Jcffers, of Asto ria, passed through yesterday, en route to Goldendale, on a visit to Mrs. J.'s parents. The noon passenger was delayed about one hour today because of the failure to . couple on the locomotive, No. 546, which had been overhauled and was too high for the cars.

It is a great combina tion of style, quality, etc. ' ' . Maier & Benton have everything in the party badge line, from Grandfathers hat to Ben, Cleve, Steye, etc. They keep, a full stock of hard wear, which would be incomplete without these arti cles. - : ' -' - The wheelbarrow brigade from Seat tle, Lou Howard and two men, , who . passed The Dalles, en route to Chicago, last March, 'arrived in", the Garden-City on the 31st "ult. The dispatch says Lou received $5,000 for the trip, but it don't say that anybody saw anybody hand "over the money. " One of the trio drop ped out before reaching' Chicago, and '" the report credits "Mr." and Mr8..H"ow ; ard" withhaying made" the' trip '.'to gether. ' " ": School' Opens next; Monday, and the "boys will' need new 'suits. " We' canfit them -oat complete.

Fish is in the city by the deep sad sea, a guest at The Occident. The Regulator gives a moonlight ex cursion down the river to-morrow night, from 8 :80 to 11 o'clock. Members of the Mandolin Club gave an entertainment at Grand Dalles last night, after a-moonlight ''excursion on the river. Mr. Ainsworth's boat was used for the excursion, and it was hand somely illuminated. The entertain ment was given on the platform above the Regulator landing, and consisted of vocal and ' instrumental mn sic, closing with a dance. . Mr. Andorson of the Chenoweth .fruit farm returned from a business trip to Portland last night. He is in -favor of the Wasco producers combining and handling their own fruit in that market, to realize tho best prices. The sugges tion is worthy of consideration. We are sorry to hear of the loss of the Whaleback steamer Wetmore, near Coos bay, from Tacoma for - San Francisco with coal. She went ashore in the fog. We had a hope of giving this pioneer in the modern line of Marine architecture on the Pacific, a welcome to The Dalles in about two years. Her career has been eventful from the beginning. The boys in the dining room fear that John L. will hereafter have to "sling bash" for a living. The Oregonian sug gests that "he will hereafter look well behind a saloon bar." To this The Dalles Home Protective Mutual Amal gamated Bartenders Association say: "Not much." Alas, the old bruiser has no companionship left to him. Antelope was represented in the city yesterday by A. ' M. Kelsay and two sons, John F. Bensell and Miss Minnie Newton. The latter couple will ' return as Mr. and Mrs. Bensell, having been united in the holy banns by Judge Blakeley, in open court yesterday after noon. They went to Portland this morning by steamer Regulator. After reading an account of the pump snake production on Missouri bottoms, Dakota, where a full grown "pump snake" measures about 16 feet in length and about three inches in diameter Fenn Batty conceived the idea of a cross with the Celilo eel, and as soon as he can secure a patent on the process, and an active partner, he will go into the business here. Fi'ult and Produce. Referring to the demand for fruit in Portland yesterday the Oregonian says : "The local markets were active and prices as a' rule were unchanged. A satisfactory demand was felt both in the merchandise and produce lines. The fruit dealers were handicapped by the scarcity of tho principal varieties, but as the demand was good, the feeling was. a firm one . Prunes, apples, pears and grapes find mhsffavor and sell rapidly. It is not thought that there will be any thing more in melons this year. Heavy receipts and only a fair demand broke up the business from a standpoint of profit, and all dealers have cnt down their orders." The vegetable market is fairly - well supplieil with all seasonable truck .and steady prices are in vogue. The potato crop is till suffering from a lack of rain, and the indications are that prices will be high this season." THE MILITIA BACKIFICB&. New Phase of the Question of Protec tion in Just Manner. At -a meeting of A company, Oregon National Guard last night, one of the serious questions respecting militia duty, freely discussed among the members in an informal way, was the lack ot pro tection extended- to the members in cases where their situations are jeopar dized by answering the call of ; the state to arms in times of emergency. - It is surely a new phase of the strikes ques tion, and a new problem to puzzle over. For instance: Many members of the New York militia are young men hold ing '.salaried " positions in stores and offices. It is now reported that on ac count of their enforced absence upon military duty at - Buffalo some of these young men have been incontinently discharged by their employers. They were patriotic enough to enlist their ser vices on behalf of thecommonwealthand the time came when the commonwealth, acting in self-defense, hud to make use of them". Because it did bo eomo of these young men, who can ill afford to lose their incomes, are thrown out of place. If this is permitted it is evident that the incentive to enter, the militia service" will be minimized. 'To serve one's state is well enough, but if the state cannot at least protect its servitors, young Americans cannot be blamed for avoiding the one-sided partnership. The question is : In future strikes and difficulties demanding the presence of the militia are the members serving to have the assurance that by their patri otism they will not incur the penalty of surrendering their incomes? " Current Topics. Matters about the New York quaran tine are Berious, but there is a prospect for a fair change today. Jho Htonlng ton has been purchased to put the cabin passengers in from the Infected vessels. Not only are there .new cases breaking out every day among the steerage pas sengers of the ill-fated Normania and Rugia, the former of whom are on Hoff man island, but the disease is now set tled well among the crew of the Nor mania who are on board. Robert Holman was made chief of the Portland fire department yesterday, and the man who will hereafter have charge of the electrical department is D. F. Le high. Both are good men. Petition Denied. The majority of the people at Hood River are determined that no license shall be granted for the sale of intoxi cating liquors in that embryo city'.- The county court was again obliged to deny the petition of Jos. T. Delk for a license today, as the remonstrance wsb more numerously signed than the petition. Was he waiting; for It. ' Oregonian. . The president seems to have delayed his letter of acceptance, waiting for the report of Labor Commis sioner Peck of New York. It would "be difficultto convince the- friends of Mr. Cleveland that he did not know it was coming. . - "vi! V- " Good Ont of EtII. ' ': ' ; Seattle Preps-Times. .

