ment. Tbe matter will be made the
subject of investigation next year.
The late news from Rev. U. F. Hawk's
little boy, who Is at St. Vincent's Hos

'rom the Sea Beach Tickling Works of
Warrenton. They a ere brought here by
the visiting Attorians and are part of
the "First Through Shipment of Minced
i Clams from Astoria to the Entrepot of
the Inland Empire." From past en
counrers with this delicious b:-valve on
ins native t.eaih, as it were, we har
a strong pieiuonition that the njiocej
article from Warrenton will have a
strong affinity for the editorial appetite
and possibly contribute needful nnnrish
ment to the vacuity where tbe editorial
brain ought to be.
Of the Umatilla delegation elected last
Thursday at Pendleton to attend the
approaching Republican state and dis
trict conventions, the East Oregonian
says: The state delegation, chosen is a
straight Moody delegation, and the vote
of this county in the second district con
gressional convention will he caaV solid
for The Dalles roan. This is one of the
absolute conclusions thut may be drawn
from the result of the proceedings. The
Mocdy interests had been entrusted to
the caref V. J. Furnish, and he suc
ceeded in causing the choice of a dele
gasion favorable to the renomination of
the present Incumbent. The convention
will support W. R. Eilisfor circuit court
judge of that district.
The general committee appointed at

support. The meeting tomorrow night
will be free to all who are interested in
the wellfare of the young men of the
city and in the project of affording them
the opportunity for wholesome and
healthful amusement and improvement
mentally, morally and physically.
Apropos of the reported intention of
"Cyclone" Davis to visit Spokane in the
near future, the fojlowing from the
Helena Herald may be of interest:
"Cyclone Davis is coming to Montana
to address the Populists of the state.
The question naturally arises as to which
branch of the Populist party Cyclone
adheres. For Populism, like ancient
Gaul, 'est omnia divisa in partes tree.
Quarum unam partem incolnnt Middle-of-the-Roaders.
Alia, the Debs Social
ists. Tertia, qui in lingua ipsorum
Fuslonlsts, nostra Sally-in-the-Alleys
appellantur. Haec omnes in language,
notions and nostrums inter se differunt.'
Now with which of these three branches
of Populists will the Cyclone affi'iate?
Will he incolit with the Middle-of-the-Roaders?
Will he herd with tbe Debs
Socialists? Will be cleave to the Salley-in-the-Alleys,
or will he simply let them
inter se differunt? These are grave
questions, and entirely too tough for the
Herald to solve. So we leave the whole
subject for the Hon. Cyclone io settle.
Dissimilia dissimilibns curantur."
Last fall Ben Southwell, of Endersby
noticed that the bees in four bives out of
some forty had died and that others were
giving signs of decay. On examination
be found that the combs in the dead
hives had been borrowed throughout as
if by a cut worm and that tbe honey had
all been consumed. On closer examina
tion he found the hives full of little
worms varying in size from a mere pin
point to three-eights of an inch. He
placed a nnmber of wwrrra in glass jar
and determined to watch the develop
ments. In short time the worms covered
themselves with cocoons like those of
the cod 1 1 n moth. Three days ago rne of
these hatched out and Mr. Southwell
left It today at this office together with
number of cocoons apparently ready
to hatch, where they may be seen by
any one interested in bee-keeping. The
hatched moth la about half the size of a
tame bee and resembles it in color. Mr.
Southwell believes there is no way to
get rid of the pest, once they attack the
hives, but by carefully going through
each hive and destroying the worms by
hand.
Tburaday'i Dall7.
Pendleton has several cases ot small
pox. Tlio Washington Republican state

