he is disbursing officer have just finished
their work, having made their final re
port from Colfax, Wash., on the 8th inst.
The part of their work in which we are I
most interested in is their report on the
northern boundary of the Warm Spring
reservation. An interview with ' Mr.
Dnfer reveals the fact that the commis
sion found that the McQuinn line is not
the northern boundary line of the reser
vation according to the treaty made in
1855 through Joel Palmer with the con
federated tribes now known us the Warm
Spring Indians. The commission ap
proves the Handley line up to the 2Hth
mile post from the place of beginning in
the middle of the channel of the Pis
chutes river, thence in a westernly di
rection to the north-west corner of
the reservation. The commission were
entirely unanimous in their report, and
we hope their finding will be approved
as we have no doubt of its justice and
we are persuaded that it will meet the
approval of the whites, who have only
asked that the line be made to conform
to the original treaty.
Mr. Dufur speaks in the highest term
of his brother commissioners. Every
thing between them was harmonious and
pleasant. A treaty was made with the
Indians of the Colville reservation for
the surrender of a million and a half
acres of their lands. Mr. Dufurdescribes P ?,idid?11'

these lands as the finest he ever saw for
all purposes. The selection meets the
highest approval of the paople of Wash
ington and Mr. Dufur will endeavor to
have the Oregon delegation support that
of Washington in its effort to have the
selection and sale confirmed. Mr. Payne
a member of t he commission from North
Carolina promises to secure the same
support on behalf of the delegation from
his state. Mr. Dufurspeaks in the high
est terms of the people of Washington
for their hospitality and enterprise. The
work of the commission will end on the
12 inst., when Mr. Dufur and his brother
commissioners will again return to priv
ate life. We can only say that if the
work of the commission in Washington
has been done as conscientiously and
fairly and with as much painstaking to
do what is strictly right and honorable
as it was done' here and we have no
doubt of that, the cordial thanks of the
communities more immediately concern
ed are due to the commission. From
our own 'personal knowledge we know
that the decision of the commission on
the north boundary line of the Warm
Spring reservation will meet with the
cordial approval of the beople of the
Wapinitia neighborhood, while we be
lieve it to be strictly fair and just to the
Indians as well.

RESOLUTION OF KESPECT.
Last evening the Alumni of the W.
A. gave a very pleasant reception to the
graduates, at the residence of Mr. W
G. Woodworth. At 0 o'clock, the mem'
bers of the classes who bad graduated in
the years -past, gathered, with the teach
era around daintily laid luncheon tables
and the new class of three young ladies
was introduced by Mr. H. Riddell in
few well chosen words, and was received
by the vice-president, Miss" Jessie Welch
in a manner, befitting the ' occasion
1 he company,. lingered around the tables
till 12 o'clock, when they seperated - for
their several homes, having had a most
enjoyable tune. "
A little sensation ' happened in the
quiet town of Dufur evening before last
A lady lecturer had obtained the use of
I he Dufnr M. E. Church, evidently
. through a misunderstanding on the part
of the pastor, Rev. T. W. Atkinson, and
proceeded to deliver a rousing rational
iitic lecture.-- At ' tbe close and before
the house had retired the pastor an
nounced that the audience would trans
form itself into a prayer meeting and
then called on the lady to make the
- opening prayer. It Is needless to say
f.he politely declined bnt . the grayer
meeting went on, notwithstanding .
Mr. Alex McLeod, who is a juror at
- the present term of court, paid a flying
visit to his home at Kingsley on Friday
returning on Sunday. He reports grain
on Ty gh Ridge as looking well but not
growing fast, on account of the cold wea
ther. '.There was a frost on Saturday
night which however, did no greatly per
'ceptible injury. " The ground is thor
oughly Boafcea ana it. there is a poor
crop in that neighborhood it will not be
from lack of . moisture. All they need
there is warm'" weather. Mr." McLeod
llievee" the Tygh Ridge will turnout as
large a crop of grain this year as it ever
did.
A change in the management of the
Oehoeo Reveiw has taken place, Dayton
Elliot having purchased a half interest
in the paper, and hereafter it will be pub
lished and conducted by Donthit &.
Elliot. A further change is indicated by
the announcement that six years exper;
ience has taught the past manager that
the field is too small for a. strictly
partisan paper and that in the future it
will be run on strictly independent lines,
. The country cannot have too many inde
pendent papers and we wish it abundant
snccess.
Mr. Truman Butler, writing to his
father from Lecompton, Kansas, thus
describee a Kansas thunder shower:
"Of all the fireworks and discharging of
heavy artillery which I ever heard, this
was certainly the grandest. Thunder!
yea it thundered till one could well ima
gine bimaerf in the battle of "Waterloo.
The lightning waa a grander sight than
the people of The Dalles witnessed when
Chinatown was burned or Ben Snipes
had his fireworks. Bnt all this was too
fine to last long. Then as if the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans bad joined hands
over na and with their united strength
had resolved to baptise us, the ram
descended.
Important Cam.1 Ilcov:erfeii. -
' A discovery was made a short time ago
by Mr. Alex Kelsay of Antelope that
mav prove to be of more importance to
the people of The Dalles than the Fossil
coal fields. It is that of two veins of
what is believed to be a first quality of
coal which have been traced for nearly
fonr miles on the east bank of the .Des
chutes river, nearly opposite the Mutton
mountains in this county. Five claims
have J been located already and two
week's work done to develope the veins.
Samples of the coal are now on their
wav to Portland to be tested. The locat
ors besides the discoverer are M. J
Anderson, J. C. Kelsay, W. F. Kelsay
and H. B. Hendricks. The latter is a
brother of the editors of the Fossil Jour
nal; the Salem Statesman and the Weston
, Leader.
The veins are about 12x30 feet and
there is said to be twice the quantity of
coal in sight that there is at Fossil. The
new Norton survey touches a point only
a few miles north of the discovery. The
writer saw a sample of the coal today
and he fondly hopes it may prove equal
to the expectations of the locaters.
Mr. Chittenden's Resignation.
Deputy Postmaster W. L. Chittenden,
of this city, has tendered his resignation
and will shortly remove to Ocosta, in
Washington. Mr. Chittenden is one of
the most amply qualified men in the
post-office service of this coast. For
seventeen years he was the assistant
postmaster of Portland and it was the
earnest desire of more than three-fourths
of the people of that city that Mr. Chit-
tenden b made postmaster in full,
but while he was attending to his duties
in giving that city the best postal ser
vice it has ever had, a wily politi
cian, who had a pull, obtained the
honors that Mr. Chittenden so richly' de
served, and The Dalles has been the
gainer in having been so fortunate as to
have secured, Mr. Chittenden's services.
Always courteous and obliging, he is
honored and respected by all who know
him. We congratulate the people of
Ocosta in having won so good a citi
en as Mr. Chittenden and desire to ex
press our regrets that he is to leave The
Dalles office.
To the Memory of the Late Judge J.
Bird.

