The Chronicle is the Only Paper in The Dalles that Receives the Associated Press Dispatches. LOCAL BRKTITIKS. Joe Trippier, a prominent stockman from Wapinitia. is in the city. ; The rain fall up till the present time, reckoning from the first of July, ex ceeds the average for many years. The best of it is, it is all going into the ground. - "' '' - A meeting of teachers of the common, schools of this county will be held to morrow in the office of the superinten dent to discuss the question of grading the schools of the county. Five copies of the new school laws of 1891 are due each ' school district in the county. The school superintendent would like those who have not received them to come and get them.

We expect to hear that numerous fences have been laid low. .. The . front wall of the brick building' owned and occupied .'by E. P. Fitzgerald before the fire, was blown in and leveled with the ground. The ve locity .of the wind was 45 miles an hour. A meeting of delegates from various farmers' alliances in Eastern Oregon will be held in Pendleton on the 6th of January for the purpose of discussing' ' the advisability of purchasing the right to produce rain in five counties in East ern Oregon, by the Melburne process One delegate will go from this neighbor hood. . "'')'". . . Some human hog broke into Hans Hansen's cellar last Saturday night and succeeded in turning everything in it upside down, without apparently getting what he wanted. If he was after-liquor he searched in the wrong place. Hans never keeps his liquor in the cellar. The pork barrel too was empty as the nice fat hog (hat Hans bought Saturday morning lay uncut on the kitchen table. Hans says' he has. always a square meal for any decent hungry, man but he has nothing but buckshot for such as visited him Saturday night. " The Oregon Alpine clnb is practically dead. It was organized in 1S87 and at one time had a membership of 375 per sons. : The object of the club, as stated in the amended constitution," was the foundation and niaintainance of a public museum and advancement and encour agement of amateur photography, alpine and aquatic exploration and the protec tion of our game, fish, birds and animals. Through its efforts a law was passed prohibiting the ruthless destruction of deer. Through the efforts of the club a government expedition - was sent to explore the Olympic mountains in the summer of 1SH0. The club had acquired a valuable collection of curios, besides birds, an 'mala and mineral specimens, . which it it proposed to turn over to any society, which will agree to carry .on the work' within the "state and assume a small indebtedness of $800. The board of trade of this city is about to issue a circular letter, copies of which will be sent to prominent persons in the states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho, with the request that .they pro cure a liberal number of signatures to them and have them forwarded to their respective representatives in Washing ton. The letters will urge upon the del egation from the three states that they do everything in their power to procure an appropriation for the construction of a portage railway between The Dalles and Celilo. The letter sets forth that the portage road at the Cascades, which has been built by the state at a cost of $60,000 and which was not in operation till about the 10th of September last has, since that time," saved in freight charges to the people tributery to that portion of the river,, lying between The Dalles and the Cascades, nearly, if not quite the entire cost of construction. .' .

The Whine of a Plug Bat Answered. .Thjc Dalles, Dec. 29, 1891. Editor Cyronicle: -1 ;: " I see that the four-bit, plug hat editor L thinks he is badly used because he dpes not get the printing of The Dalles, Port lanp & Astoria Navigation Co. Does he want the earth? Or, rather, as he has the railroad does ..he want : the river thrown in. Even if he did own $200 in the new boats, pray how much, do the owners of the Chbokiclb have in them? Take out what the owners of the Chron icle have in the enterprise and. how much would there be left TNot enough to build a wharf .

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 nave accompanied the noarse ness from the start. After that a pecul iar rough cough is developed, which is followed by tho croup. The time to act is wnen tne cmld nrst becomes noarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's Couch 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. 25 cent, 50 cent and $1 bottles for sale by Snipes & Kinersly, druggists.. . w Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria.
