The Chronicle is the Only Paper in
The Dalles that Receives the Associated
Press Dispatches.
Senator Pefier says' be will introduce a
bill in the coming congress directing the
secretary of the treasury to go Into the
markets and buy at current rates, from
time to time, all the gold and silver that
is offered and to pay for this in treasury
notes. Then taking this gold and silver
as a basis he would have the secretary
issue $1.50, additional for each dollar's
worth of bullion bought. This would at
once increase our circulating medium at
least a thousand million dollars and
would remedy; the senator thinks, 'one
of the great needs of the times. Such is
Mr. Pefler's scheme for increasing the
circulating medium, so far as he has re
vealed it; but it has one sad deflect
which the ingenious mind of the senator
may yet supply. The senator has not
yet formulated a plan by which his new
dollars will find their way into the
lonely recesses of the poor man's pocket
without the said poor man's giving an
equivalent in labor or commodities to
havo them placed there. This is' the
crowning defect of every financial scheme
the present writer has ever known in a
life time of over half a century. To have
the circulating medium increased to a
thousand dollars per capita is a matter
of infinitely less concern to us than it is
to know how we may acquire (honestly
and honorably, of coarse) one solitary
dollar without giving for it a suitable
quid pro quo. Let the currency infla
tionists commit themselves to the solu
tion of this problem first and then we
shall have some valuable suggestions te
offer as to the kind of dollars we want to
find their way" into our pockets.
The editor of the Times-Mountaineer
offers to stake $50 that his paper is more
extensively read than any paper pub
lished in Wasco or adjoining counties.
As yet no one has taken him up. : . .-
The above is clipped from . the Moro
Observer and the Chronicle has this to
say about it. The phrase "more exten
sively read" is buncome, because it is
jnot capable oi proof. The Chboxicle.
never gambles and has not f50 to spare,
but it makes the following offer:- It
will pay i 5 each to the building funds of
the Baptist and Congregational churches
- tf this city if it cannot prove by its
books that it has more buna-Ada weekly
subscribers in Wasco and Sherman
- counties than the Times-Monntaineer,
and that it has two subscribers for its
-daily edition for every one that the
Times-Muunlaineer has for its daily edi
tion. The CnRONicxE will na.ne a per-'
on to examine the subscription lists of
both papers and the Times-Mountaineer
will name another, they to name a third
and the respective editors of the two
papers shall swear to the bona fide
character of the lists furnished. Now
put up or shut up. .- .
Social Iife In London iu iJliimjetU's
Time.
W. D. Howells iu Harper's. ,
In these narrow limits it. is impossible
to reproduce much of Elizabethan life.
Here, however, are certain details :
The ordering of the household was
strict. Servants and prentices were up
at six in the summer and seven in the
winter. No one, under any pretence,
except that of illness, : was to absent
himself from morning and evening
prayers ; there was to be no striking, no
profane language. Sunday was a clean
shirt day. Dinner was at eleven, sup
per at six. " There was no public or
private, office which was not provided
with a bible. In the better classes
there Was a general enthusiasm for
learning of all kinds. The ladies, imi
tating the example of the. queen, prac
ticed embroidery, wrote beautifully,
played curious instruments, " learned
how to sing in parts, dressed with as
much .magnificence as they could afford,
danced the coranto and lacolta as well
as the simple hey, and studied languages
Latin, Greek, and Italian.
The Empire State Flyer. "
"The largest engine ever built in the
Schenectady Locomotive Works was
completed on Monday. Its number is
893, and it has been constructed for the
purpose of hauling the fastest train in
world The Empire State Express
across the State New York to Buffalo
at speed about one mile per minute in
cluding stops. The drivers "of the big
fellow are six feet and a half in diameter,
the biggest ever turned out of the shop.
The drivers on the ordinary locomotives
average about 5 feet ten "inches. The
engineer and fireman wi'l be 'perched
upon seats in the cab eight feet and a
half from the rails. The boiler is what
is known as the "wagon top," of spang
steel one half inch in thickness, and its
diameter is 58 ii.ches. The boiler is
logged with asbestos cement instead of
wood, which is generally used. The fire
box is 96 3-16 inches long. 40 7-8 inches
wide and 70 1-4 inches deep in. front and
58 1-4 inches in the rear. The cylinders
are 19 by 24 inches. The wheels of the
tender will de 36 inches in diameter, and
will be the same as are used in drawing
room cars. The engine alone, it is esti
mated, will weigh about 125,000 pounds,
or 62 1-2 tons..
Master-Mechanic Buchanan, has. de
vised an serial plow, to be attached to
the engine of the State Express for the
purpose of lessening the resistance of
the air. The plows aro to be of steel and
V-shaped. They will be put on in front,
and will extend from a few inches above
the tracks to the top of the smokestacks,
the sharp point fronting. It is believed
.that this device will relieve the engine
of many hundred pounds of- resistance.

It occurs to us that the two gentle
men now canvassing the state for the
World's Fair are somewhat handicapped
by the fact that Portland, the largest
city in the state, a city, by the way
that could put up all the money needed
and never feel the loss of it, has not first
set the example of a liberal subscription
to this very laudable purpose. -The
moral effect of a generous subscription
bv the Portland people would undoubt
edly have a good effect upon the rest of
the" state. Outsiders have no very ex
alted ideas of Portland liberality and
until that city sets an example no great
. amount of enthusiasm will be displayed
by the rest of the state.
The profit of good roads is at. once
realized. England and Wales maintain
their system of roads for 4,000,000
a year. France maintains- 190,000 miles
" of road at $18,000,000. . At the rate of
expenditures for highway purposes, in a
single town of Westchester county
where the roads are verv bad the an
nual cost of maintaining 130,000 miles of
common dirt road would be more than
$70,000,000. This indicates sufficiently
the public profit from good roads, while
the profit of individual property owners
is almost incalculaole.