trict have sustained by reason of the
death of Hon. J. H. Bird, ex-judge of this
judicial district and being desirous of ex
Dressing their feeling of sorrow and re

I. That the bar of said Wasco countv
do hereby attest their appreciation," ad
miration and respect for the fairness,
integrity and ability which always ac
companied and surrounded the conduct

J. H. Bird during the five years that he
was judge of this judicial district and
also the earnest friendship which he won
from among us bjhia uniform kindness
and courtesy while practicing as an at
torney at the bar of this court and we do
hereby commemorate his public and
private virtues which made him loved

energy of character raised him to a lead
ing position as a citizen, lawver and
judge.-
Be it further resolved that we tender
to the aged mother and to the brothers
and sisters of the deceased our sympathy
and express to them our deep sorfow
and regret at the irreparable loss which
they, far more than any of us have suf
fered by his death, and the chairman of
this meeting is hereby requested to pre
sent a copy of these proceedings to the
circuit court of the state of Oregon for
the seventh judicial district holding
terms in Wasco countv, with the request
that they be spread upon therecords of
said court and forever, preserved as a
memorial of the. honor and respect in
which said J. H. Bird was held by his
brother attorneys at the bar of this
court. . Lair Him.,

Authority to Build a Portage Road at
t'elilo.
Editor " Chronicle: Permit ..the.
through the columns of your paper, to
call attention to sub-division 1 of sec. 1
of the Portage Railway act, which reads
as follows, to wit : -
1. To build, construct, run, equip,
operate and maintain a portage railway
between the highest and lowest points of
the navigable waters of the .Columbia
river at the Cascades, in Oregon, and
also between the highest and lowest
points of the navigable waters-of said
river between The Dalles and Celilo, in
Oregon, as in their judgment shall be
sufficient to meet the demands of trans
portation at those points ; vroviiled, that
said board shall have .the right to deter
mine which railway shall be first built.
Section 8 of said act provides for the
"appropriation of $60,000 for the uses and
purposes aforesaid. It will be- seen from
the foregoing that there was no necessity
for the Raley. bill, and it only remains
for future legislation, upon recomenda
tion of the Board of Portage commission
ers, or otherwise, to make appropriations
for the completion of both roads.

Card of Thank.
The family of the late Judge Bird desire
the Chkonicle to return thanks through
its columns for the kindness received at
the hands of the good people of The
Dalles in connection with the funeral of
the deceased. The many kindnesses
shown were highly appreciated and will
be long remembered by the surviving
relatives of Judge Bird.

a worthy example of Pythian virtues,
and, while living, we loved and respected
him, and now, being dead, we will ever
keep fresh and green the remembrance
of his many excellencies of character ;
that though he lies silent in the tomb,
the evening of his chivalric life will
always have a stimulus upon our lifeand
actions, aiming to imitate his integrity
of purpose, honesty in dealings, and char

The salmon catch is of too limited a

WOOL SITUATION.
The wool dead lock which has pre
vailed between the sellers ami buyers
bus not materially changed since the re
jort of a week ago. The holders seem
immovable in their ideas and the buyers
are equally as steadfast in their opinions.
A gentleman who seems to comprehend
the situation is of the opinion the back- i
Ixuie will be broken in a few days as ,
there are several new buyers in the field
who are not influenced by a few inside
sharpers who are endeavoring to control i
jured. Mrs. Cresson charges that her
husband, an assistant engineer of the
Omaha railway, is too fond of the society
of .Miss Gibson, and sought to murder
the latter on that account: Mrs. Cresson
was injured in a cable car accident six
months ago, and has been quite ill most
of the time since.

The unsatisfactory condition of the wool

disposition of wool growers throughout
the wool districts, to hold for better
prices has hud a demoralizing effect on
trade in local centers, ahd concessions
