The republican convention of Wasco
county has met and done its work and
adjourned and the result, so far as the
state delegation is concerned, comes too
dangerouely near being a menance to
the best interests of Wasco county and
of the Inland Empire to be a matter
for congratulation. The ChkoxiclS had
hoped that the republican vo'ers of this
county were possessed of sufficient inde
pendence to rebuke the men who have
betrayed their interests in the past, by
leaving them at homo. The majority of
the country delegates fought nobly and
-to them we owe;the fact that a solid
railroad delegation will not go to the
state convention to nominate the state
ticket. As it is the choice of M. A.
Moody and G. W. Johnston for state
delegates is nothing less than an insult
to thip county. Moody is an open
enemy of the people, an open enemy of
an open river and an open and avowed
friend of the railroad. Johnston sup
ported by his vote, as the records of the
last legislature show, the infamous act
by which Benedict Arnold McCoy of
Sherman county, defeated the appropri
ation for a portage railroad at the Dalles.
These are two of the men the conven
tion has chosen to nominate candidates
for the Oregon legislature at a time
when the whole Inland Empire is de
manding an open river. How they got
their nomination is no secret. - At the
city primaries a large number of per
sons were influenced to vote the anti
Farley ticket through promises of sup
port, for themselves or friends, for nom
ination to county offices. Some of them
have got their reward and the rest got
left, beautifully and delightfully left, as
is generally the case when one promises
to support two or three persons for the
same office. And yet, notwithstanding
the number of strikers that gathered
like carrion crows in support of Moody
his nomination to the state convention
was only accomplished by his refusal to
allow the city to be districted in a per
terctly fair and honorable way, the same
as the country had been. Johnston
goes to the state convention by the
treachery of J. E. McCormick, an alli
ance man from Eight-Mile precinct, who
voted for Johnston against the wishes of
his fellow-precinct man, W. E. Camp
bell. The country expected better than
this from McCormick and will hold h'.m
"responsible for his treachery.
"When the binding twine used in this
'"country was manufactured abroad it
cost our . farmers seventeen cents a
pound. Now that it is made at home,
under the protection afforded by the
McKinley law, the price has been re
duced to seven and a half cents and
thousands of American artisans are
given employment in its manufacture.
''The present duty is seven-tenths of a
-'Cent a pound, which, even if the farmer
ihad to pay it, would amount to less than
a cent on every acre of wheat where
twine is used. This petty tax has been
' attacked by the tariff reformers now in
control of the house, when they well
know, or ought to know, that if the
home manufacture of this article were
destroyed by free trade the price would
soon be doubled to the -American
. consumer.
Goldendale has a ghost that periodi
cally visits the pale glimpses of the
moon and horribly shakes the disposi-
' tion of the citizens with thoughts be
yond the reaches of their soles. It is
. not the regular conventional ghost for it
dresses in black and groans as if in pain,
but it has the faculty of nimbly making
itself scarce .when danger approaches,

A smoker in the harbor of Barcelona
threw a match down, after lighting his
pipe, and it set fire to a petroleum cargo
on a barge, which blazed furiously and
drifting in the harbor played sad havoc.
A warship, four steamers, a corvette,
and a launch were burned to the waters
edge. The wildest ' panic prevailed
among the ships in the harbor during
the fire, and many who "were at a dis
tance from the lighter when it took fire
saved themselves only by starting sea
ward immediately. The spectacle of the
six burning ships was a ' scene of awful
grandeur, and was viewed by thousands
on the wharves.
