" From all parts coines the report that
the soil has received an abundance of
moisture to insure some kind of a crop.
If we are blessed with a few showers
in June abundant crops will follow be
yond any peradventure. A farmer from
Tygh Ridge stated yesterday that the
ground has not had as much moisture in
it for jthe past five years as it has this
year. .; Every bit of the snow has gone
Into the ground.
We ,,are sorry to hear that quite a
number of horses have died during the
past winter, 'south of Fifteen Mile, from
some disease resembling epizootic. F.
Claussen of Nansene lost twelve head,
and Mr. Fisher Mr. Craft and others
from one to four or five. Cattle, we
are told, have been affected in a some
what similar manner, in frequent in
stances and have died, but in no great
number, and the losses will not seriously
affect any one. There was no lack of
. feed anywhere.
r"Keno" writing from Antelope to the
. , Fossil Journal under date March 16,
i. The coroner '8 jury is today sitting on
the remains of a man named Finney,
. who died at the stage station on Currant
Creek. He had been in bad health for
a long time, and from appearance was
stricken with death while reading a
newspaper. The deceased, who has
been a resident of this vicinity for many
years, was a finely educated man, had
. been a Union soldier during the -war,
and no doubt in his better day had
marked out ereat things which he would
' accomplished, but Alcohol that great

many another, and he died a wreck and

river, he lost a very fine horse which
with his mate, made one of the finest
driving teams in the county. The doctor
thought he had been stolen and used
every effort within his power for his
recovery, bat in vain. He had long
since given up the idea of ever seeing his
handsome favorite when two or three
days ago Jim Brown, of Tygh valley,
brought him back to his master safe and
sound. It need not be said the doctor
was surprised and delighted. The horse
was found by Mr Brown on the east side
of the' Deschutes and had - probably
crossed the river intending to get back to
Duiur but got lost on the range. '

