Word reached here at noon that the
body of dead man had been found in
Dry Hollow four miles south of The
Dalles. The body was found lying by
the side of the road with bullet hole
in the head and revolver in the right
hand. From appearances the man had
been dead several days. Coroner Butts
was notified and went out this after
noon to bring the dead body to town.
The body was brought in at $3.50 this
afternoon, and from all indications the
dead man had committed suicide. At
the time of going to press the body had
not been searched so as to determine
the identity of the deceased.
Here is another one of Ira Camp
bells Mexican stories: All the street
cars in the republic of Mexico are pro-
PEELED by mule power. Americans
were successful in obtaining a fran
chise for an electric street line at
Monterey, and placed an excellent
plant in operation and it was expected
that every city in the republic would
have street cars of like kind. But 10
and behold, you never can tell what
will happen in this country. The first
day the cars were operated, greaser |
was killed by one of the cars by his |
own deliberate negligence, and the |
franchise was cancelled without |
further notice, much to the disgust and
loss of the investors, and therefore in
D moment the electric car was doomed
in this country for the present at least,
but civilization will soon compel the
use of the cars despite the greasers.

He Didn't Have EN-.

That arch erected at the north
terminus of Court street to commemo-
rate the opening of the locks, and
which has been allowed to remain
standing since, is an object to be
generally admired, but it has its faults.
When Senter Payton was here, he
stopped in front of the arch to talk
with friend and leaned against the
structure, supposing it was stone, aud
came near being crippled for life by
the fall he got when the canvas of
which it is made gave way. And few
days ago the thing came near causing
a gentleman who was at Salem during
As days of the recent farce, to return
to that city and enter the Kelley IL
stitute for inebriates. The aforesaid
gentleman was passing down Court
street early one morning when the
wind was blowing, and CHANGED to
notice the arch swaying to and fro.
He stopped, pinched himself to make
sure he had not got into somebody
else's clothes, then convincing himself
that it was inc, wondered how gentle
zephyr could cause huge stone arch
like that to move. But it was moving,
no mistake. Then he wondered if
that stuff Jonathan Bourne dished out
at Salem really had such effect, and
ahe must have 'em." Has
tening to hi 3 room in the hotel and
making a eareful search for snakes,
he was convinced that his mind was
sound, and went forth again to look at
the arch, and discovering that it was
made of cloth he kicked himself few
lines for being SO superstitious.

Secretary of State Kincaid has ad-

at rest all question as to how he will
deal with the claims of the commits

what form of claim he should file for

out the same scheme for the better

much advantage. The country is so

Fusion or cooperation between
parties which agree on the issues
OF the day IS in the eyes Of the ordi
nary republican editor an unholy
affair IN which no self-respecting
man can participate. Yet the Nc
Kinley republicans in Colorado are
fusing with the silver men on state
and local tickets. All of which goes
to show that it Is a fact that the re-
publican party Is an organized appe-
lite for Office.
Smith county popullst commission
ers are paying of bonds which will
not be due for six years. The bonds
were issued by the republicans In
1883 to pay running expenses Of the

Senator Matthews OF Mcpherson
recently announced that he would be
a candidate for the republican nomi-
nation for congress in the seventh
district. He said that he would con-
duct his canvass on the same conser-
vative lines that he did his banking
business. His bank failed last week
and it's Liabilities are about double
the amount Of the assets. The popu.
lists Of the big seventh should be viii
ling to let him introduce his conser-
Vative methods into the republican
politics Of that district.

managed to dodge every one Of the
army of newspaper reporters. He

The Union Pacific has voluntarily
put the old car load stock rate in

have discovered that their patrons
have some rights which they are

While Gov. Leedy was away, Pri-
vate Secretary Little refused TO grant
a requisition from the Governor of
Colorado for Kansas mal who,
while passing through that state with
his aged parents, refused to give up
the road for another who had no load
at all. This incident led to few
words between the parties which was
the cause OF the attempt to prosecute
the Kansas man. On his return Gov
