The New Railway.
Press dispatches confirm The Chroni
cle statement, made three weeks since,
that bonds for $1,000,000 have been
floated east by the Tacoma, Lake Park
and Columbia river railway for con
struction of the first fifty miles of the
extension to the Columbia river. This
information was received from President
Baisley, of New York, by Secretary J.
D. Miller at Tacoma. This is a line in
corporated to run between Tacoma and
The Dalles. Twelve miles of the line is
finished, and this loan will complete
fifty miles more in this direction. The
distance from The Dalles to Tacoma is
only about five miles farther" than the
distance between Portland and Tacoma,
hence the reader can readily observe
that day is dawning upon the Inland
Empire, which is not wedded to Port
land. The more, lines the more busi
ness, is the motto up here.
The Regulator Line.
What is generally known as the Regu
lator line of steamboats, on the Colum
bia river, will eooner or later become
famous. The incorporation is The
Dalles, Portland and Astoria Navigation
company. At present there are but two
teamers in the scheme, the Regulator
eaves The Dalles daily connecting at
Cascade Locks with the Oregon, Port
age Railway, and the steamer Dalles
City for Portland. The Regulator is
manned as follows : Capt. Fred H.
Sherman ; First Officer, Richard Fisher ;
Chief Engineer, McCulIy ; Purser, John
Hampshire; Steward, D. H. Merrill.
The time of the Regulator over the route
traversed by her, has never been beaten.
Round trip five hours.
The steamer Dalles City, plying below
the locks to Portland, has made some of
the most remarkable trips ever made by
a steamer of her dimensions in Pacific
coast waters. Her captain is S. V Short ;
First Officer, John Delmar; Chief Engi
neer, Jas. Gilbraith; Asst. Engineer,
Chas. Granlund ; Purser, Truman Butler ;
Steward, H. Person.
Now that it may be reasonably stated
the contract for the completion of the
cascade locks is let, and an open river
is assured, we expect to see the fleet of
Regulator steamers increase in a ratio
corresponding to the development of the
country, and it is earnestly hoped that
they may secure the lion's share of the
business of the Inland Empire. They
need not necessarily all belong to one
corporation, but they may all be con
sidered Regulators.

HIGHLY PRIZED RELICS.
ralnables And Keepsakes on Deposit
la The Dalles.
"In the days of old, the days of gold ;
the days of '49," it was not considered
anything unusual for a miner to "deposit
his sack" with a friend or acquaintance
who happened to have a safe, ' in Cali
fornia anywhere. Many interesting in
cidents of this nature have been re
ported from time to time, and we re
member having reported an occasional
incident of this kind in Oregon, years
ago ; but the most notable one that has
come under our observation occurred in
this city Saturday evening, when Louie
Davenport, who was the retail banker at
The Dalles in 1862-63, applied to Pease
Mays for a sack deposited 20 years
go with their predecessors French &
IcFarland. In a few moments the sack
as brought out, Ljuie asked the charg-
s on it,- which amounted to nothing,
anked the gentlemen for their kind
ness and put the sack into his pocket
and went his way.
Traveling together the next day Louie
told us of the circumstance, produced
the sack, which was one of those long
buckskin styles used here in the days of
gold duet, tied with a thong, and bear
ing his name. "I haven't seen a thing
there is in that sack for 20 years," said
Louie, "but I can name almost every
thing it contains." At .our suggestion
we both adjourned to the purser's office,
we were on the steamer Regulator, and
Louie opjned the sack.
There was a Spanish dollar, new when
it was put away, which was given to
Mrs. Davenport on their marriage, in
1865, by Mr. Krouse.
A pair of elegant baby bracelets, a
present to Rosa Davenport from Mrs.
Jas. Teal, when Rosa reached her first
birthday. -. They were made to order by
Goldbaum, the popular jeweler of "those
days. Next week they go to Rosa's
baby, now Mrs. P. H. Robinson, of Port
land. Spanish dollar 1871; . Guatemala
dollar 1871 ; gold quartz sieve buttons,
made from samples from the Ruckel
mine, and presented to Mr. Davenport
by Col. Ruckel, when he was president
of the Oregon Steam Navigation com
pany. Mr. Davenport also has the $300
watch with magic cases, and rich quartz
fob, and gold buckel, worn by Col.
Ruckel in the sixties.
Among other things were numerous
keepsakes, including notes given in 1862
and 1867, payable in United States gold
coin, with incerest till paid. Among
those old signers appears the name of
Jose Maria Lopez, one of the most noted
and daring packers of those early times.
His I. O. U. is a sort of reminder to Mr.
Davenport that although it seems high
in these days the per cent, of interest in
1862 was not too large for a safe business.
There was also sC solid gold ring made
to order, worth about $50, and a $5.00
button of gold, dug by Louie in his
younger days, in 1853, in the mines of
Althouse, Southern Oregon. And a gold
chain, saved from a wreck at Crescent
city in 1856. And last but not least his
tax receipt, for $17.00 taxes' paid to
Sheriff Schutz and receipted by Will S.
Bahr, deputy. Louie remembers that
that was about the last act he did before
depositing the eack with French &
Gilman in 1872. ; "

The Annual Holidays.
No paper will be. issued from The
Chronicle office tomorrow, as it is a na
tional and state holiday. The Printers
will not be able to get a day off on
Chrism as and New Year this season as
their recurrence is on Sunday. We
sometimes think, with all the new an
nual holidays getting on to the Ameri
can calendar: "What ehall we do with
them?" It is becoming a question more
serious than humorous. It is much
discussed just now, as it is at the recur
rence of every American holiday, Christ
mas excepted. Heaven be praised,
there's one holiday that withstands the
modern aversion to celebration. Pres
ent and future generations are tolerably
sure of their Christmas ; partly because
it is rooted in the church, but chiefly
because it is the crown of the year for
the children, and until children go out
of fashion and everybody is born old and
mean, Christmas thall not vanish from
the earth.

New York, Nov. 21. A special from
Valparaiso says: "Leadiug Chilians
say they consider it an act of great
courtesy on the part of the United States
government in changing the place for
holding the sittings of the claims com
mission from Washington to Santiago,
and that it will . greatly lessen the ex

people, as well as the authorities, intend
to show every possible courtesy to Ad
miral Gherardi and his fleet. Special
trains from various parts of the republic
will be run while the ships are in port."
The Parting: of the "Ways.
Wilkins and Watkins were college
chums and close friends. They had
been hard students and had taken little
out-door exercise. When they shook
hands and said good-bye at the end of
their college career, they were in im
paired health. Both had dyspepsia,
liver troubles and troublesome coughs.
Wilkins had plenty of money, and
decided to travel for his health. Wat
kins was poor. "I must go to work for
my living," said he, "but I'll try the
remedy that Robinson talk9 so much
about Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery."
In less than two years Wilkins came
home in his coffin. Watkins, now in
the prime of life, is a bank president,
rich and respected, and weighs 200
pounds. "The 'Golden Medical Dis
covery' saved my life at a critical time,"
he often says. "Oh, if poor Wilkins
had only tried it!". For weak lungs,
spitting of blood, all lingering coughs,
and consumption in its early stages, it
is an unequaled remedy.
