This is the night when The Dalles

this evening which considering the times
iii doing uite well.
The Congregational club of Oregon

If Mt. Hood has any pride at all she
won't allow Mt. Rainier to make such a
funs and get all the credit for being pro
gressive. Old Hood could get up just as
good an entertainment as its northern
competitor any time if it only would.
Rainier lias had better training, though,
from living in a boom country.
The question for debate at the literary
society Monday evening will be "Wbs
Grant a greater general than I,ee?"
The speakers on the affirmative are Tru
man Butler and Miss Smith, and on the
negative Ir. Sanders and Miss Davis.
Tlie society is prosering, aud those w ho
like that sort of thing w ould do well to
become members.
A sure sign that Thanksgiving is clot-e
at hand can tie found in the notices of
turkey rallies. The turkey has no friends
these days. Everybody is against him.
Wherever he puts his head be is liable
to leave it. The same quotation from
Milton, which the New York Tribune
thought fitted David B. Hill can be
applied to the turkey, "Whichever way
I turn is Hell."
An amateur theatrical club has beeu
organized, and will b beard from dur
ing the coming winter. The club will
give a performance In the near future.
The organization is composed mainly of

and stage manager, while J. T Hamp
shire will act as business manager.
Mr. W. H. Wilson was today ap
pointed acting prosecuting attorney dur
ing Mr. Jayne's severe sickness. Mr.
Jayne is still no better, and his physi
cians thought it unlikely Le would be
suflicieutly well for several days. His
friends sympathize with hiai, and hope
a speedy recovery will lie given him.
Mr. Jayne wished Mr. Wilson to act
temporarily in bis place, and accord
ingly Judge Bradshaw made the ap
pointment. Monday Pally.
The weather forecast for tomorrow is
rain and slightly cooler.
License to wed was issued today to

Koot.
At 2 o'clock this afternoon the selec
tion of a jury to try the case of the State
against Savage began. At 4 o'clock the
attorneys wore busily engaged in ques
tioning s juror, aa to bis qualifications,
nd if they succeed in agreeing upon
him and get two more tonight, they will
have three to start with tomorrow. j
The case pt the State against Savage is j
up for trial this afternoon, the selection I
of a jury being the business in hand.!
This will piohably occupy considerable '
time, indeed we doll be if a jury can hel
ohtuined. j
W. B. llurlhurt, who has U-en em
ployed as engineer in tlie Johns' planing j
mill, has now recovered from nn accident j
ty which he lost a finger nail. lie was

the accident.

after Christmas. Until after Thanksgiv
ing they w ill sell cakes, pies, and most
anything in that line, and from that
time on may be found all aorta of arti
cles suitable for Christmas gifts, which
they will sell very cheap.
The case of the tate against Broad
bent is in such a shape that the defend
ant is likely to go clear without a trial.
The law says that the indictment must
tie set aside on motion of the defendant
if the names of the wituesses who ap
peared before the grand jury are not en
dorsed upon the indictment. In the
case of Broadlient, it seems the name of
one immaterial witness was not so in
dorsed. That the defendant cannot be
tried upon that indictment seems not
only possible, but exceedingly probable.
'Tuesday liu!y.
Thanksgiving Thursday. Get your
turkey and fixins and prepare to enjoy
them.
Brine-ess Bismarck died at 3 o'clock

day evening. Begular dance Saturday
evening.

