THE DALLES. - OREGON FRIDAY, - OCTOBER 16, 1891. Mr. Whealand went down to Portland this morning. H. E; and J. W. Moore, of Nanaenc, are at the Omatill house. - The near street mains are beginning to arrive on the Regulator. Mr. James F. Thompson in alnt to move with hia family to Colfax. M. V. Chase, of Augusta, Maine, an old friend of Colonel Lang, is in the city. Mr. Linos Hubbard returned last Bight from a risit to the Portland ex po ll tion. . Jacob Craft has rented his ranch near Kansene and will move into town to lire daring the coming winter. Mrs. John Miter and the Misses Ora and Paulina Reno of Mosier have gone en a visit to friends in Linn county. Mrs. A. Heppner has let the contract for the bnilding of a neat dwelling house eu her lot at the east end of fifth street. Mrs. A. S. Macallister and her mother . Mrs. Paasley left last night to join Sir Macallister at Portland where they in tend to remain during the coming winter. . Mr. Davis the stage man tells us he met fifty-two wagons last Saturday while coming in from Dufur to The Dalles. They were all on their way homo" after delivering wheat in this city Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Dufur, of Dnfnr, will leave tonight for their former home in Ashland, Wisconsin, where they may possibly remain. We regret to loso them and hope they may yet return and and spend the 1 remainder of their days among their .numerous friends in Wasco county. ' EtU, the fourteen-year-old son of H. Conklin, who lives somewhere on the Deschutes river in this county, had a horse which he was riding, last Satur day, fall with- him and break the boy's left arm above be elbow. His father brought him to town yesterday morning and' placed him under the care of Dr. The band boys will not soon forget the generosity of Mr. Frank, the, milkman from over the river, who generously bought three tickets for the ball tonight, Mr. Frank's milk will taste all the bet- ter for it and if any body, in the future. vver hints that he extracts any of the lacteal fluid from the pump he had better not do it in the presence of a ' Dalles band boy. 'A man named Benjamin S. Yseger, hot himself in East Portland last Wed nesdsy night. Yseger is a German about 60 years of age. He deliberately placed ' the muzzle of a rusty 44-caliber British bull-dog pistol in his mouth and fired it off. He died immediately. is said to have been at one time an extensive contractor in Austin, Texas. It is sup posed that his mental depression was iue to the recent death of his wife. A bad accident occurred a few days ago on the grade leading from Wamic to Tygh Valley. .A Grass Valley four-horse team, heavily laden with lumber from . Lake '& Woodcock's mill, was-coming down the hill when something occurred that caused it to fall off the grade. The wagon was smashed to pieces and one of the horses seriously injured. Tha wreck was strewn on the hillside when our in ' formant passed yesterday but the name " of the owner of the team was not learned Nearly a hundred passengers left this morninz on the Regulator for Portland and way stations. About fifty of them are from Sherman county, who have gone down to visit ' the exposition They are all enthusiastic supporters of the new boat and one of them was heard to say, "If any of our crowd goes down to Portland by any other way wa won't know him when he gets there." Our only regret is that these same Sherman ; county folks have not a portage road of their own. We earnestly hope, how ever, that this state of affairs won'CMast long. Last night Joe Knebel and his brother in-law William Moreton, who both re side on Mill creek had some . dispute . about a dollar which Moreton charged Knebel with owing him, in Lemke's : saloon in this city, when Moreton tabbed Knebel with a pocket, knife, making dangerous wound in the region f the heart. Moreton was arrested and Knebel was .taken : to . the Columbia - hotel where he now lies under, the care f-Dr. Hollister. Moreton,; who '.Is a : yoeng man of apparently twenty-, years of age, was brought N before Justice -, Schuts this forenoon, who committed hint without bail to await tha result of KaebePs injury, Moreton was raised la this city and he fa generally regarded mb quiet inoffensive boy. i .r in- mil niiriinur mi nil nil ' I I ill Milium I i ii ""''l ' """" iiniiiai ii i I- n.

