' The Chronicle is the Only Paper in The Dalles that Receives the Associated Press Dispatches. It will be difficult to keep the silver question from becoming an imprtant is sue in the coming presidential campaign. It has long been taken for granted that the present session of congress will at tempt to pass a free coinage bill, and no one doubts its ability to do so. In the house the democrats have a majority of three-fourths. In the the senate a suf ficient number of far western Republi cans are pledged "to free coinage to make it possible to pass the measure in that body. A free coinage bill has be"en al ready introduced and it is announced that the republicans will content them selves with voting and speaking against it Dut will attempt no speech-making to kill time or filibustering or intriguing to prevent a vote. They will simply act so as to laave all the responsibility of the measure on the democrats. If the democrats assume this responsibility the president will certainly veto the bill And as they cannot command a sufficient inajority to over-ride the veto the ques tion will be carried into the campaign. In that event it is hard to determine what the result may be. Whatever strength free coinage may have in the tar west it will undoubtedly meet with bitter opposition ia the money centers of the east; but the democrats can pass, a free coinage bill if they want to and it will be interesting tn imtrli l,ot u.;ii be done with the opportunity. The gentlemanly agent of the Union Pacific at this place, Mr. Lytle, informed 'the Chkosice man this morning that 'the Baker will make her last trip to the Cascades today. The Chronicle has -said some hard things about the com ; pany but at this moment it has no feel ing uut mat oi grauiuae towards it. 'There is not local business enough for both boats and the company will have learned by this time that no induce ments they could offer is sufficient to buy up a -eomtnunity united almost as one man in support of their own boat. J.I the company gives us the river (and we'll have.it whether or no) it can have the railroad and our blessing with it, which itself is no small thing. One hundred citizens of Milwaukee, representing a. capital of several mil lions, have signed their names to a :guarantee fund of $100,000 to pay the ex penses of the democratic national con tention should Milwaukee secure it. A "booming' committee of 100 has been chosen to go to Washington. ' The members of tle committee will wear -dark suits with cream colored triin ; tilings and one of the big breweries - will send a ear load of beer to Washing vton for free distribution. The attempt :.to capture a democratic convention with iree ieer is contrary to all precedent. o.ne scneuie worn worK. There is nothing small about the Urant County Newt. It offer to take young cattle on subscription. ItltlEF STATE MEWS. , Typhoid fever is raging in Myrtle point, Coos county. The farmers report the ground being wet deeper at the present time than has -been known for many years, at this sea son of thb year. If Sherman county doesn't produce a healthy crop this year we will always think it ought to. H asco Newt. D.C. Ireland & Co. have sold -their newspaper plant to the Coming Century Publishing Co., and have discontinued their papers, the Expre and Alliance Farmer. The new proprietors will move their properly across the river to the 1 new Oregonian buildine as soon as that structure is ready tor tnem. Mrs. Cyrus Westlake, who with her husband resided, in Linn ' county for many years, died in her home in San Jose, Cal., on the 11th inst. The de . ceased and her" husband were Oregon pioneers, having settled in Linn county in 1360. They lived there until about ten years ago "when they moved to Cali fornia and engaged in fruit growing. . It is not alwavs that honor and inter- . est both pull together in Oregon politics, but if they don't pull on the same ' line against letting Simon step cat-like across the threshhold of the federal judgeship, it will be a cold day for both I The momenc the shadow of Simon strikes hat seat of justice, that moment the honor of Oregon will point its snow white finger in that direction, and ' the voice of the honor of Oregon will be heard crying "Infamy!" Klamath Star. The libel suit of the Zambesi against the whalebaek steamer ";Wetmore for $250,000 is the. subject , of considerable criticism, says the historian ; and. the general .'opinion is that while it was natural for the captain and owners to set the amount as high as possible there is not the remotest chance, for them to get anything like the amount thay ask for. The wheat crop of 1891 is the greatest in our history ; the tobacco crop is the greatest. The. corn crop of 1891 it the second greatest, and the cotton crop is one of the greatest in quantity and the equal of the best in quality.-, The veget able crop pas never better! and the fruit crop was never so prolific. The orange crops of Florida and California are so fine that importation . of oranges from me jyieaiteranean is aDout emit out. John Jordan, of Wasco county, who was comumtea to ine - penitentiary a few days since to serve a two yelirs' sentence for horse-stealing, is but a lit tie over 16 years of age, just too old to get into the reform school. He has a brother, also in the penitentiary, who is only I8 years of age, and two of their cousins not very much older, are also be hind the same walls, committed for lar ceny in Polk county. The state reform school board, in securing authority from the last legislature to refuse admittance to this institution to any lad over 16 years of age have laid themselves liable to the charge that they were more anx ious to make it easv for the suDerfnten- dent of the school than they were to re form youthful criminals. Oregonian. Parliamentary Sanction Not Needed. London, Dec. 15. The Standard's Berlin correspondent, referring to the reciprocity arrangement between Ger many and the United States, says: ,:The reduction in the duty on Amer ican corn and the removal of the duty on German sugar was effected by the simple exchange of notes, and parlia mentary sanction ia not needed." They are now Free. London, Dec. 15. ToUay Miss St. John, through her counsel, applied to the justice before whom the divoree case was tried, asking for a judicial separa tion from her husband", Marius. The application was granted, and now they are practically free. The court ordered Miss St. John and Marius each to . pay their own costs in the action undeoanter action brought by them for divorce. Tn n of the Toiee: Among the-sznaJl things as- generally considered, but great ones as I look at them, is the use of the voices Here is- a sample of a very common conversation,, such as we hearin many homesr "Marlay did yaa tell Tops to go for the milk?' "Hehr'Did yora tell Tom whit I said?" "What did you tell me to tell him?" To go for the milk." ' No reply. Then comes the question agamv "Maria, win you telK me if you cent lomT "Yes, I did."" Here is a great waste of both time ahd strength, and generally of patience as well. The habit with many people is very persistent not to answer directly, but to first comjiel a repetition of a ques tion or a remark. In the course- of a year such duplicate- remarks, if put to gether, would make- a large - volume. The habit should be- formed of careful listening; and direct responding. Some persons respond indirectly in order to -gain time. They are. made tip with a lack of straightforwardness. : They never wish to commit themselves promptly but most persons who indulge the habit are simply heedless and indifferent to others' rights. A few have preoccupied minds, and a question has to be repeated J two or three times to- get through the Circumambient meditation. Mary E. Spencer in St. JLoui3 Globe-Democrat. Colors of Women. , Balzac, the French author, says that a woman is character finds- expression in. her. favorite color. A woman who pre fers orange or green gowns is, he thinks,, quarrelsome. . Those who sport yellow, hats or who go cladV in black without cause are not to-be-. trusted. White should indicate coquetry. Gentle and thoughtful 'women prefer pink. Pearl gray is the color of women who consid er themselves unfortunate. . Lilac is the shade particularly affected by .overripe beauties; therefore- lilac hats are mostly worn by mothers on their daughters' marriage day and by Women more than forty years old when they go visitingi-- San Francisco Argonaut. ; ' - He Kept Hi Word.
