f C 5? THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1893. The Veekly Chfoniele. TP B : DKEGON LOCAl. AND PERSONAL : 1 . " ' . From the Daily Chronicle. Friday i" Mr. Alex. MacLeod of 'urtland, is in the city. C. M. Donaldson, of Baker City, is in The Dalles on business. J. S. Booth and G. VV . Runyon are in the consolidated city today. V. L. Vanderpool of Dufur, retarncd last, niifht from a business trip to the metropolis. . Perry Howard of Wapinitia came in yesterday and will return today w ith a stock of winter supplies. ntwithstandinsr the denial of the Astoria eannervmen. the fact remains that they have formed a trust. The last through trip of the steamers Regulator and Dalles City for at least two weeks, will be made tomorrow. Invitations are out for the Crystal u'ni,i;..rr on tli n n n i vt t sarv. of Mr. and y Mrs.' J. M. Patterson, Monday evening next. Mr. A. Bunnell, one of the old-time citizens of The Dalle, lias gone to Luw iston to spend the winter witli his brother. Mrs. Albert McF: rlawl who has been visiting friends and relatives in The i Dalles for some time past, left for her home in Seattle yesterday. , Indications point t' the fact that tin ' coming legislative assembly is to have more than theavera-e numherot comity seat and county division contests. If this pleasant weather continues, Tim Tlallpsstrt-ets wall soon again be of the hard-pan-surface order. The muddy places are drying up very rapidly. That United States flag was not run up this morning until 9 :30. It is -'technically wrong" not to hoist the Stars and Stripe3 in official places at sunrise. Mr. J. H. Klock of Ohio, arrived in the city Saturday evening last. Mr. Klock is a nephew of N. Mathias, and is pleased with what he has seen of our country. Messrs. Maier & Benton are deter mined that the citizens of The Dalles J should not want for tubers for a while. They shipped in from below loO sacks yesterday. . A crusade against ladies wearing high hats at places of ainu-enient has com menced. At the Tremont theater in Ros ton, ladies are requested to remove theuj or wear small bonnets. A observer says that banana juice . miie8 a first class indelible ink. A spot on a white cloth from a dead-ripe banana is marked forever, and the juice from bananas thoroughly decayed is a bright, clear carmine. Christmas goods at very low prices the common remark at all The Dalles stores this week. The stocks are reall 8UDerb in all lines; the best exhibit The Dalles has ever made in any pre vious year. Mr. C. G. Green, of Collins landing, and Mrs. R. X. Nickeson and children, of the same place, came up by the Regu lator last night to prepare for the last trip for a short time of the Regulator, and do some shopping. Every citizen should consider the in , terests of The Dalles paramount to those of any man or set of men. As a matter of fact there must be two sides to everv question, but in the main effort all should pull together for the general good. Louie Davenport arrived at the stock yards last evening from his Mosier ranch, with a carload of fat cattle, sold to Charles Butler, of Port Townsend. j They were weighed before shipping, and every one of them went over 1,200 pounds. Jos. B. Keenev of Pendleton, now the pioneer stage man longest in the Inland Empire, has been in the city several days on business with A. W. Branner, - manager of the Oregon, California and Idaho Stage company. He left for Pen dleton yesterday. :We are inclined to the belief that our farmers will "miss it" by holding pota toes. The Southern Pacific railway is hauling potatoes to San Francisco for almost nothing. There is a big crop and the surplus will seek the points of demand. - The livery and feed stables of the city are a pretty certain index of the amount of country business done in the city. They are. all comfortably filled with country teams today, and the large stables of Robertson & Burham are over flowing. -Deputy IT. S. Marshal Jameson ar , rested a man for selling liquor, to In dians this week who was armed with, a revolver and 150 rounds of cartridges. He took to Portland yesterday two priaV oners, white inext, charged with selling liquor to Indians, accompanied by eight Indians as witnesses. . Mr. 8. Sj Hayes, county clerk of Sher man county, and Mrs. Hayes, accom panied with Mrs. Henry Moore, of Moro, are in the city. Mrs. Hayes goes out tomorrow morning on the Regula tor to visit friends and relatives in the Willamette valley. Mr. Hayes" returns borne tomorrow. . 5 The funeral of Win. Bethune will take olace tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from, the undertaking parlors of Cran da!J & Burget. - The police courts very quiet. Mar shal Mafoney had. but one hobo before the court this morning, and he was up tor begging. Mr. George V. Rowland has bought the Wm. Butler warehouse, and is mov ing it to Second street and will fit it up for a business house. East End is mak ing stdv irrowth and is becoming a business a.rt of the city. Quite a love scene was witnessed on Washington street this morning between a dusky maiden and her sweetheart The characters were well played and as To glance over the local papers of the state, in nearly every' locality is found this heading: "Another Pioneer Gone." There is something pathetic in this re frain, and the constant rehearsing of "it leads one to wonder that there are any of the old pioneers left to tell the tales of yore. The latest reported death of a pioneer is that of Judge J. Orvis Wat erman, auditor of fckamanra county,! Wash. ' His death occurred last Sunday j at the Cascades, and he was buried at Washougal on Tuesday, by the I. O. O. F. He was a charter member of Samar itan No 2. In early days Judge .'ater man was a conspicuous figure among men in Oregon. When Lot Whitcomb laid out the town of Milwaukie, .midway between Oregon Citv mid ' Captain Buschke, of The Dalles, was in Moro last week buying a team for himself, and while- there -he drew up a petition-to the general war department asking that there be a cavalry company formed in Moro. The Regulator brought up 200 sacks of potatoes last night from Portland. . It turns out that the potato crop was so large west of the mountains that a mar ket is sought in San Francisco, and even there the tuber is dull on the market. Deputy Sheriff Phirman sold true to life as though they were con- wa8 Carter & Waterman who established ducted by pale faces. He humored her the gwr at that ptAut &nd he a8 its pout, and finally kissing, they made up, eilit0r. advocated the beauties of its location. This was Nov. 15th, 1850, about a month previous to the first lot of cigars today at sheriff sale at t he Court house. The amount for which they were sold was $36.00 and the amount of claim and costs was $37.00. Mr. H.

