Special to TH Curoniclk. J
y Tub Dalles, Sept. 7. I have taken a
very great interest in, the" question of
good roads, how to make t and maintain
them: also in tbeconvictlaborquestion.
It seems to riio that the quickest way to"
settle both of these . most important
questions would be for each, state to do
away with the. present "system of con
tracting convict labor and put thereon;
victs to work on the " public highway.
Then would come an era of good road-
making. It would settle strikes-and
labor troubles to a certain extent, for the
convicts would not come into competi
tion with tradesmen, mechanics and
day laborers. - - S. B. R.-

Owing to the constant drain of gold to

The Dallks, Sept. 7. At a time like
this, when cholera threatens to invade
our land, will vou please puousn tne
following preventive, and if only one
case may thereby be prevented, it will
repav all the trouble. Marseilles (or
thieves vinegar, as it is called is pro
nounced . infallible as a preventive of
cholera. It was invented during a sea
son of pestilence, by four thieves, who
spent their time plundering the dying
and the dead, with no fear of infection,
the vinegar with which they supplied
thomselves being a successful disinfect'
ant. Their recipe, which is in use to.
day, is as follows: Dried tops of large
and Small wormwood, rosemary, sago,
mint, rue, lavender flowers, two ounces
of each ; calamus root, cinnamon,
cloves, nutmeg,- garlic, one and one-
fourth ounces each ; camphor, one-half
ounce ; concentrated acetic aciq, two
ounces: strong vinegar, eight .pounds.
Macerate the herbs in the vinegar for
two weeks; strain, press and add the
camphor dissolved in ' the acetic acid.
It is used as a perfume" abont the per

Chicago. Sent 7. With all the fuss
and feathers that were painfully in evi
dence during the last two years, both
political parties begin the campaign of
1892 in Chicago practically without
organization. - The situation is better
explained by the statement of Ex-Sena'
tor Bloom of Auburn V ark. He- says
"the republicans have held the city hall
and dispensed the city patronage for a
year and a half, and yet that party is
not only without organization' but is
practically split in twain by factions
contending for- supremacy within the
party. In the democratic camp the
fiarrimon and antr-Harrimon factions
have been sleeping on their arms, but
ready to fly at each other's throats at
the first note of war. Nothing, how
ever, has been done toward preparing to
battle with the common' enemy the
republicans. At the opening of the
campaign there 'was. not a democratic
organization In Cook county for the
purpose of aiding the party at the gen
eral election. The fact is that politics,
such as we have had for the last year
and a half in this city, has not been
partisan politics, but mere factional
contentions. The city-hall patronage
has been used not to strengthen the
grahd old party, but to strengthen the
Gilbert-Hertz-Washburno machine a-
gainst the other factions of the party.
The patronage has been dispensed with
a view to controlling the primary elec
tions, and not for the purpose of carry
ing general elections. Democratic
- plans, such as they are, have been laid
preparatory to a resumption of the
- wearisome Harrimon quarrel. Now
that the time has come for active work
with a view of carrying tho general
election in November, nothing is ready
. and no one appears to know what to do."
The republican state central commit'
tee will hold a meeting at the Grand
Pacific hotel today. One of the princl
pal questions to- be considered will be
-the disposition of speakers. It is in
tended to take up the congressional
' districts separately, and apportion the
-orators assigned by the national com
mittee to Illinois for the campaign
The other questions to come before the
-state committee's meeting were, consid
ered by the executive officers last even
ing. Republicans are beginning to
plume themselves in the idea that they
are certain to carry the lower house of
the legislature, and whenever there is
a possibility of saving a member the
party managers can present claims for

during the contest. Frank Moran, who
has a share in the Sullivan stakes, was
questioned as to the Sulli van view of the
Corbett claim that the . champion mnet
dress no higher than the navel in this

