prettily decorated, and everything was
conducive to an enjoyable evening.

business will come tefore the board.
Threshers are all busy, and the com
plaint is made that there are not enough
of them. It will take those in Sherman
county two months steady work we are
told to finish their work.
The weather today has been beauti
ful, notwithstanding the peculiar wea
ther signals this morning, which, prop
erly interpreted, indicated heavy pre
cipitation and high winds.
We sent Torn Hudson to San Francisco
the other day, and then be backed out
nd refused to go. He is still here and
o we wash our hands of him, and, lie
can go or stay just as he pleases.

The sand bar east of town is out of
ight today, the gentle west wind whoop
ing it up until the air is filled with it.
ive minutes after the rain ceases and
the wind commences to blow, the sand
's dry aud ready for business.
Hon. E. O. McCov is bulldimr a ware
house at the mouth of the Deschutes,
nd will have good road graded to it.
This will direct considerable of the
heat shipments from Biggs, and will
ntual!y become the shipping point
'or the western part of Sherman county.
The parties who put up their weather
signals last night carried their joke too
lar in cutting the halyards. Besides au
examination of the articles tied to the
pole shows that in hanging the lower
one the parties committed the crime of
fratricide.
A telephone line from The Dalles to
Dufur would undoubtedly cause the
people of H amic aud the county south
of us to tuke steps toward connecting
wlln It. It would prove of great con
venience, would cost but little, and
should be built.
Captain II. C. Coe and I.. E. Morse of
Hood River, who have been in Sherman
county for several days, arrived here
last night and left for home this morn
ing. The captain puuehased a spendid
pair of horses ai a very low price, and
says that when wheat hauling is through
that horses can be bought in Sherman
county at almost any price. Wheat is
beginning to arrive at liiggs at the rate
of from l,f.00 to 2,000 sacks a day. The
sand has about captured the place, and
two teami are busy trying to keep the
road at the mouth of the canvon and
around the station passable.

The committee in charge of the work
of organizing the kindergarten are meet
ing with splendid success and the matter
seems now assured. From the present
condition of affairs it seems probable the
school will be ojiened the latter part of
the month.
A large steam threshing outfit, in use
in Wulla Walla valley, will be shipped
to Moro on the 22d to help out the har
vest in this county, and in a measure re
lieve the anxiety of producers who have a
bigger job on thoir hands than was ex
pected last summer. Moro Observer.
Some of our farmers are beginning to
get anxious about threshing. With all
the machines in this county, and shorter
duys upprouching, there appear to be
reasons for apprehension that some of
this immense crop will be late in get
ting to the river. Moro Observer.
Professor J. W. Spencer has been do
ing some figuring in an effort to calcu
late the age of Niagara fulls, and satisfied
himself at least that they are 31,01)0
years old, and the river itself 1000 years
older. A much simpler way of discover
ing the age of the river would have been
to open its mouth and look at its teeth.
Sheriff Houser of Umatilla county ar
rived from Prineville last night, having
in charge Charley Mesplie, who is
charged with stealing a horse. Charley
was engaged in herding sheep in the
Ochoco mountain! when the sheriff

'The Capture of Niagara," one of the
greatest of man's industrial achieve

illustrated descriptive article by K. Jay
F.d wards, in McClure's Magazine for
October.

