Connelly, formerly school sup erintendent of Wasco county, paid his respects to The Chronicle yesterday. He is now a resident of Troutdale. A banquet in honor of the day was given by the Catholic society of this city last evening, at which quite a party were entertained in a most appropriate man ner. Some tramp robbed Sam Thurman's batcbelor parlors of his blankets, cook ing outfit, and grub, a few days since, and then took Charley Hill's boat to get away with the booty. The board of engineers appointed to make an inspection of the the dalles and Celilo obstruction to navigation in the Columbia, will probably arrive this evening by the steamer Regulator. Messrs. Bronson, Green, Joslyn and Balfour spent the day yesterday at Mc- Clure's lake, duck and snipe shooting. They bagged fifteen mallards, four snipe, one teal, a widgeon and a canvas back. Mr. Bronson has leased the privilege, and will plant some Wapatoes in the lake, so as to be sure of birds when he wants them. Grandpa Snipes, a pioneer 82 years of age living near Goidendale, can peruse his obituary in the newspapers - this week, occasioned by a blunder in send ing a dispatch to his son which stated that he had fallen down stairs and broken his neck. He had a fall, in which he bruised his leg. On receipt of this sad intelligence Mr. and Mrs. B. E. Snipes and Mrs. H. H. Allen immedi- ately took the train expecting to see the dead body of their father when they ar rived at Goidendale. They were very happily disappointed. Somebody sug gested to Ben that the blunder was bad enough to found a suit upon for dam ages. "Yes," said Mr. Snipes, "that is a fact ; but the damage was paid when I met father alive." A political campaign speech this year is more or less dull because of the statis tical portions necessary to carry convic-1 tion on the basis of education. An nouncement had been made that there was to be an address last night by Hon. Binger Hermann, at the Court house, but the state central committee made other arrangements and sent to The Dalles Hon. Geo. C. Brownell, late chair man of the Kansas State Republican committee, but now a resident of Oregon City. Mr. Brownell is a young man, we may eay a rising young man. That he is thoroughly posted upon national topics was proven clearly by his address last night. He handled every phase of the subject in an intelligent manner, and held his audience an hour and a half, closing with several well rounded points, and palpable hits which were frequently enthusiastically cheered, and had the very desirable and convincing effect of establishing confi dence that the're is yet too much grati tude left in the hearts of the American people to even think that they would go back upon the great republican party and forsake its principles for the often denied democracy. " 1 ' " The board of trustees of the Congre gational church, through their secretary Mr. S. L. Brooks, has offered the use of their new church to the Christian church for their services every Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. This yery gener ous offer is highly appreciated by the members and friends of the Christian church, and on Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock Elder J. W. Jenkins will preach in the Congregational church.

The advent of the American Dressed Beef Co., followed, as it was, by the or- ganization here of the Portland Butcher ing Co., has had the good effect of sup plying our market with Ithe choicest meats to bo procured anywhere in the world. . But thev have had a deterrent effect upon the local cattle-raising iudus try by which so many of the farmers of western Oregon and Washington were enabled to make considerable monev. It used to be that a farmer could keep a small band of cattle, or a few dozen sheep and hogs, and if crops were light from any cause there was something to rely upon for ready money, because there was always a ready market in the city among the butchers and packers for all that could be raised within a radius of a hundred miles or so, and prices were so good that the farmer was encouraged to continue in the business as far as his range means of raising hay and other feed would allow. It is all different now. The great meat companies import their live meats from the plains, receiving them here in car loads and train loads.

In noting the death of Judge Thornbury the Oregonian says : Judge Thornburv has for manv years held a prominent place in the regard of Eastern Oregoniana aud the announcement of his death will be sad news to his many friends. Judge Thornbury was born in West chester, Pa., in 1820, where he learned the printer's trade in all its branches. In 1S-J9, in company with a number of his young acquaintances, he made a trip around Cape Horn to San Francisco. After mining with more or less success, ... i . -1 1 j i : T.. ! una aiBuncry auu n vp.uuc.. . went, in 1881. to Yreka. where he It is generally understood that Hon. established its first newspaper.

