MAYS.
Mr. R. Boplan, of Mayrisch Bros. &
Co., San Francisco, passed up the road
last night on his first outing for 1893.
He paid The Dalles a pleasant visit yes
terday. Secretary Sargent, of the State Horti
cultural society, gave us the following
recipe to protect fruit trees from the
ravages of rabbits : For a bucket full
mix a thin white wash, into which put
three hands full of 6ulphur, one pound
of salt, half a pint of gas tar, mix with
earth to a paste, and apply to the tree.
It is a sure "preventive, and will not
injure the tree. ' :
Capt. Geo. Flavel, a pioneer of Oregon
whose home has been in Astoria for
over 40 consecutive years, is reported to
be lying at the point of death. He is 70
years of age, and his sickness is of such
a serious nature', that ' the hope of re
covery is almost impossible.
Mr. Lark Lamb had. quite an experi
ence- Saturday hunting coon on Cheno
weth creek. He succeeded in treeing
one sly fellow in a hollow log, and
brought him to light, but it was a nip
and tnck catch. The coon had Lamb
by the thumb, and Lamb had the coon
by the neck. Both were caught. Lamb
has his thumb done up, and if not
troubled with blood poisoning may come
out all right.
Why will Sherman county papers per
sist in misrepresenting the facts at issue
concerning remarks of The Chronicle
on the taxes of that county. The valua
tions were not discussed, hence The
CnnoNirLK has never used the expres
sion th;it t!io valuation was $400,000 or
any other sum "less this year than last."
It was a taxpayer of Sherman county
who called attention to the fact that his
taxes were higher since, than they were
before, the creation of the new county.
A Dalles City subscriber who paid his
proportion of the tax necessarv to pay
for the locks at Oregon City, asks why
Eastern Oregon is not as worthy of a
state appropriation for the improvement
of the Columbia as the valley, was for
.the improvement of the Willamette.
Any scheme to tax the counties along
the river for this improvement, and
exempt the balance, would be unfair.
Attention of the traveling public is
called to the new advertisement of The
Dalles and Prineville Stage Co. in today's
issue. Mr. Parrish is again superin
tendent, and will give good service on
the line. He is one of the best stage
men on the coast, always getting his
stages through regardless of the inclem
ency of the weather. He will put on
new coaches and thoroughly refit the
line in a short time, so as to offer the
best accommodations to passengers.
We observe that Gov. Pennoyer and
Rep. M. A. Miller of Linn county, are
figuring out how another fish ladder
may be constructed at Willamette falls.
One day recently they spent some time
over at the great water fall carefully ex
amining its contour and the formation
of its bed. They were satisfied from
what they saw that for about $5,000 the
state could blast an everlasting and ser
viceable fishway out of the solid rock.
They should visit Celilo falls during the
run of salmon, and note the way th
Royal Chinook Salmon glides up through
the water, over a cliff much higher than
the falls at Oregon City. The fish ap
pear to halt, after making the ascent,
as if to thank the Duke of Celilo. I. H.
Taffe, for making it so accessible, and
he didn't ask the state for $5,000 to pay
for it, either. "Please place thai sum
to the credit of the dalles state portage."

We would call attention to the follow
ing clipping cut from the Portland Tele
gram : "The immense amount of capi
tal at the command of the leading
Building and Loan Associations is a
proof of the popularity cf these co-operative
savings banks. The promptness
with which some of the leading National
Associations grant loans on approved
security is remarkable. An instance of
this promptness was given the other day
by the New England National .Building,
Loan and Investment Association. An
application for 'a loan of $17,950 was
made at 3 p. m. ; at 5 the loan had been
passed upon and approved and property
appraised. The next morning at 9 the
mortgage for the amount applied for was
duly executed and filed for record. What
makes this bit of news particularly in
teresting is that the New England is a
home institution. The Telegram was
able to secure a glance at the annual re
port of this association, though it has
not yet been published, and 'we would
say that it sets forth a wonderfully pros
perous state of affairs." It would be a
good thing we should think if one of our
citizens received the agency for this
company here at home.
We are pleased to hear that a change
has taken place in the superintendency
of the slate portage railway at cascade
locks on the 1st of January. The new
incumbent is Mr. C. C. Hobert of
this city, a thorough gentleman, and a
man with an experience in railroading
which will qualify him to give the pub
lic perfect satisfaction in that position.
Mr. Hubbard was for many years mas
ter mechanic of the U. P. R. at The
Dalles, in which capacity he never failed
to exhibit the type of generalship when
it was required of him in the event of
any emergency arising, and at the same
time not lose sight of the fact that where
the spirit of mutual accommodation pre
vailed ;there was the greatest success
achieved. We have not the slightest
hesitation in saying that if Mr. Hobart
bad been superintendent of the portage
railway the past year a very much better
showing might have been made than
has been made under the management
of Mr. Ryan. We shall now feel that
there is some foundation for the hope
that the results of the railway invest
ment at Cascade Locks by the state, may
be more fully appreciated.
Pendleton has a local organization
known as the Columbia Congress. Last
night the subject for discussion was "An
act to regulate foreign immigration."
An important subject for discussion
with a full report would be "An act to
open the Columbia river and regulate
Inland Empire transportation rates.

Something is lost
when you use Dr. Sage's Catarrh.
Remedy. It's Catarrh. The -worst
cases yield to its mild, soothing;
cleansing, and healing properties.
No matter how bad your case, or of
how long standing, you can be cured.
Incurable cases are rare. It's worth
$500 to you, if you have one. The
manufacturers of Dr. Sago's Remedy
are looking for them. They'll pay
you that amount in cash, if they
can't cure you. It's a plain square
offer from a responsible businesa
house, and they mean it. It seems
too one-sided, too much of a risk.
It would be with any other medi
cine behind it. It only goes to prove,
what's been said : incurable cases
are rare with Dr. Sage's Catarrh.
Remedy.
Other so-called remedies may pal
liate for a time ; this cures for all
time. . By its mild, soothing, cleans
ing and healing properties, it con
quers the worst cases. It removes
offensive breath, loss, or impairment
of the sense of taste, smell or hear- -ing,
watering or. weak eyes, when,
caused by the violence of Catarrh,
as they all frequently are.
Remedy 6oJd by druggists, only
