon q pledge that it would
not be done that the man to whom
he talked repeated it to Washing
ton correspondent There is plenty
of evidence in sight indicating that
the man correctly stated Mr.. Cleve-
lands Intentions. The activity of
the administration agents in fighting
the silver democrats is known to be
personally directed by Mr.. Cleve-
land, and recent movements in con-
nection with Cuban affairs are sig
nificant. Gen. Fltzhugh Lee never
would have been sent to Cuba as
consul general if he had only been
expected to perform the ordinary
duties of that position; duties for
which he is entirely untitled, not
only by lack of business experience,
but because he can neither speak
nor read the Spanish language.
just what his part of the game is TO
be is not yet apparent, but it may be
set down as certain that he has a
part, an important part, TO play. So
too, with the strong squadron of
war ships which the administration
has been gathering in Hampton
Roads for many months. These
vessels are, it is believed, gathered for
a purpose. 1t will be remembered
that the Spanish minister cabled to
his COVE, nment several months age
that Mr.. Cleveland had promised to
keep his hands off the Cuban revo.
luton until June. It looks like thai
promise was going to be kept. After
June the Democratic convention will
be held. Then Mr.. Cleveland will
know whether that war scare will be
worth while.

impressiveness spoke somewhat as fol-

Your Most Gracious Majesty: This
great outpouring of the multitude is an
indication of the pleasure and satisfac-

on the way through your Kingdom en-

which unfolded itself as you viewed it
from the summit of Echo mountain.
From that point, where the science of
man has received illustrations, you
could see the starry sea on whose

valleys, too, spread out before, and

In an eloquent peroration the honor
able speaker then closed and presented
the chief executive of the city, Mayor

Cifx


The queen gracefully acknowledged
the loyal utteranceS of the Hon. r. j.
Del Vale, and also recognized Mayor
RAIDER as he approached to the foot of
the throne.
He expressed himself in behalf of the
citizens in the following poetical vein:
Most Gracious Majesty: Again we
greet thee and bid thee welcome to our
beautiful and happy city. We hail thy
coming with great rejoicing, and the
hearts of these, the conquered, throb
with pride and pleasure in welcoming
thee to the city of thy reign.
I'm honor of thy coming thou seest
the city arrayed in holiday attire, and
everywhere are streaming banners,
graceful festoons and flashing helmets.
Obedient to thy command to be merry
and of good cheer thy willing and hap
py subjects are reveling in song and
laughter. Our hearts are open to thee
and thy return to our feast of flowers
brings joy and gladness to all thy peo-
pie throughout the realm.
THE cares and vexations of official
life are not easy burdens for mortals to
bear, and gladly do l now surrender the
government of our city to thee, our
queen. AS an emblem of thy authority
therefore, and as a token of our esteem,
I now place into thy hands this key to
the city, and may thy reign be one con-
tinuous round of pleasure, of glorious
and pleasant incidents, of mirth, jollity
and good fellowship"

THE CAPTURED TREASURE
Brought Forward and rendered by the Band Of
Looters

The troupe of merry maskers had been
displaying some impatience, for they
wanted to bring their good deeds under
the notice of their sovereign Her majes-
ty, having been graciously pleased to
receive the key to the city's gates from
Mayor RAIDER, that gentleman gave
place to the leader of the clownish fra
ternity, who displayed their satisfaction
by doing a double-shuffie round the
stage, and giving a shrill blast upon
their whistles.
Henry Dockweiler-for it was he, al
belt disguised in costume-intimated to
her majesty that his followers, during
the attack on the city, had captured
many trophies, and articles of value,
which they deigned to hope she would
accept. AS each package was carried
and laid down for the queens inspection
the spokesman made running cOmmen-
tary as follows