BUY AND SELL- and he surrendered the pack to her Nearly every day there are fresh evi dences accumulating to show the neces sttv for something in the shape of a Bureau of Information, or board of trade in The Dalles, We all know the useful ness of such organizations. We should keep up a board of trade constantly, and not let another one die for lack of sup port From a passenger by steamer Regula tor vesteruay we iearn that tne L . r. steamer Bonita. wrecked near Bridal issue of the Oregonian by T J.

The old saying that a man who is h iwn lawyer has a fool for a client, may be a little too sweeping. We would not state the truth which it contains in quite so harsh a form. But it is entirely within the bounds to say that the claim ant who tries to look after his own claim instead of having it prosecuted by a competent attorney does not understand his own interests. Even in this "off" year in the valley according to reports the farmers have realized handsomely from their prune orchards. A car load was shipped to Chicago last week from Oak Grove Hon. Geo. W. Johnson of Dufur, was in the citv on business last evening. He returned todav. Hon. E. L. Smith of Hood River, ac companied by Mrs. Smith, visited The Dalles yesterday. Mr. John .Marshall of Portland is in the city, on a visit to his sister, Mrs. A. M. Williams. We are pleased to hear that Mr. Geo. P. Morgan id improving and will soon be on the streets again. . Owing to the continued illness of Pas tor Taylor there will be no preaching service at Academy hall to-morrow. Dr. Siddall is in Portland, where he which had been purchased at 9 cents expects to remain and partake of Christ- per lb. One man realized $2,000 from ten acres, another $1,900 from b acres. The Dalles crops being better than any thine in the vallev. show much more satisfactory returns.