Whale Off the Coast. '
Oregonian. A. W. McKenzie, of the
steamer Willapa, says " the Columbia
river, at its month, is fairly swarming
with sardines. - Since the salmon 'fish
ing season has how expired, many of
the fishermen are turning to this as a
means of livelihood, which is proving
quite profitable. . On the previous morn
ing the men on the Willapa sighted an
immense whale, dead, floating in the
ocean,, a snort distance, from shore.
They at first thought it was a schooner
bottom Side up, so immense was its size.
He thinks that this unusually large
school - of " sardines has attracted the
monsters of the deep, for it is a fact that
whale have been more numerous in the
proximity of the mouth of the Colum
bia than ever before. The steamers on
the San Francisco line pass through
great schools of whale ail along the Ore
gon coast. . -

tables all over the world this morning,
the sporting fraternity, and; for. the oc
casion, men, "women and children gen

their newspapers to learn-, with satisfac
tion in tho greatest degrees of proportion,
that Corbett has taken the champion's
belt from John L. Sullivan. Nauseating
details of sickening scenes will be read
with eagerness to learn all the repelling
particulars, of how two' human - hyenas
endeavored to anhiliate each other for
money, while a great multitude looked

once was honest on the fat brawn of
Sullivan or the nimblo-footed science of
his opponent. . Tho saloons jind gamb

sport from Colorado dropped $8,000 in a
game in a singlo night after having got

tune of $6,000. One of the most pitiable
spectacles of the occasion is the pres
ence of E. II. Canfield, a Philadelphian

of two or three western newspapers. He

wildly hiiarions as the one which
usually goes with the Mardi Gras cele

I. i . ratty, the freight engineer, is
lucky. Instead of losing his life he now
suffers from a badly sprained foot and
ankle.v A bridge about five 'miles west
of Wilbur was being repaired yesterday,
and a danger flag was set about a quar
ter of a mile from the bridge. At 10
o'clock, when the west-bound freight,
drawn by the big '" hog" which Mr.
Patty handles, reached the flag, he put
on the air, reversed the engine and
whistled for brakes on the cars having
no air. But the great weight of the
train, on the heavy down grade at that
point carried it along and Mr. Patty
jumped through .the cab window just
before reaching, the bridge, dropping a
distance of fifteen feet and alighting on
his feet. Both ankles were badly
sprained and bruised. The - engine
passed over the rails across the weak
place but' two box cars went through
the bridge. - The engineer was taken to

Raid of the Worms.
; Examiner. Investigation shows that
the measuring worms which were re
ported as destroying the forests of Clat
sop and Tillamook counties have not
been nearly so destructive as they were
at first thought to be. Fir trees have
not .been molested, and not more than
25 per cent, of the hemlocks attacked
have been killed bv the worms.
Which is ..Shortly to
- State Capitol.
' Several cars passed down today from
the east loaded with iron ami steel, for
the capitol dome at Salem. ,
" Oregon has many .' things to justly
boast of in the way of genial climate,
fertile soil, good crops, big red apples
and lots of - pretty, girls. But, aside
from all these things, she will soon have,
reason to foel prood of the new capitol
dome, which is to surmount the state .
building. Soon tho average Webfoot
can point with exultation at the hand
some addition which is to ornament the .
state capitol. Speaking of the work
that is now ia progress, a contemporary
says:
The eight foundations have .already
been made, having been excavated to .
the same depth as those under' the
present walls. They are 6x6, the first
course being concrete to, tho thickness .
of four feet. On top. of this are footing
stones 5x5, and 20 inches thick, laid in
cement - mortor. Bolted upon each
foundation "is a' wrougbt-iron bedplate
3x3, and securely bolted to this resta'
the steel column. These columns will
be capable of sustaining the entire load
of dome and eighty pounds per sonare
foot of available floor space. The col
umns are to be enclosed by a neat casing
of Oregon cedar, with carved capitals,
moldings, etc. - On top of tho columns
will be placed a circular steel girder,
which is to be proportioned to carry tho "
entire weight of the domp and cir
cular brick wall.
The steel posts and brackets support
ing the first floor of the dome are to be
mado of sufficient strength to carry the
floor load of 80 pounds per square foot
and the weight of the dome above It.
Ail tho frame work above the first floor -will
be constructed of steel except tho
floors, and of sufficient strength to carry
the superimposed loads and a wind stress
of 38 pounds per square foot of exposed
surface. The dome will be covered with
copper, and all of the side walls and t
ornaments will be of copper fastened to
the steel frame by tho most approved
methods. -The windows are all to be '
glazed with doublo thick best crystal
sheet glass. The stairs, which are to be
of wrought steel, will start from the
upper floor of the capital. The ceiling
lights are to be of art glass in wrought- '
Iron sash; and the inner surfaco of the -dome
in light-well shall be plastered,
wire lath being - used. There will be
plaster casts , and ornaments. The
heavier material for the dome haB nearly
all arrived, and the contractors Bay when -a
full force is once put on they can com- :
