- London, June 29. The queen jester
day signed the decree ni Windsor castje,.
dissolving parliament. There were
present lxrd Crahbrook, lord president';
ex-Chancellor Goschen, chancellor of the
exchequer, and Earl of Lathoni, lord
chamberlain of the household. 'Writs
for the'election of members of the house
of commons were, at once-distributed.
The queeen's iceeh proroguing parlia
ment says:. "The time has arrived
when it is expedient the electoral body
of the country 1 consulted by the as
semblage of a new parliament. 1 have
therefore summoned you for prorogation
at an earlier period than usual. I am
gludto record that my friendly relations
with foreign powers remain unaltered.
Treaties have been duly ratified referring
the differences with the United States
with respect to the Behringsea to arbi
tration." Referring to the bills passed
at the session' just ended, the speech
says the arrangements that parliament
has made enabling the workingmen to
purchase agricultural holdings will in
crease a class of cultivating owners,
which is of great importance to the
state. The application to Ireland of the
educational measures recently adopted
in Great Britain will confer a very great
benefit upon the people of that country.
The speech concludes : ''In closing this
parliament, which has been usually la
borious and also highly fruitful in bene- i
licient legation, I thank you for the as
siduous performance of your momentous
duties during the past six years, and
heartily commend von to the favor of
Almighty God."
. ' -- Current Topics.
The East Oregonian has ascertained
that A. E. Stevenson, vice-president on
the democratic ticket, is a consin of ex
Governor Stevenson, of Idaho.
An exchange would have the public
believe that matrimony being one of the
United States, Ohio likewise, and ex
secretary Vhitney having married in
Ohio;' he is, therefore, "an Ohioan by
marriage." Oil's well that ends swell.
Harrison It. Kincaid, editor of the
State Journal, has been recommended
by a number of the prominent citizens
of Oregon, for the position of Collector
of Customs at Portland, made vacant
by the death of Hon. It. P. Earhart.
The Guard hopes that he will be given
the appointment, as he is deserving of
the place by his long and continuous
faithful services to Lis party. Besides,
says the Guard, he is honest and fully
competent. The people of Lane county arejubilant
over the fact that the subsidy for the !
railroad from Eugene to Florence has all
been raised, says the Times. This was
at first thought to be impossible, but
every man put his shoulder to the
wheel, fully realizing that in nnity there
is strength, and the $100,000 was raised.
The people of that county never made a
better investment. The natural advan
tages of the route, the subsidy that is
pledged, and the resources of the section
of country to be traversed will make it a
profitable and paying road.
Referring to the bolt of the Oregon
delegation for McKinley, Hon. C.
W. Fulton says it meant no ill will to
ward Harrison. "When the Oregon
delegation ' reached Minneapolis we
found a big split in the republican forces,
and, despairing of Harrison's ability to
unite them, and believing also that
some 'dark-horse' democrat would be
chosen instead of Cleveland at Chicago, j
we came to the conclusion that safety
lay only in nominating some new man.
Therefore we voted for McKinley. Mr.
Hayes, - however, voted for Harrison.
-.' We feared the democratic dark-horse be-
cause the attitude of both Harrison and
. Cleveland on the silver question is well
known, and silver men believe that
either would veto a silver bill. There
fore, surmising that the democrats
j would possibly pat up a man who had
not committed himself,- or who would
probably approve a free-silver bill, we
thought it suicidal for -us to put Mr.
Harrison in the field. The silver men
favored McKinley, not because he had j
shown a favoritism for free silver, but
because he had remained upon the fence
without declaring himself. They
thought they stood a better chance with
him than with Harrison. Its all right
now:"
The Chrlntain Church.
A very important convention of the
Christian church is in (session this, week
in Memorial hall, at Turner, Marion
county. It is estimated that 10,000
people will be in attendance, Yester
days session was devoted to Sunday
schools. Today is devoted to the Y. P.
S. C. E. Tomorrow will be the Chris
tain woman's board of missions day ;
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Oregon
Christian missionary convention days.
Sunday, July 8. will be the closing day
of the convention, and will be given up
to preaching and praise services.
As this church has an organization in
The Dalles, and is carrying on a- good
work, it may be interesting to the public
to learn that the .denomination will
count up ubouta.OOQ in Oregon, .stand
ing at least third, perhaps second, in
numerical strength in the state. They
number almost 1,000,000 in thiscountry,
anJ their growth is more vapid jift )K-
portion to their numbers'; thanj tiny re
ligious rbodv on the continent. They
have no' legislative- body! among them.
Their conventions are deiegal'e'iueetings
of the churches for . work and worship,
such' as laying out- plans and raising
funds for preaching the gospel in desti
tute places, and discussing the questions
that affect the life and progress of the
church. They have about thirty col
leges and -universities under their con
trol, publish twelve to fifteen weekly
papers, a large number of monthlies and
one quarterly. They have missionaries
in China, India, Japan, Turkey and Af
rica. ,They claim to hold to simple New
Testament Christianity, and believe that
they occupy the ground toward which
the christian world is rapidly tending.
They eschew all theological speculations,
and affirm that religion is a life of
obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ, in
spired by faith in Him as the divine
Savior.
What Might He.
If the cascade locks were opened, and
it was a little later in the season, with
the jetty finished, the steamer Cas?ade
and her barges, might be transferred to
the Inland Empire and instead of carry
ing rock, we could load her up at The
Dalles with wool, bides, sheep, salmon,
horses,. cattle, wheat, oats, corn, flour,
etc. The Astorian Bays : ' "The steamer
Cascades came down with an unusual
tow yesterday afternoon. The steamer
had five barges loaded with stones for the
government jetty in tow. . One barge
being pushed ahead, two lashed on either
side and two made fast amidships. The
barges were anchored off Uppertown
without trouble." Those five barges and
the . steamer represent about G, 000,0(10
lbs. dead weight freight; 3,000 tons, at
2 tons to the carload fifteen hundred
cars would be required for the days run
to Astoria. Will Whitconib will agree
to make two round trips a week, with
just such an outfit as that, from Astoria
to The Dalles and back again, thus doing
the work of 3,000 cars, all with one
steamboat.
llnrcan of Information.
Astoria has an authentic bureau of
information to which parties desiring
information concerning the port may
apply with a positive assurance of reli
ability. Such an institution many peo
ple think is very much needed in The
Dalles. It should be organized by peo
ple interested in properly representing
the liberal inducements which the re
sources of this region offer as an encour
agement for invrstments in manufac
tures. All partiee, or any individual,
who feels that such an organization is
needed . here, is . requested to clip this
out, attach it to a sheet of paper, and
return it to Tnn Chronicle, with such
remarks as mav be deemed essential to
endorse the plan, not for publication
necessarily, but as an evidence of an
interest to impel the calling of a meet
ing of representative citizens with such
purpose in view. . Address all such com
munications to The Cukomclk Manager,
Dalles City, Or.
Reservation Gold Field.
Klamath Star. A report is in circula
tion to the effect that in many places on
the Klamath Indian reservation good
prospects of gold, both quartz and
placer, have been found quite easily,
some of them extremely rich. The
government forbids the working of
mines there, but when the reservation
is opened to' settlement, the rush for
these prospect holes will be lively and
probably pretty warm.
The Tych Hill Koad.
Dufur Dispatch. Tom Driver in town
yesterday, says the Tygh road is nearly
done, and is now in use. All speak in
high terms of the road, and particularly
of the easy grade that has been secured.
One man with two horses took up a load
of 1,000 pounds in fifty minutes. A part
of onr coming celebration'' will be to cel
ebrate the completion of the Tygh hill
road. Glory enough for the day.
Oregon The Aaylnm.
Klamath Star. The cyclones that
waltz through , the Mississippi . valley
start more immigrants this way. than
all the boom circulars in the land. They
whisper to the people that an asylum
from the wrath oi the heavens should
be hunted up, and the whisper is mighty
load sometimes. The fact that Oregon
is that asylum is made impressive by ;
the voice of .cyclone, and the alarmed in
habitants do the rest.

