The Chronicle is the Only Paper in
The Dalles that Receives the Associated
Press Dispatches.
The dispatches inform ns that the
United States grand jury, which hag
been investigating the dealings of the
Howell Lumber Company of St. Joseph,
Mo., which failed several months ago,
has returned six indictments against
members of the firm for violation of the
interstate commerce law. It appears
the ITowells' entered into a secret ar
rangement with the agent and weigh
inaster of the Kock Island i-oad whereby
they were able to get such a rebate from
the weight of their shipments of lumber
that they were able to pell at a price be
low all competition. The action is'bel.l
to be in direct violation' of the interstate
commerce law. The great trouble con
nected with all arrangements of this
character is to obtain such proof of their
existence us will satisfy the courts. Xo
sane man, familiar with the facts can
have the shadow of a doubt that the
Union Pacilic is granting special favors
to M. A. Moody in the shipment ofi
wheat or at least that souie arrangement. !
has been entered Into whereby he can
pay the Portland price if necessary
rather than that a pound of it should be
shipped by the people's boats. Months
ago, and before a grain of this year's
crop was ready for market the writer
was informed that zealous friends of Mr.
Moody were spreading the report among
the farmers of this county that no mat
ter how low the Regulator people put
the rate on wheat Mr. Moody would
have an arrangement with the Union
Pacific whereby he could pay a higher
price than, anybody. Mr. Moody may
never have authorized such a statement
but it was made notwithstanding and
the writer can furnish the name of his
informant a thoroughly truthful and
.reliable man whenever it becomes
necessary. Moreover it was no ' secret,
as numbers in the Dufur and Kingsley
neighborhood can testify. Of course the
result has been a picnic for the farmers,
esjecially those of Kliokitat county, but
the live or si cents a bualiel extra they
have receiwd for their wheat ia practi
cally the premium paid by the Union
'f otitic to obtain the farmers' co-opera-rtfon
in the company's effort to cruslvthe
people's boats. ..
. -Apart ftoiu the" political significance
of the late ejections the interests of good
-government and a pure ballot have been
highly Kiib.ierved by the new system of
othig known as the Australian ballot
i', V)n all hands, wherever tried, it
t8 to have met with general approval
nd we predict that time and experience
will justify the present impression in its
favor. With us it is yet an untried ex
periment but almost any system would
lje an improvement ori the old method
of the ward strikers coraUing voters in'a
back room, filling them full of whiskey,
fixing their tickets and leading them up
to the polls like so- many silly sheep.
The business, too, of buying votes at so
much a bead will be at au end because
the buyer will never know if the con
tract has been kept, the ward workers
will be kept away from the polls and
the voter" will be permitted to . cast his
ballot quietly and without interference
from anyone. The new systein will be a
vast improvement on the old because if
will far more nearly give an expression
of thts people's-choice of the candidates
for office.

to ftink an artesian well. The Lnjou- j
Journal says it ia proposed that each'
farmer to be benefitted shall pay 10 cents
an acre into a fund to be used for this
I purpose, and this assessment on the
100,000 acres owned on the flat would
raise a sum large enough to sink a, drill
from 1500 to 2000 feet if necessary. The
farmers will probably approve this plan,
as the cost for each individual' will be
small and the benefits to be derived
therefrom' will be large.
A loan i Singing In Russia,
What Mine, Albani related to her in-,
terviewer as one of her most remarkable
"experiences was her treatment in Russia
at the royal marriage, where the singers,
she observed, are all considered aa serv
ants. "Well," she says, "it was most
strange. We were all put in a sort of
balcony wMch looked down upon the
banqueting scene below, and as each of I
our turns came to . sing we went to a
little opening and sang through it. What
amused me was this, that all the time
we were trying to sing onr best and pro
duce our notes more effectively, the clat
ter of knives and forks still went on, and
to make all complete, the singer might
be in a most . impressive passage and
right in the midst of it, when, quite re
gardless of the uncomplaining singers,
there would be flourish of trumpets and
somebody would get np and propose a
toast. I was more fortunate than Mme.
Path, for she was interrupted in the
! middle of her solo.

"A Large llluckflsli.
Mrs. T. Li. Watson takes the prize for
big blackfisb caught in Black Bock har
bor this year and for many other years
also. General T. L. Watson, T. W.
Pearsall, Mrs. Watson and Captain O.
Penfield were fishing Friday off the
spindle near Penfield reef. Mrs. Watson
was usihg a light rod, and suddenly her
line was struck by something, of unusual
size. She pulled in till the rod bent
nearly double, and then, declining as
sistance, passed the rod back; as the fish
could not be lifted by it, and pulled in
at the line "hand over hand."
The line was light but it held, and
she brought ' to the surface and safely
landed in the boat a blackfish, which
being taken ashore and immediately
weighed, pulled down the scale at seven
pounds plump. Captain Penfield says it
is the biggest blackfish caught in Black
Rock harbor iri ten years. Bridgeport

Value of Houses In England.
it may be gathered from the annual
report of her majesty's commissioners of
inland revenue that more than one-third
of the whole annual value of houses and
messuages in England and Wales is to
be found in London, 'and more than one
fourth that of the United Kingdom. The
annual value for London in 1890 was
35,153,003, and for the United Kingdom
138,580,982. London Tit-Bits. .
Working The in for a .Joli;
This man Rork, who is organizing
farmers' alliances, was thrown out of a
job by the dissolution of the prohibition
party. He had to have employment
so he caught onto the alliance scheme
and is working it for all it is worth.
He's a daisy friend of the farmer or any
body else. Salem Statesman.
The Beardstovn IUinoian has the fol
lowing : "Absolute rest and freedom from
annoyance" is what Jay Gould needs, his
physicians says, but these blessings are
only offered by the grave. There is one
trip Jay can't make without hesitating
awfully. The grave has low rates, excel
lent accommodations and absolute free
dom from annoyances, yet Jay pauses in
uncertainty about taking stock in it. His
doctors are beginning to think lie's afraid
he might put his foot in it.
