opposite is nearing completion and will
be occupied in a short time.
The Sunday Welcome suggests the

retired by circumstances over which he
had no control.
The case of Snipes vs. the O. R. A N.

a banker against a corporation how can
the jurors "get even" on both?
The freight traffic by rail is very light
for the past few days. Tlie railroad em

The sample shoes of the Boston Shoe

one of the windows of the Chkonicle
office are attracting much attention and
favorable mention. The efforts of the
factory are not entirely bootless either,
but we have none of the aforesaid boots.
With a railroad to the coal mines' and
a branch to the glaciers of Mt. Hood,
The Dalles can snub the weather regu

branch to Ml. Hood, we shall hope the
aforesaid regulator will turn the very

flocks in fine condition. Good weather
for sheepmen, rain for the farmers, for
feited lands for settlers, and better trans
portation facilities for all the people of
Eastern Oregon ought to be lonesome.
We shall haye so little to growl at that
the oldest settlers will be homesick.

The Water Bill.
A strenuous effort is being - made at
Salem on the part of a few of our citizens
to defeat the passage of the bill known
as. the Dalles City Water Bill. The
main features of the bill are to so amend
the old law as that the water commis
sioners shall have exclusive control of
the water works, that is shall be inde
pendent of the city council, the city
shall pay the commissioners all funds
heretofore recieved by it belonging to the
"water fund" and that the commission
shall have the power to and shall keep
loaned at the highest rate of interest all
monies belonging to the "water fund"
not immediately needed for payment of
expenses, interest or bonds. The bill
was endorsed by the city council, the
board of trade and all the honest tax
payers. If passed the city will save
from f 3,000 to $ 5 ,000 in interest annually
the work of perfecting the water plant
will tie carried on with less delay and
the work will be exclusively under the
control of men chosen because of their
peculiar fitness for that work. Any at
tempt to defeat this bill we believe orig
inates in selfishness. We understand
that the latest attempt to kill the bill is
the introduction of a bill placing the
water fund in the hands of the mayor
and city treasurer. We do not believe
that this scheme, if such a bill has been
introduced, is suggested in good faith or
with the expectation that it will become
a law. We know it will not meet the
atinroval of the tax -imi vers of the riiv
It looks much like a trick and we ear
nestly hope it will not le suffered to in-
terfer with the bill introduced bv Senator

Annual Meeting of the H. B. Stockhold

Dufur, Or., Feb. 8, 1891.
The annual meeting of the stockhold
ers of the S. B. Medicine manufacturing
company of Dufur, Or., being called bv
the president Dr. L. Vanderpool and all
the stockholders being present the meet
ing was formally called to order. The

the minutes of the last meeting. -
On motion of Acting Secretary L. Van
derpool, Mr. A. J. Brigham was ap
pointed secretary pro tem. The reading
of the minutes of the last meeting were
then read; c onsidered and adopted.
After considerable discussion Dr. L.
Vanderpool was renominated and elected
president of the company . and A. J.
Brigham vice president for the ensuing
year.
On motion of T. H. Johnston W. L
Vanderpool was elected secretary for the
company for the year ending on the first
Monday of Feb., 1892.
The election of . directors being the
next thing in order, the names of certain
stockholders were mentioned, when
was mite an extended discussion upon
the various plans of work, resulting in
the unimous verdict that no known
company had reached such grand results
and become so generally known and re
ceived such widespread approbation and
credit, as the S. B. Medicine company,
under the wise, prudent and economical
administration of the company's affairs
during the year of 1890. And it was
unanimously agreed that no better
names could be mentioned to conduct
the company's works for the year to
come than those of T. H. Johnston, W,
L. Vanderpool and A. J. Brigham

. , , A. Mysterious Disappearance,
Mrs. Johnson, a lady of about 35 or 40
years of age who was turned out of
doors as she - claims, by a relative and
came to The Dalles the first of last week,
has disappeared and so far no one seems
to be able- to obtain any information
with regard to her whereabouts.
Friends have looked all over this city
but are unable to find her, and any per
son who may know where she is will
confer a favor by sending the same to
this office. Back of all this is a long
story of her abuse which some time may
be made public Mrs. Johnson ' is a
high-minded and deserving womam arid
it is hoped that she can be found and
justice done her.

