Residents of The Dalles do not need to
be urged to set out shade trees. The
custom in this city has been universal
ever since the founding of the city.
At the Portland republican convention
today there were represented some forty
clubs throughout the state. Thos.
Tongue was chosen temporary chairman.
A strike is daily expected along the
entire line of the Northern Pacific A
party who came up today from Portland
said it had already occurred, but in
quiry develops that it was only rumor.
Reports from Baker' City today are
that that city is visited' with a severe
snowstorm accompanied with high south
east wind, which is drifting the snow
badly. In reality they are favored with
a young blizzard.
Mr. William Glasius, janitor of The
Dalles public schools, is seeding a plot
of grass around the edge of the fence and
central walk of the brick school houee.
He is spading it up and it looks like he
has a big contract on his hands.
The funeral of Mrs. Caroline Bettingen
took place from the Catholic church as
announced, at 9 o'clock this morning,
and was largely attended. Father Gib-

were present, the former delivering an
eloquent eulogy upon the deceased.

The average 'force working at the
Union street cut is twelve men three
drillers, three maulers, three with wheel
barrows, one feeder, one loader and the
engineer. An average of 60 tons of
rock is crushed daily. The capacity is
100 tons daily, but time is lost in wheel
ing the wagons into place nnder the
crusher.
Street commissioner Maddron has con
siderable trouble with rotten sewers of
late, and has just finished excavating a
length of 56 feet on Court street between
Fourth ' and Fifth streets, Here the
sewer is about three feet deep and has
lasted nine years. Where the old wood
en sewer is under ground, 'ten or twelve
feet it is still sound, with no indication
of decay.
The probability is that the ice har
vest in this section will be a total failure
this season on account of the mild wea
ther. There has : been a suggestion
made that our ice men " would make
money by getting it from Baker county
while it is cheap and will not have to be
stored in an icehouse there. Certainly
a saving would be made by.gettvng it
now while there would be but little loea
in transit through melting.

Noticing a communication from "E
V. E." in your valuable paper of Janu
ary 31st, and believing . that the future
success of the sheepman (if there is any
such thing under a democratic adminis
tration) exists in curtailing expenses
knowing by experience that under the
present prices for wool and mutton and
the existing wages and expenses that
the sheep business will not pay, and
being convinced that in order to further
their ends the wool growers must unite,
I would suggest that a convention of
wool growers be held in Antelope or The
Dalles in the near future, and see if the
sheepmen have sufficient interest and
energy left to perfect a permanent or
ganization for their own benefit.
Yours for success, -

the petition of Edwin L. Rood and others
asking to have restored to settlement and

south, range ten (10) east, the same now
being embraced In the "Cascade Range
Forest Beserve," created by the presi
dent's proclamation ot September 28.
1893.' ' ' . "
The petition is based on the ground,
primarily, that the lands in question are
valuable for agriculture and not such as
are necessary to promote the. objects of
the reservation.
Action on this petition, with a view to
restoring said lands to settlement and
entry, will not be taken at this time, as
there are now pending before congress
eertain bills for the government and pro
tection of forest reservations, which will
have some bearing on the subject of this
petition. Very respectfully,

According to final figures, Oregon pro
duced 37,000 bales of hops in 1893 and
these, too, of the best hops grown in. the
world. They found the top of the mar
ket every where.
Settlers in Langell valley, Klamath
county, complain that Indians are kill
ing deer in large numbers at the bead of
the valley, hunting on horseback and
using dogs. One day recently, it is said,
they killed forty-eight deer in that
neighborhood. The deer come down to
the juniper hills in the. winter and are
an easy prey to the dogs and squads of
mountain hunters.
A record has been kept from August
16, 1893, to the end of the year, of all
the accidental shootings which have oc
curred in Oregon and Washington. The
record shows that within the nineteen
weeks twenty-four accidents from guns
have taken place. How many have
proved fatal is not known, but seven 'of
the unfortunates have died almost in
stantly after such" mishaps. It is wor
thy of note that fifteen out of the
twenty-four so-called accidents were
caused by intense excitement and great
carelessness in handling guns. Albany
