city today.
Peter Mohr, of Hood River, was in
town today.
J. A. Vaughan and Geo. MeLeod of
Kingsley were in town today.
Mr. A, ;D. McDonald"-of Monkland,
gave this office a pleasant call today.
Two cases of "drunk and disorderly"'
were entered on the tecorder's docket
last night.
We are pleased to learn that the wife
of M. J. Anderson, of Dufur, who has
been quite sick is improving.
Mr. and Mrs. George Rice and Mrs.
' Elizabeth Soutberland," of Boyd, leave

Reports come to us from the country
south of The Dalles as far as Tygh Ridge
that it commenced raining there yester
day morning and rained all day and all
last night. -
Owing to the fact that something went
wrong with the electric light last night
as the Waldrop children were about to

was postponed till tonight at the usual
hour.
A. J. Brigham of Dufur is in town.
He informs us that the business of the

At the teachers' institute held here
last August, a resolution was passed in
structing the superintendent to' appoint
a committee of two to assist- him in ar
ranging a plan for grading the schools of
the county. This committee, consisting
of Superintendent Shelly, Professor' M. '
W. Smith, of this city, and Professor P.
A Snyder, of Hood River, will meet in
this city next Saturday and formulate a
plan according to their instructions ,
which will be submitted to the teachers
of the county for their consideration and
discussion during the holidays. -
The trouble that a large number ei-
perienced last night with their electric
light arose from what the electrician calls
'Too heavy grounds on thf line." In
other words the hiain line of the incan
descent touched the ground in two
places and the result was that the
safety fuse at the station was burned
out. In plain English it was the resuH
of nn accident that could neither have
been foreseen nor avoided. It is one of
those accidents connected with this
mysterious force that might not happen
in a century and again that might
happen at any time.
. Two Orand Opening.
The openings of W. E. Garretson and
Snipes & Kinersly's last Saturday night
wererSba'biv the largest affairs' of the
kind eves-held in this city.-- Garretson's
store was so full that 'it seemed as if
hundreds had tf go away without' get
ting in. ;'At One time no less than 152
.ladies were packed in the room, though
how they got there or got out alive after
they were there it is impossible to tell.:
Mr. Garretson gave away 187 tickets
which were' all put in a basket and
thoroughly shaken up and at. a conven
ient time Miss Grace Marden was blind
folded and drew out the lucky number
20, which was held . by Miss Jennie
Marden, which entitled her to a hand
some sliver bon bon basket. The larger
store of Snipes & Kinersly was at times
packed fe, the door. One hundred and
twenty-five souvenirs in the form of
handsome frosted figures - were - given
away but this number certainly did not
go half way. As an evidence .of the rush
of ladies that gathered here Fit may be
mentioned, that the janitor for the night,
a handsome young bachelor carpenter,
named" William McCrum" of this city
was driven by the pressaof ladies out of
the back door about 8 o('clock ariefwas
not able to get back again' for four:Bolid
hours. No such crowd ever gathered at
an opening before during the thirteen
years experience of the "firm. Both
stores exhibited displays in their res
pective lines fha,t.were a credit to the
city. One of Snipes& Kinersly's' win
dows was filled with an endles's'-'variety
of Japanese curios, the other with hand
some dressing cases. The immense
ranges of show cases , stretched , on each
side of the store were filled with every
thing in the line of useful and orna
mental brie a brae that art could diverse
or good taste suggest.' Here was a case
filled with all kinds of old and new
narlor games and counters. Yonder
another filled with perfumery or fancy
toilet" articles. One special feature of
the evening was the art exhibit, contain
ing handsome copies of the works of the
old masters done by hand and at reason
able rates, and a charming collection of
photographs of Oregon scenery of which
this house has the controf for all East
ern Oregon. These Oregon i?cenes are
the handsomest little souvenirs we have
ever seen in that line.
Mr. Garretson's windows and show
cases were filled with silver and plated
ware in everything useful and orna
mental conceivable from a gents' satin
finish silver shaving mug to a silver tea
set, gold and silver watches in endless
variety of style and finish, every con
ceivable style of brooch and pin and
ring and ornaments till one could well
feel the force of Mr. Garretson's state
ment, "I try to keep everything in my
line that a lady or gentleman is l-'kely
to need or desire." ,

A year ago the Klickitat Leader printed
the following under the caption "Put
the boat back :" "How long, how long
must the people of Klickitat suffer at
the hands of this monopoly which with
its influence and money has driven every
opposition boat off the river as soon as
put on ? Which with its influence felt in
congress and upon, the men sent by con
gress to open the river have kept the
locks from being opened. It is time to
stop this kind of work., The people are
now at the mercy of this grinding, greedy
money-making concern which nas no
respect for them or their representatives
but the day will come when all these
things will be remembered against the
company.. If the boat cannot be run
without losing money whv not take it
off altogether and let someone put on a
boat that can make money and that
Will accomodate the people, instead of
leading them to depend upon it and
then stop when it is most needed."

the night of the 13th and continued
without cessation until the 26th and
with the exception of one day snow fell
the remaining days of" the month, r isk
ing a fall of 054 inches of snow. .

Governor Fennoyer Favors Crisp.
The correspondent of the New .York-
UWbrZd -yesterday asked Governor Pen-
noyer .his . choice for speaker of 'the
houseT- The governor.ircplied :
-,. "I consider-. the selection of Crisp as a
speaker of the greatest advantage to the
democratic party, believing as I do that
he would favor legislation by which we
could return to the sound policy of the
government, observed for more than
eighty years from its foundation, which
required the free coinage of both gold
and silver, and that he - would . also
favor the expulsion from tne statute
books of congress of the privilege now
given to every money' lender in the land
to dishonor a portion of the national
currency." .1 -ciu.-v

A Preventive for Cronp.
We want every mother fo kntJw that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness ; then the
child appears to have taken a cold or a
cold may lave accompanied the hoarse
ness from the start. After that a pecul
iar rough cough is developed, which is
followed by tho croup. The time1 to act
is when the child first becomes -hoarse;
a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy will prevent the attack. Even
after a rough cough' has appeared the
disease may be prevented by ubing this
