Pillar Rock cannery has packed this Beaeon about 26,000 cases of salmon, which is said to we the largest pack made on the Columbia this season, and the Laird of Dunmore, resident partner and manager, walks around in the al leys between the piles of cans and looks as if he did not care whether the school kept or not. Mr. Smead, of the Smead Fruit Drying Company, of Blalock, met the fruit growers of th3 Mosier neighborhood last Monday and made arrangement to erect fruit dryer at that place in time to handle this year's crop. They estimate their prune crop at 225 tone. Mr. Smead gets a bonus, but bow much we could not learn. Dick Payette, a Warm Springs Indian, passed through town today on the way to Portland, in custody of Chief of In dian Police L. M. Hayden and Deputy United States Marshal Roberts. Dick is charged with cattle-stealing. It is alleged that be drove cattle belonging to other Indians off the reservation and sold them to white people. Constable Hill went out to Wapinitia yesterday to arrest Mat Busic, a farmer of that neighborhood, who is chargad with having killed an elk in the mountains west of Wapinitia nearly a year ago. The complaint was filed by Henry Snipes, deputy game warden, and Chief Warden L. P. W. Quimby in sisted on the prosecution, notwithstand ing the long time that has elapsed since the alleged commission of the crime. P. T. Knowles, traveling salesman for the Dufur weeding machine patented by M. J. Anderson, ws in town today after completing a three months' tour through Eastern Washington and parts of Idaho. He reports having sold a large number of machines and that they are giving good satisfaction to the pur chasers. Mr. Knowles will start in a few days on a three months' trip through Southern Oregon and Northern California in the interest of tbe S. B. Medicine Company, of Dufur, Felix Bajavan, French Canadian, who was in the employ of the American Company in 1843, when he was a lad of 17 and was connected with pack trains between The Dalles and Fort Simcoe, Walla Walla, the Bitter Root coontry, and other places north and east, from 1811 to 1858, is in the city calling on the few acquaintances that are left of these long by. gone years. Felix has been prospecting Qf late yeais in the region of the John. Day, with varying fortune. Mr. Smead, of the Smead Fruit Dry ing Company of Blalocks, has ofTsrod to titer into a contract with the business men of The Dalles to put up a fruit dryer at this place, of eight t ) ten tons ler day capacity, in lime to take care of "'is year's crop, on condition that they agree to pay him a bonus of $1500, or "lake satisfactory arrangements for the I'synient of this sum as soon as the I'lant dull be in operation. Mr. Smead was here a few days ago looking over the Celd with a view to shipping the green 'ruit from hers to his dryer at Blalocks. He says with a plant at The Dalles he could afford to pay at least a fonrtb ot a cent a pound more for prunes than he conld pay if he shipped them green, at it takes three tons of green prunes to make one of dried. Mr. Smead esti mates that The Dalles will have 300 tons ot prunes to dispose of this year, and possibly 400. Without a dryer the greater portion of thtae will be allowed to go to waste. An effort is being made this afternoon lo Mise the bonus, and Thb Chxoniclx devoutly hopes it may succeed. There appears to be no doubt that Mr. Smead has control of all the money be may need for handling fruit. The regular quirterty teachers' exam ination commenced at the court bouse this morning with twenty-one applicants for county cert ideates and three for state. The board of examiners consists of Superintendent C. L. Gilbert, Pro fessor J. T. Neff, principal of The Dalles High school, and Professor C. D. Thoinp son, principal of tbe Hood River schools, All the applicants save one are of the gentler sex. Tbe lone exception gradu ated from Oberlln college, Ohio, in tbe 50s and is now principal of the Wamic schools. Thursday's Daily It has been raining out at Shaniko till the Leader 'man wishes the clouds would lift and the sun again appear, One of the most lonesome peisons in the world is well-behaved man when his family is out of town for the summer. The Telegram says campers on the Washington side of the middle river are returning to Portland by the hundreds on account cf the smallpox scare. C P. Huiitington, the railroad oi ag nate, thinks the government should put one man, heavilv armed, on every train to prevent hold-ups and train robberies Rain commenced falling here yester day morning at about 5 o'clock and con tinned till the middle of the afternoon. The amount of precipitation was slightly over half an inch. So far the army worms have not put in an appearance in Eastern Oregon counties. The farmers in some parts say there is a small worm injuring the fruit trees, but that it hears no resem blance to the army worm. Lem Burgess, of