Convention of the People.
Omaha, June 30. Numerically one of
the greatest political conventions fever
held in America assemble here Friday,
and on Monday, July 4th, it will nomi
nate a presidential ticket representing
the principles and policy of the peoples'
party. "That the results of the conven
tions at Minneapolis and Chicago have
encouraged the leaders' and the rank and
tile of this ambitious and exceedingly
active and agressive, though raw young
organization is quite obvious. Mr.
Jerry Simpson talks bravely of what the
peoples party will do in jsovemoer, ana
Chairman Tanbeneck, not less sanguine,
promises to wrest from the democrats
part of the solid south, capture the sil-
ver states, retain Kansas, and give the
republicans a hard fight for supremacy
in the Dakotas, Minnesota and Iowa.
On the silver issue the people's party
universally believes that it will become
an important factor in the present cam-
paign. Both Mr. Harrison and. Mr.
Cleveland are clearly on record touching
that question, and that bitter feeling
against each of them is widespread' in
the west and the south is perfectly ap-
parent. Their opposition to free coin-
age has set former aunerents against
them. If the election were to be held
tomorrow both the parties would prob
ably lose a state or two.
But between now and November the
believers in free coinage may find them-,
selves sucked into the great maelstrom
of the tariff light. The tariff is bound
to be the dominant issue, and whether
the people's party will or no, it must
face that issue and be subject to its
influences. Those of its members who
believe in tariff reform will feel the im
pulse to join with the forces 'making for
that end, while those adhering to the
idea of McKinley, rather than see the
protection walls torn down bv hostile
hands, will drop silver and rally to the
rfpfansfl of what mav seem to them the
more vital thing.
Inthesonth the force-bill issue will
dominate and tend to drive would-be
deserters from the democracy back into
the party lines. But the Omaha con
vention with its 1,776 delegates is going
to be a big and a very important affair.
It will be representative and earnest,
enthusiastic and perhaps turbulent, and
in session it will present a spectacle at
once picturesque and suggestive. The
old parties will look upon it with more
than passing interest. Those who are
inclined to look upon the leaders as
mere dreamers should reflect that they
desire to nominate as their candidate
for president so conservative and sin
cere and a man as Judge Walter (I.
Gresham.
A Word for the Treacher.
Christian Standard. If your preacher
is not quite np to the measure of the
statue of your ideal ; if he is not so ele
gant as Robinson, or entertaining as
Beecher, or eloquent as Brooks; if he
lacks somewhat on the social side, and
is a little, slow and awkward iri making
trienas, tne poorest ot an : remedies is
criticism and censure. For all ordinary
ministerial failings an ounce of co-operation
is worth a pound of criticism ; a gill
of sympathy worth more than a gallon
of censure. Any sincerely pious man of
of ordinary talent, can be made into an
efficient,' successful pastor by a congre
gation ; and any man, however good and
gifted, can be made a failure by the
same congregation. . A congregation
may be known by the sort of pastors it
makes.
First Peachea of the Season.
Walla Walla Statesman. Dr. N. G.
Blalock, president of the Columbus fair
commission received today a box of the
first ripe Walla Walla peaches for this
year. They are grown on the fruit farm
of Mr. B. F. Simmonds, which is located
in this county on Snake river. The
flavor of the peaches is excellent, and
they are fully one month earlier than
any ever grown in this section before.
They were of the variety known as the
Ainsden June peach. Mr. Simmonds
informs Dr. Blalock that he will have
over 200 boxes in Walla Walla on the
Fourth of July to supply the visitors
who will be here : that day.

