TO SUBSCRIBERS. During the past two years of null times the Times- - Mountaineer ha3 been. sent reg ularly to a great many who no doubt appreciate the paper, but who have not been called upon 'for ji settlement of their sub scription. During those years we have endeavored to keep the paper going without calling up- on delinquents, knowing that " money was difficult to get; but now that times have improved we feel that our . patrons should toot only settle all arrearages, but pay their subscription one year in advance. We have trust ed mauy of you one and two years, and feel that a return of the compliment is due. iou are therefore urgently requested to pay up back subscriptions and one vear in advance, which will entitle you to the Times-Mou- n taineer and the Webf oot Planter one year as a premium. SATURDAY. 30 1897 ITEMS 4N BRIEF. From Wednesday's Dally. - Mrs. Gordon has been appointed post- - mlatreiR9 at Wainic to succeed Mrs, Woodcock; resigned. OCTOBER , Yesterday club wheat was quoted at 79 and 80 cents in Portland. The price here remained at 75 cents. A farmer in Union county has just " harvested an experimental crop of su .. gar beets, which by careful measure- ment and weight yielded at the rate of 2:8 tons to the acre. Today four car loads of young horses passed down the road en route from Pasco to thecannery at Linnton, where they will be converted into horse beef and put on the market. . - S. B. Driver, of Wamic. is in the city today. He says farmers in the Wamic country are preparing to put in a large acreage of grain whenever sufficient rains shall fall. Half a dozen ships arrived at Port land yesterday all after wheat, which will relieve the warehouses in that city, and may have the tendency to advance the price of wheat a cent or two. daughter of the late Hon. P. Paquet, and niece of Mrs. W. E. Garretson, of The Dalles, died at her home in Ore- gon City, yesterday at3 P. M., aged 22 years. Miss Paquet bad been an inva- lid for a number of years, being a vic- tim of consumption. Peter Nichols, of Oakland, CaL, Is visiting old friends and acquaintances in the cily. Mr. Nicholas was for many years a resident of The Dalles, but has been away from here five years. At tbe residence of Justice Filloon .In this city last Bight Mr. Chas. F. ' Due-la- s and Miss Minnie C. Markham were united in marriage. Both are residents of Dufur, and are highly re spected young people. Oreon hoD raisers have not struck such a Klondike as they thought they would a month aero. Hops are a dull sale at 13 to 14 cents a pound, but this ' is a fairly good price, and will put most of the hop raisers on easy street, A Kentucky editor has called on the sheriff for troops to assist him in get ting out his paper. There are some editors in Pendleton who will likely be compelled to do some thing, judging from the matter that appears in their papers. Pendleton is experiencing a sort of moral wave that has bean set in mo tion by the grand jury now in session at that place. A job lot of indictments has been returned against gamblers and prostitutes which is making life uncomfortable for that class of people, Hon. B. F. Nichols, county treasurer of Crook county, spent the day in the c'tv visiting old friends. Mr. Nichols has been in Walla Walla visiting his daughter, Mrs. G. A. Winckler, and is returning to his home at Prineville, Mr. Nichols is one of tbe early pioneers of Oregon, having come here 53 years ago, and is a perfect encyclo- pedia of Oregon history. The semi-annu- report of the county cler, sheriff and treasurer of Wasco county show that on Sept. 30, the total indebtedness of the county was $107, 504.61; total resources, $25,970.40; net liabilities, $81,577.21. The total amount of warrants drawn for the six months ending Sept. 30, was $18,427.07, which shows tbe expenses of the county to be about 3o,uuu a year. As the farmers throughout the coun try sell their wheat they satisfy the mortgages held on their farms by foreign loan associations, and relieve themselves from dobts that hare been hanging over them for years. Now if they will just firmly resolve to never again mortgage the farm, they will see easier times in the future. To get out of debt and stay out is the best known antidote for hard times. The trial of Ben Ward, of Clatsop county, who is under indict ment for having, appropriated some $14,000 of county funds, was begun at Astoria yesterday, and will probably continue until the end oi tbe week Ward and Mb deputy have raised sulfr cient funds to reimburse tbe county, which will probably save him from a term in the penitentiary. The beer produced by the Columbia brewery of this city has ever enjoyed a reputation as being A 1, and that it has not lost its standing is evidenced by the fact that the brewery is being run on full time, turning out thou sands of gallons of beer daily. The Columbia brewery, like the Diamond mills, has a reputation for turning out it first class article, and both these manufacturing industries are known abroad as well as at home, just as any other manufacturing concern would be if established in Tbe Dalles. More trouble has been piled up on J. P. McManus, editor of the Pendle- ton Republican. Besides being in- dicted for criminal libel, the Umatilla county grand jury has returned an in- dictment charging him with gambling playing the great American game of draw poker. He may be guilty of the first charge but it is ridiculous to charge him with having played poker. It takes money to indulge in that lux- ury, and money is something Oregon editors seldom if ever have. McManus will certainly come clear on that charge. Hon. E. B. Dufur has returned from Prineville where he had been attend-- , Ing court. When ho left Prineville ! feed, be decided to open them. After all the business of the court had been concluded except the trial of Bush, who had been indicted for murder in the second degree. Last July Bush killed young Cadle at a dance in the southern part of the county. His case was to havo been called up last Mon- day morning. He bad employed Judgo Bennett, of The Dalles, and Judge Brink, of Prineville, to defend him, and the state was represented by Dis- trict Attorney Jayne and ' Geo. W. Barnes. Slowly but surely United States Senator John L. Wilson is putting tbe republican office seekers out of their suspense. The latest to secure federal oSBce are Wilson R. Gay, of