Often attended with difficulties, and per

, Hon. K. C. Reed, state fish commis
sioner for Oregon, while up to. Canyon,

an official of the general government.
The News says Mr. Reed "should have
gone over to Silvies and Harney valleys
and torn'Out the dams" along "the' river,
so that fish could ascend the stream
from the lakes.". The office is now no
sinecure position and to impose such
tasks might possibly so overburden the
commissioner as to break his back.
This is the sort of encouragement the
girls oMUickitat received from the local
papers,, while their beaux are off doing
military duty:' "Won't a lot of the
young ladies feel lonesome while the
boys are away at camp. They may come
across some nice looking girls on the
sound." Lots of interest was taken in
the company previous to their depart
ure for camp,' but several of the bovs
bad no military clothes so could not ac
company the others, to the encampment.
Lieut. Hodson gave the company some
good drills, -which the boys greatly ap-.
predated, and if the same interest ia
maintained on their return. Capt;, Bil

draws near when they are to leave us for

cultivated and wild flowers, the snpecior
quality of our fruif, and above all our in
comparably genial climate, our . delight
ful drives, and bur hospitable, intelligent
and companionable people.' Yes, said he,
"I know I shall often find my memory
glancing back upon pleasant recollec
tions of this visit to The Dalles.' . , The

Carrie Burnham, in a note to the Re
cord, ' says the Rxlston ; brothers of
Montana, wbo bought 350 or 400 head of
stock from Blurock & Peters, crossed
their stock" on the Arlington ferry and
drove them to Wailula Junction to ship
over the N. P., as they said the price for
shipping . from ' Arlington to Wailula
Junction would be nearly one-third as
much i as from Wailula to" Helena, Mon
tana, onthe 2s. P. ; and this is the reason
why people take stock to different points
and other roads for shipment. . About
stock from the Washington side of the
Columbia, h ..Mrs. ' Burnham sixe :
"Robt.;Grabam of Bickleton was at the
ferry one day laet. week, and we gave
him rates, as be intended to ship 'three
or four carloads' of horses ; but after
consulting the V. P., agent at this place;
he said he could do better on the N; P.
railroad, and took the horses to Prosser
for shipment." . So it would seem, from
this, that even a ferry boat isn't in it,
alongside the "system."

The Klickitat Leader o the 2od intro
duces a letter on the subject of the re
ported withdrawal of The Dalle9, Port,
land and Astoria Navigation Company ,
as follows : "It is with.extreme pleasure
that we can announce the fact that the
peoples' company is still bnjthe war path.
The rumor that found so much credence
along the river that the company had
sold out to the Union Pacific is most em
phatically denied by the 'company, and
in answer, to a letter sent from this office,
the following communication : will be
read with vast interest : . - ' . -. ,
Dear Sib. Your favor irt the 10th re
ceived, and in reply would say that there
is ho truth whatever in the report that I
this company has sold out' to the Union
Pacific railway, neither have they made
any kind of compromise with them. - Our
tie up is solely -on -account-.-of- circum
stances which could not have been avoid
ed by the company this season, as onljrj
actum experience coma aemonstratc the
present condition . of affairs... We., fullv
trust to resume operation's -by the loth.'
proximo and that we will be fully -prepared
in tbe- future to have -our lower
boat in such shape tbat with better land
ing facilities at the cascades a tie up in
any atage of water will be. unnecessary.'
We have kept our boat running sem'i
weekjy between The Dalles -and Cascade
locks to accomodate the people on the
Washington side of the river, and al
though Regretting that we could not give
a daily service w e trust this has been
appreciated, as it is the best we could
do. - -We would thank you to express our.
thanks to the people afontr the river1-. for
their generous patronage, and --assure
them that the Regulator company have
by no means given up the tight, v - i
The.:. Lewder adds;. "We hope this
will Satisfy our correspondent, as well as
other people, who were afraid they were
going to be subject to the exorbitant and.
exacting freight rates of tbe Union Pa
cific railroad- - Remember that the peo
ple's boat is on the river to stay. When
the Regulator was tied up something
like 1,000 tons of freight "was in sight,
and the indications pointed to more bus
iness than possibly could be managed.
The captain of the Dalles City was satis
fied, that the boat could not safely make
the landing at , the cascades,, and re-,
ported accordingly, so "the rqompaBy
rather than take the', risk of losing the
boat, tied her up. - As soon as it is prac-i
ticable the boats will be running again,
and let the farmers of Klickitat this fall
see that their wheat is shipped by the
peoples' boat, thus giving their support
to a company which manfully started to
oppose a'grinding monopoly," ' ' .

