Garden seeds are finding sale and the crisp and tender not to say odoriferous younSnion will soon make its appear ' ' ance in the markets. Third street west from the court house is having considerable work done on it, and when the ground gets packed it will - ' be the finest street in the city. We noticed today a fine lot of let- : tuce on sale at one of oar stands, . The next will be radishes if this kind of r' weather continues much longer. The truth is not always truthful if the old adage is correct, for that distinctly asserts that "Truth lies, at the bottom of 4i well." Hon, A. J. Dufur visited our sanctum 'today.

Someone who understands Jhe hotel business and has the capital to start one can find the best location in the state by .visiting Hood River. All the place needs to make it one of the finest summer re sorts in the northwest, is a good hotel, . and it would be filled to its utmost ca ' paciry all summer. .' Something should be done by our citi sens towards getting a survey for a rail road to the. Fossil coal fields and . our Board of Trade should take hold of the matter at its next meeting. The coal is pronounced by experts the best on the coast. . . The question some of the visitors at the locks Sunday have been trying to solve since their return is, with 190 men employed, how can $40,000 be expended each month? With less than 90 actually employed the question becomes yet more difficult. Mr. Minto's bill to create the office of state railroad " commissioner is , very lengthy. It has some good features one of which is that it makes the office an . elective one. It also gives the commls sion considerable power, and would no j doubt, be a vast improvement on the present powerless board. j The inside of the court house has been ilnfc&ed up and is an artistic job, of -which Mr. Crandal), who had charge of The Signal Service and the the Weather. : The signal service was established by the government in 1870 for the benefit of commerce and agriculture, are placed on der the supervision of the war depart ment, and in charge of the late illustrious officer.Brigadier-General Albert J.Meyer, its creator, as the chief signal officer, with headquarters at Washington, D. C. At the death of General Meyer, General William B. Hazan was appointed chief signal officer and remained in charge until Lieut. A. W. Greeley relieved him. Since then the service has made great changes in its extensiveness, and im portance as an educator of meteorologi cal phenomenon. Its study has devel oped its usefulness and benefits, not only to agriculture but to commerce. The past year has shown to the seafaring that its observance has not only saved priceless lives but a large number of ves sels. At the mouth of the Columbia river and at Puget sound, vessels were safely moored for weeks through the forecasts of terrible storms that were approaching our shores the past year. The signal officer - at San Fran cisco, which is the real head for this coast, is in telegraphic communication with every signal office on the Pacific slope, and at 5 p. m. every day receives a report of the day's readings of the barometer, thermometer, relative hu midity, direction and velocity of the wind, from Spokane, Walla Walla, Boise City and Baker City in the interior, and Port Angeles, Olympia, Fort Canby, Wash., Portland, Roeeburg, Bandan, Coos Bav, Or., Red Bluffs, Sacramento, LosAngele8, San Diego, Cal., Virgin City, Nevada and Salt Lake, Utah, From these readings the center of calms. storms, rain, snow, cyclone or what ever the changes are to be expected are arrived at, and the forecasts are sent out to each regular station at 8 o'clock p. m. of each day, except in some in stances where application is made for morning forecasts, which are for the ben efit of the farming districts only. The displays then would read from 12 m. 12 v. the next dav. . No. 1, white flag, six feet square, dicates clear or fair weather. No. blue nag, six feet square, indicates ram or snow.

Forcasta of Resolutions by the Farmers, To the Honorable the Oregon Delegation in the Congress of the United States, We whose names are appended hereto, chairman and secretary of a meeting of the farmers of Eastern Oregon, and representing The Eastern Oregon Co operative association of the Patrons, of Husbandry (limited) in the name and behaif of said farmers of Eastern Oregon would most respectfully memorialize you, our representatives at the national capital as follows : First. The experience of the present season has amply demonstrated by im mense piles of grain (the farmers coin) at every station alone the single line of railway that traverses this section, awaiting shipment and virtually locking up millions of dollars as weli as for an indefinite time depriving the farmer of bis hard earned scanty gains, that some measure of immediate relief must be le vised or the science of agriculture will be come in the basin of the Columbia, one of the lost arts. Second. We believe that as a tem porary measure oi relief by far the best and cheapest solution of the problem is a portage railway around the obstruc tions to navigation in the Columbia between Dalles City and Celilo known as The Dalles of the Columbia. A bill for a similar railway around the Cascades to afford temporary relief at that point appropriating $00,000 of state funds has already passed the state senate and ere this memorial reaches you, will undoubt edly bv the votes of the members of the lower house and the signature of the governor of this commonwealth, have become a law. Third. As a permanent and final measure, we unhesitatingly recommend a canal with locks at the point abov mentioned, (The Dalles of the Columbia) firmly believing that no other method is as cheap or as beneficial in the end. We have briefly set forth above, the urgent needs of at least a third of the inhabitants of the great state which has honored you by entrusting its interests to your care. It is no common memorial idly asking for some fancied tov, which greets you, but rather the urgent in sistent appeal of men who have been j-our friends when needed and who now in turn appeal to yon for the absolutely necessary aid which com mon justice and sound public policy dictate. We have asked for bread, will vou kindly see that we do not receive stone? M. W. Freeman, Wm. Holdek, Chairman. Sec. Farmers' Convention. The Dalles, Or., Jan. 28, 1891. WE'LL HAVE A DOME.