Seattle, for the office of United States atorney, and Chas. E. Claypool, of Tacoma, as assistant United States at torney, senator Wilson has every- thing his own way when it comes to dispensing federal patronage in Wash- ington, which accounts for the alacrity with bich ho has been able to dispose of tbe job, and ho didn't hold any bar- gain counter meetings either. From Thursday's Daily. Mrs. Sophia Lauer, of Portland, is visiting her sons, Charles and Jerome, in this city. Thus far this season the Salem flour- ing mills have bought 144,000 bushels of wheat at prices racging from 69 to 82 cents. Recently Z. M. Brown and Pelton Bros, bought 1,500 head of cattle in Willamette valley that they will drive to Crook county this fall. Gov. W. J. McConoell, of Idaho, is in the city today. The governors visit has no political significance, as he is here only on a friendly visit.. A gang of thirty hobop who had been run out of Spokane made a raid on Cheney Monday night, and were promptly run into the city jail by the marshal. Farmers are becoming convinced that 75 cents a bushel is about all they are going to realize for wheat this sea son, and a good many are selling at that price. Capt. A. S. Blowers and his son, L. N. Blowers, mayor of Hood River, have gone to Sumpter, Baker county, with the view of opening a store at that place. The Rustler thinks Lake county! Is entitled to the belt as the most prolific barley producer in tbe state. Mrs. Foster '8 crop on Summer lake averaged 107 bushels per acre. ' There is an epidemic of scarlet fever in Palouse City, Wash. On account of the prevalence of the disease schools have been closed and no children are allowed on the streets. Six employes of the Western Union Telegraph Co. are here rebuilding tbe telegraph line across Mill creek, so as to get it out of tbe way of the railroad bridge soon to be built. New York capitalists are about to put in a new electric light plant in Eugene. This will give that city two good electric plants, and will cause a reduction in price of light. Wm. Kelsay, of Antelope, who recently had several ribs broken by falling down a. bank on Eight-Mil- e, has about recovered from his injuries, and expects to return home next week. Dr. Sutherland returned last evening from Astoria, and is somewhat im- proved in health. The doctor is hope- ful that his health will so improve as to enable him to remain in The Dalles. It is expected the new steamship line between Astoria and San Fran- cisco will be in operation within the next three or four weeks. Cheap freight and passenger ratas will then be the order. There's a new coon in town, and he has taken up his lodgings in the show window of the Snipes-Kinnersl- y drug store. He is a diminutive coon, but as an advertiser attracts more attention than any other colored gentleman in town. Klickitat club wheat commands H cents a bushel more than Wasco county wheat here, and Klickitat bluestem is from 3 to Zi cents above club, making it worth from 78 to 79 cents a bushel, and some has been sold the past few days at 80 cents. Eugene has been overrun with ho boes, and five of them were placed un der arrest last Sunday. One is a mere boy, 14 years old, whose home is in Salem. He has served one term in the reform school, and will probably be sent back there, Last week French & Co.'s bank paid out $170,000 on checks drawn by wheat buyers, for wheat purchased in Wasco, onerman ana micmtat coun ties. This snug little sum went into circulation among the farmers and goes a long ways toward creating pros perity. The Tacoma News quotes from an Eastern paper the following notice: Married: At Flintstone, hy the Rev. Windstone, Mr. Nehemiah Whitestone and Miss Wilhelminah Sandstone both of Limestone" and remarks "There will be other pebbles on the beach." The Agricultural College authorities at Corvallis have issued a circular Btating that there will be a short farm ers' course held at the college this winter, commencing Jan. 11 and end ing Feb. 10. Lectures will be delivered on chemistry, agriculrure, horticulture and etomology. A man from Klondike became in dignant because a Seattle man wouldn' buy his mine, paying $400,000 for it without examining the property or learning anything about it. These Klondike fellows seems to think that all that is necessary is to say Klondike and the suckers will bite. - The committee of the Commercial club to buy carpets and furniture for the club rooms Messrs. Blakely, Pease and Wilson returned last even ing from Portland, where they bought the chairs and couche9 for the club, amounting to about $350 worth. The carpets for tho rooms will be bought in San Francisco and will cost about $400, wholesale prices. A bereaved husband in Montana has posted this notice on a pine tree: "My wife Sarah has left my ranche When i didnt Doo a thing to hur an i want it distinckly Understood that any Man as takes her in and Keers for hur on mi akcount Will git himself pumped so Full of Led that sum Tenderfoot will locate him for a mineral Clame. A Word to the wise is Suffishent and orter work on fools. P. Smith." In 1894, eays tbe Walla Walla States man, John (Jorum cut bis grain with a arvester, carefully bound it and placed it in three large stacks, but the heavy rains came on and the' stacks sanit so low and were so green with the growing grain that their owner ave them up for lost. A few days a o thinking that ho might find some hav throwing of! the tops of each stack, to his great surprise and delight, he found the grain was in excellent condition for milling purposes, it not only bene. fits bias, but gave a practical illustra tion of the advantage of binding grain "I havo never had a day's sickness in idv life." said a middle-age- d man the other day. "What a comfort it would be," sighs some poor invalid, "to be in bis place for a year or two." Yet half of the in valids we see might be just as healthy as be, if they would only take proper care of themselves, eat proper food and digest it It's so strange that such simple thines aro overlooked by those who want health. Food makes health. It maK63 strength and strength wards off sickness- - The man who had never been sick was strong because be always digested his food, and you could become the fame by helping your stomach to work as well as his. Sha- ker Digestive Cordial will help your fatomauii and will make you strong and healthy by making