now afforded by Mrs. Philips, who is of

HOW ONE "otLb .maVuves ''.
Economlcsl Koard and Boom Kaeping of
' a Sesldent or Washington.
It. zb wonderful how the theories of
our past lives comes back to us now as
the . realities of the present. Daniel
Webster constantly made notes of cur
rent ideas, and when asked how long it
was before he used them, replied some
times twenty years, sometimes longer.
When I was a boy, in Shelby county, 1
went one' day to Mr, John Cooper's shoe
maker's shop to be measured for a pair
of shoes, ae the custom of the eonntry
then was. He and his little son Robert
lived alone in th. woods in a house of
one room, which was dwelling and
shoe shop. , Soon Bob's uncle, Gideon
Kaylor, about his age, came in, and Bob
joyfully exclaimed, "Come, Uncle Gid,
we've got some potatoes, and there is
plenty of salt."
It seemed strange . to me. to see how
eagerly they roasted and ate the'potatoes
and how happy they were. Theylived
happily, and yet this was all their liv-'.
ing. - I have repeated this . story fre
quently daring my prosperous days as a
great wonder... uever dreaming ; that it
would become my own reality, as it now
is, and J am happy too. -
A German woman who could not
speak a-'word of English came into my.
office one day with one of my German
circulars in her- hand, which : Mr. Coop
had given her" in' Saxony. I sent her out
into the country with a German mer
chant to look at lands, and that day she
bought a farm. The next day I made:
the deeds, and she became the owner,
and moved in. A neighbor soon after
ward told me that it cost that lady
nothing to live. He says she puts a tin.
cup Of .coffee on the stove . and a tin cup
of corxuneal mush, and that i all her liv
ing, but she is getting rich. I thought that
very strange, too, -never thinking that I
should live so but X do- just that thing
now, having: remembered hearing how
she lived. ' - . . . ". . '.. .. '
When 1 1 lest all my money and yet
must live, I rented a room 14 by IS feet,
with heat,-for $5 per month not a very
good room and not very, well furnished,'
but comfortable and respectable, and
there are plenty of them. at that price.
I bought an outfit as follows: An iron
handy lamp, 75 cents; three seamless
pint tin cups, 15 cents; one do', quart,
IS . cents; one half gallon tin cup, with,
cover, 10 cents; three " bowls. 15
cents; cup and saucer,-10 cents; gallon
glass oil can, 35 cents; oil, 15 cents;
spoon, 10 cents; total outfit, $&. Then I
bought one month's provisions as fol
lows: Half . bushel potatoes, 85 cents;
ten poands,cornmeal,: . 20 cents; three
pounds Graham flour, 15 cents: one
pound ground coffee, 25 cents; eight
pounds granulated sugar, 38 cents; one
pound lard, 10 cents: coarse salt. 5 cents:
total for the month, $1.46. . , ';
I am v good, hearty eater, and am full
fed and live well, and am thankful for
it, but i cannot eat all ' of my month's
provision. There is always a considera
ble amount over every month, and I live
well too. In theinbrning 1 light my
handy lamp, fill my -seamless pint , tin
cup with water, put a teaspoonful of
ground coffee into it, put it over the
lamp; and turn -another tin cup. bottom
upward, over it for a coyer.' In ten
minutes there is a pint cup of good, hot
coffee. While the coffee is boiling I put
little water "into the half gallon cup,
not more than one-eighth full, and then
fill, the quart - tin cup about one-fourth
full of .cornxneal, add, a little salt, then
set tins cup into the half gallon enp, and
fill up tho quart cup' full of "Water and
stir Tip the meal well. Jam in the han
dle of the quart cup so that it will go
into the larger cup. .As soon as the cof
fee comes off set the mush, on the-lamp.
Stir it occasionally, and when it thickens
and fills up the cup take it off.
I buy a loaf of bread for four "cents
for S.onday, and melt a little lard and
salt for gravy, and I live well and have
plenty to eat. Many others in this city,
gaunt and half starved, can live well- in
this way. John Howard in Washington