We believe Oregon should give more toward building a portage railway at the cascades and dalles of the Columbia than in making an exhibit of her pro duce in Chicago. Pass the portage rail road bill first, ye members from Eastern Oregon. . The people of .hastern Oregon must secure an open river to the sea, and thereby secure low freight rates, if they desire to have the country nil up with people whose watchword is "prog ress." Eastern Oregon will always be of small importance if she allows corpora tions to suck blood from her veins for the benefit of non-resident bond-holders and bloated millionaires. . An open river to the sea would do much to remove the shackles that keen the country and her people in a lethargic condition. Fossil Journal. the work." and Mr. Kreft and the deco rators an justly feel proud. The outside td the court honse will be finished up in . 'style similar to Mr. Nickelsen's hand some brick. At several places where there are . 'bulletin boards there is written favorable news from Washington in relation to the early completion of the locks at the Cas cades. Sonne ubiquitous individual has written nnderaealh "Rats," . which" is quite suggestive. Mr. A. H. Jewett lb nurseryman of White Salmon is in the eity, ' We asked him if he had finished shipping fruit trees for the season, and he replied that with the assistance of Jay Gould he got through last month when the Baker was pulled off the route. -' Harvey Warner son of S. O. Warner, of Tygh Ridge and Joseph Kennedy were taking a ride in a wagon a day or two ago near Mr. Warners place when the horses became frightened and ran away. One tug came loose, and the tongue dropped to the ground, and one of ihe wheels striking a rock, Henry was itfcrown into the spokes of the hind wheel. Oue of his legs was broken above the ' " knee, Kennedy injured his ankle badly rand will be laid up some time. ' Dr. Whitcomb of Dufur was called and re paired all damages so that time will ring them through all right. Every old resident of the Inland Em pire thoroutrhlv understands and appre ciates .the necessity for an open and free Columbia river, before the people can attain the standard of prosperity that is possible under favorable circumstances. The Water Ways convention, called to meet at Walla Walla on February 5, should be attended by representatives from every section. , Every farmers' alli ance, every business community, every voting precinct in the Inland Empire, should send some one, who will assist in the deliberations of that convention. The opening of the Columbia river can and will be accomplished within three years, provided the entire population who for years have been waiting for this to be done, shall meet and demand the doing. Let the convention be attended by the representatives of every community in the Inland sections of Washington, Oregon and Idaho; let them petition their legislature, now in session, to memorialize congress, and the Union's word for it, their task is accomplished. Walla Walla Union. The commission to locate the north boundary of the Warm Springs reserva tion left this morning to begin their labors, the first of whkh is to find Mut ton mountain. According to the Indian theory the Una runs from the base ,of Mutton mountain to an oak slump, and thence "yaweh." Company A, Third regiment, had large attendance at company drill last evening and Captain Thompson says it is his intention to have a larger turnout next week. Several new recruits were brought in, and we hope that the inter est that is now. being shown maybe con- ! tinned. . ,' . ." The Farmers Heard From. The Dai.lkh, Oregon., Jan. 17. 1891. Whereas The Dalles is the shipping and distributing point on the Columbia river for over 150,000 tons of freight an nually, at the estimated cost for the 88 miles between said city and Portland of over $900,000. Whereas, in addition to such char ges on the products of the farm and range, bv the company having the monopoly of the Columbia river pass, as threaten in the near future to destroy the agricultural interests of Eastern Or egon and Washington, the said company has, during the past session, proved its, utter in capacity to move in proper sea son, the increasing products of said sec tion, to the great loss of the producting classes. , AVhebeas, the obstructions of the Cascades of the Columbia, which we des pair ot seeing removed sooner than from ten to twenty years, render it im possible for a private or public river transportation company to subsist in competition with a powerful and wealthy corporations, unless the cost of transfer shall be lower than it is possible to be under any practical system, more expen sive than a portage railroad. Whereas, we believe that such a portage railroad in connection with a line of boats on the middle Columbia would save to the farmers and producers many times its cost-to the state annually, and Whebeas, we believe that without some such relief in the immediate future the- interests of the producers of said section will be greatly imperiled, if not fatally ruined, now therefore, be it Resolved, that we the members of the Eastern Oregon Co-operative Associa tion, very earnestly urge the Honorable the