the fook you eat make you fat. At druggists. Trial bottle 10 cents, From naay'8 Dauy J. P. Abbott, tbe sheep king of Wapinitia, is in the city. James Macken, a prominent stock raiser of Bakeoven, is in the city. Remember the entertainment to be giyen by the Epworth League at the Baldwin opera house Friday evening, The ladies of the Lutheran church will give a splendid bazaar at the armory nex. Wednesday and Thurs day to which they cordially invite everyone. " The rock bluff on tbe west side of Mill creek is giving away to the effects of muscle and powder, and ere lon will be ready for the new railroad bridge that is to be built. The lecture of Miss Kelleher as tbe Congregational church tomorrow evening-wil- l he illustrated by 200 yiews of California thrown upon the screen by one of the best stereopticons on the coast. Between $1,000 and $1,200 worth of Morrow county salary warrants are for sale at the office of the county clerk in this city. They are all of largo denomination and will make a desir- able investment. The Lutheran ladies are putting forth a noble effort to raise money for the furnishing of their new church, and they certainly deserve the most liberal patronage at their bazaar to be given at the armory next Wednesday and Thursday. Miss Margaret Keller, a sister of George Keller of the Oregon Market. left today for her old home in Ger- many, where she and her brother have fallen heir to a handsome fortune. Wheat showed rather an upward tendency in Portland yesterday, tbe market being firmer than for several days past, though there war no materi- al advance. The quotations there were 81 for club and 83J for bluestem. Hero the price remained at 75 cents. Guy Flenner, city editor of tho Boise Statemrn, was iu the city to day returning home from Portland Mr. Flennr is a son of Rey. Mr. Flenner, who was pastor of The Dalles M. E. church 15 years ago, and spent three years in the city, hence meets many old acquaintances here. Work on bam Wilkinson s new warehouse is progressing rapidly. The stone piers are laid, and carpenters have begun laying the foundation Several car loads of lumber for the structure have been received, and it will be pushed ahead as rapidly possible until it is completed. The prospects are favorable that there will be a verdict of acquittal in the case of the state vs. Ben Ward, of Clatsop county now be ing tried at Astoria. The defense is that Ward bad no guilty knowledge of the pelfering of county funds, although the shortage amounted to some $14,000, A train or 17 cars of stock was shipped out from here today. There were 15 cars of sheep shipped- - by Otto Kohler to Chicago and two cars of horses shipped by A. F. Shane to St, Louis, Mo. The sheep will be stopped at Columbus, Neb., to feed. The train goes over the O. R. & N. and U. P. roads. Yesterday the ed state board of railroad commissioners arrived at Baker City making an inspection of the O. R. & N. line. They were car- ried over the line in the private car of Superintendent O'Brien, and of course made a "careful" inspection of the road. This commission is one of the biggest farces that has ever been forced upon the taxpayers of Oregon, When the club rooms are completed The Dalles Commercial and Athletic Club will have as commodious (Quarters as any like institution in the state. The rooms on the second floor are be- ing repapered and refitted so that they present a most attractive appearance, and the alleys are being laid on the first floor, and will be ready for use in a short time. The Lutheran bazaar next week will be an attraction of beauty, and the ar- ticles for sale will be of great variety and also of fine quality. Tbe ladies propose to sell the articles at the real market value, henc6 those who patron- ize them will not only help a good good cause by aiding in furnishing the new church, but will also get full value for the money they invest. Is Uolog Ahead. The Dalles will show a fair advance ment for the year 1897 in the way of buildings erected. Since May 1st of this year 26 residences have been erected, and all of them will be com- pleted before the end of the year. Three business houses have gone up Wolf's store building, the addition to Peters & Go's, store and the new hotel building erected by Rowe & Co. Two fine churches are under course of con structionthe Catholic and Lutheran work has been commenced on the foundation of a school house that will cost close to $15,000 and Wilkinson's warehouse will probably be completed before the end of the year. Besides these new buildings, thousands of dollars have been expended in repair ing and building additions to different residence property. This will make a very good showing of improvements in tbe city for the year 1897, and is con clusive evidence that The Dalles is go-in- g ahead. For Sale or Bent. A fine fruit farm of 90 acres, plentv of wood and running water, situated within fire miles of The Dalles, will be rented or sold on easy terms. This is one of the most desirable bargains in the county. For particulars inquire at this office or at tbe borne of J, A. Fleck. i "cussko roots." Thi rc Are Still Some of Them In the Worm Seeden. The yersitile writer Seeden in the Lancaster (Wis.) Teller, presents some nun cent remarks about; fools that furnishes rather racy reading, Seeden gives vent to his ideas as fol lows: . Thinks 'The right to be a cussed fool T ifo frr.m all devices human." What right Lowell had to state such nn axiom is a little enigmatical. He wrote English as it is spoken in New FWUnd and took a Yankee view of t.'mntra. nnil nrnbablv saw men ana characters in a different light from that in which we are now accu9tomea to view them. "The right to be a cussed fool" is not d like the Klondike gold diggings or Uncle Sam's eminent domains, but is held in com mon fs C. N. Holford says the prines of the Cherokee Nation ara, where eyery white man has a right to marry a siiiftw and make a "whistle out of a pig'd tail," if he wants to. So be mar ries an Octaroon, half blood or full blood sauaw "child of the forest" takes her to his wigwam enters more land, goes to raising wheat and little brown Cherokees, Chocktaws, or what ever the seed mar produce, and makes a "cussed lool" ot niraseii. as mis kind of amalgamation the nation en courages promotes till you mether have a white man, Indian or a nigger to till the land or build up the The father