confidently expects to take it home. with
him, but there are six other captains
equally confident that they will have it,
and someone is going to be disappointed.
The competition will take place towards
the end of the week, and will be exciting

' There, are -19 entries for the 100 yard
dash, for those under 35 years of age; 4
for 100 yard dash over 35 years ; eight

officers; 20 for 440 yard race -and 20 for

Saturday evening. -.
Major Lucas had difficulty . in getting
a suitable mount, and the boys of H and
E companies hearing .of this, raised a
purse and had the majors horse shipped
to him by express from Arlington.
The Third will be the banner regiment
of the O. N. G., in point of attendance,
orderly bearing, and discipline. This is
the opinion of an officer of high rank, who
has already seen the battalion at drill.
The conduct of the boys in camp, has
been most exemplary and there has been
no use for the guard house. Although
nearly 150 men were given passes last
night, all were back before their time
expired.
r Lieut. Col. Thompson, Capt. Hollister,
Surgeon; and Lieut. Norton, engineer,
have formed a joint mess and entertain

Of the 48 men composing company K

The most interesting ceremonies dur

in ;: Battalion Drill, at 1 :30 p. m., and
dress 'parade, at 7. p. m. The 'latch

A few days ago Joe Warner of Nansene
took down to Portland two car loads of
beef cattle "and four coyotes. " The cattle
market was dull and Mr. Warner was
obliged to sell them at a slight loss, but
what he lost on the cattle he made up
on the coyotes. It appears coyote scalps
are worth $5 a head in Multnomah
county ; so Joe hired ' a man for $5 to kill
the four coyotes and take the scalps to
the courthouse where the man got $20
for them and Joe ' pocketed $15 ' clear
profit. : Of course . the man was able' to
swear that the coyotes were killed in
Multnomah county.
The list of officers, published-yesterday
wm incomplete, in that it' left out the
name of one of The . Dalles' most ener
getic youug men," for ;which we are duly
Sorry , but not to blame, as the name did
not appear on the roster. . We allude to
Lieutenant "J. S. Booth, (who is signal
officer of the regiment.
lhe Eight -Mile Zo-ological gardens
contain the following curiosities. A
chicken with three legs and three wings,
White rats j "imported from Central 'Afri

rare breeds of domestic fowl embracing
full grown hens that weigh only a pound
to roosters that tip the beam at 14.'

At the meeting of the World's Wr. C.
T. Union , held in Washington City
Sunday afternoon," Mrs. M. B. Piatt spoke
on the Maker of the work done by the
State department, at the request of the
brewers and -matters, as to the best
means of introducing their products in
South and Central America. The United
States consuls obtained the information,
and it was printed in book form for dis
tribution. Mrs. Piatt spoke , to a large
meeting as follows : ,
"For years the temperance people have
beseiged congress with petitions for an
inquiry into the liquor traffic, which was.
never granted. The liquor men do not
want the traffic investigated, they know
that if the light of public investigation
be turned on their business, it would ex
pose such festering corruption, such
depths of informing such demoralization
of homes, and degradations of mankind
as would arouse a cyclone of indignation.
But government drops its hat gracefully
to the liquor traffic and makes her offi
cers drummers for the beer trade."
Intemperance people want their homes
protected and the streets made safe for
cnildren when they go out of the home.
"The Htory la Old."
BY W. B. MERCHANT.
"All that can be said on the temper'
ance question has been said a million
times over. There is no need to take a
temperance paper."
"The woman who made the above
statement is a wife and a mother. How
one's thoughts will circle round ' and
spread out, like ripples from a center of
agitation, from that old adage. "There
is nothing new under the sun."
Do politicians ever tire of these magi
cal words, "tariff vs. free trade." Every
four years, or oftener, the changes are
rungthe old ground plowed, the seed
sown, the harvest often depending upon
the amount of -cultivation. Does any
one say the story has lost its grip?
There is a theme much older, than this.
The preacher tells of creation, of the fall,
and of redemption. Thousands listen,
think, and shudder at the thought of the
world without Christianity ; O, pity the
few who say, "The story is old, let it
die I"
1 Almost as long ago as- creation the
story of human love was told ; did this
woman say to her would-be husband,
"That story has been told a million times,
don't tell it to me?" -The
circle widens and comprehends all
nature. Every season brings forth- the
earth's products, fruits, grains, etc., and
ail flesh; every day toe appetite "reiter
ates the ancient demand. Nevertheless,
we must not say- anything upon the
temperance question, because it may
nave been said beiore. will the tempter
hold his peace the while? An old picture
cornea to mind of a church, "Closed
while the pastor takes a vacation." The
arch fiend says, "I never take a vaca
tion!" J Don't say anything about temperance
to that woman's boy I He may learn to
tipple of his father, what matter if he
tipple harder? Don't say anything if he
join the midnight carousal ; bad blood is
sometimes engendered there ; : he may
reach a felon's cell, but keep your lips
closed ; unchecked temptation sometimes
end4 on the gallows, and the victim !
But let us go back. , This woman , has
daughters, too they may be beautiful,
genteel, educated (although these things
are old and ought not to be repeated.)
Don't tell them of wine-bibbing hus
bands, its too frivolous. Can you follow
the wave and tell who the victim might
be, aye has been? Oh, the story is old.
but now is the time to thunder it into
that mother's ears.
Too late? It would not save her boy,
it would not save her girl from a life of
double anguish? They are not worth'
saying? It would only he another form
of the old story. . Poor mother! But,
thank God, the sun -will -continue to
melt 'the ice and thaw the frozen ground,,
the seed will sprout and grow, the drip
ping water will still wear-the rock.-:
As to the idea put' forth by some that
in the case of prohibition the state ought
to compensate saloon-keepers and distill
ers for loss of property, the matter is
deserving of candid consideration. No
food cause can be aided by wrong doing.:
iut let this fact be noted ; the state has
no right to prohibit a business at all, ex
cept on the ground that it is intrinsi
cally a bad business, and one fraught4
with damage to society. The funda
mental, justification.- for meddling sum
marily with this liquor business is, that
lt is a business found to be so essentially'
and continuously, always and everywhere
injurious to society and ruinous toother
wise -happy homes, as to . prove itself to
be an inco no putable damage to the com
monwealth,, amounting to. a horrible
nuisance and a curse. It will be time
enough for the; prohibited nuisance to
demand compensation for its abatement
when some compensation shall begin to
be made , for the merciless . misery and
loss it has already occasioned. The liq
uor business is .so essentially injurious,
its prosecution is in fact, even if not yet
so denominated in law,; a enme.
