Special to Tub Chronicle.
' Cascade Locks," Aug? 29. Daring the
past week forest fites have been raging
east and west of this place, and have de-
stoyed a vast amount of- valuable tim
ber, and the worst feature is, that reck
less scamps : keep up firing the moun
tains in ail directions. Yesterday, eith
er through, carelessness or wanton dev
il try? some one let. fire" get into a wood
yard, which is about two miles east, and
on the 'other side 'of tln river, and before
it was arrested somethirty- cords of
wood were puried. ToJayt" fires have
been.set out about two miles southeast
of this city in.jhe finest body- of timber

tains: Unless '. rain.: jcomes euon, "thou
sands of acres will-be. burned --over, kill
ing' and burning up 'million's offset of
the best milling timber in Eastern Ore
gon, and 1 might say , in Oregon and
Washington. Our state and Uncle Sam
ought to use active measures in au ef
fort to stop this recklessness in firing
the mountains, -k--.. .v . - '
As everybody,- arid hia ancles Snd his
cousins and his aunts, are anxious to
know about the cascade locks, and when
and what will be the news of contracts
for completion, as far as asking for bids
with provisos, " etc, are Concerned, I
will say there is but little known, now
that the specifications are being pre
pared. I believe some have been fin
ished and sent to Washington for ap
proval, and just as soon as all have been
received by the "secretary I of ' war,- arid
have passed the scrutiny of bis eagle op
tics, then probably the order will go out
to advertise for bidders on the work of
finishing the great ship canal at the cas
cades, and no sooner. ."Neither - you
nor -anyone ; else need flatter yourself
that because -congress passed an act
authorizing government works to be let
by contract, that the cascade canal will
be completed any sooner than desired
by railroad interests. - You- can bet on
that, and that ia the only game of chance
I know of that will. win oat. As far as
those who are here in charge are con
cerned, they are annoyed beyond meas
ure, I imagine, . at "the accumulated
amount of red tape constantly being un
rolled at headquarters, in Washington.
Cascade Locks, although we complain
of dull times1? owing to there being noth
ing done on the canal, is 'making . soiue
pretensions to growth! Dr. Leavens is
completing a beautiful residence oti a
commanding eminence of ', the - city.
which overlooks the cascade rapids and
the rugged range of mountains north.
Besides . this, ? there'v are several new
houses ;being built,jand several more
have been "completed ' during the sum
mer. "The town of Cascade Locks con
tains about seventy -or eighty families,
and has a school . population of 156.
They have a good school house, fitted
with patent seats and have charts, globe
and last, but not least, a fine organ. In
uie Duuaing a nno Sunday scnool is
also maintained. ' i : .
Fishing for salmon is being carried on
by residents here, who use deep nets
and the book and spear with impunity,
regardless of law or anything else. Gov.
Penhoyer might look this way, iustead
of watching Earl Taft, of Celilo, and be
more successful, probably, in his effort,
"by the eternal." -
Major Handbury left Portland last
eveningj so rumor has it, to meet the
board of western coast engineers, which
assemble in Sari Francisco on the 2d

says : "The major must go." Go where?
How tloes he know? Were a change
made no doubt the same condition of
affairs would continue. ' Would swap

Gun
Eactorx-Wlll be Lbcated Sere.
. The Dalles has a friend at .court,- and
we are advised that ihere- la a very
strong possibility that the "government
gun factory for the Pacific coast may be
located here. The jclimate at The
Dalles is just What is required for work
ing, steel ahd polished goods. Every
point mentioned for. 'the factory -has . the
fatal-objection of a damp climate, and
none that haa beenmentioned which has.
a climate- equal to thisNhave- the facili
ties for transporttioirsueh asThe Dalles
has.'. A . Washington 'dispatch - today
says that before the Oregon senators
leave for tePacific-oaBt they will
probably i nipt that tbre boaVd of officers,
consisting df Ahree army and three navy
officers, be appointed 'to examine and
report npoar a site, for the gun factory
on the Pacific coast. '
: Heretofore it ' has been considered
probable tpat this gun factory would be
located at penicia, but the officers of the
various departments assert that the Col
umbia river and Paget sound are 'mak
ing an effort to' secure the site. These
officers say that a Pacific coast factory is
absolutely necessary, on account of the
number of guns ahd mortars needed . for
coast "defenses, and the inability of
Watervliet to supply them. They esti
mate that the Pacific coast will require
500 guns, and say there' would be great
military advantages ia.. having a gun
factory "on the Pacific-coast .' --
The Oregon senators believe that the
Columbia river will be selected as. the
point for . the' location . of : this factory
when everything is taken into consider
ation, but of course California and Puget
sound will bo, active ; candidates. . Al-
ready these sections have -presented i
claims for the location, 'but it isexpected
that when the board '.is, appointed Ore
gon will not be at all backward in pre
senting the claims of the Columbia. It
is said that eastern Washington ought
really to bo more interested in'thel . Col
umbia Kite than in a site on Puget sound,
just as it is more interested in overcom
ing the obstacles of Columbia river nav
igation than it is in the construction of
a canal at Seattle. '
. . - Destrnetire Fire. -
Sunday night the 21st, about one
o'clock, says the News, the barn on
George Dot! son's ranch, six miles north
west of Prineville, with Its entire con
tents was burned. With the - barn was
destroyed a mowing machine, reaper,
two sets of harnoss, and other tools and
appurtenances, besides a horse and
about twenty tons of hay belonging to
Isaac Lane, who has the ranch rented.
The loss is aboot $1,500, covered by a
$500 policy issued by the State, of Salem.
Mr. Lanes loss is absolute, and embraces
his entire portion of thisyear'shay crop.
Mr. Dod son's hay was stacked, outside
and escaped the fire, although the sparks
from the burning barn fell thickly upon
it. The fire was fir; t seen by Billy Tom-
linson. who was aroused from his slum
ber in a tent at Carmical's camp, about
300 yards from the building: - He noticed
a light flickering at the entrance to the
tent and on going to investigate found
the light to come from the barn. The
inmates of the camp and of the Dodson
house were aroused; but too late. , to w
rest the flanlea; f;The common theory of
the flro Imputes its origin to' incendiar
ism; but Mr. 'Dodson can think of no
one who could desire to work him" so
great an injury. He rather inclines to
the belief.-thatv8omeone entered the
barn on a predatory excursion and set
the fire by accident. . Horsa tracks wero
seen in the vicinity and the hoof beats of
a running animal was the cause of Mr
ToihUson'a awakening. " 'i-' T
