Late dispatches set all anxiety at rest concerning the river and harbor bill On its final passage only 65 members of the house had the hardihood to oppose it. It went through easily and went through in the lcst of shape. Blanch ard's amendment which would have left it entirely discretionary with the war department whether the work should be let by contract or not, and is believed to have been inspired, by Major Handbury and Union PaciCc influence, was rejected on reconsideration. The gallant Major ' has always insisted that the work at the locks should be continued . under the direction of the war department. Then with himself at the head of it the work could drag along as long as it was pleas ing to the railroad, or if at any time it became alarmingly near completion, the Major had only to recommend a change of plans and make a new esti mate of the additional cost. Hermann, we are told, whs just as insistent that the work should be finished by contract and the right, for once at least, tri nmphed. But Holuiau, the miserable, hypocritical pseudo-reformer that he is, voted with the tiunority and wanted the contract provision stricken out. The Inland Empire owes a deep debt of gratitude to Mr. Herman tor his gallant, fight to hare the works at the cascades finished by contract and when the enemies of an open river tried to nullify the contract clanee by supporting the Blanchard resolution which would have left the work practically where it is now, in the hands of Major Handbury, Herman gallantly came to the rescue and never let up till the Blanchard amend met. t was rejected. Long life to Binger Herman ! Eastern Oregon only regrets that she cannot 6how her grati tude by helping to elect him to a place he has so long and worthily filled. May the day be long deferred when Oregon shall elect his substitute. The Ciibon ici.e nominates Binger Herman for our next senator. It is time some steps were being taken to prepare for a Fourth of July celebra tion nt The Dalles ; that is, if the citi zens should conclude to hold one. The celebration a year ago was a great suc cess, at least in point of number of per sons who took part in it and we know of no reason why the coming Fourth might not do equally successful. Some of the funds collected for last year's celebra tion were not used and would be availa ble, and besides $40 or so of money there are some 8,000 blank cartridges. worth, it is said, 30 a thousand. If these could be sold, and we suppose they can, we would have a nneleus fund of $280 to start with. The Chbonim.k moves that we have a celebration. Are you ready for the question? " The Washington special correspondent of the Oregonian says : It is a mistake to think that work cannot be carried on, or that, congress would refuse to appro priate after the contracts are authorized and made by the war department. Any contractor can go ahead and complete his work and "obtain judgment against the government for the . balance. The saving to the government on this sys tem, Representative Hermann said, comes from the fact that the contractor can buy all the materials and machinery for completing the projection. . The present river and harbor bill insures the completion of the, Cascade Locks, also t.VlA PAmnlAfiAn of tka nlr n T.A tU of the Columbia. We have received the first number of Justice, a five column . quarto monthly, . bearing the imprint of Grass Valley, ShermancpuntyF.Mv MarfjuhtJ.jBditer, and I. H. Marquis, publisher.

Not a bit of it. It is no more wrong to protect our home products from ruinous competition than it id to take up arms against an invading foe. The principle oi sen protection, trie nrst law of nature, rules in coin cases. The best spring medicine is a .dose or two of St. Patrick's Pills.

Blaize, an extensive real estate dealer ra Des Moines, Iowa, nar rowly escaped one of the severest at tacks of pneumonia while in the north ern part of that state during a recent blizzard, says the Saturday Review. Mr. Blaize had occasion to drive several miles during the storm and was so thor oughly chilled that he was" unable to get warm, and inside of an hour after his return, he was threatened with a severe case of pneumonia or lung fever. Mr. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, of which he had often heard. and took a number of large doses. He says the effect was wonderful and that in a short time he was breathing quite easily. - He kept on taking the medicine and the next day was able to come to Des Moines. Mr. Blaize regards his cure as simply wonderful. 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakeley & Houghton, druggists. ; d&w TO THE TRADE AND CONTRACTORS. I DESIRE IT TO BE UNDERSTOOD that I have appointed Wm. Butler x uo. exclusive agents for the sale of the "Oregon" lime, at The Dalles, and sur rounding country. Other parties have, through surreptitious and unbusinesslike methods, obtained a small quantity of this lime, which may naturally cause the idea that Butler & Co. are not the exclusive agents of these goods. fj&" Such, however, is not the fact, and iurther stock of this article cannot be obtained from others than Wm. Butler & Co. The trade, however,, will not lose sight of the fact that the great strife to obtain the Oregon lime by other dealers . proves conclusively that the "Oregon is the best lime in the market.
