HEROISM IN SONG.
The feelings of every one who read of
the wrecked Colima are touched by the
Tecital of how Captain Taj lor died.
Standing near the bridge, he gave orders
for the lowering of the boats, and did
what could be done for the saving of as
many lives as possible; and then when
nettling more remained, be raised bis
band and gave three blasts of the whis
tle as a dying farewell to all that he
loved. As long as poetry and song re
main, such deeds will always be a favor
ite theme for minstrelsy.
The loss of the steamer, Arctic, away
lack in the fifties, when the signal gun,
ired by the hand of. a mere lad, sent its
boom across the weary waste of waters
till silenced in the ocean's deep em
brace, was studied in the readers by
sympathetic youth. And many tears
haye dimmed the pages of Whittier
which told of Conductor Bradley and
how he died. Bradley was a conductor
on an eastern road, and killed in a col
lision. The poet, Whittier, most beau
tifully tells the story of how, wnen the
first shock of the collision was over, and
bis mangled body was taken from the
wreck, those who bent over him heard
the words "Fat ont the signal for the
other train :"
"We bow as In the dust, with all our pride
Of virtne dwarfed the noble deed beside.
God give as grace to live as Biadley died."
It remains for some sweet singer in
veree on the Pacific coast to tell of the
Colima and her captain. Censurable as
be may be in some things, bis death was
heroic. Perhaps Oregon's own gift of
. genius, Sam Simpson, will tell the
story. -
AN UNGOVERNABLE GOVERNOR.
Governor Alt eld is fuming and stir
ring up anarchical sentiment, because
the supreme conrt of the United States
has decided that a court has the power
to pnnieh contempt of its orders. It is
useless to denounce the U. S. courts as
being the tools of corporations and ser
vants of millionaires ; they do not make
the laws, and are not responsible for
them, but it is their duty, as it is that
of a governor, to assist in enforcing
them. Men of Altgeld's stamp, who
openly espouse every influence tending
lo unsettle society and nullify the gov
ernment, ought also to be within the
Teach of the court's order ; they are far
more worthy of the punishment that
falls upon the men whom they mislead
and who have to suffer the consequences
of a violation of the law. The court
that punishes a violation of the law is
far more the friend of labor than the
demagogues who encourage a disregard
of the law.
"We regret that Altgeld is not the man
to go to prison instead of Eugene V,
Debbs. "
B00D RIVER VALLEY.
The people of Hood River are to be
congratulated upon the large yield and
certain returns of their strawberry crop
of 1895. Last year, because of want of
tiansportation facilities,, their labor,
time and money was a dead loss, but
this year their perseverance in improv
ing and enlarging their berry fields has
been rewarded. The success of this
portion of the county, both in. berry
raising and apple culture, is due to the
fact that the most approved methods
are ... studied and adopted with great
painstaking. Hood River, apples have
reputation more than state wide, and
many orchards on the Columbia, not in
Hood river valley, reap the benefit of
that reputation. .
There is no reason why other portions
. of the county should not succeed as well
if the same care is given to the business ;
but until we learn to keep our apple
tree from insects and properly cultivated
, and pruned, we will never produce ap
ples that are fit for anything but cider,
and not very good for that. ,
4 RIVER LINE TO FOSSIL.
The Fossil Journal expects during the
next year to see boats load atits wharves
and those of other towns east of the
mountains, and never break .cargo until
they land their freight at Portland or
Astoria. With such a waterway, and
such transportation facilities, the devel
opment of our state's resources would be
beyond limit. The prophecies of pessi
mists do not possess the ghost of a
chance of fulfillment. Portland Sun.
We knew Fossil had too much life for
its name, but we had not heard that it
had crawled to the Columbia river from
eighty miles away. Possibly the Sun is
off on Its geography. ?
Tno Dalles Daily Chronicl
The fish situation still continues any-
thing but bright to those whose money
is invested in wheels and nets. The re
ports all along the river indicate that
very few fish are being caught. In 1889,
which was the year in which the biggest
catch was made, the fish began coming
May 28th ; but last year, when there was
also an abundance of fish, but no wheels
to catch them, the run did not come till
much later, and the biggest catch was
during July. There is yet plenty of
time for the fishermen to reltnbu.Sj
themselves for the outlay they have
made and have a balance to their ctedit.
Many of our fruit men are discouraged
by the small returns from their orchards
and vineyards, and with some reason.
Bat we believe that increased produc
tion will better, rather than make
worse, their condition. The fact that
The Dalles is one of the largest wool
markets in the United States, has a
tendency to make the price here percep
tably higher than at other markets.
When our market becomes known as a
large fruit market, and foreign buyers
are attracted to it, we will no longer be
dependent upon local demand to fix the
price. '
The people of the Pacific coast are bet
ter satisfied than ever with the land that
is given them. The reports from the
sweltering East, and the cool breezes
that sway our trees and make the days
a delight, are strong enough in contrast
to bring out clearly the blessings that
are ours.
The people of Juniper Flat and the
country between Wamic and Wapinitia
will be glad to know that the contract
for renewing the work on the big irri
gating ditch has been re-let, and work
will begin at once. Ed Owens, a con
tractor of North Yakima, was in The
Dalles last week, and had with him the
contract for the work. He is to com
plete the Job of excavation in seventy-
six days from May 27th. This ditch
will be of inestimable benefit to the
dwellers in the southern portion of
Wasco county, and will make that part
which it will irrigate, a garden
spot. The land near Wamic- and
on Juniper Flat is naturally very fertile,
and the bringing in of water will make
it the choice farming land of Eastern
Oregon. . . .
The school directors 'held a meeting
yesterday afternoon in Dr. Doane'a
office. There were present O. Kinersly,
S. B. Adams and Dr. O. Doane, direct
ors and Ernest Jacobsen, clerk. There
was not much business to come before
the board and the session was not pro
longed. The directors ordered forty new
seats to accommodate the increasing
number of students. ' Mr. Glenn will
famish them. A motion was passed to
order sixty cords of wood and an offer of
bids will soon be advertised. As there
was no further business to come before
the meeting the board adjourned.
An exciting runaway occurred this
morning on Third street. A team be
longing to Mr. Sechlar was standing in
front of W." H. Young's blacksaaith shop
and becoming frightened started sud
denly and overturned the wagon. Tte
horses didn't wish to lose any time and
made a straight line for home, but the
odds against them were too many and
they ended upon the iron pile by the
new opera house. .. The heat was an ex
citing one but no great amount of dam
age 'was done.
Today has been prolific in runaways.
Early in. the day Mr. Sechlar's team
started on a tear and about 11 o'clock
the tine span belonging to The Dalles
Lumbering company came dashing down
the alley by The Chronicle office. On
Washington street the tugs broke and
the wagon, or what was left of it, daBhed
into the sidewalk by the Lumbering
Company's store. The team kept up its
wild career and was last seen going up
Fonrth street. One of the horses was
bleeding and seemed to be hurt.