The latest game for money making ap peared on the etreets of Weston on tion, and as there are nine days yet re maining of the exposition and the num ber of visitors in attendance will in crease from tho present until the close, the exhibit from Wasco county should bo kept in good condition. Much of the fruit has to be thrown away daily be cause of decay. Will you please urge your readers and ask the good ladies of The Dalles and vicinity, to help mo keep up the good name of Wasco connty by urging all who have choice fruit to send in some ou. Monday and Tuesday next sure, also to sed in Eome choice boquets for the Wasco county table and one for the superintendent's office. The citizens they ' ortiln appreciate this effort I I have worked for the past two months as well as I knew how, to further the in Thoy Slant lie Supported. A writer in the Goldendalc Sentinel, who signs himself "Farmer" adminis ters a stinging rebuke to some grangers and members of the alliance of Klickitat county who last year made so much ado about the high rates charged by the Union Pacific company, "crying for boats on the river and promising would do this and that if only boats wero put on," and yet haul their grain to Grants, where it must be transferred to the company they they formerly so much detested. The , . , . . . i present and hist effort to show up and merchants of Klickitat county to(' . To Tha Dalle. Eddie Howell, the clever little twirler nd Baker City favorite, takes his de parture by this morning's train for The Dalles where he has secured s position in the Union Pacific baggage department, ico R. E. Dwyer, resigned, who has se cured ft position in the same department At Portland. "Little Eddie," as he is generally called, will be missed by his Region of friends in this city, who will rtfret to learn of his departure. The young man carries with him the best wishes of ft host of warm friends and that happiness and prosperity will at tend him ia their sincere wish. An ef fort will be made to again secure his ser vices next year. even sacrifice something, if necessary, so as to maintain tho new line of boats, lest they should, for lack of support, be compelled to withdraw and thns leave the people again nt the mercy of the railroad company. This is exactly the way to look at the matter. The boats must be supported at all costs, a hey were built for the peoples' benefit end the people mus( maintain. Every man who- buys a pound of sugar or a sack of salt in The Dalles today saves money through the fact that the Regulator is in existence. In point of fact the boat is receiving very nattering encourage ment. She has had more freight than could be transferred at the portage by tho little government engine that the management of the portage could hardly ever get when they wanted it, and when thev did have the use of it would pull next to nothing. The patrons of the new line have bourne this inconvenience with considerable patience and it is hoped that all further inconvenience and delay will be ended by next Mon day by the furthest. .A Falsa Report Contradicted. - The incalculable injury that an irre sponsible and vicious newspaper can do to its oifn town is well illustrated by a letter that we saw today which was sent from a large San Francisco firm of un derwriters to an agent in this city. The letter says: "We understand that a proposition to bond your city for a rea sonable amount of money for the express purpose of improving your water system was voted down. -' The sequel is the loss of more than ten times the amount of money that the enterprising citizens asked for." So far as the people of The r.tlles are concerned this statement needs no contradiction, but for outsiders it may be said that it is utterly false. The city has been bonded for $125,000 to put in a complete gravity system that will give a pressure on the mains in the business part of the city of a hundred pounds to the square inch. The work llibCI i, new LUUilbi auu cciciiaii i since this exposition has opened. Please ask your good citizens to support my some of your resources. This is the best med ium of advertising your section that has been offered and I hope it will be im proved, I am now an Oregonian no longer a "touriet," and I hope to see the editors of all The Dalles newspapers here before. the close of this the best ex position ever held in Portland. I would urge a large attendance of citizens at the exposition from yourcity and county the coming week, and thus compliment tho successful management of Portland's bist exposition and Superintendent R. W. Mitchell. Wasco's true friend. G. W. Ingai.t.8. A movement is on foot in Pendleton for the purpose of suppressing "gambling and other vices." Several arrests have been made. It is said that over a hun dred citizens are backing the movement. Mr. Chaa. S. Miller, owner of the Monumental mill, has perfected all ar rangements for the starting of tho plant about November first and will conduct it as u custom mill, buying all ores de livered. Grants and Biggs stations present a busy appearance just now handling and dispatching