His competitor wa elected liy'141.' J. N. Laubach, formerly hook keeper for Snipes &. Kinersly, was elected' county clerk by thirty-three majority. Both gentlemen are republi cans, and both are popular. Portland and alia Walla are wrest ling with the muddy streets, and ac cording to all accounts thev are far worse in either city than are the streets of The Dalles. There seems to be no way in which this nuisance can be auted. The rain will descend, and travel makes mud and scatters it far and wide. Until all the streets are perma nently improved, and some adequate system adopted to keep the thorough fares clear of the all-pervading mud. the public must endure the inconvenience. mas turkey, returning to The Dalles on the 27th. The road to ambition is too narrow for friendship, too crooked for love, too rugged for honesty and too dark for science. As there are no blessings which may not be perverted into evils, s,o there are no trials which may not be converted into blesi-ings. The accident this morning to the west bound freight was. caused by breaking an axle on the locomotive suddenly pil ing the cars up and off. Fine fresh Columbia river smelt are in the market in abundance; but they take a back seat alongside the speckled beauties from Hood river. The wreck of a freight train at Des chutes last night delayed the 3 :05 a. m train west to-day seven hours. The boys have been pretty lucky this winter so far. This is the first accident to get a wheel off this upper division for sev eral months. Bro. Brooks has turned out the first copy of the Grant Dispatch. In his sa lute he says : "This town is new and as yet in the rough, but has possibilities before it. There is considerable to be done in and around it, particularly in the way ot roads, and this paper pro poses to work for the best good of the town and of the county." The Klickitat Courier is iuformed that Bennett and Wright, who bought the Hunt survey, contemplate running a road from near Wallnla to tbe coal lields in Skamania county, near Mount Adams, and thence through the Klick itat Pass to Tacotua. This is the hope of Goldemlale for a railway. The green aphis has cost the fruit raisers of Eastern Washington many thousands of dollars this year. It is a recent importation from California, and phould be exterminated by concerted warfare. Some farmers think this can be done by liberal use of the emulsion of kerosene and common soap, while others think kerosene is injurious to the trees. Surely a safe remedy can and will be found, for the interest involved is very great. f . Eight men lately employed in the survey of a route for the. government canal, portage or ship railway around the dalles, between this citv and Celilo, were passengers for Portland , by the steamer Regulator to-day. They took (tie entire outfit with them, and have practically completed the field portion of the surveys. . Lines have been run on both sides of the river, and while the rilitlemen connected with the work have had nothing to report for publica tion, enough is known to warrant tin statement that a first-class route has been located. . - Thofle wishing to see the celebrated Stoddard Art Souvenir call on Mr. Hughes at the store of Crandall & Bur get.

The bird is a fine and very large one, he measured seven feet from ! tip to tip, and could carry off a wild goose with ease. A regulation fox hunt, with a healthy two year old fox, is to be one of the Christmas amusements near Eugene next Saturday. The fox will be led around Skinners butte then placed in a Ujx. The bounds will be placed on the track at the commencement, and the u'T: Wed on. Government Land. trace fees. Then the fox will be turned loose on the south side of the butte and the dogs allowed a chance. It is safe to say Sir Renard-will not be caught, at though they may eventually tree him No horse or vehicles will be allowed on the butte. A pleasant surprise was tendered the family of Mr. Richards on S-Mile the evening of the 14ch. The evening was pleasantly passed in various wavs, and after a toothsome collation the party dispersed. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Low, Mr. and Mrs. Bolton, Mr and Mrs. Albert Allen, Mr. and Mrs. Marion Alien, Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Gil braith.

