is mistaken. There is not enough
lightning in the whole Inland Empire to

Exhibits for the district fair have
come in so slowly and, as regards some,
so late, that we have judged it best to
defer a full write up of them till near
the close of the fair. Our next weeks is
sue will contain a full report.

The Regulator is getting there. Mon
day she left the Cascades fifteen min
utes later than the Baker: towed a
scow five miles up stream, made nine
landings while the Baker made two, and
.arrived in The Dalles fully ten minutes
before the Baker. The Regulator can go
when she wants to.
The fair commenced Tuesday with
one of the most miserable days imagina
ble to an East Oregonian. The wind
blew almost a hurricane, filling the eyes
and ears with blinding dust. Today, on
" the other hand, is absolutely perfect.
It is sufficiently cool to be bracing and
sufficiently warm to be pleasant.
"superintendent Troy t-uelly is now
going over the county on his semi-annual
visit of the public schools. He left

at Wamic where he would be pleased to
see all the teachers who can conven

President Varney came down, yester
day, like a thousand of brick on a little
shell geme that some lniterant beat had
started within the fair ground. The
;beat claimed he had the authority of
the recorder to run the game, but Mr.
Varney informed him that no authority
-outside heaven would entitle him to run
Oris game there. And it didn't.
Master Clyde W. Riddell, the twelve-vear-old
son of Mr. George Riddell of
'Columbia precinct, came nearly losing
iiis life Tuesday. He was riding swiftly
down hill, after cattle, when bis horse
stumbled and threw him violently on a
rock, bruising him up considerably.
Fortunately no bones were broken but
it will be sometime before he will have
full use of his limbs.
While there is not the least doubt that
The Dalles will -rebuild in due time as
handsomely as before, the fact remains
that it will require many years of time
to replace the magnificent trees which
were stripped of their foliage and had
.their shapely trunks blackened by the
great fire. At the time the. giant pop
lars surrounding the old homestead of
Mrs. Laughlin were planted the streets
in that locality ran with the waste water
from the first reservoir, as abundantly
as do now the streets of Salt Lake City.
This gave an impetus to tree-planting,
which was not possible later hy reason

Alex. McLeod of Kingsley came into
town last evening. He has just finished
threshing, and he reports that the crops
on Tygh Ridge are, as a whole, turning
out better than was expected. His
wheat averaged fifteen bushels, but it
was all spring plowing and twenty acres
was volunteer. He had a small field of
barley that went sixtv bushels to the
acre. His oats were poor which is rather
contrary to the rule. Mr. McLeod
threshed 2360 bushels all told.
The Regulator did not arrive at her
landing last night till nearly nine o'clock.
The delay was caused by the difficulty
in transferring freight at the lower land
ing. The Dalles City brought up to the
Cascades some 60 tons of freight, part of
which had to be left at the Cascades.
ihe work of hmshing the western in
cline is being pushed rapidly and we are
assured that in a few davs more the
portage will be able to handle any reas
onable amount of freight that may come
to it.
Dr. Vanderpool,of Dufur, informs us
of a sad accident which happened to
Bruce Driver of Wamic. Mr. Driver", in
company with his brothers, was running
a thresher and was at work at Mr. Ron
deau's, on Tygh Ridge, yesterday, and
in attending to the work Mr. Driver
went behind one of his horses when the
horse commenced kicking and and kept
it up till he was nearly killed. He had
several ribs and an arm broken besides
being fearfully lacerated otherwise. The
doctor thinks if his internal injuries are
not too great he may get over it but it
will be some time yet.

the one round which not the least inter
est centered was the Gentleman's Road

ing complaints that only a very
few have received any benefit from the
relief fund and that the practical man-
j agement and distribution of the fund
j has been placed in the hands of a num
ber of young ladies, appointed as a sub
committee, who, notwithstanding that
they belong to our best families and are
excellent persons every way, are neces
sarily lacking in the judgment and ex
perience necessary for such work. Have
you any objection to give the readers of
the Chbonicle your opinion on the mat
ter." "I should be sorry" said the
Mayor, "that any words of mine would
be construed to reflect in any way on the
sub-committee ot voung ladies. Wi
have no better young ladies in this city
There can be no question as to their zeal
and earnestness and desire to do right
but I have felt, in common with many
other citizens, that the relief committee
made a grave mistake when the ladies
delegated the difficult work of seeking
out the really needy and relieving them
to vouneer hands. It was to avoid this
mistake that, in selecting the committee
I appointed only ladies of mature years
and extensive experience and acquaint
ance and I personallv regret verv much
that these ladies have seen fit to appoin
this sub-committee. In my opinion
would have been much better, m case
any of them found it impossible to giv
the necessary time or attention to the
business, to have resigned so that an
other person, eqnallv suitable, might
have been appointed to fill her place.'