turns from his twany snake eyed progeny with the same feelings the mother hen turns from her brood of waddling ducks when they wade in the mud and mill pond. Tbe mother too is regarded with the same repul sive, incogenous feelings as the child- - ren. Selhsnnesa ana lust urne tne nlace of all the finer sensibilities of the heart and finally breed disgust and sever all family ties and affection Love there was none in the beginning, and hatred usurps its place and over throws man's dominion. man is a "cussed fool" and his wife and little ones are outcasts and pariabu in tbe world. We know some "cussed fools" and could point them out right here at home, besides some of a national char acter. The annexation of Hawaii and adoption of tho mixed breeds of those distant, chaotic sea islands, is another of an avaricious, grasping, bull-raggin- g disposition of the present generation. Our territory is already broad enough and too much divided in local, political and racial interests. What applies to one section is antag onistic to another. Hence we are al ready embroiled in disputes amoung oui selves. With Alaska on our hands, Cuba clamoring for protection and war impending with Spain, we have enough to do without hampering ourselves with Hawaii and another fight with Japan and the barbaric natives of these islands. Tho game is not worth the powder and shot. Nations as well as individuals can make ''cussed fools" of themselves in attempts at aggran- dizement and extension of domain already unmanageable. W. Jennings Bryan is a hut no more of that, Hal, and you love me. Shak. PENITENHABY POPULATION. There are 319 Prlsoneis In the Oregon Pen at the Present Time. There are 319 prisoners in the Ore gon panitentiary. Of these nine are United States prisoners, 124 from Mul- tnomah county, 24 from Marion, 16 each from Douglas, Baker and Union counties, 10 from Clatsop, 11 from Washington, 9 from Jackson, 8 each from Umatilla and Wasco, 7 from Josephine, 6 each from Crook, Grant and Malheur, 5 each from Clackamas, Wallowa and Yamhill, 4 each from Harney, Lane ond Polk, 3 each from Gilliam, Klamath and Linn, 2 each from Coos . and Lake, 1 each from Curry, Columbia and Morrow counties and nonefiom Benton, Lincoln, Sher- man and Tillamook. About two-thir- of these prisoners are regularly employed, 150. of them being under contract in tho stove works in the prison yard; forty-on- e do ing trusty service in fields and barns; ten are doing bouse service as cooks, messengers and gardeners; five are at work on the wood piles in the yard; 20 others are grading the low spots in the yard along Mill creek's banks, and two, who were indisposed, are in the hospital ward. Tbe balance are exercised regularly at the circle gang-wal- k in the prison yard, under the keen surveillance of Yard Guard John Stapleton. ' There are also small crews of men in fairly continuous service in the tin shop, blacksmith shop, carpentry and laun dry, and at present not a few are as signed to various sorts of labor under Contractor R. D. Holman, on the big new pumping station. THE KEMA1NS KEVOVE1), Grave of Dr. Blarens Wnltmao, Near Walla Is Opened. Last Thursday afternoon Marcus Whitman's grave.at Whitman mission, seven miles west oi w&iia. walla, was opened, preparatory to the erection of mausoleum of brick and granite thereon by the Whitman Memorial Association. President Penrose, of Whitman college, a few students and newspaper men only were present, be sides the contractors. Near the surface of the mound in one corner, four skulls nearly intact, were discovered, also a number of minor bones. Tbe skull of Dr. Whit- man was recognized by tbe gold filling s one of his teeth and a tomahawk wound at the base of the skull. Dr. Whitman, his wife and 11 asso ciates, massacred 50 years ago, are supposed to be burried in the grave. LOWELL. towns. The bones were taken to Walla Walla, to be classified by physicians, After being placed in a glass case for inspection for a few days, they will be returned to tneir resting place, and a mausoleum of brick and granite erect ed over them. PULLMAN'S WILL. The Two Sons Are Allowed to Have Only a Liylnr. The will of the late George M. Pull? man, president of the Pullman Car Co., has been admitted to probate, and by its provisions, the immense fortune of the great financier goes principally to his two daughters, Mrs, Frank O, Lowden, of Chicago, and Mrs. Frank Carolan, of San Francisco, each of whom receive $1,000,000, and 'the resi- due of the estate after other bequests are provided for. The widow is liber- ally provided for, receiving the home- stead in Chicago, 150,000 the first year and thereafter the income from The two sons, George M. jr., and Walter S., haying deyeloped little ability as financiers, are provided only with a living during ' their natura lives. a reference to the provision made fpr hia goqs, Mr. Pullman's wjlj says and The Inasmuch as neither of my sons has developed such responsibility as, in my judgment, is requisite for the large use of property and considerable sums of money, I am painfully compelled, as I have explicitly explained to them, to limit my testamentary provisions for their benefit to trusts producing only such incomes as I deem reason able for their support. Accordingly, I direct that out of the remainder of my estate, after satisfying the provis- ions hereinbefore made for my wife and daughters, with respect to said island and Castle Rest, my executors shall set apart bonds, stocks and notes or other securities in two portions, each of such estimated value as will, in the judgment of my executors, yield an annual income of $3000." The will then provides that each of the sons shall receive the amount, $3000, an nually, and should they die leaving is sue it shall be continued to them. Mr. Pullman was indeed one of the great wealth accumulators of tbe age, was a financier who had few equals, bub he failed to instill into his sons business principles fitting them to even have charge and control of prop erty. He like many of the other very rich men of the country, in the pur suit for wealth, neglected to give his pons that training that would fit them to continue as his successors. While his efforts in life as a financier were crowned with success, his duties as a parent were neglected. Land Transfers. N. L. Blowers to G. D. Wood worth, lot 5, sec. A, south Waucoma, $700. iu.

