A RESURRECTED LETTER.
It is, to many in this community, no
surprise that the several enterprises,
Btarted three or four years ago, through
which many eastern people' were in
dnoed to part with their hard-earned
savings, or have become involved in liti
' gation over their obligations, have failed
and brought disaster to the projectors.
That business men- in the East should
agree to purchase lands in this locality
without knowing anything of the title or
nature of the lands, except what they
were told by agents of the corporations
which claimed to own them, was some
thing which business men here could
not comprehend.
These enterprises, or schemes, furnish
a good illustration of the gullibility of
tbe American people, a characteristic
which Barn am frankly admitted was
largely the basis of ' his success. But it
was due not entirely to their gullibility
that these investors were deluded
Some of them withheld their patronage
until after they bad sent tome one of
their number to investigate and 'report,
and relying upon the report thus ob
tained invested. It will be of interest
to people here to read at tbe present
time one of these 'reports made by a
man who came' to investigate for his
fellow-citizens, and which were em
bodied in a letter to The Chronicle
published June 17, 1892. Additional
interest is given to this article by the
fact that, as wo are informed, the writer!
is one of the accusers' of O. D. Taylor,
who has been arrested for obtaining
money under false pretenses. Among
other things Dr. Cornell, tbe investiga
tor referred to, says in this letter :
"A number of my fellow-citizens in
- vested in lots in - Grand Dalles on the
strength of its geographical position and
certain other representations made by
the above-named company. True to
human nature, as soon as tbe invest
ment was made many of them sought
information from your citizens who
ought to know, and occasionally a reply
would be received which would throw
grave doubts on the future prospects of
this place and impugn the motives and
honesty of its promoters. As a result I
am here to investigate, which I have
done, and must say that I am agreeably
surprised, and consider the possibilities
lor a future, and that in the near future,
better than any' other point in tbe
Northwest coast. The. representations
made to me by the investment company
I can now verify, and if you have any
citizen who "(eels sorry" for the eastern
investor through misrepresentations of
this company, I advise him to sleep
easy ; taking precautions, however, for
a safe retreat from tbe cyclone which is
due here the day the contract for the
completion of the cascade locks is let.
"wow, i notice the uhrokiclk has a
strong disposition to be loyal to your
city and its best interests, and in addi-
tion to noting its resources, I would sug
gest that you draw attention to this
point as a manufacturing center. The
rapids, just above Terminal bay, will
furnish power for all manufacturing
plants which may locate here. ....
More has been done in the East to draw
attention to this point than many of
your citizens are aware, and instead of
- throwing cold water on the scheme of
the Interstate Improvement Company,
they should give them a loyal support.
- If this were done a beautiful city would
soon adorn the banks of the Columbia.
Whether done or not, there is no power
which can prevent what nature has des
tined, and that is a manufacturing city
at this point."
The Chronicle never "threw cold
water" on the scheme, but it was, and is,
loyal to our city and its best interests,
an1 fn fnaf annrxnnl ci 1 ... n t n nnifi.i.iJ
the public against the visionary schemes
of O. D. Taylor and his associates; and
The . Chronicle's advice to exercise
caution in going into the schemes was
looked upon by Dr. Cornell and many
others as a disposition to throw cold
water. ' -,' '
Labor day was -universally' observed
in tbe East yesterday. In Washington
5000 men were in line., Baltimore bus
peuded business and gave the day over
to parades, picnics and speeches. Our
great foreign city, New York, celebrated
by giving a large excursion to Coney
Island and witnessing a monster parade
by the Knights 6f Labor. I Boston,
Buffalo, Chicago, Indianapolis, and all
the large cities and smaller towns, labor
day was made a day of cessation from
work and loss -of-wages. The-observ
ance was much more general in the
East than on the Pacific coast, where
the classes that did participate were
mainly those not usually called tbe
laboring classes. In The Dalles the
laboring men were too busy erecting
new buildings and making various im
provements to pay much attention to
the day of rest given by law. Steady
work, at fair remuneration, with free
dom from worriment, is generally so sat
isfactory to the laboring man that he
needs no day of rest other than the one
which Divine authority and universal
custom has granted once in each week.
CDS A
AND THE PRESENT
MINISTRATION.
AD-
Mr. Cleveland's administration is
having its hands full in trying to pre
vent Cuban sympathizers in this coun
try from rendering substantial aid to
the revolutionists. We believe our gov
ernment would be doing Spain, Cuba,
and tbe cause of humanity a valuable
service should it intimate to Spam that
the revolutionists ot Cuba would be rec
ognized as belligerents after a certain
date unless the war was sooner terrain
ated. '
Spain's treatment of Cuba takes from
her the sympathy of tbe civilized world,
and every republic on tbe globe would
like 10 see Cuba free. But Mr. Cleve
land's sympathies have always been in
favor of the monarchy as against those
seeking tooverthrow.it, and Cuban sym
pathizers will receive no encouragement
from this administration.
