People of the Inland Fmpire must not be confused by the name of the man Norton, who is reported to be in the country securing signatures to remon strances for an appropriation by the Or egon assembly for the dalles portage; with the name of the civil engineer Nor ton, 'who made the surveys for The Dalles and Celilo railway. The Norton in the field now is another man, secured perhaps because of his name, to represent the enemies of the portage railwav, and, by the name, he better enabled to mis represent the facts. Have nothing to do with him, nor his remonstrances. advifsed bv Judge Liebe and Mr, T. A.

Current rumors, to the effect that Day Bros, had withdrawn their bid for the completion of the caecade locks and canal, were set at rest Saturday by the following dispatch from Hon. J. N.

I have just seen" the chief of en gineers. He knows nothing about with drawal of bid. Day has been here and is much pleased to get the contract. Tacoma bidders have been here, trying to secure the contract. If there is any thing in the rumor it is an arrangement between bidders. If Day Bros, fail, the contract will be let to the next lowest bidder, and not again advertised. J. N. Dolph. Another Pioneer Gone. Rev. Stipp, a pioneer Baptist preach er, is dead. He was buried at Macleay Saturday.. He was well known in this county by the pioneers, especially of the Waldo hills. Mr. Stipp, if we are not pnistaken, came to Oregon with an ox 'team in 1845. , In early days Father 'Stipp, as he was called, preached in very neighborhood in the Willamette, iwhich was all Oregon. He had a mis- sion and Pioneer. filled it Farewell. well. Hail, Brother Very Narrow Kscapen. Saturday evening, as Hon. G. W Johnson and Mai. , Anderson of Dnfur were returning homewards from The Dalles, they met Mr. William Ashby with his freight team on the eight-Mile grade, at which point their team - be came unmanageable and ran off the grade, throwing Mr. Anderson out, and but for the timely assistance of Mr. Ashby, who left his own team and went to their aid, a serious accident might have resulted. As it was, fortunately nothing of the kind occurred. ' ' Another runaway accident occurred last night on the Dufur road to Mr. Jacobsen.f He had been to Dufur, in his buggy, and had been belated there. When darkness surrounded him on the road he took the'precantion to prepare himself for any emergency that might arise, by lowering the top of hie buggy and removing the storm robe from his knees. He let his animal take the road and trusted to her, as it was so dark he could not see a foot from his face. All went well until the fiverMile hill was reached on the Benson road. Here the mare diverged from the track, upset the buggy, threw Mr. Jacohsen, and went alone. The buggy was smashed to smithereens, and the contents strewn aloug the road. Mr. Jess Blakeney had left Dufur ahead of Mr. Jaeobsen, but the latter passed him before the acci dent occurred. The mare was some what cut up, but she was found and brought to the city. -Thev reached here about 10:30 p. m., much . fatigued from! the trip. Wanted. " A girl to do housework. " Inquire at T..A.

It won't make new lungs hut it will make diseased ones healthy when nothing else will. There's reason for it, too. Consumption is Lung scrofula. For every form of scrof ula, and all blood-taints, the "Dis covery " is a positive cure. It's the most potent strength - restorer, blood -'cleanser, and flesh - builder known to medical science. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and all lingering Coughs, it's an une qualed remedy. It's a guaranteed one. If it doesn't benefit or cure, you have your money back. You've everything to gain from it nothing to lose. , It's especially potent in coring Tetter, Salt-rheum, Eczema, Erysip elas, Boils, Carbuncle's, Sore Eyes, Goitre, or Thick Neck, and Enlarged Glands, Tumors and Swellings. Great Eating Ulcers rapidly heal under its benign influence. i PHOTOGRAPH ER. First premium at the Wasco county mir for best portraits and views. COLUMBIA CANDY FACTORY Campbell Bros.
