cial, and a many Mother asplranta for

sider it.

When American! find the official

give strong indication of the need of a

Gov. Ponnoyer ba attempted to place
the responsibility for the defeat of the
proposed portage railway at tbe dalles
upon our delegation in congress. What
ever may bavc happened in the past is
passed. Tbe future is to determine what
shall be done. It matter little to the
people that mistake may have been
made only : Don't let any more mis
take occur. Th people ot the Inland
Empire have done forever with political
filllbustering about the project of an
opca Columbia river. It ba got to
come, and that is all there Is about it.
We understand that a bill was Intro
duced yeeterday appropriating $400,000

cus it provisions.
It is learned from authoritative source
tbat important change will be made in
tbe telephone system of the Pacific
coast. La the spring several patent
will expire on telephone appliance.
After that takes place, it i probable
that all tbe telephone system on tha
coast will be consolidated in one or two
large systems, these being the Rocky
Mountain and tbe Sunset. A long dis
tance telephone line now run from
New York to Chicago, and work to th
entire satisfaction of the stockholder.
Should th change mentioned above
take place, it will be possible to get
connection in Tbe Dalles with Pendle
ton, Baker City, Boise, Walla Walla,
Spokane, San Francisco, Portland,
Seattle, and all other citie on th coast.
Ws!nesday evening is a busy one for

Tli state military board finished it
labor last evening. They passed a
resolution for the introduction of a bill
removing tbe constitutional objections
to the land providing for the building of
an armory and the paying of rent of
building used for armorie. Also that

Mr. Frank Hampton, on of Crook
county's large cattlemen, la in tbe city
today, en route to Eugene city, to meet
hi family, wbo are living there during
th winter. Mr. Hampton report th
stock on tb range in excellent condi
tion, and the snowfall in that section
wa of great benefit to tb farming por
tion of tb country, aa it give tbem as
surance of fine crop tbit year.
lu CHioxicL beartily concur in
tb Capital Journal suggestion that
when the proper time arrive a history
of W. 8. Ladd, deceased, should be writ
tea. That a maa should come to tbe
Pacific coast almost penniless, possessed
of no capital but a sound physique, a
clear bead for business, and a good char
act and die worth twenty millions ia
a significant commentary on American
institutions. A life of W. S. Ladd would
be a better history of Oregon than any
now in existence. Tbe clear impres
sions of strong characters upon tbe minds
of crowing generations would be far
more valuable than much that is now
taught in the schools and printed in tbe
newspaper. A well written history of
Mr. Ladd'a life would read almost like a
romance. The example of sterling in
tegrity, bis tireless industry, bis high
courage under all circumstances, bis
patient suffering of physical distress
that would have crushed many a man
into nothingness ; these are trait tbat
should be held before tb youth of our
country, Tbe death of our great banker
and business man of this coast is fresh
in the minds of all. The good thing of
over forty year of activity among bis
fellow men should not be lost in the
speedy oblivion following death.

We learn tbat several parties have
come ap from Portland, having in view
theestablishmentof a sanitarium at The
Dalles, or near here. Tbey have visited
aeveral sections, and hav decided to
make tbe location on Cbenowetb, if tbey
can negotiate a purchase of twenty acres
ot land of Mr. Peter Anderson. We
rwnaider this a nice mov for aa institu
tion of that nature. The climate and
climatic condition of thi section of Or
egon are far superior in health giving
qualities to any other division of tbe
state. The freedom from extreme warm
weather ia the summer, or cold weather
in tbe winter, exemption from fog, and
tb prevalence of pure air make thi
a ' most desirable location for tucb
an institutiou, and iu turn, such aa In
stitution will afford a market for fruitt
and other product which will tend to
the profit of the producer. It 1 mutu
ally advantageous, and wc trutt there
may be no drawback to prevent tbe full
accomplishment of the project.
It wa just one year ago laat night
that tb Telephone wa piled np on the
jetty at the mouth of the Willamette,
says tb Astoria Examiner of the 9th.
Last night w a worse for fog than tbat
of & year ago, and having in mind the
accident tbat cost tbe company $10,000,
Capt. Crang and Pilot Larkin looked at
the fog as a sort of hoodoo. At 7 o'clock
the fog was so thick that the light of
vessel along the dock could not be seen
till one wa within fifty feet of tbem.
The fog lifted a little before ten o'clock.
At 0 :4o tbe Telephone blew her whistle,
and at ten she left for Portland.
Waa. Tarrant of Astoria, baa sued the

Rankers' Journal. A bank in a small
town derive profit from the following
sources: From interest on lu capital
invented in bonds; from interest on its
circulating note loaned to the public;
from interest derived by lending a por
tion of its dfM)Rit fund ; from profit in
buying and selling drafts or eichange on
New York and other citle. The same
is true, i.f course on a much larger scale,
with the large metropolitan bank, ex
cept that while the relation of small
banks are local, those of the large banks
reach to all parts of the world. In im
ports and export, the office of the
banker is almost aa important aa that
of th ship or tbe railroad. In amount!
involving millions of dollar, not more
than eight per cent is settled bv the
direct shipment of money. Bill of ex
change are used which, in reality, are
nothing more than methods of barter
so much flour, for instance, sent to
Scotland in exchange tor burlap and
bags. The banker is generally regarded
a a dealer in money, but thi in only
incidental. Primarily hedealt in credits
and instrument of exchange. For in
stance, a Chicago bank received in one
day from depositors $3,400,000. Only
five per cent of this was cash; the re
mainder was made up of check, draft,
bill of exchange and clearing house
exchange.
When the steamer Telephone was
leaving the dock at Eagle Cliff last Tues
day, Max Young, who wa bidding his

several time.
At Baker city a shipment o'f fifteen
carloads of beef cattle Is being fed on
account of the failure of a Puget sound

purchase price of the cattle, the owners
refusing to allow the shipment to be
made without some guarsntee that their
money will be forthcoming.
The Portland Cracker company which
own the cracker factories of the north

erable interest among tbe trade by cut
ting quite a swath in tbe confectionery
businexe, continues its work of absorp
tion, having purchased the candy fac
tories of tbe Bernheim, Alisky Candy
Co.. and J. K. Mathscheck A Co., thus
crushing out competition and becoming
a combination of iormidabie proportions.
A bill will be introduced in the Olym
pia legislature abolishing poll tax ; also
one tbat in incorporated cities there
ball be but one assessment for munici
pal, county and state taxes. Such a law
would no doubt operate well in thi
state. Take it in The Dalle, for in
stance, we have three assessment;
county, city and school. And the poll
tax arrangement a it Is worked is a
fraud of tbe biggeet sort. Waecocounty,
with a population less than one-third a
large aa that of Multnomah, pays more
poll tax than doe the larger county,
bile other with far lea population
than Tbe Dalle have more poll assessed
than doe Wasco county.
