Dr. Siddall will leave for Portland in
the morning to return -on Saturday.
George A. Young, of Bake Oven, came
into town yesterday afternoon and is
. stopping at the Umatilla house.
W. K. Corson, of the firm of Chrisman
& Corson, has returned from the consol
idated city. He says the religious furor
occasioned by the Mills' meetings-, makes
every day appear like Sunday in Port
land. The young people's society of Chris
. tian Endeavor, of the M. E. church of
Belmont, Hood River, gave an enter
tainment at the church last evening,
consisting .of vocal and instrumental
music, declamations, etc., closing with a
bounteous supper at the parsonage.-- It
was their first entertainment and was in
every respect s grand success.
Ed. Calkins, of Hood River, gave The
Chboniclb a pleasant call today. He
reports that while the frost gave the
fruit prospects a close call.. a couple of
: Mights ago.Tnothing, so far as is known,
is injured. iThe. prospects for a-, large
crop of strawberries are especially bright
. and they will come in two weeks earlier
than they did last year. Most of the
strawberry crop is already, contracted
for and at higher figures- than ' those of
any previous year. It is reported that
Mr. Coon has sold his entire output
nine acres, at fourteen cents a box. :.- At
that rate, strawberry culture in Hood
river valley ought to be equal to a gold
wine. -
W. E. Garretson has - just Teceived
from the Roy Watch Case Company one
of the. prettiest-things in the line of
watch charms we have ever seen. It is
an ordinary gold keystone with the
tnoto-miniature of his little boy blasted
on porcelain in the center of the jewel.
.ii8 the first production of the kind ever
accomplished in the United States so
the Roy Watch company- informs Mr.
Garretson. The photograph is as per
. feet as it was when it was on paper and
is so hard that an ordinary file will not
scratch it.. How the picture was ever
blown, on the porcelain at white heat,
a the' company says, without in the
least defacing it, is a. mystery. -:
. Clearly a Dlacrlmlaation.
The Chronicle, is no alarmist. II it
warns the people that their interests are
threatened by- the Union Pacific and
that that corporation will move heaven
and earth to crush . the people's boats
and keep the river closed, it is because
it believes these things to be true, it had
almost said knows them to he true,
While the friends of the Union Pacific
in this city, are assiduously spreading
the lying report that the directors of the
people's boats are negotiating for their
sale to the railroad, that company is try
ing by every means -fair, and foul, to
crush them out of existence. The fol
lowing letter addressed tp a Goldendale
merchant, and a fac simile of one, we
are told, that has been sent to everj
other merchant in that town, has been
handed us for publication. It says as
plainly as words can do it, that if the
Goldendale shippers are not satisfied
with these rates, the Union Pacific will
mate rates to suit them. The rates of
fered are below the railroad rates on the
same class of goods from Portland to The
Dalles, and ten cents a hundred less
than from Portland to Grant, when one
reckons the teaming charge of 35 cents
from 'Grant to Goldendale. Hitherto
the Goldendale merchants have stood
manfully by the Regulator. Their own
interests, as well as the interests of the
county from which they receive their,
support demand that they should not be
allured from this allegiance- The peo
ple's boats forced concessions from the
old monopoly that have put thousands
of dollars in the people's pockets. To
accept this new allurement would be
treason and death.
Form 1519. . -
Union Pacific System, General Freight Dep't.
Portland, March 18, 1892.
Messrs. . , Goldendale, Wash.
Gentlemen We have decided to pub
lish the following rates from Portland
to Goldendale via Grants :
First class, 75 cts. 2d 75 cts. 3d 75 cts.
4th 75 cts.. 5th 75 cts. A 70 cts. salt 60 cts.
per 100 lbs, subject to western classifica
tion. . .. ..." ... . " --.
These figures are based on the teaming
charge of 35 cents per 100 lbs. from
Grants, the railroad company accepting
balance of through rates as their propor
tion up to Grants. ,
The.company not responsible for the
maintenance of a . 35. cent teaming
charge. ".. -
In making these rates we consider
that they are sufficiently low to warrant i
merchants in Goldendale shipping all
their business via Grants, and I trust
that they will see fit to. do so. In case
we have misjudged the situation, and
our rates are still to high to warrant you
in giving us your business, we will be
pleased to hear from you.
Yours Truly,
- ' B. Campbell.

There is an institution in Astoria that
is doing good work among the boys, and
which is not generally known. , Rev,
Dilworth, of the Presbyterian church,
has a class of about fifteen boys, ahom
he is teaching the art of type setting,
type writing, scroll sawing, besides some
of the sciences. They meet there two or
three evening in each week, says the
Herald, and occasionally the good ladies
of the , church serve refreshments and
many enjoyable evenings are spent. It
is far better for the boys and keeps them
off the streets, and Mr. Dilworth is cer
tainly doing a noble and christian work
which will be appreciated." He makes
no "charges for the service and does it
for the benefit of the boys. This is the
kind of missionary work that produces
Kood results and Rev. BQ worth's laud
able efforts are deserving of success.-
An Oversight.
Th Dalle s,T)r.) March 31, 1892. .
Editor Chronicle : 4
If my memory serves me right, there
was a ' resolution passed at the late
republican county convention pledging
the legislative nominees to the construc
tion of the "dalles portage," .but have
looked -in vain. to,. see it appear in the
papers : Even the Sun which is harping
on a railroad song, . passed it over in
silence. Has some enterprising, brother
suppressed it? - ' Alpha
The omission of the resolution, so far
as The Chronicle is concerned, was
simply an oversight on the part of the
reporter, who remembers that it was
offered by C. L. Phillips, and unani
mously adopted.' . . Edito Chjeokicle,

Thanksgiving JOay in New York City.
It used to be that Thanksgiving day in
New York was, like the duy all over the
eastern part of the country, a day which
centered around a dinner. This dinner
was inevitablewivnd the families saw each
other then that never saw each other in a
group at any other time. The prodigal
returned for it; the poor relation looked
forward to it and praised it as it pro
gressed neaviiy turough its different
courses; and the several members of the
family tried to be mure polite and genial
and loving toward one another at that
meal than at any other of the three times
865 other meals of the year; There are
some who Like family dinners, and there
are other wicked ones who sympathize
with, the young woman who assented to
having a family dinner by saying, "Yes,
and let us have any family but our own!"
- It is aa awful and solemn ceremony in
many homes, and it is made more so, as
a rule, by someone of the elder of the
poor relations, who endeavors to enliven
the general gloom by trying to be "the
life of the dinner."- He does this by
growing reminiscent over the younger
members, and telling how pretty they
were as; children, and how they used to
make him tell and retell the old story of
the roast pig he stole the night before
Gettysburg, with which introduction he
promptly tells the old story again. .
It may . not be so everywhere, bnt
around Kew York city . this has all
changed.-: It is not' that -the families
around the great metropolis love- each
other less, or that they have less cause or
less desire to be thankful, bnt a great and
powerful and fascinating rival has Come
te. take the place of the Thanksgiving
day dinner, and it is known not only in
New York, but from Texas, or wherever
else a Yale man is carrying a transit, to
Canada, or wherever else the Princeton
man is building a bridge, as the Thanks
giving day game.
U And now everybody goes out to see
Princeton, and Yale decide the football
championship, and instead of boring each
other around a dinner table, grow hoarse
and exhausted in shouting for their fa
vorite son or the college of their son.