Ttia ear average value of land was $3 835 per acre, as against $3.91 last year. The average value of tillible land was $5.80 I and of non tillible land $1.87. Rall- - roaa tracK was assessed at $4000 per mile, horses at $15.95 per nead, cattle at $10.91, sheep at $1 and swine at $1.63 A GREAT HUNTING OUTFIT. The Extensive of the Khan ot Tartary. The emperor hath two barons who are own brothers, one called Baian, end the other Mingan; and these are styled Ohinuchi (or Cunichi), which is as much as to say: "The Keepers of the Mastiff, Dogs." Each of these hath 10,000 mea under his orders; each of 10,000 being dressed alike, the one in red and the other in, blue, and whenever they accompany the khan to the chase, they wear their in order to be recognized. Out Of each body of 10,000 there are 2,000 men. who are each in charge of one or more great mastiffs, so that whole num ber of these very large. Ajid when the prince goes one of those barons, with his 10,000 men; and some thing like 5,000 dogs, goes towards the right, whilst the other goes toward thQ left with his party in like manner. They move along, all abreast of one another, so that the whole line extends over a full . day's journey, and no an- imal can escape them. Truly it is a glorious sight to see the working of the dogs and tthx huntsmen on such an oc casion ! And as the khan rides acrosn the plains you will see these big hounds coming tearing up, one pack after a bear, another pack after a stag, or some other beast, as it may hap. and running the game down, now on this side, now on that, so that is really a most delightful sport and spectacle. The two brothers I have mentioned. writes Noah Brooks in St. Nicholas, ore bound by the tenure of their office to supply the khan court from Octo- ber to the end of March with 1,000 head of game daily, whether of beasts or birds, and not counting quails; and also with fish to the best of their abil ity, allowing fish enough for three; persons to reckon as equal to one head et game. HIS LOT EASY-ON- Bat the Pestered Untler Couldn't Bee It That Way. A butler who had been 25 years in the same went one morning to his master and said that he wanted to leave, says the Weekly The master, much astonished, asked what his reason was. "Do you want your wages raised, ' John?" "No, sir." "Is it the food that you're complain- - ing of?" "No, sir." . "Well, what is it, then?" "I'd rather not say, sir." "Now, John," said his master, losing his patience, "you've been a long time in my employ, and I insist upon your "Well, sir," said Dhe butler, finally, "if you must know, it's all along of the missus It's nag, nag, .nag from morn-ing"t- o night, and I can't stand it any longer." His master sighed and then said, sol- emnly: "John, go upstairs to your bed room, lock the door and then go down upon your bended knees and thank Heaven that you're not married to her!"

