The Chronicle is the Only Paper in
The Dalles that Receives the Associated
Press Dispatches.
The present agitation in favor of a
better evsteiu of making and maintain
ing county roads ought to result in some
thing more than mere talk. The insuf
ficiency of our present methods is fully
admitted. In point of fact we have no
roads in OregSn at least scarcely any.
Most of them are mere trails, some of
them "slides," scarcely any are worthy
of the name of roads. Our methods of
repairing could not be worse. Repairs
are hardly ever made at the right time
or in the right way. In the summer
time, after the crops are in the 'ground,
a little dust is scraped or shoveled in the
ruts, to be churned by passing wagon
wheels and blown away by the wind.
This churning goes on during the long,
dry summer, and by the time grain
hauling is half through the roads are
practically impossible except at great
risk to wagons and dr't vers. During any
rainy winter when the ground is not froz
en and always after the spring thaw-out
there is a time when hauling heavy loads
is not to be thought of. Road super
vising is a thankless task and the aver
age supervisor is glad to get through
with it. This last remark applies still
more forcibly to the'average worker-out
of iiiad lax. Oregon has tried this sys
tem long enough. We never will have
better roads till we adopt a new system.
The Chronicle believes that our roads
should be kept up by direct taxation
and that something ought to be done at
the next legislature to pass a law to
that effect. .
' ' .The Times Mountaineer says:
' The fact is, the Chboniclk, although
the opposition, boat pretends to be a
public enterprise and the editor of the
Times Mountaineer owns $200 in the en
terprise, receives every dollar that is
paid out for job work. " No benefit, ex
cept the regular advertisement, is re
ceived by the other papers in this city.
Please Mr. editor of the T. M. say
nothing more about owning $200 worth
of stock in the ."opposition boat." You
don't own a bean's worlh, and never in
vested a cent in . the enterprise. You
know how wicked it is to lie. Now
please don't, say anything more about
that 4-200 or you'll hear something you
don't want the public to know. The
Chronicle does not want to eay an
other word but you will not be allowed
to sail under false colors. So far as the
printing is concerned if it was worth a
"thousand dollars a minute the Chron
icle deserves it every cent. To give
-.any of it to the other papers of this city
" would be treason giving comfort and
succor to the' enemy. L
The Salem Journal says the whol
proposition of passing round the hat to
enable Oregon to be represented, at the
world's fair is a mistake. We have a
lingering impression that the Journal is
correct. The . hat racket wont work.
How would it do to try dynamite
bombs?

much and hard usage, is still in a good
state of preservation.
The fellows who burglarized the stores
at Turner a few evenings ago had a few
grains of humor in their make-up. At
one place where they secured a $5 Will

the amount taken. No name, however,
was signed to the receipt.
Twenty of the heaviest Tacouia prop
ertv ' owners tonight petitioned, the
ChatnloM 'f ("winiiieree to take action on j
the ch:ii"4c iunde by them that Pierce
county property has. been valued too

A thousand farmers or more were in

much will be plowed for summer fallow.
, A Union Pacific freight train was

and drove him off. .When outside the

words "Union Pacific" till each letter
seems eix feet long.

000 bonds furnished Edward Albertson,

the directors have been unable to secure
settlement with the Fidelity and Cas
ualty companv, no response having been
received to demands for the payment of
the $10,000 guarantee.
A petition is being circulated in Kla
math county -to have the name of Link-
ville changed to Klamath Falls by the
postoffice authorities, and ihe Sun is
booming the proposition with its wonted
enthusiasm. The idea advanced is that
the name would not only be more eu
phonious and more befitting a prospec
tive city of consequence than Linkville,
but that it would advertise the great
water power of the river between the
lakes, and make another Spokane Falls
of the town. '
James Poole, of Canyonvile, has been
sentenced to the. penitentiary for one
year for collecting $10 from the county

Knocked it out on a techmcalitv. The
crime being so old it was never brought
up again. Foole s two brothers are now
in the Oregon pen for stock stealing.

Dr. H. W. Dewey, of this city, had pe
titioned the board to revoke hie license
Dr. Reeves was notified to appear before
the board at Seattle at its next January
meeting, when the petition will be con
sidered. Dr. Reeves has placed - the
matter in the hands of Lawyers Calkins,
Shackleford & Calkins, and will contest
the petition. '.In similar wav, he
claims, the California statutes on this
point have been proven unconstitutional
and he believes the Washington law is
unconstitutional.

"Of course it hurts but vou must crin

given to persons troubled with rheuma
tism. "If vou will take the trouble to

the seat oi pain your rheumatism . will
disappear," is the modern and much
more satisiactory advice. oO cent bot

9A Preventive for Croup.
We want every mother fo know 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 have accompanied the hoarse
ness from the start. After that a pecul
iar rough cough is developed, which is
followed by tho croup. The t?me to act
is when the child first becomes hoarse;
a -few doses of Chamberlain's Couch
Remedy will prevent the attack. Even
alter a rougn cougn oas appeared ine
disease may be prevented by uijing this
remedy as directed. It has never, been
known to fail. 25 cent, 50 cent and $1