the immense crop of wheat raised in Sherman county this season, fully demonstrating the necessity of a railroad. Wasco Aic. The running expenses of tho state I portage railway on the Columbia below The Dalles will be about $1000 a month. Ihe receipts will average about S180O a is now nearly finished and when com pleted, we will have as good a water system for fire protection and as good a quality of water and a supply as abund ant as can be found in any city of the same size in the state of Oregon. A Miserably Bad Road. Complaints are constantly reaching this office from farmers south of The Dalles, about the condition of the road leading to this city. As the last word of the above sentence was written our old friend Tom Ryan entered our sanc tum with his fase covered with blood and wounds, and swelled almost beyond recognition. He had fallen from his wagon while coming into town with a load of grain. It is the same old story. One wheel tried to explore the fathom less depths of one of the innumerable chuck holes and Tom fell off. It's a wonder the old man didn't , break his neck. A short time ago Henry Simons of Eight-Mille had ft load of hay capsize from the same cause. He lived to tell j the Chboxicxe man but his salvation was a miracle. It appears somebody must first slaughter himself on the altar of his county before the necessary re pairs will be made. Who will be the victim? Give Cs a Bard One. Thet Timee-Mountaineer asks: "If it cost f 60,000, to build five-eigths of a mile of a portage railway, what wonld it cost -to build a road eighteen and three-fourths miles long?" Thafseasy. Let us see. Five-eigths will go into 60,000 about thirty times, therefore it would cost abont thirty times as much, (because there would have to be thirty crews of men to build it, with thirty times the present number of superin tendents and clerks, and thirty locomo tives, and thirty times sixteen cars, and thirty round houses, and thirty switches nt each end and thirty inclines at each end and thirty wharf boats at each end, and thirty times three acres of land and thirty office buildings and thirty shops and thirty water systems and thirty superintendents' houses and thirty car sheds and thirty blank fools like the editor of ' the Timet-Mounlaineer to lie about the work.

Ws ere reliably informed that the Baker will make her last trip from The Dalles to the Cascades, that is, at least for the present. Sinee the Regulator started the Baker has been running at ft beavy loss to the company and it has been deemed best to let the Regulator fcave the trade, rather than reduce rates o ft to drive the Regulator off the river. This action of the Union Pacific Com pany, it it does make them friends, will 4o more than anything else. they could have done to aoften the asperitjM of Ml err enemies. One Bullet In the Right Place. The Milton Eagle gives some interest ing particulars of the attempted mur der and suicide committed a few days ago by Fred Lorn, who lives about seven miles east of Milton. Lorn had been in Walla Walla on a spree for sev eral days, and coming home in a drunken condition, engaged in a quarrel with his wife and mother-in-law which resulted in his drawing a pistol and firing ono shot at them which, however, did not take effect. The women fled into a bedroom but the infuriated man broke in the door and Again fired four I shots, all of which took effect, one in the shoulder of hia mother-in-law and the others in Mrs. Lorn's breast. Sup posing he had killed the women Lorn went to another room, deliberately un dressed and went to bed. He then placed the muzzle of the pistol in his mouth and fired. As the shot did not prove fatal, Lorn got out of bed ana held his mouth over a chamber while the blood flowed out of it. When a deputy sheriff arrived from Walla Walla Lorn was found in bed, complaining, as the Eagle naively puts itj of a very sore head. All three were taken to Walla Walla and placed in the Sister's hos pital. The doctors say that none of the wounds are necessarily fatal,' bnt the bullet is still in Lorn's head, the very spot, in all the world, where it ought to be. - In Kansas mile after mile of side track is filled with cars loaded with wheat awaiting a chance to, get into the mar kets' This fact seems to quiet the prat ing of those fellows who have- been tell ing about the mortgages which these farmers couldn't pay. The Kansas papers seem to be having a picnic over these reports. - It has gone thus far up to date: When alliance orators talk about Kansas starving to death, every individ ual potato winks its eye.

Learenworlh Times, Quite a Family. The great state of Missouri keeps up its reputation as a prolific" country, par? ticnlarly in the matter of children. A laay passenger lrom Missouri, on a west-bound train which passed through Pendleton the other day, had with her a family of eight children, the two oldest seven-year-old twins ; the next triplets, aged three and one-half years, and the last a baby one year old. The sight would have done an old MiFsourian's rheart good, and created intense Interest along the route.

