s1 ;,.
have not paid it back. Let "6ld
Democrat" or "Old Republican,
or "Old Slob," )" who purports to
talk in the Journal-Gazette, get
after the Republican ex-ofiicials
as they are the only ones who have
not paid back. Their money
"would be balm to heal the
many wounds of the tax payer. "
How did the Journal ever get
it in their heads that 1t was "dem-
ocrats, democrat, democrats" all
the time that took illegal fees,
when all the republican officers
that ever held office in Hooking
county up to the time of the in
vsstigation, took illegal fees. In
numbers there were 16 democrats
and ~ republicans that were held
by the investigation, and neither
of either party took cent that
he did not think at the time that
he was entitled to. But Mckay
keeps nagging all the time at dem
ocrats to pay back the money they
took from the county. We can
proudly say that every Democrat
has walked up like a man and
paid back every cent demanded
although he took the money al
unconscious of doing wrong. Now
let the republican eX-officials come
to the front and pay back whar
they took, and here is tip, that
there will be suits entered agains
their bohdsmen in a few. weeks i
they do not pay at once.
And another thing. There wa
a time but few years ago whel
the court house was filled will
Republicans. Every board in j
was republican, and all the officials
but one. At that time there was
in office Republican Prosecuting
Attorney. The whole buncl
grabbed illegal fees along with the
prosecutor himself, and all were
caught in the investigation. We
ask, why did not the republican
prosecutor stop the illegal fee
business, and pray why did he
lawyer as he was and knew better
take illegal fees himself along
with the rest; an official of this
great Sands-McKay reform party
"a joke-Sands and reform.
And further more if the Journal
is awed by illegal fee drawing OF
Democrat and Republican ex-offici-
ais and pleading for the people
to condemn it, they certainly can.
not themselves and would not ask
the people to support DR.. Lyons
for coroner again. The Doctor
took illegal fees and admitted il
and paid back the per cent de-
manded. He is now on the Re
publican ticket asking for re-elect
ion. Will the good, sweet, reform
Mckay support DR.. Lyons. There
is no candidate on the Democratic
ticket that took illegal fees. Oul
sweet reform cotemporary had
better vote the Democratic ticket
to avoid electing to Office salary
grabbers again.
Again we say, let the Republican
ex-officials "who took money from
the county treasury without auth
ority of law, pay it back. This
would work like the balm of Gil
cad upon the distressed tax

DECIDED TO RESIST.
Express Companies Will Not Grant
Demands of Drivers.

Chicago, Aug. S.-The express COM
panies practically have decided to re-
sist the demands of their drivers tor
increased pay and shorter hours says
the Tribune. and have taken steps to
protect their business should the team
sters union call strike.
Coupled with this decision come ru-
mors of "a similar action by the mana
gers of some of the big department
stores whose stable men and drivers are
threatening trouble.
Both decisions were reached at a Sc
cret joint conference in which represent
tatives of some of the stores and most
of the seven big express companies were
present
In the Railway Express Drivers and
Conductors union No. 20, the express
companies will have to deal with a
branch of the National Transfers I'M
ion, which fought the packers and be-
came involved in the freighthandlers'
trouble.
The plan of the express companies.
according to the Tribune, will be to or
der agencies not to accept perishable
goods billed to Chicago and to cancel
from all shipping agreements the clause
which compels delivery. When ship
ments reach this city the companies will
send word to the consiEnee that he
must call for the goods. Perfshable ar

and there was no doubt that he had a
good case, but l felt it my duty to say:
Il am sorry for you, Uncle William,
of course, but this accident appears to
be what they call an act of Providence.
You happened to be in the last seat in
the last car, and another train hap
pened to smash in the end of it. Nc

idence, you know

ever, while holding it to be an act Of
Providence, we are satisfied as to who's
fault it was, but I can tell you one
thing: If Providence don't get a move
on her and get a key of beer and $25
in cash around here before tomorrer
night I'll tell my lawyer to 60 ahead

SO, 600 damages
at is needless to add continued the
attorney, that Providence got up and
busted and had that case settled as
soon as keg Of beer could be got from
the nearest village"

NEW OREGON RAILROAD.
Articles of Incorporation Have Been
Filed


Portland, Ore, Aug. S.-A special to
the Oregonian from The Dalles, says:
Articles Of incorporation were filed
today of a company to construct rail-
road between The Dalles and Biggs, the
terminus of the Columbia Southern
road. The interpretations are Walter
H. Moore of Moro. and E. NJ. Williams
and Joseph T. Peters of this city. The
capital stock is $500. OOO."
The Oregonian commenting on the
above dispatch says:
AN independent railroad on the line
indicated in The Dalles' dispatch will
serve two purposes. 1t will admit the
traffic of the Columbia Southern rail-
road to free water in2he Columbia river
at The Dalles: and it will serve as a
portage railroad past the unnavigable
stretch of the Columbia below Cello
Fails 1t will be able to do just what
the Paul F. Mohr Portage was designed
to do.
The proposed line would run along the
o. r. & N. track for a distance of about
three miles easterly from The Dulles.
Then it would break back into the in
terror and traverse a pass between Fiji
teen Mile creek and the Deschmutes
river, coming out to the 0. r. & N.
again few miles from Biggs. At Biggs
it IS presumed connection will be made
with the Columbia Southern.

and control system of wireless teleg-
raphy which it is now operating in the

to the plaintiff. sin that divers persons

sufficient amount of capital to enable
