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
Dallesi We have secured some genuine novelties in the
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, hot 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,

ious and covered a wide range ; from the
annexation of Hawaii to chilblains, and
from Mrs. Besant to mules. The con
versation took many amusing turns,

It is very difficult to obtain an intelli
gent idea of anything going on in the
assembly at Salem. Senate bill No. 50,
which was iven to readers of The;
CiiBONici.E in full yesterday, may , be
considered one of the most important
measures now pending, but its fate rests
somewhat with the delegation from
Multnomah, as they are said to be di
vided in respect to the reduction.- . This
opposition is liable to cause amendm
ents to be made to the bill which may
xemp( counties of 15,000 or over in
population. There is but one sentiment
in the Inland Empire respecting this
matter, and that is that the fees of
sheriffs and clerks, when added to the
salaries now allowed, are altogether too
high, and taxpayers generally demand
tbe salary system, and that feet be
turned over, to the county.
House bill No. 208, introduced by Mr

From alt points comes reports of the
severity of the weather Wednesday.
The present cold snap is one of the
most severe within thf recollection of
tlje oracular oldest inhabitant, and for a
brief time the merry old King Boreas is
reigning in our land, playfully nipping
the ears and noses of all who have the
temerity to go before bis face and brave
his majestic presence.
But his sway in the fair valleys of
eastern Washington will prove hort
and all" will soon be gleefully watching
his retreat to the icy fastnesses of the
Arctic land. Already on the southwest
coast a mighty force is, gathering that
shall wrest from him his present pos
sessions, and that will restore.to us our
almost uninterrupted days of sunshine
balmy breezes that force is the
cjfinook wind. Jswiiuy anq sureiy it
ill advance to do the ice king battle.
d although, its weapons are warm,
gelitle air currents, laaen wiui me spicy
f jfigrance of tropical lands, yet it is ir-.
esistable and always prevails, and we
will soon be enjoying its balmy reign
and doing it honor. , .-
Business interests suffered little loss
from the cold snap, all who had work to
muffling up in the cheery and ener-
etic manner peculiar to Inland Empire
people. Those who had little or noth
ing to do remained indoors or crowded
offices and hotel corridors and spun-
arna about cold spells they had exper
ienced that discounted the present one
in everv wavi CIotl.inK and cloak men
njoyed a good business. The remarka
tly sudden change in the temperature
was the leading article of discussion:
Street thermometers are usually not
much more reliable in their records and
statements than curbstone politicians,
but they were consulted byja majority of
citizens on this occasion, and agreed for
once to the extent that it ?as cold
enough for them.