    OCTOBER

    , Yesterday club wheat was quoted at79 and 80 cents in Portland. Theprice here remained at 75 cents.

    A farmer in Union county has just" harvested an experimental crop of su.. gar beets, which by careful measure-

    ment and weight yielded at the rate of2:8 tons to the acre.

    Today four car loads of young horsespassed down the road en route fromPasco to thecannery at Linnton, wherethey will be converted into horse beefand put on the market. .- S. B. Driver, of Wamic. is in thecity today. He says farmers in theWamic country are preparing to putin a large acreage of grain wheneversufficient rains shall fall.

    Half a dozen ships arrived at Portland yesterday all after wheat, whichwill relieve the warehouses in thatcity, and may have the tendency toadvance the price of wheat a cent ortwo.

    daughter of the late Hon. P. Paquet,and niece of Mrs. W. E. Garretson, ofThe Dalles, died at her home in Ore-gon City, yesterday at3 P. M., aged 22years. Miss Paquet bad been an inva-lid for a number of years, being a vic-tim of consumption.

    Peter Nichols, of Oakland, CaL, Isvisiting old friends and acquaintancesin the cily. Mr. Nicholas was formany years a resident of The Dalles,but has been away from here fiveyears.

    At tbe residence of Justice Filloon.In this city last Bight Mr. Chas. F.

    ' Due-la- s and Miss Minnie C. Markhamwere united in marriage. Both areresidents of Dufur, and are highly respected young people.

    Oreon hoD raisers have not strucksuch a Klondike as they thought theywould a month aero. Hops are a dullsale at 13 to 14 cents a pound, but this

    ' is a fairly good price, and will putmost of the hop raisers on easy street,

    A Kentucky editor has called on thesheriff for troops to assist him in getting out his paper. There are someeditors in Pendleton who will likely becompelled to do some thing, judgingfrom the matter that appears in theirpapers.

    Pendleton is experiencing a sort ofmoral wave that has bean set in motion by the grand jury now in sessionat that place. A job lot of indictmentshas been returned against gamblersand prostitutes which is making lifeuncomfortable for that class of people,

    Hon. B. F. Nichols, county treasurerof Crook county, spent the day in thec'tv visiting old friends. Mr. Nicholshas been in Walla Walla visiting hisdaughter, Mrs. G. A. Winckler, andis returning to his home at Prineville,Mr. Nichols is one of tbe earlypioneers of Oregon, having come here53 years ago, and is a perfect encyclo-pedia of Oregon history.

    The semi-annu- report of the countycler, sheriff and treasurer of Wascocounty show that on Sept. 30, the totalindebtedness of the county was $107,504.61; total resources, $25,970.40; netliabilities, $81,577.21. The total amountof warrants drawn for the six monthsending Sept. 30, was $18,427.07, whichshows tbe expenses of the county to beabout 3o,uuu a year.

    As the farmers throughout the country sell their wheat they satisfy themortgages held on their farms byforeign loan associations, and relievethemselves from dobts that hare beenhanging over them for years. Now ifthey will just firmly resolve to neveragain mortgage the farm, they will seeeasier times in the future. To get outof debt and stay out is the best knownantidote for hard times.

    The trial of Ben Ward,of Clatsop county, who is under indictment for having, appropriated some$14,000 of county funds, was begun atAstoria yesterday, and will probablycontinue until the end oi tbe weekWard and Mb deputy have raised sulfrcient funds to reimburse tbe county,which will probably save him from aterm in the penitentiary.

    The beer produced by the Columbiabrewery of this city has ever enjoyed areputation as being A 1, and that ithas not lost its standing is evidencedby the fact that the brewery is beingrun on full time, turning out thousands of gallons of beer daily. TheColumbia brewery, like the Diamondmills, has a reputation for turning outit first class article, and both thesemanufacturing industries are knownabroad as well as at home, just as anyother manufacturing concern wouldbe if established in Tbe Dalles.

    More trouble has been piled up onJ. P. McManus, editor of the Pendle-ton Republican. Besides being in-dicted for criminal libel, the Umatillacounty grand jury has returned an in-dictment charging him with gambling

    playing the great American game ofdraw poker. He may be guilty of thefirst charge but it is ridiculous tocharge him with having played poker.It takes money to indulge in that lux-ury, and money is something Oregoneditors seldom if ever have. McManuswill certainly come clear on thatcharge.

    Hon. E. B. Dufur has returned fromPrineville where he had been attend--,

    Ing court. When ho left Prineville ! feed, be decided to open them. Afterall the business of the court had beenconcluded except the trial of Bush,who had been indicted for murder inthe second degree. Last July Bushkilled young Cadle at a dance in thesouthern part of the county. His casewas to havo been called up last Mon-day morning. He bad employed JudgoBennett, of The Dalles, and JudgeBrink, of Prineville, to defend him,and the state was represented by Dis-trict Attorney Jayne and ' Geo. W.Barnes.

    Slowly but surely United StatesSenator John L. Wilson is puttingtbe republican office seekers out oftheir suspense. The latest to securefederal oSBce are Wilson R. Gay, ofSeattle, for the office of United Statesatorney, and Chas. E. Claypool, ofTacoma, as assistant United States attorney, senator Wilson has every-thing his own way when it comes todispensing federal patronage in Wash-ington, which accounts for the alacritywith bich ho has been able to disposeof tbe job, and ho didn't hold any bar-gain counter meetings either.

