LOCAL BREV1TIKS.
James Underhill, Qf Boyd, was in the

Mrs. Hope, of the Cascade Locke, is

R. E. Moreland, formerly in the em

in Portland, is visiting friends in the
city.
Mrs. J. Porter of Prineville, George P.
Sink, of Wasco, and Mark Collins of

J. C. Oliphant arrived from Portland
last night to temporarily assist in the
office of the D. P. and A. N. Co. during
the absence of J. F. Hampshire.
From the Umatilla House register we
learn that M. Cavanaugh has arrived
from Iceland presumably, to spend the
winter in the warmer climate of Oregon.
German Lutheran service will be held
at the chapel on Ninth street next Fri
day at 10:30 a. m., and in the after
noon at 3 o'clock there will be a Christ
mas service for children. Everybody is
cordially invited to attend. A. Horn-,
Complaint is made at this office that
certain hoodlum boys are accustomed to
crush cranberries and throw them
against the show windows of the stores,
thereby causing a great deal of work
to clean them off every morning. ' Some
of thee hobos will, get heads pnt on
them some day and they richly deserve
it too. V . . '
Rev. A. C. Spencer received today by
mail a handsome lot of marriage certifi
cates and he announces that he is now
ready to tie the marriage knot in the
latest and most approved fashion. Boys
get your best girls and go right to Mr.
Spencer and get one of bid handsome
certificates and then go to A. Keller's
and get a present of a magnificent wed
ding cake. : '- ' :-': '. ',J- " '; ' 4 ,
The wedding cake offered by A. Keller
to the first' couple who would get mar
ried between now and Christmas, was
applied for this morning by a gentleman
well known in this city, who is to wed a
most worthy young Dallea lady " on
Christmas Eve. But and herein lies
the chance' that the said couple may
never get it it will be given to the
couple that gets married first. If the
reader contemplates marriage and wants
that cake ; he win have to Ret a move on
himself. "'" ' i " ' 5 "

As we reported yesterday Albert Mes
plie and William Avery were brought
into Justice Doherty's court yesterday
afternoon at 3 o'clock. They had
-already appeared in court and Avery
had plead guilty and Mesplie not guilty.
' The state was represented by .W. H.
Wilson and Mesplie was represented by
J. L. Story The -following witnesses
were sworn and examined on the part of
" the state; Joseph Chamberlin, Wolf
Shroeder, I. J. Norman, Con Howe and
Ralph V. Gibons. The only thing of
importance brought out by the witnesses
was the fact that Mesplie had partially
c$essed the crime to I. J. Norman.
Avery then made the following state
ment: "I am 26 years of age. I was born in
Fulton county, New York. I have been
in The, Dalles since last Jane I gen
erally follow bar tending. On Satuiday
night last, after leaving Shroeder's
saloon Chamberlin, Mesplie and I
walked up the street together. On the
way up I picked up a rock, and at
tempted to put it in my - pocket but it
fell through on the sidewalk. . I walked
on and Mesplie ' picked " it tip.. We led
the old man to the back of the China
house when we all stopped. Chamber
lin asked what we were going to do.
Just as be said that Mesplie struck him
with a rock. He fell backwards about
twenty feet.- When he fell, he fell on
his back and I held him down. , Mesplie
went through his pants pockets but said
he could find nothing. As Mesplie said
that the old man reached to his hip
pocket and handing out his purse, said :
'Take it, but leave me enough to go
home on ; Mesplie took the purse, but
could not open it. I took it and tore it
open. Some part of the money fell on
the ground and Mesplie picked it up
and put it in his pocket. I don't know
how much it was,: but he said it was
small' : change ? and showed ; me some.
There were $5 and some change left in
the purse. I asked Mesplie where he
intended to go and he said 'To Pendle
ton.' Then we went to Dan Baker's
and had a drink. We then came back
down town." On the way Mesplie said
he wanted half of the $5 I had. We
went into' the Umatilla house' and the
night clerk changed it for me and I gave
him $2.50 in the clerk's presence, We
then came out and went into McDonald
Brothers' saloon. We met Tom Allen
there. Mesplie told him he had $8.
Tom said, 'You had better let me keep
it for you.' Mesplie said he could take
care of it himself. : We then came out
and went up the street and Con Howe
arrested me."
Mesplie made no statement and the
court placed both defendants under
bonds of $2000 each for their appearance
before the next grand jury, in default of
which both prisoners were remanded to
the custodv of the sheriff.
Wascu County Has the Champion W heat
. Grower of the World.
Last week we copied a paragraph from
a Willamette valley exchange that made
tne claim that M. W. Belshaw of Farm
ington, Lane county, carried the honors
of the champion wheat grower of thel
world. The right of Mi. Belshaw to
these honors is disputed by a gentleman
of this county. In 1875 GeorgeH. Riddell
of Columbia precinct was living in Linn
count; . That year Mr, Riddell entered
at the Oregon state fair a sample bushel
of wheat grown on a ten-acre field on
his ranch hear Oakville in Linn county.
Mr. Belshaw entered part of a bushel
that lie had raised in his garden. Mr.
Riddell's wheat took the first premium
for the 'best ' bushel of white 'winter
wheat and the "sweepstakes for the best
bushel of wheat of any "kind. Colonel
I. R. Mores was then at the head of the
O. C. railroad company." The colonel
asked' Mr." Riddell for the half of his
prize bushel of wheat. ' The request was
granted and Colonel Mores sent Mr.
Riddell's wheat to the centennial exhi
bition - of 1876 where it was entered by
the O & C railroad company. It took
the sweepstakes premium against the
whole world." If Wasco" county cannot
raise the best wheat in the world she
claims that she owns the man that did.
. Hurrah for the Melidelsshon. . :-

Sensible Conclusions. . .
"7 The executive eommittee of the Wash
ington . farmers , Alliance has issued
an address in which" they very' sensibly
say -. - ----- .. -
' As alliaance officers we propose to be
loyal to the principles set forth in this
.declaration and to allow each member
the privilege of a free American citizen
to vote as he pleases. And we do not
propose- to control or to be controled by
any party '. The proper attitdne of the
alliance politically is to be prepared' to
criticise or admire the 'action of any of
the parties, and if a new, party should
go into 'power'"to be justjas free to dis
cuss its merits or dements as we are
now those- in- power. S We advocate cer
tain principles which we wish to see in
corporated into the laws of the land, but
we are willing for the people to take
wnatever course they think the most
wise to 'secure the establishment of these
principles. .

. A Preventive for Croup. a
We'want every mother fo know that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never.-appe&rs without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness: theri1 the
child appears to have taken a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse
ness rrora the start. After that a pecul
iar rough cough is developed, which is
followed by tho croup,,. The time 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 uoing this
remedy as directed. '(.It has never been
known to fail. 2b cent; 50 cent and $1.
