xoings oegin to look a little more
promising. When Prof. Vandenberg
came to The Dalles a short time ago, and
opened his laboratory In French's block,
it was with the view of finding out what
particular constituents of material ex
isted here to encourage the hope of pos
sible success following the investmeut
of capital in certain manufacturing in
dustries which it was supposed by some
might be established. Oregon is too
poor to sustain one of the most needed
officials of the state, a geologist;
so Prof. Vandenberg came out
here from Buffalo. N. Y.. at tha
request of a few people ' who are iden
tified with this region, and the result of
his tests is that the Columbia River
Glass Works .was incorporated today
with a capital of $250,000, for the pur
pose of manufacturing and selling glass
ware of. every kind, plain and orna
mental tiling, crockery ware, porcelain,
pottery, cleansing and polishinc ma

made by Prof. Vandenberg tell us these
things, and more, exist here now. Be
sides the carrying on of operations as
above outlined, this incorporated com
pany is to buy and sell Bach commodi
ties, landB, and products, as may be
necessary and convenient to the pur
poses, and their incorporation permits
them to construct wagon roads, railroads

The' following item may be a pointer
for Dalles X31ty property holders-. It
shows the" kind of faith that moves
mountains, when they are found to- be
in the way, and builds great cities.
"The city of Manchester, Eng., sets a
good example to American cities more
boastful of their enterprises. In 1886
she began the construction of much
needed canal, which 'was expected to
cost $50,000,000, and every citizen took
stock patriotically., according to bia
means. "When the money Vas all gone
the canal lacked a cood deal of coin nip-
w - ir.
tion, and the city at once invested $15,
OOO.OOOadditional." A Meeting of Pioneera.-
Yesterday an old gentleman called at
The Dalles postoffice and inquired for a
letter for Pickett. Mr. Chittenden ran
over the Ps and found one addressed to
David Pickett. Before handing it out
he inquired of Mr. Pickett if he had
forgotten him. Mr. Tickett looked at
him a moment, -then said: "If my
memory serves me. your name is Lvman
Chittenden." "That's rirfit snirl Mr.
Chittenden, then the two indulged in a
Tew minutes talk over old times. . They

A Royal Chlauok Pewit.
In a private letter to Mr. S.J. Brooks,
acknowledging the reeeipt of samples of
The Dalles' royal lishMr. S. S. JSichol
son, of the Beards town, (111.) Illinoian,
says : "The salmon came to hand in good
shape, whoppers ; a cariosity to all who
saw them and a . treat to all your old
friends I could think of, within reach, to
the number of eleven.. Some persons
seem to have an idea that the salmon
in the Columbia river is in keeping with
cat-fish in the Illinois ricerv as to size
and quality, hence it becomes quite in
teresting to them to see native of those
waters. Some intelligent persons think
they "school" into the .Columbia from
the Pacific ocean, hence are a salt
water fish . These ideas eome from not
having seen them otherwise - than jam
med into a tin can, so that the real flesh,
in the- body, is quite a curiosity here.
Oregon seems very much: nearer to us
than it used to be. I was talking to Dr.
Littlefield, of Porthmd,. on Saturday.
He was born; and grew up here, but he
thinks there is no place like Oregon.
Thus are the remote parts of the earth
wonderfully brought together." ,'
The salmon is a fresh water fish. It
is hatched in the Columbia,. then leaves
for the Pacific ocean, but returns to the
Columbia during spawning season, from
early spring to late fall. It, is often
found in the Columbia and its tribu
taries hundreds of miles from the ocean.

Benefit of a Feeder.
Capt. I wis, of the United States land
office, had a very pleasant ' trip to Can
yea City via. Baker - Cltyr Out of the
latter place the route is covered for
twenty-two miles by a very nice little
narrow gauge railway which is quite a
feeder for the U. P. K., and in many
more ways than one contributes to the
upbuilding of Baker City. It seems to
the writer that The Dalles should have
just such improvement as that. . In the
early sixties The ' Dalles enjoyed a very
lucrative trade wjtb the Canyon City
regions. . Then it was gold the ground
produced. But even in gold the ground
is far from being worked out. If it
were, there are features of the soil today
more attractive than gold fields ; in the
acres of fertile land adapted to wheat
cultivation, which-" is now prohibited,
because of the long, tedious and ex
pensive haul by wagons. , : After leaving
the railway Capt.. Lewis .took the stage,
and the distance intervening was . cov
ered by an average traveling of five
miles j5er hour,, which he considers good,
when the mountainous condition of the
country is taken into the account. The
old route from The Dalles is equally as
good, all the-way;- aa the best by the
new route, but Baker City has got the
start of us, by her little railroad, which
is b,y no means as. insignificant as it
seems. . .
