Conclusion.
Does the'gentleman know that
there was neither gold nor silver in
circulation in this country at that
time? l propose, however, to let
the distinguished Senator [Mr. Al.
lison now the leader Of thr Repub-
lican party in the other end Of the
Capitol answer the question, which
answer can be found in theCOngres.

Congress, second session, page l73
MIR. Allison discussed the ques.
tion at considerable length, and stat.
ed that when Great Britain adopt.
ed the single gold standard
Then the gold gradually left this
country until 1882, when according
to the report of the Director of the
Mint made, in that year, there was
estimated ODE 10000, ,000of silver
coin in this country and only about
$500, 600 Of gold coin.
In answering the assertion that
the bonds Of the U United States had
never been paid in silver, he used
these words:
Can ii be possible that the great
debt which was created by the ne.
cessilies Of the war with Great
Britain in 1912, and which was
liquidaled between that time and
1885, was not paid in silver, or up.
on the basis ofsilver valuation, be-
cause in 1S30'3l'32and 33, gold, as
compared with silver in this coun-
cry, was premium ranging from
6 to 10 per cent? Silver was the
money Of account: all transactinns
were based upon silver: all the
Government transactions, as we'll
as individual transactions, were
conducted in that money.

consistency is one Of the cardinal

W Whitaker, Bailiff, the Judge
delivered his charge. He said
though the county had been tree
from any great amount Of crimes
yet, it was necessary this court
should BIZ held, as courts made a
a balance between good and bad
men; some men are so constituted
to do the right thing at any and all
times, while others are found whu
do not obey the laws; courts pro-
tect society, allay trouble, punish
law breakers as an example TO the
young, and promote peace, harmo-
ny and good will among men.
Among the duties Of the grand
jury the first thing dwelt on was
keeping secret all that took place
in the grand jury room: too often
it was the case that some juror
would tell what had happened in
the room, this causing the law to
fail in its operation in furnishing
the guilty; a grand juror who does
not keep these things secret should
be indicted by his fellow jurors for
perjury as an example in consider.
ing all cases there should be fifteen
jurors present taking twelve to in

in which the p reOn accused has

some years he had been afflicted
with what science calls paralysis,
from which he grew weaker day by

GRAND MILLINERY OPENING.
The Most Extensive Stock and Largest
Variety Ever offered IN The Dalles
at Campbell and wilson's.

The grand opening at the Campbell
and Wilson Millinery parlors takes place
this afternoon and tomorrow. The par
lors are equal to any that we have ever
seen in The Dalles, and in passing it is
impossible to overlook the neatly draped
windows as we'll as the many beautiful
pattern hats which are on display.
The prevailing colors in millinery
goods this fall are numerous and excep~
tionally pretty and at the same time diff
ferent from those of other years. The
principal ones are royal cadet, and army
blue, while black and white will also be
the rage in trimmings, and cactus pink
and cerese will also be considered very
stylish. The shepherdess is the most
fashionable hat for this season, while
the short back sailors will be worn again
this fall.
Plumes. tips and mercury wings will
be used to a great extent in trimming.
The Campbell and Wilson parlors have
the most complete line of the above
mentioned goods that has ever been in
The Dalles.
Their parlors are perfectly in accord
with the splendid stock of goods they
carry and they extend a general invita-
ton to the ladies to call and see for
themselves.

The case of John w. Heebner who was

fire which we spoke of in yesterdav's g
issue, raging in the grass and along the
fences. Mr.. Hall at once stripped off
his coat and helped the section hands
put out the fire after which he viewed
the damage and settled the claims satis-

the audience know good singing when
they heard it and appreciated the same.
The duet by Professor Ryan and Err

Kelsey were both good, the latter
amusing every one as well as surprised
them at seeing such little girl handle
mandolin so skillfully. The guitar
quintet was very pretty, while every
member in the Club distinguished them
selves by their splendid work in Watch
Hill and La Golondrina. Professor
Ryan's solo was well received, while the
guitar duet by Messrs Rees and Parkins
was hard to beat.
Throughout, the musicale was a COM

give another like performance, only the
announcement need be made and full
house is assured.