Now that The Dalles surplus fruit is to be provided for by the canning process another Season, it may not be inappro priate to mention the fact that there is this year a large surplus of fine tomatoes which is very liable to be greatly in creased next year and thereafter San nnally, which might find a . profitable market abroad if properly put up. Statis tics inform us that the- tomato pack of 1883 was 2,943,579 cases of two: dozen cans each. In 1885 it fell back to 2,363, 760. ' In 1888 it passed the throe million mark, the pack for that year having been 3,543,137. The average pack for nine years, 1883-1891, has been 2,765,446. The average for the three years I889-'91 inclusive, has been 3,185,769. Thus has a great industry been built up within a recent period. Like the salmon trade, tomato packing met with difficulties, but it surmonnted them by energy and pluck. The consumer as well as the packer has benefited by this growth. In 1887 prices ranged from t)5 cents to $1.10, while last year the highest and lowest prices were 80 and 85 cents per dozen, respectively. There is a' close affinity between fruit and tomatoes. There is much instruction to be derived by pack ers from the careful study of the above details. .. Wasco : farmers may ponder over them with. profit, and inquire why they, who can raise tomatoes by the million bushels, gain so little by this profitable industry. " Unwarranted Eztraraganees. Conservative Oregonians will chuckle to themselves over the satisfactory evi dence of wisdom in not voting big sala ries to a set of people to represen t the state at Chicago next year, when they read in .the Tribune, which can hardly be deemed a harsh critic, of the meth ods in vogue in the preparations for the Columbian fair. ' The Tribune speaks out with considerable emphasis about the extravagance which has crept into the management of that enterprise. An example of what is meant is furnished by the list of salaried directors,' who have had nothing whatever to do up to date'. . The local director of foreign af fairs, for example, receives f 10,000 for doing nothing except to look important; the traffic manager gets f 5,000 a year for carrying around his title, and the head of the department of publicity gets $7,500 for the easiest job he ever had in his life. The head of the Latin-American department is likewise a paid ser vant of the - general government, and gives the fair only nominal service. He gets $5,000, and a similar salary is paid to the choral director, whose duties are equally arduous with tho others. The same extravagant notions appeared to have governed the arrangements of the salary list of the hundreds of subordi nates, and it is allowed that it is in part owing to such recklessness as this that Chicago got only half the appropriation it asked for from Congress. It is not surprising to hear that a horizontal cut down has been ordered. Oregon should be represented - at the fair, but until people come down to the level beaded way the Centennial was handled by Hon. A. J. Dufur, of this county, "not much", must be ex pected ; and we speak . of this - to the credit of Oregon." " ' ' " ' : . .
