It .Will Be a House That Is Already Built. Washington, Oa. 8. Admiral Dewey has elected to accept a house in Wash ington already constructed, instead of having one built for his occupation. The admiral was officially informed today of the purpose of the people of the United States to present him with a home in Washington. He frankly exprcesed hie gratification at the tender, which he immediately accepted. He said had the proposed home been the gift of a few wealthy men he should have felt indis posed to accept it, but he noted that the fund bad over 43,000 subscribers, indi cating that it waB to be really a gift of the American people, and aa such' he would accept it with as much pleasure as he had the sword bestowed upon him by congress. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all othe diseases put together, and until the last few years wag supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proyen catarrh tobe a constitutional disease, and there fore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrah Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the onlv constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from ten drops to a teasooonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars f,.r Bn iin it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testmonials. Address, F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo. O, "Sold by Druggists, 75c. 7 During the winter of 1897 Mr. James Reed, one of the leading citizens and merchants of Clnv. Clay Co., W. Va., struck his leg against a cake of ice in such a manner as to bruise it severely. It became very much swollen and pained him so badly that he could not walk without the aid of crutches. Ho was treated bv nhysicians, also used several kinds of liniment and two and a half gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave any relief until he began using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This brought almost a complete cure in a week's time and he believes that had he not used this remedy his leg would have had to be amputated. Puiu Balm is nn iqnaled for sprains, bruises and rheu matism. For sale by Blakeley A Hough ton Druggists. Feed rye for sale at the Wasco Ware house. " Aguinaldo Quotes Atkinson. Aguinaldo, in a proclamation announc ing the release of American prisoners and authorizing Filipino soldiers in the northern nrovince to return to their homes, says: "In America there is a great party that insists that the government recog nize Filipino independence. That party will compel the United Stales to fulfill the promises made to us in all solemnity and good faith, though not put into writing. "Therefore we must show our gratitude and maintain our position more resolute ly thaa ever. We should pray to Ood that tho great Democratic party may win the next presidential election and imperialism fail in its mad attempt to subjugate, us by force of arms. There are some Americans in the Philippines who have joined us because they disap prove a war of what Mr. Atkinson calls criminal aggression. When ottered chance to return to their own camp, they declined." Throughout the proclamation Aguin aldo denounces the "impeiialists" In stead of the "Americans," as in former documents. He calls the world to wit ness that the Filipinos have not broken "the alliance made through Admiral Dewey with the Americans and with the American consuls at Hong Kong and Singapore." The people, on seeing the li,m,an nrisnners. cried out : "We do not want war against the United States; we only defend our independence against the imperialists. The sons ot mighty nation are our friends." that 'An Baking Absolutely 'Plre Makes the food more delicious and wholesome AGITATIONS MAY OVERTURN FRANCE DuSDtrate OaslmzM Beini Made on All Literal Inslitntians M Ideas.

Some rather hard feelings have been engendered among the Umatilla county sheepmen by what ihev term the injustice of having sheep men from another state come into their territory and range their bands during the summer season, and thus depriving local owners of plenty of feed. 80 closely have the ranges been hunted out all throuah the livestock regions of Oregon and Washington of late years that legis latures in the two slates have been im portuned to pass restrictive measures calculated to prevent the bringing of sheep from one state into the other. La shave been enacted by the legisla tures of both states, in response to this popular demand, which have made it somewhat burdensome to move sheep from one state to another. Tn this instance, the quarantine laws in force in Oregon, to regulate the hand ling ol sheep, have been invoked ly 1. ftl sheepmen, to hinder Washington men from the free and easy use of the range here.

This was learned positively last night, although tbe bishop himself is reticent as to his plans and refused to admit anything more than that tie was going to Honolulu. He will, however, visit the Philippines as well, and Is at loted three or four months for bin trip. He will probably Btart today or tomor row for the West, though it is not known certainlv that he will not postpose his leavetaking until early next week. The bishop's mission is an ecclesias tical one. He goes in bis official ca pacity in behalf of the Protestant Episcopal church in America. Some time ago there was formed a commission to represent the church in this ccuntry known as the commission of "responsibilities," and Bishop Potter was made one of tbe mem bers. The object in forming the com mission was to obtain data on the op portunities for the church to do work in the islands which tho events of this and the last year have brought within the jurisdiction of the United Slates govern ment. It is essontially a commission for misBlonary.work, and Bishop Potter has been selected to examine that part of which is comprised in the Hawaiian is lands and the Philippines.

POPE'S ENCYCLI CAL IS IGNORED Paris Papers Say That the Open Hos tility of the Clcrcy Toward the Republic Is Likely to Be Followed by Anti-Clerical Reprisals.

