THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1892. The Weekly Ctooniele. THI DALIES, - - - - - OKKGOX FRIDAY;' : - - FEBRUARY 5, 1892. LOCAL AND PERSONAL. The Chiliaa war cloud has busted. Alex. Mcintosh bi More- was in the city Monday. . ' A. A. Urqaahart has been appointed city assessor. MT. A. Gerow, county assessor of Crook county, died on the 27 inst. John M. Davis and wife of Bake Oven were at the Umatilla house Monday. William H. Sharp is going to build a fine house on his ranch on Five Mile creek. ' . Tom Driver of Wamicwho came into town Sunday left for home Monday afternoon. William Nelson in the Hillsboro In dependenl claims that planks laid upon a road without stringers will last twenty years. i It is announced that Mr. Ed. Martin has been tendered the position of deputy county clerk, vice George P. Morgan, resigned. . 1 The machinery and stock of the North Dalles shoe factory was sold Friday morn ing to satisfy a judgment held against it by Hugh Glenn of this city. Mr. Glenn bought it in for the sum of $3,350. John L. Ayer, "the kid boss of Ore gon," was ousted from the presidency of the young men's republican clubs of Oregon, at the convention held in Port land Thursday. The climate of Oregon has been rather hard on political bosses lately. Ths law requiring certain expendi tures of the county court to be published in the leading paper of each county has had one good effect at least. It has set the taxpayers to scanning the official list as never before, to see what has been done with their money. F. Devenport, W. Eccles and Charles Early, of Hood River, were in the city this week giving testimony in the case of certain owners of property on Phelps creek, near Hood River, against the Ore gon Lumber company, involving the question of water rights on that creek. Only six men are now at work on the Cascades locks, and these are employed in protecting the plant. A good sum of money yet remains from the last ap propriation, which will be sufficient to carry on the work until the river and harbor bill is passed by the present con gress, K any bill is passed, and if Oregon gets any appropriationu from the 5-cent congress. There is a vast amount of land in Sherman county that is yet uncultivated. Not only in the extreme southern part but iu various parts of the entire county. And when this all once gets under culti vation twice the amount of wheat will be produced to what is now being raised. What Sherman county needs is more farmers. We have some good farmers in our county but we want more of them. Wasco Newe. Newspapers so deficient in circulation are to be unable to successfully compete under the county publication law, cry sour era pes. but it is a tact that never before in the history of the state have the countv newspapers so filled their columns with the details of county gov- ernment. One of these publishers in Marion county, finding he could not compete, at once informed the court that it would be an outrage to pay more than one cent per square. That is the Tony Noltner style of doing things. Salem Journal. This week some of the Crook county sheep raisers who shipped their wool to Boston last season got the returns from their sales.- After paying the expenses of freight, insurance and storage the wool netted them from 8&c to 13c a pound. The same wool would have sold here last summer at from 14c to 16c a pound. Some ' seasons wool growers have made money by shipping their wool east) but as a rule they have found it most profitabls to sell their wool here or at The Dalles. Ochoco Review. Mrs. George Mahn of Mill Creek met with an accident Friday afternoon by which one of her arms was broken in three places. She and her husband had just returned from town. After enter ing their own enclosure -Mr. Mahn stopped to' put up the bars when the horses started suddenly and Mrs. Mahn was thrown violently against the ground. Dr. O. C. HoIIister went out and re- 1 .9.1 . . a . jucea ine tracture ana the lady is resting as comfortable as could be ex pected. ' . A cowardly attempt was made last Friday night to blow up the residence of L. C. Perry, the marshal of Prineville. A piece of pump pipe was loaded heavily with powder and placed near the bouse, where it exploded.. The force of the ex plosion burst the pipe and drove parts of it through the rustic and ceihncr. ada the bomb been nlaced ander the to p- bie ce iie ie is not known but if discovered it is be lieved he would get a short shrift. . For something interesting see the advertisement of Snipes A Kinersly in another column. Married, in Seattle January 27th, Miss Lelia Basche Juker of this .city, to Mr. Thurston Daniels of Vancouver. Some uneodlv miscreant threw out poison in the neighborhood of Fulton street and in consequence Curg Cates' handsome Coach dog ''Dick" and three members of the "Thomas Cat" family have bit the dust. The trouble with this kind of promiscuous slaughter is that the innocent suffer equally with the guilty. . The machinery of the North Dalles shoe factory is being removed to this side of the river and stored in the Grant building, corner of first and Washington streets. Drays were at work all day Sunday and it will require all Monday and Tuesday to remove the whole. Just what may be done with it the future alone can tell but a number of citizens are figuring on starting a fac tory on this side of the river. The city may never have such a chance again. A crowded house greeted Rev. A. C. Spencer Sunday night in the Court house and possibly as many as thirty or forty persons turned away for lack of seats. Mr. Spencer's subject was, "The alleged mistakes of the Bible" taking as his text John 20-27. "Blessed are they that have not seen and yet have believed The sermon was an earnest appeal to his audience to prove the truths of Christi anity on the lines laid down by the great Teacher when he said "If any man do my will he shall know of the doctrine whether it is of God or whether I speak of myself." '" Petitions are out for a new grade up Tygh Hill. New petitions have been rendered necessary because the time for opening the road under the last petition and survey has elapsed and the work will all have to be done over again. The county judge assures the Chronicle that at the next meeting of the court on March 10th an appropriation of not less than $1000 will be made for this road and