Mr. John Melville, formerly of this city is visiting friends in The Dalles to day. He reports his present home, La Grande, as booming. The carpenters moved out, and the being the second marriage celebrated there. Becoming acquainted with Cap tain McDermott, he accompanied him to Meigs' Ferry, and in partnership they put in a new ferry, and set up a store, which proved very successful. At intervals both partners engaged in prospecting, and during one of their absences from home the Klamath In dians attacked and burned the store and ferry, murdering several people.

He also filled a position in the service for about one year. He later moved to Fort Jones, in Scott Valley, Siskiyou county, where he kept a hotel for a number of years. He was elected a member of the California legislature from Siskiyou county in 1801, as a Doug las democrat, and was one of those who s;urdidly opposed the states upholding the cause of secession. Late in the '60s he started for Oregon overland by a mule team, on his way to Canyon City, in slaughtering their own meats, so that the home producerof now has no market for an extra steer or a few hogs or sheep, as lie formerly had; If he offers to sell to the companies they will pay no more than they can get the same animals for at a distance, which is about one-half the price that live stock brought here two years ago. Several farmers living twenty or thirty miles away have lately told a Chronicle reporter that they would have to reduce their droves of stock to their own necessities, as it did not pay them to raise a fine, fat steer to sell for about twenty dollars, which is about all they can get now. There is no decrease in the retail price of meats, for the con sumer pays just as much now as ever. Altogether it is doubtful if the great butchering companies have helped the country very much.

He was a member of the Oregon legis lature of 1872, for Grant county. In 1873, The Dalles Land office was opened and he was appointed receiver, which position he held for 12 years, giving uni versal satisfaction.

A Region ltich In Kesonrces Adapted for Settlement. Special to The Chbomcle. Fairview, Wasco Co., Oct. 22. As all settlements of Wasco county are invited to representation in The Chronicle, perhaps a few lines from this might in the future bear some good results. This location is commonly known as Dutch Flat. It is situated from seven to fourteen miles southwest of The Dalles, and has an elevation of from 1,500 to 1,800 feet above The Dalles, or 1,660 to 1,960 feet above tide water, with an area of 15,000 acres susceptible to cultivation producing grain of all kinds of the best quality. .Timothy, red clover and alfalfa do well and vege tables of all description, and for corn I do not think it can be beat in the state, yellow and white dent, King Philip and all kinds of sweet or sugar corn, and fruit of every kind. I venture to say, without fear of contradiction, that I have seen the largest German and Hun garian prunes here this season that I have ever seen in the state, and their appearance and flavor were nothing short of delicious. The samples which j i senu you wiin this are lair average samples of our blue Pearmain and Gravenstein apples, grown by my neigh bors Messrs. Jones and Nelson. I think that the moderation of the summer cli mate during the frui season has a great deal to do with giving them the fine flavor. As for grapes this region cannot be be beaten. The population of this settlement is, all told, sixty-one souls, but we have quite a settlement one and a half to four miles west with about the same population, both well provided for a school, and would say to those looking for a home, you can do no better than to come up here and locate, as there are a number of good places yet to be taken up. v ooa and water are more conven ient than in any locality in Wasco county, and we get a greater amount of rain fall than any other part of the country. There was tufiicient rain here two or three weeks ago to start the plough, and in fact some have already sown and their grain is up and growing. We are so located that all the showers which meet and scatter in the mount ains south and west of us always send a portion to us. Lumber for building is plentiful. Five to eight miles to a good saw mill, and if we ever get an open river there will not be an acre of vacant land in this region long, being so close to the market, the soil of such fine qual ity and the temperature of the climate so delightful and healthy. This section in the near future will send to the mar kets the finest fruits in Wasco county, as it has already done in the line of hay and wheat. Mr. W. G. Obist told me this morning that his wheat weighed at the Diamond mills the highest per bushel of any wheat that had arrived at the mill, and it must have been good, as he got the top price of the market, sixty-four cents, and ft also gained one per cent, in weight over the average.
