OUR "KID'S" FOURTH OF JULY.
We put him to bed lu his little nightgown.
The wontt battered yon neuter there wu in. the
town:
Yet he Raid an he opened hid only well eye,
" 'Rah, 'rah, fur the jolly old Fourth of July!"
Two thumb and iifht fingers with lint were
tied up,
On his head who a Sump like an upside down
cup,
And Mr t-)Ue Wh distorted, bis nose all awry,
. From too jovs.ijfjhe glorious Fourth of July.
We were glmP lie hud stilrtui ffbroad with the I
sun.
And all day had lived in the inrnder and Inn:
While the boom'of the cannon nwired up to the
sky.
To salnU' Young America's Fourth of July.
I said we were glad all the plows were there.
As we plastered and bound them with tenderest
care.
But out of the wreck came the words, with a
sigh,
"If tomorrow was only the Fourth of July!"
He will draw altogether again, never fear,
And be ready to celebrate freedom next yenr::
Meanwhile all his friends are most thankful
there lies,
A cruckerlesK twelvemonth 'twlxt Fourth of
Julys. ''.-
We kissed hlin good night on his powder specked
face.
We laid his bruised hands softly down 111 their
place.
And he murmured, as sleep closed his one open
. -eye, , '. -. . ;
"l wish every day was the Fourth of July!"

