The city it very quiet on account of
all our farmers lieiug busy in their bar
vett fields, only coming in town for tnp
plies, or to have a piece of broken nia
obinery repaired. The crops are extra
ordinarily good, but the price of wheat
is so low that there it nothing in rait

There was a little excitement at the

gerald, the janitor, had Oleson helping
him trim the tree around the court
house and paint the fence. leaving

bit prisoner up from breakfast be
caught on to Mr. Ilrown and took him
in. If the law wat changed to that not
only the fellow who told the liquor, but
tiie Indian who purchased it could be
punished it would tend to stop the
business.

The Oregonian, in speaking of the
man 8chuert breaking the window of
the Umatilla House recently, gett the
tory from U. 1. passenger! who wero
here. The story is in the main correct
but a it came from people who see
things and seeing tell, there is of course
an error in it and one that wrongs the
proprietors of the I'matiHa. The man
broke the windows because Mr. Johnson,
the telegraph oiierator, w hose otlice it in
the Umatilla House, would not give him
a pas to Portland over the D. 1'. fc A.
N. Co ' line. Col. Hinnott it one of the
' most libeial of men, and it i safe to say
i that no hungry nmn wat ever turned
away by him, whether he had money or
not. Thousands of old t liners who
passed up ami down tlie Columbia in the
days when a man might l rich one day
and broke the next, hold the old house
in kindly recollection for tlie lift Sinnott
A Hundley gave them when their needs
were dire. Outside of the cause the
tory it correct, but the cause named
did not exist either in this rase or any
other.
A Mntall faaar?.
Mhnhi. Hcmlow A Kice of Salt Lake,
who are conducting a cannery at that
place, are here with a view to instruct
ing a class in the art of canning fruits,
vegetable and meats, liy the aid of a
camp kettle and .soldering iron they
went to work Monday in the open air in
rear of West' butcher hop and demon
strated what could bo done in the way of
canning beef. We were shown a (ample
of their canned beef, which we think at
good as any F.astern brand we ever
tasted. It is generally supposed that to
engage in the cannery business requires
considerable capital, but these gentle
men have demonstrated what can tie
done by the simplest kind of an outfit,
and say that the cost of appliances nec
essary for putting np 3,000 to 4,000 cans
a day need not exceed $50. (ilacier.

Opea Twrltt Mile. West.
The trestle across Mill creek wat fin
ished Sunday morning at rl:20. Tbit
will open tne road to a point half way
between Kowena and Mosier aa toon as
a mile of track it laid the other tide of
Mill creek. When the road wat being
repaired between this place and Celilo
no rails conld be procured, and so a
force of men were set at work a mile
west of here taking np the rail and
hauling them on a push car to a point
near the shops. They were carried
through the shops, loaded on a car, and
taken to the front. The outside spikes
are all in, to that the rail can lie put
back in a very short time.

Tk. Caw.
We have received a communication on
the tujbect of the town cow, and though
it it well written and properly tigned we
do not like to givs it space, and for sev
eral reasons. The cow question bat
h.ne more to embitter life, separate
families, and destroy the piece and quiet
ness of entire communities than all
others. Like all other question there
are two sides to the cow argument ; the
cow't side and the other tide. Those
who own coat are on the cows aide;
those w ho don't own cows, and do own
gardens and shrubbery, are on the other
tide, and there to stay. I ur corres
pondent complaint bitterly that while
life it made on joyous round of pleasure
for the cow it it tnrned into gall and
wormwood for him. We don't own any
cow, and we don't own any city property,
bat board at the Umatilla House, that
gett itt milk from Vanbibber, who keeps
hit cowl out of town, and to neither
directly nor indirectly are we a party to
the cow squabble on either aide. We
don't propose to be. We battled once
in the newspaper columns against the
cow. An irate Amazonian, champion of
the fullest freedom to the cow com
mensurate with ber happiness, main
tained the other aide of the fight by
word of mouth, and the presence of a
club. We buy our butter. The cow
question it too deep for ut. We buy
what milk we use too frozen. Durn a
cow, anyhow. Next to the horse the
cow it the noblest animal, except a dog.
The cow does not give milk, she stands
still, sometimes, while it is removed
from ber traveling reticule, being pulled
out by the handles. Still we never
could tee why the cow to craved a diet
of choice ropes and valuable shrubbery.
Her butter or milk alwayt goes at the
same price. Columbia river water it
better than all the rosea to enhance the
value of ber yield. Why shouldn't she
run at large if the wants to? Some
people neglect their plants and bushes,
and the cow trims them up. She alto
reminds the man of the house that he
hat left the front gate open, and doet it
delicately ; becauw the always wakes
the man' wife np first, or the hired
girl, and the tell him, and he gett np
and exhibitt hit pyjama to the neighbors
by the light of the silver moon, also hia
temper, the latter can be best teen on a
dark night.
Of course the cow can run at large at
night, why thouldn't the? Doesn't the
chew gum and furnish it herself? Then
why shouldn't the chewa to do as the
please? Of course the cud. If we
owned cow it migUt be different, but
that' the way we feel about it now. A
man gett tired seeing tbe same old brush
and flowers in a yard anyway, and if it
wasn't for the cow, there would be no
change never. We like a change; and
then the girlt ought to keep the gate
fastened anyhow; that's what keeps the
cow and the other calf out. That's what
it does, and that's where we propose to
stand on this question, till the dilap
idated liDcn comet off the shrubbery.
The Depot Will bo Matted.
Mr. lioliert Burns, the traveling
freight agent of the O. II. & S. Co. came
up here Tuesday to interview the citi
zens with reference to the question of
locating a freight and paseenger depot
to take the place d the one recently de
stroyed at Grant. The followingcitizeut
by invitation met Mr. Burns ut the Cen
tral hotel : Messrs. Wm. Van Vactor,
W. K. Dunbur, N. B. Brook. Almon
Baker, Col. K. W. Pike and the editor of
the Sentinel. Mr. i'.urns stated plainly
that to rebuild a depot at Grants was
simply out of t!ej question. The com
pany was determined on a new location
and its only interest was to satisty the
majority of its patrons on this side of
the river. Three locations offered them
selves, namely, Knfus, Biggs and Mur
ray' orchard, aud the latter was ap
proved unanimously as being more con
venient and accessible to the majority
of those who will ue it than either
Rnfus or Bijigs. It w ill be remomliered
that the people on the Oregon tide of
the river, offer in the event of the depot
beiog located at Mnrray'e to fcr.S'd a
good grade up the Jordan canyon, the
foot of which is nearly opposite the
proposed depot site. It it believed that
a grade in no way inferior to the Pretoy
grade and po?ibly easier can be built
up the Jordan canyon, entirely out of
the wav (.f sand drifts, ami possibly a
mile shorter, but certainly no longer to j
the promised depot than the present
grade is to Grant. The location of a
depot and townsite at Murray's ill
be a pleaeant change to those w ho I
have U'en compelled to live and do i
busmehs in the old town of Giant, as it,
it; entirely free from sand drift p, is well j
protected with shade and orchard trees j
aud has abundance of living water for
irrigation and household purposes.
The Hon. K. McCoy, G. W. Smith
and Sam Curson have entered into a
iHind with the tl. I. A X. Co. to build a
good road up the Jordan canyon with
out cost to Klickitat county and furnish
a ferry at the proposed landing, provided
the company move the depot from tirant
to Murray's. Goldendale Sentinel.