Legislative assembly of the state of Oregon, to support and pass the bill now before the senate of said assembly for the sum of $60,000 for the building and eonimnent of a portaae railroad at the Cascades of the Columbia and be it, Further resolved that a copy of this resolution be sent to the senators and representatives of Wasco Gilliam and Sherman counties. Adopted by a unanimous vote this 27th day of January 1891. , w. M. r re EM AN, Wm. Holden,. President. Secretary. A Baseball Plaint. Dufcr, Or., Jan. 26, 1890. We are tired, tired of waiting for what will not come. This has been a fine day for baseball, and the reception commit tee looked rather forlorn, standing on the sidewalks looking for those that did pot appear. The expense money was placed on deposit we repaired to the baseball ground at 1 o'clock p. m. with shouldered clubs ready to do battle with the Stars of The Dalles but we did not find them. For some .unaccountable reason they did not make their appear ance. The Planets, the Dufur club, were sadly disappointed because they did not get a chance to try their skill with The Dalles club. ' . Sam. Talmagre on Saloon Keepers. Rev. T. De Witt Talmage, in an ad dress to saloon keepers, closes with his strong paragraph: "I tell you plainly that you will meet your customers one day when there will be no counter be tween you. When your work is done on earth, and you enter the reward of your business, all the souls of the men whom you have destroyed will crowd around you, and pour their bitterness into your cud. Thev will show von their wounds and say Too made them ; and point to tneir unquenchable thirst, and say You kindled it, and rattle the chain and say, xou forged it. Ihen their united groans ill smite vour ear; and with the hands out of which you once picked the six pences and the dimes, they will push you off' the verge of great " precipices: while rolling up frdm beneath, and breaking among the crags of death, 'Woe to hfin that giveth his neighbor drink!" The word "hobo" as used m Oreeon for a bad character, is said to be derived from the Indian word "Hobomocco,'' . a bad or evil genius. In other states it is used as a term of derision, and has prob ably a dinerent derivation. Chappie How did you get hurt, deah b oy : Chollv A shadow fell on roe.

A special from Mt. Pleasant, Pa., says that a gas ex plosion in the mammoth shaft of the H. C; Frick Coke Cos mine, abont ten miles from this place occurred this morning. Between 50 and 80 men were in the mine at tbe time of the explosion. Eighteen bodies have been taken out. It is estimated that fifty men are killed. It is very difficult to get particulars of the explosion although it occurred at nine this morning. The mines are about half way between Latrobe and Mount Pleasant. The ma chinery which runs the fans was not in jured and plenty of fresh air was forced into the mine to sustain theliving and allow rescuing parties to enter in safety and bring out the bodies. The mine is badly wrecked in places and it is not possible to get an accurate idea of the number living or injured who may be burned 6r imprisoned. There is no fire in the mine iesulting from the explosion. It is said that most of the killed are either English speaking or German miners. The shaft is about 100 feet deep and has a number of galleries. The superintendent has organized re lief parties and is busily engaged in try ing to penetrate the mine. Kins; Kalakaua's Death WU1 not Dis turb the Relations. Sax Francisco, Jan. 25. Colonel Mac Farlane, chamberlain to the late King Kalakaua, when shown a dispatch from Denver stating that a plan was on foot to overthrow the Hawaiian throne and inaugurate a republic with himself as president, characterized it as an absurd statement with not a particle of truth in it. The colonel leaves for Honolula on the steamer Australia on Tuesday next. Colonel MacFarlane does not share the opinion that Queen Liliaukalini is in clined to affiliate closely with England, and believes that the death of the king will not influence reciprocity of Hawaii with the United States, because he knows the queen to be thoroughly im bued with the spirit which has for many years been the ruling sentiment of Kal akaua in reference to his policy toward America. Colonel MacFarlane has most of King Kalakaua's private papers in his posses sion, and will take them to Honolulu. He states that the casket in which the body will be transported will not be used at the final interment, it being the custom from time immemorial to bury monarchs in Hawaiian coffins of native wood, elaborately embellished. Accord ing to Colonel MacFarlane's statement the body will lie in state in the throne room for one week after its arrival Honolulu, and the colonel thinks that at least three weeks will pass after the Charleston reaches the island before the king's body will be placed in its final resting place, the grand mausoleum, in groves of Nunaun valley. Colonel McFarlane was prevented by illness from returning to Honolula on the Charleston, but has nearly recovered He also said today that the real object of Kalakaua's visit to the United States was to readjust the Hawaiian reciproc ity treaty and have it taken