EDITED BY
THE DALLES W. C. T. UNTO?.
There are many vet in the school-room
t hat consider the tfiree R's quite enough ;
they believe those to be "cranks" who
call for anything more. History repeats
itself; at every stage in progress the cry
is, "We pitch our tents here." Atevery
stage there are those who feel the need of
advancing. Whether the teachers ad
vance or not the people go forward.
They breathe a different atmosphere
from what their fathers did, read differ
ent newspapers, and come in contact
with different ideas. One who reads the
newspapers sees that the effort (started
in this city by that noble man J.Edward
Simmons) to increase the reverence for
the American flag, is a duty that must
be taken up by the schools. We have a
large number who enter our country en
tirely ignorant of oar past if we simply
say they are ignorant the matter is ex
plained onough--and who have been
kept in order by bayonets up to this
time; these, with no gratitude to us,
would tear down this splendid govern
mental fabric. America is becoming the
resort of nihilists, anart'hists, and wild
talkers of all sorts. Some want the gov
ernment to divide up the property of
those who are richer than they ; some
want the government to furnish them
with food and clothing. The foreign
element among us must be made loyal
and clear-headed, and this work must be
undertaken by the public schools.
Representative J. D. Taylor of Ohio
has favorably reported to the House of
Representatives, from the commitee on
Alcolholic Liquor Traffic, a bill to prohi
bit the importation, exportation and inter-state
transportation, iir violation of
local laws, of alcoholic beverages. The
committee notes in it is very interesting
report that seven entire States, and ma
jor part of several other States, and
many places in most of the remaining
States, have prohibited the traffic in al
coholic liquors as a beverage. "This
fact," says the report, "together with the
large favorable vote in constitutional
amendment contests where prohibition
did not carry, and other- ..signs of the
times, clearly show that commerce in
alcoholic liquors as a beverage, the use
of which experience has proven is so de
structive to the public morals, will not
much longer pe tolerated by a majority,
the ruling power of this Republic."
The same gentleman favorably re
ported from the same committee a joint
resolution proposing a constitutional
amendment prohibiting the manu
facture, importation, exportation and
sale of all alcoholic liquors as a beverage
in the United States, and in every place
subject to its jurisdiction. This . report
says, "This evil is a confluent eruption
affecting every part of the national sys
tem, and it cannot le cured while in
any part of the system the evil is
humored."
"Their 'Works do Follow Them."
It is a beautiful home, and every
thing gives evidence of abundant peace
and plenty, but the dread monster,
death, has entered and torn the only son
from loving arms, and silence that is
oppressive broods over all. In the room
lately so filled with joy by his merry
presence, now so saddened by his absence
lies the cold form, but brave, handsome
face; and to those who remain "yet a
little while" there are only sweet mem
ories left of a true, happy Christian boy,
who', Irom life filled with sunshine and
faithful serving had heard the Master's
summons: : "Come up higher." How
quiet he lies, and how peaceful. He iB
"asleep in Jesus.
Yet how fast the tears fall, as one bv
one, old friends come in to take the last
look at the loved one, for, Oh I how they
will miss him. Among the many who
enter that house of mourning' is one old,
poorly dressed woman, whose face shows
sorrow's traces, and whose bearing shows
humiliation. W ith timid steps and slow
she passes to the servant's department
and knocks. She asks to see the afflicted
mother, and no tears of sympathy have
been more heartfelt than hers. .'For a
while no words are spoken, for fast falls
the tears, but presently, making an ef
fort, she says: "Mrs. S., Joe my hus
band wanted me to come over and tell
you how good Mrurice always was to
him. He savs he is too wicked to come
himself, but he loved Maurice, and
wanted me to tell you why. You know
Joe will get drunk, and the school boys
tease him and can him 'old drunk, joe,'
but Maurice never did. Instead, when
he noticed Joe could not walk steady, he
would quietly link his arm in his and
take him safe home, and now Joe is so
sorry for .you. for he loved Maurice."
Was it a little thing? Yes, but many
such testimonies came to that mother,
showing her that her boy carried his
Christian nrinciDles into every day life.
and brought comfort to her, and although
twento-hve years nave passed since
then, those memories are precious to her.
It was a little thing but can we not do
as much ? Dear friends what are we do
ing "as the days are passing by?" What
kind of a record are wc making? The
end is drawing nearer and let us remem
ber, good or bad, "Their works do fol
low them." ' - .

'. The Best Cough Medicine.
"One of my customers came in today
and asked for the best cough medicine I
had," say Lew Young, a prominent drug-
fist of Newman Grove, Neb. "Of course
showed him Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and he did not ask to see any
other. I have never yet sold a medicine
that would loosen and relieve a severe
cold so quickly as that does. I have sold
four dozen of it within the last sixty days
and do not know of a. single case where
it failed to give the mos perfect satisfac
tion." Fifty cent bottles for sale by

Death of Charles IS. Dunham.
It is with very great sorrow we record
the death of Chas. E. - Dunham of this
city at a little after one o'clock today,
in the prime of middle life and snatched
away before many of the people of The
Dalles had heard he was sick. The cirA
cuni8tance8 attending his demise are
peculiarly sad and distressing. His wife
who has Jbeen sick for two or three
weeks is so very low that she cannot be
informed of his death, while his young
est child is also so dangerously ill that
it too may pass away at any moment.
Mr. Dunham has been a resident of this
city since the ye,ar of 1877 when he
came here to enter the employ 'of the
late H. J. Waldron. His previous resi
dence was in Oakland California, and
we believe he was born in Maine. He
was a strictly honest and honorable
man and was highly resected by all
who knew him. ' . " -

The Missing Man and Boy.
G. H. Barnett, the father of County
Assessor Barnett, had a telegram brought
to him today which may throw some
light on the case of the man Tegarden
whom we spoke of yesterday as haying
wandered away from the Umatilla House.
The telegram was. marked Tampa, Idaho
and was signed "Mclntyre Pullman,"
and asked the person to whom it was
addressed to meet Tegarden at the de
pot at this place, as he was crazy. After
reading the telegram Mr. Barnett was
satisfied it was not for him, as he knew
neither of the parties, and he returned
it to the telegraph office.