Chrisman Bros, had weighed at the
stock yarJs two or threw day ago,
twenty-three head of beeves that aver
aod 1,413 pounds each. Thev were
sold to au Astorian party at a price that
would Lave rea'ized over $C5 apiece, but
as there was some hitch about the pay
ment, Chrisinan Bros, sent them back
to pasture and will use them in their
own business later en.
"Who has this tobacco 3.000,000
pounds io Puerto Rico,"aks Congress
man Cannoa and answers : "I will tell
you. The merchants have it ; and I am
told that the tobacco trust of the United
States has it, and sends some of these
poor Puerto Eican-Aoierican people, if
not American people, over here to work
for ' fair show for Puerto Rico." Three
million pounds at 35 rents a pound $1,
500,000. If they could import it today
they would have that duty to pay."
A young Dane, aboflt 20 years of age,
who has been working for Dr. N. G.
Blalot k on his fruit farm on Blalock Isl
and in the Columbia liver, near Arling
ton, was accidentally shot Sunday even
ing last, in the left thigh while cleaning
a Marlin rifle. Tbe bullet passed
through the leg, severing the femorial
artery, finally lodging in the interior of
the trunk. The wound was compressed
by tournequets and the flow of blood
was checked considerably, but before
medical aid could reach the wounded
man he died from loss of blood.
Justice Brewer and Justice Harlan,
both members of the United States su
preme court, stand side by side in in
telligence aud ability with the other
seven members of that august body. In
no particular, however, do these two
men show their real greatness and in
terest in. humanity any more plainly
than when on every Sunday they stand
before a large class of young people in
the Sunday echool and instruct them in
the things pertaining to tbe better life.
With the good feed that this winter
has produced on ranges, says the Lake
County Rustler, it would not be surpris
ing if the output of the Oregon sheep for
the year 1900 would run close to 25,000,
000 pounds, and if prices go to the limit
which they now teem, this will mean
over $5,000,000 that will be brought into
the state from outside sources, which
will be over $10 for every man, woman
and child in the state. Surely the wool
industry is a great thing for the state of
Oregon.
The municipal elections in Nebraska
last Monday resulted in Republican
gains all over the state. In Lincoln,
the home of the "Boy Orator of the'
Platte," they swept everything before
them. In Kansas the Republicans were
generally successful. In Wisconsin
wherever party lines were drawn the
Republicans generally won. In Chicago
the Republicans elected nineteen out of
thirty-five aldermen. In Missouri "the
results on the whole were favorable to
the Democrats." Texas remains Demo,
cratic.

tions, 5; final homestead proofs, 22;

The well for tbe scouring mill Is down
116 feet and further boring has been
suspended. The water rises to within
nine feet of the top and the contractor
is rimming the hole to take in an iron
pipe that will be sunk to the depth of
sixty feet. The pipe Is expected to stop
the waste of water so that it will flow.
The drill went through the same forma
tions that have characterized the Electric
Light Co'a wtll, the Brewery well and
that of Seufert's, opposite tbe mouth of
3-Mile creek. The pressure on tbe
Seuferta well is said to be twenty-five
pounds and with sixty feet of piping tbe
contractor expects good flow, and, in
any event, an a bundant supply to meet
all the needs of the scouring mill.
The Democratic connty convention
meets here next Tuesday. The follow
ing persons are talked of as Democratic
nominees for the several county offices)
For sheriff Tom Ward is thaonly name
mentioned. The same may be said of
Louis Heppner for clork. For county
judge three candidates are talked of,
namely, George C. Blakeley, S. B.
Adams and R. F. Gibbons. For county
treasurer three candidates are spoken
of, namely, II. C. Nielsen, W. H. Web
ber and Harry Lie be. For county com
missioner the name of W. J. Harriman,
of Endersby, is talked of. These are all
good men, and if by any species of po
litical revolution any one of them should
chance to squeeze through, the county
would probably not suspend business on
his account.
Captain Ormsby writes to J. V.
O'Leary, of this city, that he has had as
yet no instructions from Washington
relative to the pasturage of sheep in the
Cascades during tie coming summer.
The captain says: "I see that sheep
and cattle are to be admitted to the re
serve In Eastern Washington. As sheep
are excluded from tbe reserve north of
White river, there is not the shadow of
a reason why they should not go in
south of there. The secre-tary of agri
culture is Toppling all sheep grazing,
and a number of 'Scientist' are to be
j sent out this summer to 'investigate
in repou. ii it not nam io leu wnat
i . . . . ...
the report will be. As soon as I hear
what the decision is I wilt ask for a
meeting of those interested and make it
known to theru."
"Ihe Populists carried the election at
Wallace, Idaho, last Monday." This
simple announcement is a complete
i commentary on the tendency of these
disciples of unrest. Wallace anarchistic
Wallace Populist is the same as if the
dispatch read, "Pandemonium Popu
list." It is a b:ird saying. Alas, that
it should be true!

