Some of tbe people'bf Gilliam county are triving to create a new county and make Arlington a county seat.

He re ports the roads very much improved the past few days. - Bob Palmer informed the Herald that he and two other men put up over ten tons of ice on the Meadow Lawn farm last week. Ten tons of ice in Antelope next July will bring quite a handsome gure. It is in the freight saved where e money comes. The ladies of The Dalles have recently organized a Glee Club, which is doing some good work in musical circles. The club met last evening at the residence of Mrs. C. ; J. Crandall. The Dalles people may look for some rare treats in the near future. The first -cent Columbus stamp to make its appearance in The Chronicle office, came from the Oregonian office yesterday, as postage on a letter to the editor.: - This year will see the Colum bian ideas sprung on the dear public as thick as snow flakes in a blizzard. Judge ' Bradshavv held an adjourned term of the eircuit court yesterday. Motions were decided in the -cases of Gibons, ; Macallister & Co. vs. A. A. Bonney & Bro. and Knapp Burrell & Co. vs W. H.

All will remember the evening as one of the moBt enjoyable of the season. Mr. Isenberg of Hood River, was in the city yesterday. That report about him working for the democratic ticket on election day proves tbe truthfulness of the old saying that a lie travels faster than the truth. - The correction of the joke has not yet reached the east, but tbe original yarn has gone around the globe twice. 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." Telegraph the Duke.

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. AdTertised tetters.

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.