TH CHRONICLE'S POSITION.
The Chronicle was started as an in
dependont paper, so far as all questions
other than the protective tariif, were
concerned. ' It has always been an out
spoken advocate for protection of home
industries, and, under the present man
agement, is a republican paper upon: all
national issues. By the recent sale of
the Times-Mountaineer we understand
the politics of the '.paper are changed
and we are left the only republican
paper published at The Dalles.
. The loss of the Mountaineer to the
i .
republican party of the county and state
is a serious one. Upon national political
questions its position has been sound
and its work has lieen felt. Its long
time editor, Mr. John Michel!, is a clear
and forcible writer, and bis position
upon the essential doctrines ot tbe re
publican party has never been uncer
tain, nor his utterances feeble.' While
we regret to lose the Mountaineer from
the republican ranks, from a selfish
point It should, and no doubt will, be
to the advantage of The Chronicle and
its stockholders. The jmportauce of a
cordial support to the one republican
paper will be apparent, and this should
bring to The Chronicle the co-operation
of all who believe that the republi
can cause is the right one. -
The Chronicle has lost a rival, and
we desire to say to all who have in' times
past looked upon this paper as tbe voice
of a portion only of the republican party
of tbe county, that it is the sincere wish
of the present management to make it
in name and in fact a republican paper,
the voice of. a united republican party,
and an advocate for tbe best interests, of
the entire party in this county and
state. - It will continue, as heretofore, to
criticise and condemn whatever appears
to us inconsistent with tbe best interests
of the county, the people, and the re
publican party ; , but in doing so it will
try to be fair to men of all parties, and
to all men of each party.

old eastern states were supposed to have
passed the quaking age long years ago
Now New York' and Pennsylvania are
shaken up and cracked open, and for
many years the Pacific states have stood
firm. The more we know of the world,
the better satisfied are we with our own
state.
Mr. I.' I. Barget, wbo died in this city
Sunday 'morning, was a man who had
many friends and no enemies among
good people. He served Dalles City as
treasurer very faithfully and acceptably
for the past year and a half, and in this,
as in all his efforts to Bene others, he1
was most faithful and conscientious
The Dalles has lost an efficient officer,
and the community an upright and hon
orable man. His absence will be sorely
felt in business and fraternal circles, and
ahost of friends will think of him with
kindest memories.
There is mourning in Portland ath
letic circles today on account of the de
feat of,the football team in Butte, Mont.
The Montana boys made arrangements
with the weather officials, who caused a
great wind toariae and fill with dust the
eyes of the visiting team, defeating
them in an exciting cqntest. If it had
been mud, instead of dust, tbe game
was played in, victory would have come
to the webfooters.
Oregon is herself again. She has been
having an unusually long pull at the
stupifying smoke, and for a while waB
in a bad way. But she. has quit, had a
bath, and is clean and fresh, ready for
(he busy season now approaching.
There is no country which so rarely goes
"on a bout" as the great state of Oregon,
and none which so quickly recovers
from a slight indisposition. '
another season competition will reduce
"river rates to the minimum, and the re
moval of any necessity to break bulk
between here and Portland will place us
in the most favorable position of any
city in the state, except Portland. We
need, however, better facilities for reach
ing the interior. We have some good
roads into the interior, but they are
few. We need one good road, with easy
grades and solid foundation from here
to tbe heart of Sherman county; we
need a good road from tbe neighborhood
of Fossil; we need a better road into
Kliokitat valley. These will not be
built without a united effort on the part
of our business men and a liberal contri
bution of money ; good road's will never
make themselves in this country. A
good beginning could . be made by the
building of a broad, level and smooth
road from the top of brewery hill to
3-Mile. This road is now about as
rough and trying upon a loaded wagon
as any in the state. . When this is done
we might, with great profit to tbe city,
give our attention to tt)e road up the
river to 5-Mile. That piece of road is a
terror to a Sherman county teamster,
and is the worst part of the road be
tween here and the free bridge.
Brains, money and work will give us
as good roads as any country has, and
when we have facilities by which busi
ness can reach us, it will come. If when
the Cascade canal is opened the capital
which bur business men have tied in the
steamboat business could be invested in
good roads into the interior it would
make The Dalles the second largest town
in the etate withintbfee years. The
transportation business will now take
care of itself; but the roads must be im
proved, or tbe advantages which we will
soon enjoy by reason of tbe opening of
the river will be of little use to us.

The gas is created bv a combination of
