The Chronicle is the Only Paper in
The Dalles that Receives the Associated
Press Dispatches.
The Portland World is out in
favor of
-a special session of the legislature for the
purpose of voting an appropriation to
build a portage around the dalles of the
3oImubia on the Oregon side and hopes
it will be convened. The sentiment of
the entire press of the state, with the ex
option tif the Oregovian, is opposed to
the Washington portage, or at least sees
no effectual relief in the Paul Mohr
scheme. On belialf on a road on the
Oregon side the World says :
That such a project would be a success
financially there can be no doubt, and
there no reason why it should not be.
The next legislature, at all events, could
ut the gordian knot; and no doubt will
do so. Xo reasonable business man
thinks for a moment that the portaeo on
.the Washington side will accomplish the
-object aimed at, and probably no offer at
present before the public would satisfac
torily do so.
One fact cannot be overlooked in an
undertaking of such vital importance to
Portland and the people of Oregon the
. management should be amenable to
Oregon laws and this can only be ac
complished by building the line south of
the Columbia. The exigencies of the
case imperatively demand this, the in
terests of a few Spokane and Seattle
-capitalists io the contrary notwithstand
ing. We think the people of Eastern
Oregon at the next election will enunci
ate this fact with no. uncertain sound.
linker City will hold an election on
the 2nd prox. and she seems to have de--iermiiied
to conduct it in accordance
Wi&ht f tic iew Australian system of vct
"ing. .Baker City papers speak of the
j .ilge.i and clerks of election meeting to
;iceive instruction regarding the con-
ii.ict tif the election.. There appears to
'1 a (lifi'ereue of opinion among lawyers
i-. regarding-tlie applicability of the new'
i Sawv.tj -cities. Our city advisers do not
sinlnk it applies to The Dalles. The;
ame is true of Astoria as we learn from
ti paper of that city. On the other hand
Ine Ashland Tidings thinks 'that all
. r rrariicipal elections in this state must bo
- t'onducted in accordance with the new
law. The law itself says, "All general
or special elections hereafter held in this
state -shall he conducted under the pro
. tvisioivof this act," and nothing is said
about '.municipal elections. It seems
strange that a law which-was prepared
1 -.with so much care should be of such
t-oubtful meaning. It is probable how-
ver that it depends on the charter of a
;ty whether the law applies to it or not.
The town near the erstwhile Colum
bia river bar has a new form of human
-disease. An old man died there, the
other day, says a contemporary, of "gen
eral ability." We wonder what would
Lave happened if he had been sick. .

The "Regulator" has been one of the
greatest boons to Klickitat county that
lie has had for many generations. It
"has brought freight rates down, and
lirought np the price of grain. It should
b& patronized by the consumer and
.producer. (Joldei'idale Courier.
The farmers of Klickitat county and
The Dalles must now decide whether or
not they want an open river. Should
Uiev allow the Regulator to be driven off

to. portage. The matter is in y6ur hands,

The fight between the Union Pacific

Kentucky's new constitution is a

Thus far this year the bank exchanges
at Portland show a gain of eleven per
cent, over the the same period of last
year. Those of Seattle show a loss of
twelve per cent, and those of Tacoma a
loss of twelve and a half percent. Port
land's exchanges of this year are consid
erably in excess of those of Seattle and
Tacoma together. The figure up to the
end of September v. ere $72,032,000 for
Portland, $36,431,004 for Seattle and $35,
232,024 for Tacoma. Portland is more as
suredly the center and metropolis of the
northwest than ever. Eugene State

. He Was an Orphant.
Colonel Bob Ingersoll says that on' his
recent trip through the west he hap
pened into a court room of one of the far
western cities while a very interesting
murder trial was in progress.
The prisoner was a boy sixteen years
old who, while in a fit of passion," had
shot his father and mother. The lad
was clearly bad all the way through, and
looked as desperate and as vicious as he
really was. His lawyer was quite a
shrewd man, and when he saw the evi
dence was clearly against his client he
said to the judge :
"We ask tor leniency in the sentence,
your honor." -
"On w;hat grounds?" asked the judge,
in a surprised tone.
"Because the prisoner is an orphant."
A I'lot to Do Murder.
Dublin, Oct. 30. The National Press,
of this City, is responsib!e.for the Teport
that there is a plot on foot to murder
William. O'Brien. The same paper
stated there is a plot to assault, if not to
kill, John Dillon. The police of Cork
and this city declare the story unfounded.
The affair has caused a sensation. I

The Hishop of Udrry.
The eloquent; bishop of Derry.has, I
hear, accepted-an iuvitation from the
trustees"of Columbia college to -deliver
in. New York city during Lent, 1892, a
course of lectures on "The Evidences of
Christianity." Remembering that the
right reverend prelate is nearing his sev
entieth year, it is not surprising, in his
letter to the bishop of New York accept
ing the invitation, to find him saying
that his decision required a good deal of
consideration; but he adds that it is a
source of pleasure to him to think of
meeting his lordship "and many vener
able chiefs of t lie'greai and living branch
of Christ's holy Catholic church across
the ocean.'' - .
The bishop, by birth an Irishman,- was
graduated at Oxford, where he -won
many distinctions,, and he was Bampton
lecturer in 1876. As a preacher he stands
without .doubt in the first rank, and his
lectures are likely to find as wide a cir
cle of readers here as on the other side
of the ocean. Bishop Alexander was a
most determined opponent of the prayer
bopk revision undertaken by the synod
of his church, and his action in, walking
out of the synod hall after a solemn pro
test against the proceedings will not
soon be forgotten. Manchester Guard-
