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 genuine novelties in "Che
Dry Goods Department, and the ladies will . 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,
;The Dalles Daily Chfoniele.

Thlng-g to Be Remembered.
The "jumping jack" is .beautifully il
lustrated in the comments of the Port
land Telegram respecting the recon
sideration of the Raley bill in the senate
for the dalles portage railway. Listen
to the following: "A badly disguised
attempt to keep up appearance before
congress is about all there is in the re
consideration.". . Butler made the mo
tion, and advocated its passage- by a
strong and sensible speech. Weather
ford followed in the same strain, and
Raley spoke with much earnestness of
the needs of Eastern Oregon, and how it
had willingly borne its share of the
taxation for the benefit of other parts of
the state. Alley, Cogswell and others,
who are against the bill, would not op
pose a reconsideration if, as was under
stood; it was for the purpose of a com
mittee of Investigation to report two
years hence. With this understanding,

..Speaking about taxes in the consoli
dated city, a Portland paragrapher says :
'.'A city with a tax of four per cent, can
not prosper long. It is only a question
of a few brief years when its property
will so deteriorate in value that an eight
percent, tax will be necessary to meet
its obligations. It won't be long before
property will be a burden no man will
want to carry. Portland owes debts
enough. An increase will discourage
investment within its boundaries. Its
heretofore healthy progress will be re
tarded. Fiee bridges,- mountains of
debt, and no money will remind us of
the proflgacy of 1893."
When the bill to appropriate $10,000
to blast a fish way in Ihe rock at the falls
at Oregon city came up for a vote in the
assembly, you didn't see a man from
the Inland Empire skulking disgrace
fully, avoiding a manly vote nor gyra
ting about its only being a benefit to the
valley. We are told that even Cogswell
and Dodson voted for ft. In our estima
tion this is a very important measure to
the people ol the valley, and we are
glad that it received the hearty support
pf our members in the legislature. We
shall be pleased to hear that Pete Gates
and Veatch have been etuficd with fresh
salmon by this process, but shouldn't
weep if called upon to write a Hayes
obituary on "choked to death by a fish
bone."
Charley Nickel, the gentleman from
Jackson, in the lower house of the Ore
gon assembly 6ays: "A jute mill in the
penitentiary would furnish cheap wheat
sacks for the farmer, and at the same
time would not compete with : any kind
of labor in tho state. The biggest in
dustry now within the walls of the
state prison is that of stove making,
which is a competitive industry that
huts out all other opposition. Give us
cheap sack for our wheat and wool.
"In God We Trnt."
The motto. "In God We Trust." which
now stamped npon all gold and silvei
iins pf the U nitfsd States, was suggest
ed by an old farmer living in Maryland.
Thia conscientious Christian gentleman
thought that our currency should indi
cate in some way the Christian charac
ter of our nation, which, be argned,
could be best done by putting a motto
upon our coins expressing a national re
liance on divine support in govern
mental affairs. It was in 1SC1, when S.
P. Chase was secretary of the treasury
that this man wrote to Washington re
specting his pet idea. 11 is letter was re
ferred to Mint Director Pollock, who
discussed the question in his report of
18C2.
Pollock and Chase were in favor of
introducing the motto at once, but con
gress gave the suggestion no attention
whatever. In his next annual report
Director Pollock again referred to the
matter, thia time in firm theological ar
gument, saying, The motto suggested,
'God Our Trust," is taken from our na
tional hymn, 'The. Star- Spangled Ban
ner;' the sentiment is familiar to every
citizen of our country: tho time is pro
pitious; tis an hour of national peril.
Let na reverently acknowledge hia sov-
' ereignty, and fet our coinage declare our
trust in God.

Will you kindly remind the delegation
in the assembly from this county that
at the last nominating convention both
the republican and democratic conven
tions passed a resolution declaring that
the additional 33 per cent allowed to
clerks and sheriffs should be restricted
in this county. As we have not seen
any bill introduced to that effect aa yet,
we hope you will not fail to see that the
will of the people, as expressed in that
resolution, shall be carried out. Myself
and some of my neighbors want to see
the fees allowed the county officers at
the last term of the county court. The
same was omitted from the last official
publication. Tax Paykb.

stomach be disordered you have a dys