laatern Dragon Weather aud Crops.
The temperature was nearly normal,
and the precipitation was slightly ex
cessive. There were three days of cool
weather, during which frosts occurred
east and south of the Blue mountains.
The sunshine was an average.
All the reports received from this sec
tion are cheerful and flattering as to the
yield of wheat and the quality aud quan
tity of fruit raised. This section has
proved its adaptability to fruit culture.
Our correspondent from Milton, Uma
tilla county, states that the fruit crop is
actually too large, that the trees are
breaking down with their heavy bur
dens. The yield of grain, while not ex
ceeding expectation, is very large.
Threshing and heading made progress
last week and tbe showers which oc
curred on the 1st and 2d did no damage;
threshing was retarded one or two days.
There is a weed in the wheat fields called
by some "china lettuce," which is in
ducing much comment. It grows six
feet high, and it is feared will choke ort
the grain and cause much trouble 'n
future years. There is an abundance of
hay and itraw in the country.
In the interior and eastern counties
the weather was cool several days ard
heavy frost occurred on the 7th. Rapid
progress being made by the threshers,
and grain is yielding well up to expecta
tions. Vegetables and fruit are matur
ing rapidly. Some are cutting a third
crop of alfalfa. Since the rain meadows
have become green, so that all kinds of
stock are faring better and are in good
condition. . . .
A Centenarian.
At the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sol
Durbin at the "Red Barn" corners, east
of the penitentiary, the celebration of
the 100th birthday anniversary o' John
Durbin will take place next Thursday.
A grand family reunion will be the order
of things, in which over seventy rela
tives will be present and participate,
and between the hours of 3 and 6 p. m.
on that day a public reception will be
tendered to the centenarian. Mr. Dur
bin will pass the one hundredth mile
post in life next Thursday, having first
seen the light of day on Sptember 13,
1704. He is enjoying the best of health
at present. The old gentleman settled
in Marion county in 1845, and a consid
erable portion of the time since then
has been a resident of Salem. Statei-
"That Dreadful Woman."
The September number of "Talei from
Town Topics" leadi off with a decidedly
itrong, if somewhat racy, novelette, en
titled "That Dreadful Woman." Tbe
adjective ii evidently used in a satirical
sense, as the "woman," so far from be
ing a "dreadfnl" character, proves her
self something little short of a' saint be
fore the siory is done. The character is
one that would, perhaps, be bard to find
in real life, bnt the story that is told of a
good woman's endeavor and failure to
overcome the resultant effects of a doubt
ful past, and of tbe svibiimity of tbe sac
rifice she makes for her lover, is as fas
cinating as it is true. The umi.i1 collec
tion of bright stories, sketches, poems
and witticisms serves to render the
September number of "Tales" a partic
ularly tempting one. Town Topics Pub

WiaK'i Telephone Line.
Wamic, Or., Sept. 10, '94.
Wamic and Victor are connected by
telephone. Tbe distance is five miles.
The wire is stretched from bluff to bluff
of White river canyon, a distance of 3800
feet. This is the best advance this part
of the country has made for a long time.
The great canyon of White river, which
separates Wamic from the productive
plains of Victor and Oak Grove ii anni
hilated, so far as speaking is concerned.
Mr. Gordon, the proprietor and builder
of this line, is the happiest man in
Wamic today. His store at Victor is as
easy to manage in point of details, as if
it were at Wamic. Sales are telephoned
as fast as made. Now, if Dufur will
build a line from The Dalles to Dufur,
Kingsley and the Wamic country can
surely afford to connect with them.
The convenience and general profit of
such connections can not well be esti
mated. XXX.
Make an Kzhibit.
Tuesday, October the 9th, tbe sixth
annual exhibition of the Second Eastern
Oregon Agricnltnral Society will com
mence bere. Fifteen hundred dollars
will be given away in premiums for agri
cultural products, which ought to induce
a good exhibit. Local fairs are of great
importance in advertising the resources
of the country, and the farmers and
stock growers should vie with each other
in making a first class exhibit. The
fruit display this year ought to be well
worth seeing, and will be it our orchard
ists make any concerted effort. Our ex
perience has been that people will not
bring in their products, but when tbey
see someone eises, they invariably re
mark. "Why, I could have beaten that !"
Now the thing to do this year is to bring
in your exhibits, and make the pavilion
a bower of beauty.
Tench on the Insured.
The preliminary examination of Judge
Gordon E. Hayes of Clackamas county,
is going on in Portland. The judge is
charged by a Mrs. Melcher of conspiring
with Toll Thompson, adjuster for the
State Insurance company, to defraud
her by forcing her to settle a claim for
loss by fire amounting to $2000 fur $700.
Mrs. Melcher claims that by threats
they scared her into settling her claim
for the amount named, $700. Judge
Hayes says it is a blackmailing scheme.
Mrs. Melcher tells a vey straight story
which is good at least until the other
side is heard. If t lie matter is true as
Mrs. Melcher insists, our friend Peter
the Poet of the Klamath Star, wants to
go out under tiio peaceful stars once
more and return yet more ardent thanks
that bis property recently destroyed,
was not insured.
A Small Blaze.
An alarm of fire at 8 :30 last night was
caused by a small blaze in Waggerman's
shoe shop. In cleaning up in the after
noon be had put a lot of waste paper in
the stove, and later some other papers
were placed on top of the stove to dry.
It is supposed that a live coal must have
remained from the morning fire, which
ignited the papers, and these heated the
stove sufficiently to fire tbe papers on
top of it. The alarm was given by Mr.
and Mn. Gibson, who happened to be
passing, and Sam Tburman and J. S.
Scbenck ran down and putting their
weight against the door, pressed it open.
Thurman ran back to the store and got
a bucket of water, and before the hose
company got around the fire was over.
rer Karljr Cloning.
A movement has begun in the valley
towns and Astoria looking to tbe early
closing of the business houses. There is
really no reason why business houses
should keep open as long as they do.
Beginning t 7 o'clock in tbe morning
the stores are kept open until 8 or 9
o'clock at night, or from thirteen to
fourteen hours. There Is just so much
business to be done, and if the stores
would adopt a closing time as the banks
do, it would all be done within that
time. For a few months in tbe sum
mer, perhaps, the early closing system
would not be practicable, but there is
no reason why it should not be adopted
during tbe winter,

