The Chbomci.k is one of the best medi
ums for reaching the vast number of
people in this vicinity, and we relate a
little incident that happened a short

SCOURING MILL ASSURED.
It Not Yet 8elrt4 Bmt Machinery
Ordered.
J. M. Rjssell, a wool and hop mer
chant of this city, who has had under
consideration offers to establish a wool
scouring plant, ha returned to The
Dalles, where, it is understood, the
negotiations looking toward the putting
in of a plant at that place will be closed
this week. Mr. Ruseel says the propo
sition is generally received with much
favor. The Chamber of Commerce of
The Dalles is straining every effort to
provide the subsidy to get the mill
within the limit of the option. It is
said a number of locil business men
stand ready to confer with Mr. Ruseel as
to a mill here whenever he signifies a
willingness to meet them. Oregonian.
Relative tn the above, is all right ex
cept we can assure the Oregonian tbat
Instead of "negotiations looking toward
the putting in of a scouring mill" that
negotiations have been made and that
all but about 1200 of the amount re
quired has been subscribed. In fact, to
further assure the public that the mill
will be built and in readiness to handle
this year's clip is the fact that the ma
chinery has already been ordered and
will be shipped as soon as possible. The
site has not yet been decided upon, but
as severa! different option ) are open for
consideration there need be no fear
from that quarter. As sxm as the lo
cation is determined upon work will be
commenced and tho buildings pushed
to completion. We are going to have a
scouring mill and going to have it right
away.
An Old Alan' OLxprvatlou.
The following is an extract from a
letter received in The Dalles, written by
a man who lacks but twelve years of
having lived the whole of the nineteenth
century and has always been a close
observer of passing events. He writes:
"The South African war Is the most
far-reaching war in tho history of the
British empire, and is likely to wind up
the longest and most auspicious reign of
England's sovereign the purest, most
beloved and most dignified of all that
ever graced the throne with disaster to
her arms, dishonor to her ministers, ex
haustion to her exchequer and the dis
integration of her power, both in the
east and the west of the old world. The
great day of judgment has come to
England. She may put down the Boers
and assert dominion in South Africa,
but not until she bas conscripted and
put under arms the largest army in the
world, and laid in a warrior's grave the
best muscle and tiie best blood of an
empire upon which the sun never sets.
"This war I conceive to be the most
suicidal as well ns tbe biggest of all the
wars in which England on the one side
was the sole belligerent, witii tbe
sympathies of all the non-English speak
ing world ln Europe, in Asia and
in America against her, and not a few of
tbe English speaking people in America,
in Ireland and in all her conquered
provinces. Terror sits enthroned upon
tbe hearts of the ruling powers, and of
tbe people of England today as the
sequence of a war that onght not to be ;
a war that might have been, and ought
to have been prevented by peaceful
arbitration."