:10th, at 2 p. bb.
K. J. Lake was this morning appoint
ed official reporter by Judge Bradshaw
and will take down the testimony and
proceedings in the Savage case in full.
We acknowledge tlie receipt of the
Mitchell Monitor, but somehow before
we got to take a look at it it disappeared.
Someone with curiosity largely developed
just swiped it. The only thing we had
time to notice about it was, that the
print was not good.
The Mitchell Monitor, it is said, was
started to aid the people of that neigh
borhood in getting a new county formed
from portions of Crook, Grant, and per
haps Wasco, though it is said that the
county seat question at present is an ob
jection to taking in any part of Wasco.
The people of Harney county, accord
ing to Mr. J. M. Vaughan, deputy
sheriff, are in a prosperous condition,
says the Portland Sul. During the last
six months over fiOO.OOO worth of beef
cattle have been marketed, besides a
large numlier of mutton sheep. Taking
it all together, this inland county, the
largest in the state, seems to feel less
effect of the prevailing hard times than
other more favored localities.
The teachers' institute will be held
here next month, beginning on the 12tb
and lasting three days. Heretofore the
institutes have always been held in the
i turner time, and the present departure
is a pet idea of the county school super
intendent. The results, will, we think,
show that the change is a good one.
There is plenty of room in Wasco
county for one-half the dissatisfied of
Dakota and Nebraska. Our foothills are
the finest orchards lands in the world,
and there is an immense area of them.
Santa Clara county, California, shipped
last year $6,000,000 worth of fruit, and it
was grown on 31,000 acres, or one town
ship and a half.
Foreign newspapers have been shut out
of Turkey , on account of the articles con
tained in them concerning the Armenian
outrages. It now transpires that the
first account iustead of being exaggerated
did not tell half the truth ; ten thousand
of the helpless inhabitants were mur
dered. As a result of the bodies lieing
left unburied, cholera has broken out in
a malignant form.
Mr. M. II. Nickelsen, clerk of school
district No. 3, was in the city today on
business connected with the building of
the new schoolhouse. The bonds of the
district were sold some time since, but
the money only arrived Saturday.
Work ou the building w ill now be pushed
and by next summer Hood River should
have one of the best, most convenient
and best equipped school buildings in
the state.
W. P. Watson of Hood River lias been
visiting Memaloose island, and thinks it
the most wonderful cemetery in the
country. He estimates the number
buried there as not less than 5,000. He
is also convinced that the high water last
summer was the highest that has oc
curred in the Columbia fur hundreds of
years, basing his belief on the position
of the bones on the island that were lie
low the present high water mark.
The follow ing is a list of the officers
nominated at Hood River last Saturdav.
The election for the incorioration of
the town will le held IV-c. 4th : Mayor, i
CM. Woiford; aldermen, F. II. Button,!
Elmer Rand, Dr. Watt, S. E. Bartmcss,
T. C. Dallas, A. ii. Hartley : Treasurer, j
M. H. Nickelsen; recorder, J. K. Socstie ; i
marshal, K. S. OUnger. This is the)
regular ticket, hut it Is probable there
may lie an opposition ticket placed in
the field.
The selection of a jury in the Savage
case began last night and six jurors were
chosen before the panel was exhausted.
The state used one of its peremptory
challenges, and the defense three. This
leaves the state two aud the defense
three of this kind of challenges. A
special venire was issued and returned
this morning, but as most of those sum
moned lived in The Dalles and had
formed an opinion concerning the case,
the jury did not grow very rapidly.
At lie I.orka.
Saturday morning in response to an
invitation extended by the D. P. A A. N.
Co. to meet the delegation from the
chamber of commerce and other gentle
men of Portland, who were to visit the
locks that day, atxmt twenty gentlemen
of this city boarded the Regulator at 7:30
bound for the Cascades. The run down
was w ithout incident, save that a heavy
fog caused a slight delay, near the mouth
of the Klickitat. The Dalles party ar
rived at the Locks about 1 1 o'clock, and
proceeded to make an inspection of the
works on their own account. After an
hour spent in this manner everybody
struck out to find something to eat and
this was easily found at the elegant little
restaurant owned and managed by Dr.
Candiana. An elegant dinner putevery-
one in good humor, and a further inspec
tion of the work was made.
It has been some time since the writer
hereof was at the Locks, and the amount
ot work accomplished in the past season
seemed for this reason perhaps the more
striking. It is claimed by some that the
Day Bros, had an extra lot of men at
work Saturday. Whether this is true or
not, the fact remains that an immense
amount of work has been done, and that
tbe work is now progressing very fast.
The fear that the contractors will not
complete the work, is without founda
tion. Ten per cent of the total amount
earned by the contractors, is kept back
by the government, until the contract is
completed, and as this will amount to
nearly $200,000 it will of itself be suffi
cient to compel the completion of the
work. Besides this the laBt work is not
going to be very difficult. The trenches
are now about completed above the
upper bulkhead, and out as far as the
walls will be built. These walls will be
in place within the next ninety days.
At the same time the excavations are
being made for the terminal walls at tbe
lower end of the canal, and these can
also be speedily finished. All that is to
be done besides this is the excavation at
the two ends of the canal to deep water,
and the removal of the bulkheads. At
the upper one there is considerable work
to be done, but everything is well in
hand and we believe if pushed the works
will be completed next fall, by this
time. One gate is on the grounds ready
to be put together and in place.
The walls for the locks are all completed
and the whII for the lift gate is rapidly
approaching completion. It is a email
job comparatively to put the gates to
gether and get them Into place.
Major Post is insisting upon the work
being completed as rapidly as men can
do it, and the Days are certainly re
s(Knding to the call for speed.
At 1 :30 the Dalles City arrived with
about 100 gentlemen from Portland,
who at once proceeded to investigate the
work, and many were the expressions of
surprise by those who had never before
visited the locks, at the magnitude of
the works. At 3 o'clock The Dalles del
egation left for home.
In closing this brief article, we feel
that some a know led men t is due the
Day Bros, for their valuable assistance
to the D. P. A A. N. Co. in opening a
way for tbe new line of the portage rail
road. They moved an immense pile of
stone at their own expense, and after
the track was laid sent their dump cars,
loaded w ith gravel, from their pits to
ballast it. They have extended every
aid and courtesy to the portage road and
to the D. P. A A. N., and the people of
The Dalles owe them a debt of gratitude
(or keeping the portage open for the
boBt line. Lieutenant Taylor, who is
in charge of the work, has also proved
uniformly the friend of the people.
Among those who went down from
here we noticed Messrs. Robert Mays,
Z. F. Moody, Geo. Kuch, S. L. Brooks,
Orion Kinersly, Dr. Shackelford, M. T.
Nolan, L. K. Crowe, Hugh Glenn, A.
Bettingen, Sr., Capt. J. W. Iwis,
Douglas Dufur, S. Wilkinsen, K.
Schanno, I. I. Burget, A. S. Macallister,
besides several others, whose names we
cannot now recall.
Senator Dolpli accompanied the party
from Portland, and from the way he
tramped arouud over the walla, we
think he was pleased with the condition
of the work.
Just when the canal will be completed
cannot be told, but if it is crowded as
fast as it ought to be, certainly six
months steady work would suffice.