    From Thursday's Daily.Mrs. Sophia Lauer, of Portland, is

    visiting her sons, Charles and Jerome,in this city.

    Thus far this season the Salem flour-ing mills have bought 144,000 bushelsof wheat at prices racging from 69 to82 cents.

    Recently Z. M. Brown and PeltonBros, bought 1,500 head of cattle inWillamette valley that they will driveto Crook county this fall.

    Gov. W. J. McConoell, of Idaho, isin the city today. The governors visithas no political significance, as he ishere only on a friendly visit..

    A gang of thirty hobop who hadbeen run out of Spokane made a raidon Cheney Monday night, and werepromptly run into the city jail by themarshal.

    Farmers are becoming convincedthat 75 cents a bushel is about all theyare going to realize for wheat this season, and a good many are selling atthat price.

    Capt. A. S. Blowers and his son, L.N. Blowers, mayor of Hood River,have gone to Sumpter, Baker county,with the view of opening a store atthat place.

    The Rustler thinks Lake county! Isentitled to the belt as the most prolificbarley producer in tbe state. Mrs.Foster '8 crop on Summer lake averaged107 bushels per acre. '

    Dr. Sutherland returned last eveningfrom Astoria, and is somewhat im-proved in health. The doctor is hope-ful that his health will so improve asto enable him to remain in The Dalles.

    It is expected the new steamshipline between Astoria and San Fran-cisco will be in operation within thenext three or four weeks. Cheapfreight and passenger ratas will thenbe the order.

    There's a new coon in town, and hehas taken up his lodgings in the showwindow of the Snipes-Kinnersl- y drugstore. He is a diminutive coon, but asan advertiser attracts more attentionthan any other colored gentleman intown.

    Klickitat club wheat commands Hcents a bushel more than Wasco countywheat here, and Klickitat bluestem isfrom 3 to Zi cents above club, makingit worth from 78 to 79 cents a bushel,and some has been sold the past fewdays at 80 cents.

    Eugene has been overrun with hoboes, and five of them were placed under arrest last Sunday. One is a mereboy, 14 years old, whose home is inSalem. He has served one term inthe reform school, and will probablybe sent back there,

    Last week French & Co.'s bank paidout $170,000 on checks drawn by wheatbuyers, for wheat purchased in Wasco,onerman ana micmtat counties. This snug little sum went intocirculation among the farmers andgoes a long ways toward creating prosperity.

    A man from Klondike became indignant because a Seattle man wouldn'buy his mine, paying $400,000 for itwithout examining the property orlearning anything about it. TheseKlondike fellows seems to think thatall that is necessary is to say Klondikeand the suckers will bite. -

    The committee of the Commercialclub to buy carpets and furniture forthe club rooms Messrs. Blakely,Pease and Wilson returned last evening from Portland, where they boughtthe chairs and couche9 for the club,amounting to about $350 worth. Thecarpets for tho rooms will be boughtin San Francisco and will cost about$400, wholesale prices.

    In 1894, eays tbe Walla Walla Statesman, John (Jorum cut bis grain with a

    arvester, carefully bound it andplaced it in three large stacks, but theheavy rains came on and the' stackssanit so low and were so green withthe growing grain that their owner

    "I havo never had a day's sicknessin idv life." said a middle-age- d manthe other day.

    "cussko roots."Thi rc Are Still Some of Them In the Worm

    Seeden.

    The yersitile writer Seeden in theLancaster (Wis.) Teller, presents some

    nun cent remarks about; foolsthat furnishes rather racy reading,Seeden gives vent to his ideas as follows: .

    Thinks

    'The right to be a cussed foolT ifo frr.m all devices human."

    What right Lowell had to state suchnn axiom is a little enigmatical. Hewrote English as it is spoken in NewFWUnd and took a Yankee view oft.'mntra. nnil nrnbablv saw men anacharacters in a different light fromthat in which we are now accu9tomeato view them. "The right to be acussed fool" is not d like theKlondike gold diggings or Uncle Sam'seminent domains, but is held in common fs C. N. Holford says the prinesof the Cherokee Nation ara, whereeyery white man has a right to marrya siiiftw and make a "whistle out of apig'd tail," if he wants to. So be marries an Octaroon, half blood or fullblood sauaw "child of the forest"takes her to his wigwam enters moreland, goes to raising wheat and littlebrown Cherokees, Chocktaws, or whatever the seed mar produce, and makesa "cussed lool" ot niraseii. as miskind of amalgamation the nation encourages promotes till you metherhave a white man, Indian or a niggerto till the land or build up theThe father turns from his twany snakeeyed progeny with the same feelingsthe mother hen turns from her broodof waddling ducks when they wade inthe mud and mill pond. Tbe mothertoo is regarded with the same repulsive, incogenous feelings as the child- -ren. Selhsnnesa ana lust urne tnenlace of all the finer sensibilities ofthe heart and finally breed disgust andsever all family ties and affectionLove there was none in the beginning,and hatred usurps its place and overthrows man's dominion. man is a"cussed fool" and his wife and littleones are outcasts and pariabu in tbeworld. We know some "cussed fools"and could point them out right here athome, besides some of a national character. The annexation of Hawaii andadoption of tho mixed breeds of thosedistant, chaotic sea islands, is another

