. WASCO COUNTrS FINANCIAL
EXHIBIT.
A statement bt the financial condition
of Wasco county is published in another
place in the issue. It shows the total
indebtedness of the county, on the 31st
da.v of March last, to have been $55,796.
60. - For the -sake of comparison we may
mention that on the 31st of March 1888,
the total indebtedness of the county was
$62,326.32. During Judge Thornbury's
administration, therefore, the indebted
ness of the county has been reduced by
the sum of $6,529.72. In passing judg
ment on this exhibit two things may
well be taken into consideration. The
past three years ha-vo been unusually
hard ones in Wasco county. The crops
in many places fell far short of an aver
age and heavy losses of stock snnervonnd.
Two years ago, it will be remembered,
ine farmers petitioned, the county court
In favor of a small tax levy, and the
court acceded so far as to fix the levy at
20 mills on a 50 cent basis of assessment,
while the state tax itself was ten mills,
leaving only ten mills on this low assess
ment for county purposes. The result
was as expected. The county ran be
hind. Now, however, at nearly the end
of a four year's administration- of the
present county court, in spite of these
drawbacks, and in spite of the .farther
fact that one term of court alone--the
one proceeding the last on account of
its large criminal docket, cost the county
nearly $10,000, the indebtedness of the
county has been reduced by the sum al
ready mentioned. Taking everything
Into consideration, and speaking conser
vatively, the Chronicle thinks the ex
hibit a good one and one highly credita
ble to a county court that has never
been charged by its worst enemies with
-. penurionsness.
The congressional ticket nominated by
the republican state convention yester
day is undoubtedly a strong one. There
is only one opinion here, so far 'as we
bave been able to ascertain, and that is
' that the ticket cannot be beaten. Un
der any circumstances Hermann's elec
tion would be conceeded and the large
republican majority in the second dis
trict coupled with the deserved popnlar-
ity of Mr. Ellis makes his election as
- certain as any contingent event may
well bo.
The Telegram says, ''there is a stand
ring premium" offered to any man "whose
condition, in any way, has been bettered
fcy the McKinley law.'? Hand over the
- premium, Mr. Telegram, to the editor of
this journal. He has saved $5 on his
family sugar since the McKinley law
went into effect. Address the parcel to
"The Editor of the best family paper in
Eastern Oregon," and ship it via the
Dalles, Portland and Astoria 'company's
boats..
The Prineville News says : "We voted
Harrison and McKinley in, and today
wool is twelve and one-half cents per
pound, and sugar - about the same."
Waving the solecism which is involved
: in the idea of the News' man's having
voted for McKinley, the Chronicle, ad
vises that gentleman to buy the sweeten
ing for his toddy, in future, in The
Dalles where he can get nearly twenty
pounds for a dollar, thanks to that same
1 McKinley bill. .
. Men's Clothes.
"Men are becoming .as bad as women
- for the adoption of strange and uncom
fortable fashions in clothing," said a
- Fifth avenue custom tailor, "and they
need dress reform preached to them al
most as much as the feminine sex. Take
' ... the high collars that are in vogue, and
which are worn higher than ever this
falL They almost strangle one and chafe
the skin until it is sore, between the
. heavy, hot beaver- hat and the tight col
lar, baldness is becoming rampant in our
cities. The high, tight collar has as
much to do with causing baldness as any
other one thing. Then the modern style
.of fitting the clothes forces us to make
them tight and snug all around, and this
prevents one from really enjoying yfe.
"Tight patent leather shoes sweat and
pinch the feet until walkinsr is a Tjainfnl
exercise. Every time I see a dude with'
all of the latest style of modern clothes
I pity him, and wonder that he submits'
' to such voluntary torture. I can assure
' yon that if his clothes fit him he is mis
erable.. The old adage that 'if a man's
" clothes don't fit him he is" nncomfort-
. able' has been reversed." New York
Times.
