GREATOAIN OF AN OPEN RIVER.
The importance of an open river can
not be overestimated. When we con
template the benefit an independent line
of steamers between The Dalles andjj
Portland has been to this community
and its far-reaching effects, we- become
more enthusiastic for an open riv6r than
ever. If, as is the case, the boat line m
now able to effect and reduce rates as
far east as La Grande or Elgin, in face
of the difficulties of re handling at the
state portage, or the cost of transfer,
bow much more will it effect them when
they can run through without transfer;
and thi, we are assured, will be done
by next January. ? T. " ' .'
Hot alone has the freight rate been" re
duced, but passenger rates have also
been lowered to meet boat competition.
The O. R. & N. have put into effect a
rate of $3.50 for the round trip between
Portland and The Dalles, go-d for ten
days, and $2.80 for' a one-day limit'..
This could be of considerable advantage
to Eta tern Oregon business ' men who
make flying tiips to Portland. They
should buy round trip tickets to The
Dalles, and then get off and get a round
trip ticket between The Dalles and Port
land, and thus save nearly $3 on a ten
day ticket, or $4 on a one-day ticket.
The merchants of Eastern Oregon
should never cease in their efforts to
" secure an open river. The outlook now
is brighter than ever before.
FREE SILVER AND DEMOCRACY.
The democrats of' Illinois and Ohio,
two of the politically important states
of the North, have swung themselves
clear of (he last party platform and de
clared for free coinage. ' Both convex
tione endorsed Altgeld, as. a matter of
course. We say "as a matter of course,
for sympathy . with socialism and insta
bility of government is always accom
panied by advocacy of uncertain. and ex
perimental financial schemes. The
time is rapidly coming when democrats
who sincerely believe in the stability of
our currency will be driven entirely out
of their party
In so far as the republican party has
spoken, it has declared in favor of a cur
rency composed of gold and silver so
regulated as that twenty silver dollars
will everywhere ! purchase a double
eagle. Any other policy' or plan is un
safe, and will be rejected by the people
of the United States; and any ezperi
nent which will not certainly leave our
medium of exchange in that relation, is
extremely dangerous to our commercial
interests, as well as 'to our producing
industries.
THE
RESERVATION
PASTURED.
MAY BE
Thk Chronicle yesterday announced
that 'Senator Mitchell had called unon
the secretary of the interior relative to
the order excluding sheep from the Cas
cade reservation, with the result that
the order was rescinded. The matter
v was called to the attention of Senator
Mitchell at once upon the promulgation
of the order by the former editor of The
Chronicle, and since then no effort has
been spared on our part to have the de-
pariment to rescind what seemed to us
an unwise and wholly unnecessary and
nnjust order.
we extend to Senator Mitchell the
thanks of Eastern Oregon for his co-op
eration and successful efforts in this
matter. If the republicans! of Oregon
are not all of one mind with the senator
upon the financial question, they all
arue that when his attention is called
to any need of the state of Oregon, the
neaas of departments at Washington
do not grow much older without hear
ing of it, and they get little rest until a
desired decision is rendered. The sheep
. raisers oi uregon are under renewed ob
ligations to Senator Mitchell.
WAS NOT MEANT SERIOUSLY.
It is the Ferionely-expresaed opinion
of The Dalles Chronicle tnat what this
country stands most in need of just now
ie a Chinese wall. "What is the use,"
argues the Chronicle, "of allowing Eng
land to dictate the price of wheat, wool
and cotton ; Germany the price of pork,
auo r.ance the price of wines? Whv
let Europe longer interfere with us?
China was quite independent of the
rest ot the world for ages, and there is
no reason why we can't be. It might
toov Euuietning 10 Dmid a wail, but the
iiiuosiriai army want employment, and
we dave lots of silver in the vaults at
Washington, which is very much de
sired bv thousands of people throughout
vnc iauu. n e can pay lor the. work in
silver; this will give the land free silver,
and we will be done with these arrogant
nations of Enropei which are now trying
to ran our affairs. Let's have a Chinese
wall." To fully establish the wisdom of
its suggestion it only remained for the
Chronicle to point with pride to China's
condition today. Evening Telegram.
The Evening Telegram is indeed bril
liant. : Hereafter when Th Chboniclb
attempts' anything in the facetious line
we shall send a marked cqpy to the Tel
egram, and label every such matter "A
joke." We shall then hope to escape
being represented as blank idiots.
THIS IS TRUE.
'. Freight charges on sugar frem Port
land to The Dalles has been reduced to
ten cents per "hundred. At this rate it
would pay our merchants to have their
sugar shipped to The Dalles and haul it
overland. Wasco News.
And; it is also true that it wonld pay
the Wasco merchants to buy their suar
here. The Dalles merchants buy and
ship in large quantities, and they can
therelore give better figures than Port
land, with freight added.
The republicans of Kentucky in their
convention on the 5th, declare: "We
are opposed to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, believing it will in
volve the country in financial ruin. We
believe in sound currency, and in the
use of both gold and silver for coinage,
provided always that a dollar in one is
made precisely as valuable as a dollar in
the other." This, we believe, will be
about as the next republican national
platform will ' read. There are several
things in the Kentucky platform which
sound like republicanism. ' " " "
The Valley Transcript, which is pub
lished at Dallas, closed its third year of
life yesterday, and with it stopped pub
lication. The editor, Mr. A. R. Snyder.
who at one trine was connected with the
Times-f ountaineer, says that this step
is taken Decause Mcaiinnviile oners
more inducement to a newspaper than
Dallas. Mr. Snyder is an able writer,
and the people of Dallas should be loath
to sae him go.
Salvation Araajr Concert.
A concert was given Wednesday night
at the Salvation Army barracks, on
Front street, which made an interesting
evening, lne seating capacity of the
hall was completely over-filled and
people stood up- all over the room
Much preparations bad been made by
the members of the army and the inter
est shown by the audience rewarded
them for the somewhat irksome task of
drilling little children. Upon the stage
were seated the officers and ..members
and the performers of the evening. ; The
barracks is always decorated with flags
and becoming mottoes. ' The program
alternated with recitations and songs
mostly by little children. The audience
heartily appreciated the efforts of the
young ones and evens- effort received
generous applause. The program we are
compelled to omit, owing to lack of
room. ' The Salvation Army is doing
itood work wherever they are and the
officers in charge are polite, sincere and
earnest in the discharge of their duties.
Last evening about 8 o'clock an in
teresting event occurred on the rocks
just back of the railroad shops. It
seems that two youthful braves love the
tender glances of the same sweet maiden
and naturally there is a clash of inter
ests. W.ords could not reconcile the
differences so blows were found neces
sary. But this was no impromptu
affair. Everything was carefully planned
according to pugilistic rules, with this
exception that it did not end in each one
simply saying what he could do and
then not doing it. A ring was formed
and time keepers and referee appointed.
It took about ten minutes to give each
contestent enough and the fight was de
clared a draw. Some other means will
have to be fonnd to decide which one
will desist from paying the young lady
attentions. " u
The water at the Locks has fallen suf
ficiently now to enable preparations to
be made for starting the pumps. The
bulkhead is now out of the wet and the
water about even with the top of the
gate. The pumps will probably start to
morrow and Mr. Day estimates about
six days as the time required to empty
the canal. As soon as the water is gone
a force of over 300 men will be put to
work and the work kept steadily in
progress. The upper gate will be placed
in position and work above the bulk
head c'ontinoed. 'Nothing in the way of
damage, except an inconvenience, has
resulted from this season's high water.