the Chronicle hopes that the court may see its way before long to give more. But a thousand dollars are prom ised and will be forthcoming just as soon as the preliminary steps are taken The Chronicle is most anxious that no false step may be taken in this matter, It is of immense importance that the proper kind of men should be appointed as viewers. It might be well for the people to call in a mass meeting, say at Tygh, betweeu this and the 10th of March, to fix on the names of men they would like the court to appoint as view ers and take any other steps tnat may be proper towards the progress of the work. Wamic Items. Wamic, Dec. 20, 1891. Editor of the Chronicle: We have been having a nice winter so far, the days are clear and warm like spring, with nights cold and frosty, There were some fears entertained for the safety of the fall grain, but I do not think the freezing has hurt the growing grain any yet, it makes little difference with the farmers here if the crops are light or good. If we have more grain than homg needs require we nave no market, for we are locked up as it were without an outlet, and the county court holds the key, and they are not willing to assist us in building a road up Tygh Hill, so that we can get the products of our farm to market. It seems to me that the county court would loose noth ing financially in making a reasonable appropriation to assist in building a good road up Tygh Hill. The county would get the money back again in the increase in taxes, as then every available acre of farming land would be put under culti vation, which would soon enhance the value of taxable property to such an ex tent in this part of the county, that the tax payer would scarcely feel the differ ence after the road was built. But we have been asking the county court to assist us in making that road for a long time without any effect, and forbearance has ceased to be a virtue, and it seems to me, as the primaries are to meet soon, the voters of Tygh Valley Juniper, Oak Grove and Wamic, should instruct the delegates whom they send to the county convention not to vote for any man for a countv omce, mat win not pledge himself, to work if elected, to obtain a reasonable appropriation from the county court to assist in building a road up iygn run. JVo deaths to report ana trie sick are all getting better. Observer. The Opportunity of a Lifetime. The machinery and stock of the North Dalles shoe factory, sold today, comprises a complete 'equipment for running a first-class shoe factory per haps not a single thing in the way of machinery or supplies being lacking. The purchaser, Mr. Hugh Glenn has no use for it. It is for sale and for sale cheap and at once. The property cost in the neighborhood of $12,000, It is all new and can probably be bought and put in running shape, on this side the river for half the original cost. Here is The Dalles' opportunity the t opportunity of a life time to start a manufacturing establishment that will help to build up the town and give employment to the people. Let the matter be looked into so that if possible a company may be formed for the purchase of the plant and start a shoe factory on this, side the river. It can be done and ought to be. WMhtngto Correspondence. Washington, D. C, Jaiv. 22, 1892. Editor Chronicle: It is after eleven and Fitch and I have just returned from the Grand Opera house where we went to see the opera "Robin Hood" and it's way ahead of anything I have ever seen in that line. The music and acting were' both very good. We have put in a very busy day and this morning I had the honor to oc cupy Senator Mitchell's seat in the sen ate chamber of the United States. We had a good guide ' and every point of interest was shown to us. We west in every room In the capitol, after that we went to the Washington monu ment which is 555 feet high and made of white marble, as are all of the govern ment buildings with the exception of the war, navy and state building which is of brown stone, then we went to the treasury building and there I saw one vault 89 feet long, 51 feet wide and 12 feet high, which contains 93 millions of silver dollars. This is put up in sacks, each one containing one thousand dol lars, next to this is another vault 40 feet long, 30 feet wide and 12 feet high. This holds at this time in silver and gold 83 millions. It is, however, well guarded and I could not get hold of it, and there fore you can rest easily to night as the money and country are safe. In the same bnilding is a Mammoth masticator which chews up daily from three to five hnndred thousand dollars in old and mutilated currency. We also saw new money being made, printed and cut in bundles of 40 thousand each, and there was more than could be put into the whole building" -occupied by the Haight resturant in The Dalles. We also saw the battle of "Bull Run" in the Cyclorama building which was fine. This evening after dinner we went to the Corcoran art gallery which is said to be the finest collection of paintings and sculpture in the word. This was pre sented to the government by John W. Corcoran, ex-United States senator. Tomorrow we will attend the president's reception and go through the White House, war, navy and state buildings. Washington is the greatest place I have ever seen, the streets are about 200 feet wide exclusive of the sidewalks which are 50 feet wide each, and every street is so laid out that all avenues lead to the capitol. Jan. 23. Well I am tired. Have just comeback from the reception at the White House and had the pleasure of shaking hands with the president, and as Fitch says, he was in quite a nice home and in pretty good shape, and seems very well suited with his "Yob." We are having elegant weather for our trip and have enjoyed it very much. Today we have been through the army, navy and state also the patent office and the While House, and guess that is enough for one day. We leave for home this afternoon as Fitch must be home in the morning, but I am coming home this way and will then stop as long as I want to. -I rather dislike leaving this hotel as I think it is the best one all around that I ever have stopped in and the dining room is a pal ace. The band plays during dinner and I do not know as I will be able to eat without the music when I get borne. I guess it is bed time write any more tonight, to the boys also Bingo.