Mikn a Capture.
Saturday night about midnight, when
the so'inJ of the violin was hushed and
the clarionet and piano ceased troubling,
the gay gallants or some cf thciu escort
ing the fair ladies to their respective
homes passed by Mays A Crowe's store.
Suddenly as they passed there was a
rattle as it falling hardware a sharp
shrill exclamation such as an angry or
annoyed person might make. It was
evident that burglars were at their old
job robbing Mays A Crowe. The gentle
man and ladv who heard the noise at
once retraced their steps and finding
City Marshal Blakeney informed him of
their discovery. He at once called a
half a dozen or more citizens to his aid
and surrounded the building, sending
one for Johnny Hampshire to get the
keys to the store. Two or more ruea
were armed with clubs and stationed at
every door or window by which the
burglars might escape. With nerves at
their highest tension and muscles rigid
each boiJ w atcher stood at his post ready
to lieef the first thing that put in an
appearance.
Finally the key was procured, and
Marshal Blakeney and several others en
tered. By this time the excitement of
the watchers was intense, and directly
whet. ? heavy fall was heard on the in
side, and the triumphant notes of victory
were beard announcing the capture of
the thieves the guards broke for the
door to share in the capture. Marshal
Blakeney came out dragging a chain the
other end of which was fastened around
the burglar's leg. A s the crowd gathered
Jim held his capture up, in spite of his
sbriekd, and when they saw it was a rat
that had gotten into a trap set by Fletch
Faulkner, they dropped their clubs and
without having '.he riot act read to them,
dispersed. The burglar suffered death
without the aid of the grand jury.
Kepnrt of the Orand Jury.
Following is the report of the grand
jury as presented to the court last even
ing. The gr.nd jury has been dis
charged from further attendance :
In the Circnit Court of the State of Ore
gon for Wasco County.
In the matter of the final report of the
grand jury for the November term, 1894.
To the Honorable, the Circuit Court,
above named :
We, the grand jury for tlie November
term, 1894, respectfully show to the
court that we have been in session
eleven days, and inquired into all crimes
committed in this county as they have
been brought to our notice, and as a re
suit of our labors have returned into
court thirteen indictments and have
returned five not true bills.
We have visited the various county
officials and have been courteously re
ceived bv all and have been Bhown everv
facility in the examination of the books
and accounts of the county officers.
Wa have also visited and inquired
into the condition and management of
the city jail and csunty prison, and find
the city jail is secure and neatly kept.
Our county jail is well kept, and proba
bly as secure as its construction will ad
mit, and while its ventilation is poor,
and the facilities for keeping prisoners
secu.e is faulty, we would not at this
time recommend any considerable out
lay on improvements, believing that in
the near future, necessity will demand
the building of a new structure for jail
purposes.
We visited the county hospital for the
care of and treatment of the indigent
poor, and found the inmates contented
and happy with their present surround
ings. Our county poor house is neatly
kept. Tbe inmates are cleanly, and
upon personal inquiry found that they
are provided with an abundance of
wholesome food, comfortably clothed
and plenty of bedding.
Having disposed of all the business
that has been brought before us, and
having no further business to transact,
we respectfully asked to be discharged.

