THE OTHER SIDE.

The SENTINEL last week published
an article from the Carson Appeal re-
garding the mission of Attorney Cen
eral Woodburn to Lincoln county, in
which it was stated by that paper
that the State Board came to the con-
clusion that it was necessary to have
an attorney on the ground to look after
the States interests regarding the
back taxes owed to Lincoln county by
the Oregon Short Line Company, and
in which the State was an interested
party. 1t was also stated by the APP
peal that District Attorney McNamee
of Lincoln county had accepted a fee
of $500 from the Short Line people to
prevent the sale of the road to the
Clark people. The last issue of the
DeLamar Lode brands the statement
as wilful lie that District Attorney
McNamee accepted fee of $500 from
the Short Line Company, although
it says he has been retained as attor-
ney for that company. Regarding the
Appeals statement abou. ne bullion
tax suits OF the DeLamar Company
being compromised. the Lode says,
is equally false. The delinquent list
as turned over to the District Attorney
by the County Auditor against the
DeLamar Company has been collected
by suits brought in the District Court,
and every cent of tax, penalty and
costs was turned into the County
Treasury during the month Of June.

MEANS WHAT mE SAYS.

President Hays of the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company is evident
Iva man who means what he says.
II will be remembered when he made
his initial trip to the Coast, shortly
after his selection as President OF the
company, he delivered an address in
San Francisco in which he said he
did not believe in the railroad being
mixed up in politics; that he was Of
the opinion that the company could
dispense with the services of its po-
liticsl agents in the various States
and Territories in which the company
was doing business. j. b. Wright
OF Sacramento, one of the oldest and
best known railroad men in Cali
iornia, is no longer connected with
the thern Pacific Railroad Com
pany. II is stated that President
HAYS concluded that Mr.. Wright was
devoting more time to his private in
terests than he was to the business
of the railroad. For nineteen years
past he has had full control of the
Sacramento division of the road, with
headquarters at Sacramento. and he
has been potent power in politics.
nroL ~ bia kima WAS given tn poliki-
cal work in the interest of the COM
pany, and he was regarded as one of
the Sacramento "bosses." President
Hays, it is said, gave Wright to un-
derstand that he must quit playing
politics while in the employ of the
company. but it seems be did not
take the hint. This displeased Pres.
ident Hays. and Mr.. Wright's resig-
nation was asked for and accepted.

Against secret Societies,

At Des Moines. Iowa, on May "a,
the United Presbyterian General As
sembly discussed a very important
topic-a revision OF the creed-which
provided that no member of any Sc
cret society shall be member OF their
church. The question was hotly dis
cussed for two hours, but final decis-
ion was postponed till later in the
session. The Presbyterisns specially
attacked the Masonic and Odd Eel
lows order. one delegate going so far
as to say that he believed no member
of secret society could ever enter
heaven. Another delegate thought
secret societies were wrong because
they compelled man to keep secrets
from his wife, which was contrary to
the Bible teachings.

dress to his class Professor Clark
declared that the college-bred

with the blowing advice to the
male students: "You young men
who are looking for wives among
the college bred women of to-day
are on the wrong track. II you ever

issue it was announced that Marie and

twenty-five were varioloid. Outside

lineup was as follows:

The Ssgebrushers had the advantage
OF the best battery and held the Chic

on both sides was slack, and as whole
the game lacked in snap and vim. But
that wind was hard thing to face for
nine innings and undoubtedly accounts
for the poor showing. The score was

Just at this time publict attention is
called to the assassination of Presi-
dents of the United States. The first
attempt was on the life of Gen. An
drew Jackson. in the city of Washing
ton, January Both, 1885, by man nam
ed Lawrence, who tired on the General
twice, but failed to do any damage.
Abraham Lincoln was shot while a.
tending Fords theatre. in Washington
City, by John Wilks Booth, April 14th
1865, died the next day.
James A. Garfield was killed by Chas
Julius Guiteau. July End 1881.
William Mckinley WIS shot at the
Buffalo Exposition on Thursday, Sept
9Th 1901 by Czolgosz, Pole.
This is q history in short of the muir
der or attempted murder of four of
the Presidents of the United States,
and law should be provided, giving
gre lter security, If possible, to the per
son of the Chief Executive of the ma
ton, and more speedy trial and exc
cution of the desperate men who at
tempt the life of the President. Such
men should not be allowed to live in
this free land Of equal rights and civil
liberty where all men are equal before
the law. Here no place should be found
for the assassin. for man who would
strike blow at the nations chief, such
blow is not against one man only,
but against seventy million of Ameri.
can people, and the punishment should
be swift, certain end sure.

voice of the people put William
Mckinley at the helm, his re-
probabilities were great, but he
was equal to them, his wisdom
and prudence never failed him.
His hold upon the public heart
today is to be accounted for by
the fact that he was the embodi-
ment Of the best traits of national
character. VIM. McKinley's con-
duct of public affairs won him the
respect not only of his own c5un-
trymen, but of the whole world.
In his patience with his maligners
he exemplfied the Christian char
acter.

BILE manner, aud in the close led
the entire audience in singing
America. No part of the exercises
stirred the entire audience with
more enthusiasm than the playing
of "Nearer My God To Thee," by
the band, which rendered several
other appropriate selections.
Rev. Mr.. Campbell dismissed
the audience with the benediction

subdued manner, feeling that if
We are inspired to nobler deeds