All the members were present excepting Councilman Haight, who is on a visit to the East. The report of the finance committee was ordered amended so that taxes assessed to the Wasco County Fair Asso ciation and charged against the Huma- son estate be remitted. Ordinance No. 244, an ordinance for the erection, maintainenee and opera tion of an electric and telephone plant in this city was passed unanimously: The report of the committee on streets and public property recommend ing that P. H. Delaney, who was injured some time ago by falling off the street at the old Waldron building, he allowed the sum of $200, was adopted, and the recorder ordered to draw a warrant in favor of Delaney for that sum. A petition to place an arc light on Alvord avenue near the John Cates' property was referred. The petition of F. Lemke for a cross walk on Ninth and Lincoln streets was granted. . , The petition of A. Horn and others for the grading of the square at Ninth and Lincoln streets was granted, and the recorder was instructed to advertise for bids for grading the same. The street commissioner was ordered to notify Messrs. McGuire, O'Leary and Jeffers'to move their fence from the street within twenty days. The petition of M. A.

Editor Chronicle: I smiled, yes, I laughed right out right aloud at "The Grandest Opportunity of a Lifetime" recently offered the public- spirited men(?) of this town to purchase a $2400 shoe plant foi $12,000. The country is full of the financial wrecks of butchers, bakers and candlestick mak ers, who have formed stock companies, so that thev might obtain the proud distinction of having a shoe factory in their town, preferring it to a seat in heaven, and who at the end of their first season's work find that their bal ance sheet stands something like this. Money none; experience dead loads. There is not a shoe factory in this country today, where the stockholders are entirely ignorant of the business and depending solely upon their brains for their success. It takes shoemakers to make shoes. An industry wouldn't thrive in this town. I judge so from the fact that there are. none here. The Dalles needs a grand holacaust of old, fossil mosabacks, forty per cent, money lenders, ia curse to any town), and such trash, and let the rising generation be taught that it takes manufacturies, in dustries of all kinds, to make a substan tial, thriving, prosperous town. Agri culture never made a lively business town. The sooner the town begins to encour age industries instead of discouraging them as is done now by those old second -time -on -earth fellows, you'll have a prosperous town, and not until then. - Observer.

The tendency of this disease toward Eneumonia is what makes it dangerous, a Grippe requires precisely the same treatment as a severe cold. . Chamber lain's Cough Remedv is famous for its cures of severe colds. This Remedy effectually counteracts the tendency of the disease to result in pneumonia, pro vided that proper care be taken to avoid exposure when recovering from the at tack. Careful inquiry among the many thousands who have 'used this remedy during the epidemics of the past two years has failed to discover a single case that has not recovered or that has re sulted in pneumonia. 25 cent, 50 cent and $1 bottles for. sale by Blakeley & Houghton, druggists. - - dw Two well-known Weston bachelors agreed to disagree during the past week, and, as the reporter is informed, could not decide as to a division of furniture and other property which goes to make a bachelor's hall comfortable. While in this dilemma one of the gentlemen con cluded to settle the matter in a simple manner. Procuring a saw he divided the tables, chairs, cupboard, etc., squarely in the center, and left his partner's half remaining in the cabin, taking his own to other quarters. It is stated that both are well satisfied and living happily apart. Unnecessary Sufferings. . There 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 cident is an illustration of tbie fact: My wife was troubled with a pain in her side the greater part of the time tor three years, until cured by Chamber lain's Pain Balm. It has, I think, per manently cured her. We also have used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy whenever needed and believe it to be tne best in the world. P. M. Boston, Pennville, Sullivan Co., Missouri.