A printing office, that puts out an ex

out with good print, clean, newsy and

Court Notes.
Tbe following proceeings were had
this morning in the circuit court :
State against Southwell, continued for
the term.

of all the witnesses examined before the
grand jury were not indorsed on the in
dictment, was filed.
State against E. Martin, demurrer
filed.
State against Savage, motion for
change of venue denied, exceptions
taken and allowed. Application was
then make to have the regular panel of
jurors filled before selecting the jury.
This was denied, exception taken and
allowed. Motion was then filed for a
continuance for the term so that a full
panel would be on hand from which to
select a jury; motion denied. Amo
tion was then made that the court in
struct the clerk to fill the panel from the
tax roll before selecting a jury. Protest
was then filed against going to trial
without a full panel.
State against Dan Maloney ; fined
$100, which wag at once paid.
Iiuaineaa Men's Trip to the Locka.
The Regulator left this morning with a
delegation of Dalles citizens who wished
to view the work at the Cascade Locks
and to meet the excursion from Port
land, which included the chamber of
commerce, the military officers from
Vancouver and Senator Dolph. It was a
thoughtful act of kindness on the part of
the steamboat company to furnish trans
portation to all who wished to go and it
is to be regretted more did not avail
themselves of the opportunity. Quite a
number attended however. The day
was raw and foggy and the beautiful
scenery on both sides of the Columbia
hid from view. We hope this visit will
be productive of much good and show to
the people of Eastern Oregon the exact
status of the work being done. Senator
Dolph will le asked to state fairly and
squarely if the present contract provides
for the completion of the locks or
whether there is any loop-hole for dis
honesty to enter. A full report of the
trip and the proceedings at the I.ock8
will appear in Monday's Chkomci e.
Another Hrnaatlou.
A sensation was caused Friday evening
by the grand jury bringing in three in
dictments against F.dward Martin
charging him with issuing fraudulent
county warrants. Mr. Martin has been
deputy county clerk for several years
and has held the confidence and friend
ship of the people to a marked degree.
Everyone has faith in his innocence, and
all the circumstances, however dark,
will be satisfactorily cleared at the trial.
His friends firmly believe his hands are
free from any guilt, and will standby
him through the ordeal, for such it is
even to an innocent man. The indict
ments were read to Mr. Martin last
evening, and he was given till Monday
morning to plead.
Mr. Martin was the democratic candi
date for county clerk at the late election
and KiIled a large vote throughout the
county.
Otla Natage Mania a Change of tenila.
A motion was filed this morning by
Huntington and Wilson and A. S. Ben
nett, attorneys for Otis Savage, asking
for achange of venue to Sherman county.
The affidavit, accompanying the motion,
stales the fact that a fair and impartial
trial cannot be had in Wasco county and
that the interest of justice could be
better served by the case being heard in
Sherman county. The affidavit further
states Savage was informed by una of
the county officers that a not true bill
had been found against him and that
this fact becoininir known throughout
the city occasioned much talk and com
ment. It is stated also that some of the
county olli -era w ho are intimately con
nected with the serving of judicial com
mands are active in tlie prosecution of
the, defendant and for this aud other
reasons he firmly believes a fair trial
could not be given him here. Mr. V.
H. Wilson, on the part of the state,
asked for time to prepare counter affi
davits and was given till half past one
this afternoon. From that time the
hearing of the motion was postponed till
half past seven this evening.
Hilarious Boys.
Three boys from 12 to 14 years of age
were arrested by Marshal Blakeney this
morning on a telegram from Chief of
Police Minto of Portland. They were
evidently taking a trip without their
parent's consent. When put in the cor
ridor of the city jail the boys had a large
can of sardines, a paper sack full of
crackers and about five pounds of cheese.
Just to be doing something they opened
the canof sardines, emptied the contents
on the floor, and spreading the cheeBe
and crackers over it proceeded to have a
war dance on top of the mess. Marshal
Blakeney soon put a stop to that fun,
and compelled them to scrub the floor,
after which he locked them up in a cell
while the floor dried. They did not like
that kind of treatment, but it wa just
what they have needed evidently for
for some time.
