LOCAL BREVIT7KS.
Horace Rice of Lower Fifteen Mile
came into town this morning.
Fred Krussow of Grass Valley gave
the Chronicle a pleasant call today.
It is not a good time to read the Bible
while your wife is out in the rain cutting
stove wood.
Crook county has let the contract for
wooden booths for the next election, as
required by the Australian ballot law.
The sum of $400 has been raised
towards constructing a telephone line
between Wasco andMoro in Sherman
county. ,
It would not be a bad idea to hire a
small boy to clean the lamps of the arc
lights. It would certainly improve
their light-giving qualities.
Professor Ingalls has received about
f30, in the form of subscriptions to a
und to be used in the purchase of books
if reference for the Wasco Academy.
Captain John Lewis, register of the
land office at this place, has obtained a
month's leave of absence and will start
for Minneapolis and Washington to
morrow. At the Cascade Locks one day last
week a government derrick fell on an
old man named Harry Crocker and ra
sulted in a compound fracture of the fore
arm. Dr. Caudiani had him sent to St.
Vincent's hospital.
V. C. Brock, couflty clerk of Sherman
county, is in the city. Mr. Brock says
the present year has put the farmers of
Shniman county in fine condition. One
man ia spoken of who cleared off, by this
year's crop, a debt of $7000 and "has a
balance now to his credit in the bank.
A very large acreage has been sown to
wheat this fall and Sherman county will
soon have abandoned spring sowing al-.
together except for such crops as oats
and barlev. , - ... .
The Farmers Institute Of Dufar Con.
eluded.
The closing, session of the institute
opened promptly at 7 o'clock p. m. with
an attendance of about 300 persons.
After a song from the choir Miss Annie
Dufur read an essy on "The Beautiful"
which was full of sublime thoughts ex
pressed in chaste and ellegant diction.
This was followed by a comic essay on
"Poultry Raising" by E. C. Warren
' which fairly convulsed the house with
laughter ; then a song by the choir fol
lowed by a recitation by Miss I.Thomas,
and then the meeting was entertained
by an address from , State Lecturer
Holder on the question, "Should Farm
ers Organize." Mr. Holder took strong
ground in favor of farmers' organiza
tions, insisting that every farming com-
' munity should have its own organiza
tion. Every benefit that labor has wrung
from capital has been obtained by
organization. At the close of this really
excellent and sensible address Chairman
Dufur took the floor and among other
earnest words said "Farmers are today
as much slaves to the combined in
Cjnce of capital as were the neggoes to j
their southern slave owners before the
war. To rid themselves of these chains
farmers ought to and must join some
farmers' organization. Then facing Mr.
Holder who temporarily occupying the
chair he ' asked the question, "Now
Brother Holder what are you going to do
about' it? But before that gentleman
had time to answer, Frank . Lee of the
Northwest Eaciffc ' Farmer sprang to his
feet and exclaimed "Support the Regu
lator, "-which was answered by hearty
applause from the audience. After an
other song from the choir the question
box was opened and the following ques
tions were read and discussed with in
terest . and animation. Does cultiva
tion tend to increase the growth of corn
and tomatoes j.n Eastern Oregon.
What is the best remedy for blight on
tomatoes, a question which no one was
able to answer Is the grange worth
what it cost? What is fiat money?
"Should a man be allowed to sit on a
jury who cannot read or write? Should
farmers be compelled to fence against
stock running at large? Is rain-making'
a success, and if so should -not the
farmers of Wasco and Sherman coun
ties try to induce the rain-maker to
come here? Why do" not the farmers
hold together like other working men?
Wiiat is the best method for killing wild
oats? How hot should water be' for
spraying trees? What is the best way
to grow celery? How do you keep lice
from fowls? What is the best way to
pick a chicken? How can the step' of a
horse that interferes be changed? , Can
you balance an egg on a thread? which
was answered by Mr. Heisler who per
formed the feat of balancing an egg on a
spool of thread", to the no small amuse
inent.
of the audience. The closing address
was made by Professor BerchTold who
complimented the institute by saying
that it was the best attended of any he
had known during the year. Then in a
few well-chosen words the professor
thanked the cnair and the pupils of the
Dufur echool for their valued assistance
in making the institute a success. He
also thanked the authorities of theM. E.
church for granting the use of the build
ing; expressed on behalf of his fellow
professors his deep obligation to the
chairman and to the ladies of Dufur for
receiving them into their homes and
closed by extending a cordial invitation
to any present who might find it con
venient to visit the college at Corvallis
and get better acquainted with the
work being done there. The meeting
then unanimously passed formal votes
of thanks to the professors, the chair
man, the choir, the school pupils, Dufur
brass band, theM. E. church and the
representatives of the press. The audience
then rose to its feet and all joined in sing
ing the beantiful song "God Be With
You" and thus ended what all the partic
ipants unanimously voted a pleasant and
profitable farmers' institute.
Struck By A- Passing Tender.
Ralph Fonger a wiper in the employ
of the Union Pacific at this place was
struck this morning by the tender of a
passing locomotive and received injuries
from which he died a short time after.
Fonger was standing on the bridge east
of the company's round house playing, a
horse on the fcpout that carries off the
ashes and cinders of the locomotives,
when he was struck. He was carried to
the Columbia hotel where he lived long
enough to tell that he had received no
warning whatever by bell or whistle and
that the noise made by the hose playing
on the sheet iron spout prevented him
hearing the approach of the locomotive
from behind. Fonger was about 26
years of age and unmarried. His par
ents reside in St. Catherines Canada,
from which he " came to this country
about a year ago. He had been in the
employ of P. T. Sharp of Three Mile all
harvest and only left there a Jew weeks
ago. Fonger's hip was knocked out of
joint by the collision and it is believed
that he must have been injured intern
ally, as it is said blood came out of his
ears after bis death. Ether was ad
ministrated while the joint was being
put in place but the man never recov
ered wholly from its effects, although
the doctors assure us it was adminis
trated with great care. An inquest will
undoubtedly be held but 1 the company
bad not notified the' coroner at the
t'me of goiug to press.