late Charles Gilgard together with a nine
years' lease "jf the' Jbuildiug wen. "sold
' yesterday at suction. The building arid.
iQjise brought $250 and were purchased
bychas. Fouls.
-Messrs. Thorubury, Sutcliffe, and
Ca$es returned yesterday from their fish
ingrip to Trout lake and Mr. Burgett,
who had charge of the team, was so de
layed at the Hood River ferry that he
did not arrive till 11 :30 last night. The
record of the catch is a follows : Gates,
143; Sutclitt'e, 153; Thorn bury, 249;
Burget, 323.
Lost, on Wednesday, July 1st, some
where between the limits of the boat
landing or between First and Fifth streets
a lady's gold watch and chain, Elgin
works, watch bearing monogram "E. A.
G." on back, charm on chain with word
'.'Mamma" engraved thereon. Finder
will be suitably rewarded for leaving
same at The Dalles Chronicle office.
K. B. Virtue, alias "shorty" of F. Co.,
a college chum of our drum major was
seen yesterday afternoon leading three
of his companions under the friendly
- shade of the most dilapidated umbrella
it was ever our lot to behold. Still they
were happy and "Shorty" was singing
something about biing "slightly disfig
ured but still in the ring."
Captain Blowers of D company requests
the Chronicle not to say anything about
his red nose. Had it not been for this
request we intended to nay that the
captain has the reddest nose we have
ever seen barring that of Judge Thorn
bury; Both got them honestly, however,
. for the sun has been doing some hand
some frescoe work of . late on fishermen
9fil- DOiid soldiers.
A fire started last evening between
nine and ten o'clock caused by a lamp
. explosion in the building between W.
If . Wiley's place and the academy; now
occupied by Chas. Fouts. A few of the
neighbors gathered very promptly and
forming a bucket brigade soon ' had the
fire under control, not however till it had
damaged the house and contents to the
amount of about $200.
-The two sons of F. A. Bancroft of
' Portland, Masters Arthur and George,
aged twelve, and fourteen, arrived in
camp last evening at about eight o'clock
having ridden all the way from Portland
on horseback'. They are the guests of
Mr. H. Athelston Morley, ' who is the
guest of lieutenant Norton. The boys
. lost a day and a half by getting off the
y. trail, but as one of them facetiously said,
"We got there all the same."
- Mr. 8. L. Young, the jeweler, has on
' I exhibition in one of his show windows
the three solid silver medals which are
to be awarded to the successful contest
, ants in the bicycle tournament tomorrow,
i ,-- sOne is for the successful winner of a half
'-v' mfle dash' for safety wheels-only, another
y . " for a three "mile dash for high wheels
only and the third for the successful con
- testant in a five-eighth mile dash for
' ' both kinds of wheels.
THE GALLANT THIRD.
Nearing the Close of This Year's En-r
cainpment A Report of Yesterday's
Competitive Drill and Games.
...The tirat annual encampment of the
3d regiment O. N. G.'will close with the
Week. In every respect : tlie encamp
ment has been successful and Col.
Houghton is to be congratulated upon
the ability that he- has displayed both
as an organizer and air" executive officer.
That he has .been'' ably assisted by his
staff and the officers of the various com
panies goes without saying. The mem
bers of the 3d regiment are as proud of
Col. Houghton as he is of. the regiment.
Only three-companies entered for com
petitive drill. These were C company
Of The Dalles, D company of Hood
River, and K company of; LaGrande.'
At the close of the drill a protest was
entered against C company for having a
man in their ranka who belonged to A
company and who had not been prop
erly transferred. The protest having
been sustained by the officers, C coin-
i pany was ruled out and thv-regimental
j plate was awarded to D company of
! Hood River. . The following is the score :
C company,- 62 per cent. ; D company,
j 53 per cent. ; K company, 40 per., cent.
In the 440 yards race the second, third
and fourth heats were run off and Priv
ate Ryan of F company. Private L. D.
Estes of B company, and Private Mo
Curry of K company were the respect
ive winners. ; ,
Company D of Hood River has been
declared the winner, of the challenge
plate in the competitive drill, yesterday.'
We congratulate- the . Hood River boys
on their success; and we prophesy that
it will take hard work Instween this and
the' next annual encampment for any
other company to get possession of it.
Rome fifteenor twenty of the boys were'
put in the guard-room yesterday' for
trespassing, in afield of oats on their
way back from bathing in the Columbia.
As no intentional wrong was committed
the judge of the field court promptly dis
charge them. '.-"
The Chronicle today heard a gen-
j tleman from Portland, who is. taking in
'the pleasures (?; of camp life at Camp
i Chenoweth, seriously advise the drum
major to bv 'no means take a bath till
the
camp is over. He said. "Look at
i ute, 1 took ia bath yesterday. I had to
use a, jack plane to scrape the dirt off me ;
but I'got it ott and"now I look like it
bean pole'and my clothes ar s loose as
those of a scare crow.'V,-. : ,
r Ordinance Sargeant Fritz, had liia feel
ings badly lacerated yesterday morning.
Adjutant Ha worth gaje him an order
which read as follows ; "Thf Ordinance
sergeant is hereby detailed- for duty in
the First Infantry band for the day,
and willreport at their quarters at guard
mount and at batallion drill.
By order of Col. Houghton.
J. F. Haworth, First Lieut, and Adgt.
Visions of a trip to Portland with its
accompanying pleasures were rudely
dashed to the ground when the sergeant
discovered that it was to the Third regi
ment he was to report and not the First.
The Choniclk made a slight mistake
the other day when it said that company
E contributed to the furnishing of a
horse tor Major Lucas. - The facts are
company E generously offered to con
tribute, but company H as generously
refused to allow any one to contribute a
dollar but themselves.' They have a fine
sense of honor, these cow-boys have, and
a finer lot of all round manly, generous
material out of , which to make soldiers
does not exist anywhere.
Company ' A desires, through the
Chronicle, to thank C. E. Haight the
restaurant man, for a box of fine cigars.
Now while this thing is in fashion if
somebody would give the Chronicle a
chance to do some thanking on its own
account, of a nature similar to the above,
we would do it up in great shape.
A pleasing incident of .yesterday's
camp life was a picnic given by a num
ber of Dalles ladies to the officers of the
third regiment followed by an informal
officer s reception of their entertainers i
at the officers quarters. The following i
ladies took part in the entertainment: '
Mrs. Patterson, Mrs. Barret, Mrs.
Fish, Mrs. Crowe, Mrs. Houghton, Mrs.
Hollister, Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Sampson,
Miss Lang, Miss Bessie Lang, Miss
Michell, Miss Rose Mich ell, Hiss An
nette Michell, Miss Ursula Ruch, Miss
Louise Ruch, Miss Maie Williams, Miss
Virginia Marden, Miss Florence Lewis,
and Miss Matilda Hollister.
It is admitted on . all ' hands that
C company if the best drilled company
of the whole regiment. That D company
or any other company, shonld have
carried off the challenge , plate is ac
counted for solely by the vital mistake
of transferring a man from A company
to C company in the field without due
authority. Just who was to blame for
this error, is not for us to say, but "fcve
do say that if the : thing was done
through an intention to compete for the
plate by means of fraud and deception,
the man who is guilty ' should be pun
ished to the ' fullest extent, and : The
Dalles boys who are innocent of '- any
wrong in the matter, owe it to them
selves to find-out who the criminal is, if
any crime has been committed.