Moiltr Notes.
Mosier, Or., Sept. 23
Editor of the Chonicle:
We had quite a refreshing shower of
rain here last Friday and Saturday.
The Mosier post-office has been moved
over into the depot, with Mr. Powers as
assistant post-master.
Miss Kate Davenport left last Thurs
day for Portland where she expects to at
tend school.
Mr. Robert Hnsbauds and friend of
Hood River,, spent a few days of last
week at the residence of Mr. Husbands
of this place.
Mrs. A. A. Marsh and son Willie left
Saturday for Viento where Mrs. Marsh's
father, Mr. McClure, has his summer
dairy.
Some of the Mosierites seem to be en
joyins themselves, as there jvere two
dances last Saturday night. One was
given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Mo
sier. We understand 'the3 intend to
leave Mosier.
Miss Spink spent last Saturday and
Sunday at her home in The Dalles.
Mr. Troy Shelly, the county school
superintendent, passed through Mosier
last Tuesday and visited our school.
The Regulator has landed at Hus
band's landing nearly every day since it
started to run. This speaks well for
Mosier. M. G.
A Citizen's Views.
The Dalles, Sept. 21, 1801
Editor Chronicle:
Would it not be a good plan for those
who intend building at all to try to put
up good buildings that will be an honor.
not a disgrace to the town. . Now the
mayor of our city has not (although i
most excellent man, and an honest con
scientious one, too) set a very good
example to the citizens of The Dalles by
building a wooden building. He had
plenty of the wherewithal to have put
up a substantial brick building and
should have done so to encourage others
as to the future of this town. Now, you
builders, you who intend remaining, who
intend to start np in business, see to it
that you have better buildings than ever
before : that is what speaks well for a
town. Don't put up shanties that will
not take five minutes to burn down
Let those who intend buildingresidences
put up good buildings better than you
had before and help the town on its
feet again. Don't give it a kick by put
ting up shanties. This is a good place
for a town, a good place to live, and with
the proper spirit of its citizens will in
the near future be a city of no small
merit. Oliver Twist.
The Kaces.
The first race Tuesday at the fair
grounds was a half mile running saddle
horse dash. There were four entries,
Dandy, Lizzie Swift, Dolly Varden and
Butterfly. After a fair start the horses
came in in the following order: Butter
fly, first ; Lizzie Swift, second ; Dandy,
third: Dolly Varden; distanced. Time
55 seconds.
Race No. 2 was a quarter mile. There
were three entries, crank Hastings,
Mamie S. and Herald. Herald got the
pole. The race was won by Frank Hast
ings, Mamie S. taking second place.
Time 25 seconds.
A match race for $100 aside was run
between Joe Trippier's Pay Day and
Andy Swift's Ridley, one-half mile,
catch weights. The race was won by
Pay Day ; time, 52 seconds.
The last race was Mile heats, best
three in five and was contested for by
Frank Button's Bell Rooney and J. W.
Tilden's Banker. Bejl Rooney won first
and second heat ; Banker was distanced.
This closed the races for the dav.
A Complaint.
The Dalles, Sept. 21, 1891
Editor Chronicle:
A good many have asked me this
question : "What is the relief committee
going to do with all the money which
has been sent for the relief of those who
were burned out in the late fire? I am
one of those whose all went up in the
flames and the committee haven't asked
me whether I needed anything or not?"
And the query puzzled me, for, if the
committee intend doing -what is right,
they will certainly find out all who suf
fered by the conflagration and help
them not relieve just a very few and.
take the remaining dollars and use them
for some other purpose or let them lie idle
If ever help was needed it is now not
next winter when each has purchased
everything himself and gone in debt for
everything rather than freeze or starve
to death. What is being done with all
the provisions, wood and money that has
been kindly donated by sister cities for
the relief of all those who suffered by
the fire of the 2d inst? I hope some one
will look into the matter and see that
the donations are divided fairly.

