. A telegraph line to Prineville would
prove of great benefit to that place, and
at -oonvenience to the points along the
"road. There is, we believe, business
enough to keep the line going, and in a
short time it would pay good interest on
the money invested.

"Mr. Riddell and H. Rice, committee
trom Fairfield Grange were in the city
yesterday, to communicate with the.
V)oard of trade concerning the. putting of
line of boats on the river. . They say
' the grangers are prepared to give substan

Thompson has also been attacked.
The gentlemen of the U. 8. land office
-smile this morning as gaily as if the
Secretary had completed a set of rules for
locating the forfeited railroad lands and
they had the first claim to all of it. The
reason for this unusual joy is that the
checks for last quarters salary which evi
dently came by slow freight, have ar
rived and they have now no fears of an
individual financial stringency. ' Money
may be the root of all evil but it is root,
pole, branches and foliage of all modern
comfort.

that our visitors will go home pleased
with their visit, and more than pleased
-with The Dalles and its prospects. Every
man who understands the possibilities
f this country, and its present incipient
lopment, must see for The Dalles a
brilliant future, and seeing it is apt to
profit by it. We gladly welcome all

The 15ond Kefuited.
The individual bond which was pre
pared and sent to Portland Saturday for
the signatures of the stockholders of the
water company, was returned unsigned
yesterday morning. At the same time,the
company demands the retnrn of the con
tract, and the payment of all water rents
collected. It would seem from this that
negotiations are at an end and the mat
ter settled unless the Council should
consent to accept the warranty deed
offered. In conversation with one of
the councilmen, he stated that he would
not be willing to accept such a deed,
unless the matter was left to a vote of
the taxpayers,
DR. KOCH'S LYMPH CUBE.
It Is Being Tried on Patients In a Wash
ington Hospital.
Washington, Dec. 14, 1890. Dr,
Koch's lymph cure is now being tried on
five patients in various stages of pul
monary tuberculosis, at Garfield hospital
in this city. : Hie first inoculation was
made several days ago, and the results
are being watched with great interest
by the hospital physicians and doctors
of the city. So far, in none of the cases
has the patient grown worse under the
treatment. In one of the earlier cases
the rise in temperature and other symp
toms observed by- Dr.' Koch- in his ex
periments have been noticed. But in
another case the expected reaction has
not occurred. The doctors, hpwever, are
far from being discouraged, and the in
oculations will be continued. It may be
a month yet, they say, before they will
be ready to announce their conclusions
as they intend giving" the lymph a thor
ough trial.
A FABMIRI' ALLIANCB BOYCOTT. r
Thejr Declare One Against a Prominent
DreMtMl-BIeat Firm.
Tkbba Haute, Ind., Dec. 14. The
mass-meeting called by the Farmers'
Alliance Association was largely attended
by the farmers yesterday;: afternoon.
Several hundred merchants and profess
ional men took part in a general discuss
ion of the most' practical means of driving
the Kelson, Morris- & Co. meat out of this
market. The final decision was to boy
cott it. The farmers held that, since
Chicago dressed meat had come into the
city the local beef market had been de
stroyed, that Nelson, Morris 4 Co. were
selling at a loss to accomplish their pur
poses, and then, when they were secure
in it, they would raise the price.
BevUtna; the Methodist Constitution.
Indianapolis, Dec. 14. The session of
the commission of the revision of the
Methodist constitution has ended, and it
is hoped at the next meeting to have a
complete rough draft of the constitution.
At the final meeting, just before the con
ference of 1892, the finishing touches will
be given to the work.
Getting: Accurate Information.
Here is a story I heard a number of
years ago. In substance it ran as follows,
for it was a swift story and traveled far
and wide:
Mr. Jenkins was in the habit of getting
drunk now and then, for in those days
the people drank more or less. One day
he had taken a little too nuch, and on
the way home he got into a mud hole
with it, and when he got himself out he
was very much disfigured with the mud
that was on his clothes. He came on to
ward home, and when he neared his
residence he saw his little boy playing in
tne orchard. Wherefore he took it in
his mind to fool the little Mr. Jenkins.
He changed his voice and called to his
little boy.- The boy did not recognize
his father, who was in a terrible plight
from having wallowed in the mud and
water. "What's your father's name?"
asked the proud sire. "His name is Mr.
Jenkins, and mamma Bays he is a very
bad man!" replied the little innocent.
In 'September. 1890. two centuries will
have elapsed since the first paper-mill
was erected in America. This mill was
built and operated by William Ritting-
nuysen, at Kox borough, near Philadel
phia, and it is proposed that the bi-cen-
tennial be fittingly celebrated. Geo. W.

