The Huntington, -1'., "Daily Local
News of August 4th, gives the link, in
the journey homeward, from : Portland
to Celilo, of that section in which its
editor, Mr. Hugh Lindsay belonged, on
the return trip of the NationaVEdltorial
Association", f June 1st. Mr. -Lindsay
says : The scenery along tho route be
tween Portland and The Dalles is grand
beyond description. For twelve miles
we course along tho "Willamette river to
its junction with the famous Columbia
river, where a magnificent view can be
had of Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helens, . Mt.
Adams and Mt. Ranicr, a little farther
on is Fort Vancouver, an - army station
beautiful-for - location., Next rises be
fore us the stately palisades of the Co
lnmbiiv, and .following in. guick" succes
sion come bold and impressive rocks,'
charming glens, solemn, crags, and the
enchanting waterfalls; Oneonta, .Bridal
Veil, - and Jilultnouiah. At --the- latter
the train stopped as if to bathe us in the
glory of the scenerv. 'The . beautiful fall
feprifigfrom a height of 826 feet, plung
ing down the mossy mountain sidevarfd
epfeading into-spray andjbain the jifater'
finds its -way into the bosom"tf the
mighty Columbia." ' Keacliihg : lhe-eas
cades, where the vast volume of the
river comes dashing through the solid
mountain walls, the excursionists trans
ferred to take a steamboat , ride farther
up the river to The Dalles. ; There are
many legends told of this romantic sec
tion, once the home of the Chinook.
Twelve miles below The' Dalles is Mem
aloosc island, bleak, bare and ' rugged,
the burial place of , the Indians, and
where Victor. Trevitt, an "eccentric' Or
egon pioneer," was buried at bis oWn re
quest and a white monument has been
erected to mark the apot. ' '
- While surveying The Dalles, we made
the acquaintance of Mc. Emil ' Schann6
a, retired ' welthy:' citizen, who kindly
proffered lo escort H. H.-McQnillan and
wife, of Massachusetteand . self ' and
wife, to the salmon 'fisheries, about two
miles up the Cojumbiai v The invitation
"was accepted, and after ' a drive behind
a beautiful pair pf sorrels through sand
otuiies madeby the-wind driving the
sand, from the banks .of . the. river for -a
great distance inland, we arrived at the
fishery at '6 o'clockin '.the. afternoon,
just" as: the fifty hinamenwre quit
ting work" in "the canning process. ...
' The cannery we. visited was known aa
The Dalles Packing Co.. owned by Ever'
ding Sc Farrel, established in 1887, with
$100,000 capital. The gentlemanly man
ager, J. H. Havely, informed us they
have - fifty-three Chinamen employed
under contract with, a . boss Chinaman,
and the ; workmen ' make from (10 to $30
a month.- The legal season for catching
salmon is from April s 10th to August
10th" - Since April 20th this .cannery
has put up about 400,000 pounds of sal
mon: I Thore are fprty-eight cans . to a
case. " Last year they put up 10,000
cases, but they expect to put up" 35,000
this year. Their capacity is twenty -five
tons per day, but in 1.890, which was an
extraordinary -' year "for salmonT one
wheel caught forty-one tons in one day.
This is not as big astory as the one told
by George Francis Train, who said he
visited the dalles many years ago, and
the run of salmon was so groat in the
Columbia river that he walked across
on the backs of the fish,. We asked the
proprietor of the hotel about this etory,
and ho said that Francis Train did not
walk across the river, but he " did get
half-way over on the , backs 'of the ' sal
mon, and then got frightened and turn
ed back. The redoubtable George Fran
cis Train is still living, however, and he
and the landlord can fight it out. ' :
It is aa actual fact, whetheroar read
ers believe it or notjthat we saw salmon
that weighed sixty pounds eaugh in one
of these wheels.;. We wanted ,to bring
one home to convince any whOTnigb be'
disposed : to "doubt their ' veracity, but
didn't want to brinerudre than we could
carry. If you doubt us take tho first op
portunity and go tq. the Dalles. We had
the pleasure ' of sampling one of the
small fry salmon, which was kindly pre
sented to as, and never c tasted a better
flavored fiab. j; . . V - -t .r-
It is near tho cannery that you see the
gorge from: which; theL: dalles takes its
name. It is two-and ahalf miley long,
but the depth has never been fathomed.