The tribe of Improved Order of Red
Men recently formed here it getting
along nicely in spite of the untoward
events that befell it at its inception. Of
course what goet on inside of the lodge
is kept secret, but ttill a story has
leaked out, probably through some little
bird, that shows what hard lack the
warriors experienced. After tbe in
itiatory ceremonies had been performed,
the visiting brethren from Portland be
ing anxious to get away on the morning
boat, it was auggested that a council
be formed and that the whole tribe pat
on their war paint, for th occasion. A
keg of vermillion was left in the ante -
room and the tired braves each pro
ceeded to insert hie hand and paint hit
face that bright red color so admired by
the noble savage. When they were ad
milted to the presence of the Sagamore
and Sachems tbe former gave one glance
and fell in a dead faint, while the
Sachems had to be held by the braves to
prevent them tomahawking the whole
crowd. Some wretch bad changed the
paint keg, and instead of posing aa In

black. '
Small Picnic.
1 A party consisting of Mr. and Mrs. W.
H. Wilson, Mr. ond Mrt. T. J. Crandall
and Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Glenn went to
Hood River yesterday, taking their
lunch baskets, and having a regular
picnic. The party camped at Coe'
tpring, which supplies the water for the
town of Hood River, and w Inch it one of
the coolest and most delightful spot in
that beautiful valley. Mr. and Mrs.
Wilson bad their bicycle with them
and thoroughly enjoyed a ride over the
magnificent shaded country roads.
Hugh Glenn ate seven times besides in
terviewing the steward on the boat for a
lunch, and the last we saw of him last
night he wat trying to make arrange
ments with Col. Sinnott for supper. All
of w Inch goes to show that as an appe
tizer a trip to Hood River is a success.

attack the mother gathered the child in
her arm antl started for the nearest
neighbor's, having to wade Trout creek
on the way. She gave out and laid the

The Origin Hlitl Shrnllli-ance ir Ilk. I'rm--rll-il
!;jrcHlmi.
Ilow many time- we hiive hrnril the
expression "pay the pier." iiml wiid-I'er.-d
vlirrv it originated. I'crhaptt
some of you have hear I the lepend,
but for the many w ho have not I will
tell it. In ull likelihisHl it cmiiu- from
the tdd arid eelctmted t!crm:io legend
of "'I'he PL"1 Piper of ilaniflio." Rob
ert Browiiirv has .y-iveri us :i pretty de
scription of the leyt nil in a ss-m of the
same name. The story tells vis that a
younif niU'.iciaii. dressed in itLtffnbu.',
ciimc to ilamel. a flourishing' town in
Brunswick, and onYred to rid the town
of the rats which hud infected it for so
long-a time. He wore a fancy coat of
many different colors, hence he was
called the pietl piper. The commission
er., of the town jrive him orders to de
stroy the rats, antl promised him a re
ward when he should have done so.
But after the work was completed the;
promised reward was withheld, and
the piper in reveng-e blew his magical
pipe atrain and by its wonderful tones
drew all the children of the town to a
! cavern in a hillside
The opening" of
the cavern win closed aa soon aa th
children hud entered, antl their par
ents never saw them ayaiu. And so
our proverbial expression, ''pay the
piper," sprang from this legend, and it
conveys a warninjr to all men U pay
everyone his just dues, or be on the
lookout for a revenjre as cruel as that
of the Pied Piper of Ilamelin.
