Recent sales of sheep at Heppner
aggregate 116,500 head. The sheep will
be driven to Idaho, Nebraska, Wyoming
and North Dakota.
Yesterday men were put to work rak
ing the rocks and trash off the priori
pal streets and hauling the same away,
This is a good move, and the. clean
streets, with neatly decorated hoases,
will add much to the appearance of the
city daring the encampment.
Yesterday evening N. J. Sinnott, of
this place, left' for Wasco where he will
deliver an oration at the patriotic cele
bration which will be held at that dace
today. The exercises promise to be very
entertaining and will be attended by
people from all parts ot the country
Three carloads of bogs were unloaded
. and fed at Saltmarsh & Co.'s yards yes
terday. They were shipped by Mr.
McCnlly, -of LaGrande, to the Union
Meat Co. They were in good shape, be
ing large and well fattened and will
bring 5 cents per pound in the Portland
markets at present.
William Lake and son arrived Satur
day from Kansas, hav ing come all the
way overland by team, says the Condon
Globe. Mr. Lake has traveled about 3000
miles by team daring the last two years
looking for a location, and when' he
struck Gilliam county he concluded that
this country suited him and that be
would locate right here. '
Walter L. Tooze spoke Thursday at

gathered during the
Wasco silver cornet
patriotic music, and

toe single gold standard is masterly, and
he does not find any one able to refute
it.
Word come from Canron Citv that
Jack McDonald, a prisoner in the county
jail, committed suicide Tuesday night,
by taking carbolic acid. McDonald was
arrested several months ago for.asBauIt-

He was sentenced Tuesday to two years

after, on being . taken to his cell, he
swallowed a half-ounce of carbolic acid,
expiring ten minutes later,
So far this season there has 'not been
enough fish caught in the Columbia to
pay for the expense of ' running the
traps. Reports from the lower river
state that the outlook is more cheerful
- than it was a week ago, bat as yet there
is nothing particularly encouraging for
the fishermen and cannery operatreo.
They hope, however, to do better dur
ing June and July, which months are
usually the best for fishing in the Co-
Iumbla.
Word has been received from F. , X
Schoomaker, who was obliged to return
East some time ago, on account of tfbe
sarious illness of one of his. daughters,
that he will likely return to Oregon next
week. Webster Davis, assistant eecre
tary of the interor department, will
reach Oregon next week, and speak at
Silvertan, Marion county, on Saturday
evening, May 21. These will probably
be other Eastern speakers provided
withm the next few days.
The women's edition of the Times
Mountaineer will be out about next
Tuesday, and will" be placed on sale at
- all the drugstores, at the women's head
quarters in Mrs. Briggs' old stand, and
at the Times-Mountaineer office and
at the different bookstores. . The
ladies have labored bard with this edi
tion, and we-hope the. public patronage
will be as readily given in the matter of
purchasing papers as it has been in
advertments, etc., so that the ladies can
. procure more oookb ana mate oi toe li
brary what they wish.
At 3 nVlnrfc VAafpr-fav attarnnnn b flr
- alarm was turned in and in a very short
time the entire department turned out.
The fire started in the roof of the steam
laundry, in the west end, and was dis
covered before it had gained much bead
way. As there was a hose in the build
ing, the workmen immediately turned
on a stream, and before the firemen ar
rived, bad the flames under con
trol. Slight damage was done to the
roof and the carts were injured by being
drawn over the rough streets so rapidly.
As everything is as dry as tinder at
present, everyone honld ' endeavor to
guard against fire as much as possible.
A large1 crowd of young men of North
Yakima met Tuesday ' evening at the
armory. Forty signed the enlistment
rolls and organized another company for
service. A petition to Uovernor tfogers
asked that the members be at once
mustered into the Washington National
Guard, as infantry,' cavalry or ar
tillery, as desired,' arid requested
that if another call for volunteers be
made that they be given the preference,
Dr. E. E. Hegg was elected captain, F,
K. Hiscock first lieutenant, and F. T.
Leggett second lieutenant. The mem
bers think the company can easily be
recruited to the maximum, as North
Yakima,, is very enthusiastic.
On Saturday, June 4th, the Dufur As
sembly of United Artisans will give a
grand picnic in the Dufur grove near
that city. The people of Dufur have al
ways been remarkable for their hospi
tality and ability to entertain their
guests and we can assure all who attend
that this picnic will be a most pleasant
affair, as all picnics at that delightful
little town are. Since all are invited to
attend' there certainly will be a large
concourse of people present from The
Dalles and the surrounding country.
There promises to be a man famime in
Umatilla county when harvesting begins
next July, says the Pendleton Tribune.
It is estemated that at least 400 men
tnat usually work in the harvest fields
have left the county for Alaska and the
war during the last few months. There
is little likelihood of their returning be
fore the next harvest begins, and there
are none to take their places. All told
there are 2000 men given work here dur-
ingthe harvest season. -Four hundred
have left, necessitating 400 others taking
their places, leaving the market ot farm
hands departed. And there seems no
remedy. The Inland Empire and the
entire West complain of a. similor condition.
Sunday's Dally.
A new opera house is beingbuilt at
Moro, Sherman county.
The North Yamhill women are talk
ing of organizing a brass band.
During the last 24 hours the river is
coming up rapidly and at present it

