measure to present to theru at the close

fishermen say tbe fish are fully a month'
earlier than usual. . . '
Either tomorrow evening or Saturday
it is intended that the Orchestra Union
will play with tbe Senter Payton
orchestra. As they are both fine bands
tbe music alone would be well worth
the price of admission. - Tbe music
furnished is first class and with our own
orchestra would be well worth going to
hear.
Senter Payton is. certainly immense.
As the lightning rod agent last night, he
scored another victory and, sent' "the
audience home delighted with the even
ing's entertainment. The support last
night was exceptionally, good. If you
don't see this troupe you will miss a
whole lot offlfun. - The play tonight is
Joshua Whitcomb," an old farmer
who comes to town to sell his "punkins"
and whose eccentricities will furnish
laugh enough to supply as many persons
as the hall will hold. Misses Lucy and
Vina Payton will appear in their attrac
tive specialties. The prices of admission
are right with the times, being 35 cents
for general admiosion. reserved seats oO
cents, children 25 cents.
Forbidden to Pasture It.
The Currant Creek Road.
Srme time since The Chronicle pub-
list ed a statement that there was noth
ing in the law under which thn Cascade
reservation was created that prevented
the pasturing of stock on the reserva
tion. The matter has again come up
under the ruling of the commissioner.
who takes a different view of tbe mat
ter. Recently application was made to
Hon. W. R. Ellis for information on the
subject, and he forwarded this letter to
the commissioner, getting the following
in reply :
Washington, D. C, Mar. 1, 1895.
Hon. W. H. Ellis, House of Representa
tives, Washington, JJ. V.:
Sib: I am in receipt, by reference
from the department, of your letter of
the 25ih ultimo, inquiring whether the
regulations of the department will per
mit the pasturing of sheep in the Cas
cade range forest reserve in Oregon.
In reply I have to advise you that the
herding of sheep is prohibited, it being
considered that they are especially in
jurious to the herbage and undergrowth.
I enclose a copy of the forest reserve
poster of April 14, 1894, prescribing reg
ulations for the reservations. "
Very Respectfully, - a
Edw. A. Bowers, Asst. Com.
It will be seen from this that jf the
ruling of the commissioner is to stand,
tbe sheep industry of Eastern Oregon
will get a blacker eye than the re
moval of the tariff gave it. , There is a
provision in the law that the secretaay
of the interior may prescribe such regu
lations as may be necessary for tbe care
and preservation of government reser
vations. We feel certain that could the
nature and character of the mountains
be shown to the secretary, be would
withdraw the prohibition and allow
sheep to be pastured thereon.
' We would suggest that every c immun
ity get up a petition to the secretary
showing the character of the reservation,
and that cattle and sheep do not injure
it. If this is properly done, we believe
it would be successful.
An attempt was made yesterday to get
Commissioner Blowers up from Hood
River, for the purpose of holding a
special meeting of the commissioners'
court, but owing to matters over which
he had no control he could not come.
The. object was to consider the matter
of granting aid to the Currant creek
road. Some time ago, the sum of about
$1400 was raised by subscription in The
Dalles and Antelope,' for the purpose of
making this road, and at the time it was
thought the sum would complete it.
Since work was begun' on it, it lias been
found that there is a great deal more
rock work than was 'anticipated,' and
consequently the expense is largely in
creased.
The money raised has all been ex
pended and now the county will be
asked to contribute towards tbe comple
tion of the work. . That section of the
county pay s large sums in taxes, and has
never had much of anything in the shape
of local improvements. It has never
asked for them until now, and its re
quests should be granted. It would .be
of immense benefit to that section and
certainly to the citizens of The Dalles.
The completion of the road wou'd send
all tbe traffic from Mitchell, Waldron
and the Upper John Day to The Dalles,
and would tend to keep that section in
this county. Unless they can have
better roads to the county seat, they
will be compelled to cut loose from
Wasco and organize a county of their
own, and no one could blame them for
doing so.
We understand a special meeting of
the commissioners' court will be held in
a day . or so to consider the matter, and
while in common with all other tax
payers we do not like to see the county
money expended, yet there are things
that are absolute necessaries and the
Currant creek road is one of them. Self
interest as well as justice to those people
who are cut off from the county seat by
impassable barriers demands it. As. it
$1400 of good money has been expended
and unless tbe road is completed, is lost
utterly. Good business management
would compel the completion of the road
to save the money already invested
We hope the commissioners will take
this view of the matter, and push the
road to a speedy completion.