MARKET
J "
The business week has been an unusu
allv busy one. Our merchants speak of a
.....:(........ .-l tV.A inturinr an I
also of the home or local patrons.. The !
late rainf and favorable weather,- . havO'1;
stimulated the farming communities and j
the general tone "of business in all j
branches has had a buoyant tendency.
THE SALMON- INDUSTRY.
The salmon season has been a light one
for packers and canneries, the low water
in the rivers and other causes unknown
have made the catch the lightest on rec
ord. The Rockfield canning company,
n-bi.K rkitfr 1 7'-t rauou fntito.i in nor
."l-,""'7
each four dozen cans, for 1890, has only
put'ap about 3,800 cases this season and
the few fish taught, and which will be
brought , to the cannery from this time to
the close of the season, will probably
not swell their pack to niore , than 5U)0
cases. Presuming the catch .to be cor
respondingly small om the lower Colum-
bia, the year's work will not exceed one
fourth of last season' put up on this
coast. "While the market seems inactive
owing to the-large export of canned sal-

The' week's wool market shows nothing !

Dalles has had larger receipts this season
than last, but the sales have .lieen .less I
than foF the corresponding period. The
buyers, who were here last week, have!
nearly ail-gone, as sellers, prices were

TUK WHEAT OUTLOOK. j
JThe United States agricultural bureau j
reports a wheat product of over 500,000,
000, which is iieing harvested and is rip
ening, for 1891. and that the yield in the
Northwest will be the largest ever
known. The following from. Europe
will be of interest : ""''

Beklin, June 29. The Ilewjwatmeirer,
referring to harvest prospects Jn Prussia,
says that the yield of , wftiter rv? will be
1 to per cent, of average, and th?yield
of winter wheat 63 per cent, of average,
while the potato crop is uncertain. s
Dispatches from India of a recent date
indicate a great amount of suffering from
the effects of drouth and in someparts
of Europ the distress for want of foodis
beginning to be felt, and" the eve.
of bread riots, which would indicate a de
mand for all our surplus, is near at hand.
In the eastern states the grain market is
weak, but there is, ;neverthelese, a gener
al that the United ' States will be called
on to supply the great difBciency, as its
graineries are the only resource for sup
ply in the world for 1891.' The next
month will settle the question as to the.
world's breadstuff's, and then markets
will begin to assume a reliable phase.
The Orient is beginning to furnish us
with a market for our flour. Arrange-
ments have been made to export large
quantities monthly which means open
ing up another channel for our., grain
and a permanent market, as the Mon
golians take to our bread with favor.
It is reported tnat parties -are con
tracting in. the Palouse. and Walla
Walla sections for the crop, at 70 cents
per bushel. Whether this . is reliable
and "straight goods"- is questionable.
The Dalles wheat market is steady at
80 cents per bushel.
Oats The oat market is in good sup
ply with" more frequent offerings. ' Ow
ing to the' near approach of the new
crop, a decline has taken place. We
quote $1.201.25 per eental. Market

good with a limited inquiry. We quote

Floub Local brands, $45 wholesale
and $4.50 i $4.75 retail; extra, if 5.50
