light mustache. It was apparent that

struck by some heavy instrument. He
had a letter in his pocket, addressed
Dear Brother, and signed Lease. The
seal of the car had been broken.

be prepared and rushed through as soon'

THE DALLES. - OREGON
morning did not arrive until after mid
night and the passengers became very
impatient, and drew up a set of resolu
tions condemning the company for not
being more energetic in sending a relief
train to the scene. This is in keeping
with the management, as they sent a
locomotive to The Dalles simply to"turn
it aronnd," when there was a turn-table
at Bonneville. What is the matter
with the turn-table at Bonneville? Why
was it hot used? It is unfortunate for
the company that such slides occur, and
they have our sympathy but when ac
cidents such as this do occur, it is time
to get a move on.
THE CASCADE LOCKS.
Iiist of Bids Submitted for Completing
tHe Work by Contract.
oliowing lar the list of the . bids re
ceived by Major Handbury, United
States engineers, for completing - the
canal at the cascades :
Oscar Huber, Spokane, Wash., $1,-679,5-10.41
; Dickinson & Co., Tacoma,
Wash., $1,526,303; N. J. Blagen, Port
land, Or., $2,305,882; J. G. & I. N. Day,
San Francisco, Cal., $1,519,765; C. D.
Vincent & John Mahony, San Francisco,
$1,997,212.25; J. P. M. Phillips et al.,
San Francisco,' Cal., $1,799,598.87.
The estimate of the government engi
neers for doing this work was $1,586,833
with 10 per cent, added for engineering
contingencies and inspection expenses.
'Under the construction of the law gov
erning this contract says the Oregonian,
but two of these bids could receive rec
ommendation. From this 'it will be
seen that it will cost about the same to
have the work done by contract . as by
the government;" - The saving in time
whichwill be effected by the contract
system has been -fully demonstrated at
Sault Ste. Marie, and elsewhere ; and
does not "remain to be found out." It
has been expected up this way that con
struction of the law governing this con
tract would be twisted out of all shape,
if necessary, to defeat the project.