    of an avaricious, grasping,bull-raggin- g disposition of the presentgeneration. Our territory is alreadybroad enough and too much divided inlocal, political and racial interests.What applies to one section is antagonistic to another. Hence we are already embroiled in disputes amoungoui selves. With Alaska on our hands,Cuba clamoring for protection and warimpending with Spain, we have enoughto do without hampering ourselveswith Hawaii and another fight withJapan and the barbaric natives ofthese islands. Tho game is not worththe powder and shot. Nations as wellas individuals can make ''cussed fools"of themselves in attempts at aggran-dizement and extension of domainalready unmanageable. W. JenningsBryan is a hut no more of that, Hal,and you love me. Shak.

    PULLMAN'S WILL.

    The Two Sons Are Allowed to Have Only aLiylnr.

    The will of the late George M. Pull?man, president of the Pullman Car Co.,has been admitted to probate, and byits provisions, the immense fortune ofthe great financier goes principally tohis two daughters, Mrs, Frank O,Lowden, of Chicago, and Mrs. FrankCarolan, of San Francisco, each ofwhom receive $1,000,000, and 'the resi-due of the estate after other bequestsare provided for. The widow is liber-ally provided for, receiving the home-stead in Chicago, 150,000 the first yearand thereafter the income from

    The two sons, George M. jr.,and Walter S., haying deyeloped littleability as financiers, are provided onlywith a living during ' their naturalives. a reference to the provisionmade fpr hia goqs, Mr. Pullman's wjljsays

    The

    Inasmuch as neither of my sons has

    developed such responsibility as, inmy judgment, is requisite for the largeuse of property and considerable sumsof money, I am painfully compelled,as I have explicitly explained to them,to limit my testamentary provisionsfor their benefit to trusts producingonly such incomes as I deem reasonable for their support. Accordingly,I direct that out of the remainder ofmy estate, after satisfying the provis-ions hereinbefore made for my wifeand daughters, with respect to saidisland and Castle Rest, my executorsshall set apart bonds, stocks and notesor other securities in two portions,each of such estimated value as will, inthe judgment of my executors, yieldan annual income of $3000." The willthen provides that each of the sonsshall receive the amount, $3000, annually, and should they die leaving issue it shall be continued to them.

    Mr. Pullman was indeed one of thegreat wealth accumulators of tbe age,was a financier who had few equals,bub he failed to instill into his sonsbusiness principles fitting them toeven have charge and control of property. He like many of the other veryrich men of the country, in the pursuit for wealth, neglected to give hispons that training that would fit themto continue as his successors. Whilehis efforts in life as a financier werecrowned with success, his duties as aparent were neglected.

    A GREAT HUNTING OUTFIT.

    The Extensive of the Khan otTartary.

    The emperor hath two barons whoare own brothers, one called Baian,end the other Mingan; and these arestyled Ohinuchi (or Cunichi), which isas much as to say: "The Keepers of theMastiff, Dogs." Each of thesehath 10,000 mea under his orders; each

    of 10,000 being dressed alike, theone in red and the other in, blue, andwhenever they accompany the khan tothe chase, they wear their inorder to be recognized. Out Of eachbody of 10,000 there are 2,000 men. whoare each in charge of one or moregreat mastiffs, so that whole number of these very large. Ajid whenthe prince goes one of thosebarons, with his 10,000 men; and something like 5,000 dogs, goes towards theright, whilst the other goes towardthQ left with his party in like manner.They move along, all abreast of oneanother, so that the whole line extendsover a full . day's journey, and no an-imal can escape them. Truly it is aglorious sight to see the working of thedogs and tthx huntsmen on such an occasion ! And as the khan rides

    acrosn the plains you will see thesebig hounds coming tearing up, onepack after a bear, another pack after astag, or some other beast, as it may hap.and running the game down, now onthis side, now on that, so that isreally a most delightful sport andspectacle.

    The two brothers I have mentioned.writes Noah Brooks in St. Nicholas,ore bound by the tenure of their officeto supply the khan court from Octo-ber to the end of March with 1,000head of game daily, whether of beastsor birds, and not counting quails; andalso with fish to the best of their ability, allowing fish enough for three;persons to reckon as equal to one headet game.

    "No, sir.""Is it the food that you're complain- -

    his patience, "you've been a long timein my employ, and I insist upon your

    "Well, sir," said Dhe butler, finally, "ifyou must know, it's all along of themissus It's nag, nag, .nag from morn-ing"t- o

    night, and I can't stand it anylonger."

    His master sighed and then said, sol-emnly: "John, go upstairs to your bedroom, lock the door and then go downupon your bended knees and thankHeaven that you're not married toher!"
