It is said that Wasson, the Polk county
farmer, who lost his orchard by an ap
plication of kerosene is alone to blame
for it,. He took the recipe literally, like
the fellow who swallowed the leach.. He
was told to apply it. He simply swal
lowed it. Was so n read the recommen
dation to use kerosene to destroy borers,
and accordingly procured a small syringe
and loaded it up with . the inflamable
fluid, injecting a small quantity into the
opening made by borers in the roots;
having first dug away the earth to ex
pose the roots. He has abundant proofs
that the borers are dead in 522 peach
and prune trees, chiefly prunes, but un
fortunately the 522 trees are all dead,
dried and shriveled up.

THE IMtlCE OF WHEAT.
The Necessity of the Times Demand That
I'rompt Measures be Taken.
The last j-ears crop of wheat in the
Inland Empire has been nearly all" dis
posed of. But few lots are now held for
sale. The .last lot purchased changed
hands at 64 cents, which is equivalent
to 77 cents in Portland. In the Willam
ette valley, between Portland and Har
rishurg, there is still held probably 250,
000 bushels. Of this, 175,000 bushels in
the hands of half a dozen persons. . The
lot could be bought up for 84 cents per
bushel, but dealers are offeriug only 78
cents'. Some desire is expressed to get
the grain moved, to make room for the
new crop, but millers have a large stock
on hand, and are not anxious to invest.
As showing how the farmers in the In
land Empire are handicapped, for want
of an open river, we have been at con
siderable trouble to ascertain the differ
ence against them in the matter of trans
portation. Dnluth is 1519 miles from
New York 'city by way of the lakes and
the Erie canal . The Dalles has a straight
river stretch, with the cascade locks and
canal open, of but 188 miles to . the sea
port of Oregon Astoria. But onr grain
is carried to Portland, 88 miles by rail,
at a cost of 12J cents per bushel. There
it is stored until convenient to ship it,
or lighter :to Astoria for shipment ; when
another tariff is taxed Upon it. With
the river open at the cascades, many
vessels would come to The Dalles and
load here direct for Liverpool. It is a
fact that wheat is carried from Dulnth
to Liverpool by water, at 2 cents less
per bushel, than The Dalles shipper
pays by railroad to Portland. Here
are the actual and indisputable facts.
Preserve them for future reference.

Excess against the Wasco farmer. 2c
A gentlemen who has carefully in
quired into this subject, taking one year
with another, estimates that since the
farming interest of the Inland Empire
has taken precedence farmers have been
needlessly taxed an amount on wheat
alone fully equal -to the total cost of
making the Columbia river open and
free to craft of every class, to compete
for the carrying trade of the country.
How much longer ' -' ' ' '
.Must the .people submit
To this system of extortion? '
Capt. J. W. Lewis shows that in Was
co, Sherman Gilliam, Morrow, Grant
and Cook counties there are 4,327,370
acres surveyed, and 371,800 acres un
surveyed lands. ' A total of 5,669,179,
acres, available to settlement. Last
year the Inland Empire shipped 25,000,
000 bushels of wheat alone, in addition
to Other cereals. There were also ex
ported from the river in the vicinity of
this improvement ; over 16,000,000 lbs.
of wool, together with ,a" great, many
other productions in proportion. To em
phasize this matter, let it be understood
that there is not a bushel of grain ; nor
a pound of wool ; nor any other pro
duction "for"' shipment ' from the
Inland Empire; which, does not
have to pay its proportionate in
crease to the above figures as the
distance increases beyond The Dalles.
It is therefore plain to be seen that it fs
high time the people were awakened to
a senseoi tDe necessity of timely action,
that this improvement may; not ,be de
layed one hour by the influence of any
one man or combination of men. It is
of much greater importance to the
people ot .bastern Oregon and W ashing
; ton than the election of a president.

A man who gave , the name of Elza

brought from Linn county yesterday by
Deputy Sheriff J. H. Phirman, charged
with passing a bogus 20 on" Mr. Mosier
last fall. He two and companions had
stopped at Mosier's over night, and after
breakfast ' the next day tendered the
counterfeit coin and received change in
exchange for it to the amount of abowt
$18. Mr. Mosier has kept his eyes and
ears open, to detect the fellow ever since.
Last week he heard of him at a point

The Chbo.nici. suggests the above
name for the new seedling gooseberries
on exhibition at the N. P. R. ticket office,
in Portland. It is said they are of such
magnificent proportion as to make even
a web-foot inquire what they are. The
berries are as large as plums and of ex
cellent flavor. They were grown on the
trial grounds of F. L. Posson & Son, on
east side. This firm has adopted a novel
way to name and advertise this berry.
They promise to give $50 to the person
who shall suggest the best name for it,
award to be made bv a committee of
three prominent citizens. Samples of
the berries may be had at Possou's seed
store; also blanks to fill out with name,
etc. Just fill out a blank for The Chron
icle. Messrs. Posson,-and send up a
check for the name.
Knlogy on Archbishop lritland.
New York, July 20. The pope, re
ceiving the pupils of the 1 propaganda,
delivered an animated eulogy on Arch
bishop Ireland yesterday, praising his
many virtues, his vigor as a thinker and
energy in action. The archbishop he
said, was a true republican and a genu
ine democrat, and since "leaving Rome
had done good work for the church in
Paris. His remarks were received with
enthusiasm-by the pupils. They have
made a profound impression as showing
the archbishop has the confidence of the
holy father.

There ia certainly no baking powder

Queer world! Queer people! Here
are men and women by thousands suf
fering from all sorts of diseases, bearing
all manners of pain, spending their all
on physicians and "getting no better,
but rather worse," when right at hand
here's a remedy which says it can help
them because it's helped thousands like
them. "Another patent-medicine ad
vertisement," you say. Yee--but; not of
the ordinary sort. The medicine is Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and
it's different from the ordinary-nostrums
in this: . It.dpes what it claims to 'do,
or if cof you nothing! The way is this:
Yon pay your druggist $1.00 for a. bottle.
You read the directions, and yon follow
them. "You get better, or you don't.
If you do, you buy another bottle, and
perhaps another. If you don't get bet-
ter, you gel your molley back. And the
j queer thing is that so many people are
willing to-be sick when the remedy s so
near at hand.