Welch, Duchesse of Brabant, and several others. What re- giou of country other than Oregon can duplicate this on the 16th davof Decem ber? The Dalles, with its genial clim ate, 116 feet above sea level, nestled in the heart of the fertile and prolific fruit regions of the Inland Empire, sends its fragrant and soul inspiring greeting to those less cheerfully surrounded, pro claiming: Come, there is ample room with us for tens of thousands disposed to better conditions by a change of lo cality. Come, and unite your fortunes with us, where it a delight to live. Capitalists will find no better openings for business in America, than may be found right here at The Dalles. It is those who are abundantly able to enjoy this climate that we would especially ask : "Lend us your ear." Wm. Bethune, a rancher living near Mitchell, was found dead in his bed at The Umatilla this morning. He has been in the city for some time past, rooming at The Umatilla, but was very seldom seen about the hotel until after nightfall. 'He has been an excessively. hard drinker, and this was the cause as signed tor his death by tbe jury at a coroners inquest this forenoon. When he came to the hotel last evening be could scarceiy stand up, and actually fell to the floor, bruising and cutting his face, by the fall. He was taken to his room and a doctor sent for. Everything that could be done for him was -done, and he was finally left comfortably sleeping. During the night his spark of life went out. Coroner Eastwood was notified, and a jury consisting of Messrs. E. B. Johnson, J. Fisher, D. N. Eber sole, J. S, Schooling, J. Burger and . C. Thurman, was empanneled. After listening to the testimony the jury re turned a verdict of death from the ex cessive use of alcoholic stimulants. Deputy Sheriff J. H. Phirman, re turned last night from Salem where he left R. S. Spaulding the insane man, committed by the county court. Mr. G. J. Farley has the thanks . of The Chbomci.e for some excellent blot ting pads, of the latest styles, issued by the New York Life, represented by him n tins citv. The railway track leading to the coal hunkers in this city is pretty slick these frosty mornings, and a locomotive has got to have lots of sand to make the climb.

The re mains will be taken to Portland this afternoon for burial. We extend our sympathies to the bereaved ones. fiie state militia meeting in Portland was largely attended from all parts of Oregon. The Third regiment is repre sented by Colonel J. P. Lucas, Condon ; Lieutenant-Colonel G. T. Thompson, The Dalles. Regimental staff ; First Lieutenant J. F. Haworth, adjutant, The Dalles; First Lieutenant J. S. Booth, signal officer, The Dalles; A company, The Dalles, Second Lieutenant J.H.Buschke; C company, The Dalles, Captain L.

S.Shockey; I company, Joseph, Cap tain F. M. McCully ; K company, La Grande, Captain J. C. Henry, First Lieutenant W. F. Snodgrass. "Having the right to v demand proper recogni tion," as suggested by Col. Beebe, the meeting thoroughly discussed and finally adopted resolutions instructing the leg islative committee to draft and present a bill for the legislature, increasing the military fund of the state from one-fifth to two-fifths of a nitil, and asking for an additional appropriation of $20,000 to meet present' deficiencies. The Tele gram says it was one of the largest and most enthusiastic meetings of the Officers Association that has ever been held in the state. Capt. McCully, in a legislative action speech, showed how it was that the militia proposes to carry the bullet and the ballot in 'the same haversack, making it a political citizen soldierly. We quote from the report: "Ciptain MuCully struck the keynote of the situation when he said that the militia in his and adjoining counties were the deciding element in the elec tion of their . legislators. The Oregon National Guard holds the balance of power in its hands. Too often has the militia been worked for political pur poses, and too little has that ' power been recognized. Men went to the leg islature on promises made the citizen- The Chronicle is under obligations to Dr. J. R. Cardwell, president of the Oregon state board of horticulture, for a copy of the biennial report to the assem bly. It is very interesting, particu larly upon such topics as fig culture, by A. T. Hawiey,etc. We would not have the state horticultural society lose sight of the fact that remarkably fine figs are produced in Tiie Dalles. This year Mr. E. Shanno had them in abundance, iullv ripe and perfected in June. From judicious planting and cultivation of the slips and cuttings of the acclimated and naturalized trees or bushes, if the own ers could be induced to go into the. busi ness, the shade of the fig tree as well as oi the vine could in a few years .become a universal feature of an Inland Empire landscape.