I kept on cnimhuiR mid trying ditlcr cnt sorts of medicines, but nothing seemed to reach my trouble until I ?ot hold of a bottle of Acker's Knelih temcdy. I prayed for health all the time, and my prayers were answered os ton as I began taking this celebrated Kng lish expectorant and tonic. Since mv re covery 1 have told hundreds of sulferers from com;hs, colds and weak lunga that Acker's English Kemedy would cure them. Some of them won't try it, and it docs seem to me terrible, when anyone deliber ately refuses to be cured. There ouht to be a law compelling consnmptivos to take it. Even if they don't caro for their own lives, tho public's welfare should be consid ered. Don't you think so too? I hope such a law will soon be enforced." (Signed) 51 bs. KiciiAnrsoH.

UUOKEK & CO., Priipriitor: Sew York FOR 8AI.K BY Blakeley & Houghton. -Nkw Youk, Oct. 9 The Tribune's Paris correspondent says : The militant attitude of the Roman Catholic clergy of France from the outset of tbe Dreyfus agitation may "be followed by far-reaching consequences. iot since mo clerical en croachnif nts which led to the coup d'etat of May 16, 1877, have the French clergy taken such violent part in active politics. M. Jonnart, the influential deputy from tbe Pas du Citlals, a moderate con servative Republican and a liberal Catholic, who occupied the portfolio of minister of public works in the Casimii- Pericr ministry In 1893, has written a remarkable letter to M. Comely, iu which he points out that the Dreyfus affair has been utilized by the clericals and monarchists solely as a pretext for making a desperate onslaught upon the republic, and upon all liberal institutions and ideas. M. Jonnart's views are en dorsed by the Figaro, the Temps, the Matin, the Siecle, the Aurore and by all the nswspapers that had tho courage t r honesty to espouse the cause of tru h and justice. Clear-headed conservative Catholn 1 like M. Ilebrard, the editor of the Temps; M. Rodays, editor of Figaro; M. Comely and M. Jonntrt, do not hesitate to declare that open hostility of the French clergy toward tbe republic is such that:they fear not only that there will be anti-clerical reprisals, but that when these reprisals once begin thny will become so vindictive that no one can say where they will end. The radical nd social press already demand the expulsion of the Jesuits and all the religious congregations. The clericals utterly ignore the encycli cal which Leo XIII recently addressed to the French bishops, enjoining them in mild academic language to use their influence to restrain the partisan zeal of the lower cleruy. Tbe encyclical is very different from the forcible one of February 16, 1892, in which the pope so clearly indicated to French Catholics that it was their bonndenduty to arcept the republic as tbe firmly established form of government. Both of these papal admonitions are utiheeded, and the clerical organs more violently than ever declare that in order to be a good Catholic one must first of all be "anti- Dreyfusard." During the last five veais the religious congipgationa wiucn were uiBperseu in 1S80 have re-ehtablisbrd themselves, and.adruitly profiting by their former experience, have more than regained their tornier tmwer. lletarn oflhtt Mrtraiiulltan Opera Vo. When the Metrojiolitan Opera Com pany vieiteu our city last mil mey played tn a small house, much to tho reifret of all w ho failed to hear tho cx- cell ntcompany, for "Mascotte" as given by them was perhaps the best opera ever heard here. The manager of the opera house endeavored to secure a return engagement, but it was impos sible. Mr. Kusell, the manager of the company, spent today in the city, and, in company with Mr.Blakeley, called npon our business men to see if the desired number of names could be se cured, be.'ore he decided to bring his company here. As was expected, tho response was general and we are pleased to inform our theater-goers that they are to hear this splendid company in "Mikado" at the Baldwin Saturday night is even better than when they visited us before. We are contented that he is to bring the same comedians, who are a whole show themselves.

Astoria, Or., Oct. 8 The price of fall fish was advanced again today by both the cannerymen and the cjld-storage people. The original price fixed by all interests at the beginning ol the fall sea son was two cents. The cannerymen paid a quarter of a cent in advance of this and called it canimiesion. When this was found out all the cold-storage interests raised the price to 2i cents. Tills price has been met by tbe cannery men, both the combine and other cannoriee, and tody C, Alter has set the price at three cents, which the other cold-storage buyers will probably meet tomorrow. The only fish now delivered are filver sides, and three cents a pound for them is as high as has ever been paid for fall fish. This price about equals thai now being paid on Puget sound, with an ad vantage locally, as the li-h can be packed cheaper here. There is still a good margin, and the price may yet go higher unless the cannerj men uud cold-storaga men shall get together. The run of fish is li:h, and there are- very few caught except silversides. ntorr ut a mv. Tobe toun 1 hand and foot for year by the chains of disease is the worst torm of slavery. George I).

That is himself. No man has ever da dined the presidency, and Admiral Dewey Is too patriotic to refuse to take orders from the American people. His nomination by tho Democratic conven tion will remove all past differences and and unify the forces. The tide in hie favor will be so sweeping and over whelming that it would not surprise me if the Republican convention ratided the nomination.
