It is difficult to place good company here, since the fire destroyed the Opera house ; but in this case it is hoped some ar-, , Tangement may be made.

It seems queer that in times such as this, when architects are prepared to prove that it is cheaper tq Lil'tld of brick or stone than wood, that, the question of poverty should be raised to exempt any ono froui violations, of a fire limit ordinance. .'. 1 : School" opens next' Monday, and the ' - : boys will heed new- acuta.

A WEST END COMPLAINT. The Vandal Hand of tlie Tramp Adver tiser llevenled. It is about time The Dalles had ah or dinance to prevent traveling bill posters from tacking their cards every where in discriminately. A gentleman living in West End recently painted his fence, and fixed up nicely about his premises, when'along comes a.fellow and up goes half a dozen cow brand cards. They were promptly but indignantly removed, the scars from nail heads filled, and all went smoothly until last week when an other. tramp came along and' gave the fence another dose. '' This was repeated yesterday by a third irresponsible van dal. It is certainly exasperating, but what can a man do? Petition the common council to license one responsible bill poster for the city who will put up boards in suitable places, and after tearing down and wip ing out tho disgraceful disorder and unsightly ragged edges of the present tax of systematic work, give the licensed bill-poster authority to pull the very next tramp who enters the city with any kind of placard in the attempt to repeat tho obnoxious work. Look at our electric light poles, our awning posts, our very door sills that bear the trace of such vandal bands, whose only care is to get their name before the public by . bumming a place, and you will ' certainly agree with The Chronicle that it is a cause for aggrava tion such as our west end resident com plains of. If . there is no adequate law to fit the case, make one. Congratulation. Everything is lovely at Celilo fishery today, and Mr Tafib has a big run of fine, fat silverside salmon to care for.

Was traveling in the old-fashioned way, in a rocking chair in a farm wagon. A teamster working for Tom Glavey has managed to breakthe tongue out of the same wagon threo times . within a week. Wagonmaker PVatt is praying for him and for more like him. ', Wheat-hauling has begun in earnest, and a little work os the roads, filling up the chuckholes before they get too deep, would save tho farmers many times the cost in wagon repairs, and more, they could haul much easier. It is a great deal of fun to run a news paper. The eyes of the wholo commu nity are watching tho. editor; his actions, bis business and his paper are criticised to an extent almost incredible. If he happens to go away on business he is accused of neglecting his town busi ness and riding out his "pass. If he never goes away he is said to be too close to go away to learn anything for the benefit of the town, because he might lose a nickel by doing so. If he works all day at his office and spends his evenings .'at; his books and getting "copy," ho is called distant, cold and not in sympathy with the public inter ests of the'town because ho is never around. If he ia hunting locals and visiting business men, ho ia lazy and shiftless "and undeserving of support, because bo can never be found at bis office. If he misses an item, the one interested in that particular item says the paper never lias anything in it. If he has the courtesy to give tho W. C. T. U. or temperance people a small part of his space, he is a temperance crank and fanatic. . If .he thinks it better for the financial welfare to license the liquor traffic instead of prohibiting it, he is an odious, whiskeyite. . In. short some people want everything for nothing. Died Like a Hero. A dispatch from Esliu, Ohio, tells of the heroic resignation of James Ferguson, a locomotive engineer "who was yester day caught between two beams when his engine was derailed ".with some twenty cars, and was pionioned fast. The train caught fire and Ferguson was' soon sur rounded by " flames. . ' He ' realized ' his position, thanked the crew heartily for their efforts in his behalf, and requested them to take down" hia last requests. He sent fender messages to his wife and children," at Delaware, Ohio, gave direct Ions about his business affairs, and bade each member of the crew gpod-by.' ;Dis posing his body in as comfortable a posi tion, as possible, he wrapped hia bead in his jacket and died without a word. - - , . .

LAUGHLIN, - "General Manager. THE DALLES, - OREGON THE 1UO SHOVEL. Mountains and Bridges Disappearing Below Crate Point. A person riding over the U. P. R. be tween The Dalles and Portland wonders sometimes "how on earth" the builders managed to make the line so crooked. They wero building by the mile, you eee ; and the bugaboo of the frightful j'b and the immense obstacles In their way, all "in the eye," however ; enabled them to lay up savings from extravagances upon which they have 6ince'retired to lives of ease, and tho true builders of railways, the men who follow in the wake of the first ''gang,' are now here doing the work over again. It was the good fortune of the writer yesterday afternoon to have an extra hour on hand when Conductor Comer came along witli tho west-bound pass enger, and we put it into a run to Row tna, where we boarded ' the caboose to tho'lowcr construction, and returned to tho point, whero the huge steam iron and steel shovel does' the wor5 of 200 men daily, loading rock upon cars to fill the bridges below Crates.. The work is carried on by two "trains of sixteen cars, each carrying a load of 168 yards of earth or rock. The last train-load was taken on last evening in exactly thirty five minutes' time, ' by Mr. Thrift's watch. The shovel is operated by F. A. Glynn, engineer, T. O. Rourkp crane man, and Pat. Nee, . fireman. Messrs. Wicke and Nichols have charge of the locomotives, and, all told, this force numbering twenty-six men are practi cally causing thia mountain of rock and the bridges to disappear, by removing one to cover up the other. '- ' To see the shovel at work is a thrill ing, and at . the same time fascinating experience. It ',1s a . wonderful invent tion, without which, with "its attendant appliances for furnishing the iron, cutting and handling thie timbers, ties, etc., etc., the inventions -of man at the opportune moment," perhaps we might not yet have, a railway across this portion. of the continent. The movement of the crane, the ecoop, the drop, etc.-, seem more like that of the human frame, and makes one feel as though the machine was possessed of the- faculty of ". percep tion. ' It would ' be impossible for us to describe its many intricate mechanical connections or its noiee, when in -operation. Sitting irk position to command the numerous levers, tho engineer, Mr. Glynn, who has almost been raised on one of these machines, seems to ' handle the whole ' namiu6th affair about 'as easily ' as ho "would vdrive i a horse and buggy. It is all confined, to a bar about the size of an average freight car, which is blocked on a eide track laid purposely for it, and It cuts a swath thirty-two feet wide. .The mountain upon which they are now working has always given the railway ' officials trouble in conse quence of dangerous and almost con stant slides. The expense of repairs and watching will be done away with at this point hereafter. It is an almost perpendicular cliff of shell rock, with a base walled up with sufficient room only for the main single track. The party have: now been at. work three weeks, and at a cost of $17400 have filled trestles thus making a permanent road, here after free from the dangers of loss by fire, expense of watching, etc., equal to the coist of re-building in timber if once destroyed by fire, thus proving tlie truth of the old adage that what is worth doing ia worth doing well. . yOH H G 109 SECOND STREET, : - PAU L KR EFT & CO., -DEALERS IN- PAINTS, OILS . .