A Happy Discovery.
One of the sufferers by the late fire,
found a trunk she had supposed lost or
burned, safely stored in the baggage
room at the Umatilla house this morn
ing, waiting a claimant. The trunk was
placed there by some one for safekeeping
the day of the fire, and' upon being
opened by the happy owner was foun.
packed with clothing and $350 in loin.
just as she had left it.

FONSECA'S TROUBLES.
His Opponents Demand the Impeach
ment of Himself and Ministers.
Valpabaiho, Chili, Nov. 27 Advices
from Rio Janeiro, Brazil, state that
Fonseca, besides abdicating the dictator
ship, has renounced his title of commander-in-chief
and retired to private
life. The papers are, however, demand
ing the impeachment of Fonseca, and
also of his ministers, on the ground that
they are responsible for the money
spent during his short-lived dictator
ship. The governors of all the states
have . proclaimed in favor of the new
president, Peixotto. It is rumored that
the federal capital will be removed from
Rio Janeiro to Nictheroy.
General Ossorio, who commanded the
insurgent army in Rio Grande do Sul,
made a demand on the Upper Uruguay
squadron that it give its adhesion. This
demand met with refusal and the squad
ron has gone to anchor in Argentine
waters.
. Anti-Harrison Movement.
I ndianapolis, Nov. 28. A. meeting
attended by over fifty prominent repub
licans of the state is being held at the
Grand hotel today for the . purpose of
organizing the anti-Harrison sentiment
in the state and crystalizing it into a
solid phalanx in support of Blaine at the
LMinneapqlis convention. The meeting
declared for Blaine as the most available
candidate. Harry Tincher, one of the
promoters of the "meeting, said tonight
that they had the certain assurance from
Mr. Blaine that he would do nothing to
embarrass the movement. He says they
have control of the four northern dis
tricts of the state, and are organizing
every district as rapidly as possible.
About the World's Fair.
Washington, Nov. 28. Ex-Senator
Palmer, president of the national com
mission of the World's Columbian Ex
position, has submitted to President
Harrison the report of the commission
in regard to the progress and condition
of the. exposition work. It concludes
with a strong endorsement of the action
of the board of control in applying for a
loan of $5,000,000 from the general gov
ernment. This report and the report of
tne board ot lady managers, previously
submitted to the president, will form the
basis of a special message to congress
sometime in December..
Spanish Minister Ordered Home.
Valparaiso, Nov. 28. Senor Ordonza,
the Spanish minister to Chili, has been
ordered home. The Venzuelan'go,vern
ment paid at Caracas, a short time ago,
a sum of money to Spain It is now re
ported that Senor Ordonza's accounts
are short. It transpires however, that
the errors in the accounts were made by
the secretary of the Spanish ' legation.
Minister Ordonza, while responsible for
the act of his subordinates, is in no way
culpable in the matter, his long diplo
matic end naval services placing him
beyond the breath of suspicion.
. After the Mexican Bandit.' -
Laeedo, Tex., Nov. 28. Captain
Hardie's troop of the Third cavalry have
returned from a two weeks' scout down
the Rio Grande in quest of the Mexican
revolntionist Garcia. 'He reports it im
possible to secure any definite informa
tion of Garcia's whereabouts. Mexican
troops are pouring in over the Mexican
National railroad from the interior of
Mexico, and are being hurried down the
river to take the places of the frontier
soldiers, whom the Mexican government
evidently began to distrust.
Guatemala is Fortifying!.
San -Francisco, Nov. 28. Guatemala
is going to fortify its frontier. Forts
are to be built between that state and
San Salvador, and the powder for the
guns is going from San Francisco. Next
Monday the Echooner Neptune will go
into the stream and load powder for the
San Jose de Guatemala. It will be con
signed to the Guatemalan government.
Will Probably Cause a Strike.
London, Nov. 28. It is highly proba
ble that the action taken today by the
coal mineowhers, in South Wales and
Monmouthshire, in abolishing the slid
ing scale, will tend to precipitate a strike
by the miners in those sections. The
announcement affects 70,000 men in the.
coal districts mentioned.
Ben Young, of Astoria, who has
lately been taking in the Sound country,
says that at Seattle "dead'.' is no name
for the condition of the town. - Business
there ia none, and money why the
showing of a $20 piece is enough to
create a riot. Real estate is deader than
what do you call it? The banks own
the town. The only way to borrow $20
is to give $21 cash security. The hotels
are invaded by anxious individuals
every now and then, trying to size a
fellow up. . It isn't safe to go out alone
in dayligbffor dark.- The "hold-up" is
on the alert day and night, and the only
way to travel is to take a hack or Guer
ney and go about in disguise.
Thursday a large white swan was
brought to Pendleton by John Jordan,
who tells a singular story of its .capture.
The young man was near his father's
place on east Birch creek, and saw some
eagles chasing the swan in the air above
him. The unfortunate swan, ' in its
anxiety to escape, flew directly over the
young man's head-, and by a quick jump
he managed to seize it by the neck and
bring it down, the disappointed eagles
fiying angrily away. The East Oregonian
thinks this storv may be doubted by
some, but John has the live swan to
prove it-
Eastern Oregon is in it. The total
yield of wheat in the Willamette valley
ia placed at 4,000,000 bushels. Umatilla
county alone produced as much. East
ern 'Oregon and Washington combined
produced over 10,000,000. Still those
"webfeet" people have no idea of as
much. Athena Press. .