Mr. J. S. Fish has received from T.
W. Lee; general passenger agent of the
O. R. & N. Co., a magnificent bear skin
handsomely mounted. The skin was
exchanged for the bear which Mr. Fish
used to have chained by the hotel. The
railroad company wanted a . bear for the
eating house at . Mechatn not to be
eaten, but for ornament and prevailed
upon Mr. Fisn to make the trade. He
now has a dead bear instead of a live
one.
The case of the state vs. Bertie Stewart,
charged with selling intoxicating liquors
without a license was thrown out of
court yesterday afternoon. The code
provides that the statute relating to this
offense shall not apply to towns over a
certain amount of population. The
matter was argued before the court and
and the decision made in favor of the de
fendant. This will probably end the
matter.
A big celebration for the Fourth of
July is being arranged to take place on
8-Mile at the grove near - Henry

nearly completed and those having it in
charge intend that it shall be a. success
worthy of the day.

of such an agent hence the great popularity
of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. . These are
made from the purest, most refined and
concentrated vegetable extracts, and from
forty -two to forty -four are contained in
each vial, which is sold at the same price
as the cheaper made and more ordinary
pills found in the market. In curative vir
tues, there is no comparison to be made be
tween them and the ordinary pills, as any
one may easily learn by sending for a free
sample, (four to seven doses) of the Pel