The house that greeted tie Shaw com
pany last night was enormous. Since
the previous night the management had
a gallery built in the rear ot the hall to
accomodate the immense throng which
this popular troupe attracts.
The play "In Mizzouri" is a peculiar
one, dopicting life in the rural districts
of' Pike county, Mo. The backwoods
dialect, the iuake-up of the characters,
and the situations proved that the Siiaw
company had all the details down to a
fine point. The stage settings, while of
course were not handsome, were in taste
with the play and could not have been
improved In any manner.
Each character proved to be just the
right person in tbe right place. Sam T,
bnaw as "Joe Vernoo," tbe village
blacksmith, was indeed as clever as
could be desired and brought forth much
applause. Louise Carter as "Mrs. Ver
non" was a "powerful good character,'
and portrayed her part in a pleasing
manner. Mrs. Nellie Maine Sbaw, as
"Libette Vernon," brought down the
house on numerous occarions by her
easy ' and natural manner upon the
stage, considering the difficult role she
played. M. J. Ilooiey as "Dave," the
lover of "Libette" and the man who was
looking tor "a steady job," was one of
the best characters In the piece. H. W.
n:lk.i ii Vi
vjiiucii, mm - jim Kaaourn, made a
clever sheriff, while Jennie Kelton as
"Kate Vernon," the seminary graduate,
was all that could be desired. Al Hal-
lett as "Robt. Travers," the villian, had
little to do, but did that little well.
Xbe other characters were of minor
importance, but were up to the standard
and did their turns in such a way as to
impress the audience with their ability.
The orchestra of the Shaw company is
one of the best we have had the pleasure
of listening to in the citv. The music
is claatical and up to-date, and most
pleasing. To listen to it is worth the
price of admission alone.
Fruit Grower Meeting.
At a recent meeting of Beveral promi
nent fruitgrowers held at Corvallis. it
wns decided to hold a fruitgrowers con
vention at the chamber of commerce
building iu Portland on the 7ih and 8Ji
of Match. Everyone interested in the
fruit iialiietry is invited to ho present.
The fallowing is the resolution that'was
passed :
It is the consensus of opinion of this
convention that the futurn progress of
the fruit industry of the Pacific North
west necessitates the organization of
fruitgrowers into permanent associa
tions for the preparation and marketing
of their products. Under present, meth
ods the grower is not a factor in de
termining the price which he bIirII re
ceive for his fruit, nor what the con
sumer shall pay, knowing as we do that
me individual competition amongst
growers is responsible for this condition.
. We are firmly convinced that the true
remedy for this evil is co-operation in
marketing.
To this end we therefore recommend
that the great prune industry of the
Pacific Northwest shall be oiganized in
to one general association, representing
as much as seventy-five (75) percent of
the total product.
We would also recommend that local
organizations be formed for the purpose
of education in improving the standard
of quality, for uniformity of drying,
grading and packing.
We therefore earnestly recommend
that a meeting cf the producers of dried
fruits in the Pacific Northwest be called
in convention at Portland, on Wednes
day and Thursday, March 7th and 8tb,
for the purpose of effecting such perma
nent organization as may be determined
at that time for furthering the uniform
marketing of the prodMcts of tbe Pacific
coast, and in order that, these plans be
carried ont, we recommend that a com
mitteenl prominent fruitgrowers he ap
pointed, one grower from each fruit dis
trict in tbe Pacific Northwest, to take
mis matter in hand and secure an or
ganization at that meeting.

The young woman at the St. Charles
hotel who says her name is Miss Louise
David bas not always gone by that name
says the Oregonian. A short time ago,
when she came down the river by the
O. R. A N., stopping at Walla Walla,
Wallula, Pasco and Arlington, she said
her namo was Hilda Hobson,' and that
she was a cousin of Lientenant Hobson,
of the United States navy. Her leg
was not broken then, and she required
the use of no crutches in walking. . She
also stated she had been in the Philip
pines, and had received four gunshot
wounds in her arm. Her arm was in
bandages then. She easily imposed on
the people of the inland town?, who
contributed liberally to her support.
Several of the railroad men looked at
her yesterday and said that the Louise
David at the St. Charles hotel and the
Hilda Hobson who came down the O. R.
A N. road were Identical. She is still at
the St. Charles.
At a meeting of tbe Portland chamber
of commerce yesterday, the matter of
securing further improvements at the
mouth of the Columbia river was brought
up. It is desired to provide a new sys
tem of jetties to scour out the sand at
the mouth of the river, until a depth of
40 feet at low tide is secured. For this
purpose an appropriation of $253,000
will be required, and as there is to be no
river and harbor appropriations thisyear
it will he necessary to tack it on to the
sundry civil bill. The needs ol tho
great Oregon waterway will be communi
cated to the Oregon delegation in con
gress, where it will receive earnest at
tention, and an effort will be made to
secure the co-operation of the chambers
of commerce of Astoria, Salem, Tbe
Dalles and perhaps Boise and Walla

Once more has the ladies' theory that
gentlemen cannot enjoy themselves
without the presence of the fair sex,
has been disproved. At least the mas
cuius soclahilius Wednesday evening at
the home of C. W. Riddel! settled that
much - vexed question. The evening
was most pleasantly employed in p'aying
games. Just before lunch the guests
tried tht'.r luck at a novel guessing
game. Mr. George Ruch took first
prize. At eleven o'clock the guests sat
down to the table and drew walnuts
within which were quotations. Wow
onto him who (ailed to guess the author
for he was liberally daubed with lamp
black and flour. After lunch was
served all J ined In staging col!ag

monial of Mr. C. D. Glass, an employ
of Bartlett A Dennis Co., Gardiner, Me.
He says: "I had kept adding to a cold
and cough in the winter of 1897, trying
every cough medicine I heard of without
permanent help, until one day I was in
the drug store of Mr. Houlehan and he
advised me to try Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and offered to pay back my
money if I was not cured. My lungs and
bronchial tubes were very sore at this
time, but I was completely cored by
this remedy, and hare since always
tnrned to it when 1 got a cold, and soon
find relief. I also recommend it to my
friends and am glad to say it is the beet
of all cough medicines." For sale by