Antelope, this fore noon sold his clip of wool, consisting of some 30,000 pouuds. The price was not given out, but it is said to bave been over 14 cents. It was bought by Mr, Russell, of the scuuriug mill. The Dalles is getting a touch of the Belgian bare fever too. Thirty of the Utile animals arrived here today by express from San Jose. They belong to a number of Dalles parties who clubbed together for their purchase and ship tueot. Chicago packers yesterday were asked by the government to furnish 2,000,000 pounds of meat, within thirty davs, for the American soldiers in the Orient, This is said to be the largest requisition overissued by the government of th United States. Up to the hour of going to press noth ing definite had ten d'lne in the mat ter of raising the $1500 bun on asked by Mr. Smead foi the erection of a frin dryer at this place. The proposition, however, has not been abandoned and may yet be acted on. The Oregon Prect Association will meet this year at Ashland, Or., on Sep tember 19th and 20ih. Before proceed ing to the meeting place they will be gueatt oi the Agricultural State Fair Association at Salem on 'he 18lh, and thence proceed to Ashland When wit is kind as well as playful, when information know how to he si lent, as weil as how lo speak, when good will is shown to those who are ab sent as well as tot hope ho are present, we may know thafwe are In good soci ety. Ladies Home Journal. The farmers that were in town today from the conn try south of here all say that the rains yestei da v were a benefit rather than an injury. They did no material damxge to grain, hut on the contrary, laid the dust that had become very annoying and did considerable ben efit to the roads, The boss of the weather bureau down in Portland is making a irrand success of his weather pred ctions. A tab kept on them for the past, eight days finds that they were correct ju one time. Yesterday's forecast, for example, was "fair and wanner," whereas it rained dogs and cat nearly nil day and was cool enough for the ide of November. Pat Fagan is having hi elor building, on the southwest corner of Third anrl Federal, transformed into a ten-mom dwelling, which will probably he necn pid on completion bv Tom Ward, of Ward & Robertson. The building has been raised about five feet and a stone basement is being built under it. At soon as the building is finished the erec tion of another dwelling on the lot im mediately west will he commenced. Two travding young men, who are fancy trick bicycle riders, gave an exhi bition of their fkill on the corner of Third and Washington this forenoon and another at the omer of Second an.l Washington. They attracted large crowds and performed several new tricks that were very cleverly executed. They announced that they would give another exhibition at 7 o'clock at the corner of Second and Washington. They claim to be student of Stanford Univer sity, California, and are taking th m.ans of raiting funds to procure tbe education. Matt Busic, of Victor, arrived in tow thit morning io charge of Const bl Hill, charged with having killed an el about a year ago. Matt, who it a quiet law-abiding citiieu, indignantly deuiet the charge and proposes to tight th matter to the bitter end. He promptly retained H. S. Wilton and, on bein arraigned before Justice Brownhill pieaaea not guilty ana the trial was Gxed to take place tomorrow morning He was discharged on giving bonds for his appearance in th sum of $100. Referring to an item that lately peared in the Oregonian relating to a alleged survey for an extension of th Colombia Southern from Shaniko, the Leader tart that A. E. Hammond, chief engineer of that road, who hat hi head quarter at Shaniko, know nothing of any extension of hi company' line, and that if the Columbia Southern had been extended as many times as th papers of the state had said it was go ing to be extended, it would bave by this time been across the continent Kansas City has a judge with th wisdom of Solomon. He recently ren dered a decision that will interest young men who take their girls out riding, young man hired a team lor that pur pose, telling tbe liveryman the fact, an in the course of the drive the team ra away and demolished tbe buggy. Th owner sued the young mau for damages and the judge gave the verdict to the young man, saying it was the duty of the liveryman, knowing that he was going lo take a girl out riding, to give him a team thit could be driven with one band. A man coming up from Portland a few days ago, tays the Albany Herald, said he was looking for a steady job. H had been working in Eastern Oregon where he said the work wasn't steadv enough, so he threw up a job he had there and started for the valley. He began work at 4 o'clock in the morning stopped a few minutes for breakfaBt worked until noon, stopped a ehort time for dinner, worked until 6 o'clock stopped foi supper, and