There is within the bounds of the original county of Sherman sixtv-five persons who pay taxes on personal and real estate to- the amount of $1000 and over. The amount on which taxes are paid is about $440,455; of this amount 362,391 is paid north of the base line di viding the county. Next week we will give a list of the largest taxpayers in the county. Wasco Kews. ' Miss Grace Isaacs, "of Walla Walla, an estimable young lady, who was one of the unfortunate victims of the fearful railroad disaster at Lake Labish, near Salem, is now stopping at the home of her grandparents," Colonel Fulton and wife, at Biggs' station, Sherman county. Miss Isaacs is still in a precarious con dition of health and is confined to her room a good portion of her time. The principal mines that will contrib ute ores to the mill at the start will be the La Bellevue and Buffalo, the latter within two miles and the former six miles of the mill. Later on the mines of Greenhorn will send their ores. Mr. Miller is assured of a sufficient quantity of ore to supply the mill and this being the case operations will be continued without any difficulty. Baker City Democrat. George Enps, the old man recently committed to the asylum from Grant county, as born in Portugal, and com ing to America he acquired, by hard work and frugal living, a fortune,. which, through improper bnsiness management and the possession of too many friends, disappeared and he was left penniless and friendless, with an enfeebled mind and no home but the one he has just found in the asylum. Another attempt is being made to en list Umatilla Indians in the service of Uncle Sam. The first trial some time ago resulted in a complete failure. .The Indians said they did not want to leave their homes and preferred peace to war. It is understood that this time also, the proposition to enlist does not meet with favor among the Indians, Captain Lee, Lieutenant Hardman, and a small body of troopers from Fort Walla Walla are at the agency for that purpose. The first railroad in Clatsop county was sold last week by J. C. Trulfinger to Fitzgerald & Morrison, the Wisconsin lumbermen who have been loggipg on Deep river. The iron and rolling stock will be moved from its present location ou the Walluski to Deep river, and then wantiakum county can boast ot a rail road. Mr. Trullinger has brought out . a great many million feet of logs with the road, but the supply in that vicinity is about exhausted. ! Mr. and Mrs. Hitchcock, who formerly kept a stage station on the line between Baker City and Prineville, and were on their way to Rockford, Wash., from Vancouver, have met with a sad be reavement. Mrs. Hitchcock's illness necessitated stopping over at Pendleton. There, Friday, she became the mother r-f twin babies, both -ot which have since died. The death of the infanta is sup posed to be the result of an accident to Mrs. Hitchcock at Vancouver, caused by a sidwalk torn up for street work, -Grant Thompson arrived in Eugene just after dark one night last week from east of the Cascades with a herd of horses, As be reaphed the railroad crossing a freight train; was coming in. j The horses became unmanageable on j hearing the approaching train and got on the trnck at the crossing, when the train struck them and killed five out right and seriously injured another. Mr. Thompson says it happened too quick to know how it was done, The horses were valuable ones and it is a se rious loss to their owner. John W. Hellenbrand, of Oretown, Tillamook oounty, reports having seen in the Nestucca valley millions of tho worms that are this season playing such havoo with the timber in the Nehalem country. The road in. the valley was full of these worms and they seemed to be drawing their slow lengths along eastwardly. About twenty miles this side of the valley, in the mountains, ; t, , 1 L ' ill.- . r , i ' 1 worms, advanced in that elevation another stage ia their development. j xne insects m tne mountains were winged. During the fire at Condon last week two Indians confined in the county jail pending removal to the penitentiary to servo a sentence of one year for horse stealing, were released and rendered .valuable service in extinguishing the flames. As a reward for their services a numerously-signed petition has been sent to the Monday, says the Leader. A well dressed, slick-fingered man sold rolls of paper, two for f 1, in some of which were greenbacks of denominations of $1, $2 and $5. Of course the percentage was in favor of the man who conducted the arrangement, and this was discovered to the financ'al depression of- quite a num ber of suckers, particularly one old gen tleman, who; the reporter was informed, expended $30 in a vain endeavor to beat the swindler at his own game. The Indian chiefs, Peo, Teneouitz, With-out-a-shirt, Liberty and the rest, got back this morning from Portland, says the Pendleton East Oregonian. They were the sensation of the hour at the exposition, where they appeared in savage finery and gave a war dance, which interested the large crowd present, but was a tame affair compared with the scenes on the reservation during the In dian celebration. Agent Crawford, it is said, had a hard time herding - his charges together and keeping them sober. Some of them were always on the alert to indulge their inclination to get drunk whenever they could elude the agent and obtain liquor." Robert Porter insists that the people of the west are quite contented with his census. Not contented, Mr. Porter, but resigned to it. They're like the Dutch man's wife. Probably you have heard of her. When the minister learned that she was dead, he asked if she was re signed to her fate. "Resigned?" an swered the weeping widower, "Mein Cot ! she haf to be."
