The Chronicle is the Only Paper in
The Dalles that Receives the Associated
Press Dispatches.
TWO OF A KIND.
A few days ago the Chbonicle made
mention of the fact that a merchant of
this city was shipping his goods by the
Baker. In commenting upon it these
words were used :
There is no remedy left for the people
nothing they can do, save let severely
alone every merchant who turns traitor
to the best interests of the people.
When the merchants of this city are
standing shoulder to shoulder loyally,
as ne man, with only one exception, in
the support of the Regulator, the
Chronicle does not propose to be silent
and allow that man or any other man to
reap an advantage over the rest. If a
merchant becomes a traitor to the peo
ple for the sake of saving 15 cents on a
sack of sugar let him keep hia sugar.
The people in that case ought not to buy
it and we greatly mistake their temper
if they will.
The Chronicle did not then and does
not now suppose that outside the em
ployes of the Union Pacific there are ten
men in Wasco county who do not heartily
approve the spirit that prompted these
remarks. It was no wanton assault. It
was in no sense inspired by a desire to
injure anyone- It was not writien in a
heat of passion or revenge. Every word
was carefully weighed and every word
was written under a stern sense of the
duty the Chkon-icxe supposed it owed to
the public. It was only an incident in
a battle the Chbonicle had been waging
in the people's interests from the time
the Union Pacific-began its war upon
the Regulator till the Baker was tied up.
The shipment referred to was no secret:
It was no secret that a sign had been
placed in front of the gentleman's store.
Yet the Chronicle was the only paper
that mentioned, we had almost said
dared to mention it. ' The others were
dumb as oysters. During all the anxious
and critical weeks that the Regulator
was fighting for her life they had noth
ing to say save to impugn the motives
of the Chronicle or excuse their apathy
by stating that the Regulator did not
need the support of the press ; but a
solitary reproof for the action of the
Union Pacific in cutting rates and carry
wheat for nothing to prevent the peo
ples' boats from getting it never. All
they did, absolutely all, as if to show
their sympathy was with the railroad,
was to find fault with the Chronicle.
And so the Sun comes out and 'says it
was mean of the Chronicle to attempt
- a boycott and then the Times-Mountaineer
like a blind parrot, says :
This in a mean, dirty insinuation
'against the merchants of "this city, and
if the editor did not have the courage
-and maniiood to name the man he
-should not have mentioned the matter
tau. ,
Gentlemen of the Sun and Times-
Mountaineer the Chronicle will not
name the man to please you or anyone
else. You know who he is fully as well
as we do and seeing you are so deeply
sensitive of the honor of the "merchants"
of this city against, whom this "mean,
dirty insinuation" has been uttered, the
Chronicle respectfully suggests that
you name him yourselves. It will be
the fii st time you ever said a word to
hurt the feelings of the Union Pacific.
Gentlemen of the Sun and' Mountaineer
you dare not name the man. .'You
would lose the advertising patronage of
the Union Pacific if you did. You're a
pretty pair of editors, you are. -'
The following paragraph, said to have
been uttered by President Lincoln has
been very extensively, published in
farmers' alliance and other pessimistic
journal : ......
Yes, we may all congratulate ourselves
tnat the cruel war w drawing to a close
But 1 we in the near future a crisis aris
ing tliut unnerves me and causes me to
tremble for the safety of my country.
As a result of the war, corporations have
been enthroned, and an era of corruption
in high place9 will . follow. The .money,
power of the country will endeavor to
prolong iU reign by working upon the
prejudices of the people, until all the
wealth is aggregrted in a few hands and
the Republic destroyed. I feel at this
moment more anxiety for the safety of
my country than ever before, even in
.. the mid-t of war. God grant that my
Hue)ic:on8 may prove groundless.
It now turns out that the well known
prohibition jar.er the Voice hasreeeived
trout John G. Xicolay, who with John
Hay, has written the moat elaborate
hhtory f Abraham Lincoln yet pub
)ilu!. a bta'tetiient to the effect' that
while he and Mr. Hay had made a care
ful catalogue of all the writings and
utterances of Mr. Lincoln they could
find, there was nothing in all the vast
collection that bore any resemblance to
the statement in question and that they
believed it to be a forgery. The Voice
offers a reward of $10 to the first person
who will give definite information as to
the origin of the alleged quotation.
There is very little chance that the
monev will ever be claimed.
The 6teamer Dalles city is making it
unpleasant for the old transportation
companies on the lower river. A short
time ago the city of Vancouver shipped
their fire engine to Portland and return
on the Undine, for which, that boat
charged the sum of $18. Some time
previously the Dalles City had performed
the same service for $5.00 Very natur
ally the press of Vancouver commented
on the difference between the two
charges in a manner not complimentary
to the Undine. Now the parser of the
boat comes out in a letter to the Colum
bian and justifies his freight charge on
the grounds that the owners of the Un
dine paid, only a short time ago, the
sum of $147, taxes into the city treasury
of Vancouver and buy all their wood at
that place, while the city gets nothing
from the Dalles City, excepting the
monthly wages of the wharfinger. The
The Columbian suggests that the city
authorities of Vancouver should look
out that the Undine does not get a
chance to get back the remainder of the
$147 of taxes. " .
NORTHWEST NEWS.
Charley Pitt, an Indian policeman,
and four other Indians, three women
and one man, left the Klamath reserva
tion four weeks ago to go to Eagle point
to mill. They expected to hunt some in
the Mountains, both going and coming,
but Agent Mathews has not heard from
them since they left, and fears that they
have been snowed in in the mountains
and may suffer greatly, if they have not
already" perished.
The Grant County News publishes this
pertinent paragraph: "Now that our
farmers are raising more grain than for
merly Grant county's assessmeut roll
should show an increased number of
swine. Feed them the refuse grain, and
let us have home-grown bacon and lard.
The assessment roll for this year shows
236 head of swine. How are these to
make a taste for over 5000 people since
the day of miracles is over.
A man by the name of Morton, with
his wife and two childien, recently from
Minnesota, were turned out of a Eugene
hotel about two weeks ago for failing to
pay board. Morton started with his
family for the Kincaid donation claim,
saying he intended to cut wood. He
took them to Mr. Judkins' place and
left them, saying he was going twenty
miles up the valley and would return in
a day or two. He had not been heard
from at last accounts, and is supposed to
have abandoned his family.
Ira P. Chandler, who died recently at
Bonanza ot ulcer of the stomach, aged
55 years, wj.s one of Klamath conntv's
early settlers. Born in Illinois, 1832, he
crossed the plains when merely a boy,
in the .503. He came to Klamath county
from Jackson comity as a volunteer in
the Modoc war. Mr. Chandler bad
been a resident of Bonanza something
more thau ten years previons to his
death, and had accumulated consider
able property in the stock and agricul
tural business. He leaves a wife, and
his mother, Mrs. Holton, of, Jackson
county, is still living. '