out of the operation of the McKinley bill. In fact he had delayed his departure so as to hear from his minister at Washington and, if his illness had not prevented, he had intended making a flying trip Washington to see , the president and Mr. Blaine in person, on the subject, His influence during the last session of the Hawaiian legislature prevented any action being taken by them on the sub ject for fear it would make the question more difficult. THE HORROR GROWS. ANOTHER EXODUS. Large Bodies of Negrroes MoTinjr To wards Oklahoma. Birmingham, Ala., Jan 27. A big ex odus of negroes from the state to Okla homa has set in. Fifty families of negroes left here yesterday for King fisher, and they will be followed in a few days by 200 families of negroes. A Negro by the name of Foster from Leavenworth, Kansas has been among the Negroes here some time, working up business. He represents to them that they can obtain rich farming lands in Oklahoma for almost nothing, and if enough of them go they can secure absolute control and government of the territory. The latter seems to be the principal inducement. A number of Negroes who owned good farms here have sold out everything and will join in the exodus. A COWBOY DUEL. Bad Texas Bore Each Other. Holes Men From Through Chevesxe, Wyo., Jan. 25. Details of a duel between cowboys at Lander have been received, which show it to have been a deliberately planned affair. One of the cowboys goes by the name of Six Shooter Billy and the other is called Dab. Their trouble arose over a game of cards and they, decided to settle it with six-shooters. They adjourned to a corral near the ranch buildings. Several cowboys attempted to stop the fight but without success. The men stood back to back, then each walked fifteen steps turned and commenced firing. Six- Shooter Billy was killed, four bullets tr iking Tiim before he fell. Dab was shot three times, in the head, shoulder and hip. He is lying at the ranch in a dying condition. Both men are from Texas, but their real names are not known. . INGALLS WILL RETIRE.

A World's Boul ogne special says : The rival Irish fac tions have been talking at the Hotel du Louvre for two days, but tonight they are apparently no nearer a settlement oi the tiresome dispute than before, Mc Carthy and Sexton are fresh from Ha warden, whither they went to get assur ance for Parnell's demands as the price of his retirement. If Gladstone had rev fused these assurances there would have been an end to the negotiations at once. Their continuance shows that some basip of settlement is under discussion. The first thing McCarthy did on seeing O' Brien and Dillon was to telegraph to the Bantry factions at Dublin to stop all agitation against Parnell until the Boul ogne meeting was over. This also in dicates the. issue of the conference to be helpful, as otherwise McCarthy would not obstruct any Parnell campaign. Status of the Behrins; Sea Supreme Court Suit. Washington, Jan. 27. The brief of the attorney general in reply to the ap plication of the Canadian government for writ of prohibition in the case of W. Sayward, libelled for catching seals Behriug sea, was filed with the Supreme court today. The attorney general holds that the supreme court has no power in any case to issue a writ of prohibition to the Sitka court because it is not a district court of the United States being merely a territorial court. - Onr Ex-Postmaster General in Luck.

Jan. 28. One Hun dred and seven bodies have been taken from the ill-fated mine of Frick & Co. at the Mammoth mine up to 10 o'clock this' morning. It is estimated that the re mains of at least seventeen more victims of yesterday's explosion are still in the pit. It is thought that all will be out in a few hours. Nobody slept at Mammoth last night, In every home and in every little mining hamlet there was mourning. Fifty coffins arrived from Pittsburg this morning and another half a hun dred will reach here tonight. An additional order for twenty-five more was sent this morning. The cause of the explosion is not yet determined. " The coroner is on the ground and a thorough investigation will be made. Roll call of all men is in progress and by. this the exact number of missing will be well known. The rescuing party is working with energy ana the wreck: in the shaft is being fast cleared up. Officials of the Frick company said this morning : "It may never be known how or why the explosion occurred. An accumulation of fire damp was probably the cause, but it was never known to exist in any quantity before, in fact it may be said that the Mammoth mine has been free from damp. There is a theory that a pocket of natural gas was reached and that the operation of venti lating fans now prevents any accumula tion of it." - There has been found up to 2 o'clock this afternoon 110 bodies and of this number, fifty-three have been identified. No Prizefighting in Minnesota. St. Path,, Jan. 25. Yesterday the athletic clubs of St. Paul and Minne apolis were thrown into consternation by the introduction of a bill by Senator Dean, of St. Paul, making all public fistic encounters, challenges and the conveyance of challenges misdemeanors in the eyes of the law.