then worked until 9:30, when they quit work entire' ly until 4 o'clock next morning. What he wanted was a place where there was work all the time. The Abilene, Kansas, Reflector of August 2nd tells the following of one George Ogden, formerly a coal dealer of that town, but no a drummer for Kansas City firm : "While in the lobby of an Abilene hotel the other day, Ogden cast reflections on the character of the soldier boys who went to the Philippines and expressed a hope that they would meet with a bad f-ite. A number of members of the 20th Kansas and others corralled him in front of Hodge Bros, store that afternoon, sent for F. B Bearce who testified as to what Ogden said and they gave him his choice to apologize or take the consequences. He got up on a plow, took off his hat and abjectly apologized to the boys. He would have had a mighty rough time if he had not. This is a patriotic town." Gideon M. Backus, a pioneer of 1848, died at Hood River yesterday morning, after an illness of about three months, He was well known in this state, having settled in Linn county when he first came to Oregon, living on a farm there for twenty-three years. He sold out there and twenty-three years ago went to Hood River, where be has since re sided. He was born in Butler county, Ohio, in 1817, but came to Oregon by ox team in 1848 from Indiana. He left eight children, among whom is a daugh ter, Mr'. F. A. Mauzey, tf Hood River; Judge Backus, of Spokane; Aaron and Vees Backus, of Idaho; Joe Backus, of Hood River; Mrs. E. S. Olinger, of Hood River; Mrs. Vince Circle, of Paulina, Or., and Mrs. Lucinda Kyger, of Tucson, Ariz. The burial will take place at Hood River tomorrow S. Ban and N. G. Seaman, partners doing business under the firm name of Ban A Seaman, yesterday filed in the clerk's office of this county a lien for -J0.8G5.80 on that part of the Columbia Southern railroad lying between Moro, in Sherman county, and Shaniko, in Wasco county, forty-six miles, or there abouts, in extent. The hen is to secure payment for tracklaving and surfacing the part of the road mentioned, which was donn nnder a contract made be tween Ban & Seaman and A. E. Ham mond and Archie Mason, whom Ban A Seaman claim to have been the agent of the Columbia Southern and, in the matter of sub-letting the contract for he work done, to have acted with the knowledge and consent of the Columbia Southern Company. The total amount of Ban A Seaman's claim was $32,365 86, on which they received on account $11,- 500. It should be said that the greater portion of the balance claimed under the lien is for extras and alleged "extra c ist and expense of doing the work by reason of Interference and unjust treat ment of claimants" by the officers of the company. Friday's Pally. Salmon fishing closes for the season tonight at 12 o'clock. Tomorrow's the day when $1.25 and $1.50 knee pants go for only 87 cents at A. M. Williams A Co.'s. Dr. Eahelman this morning received notice of the death at Litchfield, Illinois, of his maternal grandmother, Mrt. Lu cinda Cove, aged 92 years, 6 months and 22 day. Lace curtain can be bought very cheaply at A M. Williams A Co.' to morrow. Aopteciative housekee jers will te there in p'.euty, therefore be on time. a ratio j ot one draft horse were hipped this morning from the Salt- marshe stock yardt to the Sound mar ket. there were purchased iu Wheeler and Crook counties. The trial of Matt Bnsic for the alleged killing of an e k, which wa fixed for 2 o'clock this afternoon, has been pott poned till tomorrow to enable Game Warden Quimby to he present. Wedueeday the sheriff and health officers of Klickitat county made an In vestigation ot the smallpox case in the settlements east of White Salmon river, and placed guards at each house where the disease is known to exist. Georg MiLod, of Kingsley, while in town today said that rail wheat on the Tvgb Ridge was lifrning out to meet the highest expectation. He believes that the average for the Ridge wilt be forty bushels to the acre, the largest yield the the Tygh Ridgera ever had. The Glacier tays the White Salmon farmers whoso crops of peaches and to matoes are just ripening will be nnable to ship their produce now that that district is under quarantine. This it certainly hard luck mid mean the lost of several thousand dollar. A forest fire, which broke out at tbe Oregon Lumber Co.' sawmill at Cheno- welh last Friday, destroyed J. Moody's dwelling house and contents, and the Macdabee lodge hall. About forty of the mill hands were kept busy prevent ing the burning of tbe boarding house. A party of eight or ten men and youths while Indulging last evening in a little good natured scuffling in front of Julius Fisher' barbei shop accidentally broke one of the big lights in the window. The racket made by the broken glas frightened the Austrian count out of a week's growth. Henry Stegman, of Centerville, came to to town today