The Portland Sunday Welcome has this
to say in regard to Mr. Samuels retire
ment from the West Shore :
The stockholders of the West Shore,
considering that L. Samuels was not
worth $400 a month, have deposed him
as a manager, and will conduct the pe
riodical on a more econemical basis do

ing in salaries paid literary contribators,

fits the entire state, but we fear you will

The woman's-rights movement iir Roth
mania baa received a new impetus from ;
the recent election of a 'woman to the
mayoralty of Branesci. ' Meetings of wo
men are being held, all over the country
with a view to organizing a woman's
league' for the purpose of booming ' wo
men for city offices. The aims of the
leafrue will be followed in observance of
the fact that," while women are legally
eligible to all local offices in Romnania,
public opinion and the constitution . are
against admitting them to' parliament
and granting them the ballot.'
" The league will, therefore, be an asso
ciation of women who will merely plan
and execute the best TY"' of influenc
ing their husbands and brothers to sup
port other women for municipal elective
offices. The headquartera of the league
will be in Bucharest, where the women
have been inspired to strong' efforts for
"emancipation by the achievements and
fame of their queen, Carmen Sylva.
, The female mayor, whose political suc
cess has stirred thia agitation; is" Mrs.
Anna Johescu, 45 years old, and the
mother of three children.' ' She has been
a woman's rights agitator for some time,
and, unfortunately, has ''gathered about
her a great crowd of strong minded Rou
manian women, who are now torment
ing her with loud and numerous demands
for all the offices at her disposal. ' In
fact, their cries for spoils have been so
persistent that they have reached the
ears of the minister of the interior and
have imperilled the whole cause of wom
an's rights in Roumania, for the minister
has said that unless thia office seeking
and the attendant evils cease he will not
only refuse to confirm Mrs. Jonescu's
election, but will discourage by all law
ful means similar candidacies in the
future. London Letter.
Common Sense About Thermometers.
There is something exasperating to a
sensible person in seeing a useful scien
tific instrument like a thermometer
dressed up in frivolous fashion, and
mounted in such a variety of preposter
ous ways on plush easels, tin or bronze
plates, in every conceivable manner that
. :M , , , .
win maxe an ostentatious show. The
simpler manner in which such an instru
ment can be mounted the better. The
ugly black tin case that surrounds the
ordinary thermometer is no addition to
it. The best way to buy thermometers
is by the dozen or half dozen unmounted.
Each instrument consists merely of the
plate containing the degrees and the
mounted tubes. By keeping a half dozen
togetner ana noticing the uniformity or
wans oi unuormity or tneir register de
fective ones may be rejected.
Purchased in this wav trustworthv in.
struments do not cost over ten iwnta
apiece. Once in a while in testing them
a aeiecnve one will be found, but it is
rare. It is an excellent plan to keep one
of these thermometers in every room.

A war on ordinary sweeping should b
inaugurated; for. of all dangerous habits.
none is worse than that of flinging that
combination of everything which wa
call dust into the air to be breathed.
Brooms should be abolished. Bard floors,
with rugs to be lifted and shaken out of
doors, with a complement of ' work with
the scrubbing brush, will drive out our
present system of carpets and brooms.
No one can tell what is or is not in the
dust on his floor. - A carpet in the course
of six months is permeated with organic
waste- brought in from the streets or
breathed off or ' sloughed off from our
bodies. These dangers are even worse

possibly be assuredly safe. St. Louis

Our children are e-ettin e- lota nf nmnm-
ment these cold winter days from the
game oi -wool Dau," and perhaps other
children may ' find it good fun. The
childi en are seated around a perfectly
smooth topped table. A little raw wool
is formed into a light ball and placed in
the center of the table. The children
then commence to blow toward it, each
ne trying to drive it from him and off
the table, if possible, and the child who
allows it to pass his right side and fall
on the floor is excused from the table,
and stands in a line by the wall. . Each
one who allows the ball to pass by and
fall on the floor retires in line. The
longer the ball is kept on the table,
everyone blowing as hard as possible,
the more amusing the game becomes.