Yesterday D. P. Ketchum returned
from the Antelope country where be
purchased a large number of mutton
sheep for shipment.
As there will in all probability be an
other call for volunteers, onr patriotic
Dalles boys are organizing a second com
pany. At present about 30 young men
have joined.

several months' inactivity, and effected
new organization. Captain V. C.
Brock, who was the first captain of the
company, was again elected. William
Henricks will be first lieutenant, and B.

of Adams county for the immediate re
turn of A. J. Symes to the jail in that

as is always the case, he held his aa
dience spell-bound during the entire
time that he was on the platform.
The Orezonian says the woman's team
from The Dalles played in the hardest
luck of any of the teams, and but for
this would have scored much higher
than they did. The greatest individual
sufferer was. Mrs. Blakeley, of tbat team,
who was compelled to bowl an uphill
game throughout. She did fine work at
Multnomah, but had to contend against
an almost unprecedented run of centers,
which cut her score much below what
she realy deserved.
Sunday evening the victorious Dalles
teams returned from the bowling tourn
ament in Portland. In the first games
they played in Portland they did ad
mirably well, but Saturday evening the
majority of those in our teams were
tired out from bowling so much and did
not come rip to their usual records. In
speaking of the tournament our teams
are enthusiastic in their praise of the
members of. the Road Club who ten
dered them- every courtesy while they .
were at their club rooms.

Institutes or educational meetings are
to the teacher what school is to the
child, and in order that a teacher may
keep up with the new and improved
methods of teaching, or in other words,
keep the moss off their backs, or have
removed what is already there, he can
not attend too many of these meetings,
They bring teachers into contact with
each other, new ideas and methods are
advanced and discussed and the result ia
the old methods by which many teachers
were taught twenty or thirty years ago
are displaced by the newer or better
ones.
These meetings are not only for the
interests of teachers but parents also,
and all parents who have children to
send to school should not only attend
but should take an active part in them
Mr. Gilbert has .always fostered these
meetings, and parents and fellow teach
ers, if you appreciate bis efforts you will
nave cnance to prove it in the near
future. M. Aj D,

in the vicinity of "Kingsley, and after
wards carried on a general mercantile

chosen deputy sheriff under T. J. Driver,

Mr. Kelly has been a life-long Repub

About 10 o'clock Friday niht Judge
Blakeley received a telephone message
rom his wife, announcing the good
news that the Dalles ladies team bad
beaten the Portland Road Club team in
the bowling tournament. The games
were played last night, instead ot in
the morning as , intended, and Mrs.
Blakeley, accompanied by Miss Lang,
hastened to inform her -husband of the
welcome news that four games had
been won by them, with 114 pins to
their credit. .
The laddies felt somewhat timid 'about
playing on a strange alley and with such
good bowlers as the ladies of the Road
Club. , This morning they are to play
the Astoria team, and it. is hoped they
ill have as good luck as they bad last
night.
Another victory , was won by The
Dalles yesterday afternoon when the
Commercial Club team played the
Multnomah Club team. Two games
were won by each, with 15 pins to the
credit of the Dalles team. .
The Dalles is hard to beat.

dark ages. ' The result is not in doubt,
and when by our victorious army and "
navy, we have given the blessing of lib
erty to a -down-trodden and oppressed
people, we shall have enhanced its value,
and established it more firmly for oar
selves. Our . own nation will have re- '
-ceived a new baptism of freedom. W e
shall have aca aired new heroism and
new heroes for future and higher inspi
ration. We shall have placed patriot
ism above business, and valued liberty
u. ore than wealth.
"That your meeting may be a happy
one that'you may renew again the fires
of patriotism in your breasts, as you re
count the trials, sufferings and dangers
of old times, again sing the -old songs,
and in spirit and in imagination drink
from the old canteens, and that you -may
live long and by your lives and
your history continue to inspire the
hearts of young Americans with patriot
ism, fervid and earnest devotion to flag
andLcountry, is my earnest and sincere .
wish. '