to meet his son, Henry a lad of 12 years, who has been a pupil of St. Joseph's Academy, Independance, Iowa, for the past fiye year. Mr. Steg. man intends to rent a house in The Dalle and have hi children attend school here during the coming fall and winter. D. L. Knebel left at this office today a magnificent peach that was grown on a little tree that he planted a year ago on his lot on Jackson street, in a sand bed that a stranger would not credit with the capacity to produce anything that grows out of the soil. The little tree produced twenty eight of these peaches. Judge A. L. Miller, of Vancouver, was a passengT on this morning's stage for Goldendale, where he goes to look after his political fences. The judge is a candidate for the superior judgahip of Clark, Cowlitz, Skamania and Klickitat counties, to succeed himself. He has strong competitor in the person of W. B. Presbv, of Goldendale. The repnbli can convention lor Klickitat countv meets at Goldendale tomorrow. At a meeting held in Portland yester day Vice-President Bennet, of the Na tional Wool-Growers' Association, an nounced that he was in favor of holding the next annual convention in Portland and would present the matter to the as sociation and be ready to announce their decision by September 1st, Resolutions favoring the holding of the convention in Portland and extending a cordial in vitation to the association were passed. The expense of getting up such an ex hibit for the Portland carnival as will do justice to Wasco county is considera ble, and the local Elks who are manag ing the affair and who have no more Interest in the exhibit than any other class of citizens, apart from farmers and fruit men, will ask the businees men ol The Dalles to help them bear part of tbe burden. This is only fair and reasona ble. We understand that a committee of tlks will, at an early date, call on tbe citizens for help in this important work. John Koberg should hang out his ingle and advertise as an expert sur geon, says the Hood Kiver Glacier. About two months ago three of his fine ertey calves tix months old were caught on the railroad track and each ad a leg broken by a passenger train. The bones of their legs were broken lean off and their legs were dangling. Ie immediately went to work to set the fractures, and with the assistance of is wife, succeeded on all three. After three or four weeks the bandages wero removed, and now the calves seem to be 11 right. It is a shame and disgrace that the fruit men of this section do not bave tome organization lor the purpose of marketing their fruit. A Mill creek ruit man got the returns yesterday from ten boxes of pears that he shipped to Portland about ten days ngo. They netted him lees than five cents a box. The commission man w ho handled them a not necessarily to blame. They were hipped to a glutted market and the hipper had no means of knowing what e was doing till it was too late. With properly conducted shipping organir.a- lon a case oi this kind need not occur. It would be the business of the organi zation to know the condition of the market before a shipment was made. But these things happen here every day in the week. Car load of peach plum and prune were thipped from here last year that were never heard from. Five or tix carload of peach plum are said to have been thipped thit season, the returns from which amounted, practic ally, to nothing. No wonder fruit men get ditcouraged. Any business con ducted as the fruit business It often con ducted here, would go to the dog in no time. Brome grass experiments have aroused more interest among the agri cultural classes in the Northwest than anything tried in that line before. This grass was introduced in Oregon and Washington by R. C. Judson, industrial agent of tbe O. R. A N. Under the di rection of the traffic department of that railroad, Mr. Judson has made a nuin her ol tests upon the eiperimenta' farms. These experiments proved tha it would grow upon semi-arid lands that it was a good feeder ; that it would serve to bind sandy soils together, and possessed other qualities which made it specially fitted for the soils of the arid section of the Northwest. A good illustration of what a small irgmuiaie expeuuiture ol money may sometimes eueci in me saving of prop erty from destruction by fire is furnished by a little incident that happened at an early hour yesterday morning. When gentleman, who is employed down town most of the night, reached his home on the bluff he noticed a fire that had broken out In a lot of rubbish back of the postofUce. He immediately rang up the Seufert A Condon central office and la two or three seconds the little red light at Nielsen's corner told Night watch man Alisky that th re was some thing wrong. In about as short a time as it takes to tell it Alisky was at the fire and bad it stamped cut. In this particular case the tire in question in volved no