NORTH DALLES.
Its Prospects for a Large
Manufacturing City.
LOTS BEING TAKEN VERY FAST
FOR BUILDING AND BUSINESS
PURPOSES.
It would be difficult to find a better
illustration of the courage-determination
business foresight and rapidity of execu
tion so characteristic of the people of
this great northwest, than is found in the
life and progress at North Dalles. The
entire work is only in its infancv, hardlv
commenced, short as the time "is, how
ever, enough has been done or put under
way to convince Ae most skeptical that
the founders of this enterprise are in
earnest and will establish here this com
ing year a prosperous city. It is only in
the days of - modern enterprises when
men can le found who are prompt in
the execution of large undertakings that
towns and cities are built up, and people
awake to the idea that capital has stepped
in and carried out that which nature in
tended so many of these towns to be,
lurjte commercial snipping and manu
facturing points.
Geographically situated North Dalles
has perhaps no superior on the Columbia
river or in the northwest as a shipping
point.
There is tributary to it not less than
0000 square miles of valuable farming
land which will not remain longer with
out railway connections. And while it
may be admitted that the water wavs do
not do away with the necessity for rail
roads to the fall and complete develop
ment of this country, yet the increase in
the volume of business done on these
rivers fully proves that neither does the
building of railroads do awav with the
use of water ways nor render them a less
mighty factor in its general growth and
prosperity. But the two go hand in
hand providing a means by which the
traffic-of these inland empires may be
ciiuapiy nanaiea.
Nature has done her work to tjerfec
tion, nothing is needed to fill out the
picture, but the skill and thrift of an
industrious and intelligent community to
iuko mis portion 01 our state an assured
success. .. The fact that the U. S. srovern-
ment is awake to the importance of
opening up the Columbia river for navi
gation by large appropriations, would
seem to indicate tne fact that they expect
these thousands of acres of uncultivated
lands- which line the banks of the Colum
bia river for hundreds of miles to become
settled by thrifty farmers. -
If you will study the work laid out
by, tpe government you will soon be'con-;
vigced that North Dalles will secure all
the trade from the country north for a
distance of 125 miles and taking in some
of ' the finest agricultural land in that,
state. - . ,
Over seven million pounds of wool are'
shipped from-The Dalles- yearly. There
can be no legitimate reason "advanced
why woolen mills would not be an
assured success. ' Next then to the Boot'
& Shoe factory, soon to be opened, out
people must not be surprised if this new
industry is . not added to the one at
North- Dalles and put on a solid financial
foundationrimmediately. ; ' -t
" It is now an assured fact thafdne of
the largest tanneries west of the Miss
issippi river will be put up by eastern
capital, this enterprise alone would em
ploy a large force-' of men."' The. next
thirty days will make business very
lively at North Dalles. Dnrintr the last
week something like 110 lota were sold b
engaged, many of them for business and
building purposes and those by men who
have a keen eye to the immediate pros
pects for advancement. The fact that a
trade'was consnmated last week across
the river for over $58,000 adds one more
link in its future. - - - - v-- '
. When we say that North Dalles will be
a busy center of trade and that it will
continue to grow rapidly, we feel confi
dent that we are not overstepping the
bounds of probable reason. - Towns are
built up nowadays as if by magic, and
we hardly know where the capital came
from, sufficient that it is always ready
when opportunities exist. Talking
lately at Spokane Falls with a gentleman
who lived some miles north of the city
and who had not visited the Falls for the
last three years, he said to me, "I can
not understand this city. I see before
me blocks presenting a solid front seven
stories high. I cannot see who is to
occupy them, where the business is to
come from, surely caDital must be wild.
These lots that are now worth $50,000 I
could have had my choice-of at $300 only
four years ago." I said to my friend,
why did you not buy? Did you not
know that the water power of Spokane
Falls would build up a. city? Did you
not know that there was millions of
acres of land tributary to it? Could you
not take the map of this country and
trace out canyons and passes which
would compel railroads to center there?
"No," he said "I was not a believer in
the future of this country. I lacked
confidence. I was what is now called a
"mossback," the worst enemy this
country now has, but if I ever have
another opportunity I certainly will im
prove it."
I said to him, your opportunities have
gone, so far as Spokane is concerned, you
must look for new towns where the same
conditions exist.
Some of the largest cities in this
country are great inland empires and
that one, if not two, will be established
on the Columbia river is now an absolute
certainty. Then if you would secure a
home in this new 1 Dorado, one in
which you will be glad to spend your
future years, see to it, that before the
setting of another sun you have laid
the foundation stone. , S
