Washington, D. C, Jan. 22, 1892.
Editor. Chronicle:
It is after eleven and' Fitch and I have
jast returned from the Grand Opera
houee where we went to see the opera
"Robin Hood" and it's way ahead of
anything I have ever seen-in that line.
The music and acting were both very
good. We have put in a very busy day
and this morning I had the honor to oc
copy Senator Mitchell's seat in the sen
ate chamber of the United States. We
had ' a good ". guide . and every
point of interest was shown to us. We
went in every room In the 'capitol, after
that we went to the Washington monu
ment which is 553 feet high and made of
white marble, as are all of the govern
ment buildings with the exception of the
war, navy and state building which is
of brown' stone, then we went to the
treasury building and - there I saw 'one
vault 89 feet long, 51 feet wide and 12
feet high.'which contains 93 millions of
silver dollars. This is put up in sacks,
each one containing one thousand dol
lars, next to this is another vault 40 feet
long, 30 feet wide and 12 feet high. ThiB
holds at this time in silveY and gold 83
millions. It is, however, "well guarded
and I could not get hold of it, and there
fore you can rest easily to night as the
money and country are safe.
In the eame. building is a Mammoth
masticator which chews up daily from
three to five hnndred thousand dollais
in old and mutilated currency. We also
saw new money being made, printed and
cut in bundles of 40 thousand each, and
there was more than could be put into
the whole building occupied by the
Haight resturant in The Dalles. " We
also saw the battle of "Bull Ran" in the
Cyclorama building which was fine.
This evening after dinner we went to the
Corcoran art gallery which is said to be
the finest collection of paintings and
sculpture in the word. This was pre
sented to the government by John W.
Corcoran, ex-United States senator.
Tomorrow we will attend the president's
reception and go through the White
House, war, navy .and state buildings.
Washington is the greatest place I
have ever seen, the streets are about 200
feet wide exclusive of the sidewalks
which are 60 feet wide each, and every
street is so laid out that all avenues
lead to the capitol.
Jan. 23. Well I am tired. Have juBt
come back from the reception at the White
House and had the pleasure of shaking
hands with the president, and as - Fitch
says, he was in quite a nice home and in
pretty good shape, and seems verv well
suited with his "Yob."
We are haying elegant weather for our
rff. and have enjoyed it very much
Today we have been through the army,
navy and state also the patent office and
the W hile House, and guess that is
enough for one day.
We leave tor home this afternoon as
Fitch must be home in the morning, but
lam coming home this way and will
then stop as long as I want to. I rather
dislike leaving this hotel as I think it is
the best one all around that I ever have
stopped in and the dining room is a pal
ace. The band plays daring dinner and
I do not know as I will be able to -eat
The discovery
excites considerable interest. - .'- '
The Salem Journal says its arguments
for a special session as the only way to

1892 have not been answered, and are
endorsed. even by democratic papers.
A human brute named Henry Hanes,
aged 43 years, has been arrested and
jailed at Walla Walla, for fiendish out
rage committed upon the person of Sarah
Ott, a ten-year-old German girl. Hanes
was forced to admit his crime at his trial
in the justice court, and will undoubtedly
be given the punishment that his offense
deserves. ...... .
The British ship Port Adelaide is dis
charging 12,000 boxes of tin plate at As
toria. - The British ship Lawton is on
the way there with 11,850. boxes, and
will be followed by the City of Madras
with 5,000 boxes. This gives a total of
about 29,000 boxes. It is expected that
it will require 40,000 boxes of tin for the
salmon season ot calculating vi
boxes to each 1,000 .cases of canned sal

H. McArthur returned from a trip to

The work of prospecting for oil in Nook
sack valley, - Whatcom, is proggressmg
steadily. The drill is .now down oyer
200 feet and the owner, D. J. Wynkoop,
declares.hiinself greatly pleased with the
outlook. He has been in the oil boring
business since he was 21 years of age,
and has never seen more promising in
dications of the existence of oi1 in any
locality. He reports that he was favor
ably impressed with the country as an
oil producer when he first arrived, and
has never yet seen any cause to change
his opinion.. . -
Hon. J. B. Huntington, register of the
Burne8 land office', has the wellfare of
Eastern Oregon at heart, and is using
every effort in his power to further the
project of irrigation of the arid lands of
this section. Mr. Huntington recently
laid the matter before Senator Dolph,
the letter afterwards being bubiished in
the Harney Item. This letter will also
have considerable weight in congress, as
it presents the arid land question in its
true light. He also .says: "The arid
lands reclaimed in Eastern Oregon can
not be missed from the hundreds of
thousands of acres which still lie . open
awaiting some process of redemption,
whichrwill surely come to tnem sooner
or later through the inevitable results of
human energy. "-Join Liay benttnei.

such was the case in . the late Chillian

ment many plans for the '.conquering of
the doughty little Republic, but at last
decided upon this one; viz ; They con
tracted with John Booth, the grocer, for
one thoundand tons of compressed yeast,
which according to contract was to be
thrown into the harbor at Valpariso, and
it was specially, agreed that no Quaker
Oats whatever were to be sold to the
Chillians. The fearful consequences can
only be imagined had the apology not
have . been forth-coming, the harbor
would have risen to an enormous height
and had- any Chillians escaped they
would have died of disappointment when
they found their supply of Quaker Oats
had tjeen shut off. "They're good, try