The Barlow Magnificent Minstrels
met with a royal reception last night at
Lohman'a opera house. Tbe orchestra
is first class and the singing the beet
heard here this season. Judging from
the genuine hearty laughter and ap
plause which it provoked, the show was
generally appreciated. Tbe Barlow
Minstrels are always welcome. Jeffer
son City Tribune.
The Chronicle offers its most abject
apology to Sam Johnston, of Dufur, for
making him the father of an eleven
pound boy when the culprit wasn't Sam
at all but bis brother, Henry. But the
fact is it wasn't The Chronicle's fault
at all bat that of a friend out that way
who bears the honored name of the
prophet who used to spank the prophet
Samuel when the latter was a kid.

' A number of Astorians were recently
victimized by the representative of an
alleged rival of the Standard Oil Com
pany who was selling stock certificates
in a company that had acquired posses
sion of valuable oil wells in the vicinity
of Fresno, Cal. Inquiry by a resident of
this cily, teds the Astoria News, de
veloped the fact that the corporation
had not become possessed of any lands
In Fresno county, and that the scheme
was nndoubtedly one to fleece the
gullible.
A c-owded house greeted the Barlow

The people of Baker City patronize
good shows, but it has seldom been their
privilege to witness a better entertain
ment than that given by the Birlow
minstrel. It is hmh class miimtrels
throughout, and It is 1 1 be regretted
that such performauce as that given
by the Barlow minstrels last night are
not of more frequent occurrence in the
city. Baker City Democrat, Apr. 3d.
Registration is proceeding very slowly,
and according to tbe opinion of one who
has carefully scanned the names of those
who have registered the Republicans are
displaying tbe most indifference. Some
of the old war-horses are rounding up
the Bryamte derelicts w,ith commend
able zeal and if the Republicans don't
"take a tumble to themselves" some
thing may happen to make them sorry.
Remember it cost nothing to register,
only the time spent in going to the office,
and the law making registration com
pulgory is wholly in the interest of a
pure ballot.
Mr. Geiger has sold his interest in the
Ntjw York store to his partner, Frank
French, and will leave tonight for Hepp

warm friends during their residence
here, who are very sorry to think of
bidding them good bye.
Allen Pierson and Johnnie Bright, two
boys about 14 years of age, who reside
on the East fork, furnished the Myrtle
Point Enterprise with a good bear story
last week. They were out for birds and
had with thsoi a 22-caliher rifle and a
pistol. They had been out but a short
time when they suddenly ran onto a
large black bear and two cubs. The
boys, probably not knowing what chanca
they were taking in trying to capture
the beasts with such small weapons, got
at close range and in a few shots dis
patched the large bear and one of the
cubs. Tbey captured the other cob
alive and will raise it.
A Yakima Indian has been "Btuffiing"
the reservation preacher with the fol
lowing yarn, which the preacher re
hearses in the Yakima Herald. Said
the Indian : "When I was a boy a great
stone fell from the sky. It fell near
Wieham falls on the Celilo side of the
Columbia river. It was bright like a
diamond and weighed about 400 pounds,
and was four feet square. On one side
it was hollow like a basin and held some
kind of water, about a gallon, which
cured all the sick Indians who sprinkled
themselves with it. The Wasco Indians
took It awav after a big battle and they
used it to flab with at nights, when it
gave a great white light in the water."

From the Vindicator, Rntberfordton, N. C.
The editor of the Vindicator has had

remarkable results In each case. First,

which he suffered excruciating pain for
ten days, which was relieved with two
applications of Pain Balm, rubbing the
parts afflicted and realizing instant
benefit and entire relief in very short
time. Second, in rheumatism in thigh
joint, almost prostrating him with severe
pain, which was relieved by two appli
cations, rubbing with the liniment on
retiring at night, and getting up free
from pain. For sale by Blakeley A
Houghton.
