The following letter received today needs no explanation : Portland, Or., March 6, 1894. Editor Chronicle, The Dalles, Or. : Dear Sir A great number of German families, who are dissatisfied with, their present situation in Manitoba, and the Northwest territories, desire to find a location in our 'state, and have asked me to assist them to that end. Believ ing that Wasco county is a desirable place, especially as far as climate and soil are concerned, and also believing that you, your city and the whole coun ty would profit considerably by the ex tensive immigration of sober and indus trious people, I would respectfully ask the favor to make this known through your paper, and ask those within your reach who have farms or farm lands for sale, to send to my address as below de scription, price and terms. Such offers only which I think are bargains will be considered. I am, sir, yours very re spectfully, JJr. A. Deitbich, 46, Union Blk, Portland, Or. Foster and the Fire. The numerous friends' of Ben Foster, the New York artist, will sincerely re gret to learn of this,' his second burn-out within a year. The first occurred last summer while be was at Buzzards Bay replenishing bis portfolio with marines. The loss at that time was almost the entire contents of his studio, though fortunately he had a pretty good insur ance. JWhen he returned to New York he fitted up a new studio in one of the fire-proof buildings on Fifty-ninth street, diagonally opposite Cornelius Vander- bilt's new residence. With the new sur roundings he seems to have put on a new activity. Competent judges say he has done some of his best work here While he was absent from the city the fire-proof building was gutted 'by fire and all Foster's effects were destroyed or ruined, among which were two pic tures he was -preparing for the spring exhibition, and which were more am bitious, and his artist friends say more successful than any he had hitherto at tempted. Not ' a dollar of insurance. He delayed taking out a policy because when he went into the . new studio he had very little and supposed the build' ing fire-proof, and so felt safe. Foster is a plucky fellow, and not withstanding this severe loss at a time when he is doing the best work of his life, there's lots of good things to come yet, . or we are' not a true judge or prophet. He has our deep sympathy, all the same.. A Congressional Aspirant. Hon. John C. Leasure, of Pendleton, arrived in the city this morning, and while shaking hands with numerous friends, made The Chronicle a fraternal call. Mr. Leasure is one of Eastern Ore gon's favorite sons, . and as one of his friends asserts, '.'is a self-made man who does not worship his creator." His business in Wasco county at this time is avowedly political, as he is prominently mentioned as a republican candidate for congress to succeed Ellis. He claims that Umatilla, Crook and Ba ker counties will support him solidly, and hopes that the remaining counties in the district will unite for him merely for the purpose of making the sentiment unanimous. He says, . however, that, if his nomination would endanger the sue cess of the republican party, he is will ing to step down and will support the next man, for he is desirous that the re publicans win a sweeping victory in June. As far as his county is concerned, he says, many democrats are changing their politics, and republicans who went out are coming back again. He consid ered that the populists were of small im portance numerically. He believes all the republican conventions will be har monious and that the state will go. sol idly republican. A Kail Carver.

It is a very interesting sight to see the new rails which have been received here for the re-construction of the roadbed between The Dalles and Portland being bent to lit the sharp curves' which are so numerous on this part of the railroad. These new rails are verv much heavier than the ones now in nse and would tear up the spikes which held them in place unless they were bent to conform with the curves before being put down One of the company's strongest freight engines, in charge of Engineer Nickell, has been engaged in this work at the depot since yesterday morning, and quite an exhibition of the power of the iron horse is given when it draws one of these rails through the device which bends them.

With regard to the utility of the crocodile there are diverse opinions. It is certainly., a scavenger, though, when the rapid currents of most rivers are taken-into consideration, the im portance of his mission dwindles. . The author of "In the Morambala Marsh says that along the banks of African streams it is dangerous to approach the river-edge. Water for domestic purposes is obtained from the top of the banks by means of a cup attached to a bamboo pole twenty or thirty feet m length, and in spite of these precavi tions the death-roll is a most ghastly one. ' The primitive dugouts used by the natives for traveling on the rivers are m many cases merely death-traps. While the man is paddling along, bare-. ly two inches above the surface-of the river, the crocodile seizes his hand and drags him to the bottom. On one occasion I sent down some letters by a Hindoo merchant, and a few weeks later heard that both letters and postman had been devoured by crocodiles. At another time 1 was strolling along the bank, and hearing cries, arrived at the water s edge m time to seize a young boy whose leg had been caught by one of these brutes and torn from him. He escaped with his life, thanks to my timely arrival, In some places one sees thousands of crocodiles on a mndbank, most of them scarcely two inches in length, evident ly just hatched- A week does not pass but in some river village waits and lam entations are heard for a fresh vic tim to the crocodile's insatiable appe tite.