Various Sources.
A healthy young man who takes wine
or any other intoxicating drink, knows
whether he has taken into his system a
friend or a foe. He knows that it in
creases, not quenches, thirst; that it
raises his spirits for a short time and
depresses them for hours that follow;
that it flashes excites disturbs and in
jures him. Nothing has been more cer
tainly demonstrated than that the use of
alcoholic drinks in our keen, exciting
climate is a mistake. This is a simple
fact. Use the best food. As to intoxi
cating drinks, there is only one safe rule
and that is to abstain.
A Very Itol.l Thief.
Wednesday afternoon a tramp who
possessed the audacity of a prize fighter
and the cheek of a political aspirant, and
having no fear of the law, doctors or any
other man before him, burglarized the
house of our fellow-townsman Mr.
Whann, the business manager of Staver
& Walker, and succeeded in making a
haul that would or ought to have satis
fied u first-class thief. Upon taking ac
count of stock, he had stolen about $250
worth of jewelry, some $6 in cash, a re-
olver and Mr. Whann's best articles of
raiment. Lpon the discovery of the
theft, the officials were notified and a
search for the thief was instituted, and
after a most dilligent search, he was dis
covered a short distance above town in a
clump of bushes near the railroad track,
arrested and brought before Justice
Knowles. It being late in the evening
His Honor relegated him to the tender
mercies of Marshal McLachlan, who fur
nished him with first-class accommoda
tions in our city jail. During the even-
rig while the marshal was gone to pro
ide a few delicacies such as angel cake
and shrimps for the aforesaid tramp's
fastidious taste, he repaid his kindness
bv endeavoring to break laii. tie had
in some manner secured a large piece of
broken bottle, and wrapping a c'otu
around it, was discovered in trying to
sever some of he bars before his win
dow. He was soon placed in a position
here he was perfectly safe. Thursday
morning he again appeared before Jus
tice Knowles. who bound him over m
the sum of 1,000 to appear before the
grand jury. Grand Ronde Chronicle.
A lay of Reckoning; Conilug.
Dr. Talmage, in an address to saloon
keepers, closes with this strong para
graph :
"I tell you plainly that you will meet
poor customers one day when there will
be no counter between 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 bitter
ness in your cup. Tney will show you
their wounds, and- say, 'You made
them ;' and point to their unquenchable
thirst and say, 'You kindled it;' and
rattle their chain, and say, ,You forged
it.' Then their united groans will smite
your ear; and with the hands out of
which you once picked the sixpences
and the dimes, they will push you off
the verge of the great precipice; while
rolling up from beneate, and breaking
among the craps of death, will thunder,
'Woe to him that giveth his neighbor
drink!"
This is a dark picture of a terrible
scene, but no darker than the reality
will be.

EASTERN OREGON WEATHER.
Cooler weather has prevailed, with !
light winds and elouds. On the more j
elevated portions light frosts have oc
curred. CROPS.
Wheat, oats, barley and rye have all
been cut and threshing is in progress es
pecially in the counties east of and
south of the Blue mountains. Thresh
ing is practically over in Umatilla
county. In Morrow county there were
not enough sacks to hold the wheat and
more have been ordered. In other
counties the supply of sacks was about
used up, showing the grain to have
yielded so much more than was ex
pected. The yield of cereals is unusu
ally great in all interior counties. Pre
parations are being made for preparing
the ground for seed, summer fallow is
being worked, and many sections ex
pect to have as large or larger acreage
next year, than they had this.

AN IRRIGATING SCHEME.
This Interesting story is told of Horace
Greely: He was presiding at a dinner
given by the press, in laws, at Del-
monico's in honor of Charles Dickens,
and "while Dickens partook freely of
the wines , Greeley did not turn his
glasses down, but thrust them out of his
way, with a single exception, and in
that placed a beautiful red rose that had
been furnished for his boutonniere, and
during the dinner lifted the glass to his
uose as often as others raised glasses to
their mouths, and the fragrance of the
rose was all the stimulant he needed."
It was a characteristic incident, and the
lesson of it is impressive even yet.
Miss Sallie Holly, a Virginian, believ
ing that self-help is the only solution of
the negro problem," is establishing

Unnecessary Sufferings.
l here is little doubt but that many
persons suffer for years with ailments
that could easily be cured by the use of
some simple remedy. The following in

side the greater part of the time for
three years, until cured bv Chamber

Ellensburg, Sept. 23. Notice of elec

of the middle irrigation district, propos
ing voting to bond the district for $200,

be asked. One of the most reliable con
trading firms in the state has a repre
sentative here who offers to take the
bonds at par for building the ditch
is unaersiooa that other similar propo
sitions will be made. In the present
condition of business it is expected that
some low bids will be received. This
ditch will be fifty miles long, twelve feet
wide at the bottom and eighteen feet
the top, with water four feet deep.
will bring under cultivation about 40,000
additional acres of land and will be of
great benefit to the people of Ellensburg

the bonds, and the certainty that the
ditch will be built causes a revival in the
spirits of the people, and they think the

The present weak prices for wheat, in
view of conditions abroad, are said te be
due to American dealers having gotten
into the habit of putting down their own
prices whenever "lower cables" are re
ported. As a wise observer says : "We
shall hold to the theory that English
markets have broken because of the
weakness on this side. American deal
ers have been accustomed for years to
looking abroad for quotations on which
to base their own, and cannot grow into
the idea that America controls prices.'

written this sensible little paragraph on
domestic felicity : "A man seldom pros

About the boldest theft on record is
that of a Kansas man who employed a
steam threshing outfit, men and wagons,
and removed a crop of wheat from a
farm, sold it and walked off with the
money about $1000 in his pocket
without anybody suspecting that he
was not the rightfnl owner of the wheat,
and not satisfied with stealing the wheat
he left without paying the men who had
helped him handle it.
An Old Adage.
There is an old adage : "What every
body says must be true." Henry Cook,

relief it gives." There is nothing like it
to loosen and relieve a severe cold. For
