Indications point to the fact that the
coming legislative assembly is to have
more than the average number of county
seat and county division contests.
If this pleasant weather continues,
The Dalles streets will soon again be of
the hard-pan-surface order. The muddy
places are drying up very rapidly.
That United States flag was not run
up this morning until 9 :30. It is "tech

A observer says" that banana juice
makes a first class indelible ink. A spot
on a white cloth from a dead-ripe banana
is marked forever, and the juice from
bananas thoroughly decayed is a bright,
clear carmine.
ChrUtmas goods at very low prices is
the common remark at all The Dalles
stores this week. The stocks are really
superb in all lines; the best exhibit
The Dalles has ever made in any pre
vious year.
Those wishing to see the celebrated
Stoddard Art Souvenir call on Mr.
Hughes at the store of Crandall' & Bur
get. We are pleased to show it to every
body whether you buy or not. Terms to
suit everybody.
Every citizen should consider the in
terests of The Dalles paramount to those
of any man or set of men. As a matter
of fact there must be two sides to every
question, but , in the main effort all
should pull together for the genera'
good.
Louie Davenport arrived at the stock

pioneer stage man longest in the Inland
Empire, has been in the city several
days on business with A. W. Branner,

dleton yesterday.
We are inclined to the belief that our
farmers will "miss it" by holding pota
toes. The Southern Pacific railway is
hauling potatoes to San Francisco for
almost nothing. There is a big crop
and the surplus will seek the points of
demand.
The livery and feed stables of the city
are a pretty Certain index of the amount
of country ousiness done in the city.
They are all -comfortably filled with
country teams today, and the large
stables of Robertson & Burham are over
flowing. ..

The old saying that a man who is his
wn lawyer has a fool for a client, mav
a little too sweeping. We would not
state the truth which it contains in
quite so harsh a form. But it is entirely
within the bounds to say that the claim
ant who tries to look after his own claim
instead of having It prosecuted ' by a
competent attorney does not understand
his own interests.
We have a large assortment of
articles for Fancy Work, Fancy
Silks, Pon-Pons, Splashers, Scarfs,

Quite a love scene was w itnessed on
! Washington street this morning between
a dusky maiden and her sweetheart.
The characters were, well played and as
true to life as though they were' con
ducted by pale faces. He humored her
pout, and finally kissing, they made up,
and he surrendered the pack to her.
Nearly every day there are fresh evi-
I dences accumulating to show the neces
sity for something in the shape of a
Bureau of Information, or board of trade
in The Dalles, We all know the usefnl
. ness of such organizations. We should
keep up a board of trade constantly, and
: not let another one die for lack of sop-
port.
Even in this "off' year in the valley,
according to reports the farmers have
realized handsomely from their prune
orchards. A car load was shipped to
Chicago last week from Oak Grove,
which had been purchased at 9 cents
per lb. One man realized $2,000 from
ten acres, another $1,900 from 5) acres.
The Dalles crops being better than any
thing in the valley, show much more
satisfactory returns.
A gentlen i an from Port Townsend in-
orms us that in Jefferson countv two
alles city men were up for office. R.
Moody, Bon of Gov. Moody, ran for
county attorney. His competitor was
elected by 141. J. N. Laubach, formerly
bookkeeper for Snipes & Kinersly, was
elected county clerk by thirty-three
majority. Both gentlemen are republi
cans, and both are popular.
Portland and Walla Walla ' are wrest
ling with the muddy streets, and- ac
cording to all accounts they are far
worse in either city than are the streets
of The Dalles. There seems to be no
way in which this nuisance, can be
abated. The rain will descend, and
travel makes mud and scatters it far anil
wide. Until all the etreets are perma
nently improved, and some adequate
system adopted to keep the thorough
fares clear of the all-pervading mud,
the public must endure the inconven
ience. '
We acknowledge the receipt of a beau
tiful boquet'of roses "from Mrs. S. L.
Brooks' flower garden, comprising the
following varieties: Safrano, - Mal
maison, Devonienses, Madam Bravy,
Hermosa, La France, Queen of Crimsons,
Mad. Rachel, Mad. Welch, Duchesse of
Brabant, and several others. What re
gion of country other , than Oregon can
duplicate this on the 16th day of Decem
ber? The Dalles, with its genial , clim
ate, 116 feet above sea level, nestled in
the heart of the fertile and prolific fruit
regions of the Inland Empire,' sends its
'fragrant and soul inspiring greeting to
ihose less cheerfully 'surrounded,1 pro
claiming : Come, there is ample room
with us for tens of thousands disposed
to better conditions by a change of lo
cality. Come, and unite your fortnnee
with us, where it a delight to live.
Capitalists will find no better openings
for business in America, than may be
found right here at The Dalles. It is
those who are abundantly able to enjoy
this climate that we. would especially
ask: "Lend us your ear." . . -'
Wm. Bethune, a rancher living near
Mitchell, was found dead in his bed at
The Umatilla this inorning. He has
been in the city for some time past,
rooming at The Umatilla, but was very
seldom seen about the hotel until after
nightfall. He has been an excessively
hard drinker, and this was the cause as
signed for his death ' by . the jury ,nt a
coroners inquest this forenoon. When
AAAAl
T
became to the hotel last evening be
could scarcely stand up, and actually
fell to the floor, bruising and cutting his
face, by the fall. He was taken to bis
room and a doctor sent for. Everything
that could be done for him was done,
and he was finally left comfortably
sleeping. During the night his spark of
life went out. . Coroner Eastwood was
notified, and a jury consisting of Messrs.
E. B. Johnson, J.: Fisher,- D. . N. iiber
sole, J. S. Schooling, J. Burger . and ; b.
C. Thurman, was empanneled. After
listening to the testimony : the jury re
t urned a verdict of death from .the ex
cessive use of alcoholic stimulants.
To glance over the local papers of the
.-tate, in nearly every . locality is found
this heading : "Another Pioneer Gone."
There ia something pathetic in this re
frain', and the constant rehearsing of it
eads one to wonder that. there are any
of the old pioneers left to tell the tales
of lyore. The latest reported death of a
pioneer is that of Judge J. Orvis Wat
erman, auditor of Skamania county,
Wash. His death occurred last Sunday
at the Cascades, and he was buried at
Washougal on Tuesday, by the I. O. O.
F. He was a charter member of Samar
itan No 2. In early days Judge ater
man was a. conspicuous figure among
men in Oregon. When Lot Whitcomb
laid out the town of Milwaukie, midway
letween Oregon City and Portland, it
was Carter & Waterman who established
the Star at that point and he, as its
editor, advocated the beauties of its
location. This was Nov. 15th, 1S50,
about a month, previous to the first
issue of the Oregonian by T. J. Dryer, in
the rival town of Portland, ten miles
below Oregon City.