The Salmon Ran.
That "whatever is worth doing is
worth doing well" is a familiar proverb,
to which should be added that it is also
worth doing in time. Last summer
ahen the cannery above town was over
stocked with fish, when the fisherrrei
had to lie idle while one of the largest
runs of salmon that ever went up the
river passed by, a cannery to be located
bere was suggested and the articles of
incorporation filed. The idea was to
have the buildings and plant ready to
handle the fruit this fall. June, July
and August have slipped by and Sept
ember is half gone, and nothing has
been done except the appointment of a
committee to solicit subscriptions to the
stock which was done about a week ago.
Had the good work gone on at tbe time
the plant would have been in operation
now. Tons of fruit would have been
put up and the plant could be now run
ning on salmon. The fall run of silver
sides and steelheads is a phenomenal
one. Seufert Bros, are catching 25 tons
a day, the Winans Bros, a large quantity,
and again tbe cannery is overstocked
and fishermen are lying idle. If a plant
was in operation here it could get fifty
or a hundred tons of fish a day if it
would take them. The trouble with
The Dalles seems to be of a piece with
that of the famous Arkansas man with
his bouse. When the canning season is
at hand we have not time to build a can
nery, and when it is over we don't need
one. Thousands of dollars that ought to
be going into the pockets of our people,
through lack of energy and enterprise on
our part, are going up the river to
spawn. That we will get none of the
results of the hatching seems to be a
dead sure thing.
Dufur Doing.
The weather after the rain is now
somewhat cooler, w hich is favorable for
tbe busy toilers in the harvest fields.
The merry buzz of the thresher is
beard on all sides, and the casual passer
by can count four or five machines in
and about Dufur and vicinity.
Col. Laing and bis friend from Port
land is spending their vacatfon with us,
hunting, fishing, etc.
Mrs. Douglas Dufur and little ones
have returned to Tbe Dalles after a brief
visit to friends in our berg.
Wednesday Grandpa and Grandma
Menefee were out driving, when the
horse was frightened and overturned the
bug;y smashing it all to pieces. Mrs.
Menefee was bruised considerably, but
not so much as was feared.
Little Hugh Mulkins fell from a wagon
and broke bis arm.
Mr. Henry Pitman's wrist is improv
ing slowly but it is feared it will be stiff.
Milton Morris, who bad his arm
mutilated in a thresher, and who has
been here for the lost few weeks under
Dr. Deitricb's care, is fast improving.
His arm is healing rapidly and be will
retain the use of that limb, thanks to
our doctor, who is uumistakably a fine
surgeon aud can almost make new limbs
far anyone who is unfortunate enough to
need them. (Ji'iz.

A Sensible Talk.
The interests of southern Sherman
county are identical with the interests of
this sheep and stock country, and nearly
all our wool is hauled by Sherman county
teamsters, and most of tbe grain ueetl
up here is bought from Sherman county
farmers. They also find a good market
for other .'arm produce up in this section.
Notwithstanding all this, many of these
same men, who have lived off this sheep
and wool country, have flopped over to
the populist party, and by bowling for
free trade are actually cutting, or trying
to cut, their own throats as well aa
those of their neighbors. With free
wool our sheepmen will gradually be
compelled to abandon tbe business and
thus destroy the best market Sherman
county has for her farm produce, and
one of her chief means of obtaining a
livelihood wool hauling. Wonder if
these free traders will never awaken to a
realization of these facts? Antelope

Slaughter Hease Burned.
An alarm of fire shortly after 9 o'clock
last night was caused by the burning of
the Columbia Packing Co.'s slaughter
house, situated about a mile west of town,
Quite a number of people went out to
the fire but when the alarm was given
it had gotten such headway that nothing
could be done towards saving it. The
meats from yesterday'! killing were con
sumed, with quite a quantity of hides
and tallow. The loss is estimated at
$3000; insurance $2000.
