DECORATION DAY.
Tomorrow is the day, when by com
mon consent the nation garlands .with
flowers the graves of its heroic dead.
Precious beyond earth'.- richest jewetf.l
more fragrant than the roses we scatter
upon tbe cold clay above them, pweeter
than the music of earth's choicest min
strelsy is the memory of those who lived
and died to make and keep us free. No
marble shaft or seuljitiircd monument
may mark their resting place or tell the
record of. their deeds. The tale is written
on a grateful nation's heart. Gathered
around the friendly earth that conceals
their precious dust we scatter fresh
flowers upon their graves to keep their
memory green. For us on tented Held
or open plain -they bore the hardship of
the winter's blast or summer's sun or
boldly braved the cannon's mouth and
fhot and shell or not less nobly erished
in the prison pen by gaunt starvation
or by foul disease. ' For us they left the
homes they loved and friends that loved
them in return, to die perchance with
out a friendly hand to close their glassy
eyes. The blood they shed is the seed
of the nation's liberty and the nation
shall cherish it while the stars and
stripes continue to float over a free peo
ple. WE MEAN BUSINESS.
We learn from the Goldeudale Sentinel
that the Columbia River Navigation Co.,
have given a mortgage on the New York
Trust Co., for one million dollars, and
that the bond has been filed with the
county audi tor at Uoldendale. The same
paper informs us that Mr. Seabrook, the
civil engineer of the company has made
the statement that , a large number . of
men will soon be at work on the portage
on the Washington side of the dalles of
the Sentinel that the route will go about
two and a half miles north of Dalles City
but, he gave it as hia opinion that " the
ideas advanced by uarties at The Dalles,
in regard to a portage being built on that
side of the river are somewhat vision
ary." We may not know exactly what
Mr. Seabrook means but if he intends to
say that the men who have incorporated
to build a portage on this side are not in
earnest, the gentleman was never more
mistaken in his life. If by " visionary"
Mr. Seabrook means that a road on this
side is impracticable, we answer, that is
a matter that has never been proved.
The incorporators of the Oregon portage
put a surveying party in the field two
weeks ago and but for an accident that
caused the distraction of an important
surveying instrument, that cannot be. re
placed without some delay, the survey
would, by this time, have been nearly
finished. As soon as the broken instru
ment can lie replaced the survey will be
renewed. Till then and "until thfe proof of
the practicability of the road has been
tested we must content ourselves with
saying that we are dead in earnest about
having a portage on this side and fully
hope to accomplish our purpose.
THE Y SHO ULD RESIGN.
The speetacle'of Dr. Briggs and Heber
Newton holding on to membership, not
to say official positions, in churches to
whose teaching they are diametrically
opposed is neither edifying to the public
nor honorable to the gentlemen them
selves. When a preacher can no longer
teach the doctrines of a church be has
sworn to defend common honesty sug
gests his resignation. - He has no busi
ness to rend a communion which has re
ceived him into its embrace. . The world
is wide euongh and there is ample room
for his talents elsewhere. If Dr. Briggs
cannot lelieve in the inspiration . of the
scriptures and the doctrine of the incar
nation . and . the resurrection, every
principle of manhood demands that he
should sever his connection with a
church to which these are cardinal
truths. . .. '
A short time ago Dr. Bridgman, pastor
of a a Baptist church in New York city
embraced views, on the-nature of future
punishment, at variance with those gen
erally held by that denomination, when
he quietly resigned despite the urgent
entreaty of members of his church to re
main. No -man thinks anything the
less of Dr. Bridgman for having changed
bis opinions and "he went out from the
church which he" had so nobly served
with' the respect of every man in it,
-whose Jove and respect are wOrth the
having." ' The future influence of such a
man, other things being, equal, will be
tenfold greater than that of a cowardly
polemic who remains to distract and
rend a church with whose teaching he
has no sympathy. 'i '-'J
The Goldendale Sealinel facetiously re
fers to a class of farmers who " farm with
their mouth." They own no land, never
plowed a furrow in their lives, know
nothing of the ait of tilling the soil, but
are ever ready to give the farmer lots otjlat
advice as to what he should do and how
he should vote. The 'Only thing that
this class produces is taffy which they
administer to the real farmers at cost.
Taffy, however, is poor stuff for steady
diet.
An exchange calls attention to the fact
that democratic papers all over the state
are waging a vigorous warfare against
protection principles as earnestly as if
an election was at hand while it is well
known that free trade is a question on
which that party is by no means unani
mous. Our valuable little contemporary, The
Dalles Chboniolk, mistakes the attitude
of the church in commenting upon the
individual opinions of prelates anent the
Sunday opening of the world's fair. The
opinions expressed by the Catholic hier
archy are able and diversified, but in no
way do they commit the church to any
particular stand. Whatever the individ
ual opinion may be of any of our prelates,
it is needleps to say that in no way will
they seek legislative assistance to fur
ther a moral principal which is capable
of being propagated only by the influ
ence of ecclesiastical unction. Catholic
Sentinel.
Baby is sick. The woeful expression
of a Dee Moines teamster's countenance
showed his deep anxiety was not entire
ly without cause, when he inquired of a
druggist of the same city what was best
to give a baby for a cold"? It was not ne
cessary for him to say more, his counte
nance showed that the pet of the family,
if not the idol of his life was in distress.
"We give our baby Chamlierlain's Cough
Remedy," was the" druggist's answer.
"I don't like to give the baby such strong
medicine," said the teamster. You know
John Oleson, of the Watters-Talbot Print
ing Co., don't you? inquired the drug
gist. "His baby, when eighteen months
old, got hold of a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough 'Remedy and drank the whole, of
it. Of course it made the baby . .vomit
very freely but did not injure it in the
least, and what is more, it cured the ba
by's cold. The teamster already knew
the value of the Remedy, having used it
himself, and was now satisfied that there
was no danger in giving it even to a
baby. For sale by Snipes & Kinersly.

Cherry Stealing:- (
Some of our citizens having cherry
trees in their yards complain that bad
boys are stripping their trees of cherries.
The owners of the; trees -wish to give
these boys f ai r warning that they - will
get into trouble if they peisist in taking
the cherries. The city marshal has been
notified of the pilfering, and will take
charge of any persons caught at it. '
. . Why It Rained.
A friend writes in from Boyd that they
have had a fine rain at that place and
attributes it to the fact that a Methodist
camp-meeting has just started at Dufur.