The river above is from 2,0007 to 3,000
feet wideband in flood time is often a
mile 1n-width, but for this (wo and a
half niiles "the -great body of. water is
compressed into a narrow eleft 'about
130 feet -across. The water in" tho Cbl
uinbia comes from the melting snow In
the mountains ; during a June 'rise the
water has risen here sixty arid seventy
fefet.. The river was getting on a high
when we were there, and we thought of
the' denizens of the Juniata valley in the
memorable flood "of Juno 1st, 1839, when
the- river rose-, twenty-five.'" feeti but
sympathy, with the people of Tbo Dalles,
would Vo useless,, as the flood is a ferti
lizer and never does so much harm as it
does' good. - - - .

Astorian.' Every 'cent "that is added
to tho price of wheat here gives an im
pulse to its production. It is cheap
transportation' that has enabled the
Dakota grain grower to raise wheat
profitably hundred of miles west of Du
luth. It is cheap transportation that
permits the Kansas rhcat growers tq
compete successfully in JojQigr? markets
with thoso of Oregon -and Washington.
There was a time when Ibe grain grow
ers of the west .raised small, crops and
received scanty returns therefor. They
now raise iminc'nee.crops' .'and' make' fair
profits'. ; AlPthat is diieTp low .freights.

"jcw Yokk, Aug. 27. Hamburg spec
ials show that the cholera there contin
ues to increase. and grow in virulenoo in
spite of all precautions of the authorities
to stay the spread of the disease. It has
reached London,, by steamer Gemma.
The Gemma was reported to be infected,
but the authorities, after examining the
passengers, allowed1 them to land. A
few. hours afterward two. women, who
arrived on the Gemma, were taken sick. "
They were at once taken to the hospital
at (Gravesend, where the doctors pro
nounced their malady cholera. In, spite
of medical aid, they diod shortly after
being admitted. This caused consider-'
able anxiety,' and a close inspection of
all incoming vessels - has been ordered.
When the steamer ."--Laura,, also from
Haniburgj-arrived at Lynn, witb cholera
suspects on board, the vessel was hnrae-.
diately ordered to, put back to sen.. The
officers and passongers protested against
such summary treatment, butjlie health'
officers were obdurate and refneed to let
a single person land from the steamer. .
Antwerp dispatches notify -the , world
that .the Sheldt. board ; of health has
taken action such aa is likely to cause
little reliance to be placed on bills .of
health issued by it. It has announced"
that -it sees no reason to make any
change in its bills of health on account
of a - Jew suspicious cages of sickness
coming from Harve and Hamburg: : Itr.
will, therefore, continue to delvel, bills
of.health. As it is indisputably proven
that Asiatic cholera is-present in Ant-
werpj the. health ' authorities"6foTher
cities will know the value of clean bills
of health issued by the Sheldt board. -:. .
Quebec js alarmed at the imperfect,
quarantine station on tho St. Lawrence"
now that the cholera has obtained a foot
hold in the Elbe district, in Germany,
and because of the number of German,
vessels coming -annually into Quebec,
and the large trade carried on between
German ports. Now, ..however, . that the
coldest weather is near, both the doctors
and -everyone else -are beginning to
breathe more freely.-- A medical .man .
has expressed the belief that, if the dis- .
ease does not put in an appearance
within , the next fortnight, nil danger
will be then over. '?
- Our own health officers are preparing
to fight off the cholera should it make
its appearance here. Dr. Ed son, the
sanitary superintendent, thinks cholera
will undoubtedly reach this port within
the next week pr ten days, as 50,000 im-'
migrants,-' in round . numbers, .were
brought into the United States from the
ports of Hamburg, 'Bremen, Antwerp
anVl Havre, dnring the months of June'
at.d July last, and the stream has not
diminished thus far during tho month'
of August. It is estimated that between
0,000 and 7,000 are now en route from
cholera-infpcted ports, destined for New
York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Bos- -ton.
The task of inspecting these -unwelcome
arrivals and disinfecting their
baggage will- be no light undertaking.
It is said that from and after this date
the embarkation of immigrants for tho
United States from Germany and Rus
sia will be practically sus pended until
frost comes, bjr mutual understanding;
between the steamship Hoes and . the
treasury officials of the United States.
