WE HAVE rather neglected our Advertising of late, not
because we had nothing to sell; but we had nothing
especially new to offer, and preferred to wait until we could
say something of interest. We are, and have been for some
time, busily engaged in placing our orders for Spring and.
Summer Goods and feel justified in announcing, that we
shall have the FINEST ASSORTMENT and the BEST
GOODS in all our lines that has ever been seen in The
Dalles. We have secured some genviine novelties in the
Dry Goods Department, and the ladies Avill certainly con
sult their best interests by deferring their purchases until
after their , arrival, of which we shall give you due notice.
Keep both eyes on this space and we will certainly surprise
you not only with the goods, but the .prices at which we
shall sell them. We mean business and propose to have
your patronage, if LOW PRICES and the BEST
GOODS will accomplish it. Yours Respectfully, '

One of the most enjoyable events of
the season, took place at the residence
of M. M. Cushing on the trrening of the
20th inst., in honor of his son Milo -and
family, who are visiting relatives and
friend? in this vicinity. About twenty
couples assembled to bid them welcome
to their old home and friends. A
bountiful repast was served consisting of
al! the delicacies of the season . The ti me
was passed in visiting and dancing until
the not very small hours of the morning,
all departed with wishes for many
happy returns of the occasion. Mrs.
Milo Cushing is a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Wm. Floyd, of the firm of Floyd &
Shown, and a sister of Mrs.-Shown.
And their children, two fine handsome
boys, ciime in for their share of the usual
comments; that one was like the Floyds
and one like the Cushings; they are
very much like their parents, and the
relatives on both sides are to be con
gratulated. Especially the grand
parents have just cause for pride in the
fine appearance of their children and
grandchildren. A Fkiexd.

' Ttgh Vali-ey, Or., Jan. 22. To the
members of the assembly. Onr'people
are very jnxious for . the change to pay
all cour yy officers salaries instead of
fees. There is no reason why the ser
vice would not be as efficient and at a
much less cost to taxpayers. Pay them
good salaries, not too much though ; for
there is plcnt3 of good ability in the
county very anxious to fill tho offices.
The clamor that is a source of so much
annoyance to the better class of people
at every nominating convention is al
most entirely over " who shall be county
clerk and sheriff;" 'all for the reason
that the taxpayers are paying from two
to three times as much for the.service in
these two" offices as .it rs Avorth. Of
course the present incumbents in the
offices will insist that the , present fee
system barely rewards the officers for
eervices rendered and point to the fact
that none of the officers retire rich ;
but it is obvious to every close-observing
man that if economy prevailed with the
incumbents of . these offices, as it does
with any successful business man, they
would all leave the county offices with a
nice stake laid up. Business men are
working for very small margins. Farm
ers are having to rustle to live at all,
while the clerks and sheriffs through
the state receive the compensation they
now do. Taxpayers will kick, and they
ought to.- Gentlemen, don't forget that
the people expect you to put these
officers on salaries. Axon.

L. Q. D. Lamar died there last night.
Death was sudden in the extreme, for,
since the justice has been there, he had
appeared gradually to have been gain
ing. Last evening he- visited for some
lime with a friend, Dr. Llewellyn,' and
just after the doctor left his bouse, about
eight o'clock, he was seized with violent
pains in the heart and died in a little
while.

very - suddenly yesterday morning, at

heart failure, followed a , spasmodic
coughing epell, of a short duration.
The friends of Mr. E. P. Roberts, who
is in Southern California for his health,
will regret to hear that his condition is
not encouraging.
Stop your kicking. If you come from
the east, don't say a word against the
Inland Empire ; for you have no reason.
Look at reports of the weather in the
region you came fioru, and the long list
of sick. It seems ae though everybody
has a cold, five in every ten have the

scarce and costly, and business is dull.
