The jam in the circuit court room
during the Birgfeld trail, where every
space available was taken up, proved
one thing thrft should be attended to
without delay. That is that the exit
doors open the wrong way. They should
be changed so as to swing out. In case
of a stampede from a fire alarm, or some
such event, on an occasion when there
is a crowd present in that room, there
would be no possible means of averting
serious injury, if not death to many
persons, beyond doubt. It is some sur
prise that this matter has so long es
caped the observation of grand juries.

' Kobert tf. Hill is the name ot the in
dividual who has been sporting that
mansard roof, and those rich, ebony
fringed and claret lined eyes about The
Dalles the past week or so. He hails
from Evanston, Cook county, 111., and is
evidently on the ragged edges ot a long
continued jag. He is held in the city
jail for an officer from Portland who is
expected up tonight. Just what Hill is
wanted for is not currently reported.
His kid gloves and other effects, includ
ing letters from his father refusing any
more money except as stiputated twice
yearly, and from his mourning mother
brimful of love and compassion for her
wayward son, show that he has seen
better days.
There is nothing
fact, apparently just
in certain quarters;
surprising in the
learned by some,
that "cranberries
grow in Oregon much better than at
Cape Cod." The surprise would be to
find anything that may be planted
that the soil and climate of Oregon did
not improve. Cranberries are not an
exception to this universal rule. Mr. E.
Stearns, formerly of Portland, who has
been residing at Alsea for several years,
has sent to his brother in the city a
sample of cranberries raised on his
place, which for size and general excel
lence surpass any received from abroad.
These are the first cranberries seen in
Portland which were grown on Oregon
soil, and Allen at once filed a request
for a lot to be put up to go with the
Oregon fruit exhibit to the Columbian
exposition. Thev will be sent over by
Mr. S. and will be in keeping with the
;rest of the exhibit.

In regard to the contract for construct
ing the locks at the cascades, nothing
more is known at the engineer's office
than was known a week ago. Major
Handbury recommended that one of the
proposals received be accepted by the
government, but that is a long way
from the contract being let. The suc
cessful bidder must furnish satisfactory
bonds in the sum of $400,000 before the
contract will be awarded, and it is not
everybody who is capable of giving such
bonds that is willing to do so.
Maj. Handbury's recommendation "is
a long way from the contract being let."
Here is evidence clear enough that the
Oregonian has an abiding hope that the
contract may not be let at all. Its inti
mation with respect to the bonds is the
Billiest prattle. There are responsible
names sufficient attached to Messrs.
Day's bond to give it weight, although we
are free to admit that "it ia not every
body who is capable of giving such bonds"
and they tiave filed it for approval along
with their contract, as recommended
by Maj. Handbury. The Oregonian
must know this. Then why print such
squibs as the above, which only reveal
to the public the cloven-footed malev
olence of the writer? It is such rancor
that would seem to justify this whole
community ia boycotting the Oregonian,

we are informed not a dozen copies are

eart toward the Inland Empire which
It is impossible to account for in any
.reasonable manner. The patronage of
he Inland Empire bestowed upon the
Oregonian, leaving out the part of prin
cipal .' entirely ; should be sufficient to
attract to us an occasional intimation of
amiability. But not a word do we find
of any kindliness or good nature
from that source. Its reference to the
cascade canal is always of an ill natured,
spiteful, raukling bitterness. No kind
offices and good treatment from the peo
ple up this way ever seems to be worthy
of a good turn. Even the tail organ of
the Oregonian, its Telegram has to sneer
at the prospect of an open Columbia
river. It says:
There are no new developments in the
matter of letting the contract for finish
ing the cascade locks. Major Handbury
has forwarded recommendations, and if
a contract is let the successful bidder
must put up $400,000 bonds.
The italic is ours. But who says the
successful bidder does not have to put
up? . The drift of the Telegram' is as
clearly shown in that word placed where
it is as need -be shown to any intelligent
mind.
Friends of an open river must not ex
pect any favors from the Oregonian, its
Telegram, if in fact from Portland, any
more than from the Union Pacific rail-,
way. '

The Dalles Markets.
Thursday, December 1. The week
past has been more quiet than any
former one of the season, on account of
the farmers improving the time in plow
ing and sowing fall grain. Prices re
main steady on all staple goods and
most kinds of produce. There is a fair
stock of vegetables in the market and
prices are unchanged. Eggs are more
scarce than at any time this season.
Our dealers have not advanced prices
over last weeks quotation, but will be
compelled to do so unless a shipment of
eastern arrives soon.
Good fresh butter is in better demand
and is shorter in supply " with an ad
vance in price in the near future. Pota
toes are more plentiful at the quotation
and have a downward tendency, that is
to say, a slight decline is expected.
Good clean green apples are dearer and
are marked up 25c per box. Poultry is
not coming- into market as freely as it
did before Thanksgiving, but prices
remain as quoted.
The wheat market is stationary on
former quotation, 62 for No. 1 and 57 to
60 cts. for other grades. The wool mar
ket is entirely bare and is off in quota
tions. ' Hides and pelts are weaker in
tone although former quotations are the
same. There is no change in the beef
market. Mutton sheep are scarce and
have turned a spot dearer. Fat pork is
coming into market lively for slaughter
at the quotation.
