KILLING OF POsTMAsTERs.
The Cabinet Discusses the Outrages
nf Lake city and Ada.

WASHINGTON. March IA matter
which engaged the attention Of the cabinet
today was the murder recently Of the col
ored postmaster and his infant child at
Lake City, s. C.. by mob OF a hundred
or more white men.
The two outrages on Republican post
masters IN the South discussed occurred
at Lake City. s. C.. and Ada. Ga. Free
man. the postmaster al the latter place
was assasslnated before he entered upon
the discharge Of his duties as postmaster
The president, It is said. is very much dis
turbed by these acts. though he views with
satisfaction the fact that the whole South
ern press has expressed lts Indignation.
The first impulse Of the officials In cases
like those cited. il Is said. Is 70 abolish the
Office where the outrage occurs. although
it Is realized that such q step would de-
prive Of their postal facilities large num-
bers Of citizens who have nothing 70 do
with the killing. The president therefore
finds il Difficult, % lay down any rigid rule
that could be applied in any case Tho
Office at AXE city has been abolished. but
so far nothing has been done regarding the
case a. Ada.

SOME WAR STATISTICS.

Large Number OF Veterans Of the Civil
War i'm Congress.
At this time anything of a mill
tary nature-statistics or other
wise-is of interest to the people,
and this fact led a Washington
newspaper correspondent to give
the following in regard to the
membership of congress.
"Out of total of ninety men in
the United States Senate, more
than one third-or thirty-two-
are veterans of the civil war, which
ended a full generation ago; while
two of these thirty-two, who are
today actively engaged in solving
a new war problem, were partici-
pants in the struggle with Mexico
more than half a century ago. The
house, too, despite the lapse of
time and the advancement of
young men in political life, has a
large percentage of men who were
active in the rebellion. This is a
record of American vigor of which
the country may we'll be proud"

A good joke is out on j. o.
Garter. When that gentleman
was in San Francisco the early
part of last month on his way to
Hawaii from Washington, he en-
countered M. Hurd, wellknown in
Honolulu.
"Well, I've driven the last nail
in the annexation coffin" spoke
up Mr.. Carter.
"Ah, you may have driven the
last nail in the coffin, but the
corpse was not there" quickly re-
piled Mr.. Hurd.

MORE SPANISH TREACHERY.
Spanish Ship Sunk With All ON Board

London, May 9.-The Hong

al details of the battle of Manila
"There was an act of treachery
on the part of the Spanish ship
which lowered her flag and then
fred at boats crew sent to take
possession of her. She did not
hit the boat, but our guns were
turned on her and tore her to
pieces. She went to the bottom

There is nothing definite to show

any comments on the report of the

In reference to an appropriation
for the erection of tombstones to
the memory of the men who were

to say, however, that the action

The supporters of Prof, Lymen will
not be astonished to see that
Prof, Ackerman has at last been
forced out of hiding, and is COM
PEELED to discuss in public the merits
Of his candidacy, No one need be
surprised that he is making as good a
defence as possible and that he is con-
cealing unfaYorable facts as far as
possible.
Neither need any one be surprised
that the Oregonian, the old enemy of
the American Book Company, is now
supporting that Company's candidate.
This journal invariably betrays the
people at the hour of crisis. 1t is in-
vinclble in peace, but invisible In war.
Having accepted universal bossism it
cannot now resist.the dictation ofCap-
tain Edwards.
Now is the time to bring into ir-
resistible light all the facts upon this
book question. Let us strike and
strike home for our free schools, A
long suffering public will not be de-
ceiVed by the cry Of untruthfullness
or unfairness from such source as the

on its knees begging for mercy. Let
it have no mercy except such as it has
been dealing out TO our people and
their children for these many years.

ARRESTED AT SALEM.
Two Men Suspected of Being Impli-
Gated in Tacoma Murder.

Two Men Suspected of Being Impli-
Gated in a Tacoma Murder.
Oficers d. W. Gibson and George
Townsend Sunday evening arrested
two suspicious looking characters at
the state fair grounds, on the suspic-
ion of haYinR been implicated in a
recent Tacoma murder. The men
will be held on suspicion until the
Tacoma authorities are heard from.
At police headquarters the men
gave their names as f. w. Nye and
Geo S. Patton. The men are aged
about % or 30 years each.
On Thursday night, the 18th inst.
an italian saloon keeper of Tacoma
was murdered Three men are sup
posed TO have committed the crime,
one Of whom was captured shortly
after the crime. The only description
given by the Tacoma police OF the
other two men is that one is tall and
the other short. The smaller of the
two is quite lame by reason of gun
shot wound received In the left knee
several years ago.
Since the Adventist camp meeting
opened at the fair grounds, two men,
strangers and apparently homeless,
have been loaflng about the tents,
depending on food or money from
charitably inclined campers for a liY-
ing. Among the delegates in at
tendance is minister from Tacoma
who became suspicious Of the men
and their actions and finally con-
cluded that they might be implicated
10 the murder of the saloou-keeper 10
his home city. Accordingly Sunday
evning he notified Chief Of Police Dill
ley who dispatched Officer Gibson
and Townsend to the fair grounds
when the arrest of the men was eff
fected.
The men tally In some details to the
brief description furnished them from
Tacoma. One of the men is taller
than his companion who is lame as
he himself admitted this morning
was caused by gun-shot wound re-
ceived fifteen years ago. 1t is barely
possible the men under arrest are the
ones wanted in Tacoma and they Will
be held until the police officials of that
city are heard from, to whom a COM
plete description Of the two men was
mailed this afternoon.