great risk, but then it might bave been far otherwise. A little judicious expenditure ot money on a new tower, and a new bell on the bluff might, too, effect a great saving some day. George P. Higlnbotham, a prominent citizen of Moro, Sherman county, today shot a man named Jenkins, the ball entering Jenkin's breast a little below the heart. Tbe shooting took place four miles from Moro. A Moro physician was called to attend the wounded man whose injury is supposed to he fatal. Higin bothara was arrested. The trouble arose over a division of grain. Such is the meager informatitn received at 2 o'clock this alternoon over the long distance phone. Higinbothan is presumed to be a warehouse and livery stable man of Moro. He owns a farm about four miles from Moro that he had rented to a man named Jenkins. It is known here that Higinbothan has been quarrelling with Jenkins all summer and wanted to get him off his place. Higlnbotham is said to he a quarrelsome stubborn man. The local lodge of Elks are making praiseworthy efforts to have Wasco county well represented at the carnival to be held in Portland from the 4th to the 15th of September. They will spare neither money nor effort to make the horticultural and agricultuial exhibit from Wasco county a credit to the coun ty and, if possible, tbe beet tbe county has ever made. At a meeting held at the club rooms last night the following committees were chosen to procure ex hibits and in a general way help to pro mote the object in view : Emile Scbtn no, chairman and general manager; II. T. Johnston, of Dnfur; E. L. Smith, N. C. Evans and J. E. Davidson, of Hood River; C. R. Smead, of Blalock ; F. C. Seufert, O. D. Taylor, A. 8. Bennett, N. Whealdon, Pete Stadleman, The Dalles; Charles VanDuyn, Tygh; A. Sandoz, Mill Creek; George Cooper, Dry Hollow, and A. Stewart, of Mosier. George A. Young and J. M. Russell were appointed a special committee on wool, and John A. Douthit and Hugh Gourlay to represent the press. The Portland carnival committee bave offered to give Wasco county any amount ol apace In tbe "agricultural palace" that may be considered necessary, from 50 to 150 feet. The O. R. A N. Com pany offers to carry the exhibits to Port- and without charge. It is earnestly hoped that the f'uit men and farmers will co-operate with the committees In their effort to make an exhibit that will be a credit to Wasco county as well as to the state. We have the stuff to do it with. Let us show the outside world what we have got. A good blacksmith is much needed at Victor, thia county, A competent man can have all the work he can do, and have the UBe of a suitable building prac tically free. Of course he must furnish his own tools and stock. Inquiries made of A. F. Evick, Victor, will be promptly answered. al-3tw IHflnolatlon notice.

When the treaty with Spain was pending Mr. Bryan made a trip to Wash ington to advise hit party friends in the tenate to vote for its ratification. He Is now running for president on a platform opposing the policies necessarily result ing from the approval of the treaty. Senator Hoar makes an exceedingly serious charge against Mr. Bryan In thia connection. Tbe senator says: "I knew from the opponents of the treaty, with whom Bryan labored and who la. bored with him just what he said and did at that time. lie just put bis sup port of the treaty squarely on the ground that it was better to keep the issue for tbe presidential campaign." It was wholly on I arty grounds. Senator Hoar asserts that Bryan appeared at the capital to influence votes for the treaty, hoping that it would involve tha country in such difficulties that the ad ministration would be ruined and tha path made easy for the democratic nom inee of 1900, who, as Mr. Bryan knew, would be himself. Corvallis Gazette. A Comedy of Error. Wednesday's Dally. A young man named Barnett Stien- bolt, some nineteen years of age, waa brought up from Mosier Tuesday after- noonjby Deputy Sheriff Woods, under a warrant of arrest charging him with larceny by bailee. A short time ago Stienholt bought a buggy for $80 from. W. A. Johnston, on a Bixty days' note, giving as security a mortgage on tbe buggy and a span of work horses ha claimed he owned and was working in a logging camp near Mosier. It was since discovered that the boy had never worked in any logging camp nenr Mosier and owned no horses, bnt, on the con trary, that tbe horses he exhibited to Mr. Johnston as his own belonged to a party at Mosier and had been hired by Stienholt to be brought here and shown to Mr. Johnston as bis own in order to secure tbe buggy. And to complicate matters still more the lad bad given his name as Uharles t. tirown and bad signed this name, instead of his own, to the note given to Mr. Johnston. When it was learned that Stienholt had sold the buggy to Mr. Husky and was pre paring to leave tbe country, he waa promptly placed under arrest.