WHITELAW REID.
Chicago Broiled.
Chicago, June 30. It was hot yes
terday, but not so hot as some drug
store thermometers indicated. One of
these industrious recorders frightened
people at the corner of State and Mad
ison streets yesterday afternoon with the
figures 108 "in the shade," when the
official . thermometer in the Auditory
tower never got within five degrees of
that temperature. Some people say
that the business thermometer is built
on the spring balance principle and reg
isters more or less as the exigencies of
the case may require. This hot spell is
part of an immense heat wave spread
over the whole continent from Pacific
to Atlantic. The temperature mav be
more oppresive toaay, dui me next aay
j the government weather man says a
j cool wave may be expected. He says
also that there is no danger ot a return
j of the wet weather. The school girl in her
j cool white dress and variegated parasol
and the man proud and resplendent in
j lavender pantaloons, linen vest and
j straw hat jostled along the shady side of
j the street with the fat man, the points
of his steaming suspenders showing

stream of male humanity poured into

out the inward heat with copious drinks

Soda fountains and
ice-cream stands were niduen behind
dense crowds of men,' women and child
ren. Candy peddlers, with wares in a
molten mass of sweetness on the trays,
sold fans, and the hot-tamale man gave
up in disgust. ' All Chicago took to the
shady side. Hammocks were swung in
every nook where a shadow fell and a
breeze played, and citizens in mother

Chicago, June SO. The association of
stationary engineers finds unlimited
fault with the easy-going and free
handed manner tf issuing engineers'
licenses to those who do not understand
the work of an engineer. The engineers'
organization assert that many men are
being licensed who are unfit to be left
alone with a steam engine. The organi
zation draws a frightful picture of the
dangers which menace property, life and
limb from the employment of incompe
tent engineers. As a remedy for the
evil the association have petitioned the
council for a stringent restrictive ordi
nance. It is undoubtedly true that
much cause for complaint exists, and it
is also possible that a new ordinance
would do much to remedy the evil.
But, after all, the matter depends on
public sentiment. Those persons who
employ incompetent engineers should
be held rigidly accountable for accidents
brought about through ignorance or j
carelessness of their employes. If, !
when indicted thev are not permitted to j
escape merited punishment, then there j
will be less need of iron-clad ordinances !
and penetrating inquisitions into the
mental capacities and practical knowl
edge of would-be licensees. When it
becomes thoroughly dangerous econ
omy to employ half-skilled engineers the
era of competent service will be near at
hand. f1

Wasco Sun. Mr. T. J. Driver, super

there will be no difficulty in procuring

the falling off in velocity would be too
marked if any long range were attempt
ed. ' With dirigible torpedoes, however,
the case is very different. Then one
must depend on electricity for steering
if not for motive power, and there is
room for considerable improvement both
in speed and certainty of operation, two
prime essentials. But the function of
the electrician is by no means ended with
torpedo service, fov in the equipment of
any modern man-of-war the electrical
apparatus plays it very important part
The modern gun. twenty to forty feet

cannot be handled by man power as

between electricity on the ono band and

on the other. The latter have been very
freely in use. the former has made its j
influence felt often enough to show that 1
it is fully up to its work. The electric i

such sort of work than any other kind
