To the Editor: A public park for
The Dalles is something all should con
cider and in thinking and talking of im
provements of various kinds, let us not
neglect to provide a breathing place for
the population occupying the homes in
our city. When this, our fair city, shall
have grown to 20,000 and all these streets
below the bluff will have become busi
ness blocks and warehouses, and that
part of the city now on the hill will have
been more compact, then the necessity
for a public park will be so apparent
that thousands of dollars will have to be
expended in providing for ' the wants of
the people. But why not now, when the
land is comparatively cheap, provide for
this time that will surely come? and in
providing for the generation to come,
faave the pleasure and enjoyment of the
outlay ourselves, and then the thanks of
the generations that shall come after us,
when we are gone.
"What a pleasant gathering place it
would be in times of. large conventions.
Here open air meetings of all kinds
might be held and the citizens gathered
in the park could be entertained by the
music. Fourth of July celebrations
ould here be given with safety, which
when all this land is covered with build
ings, will not be permitted in the streets
as now. Let The Dalles take warning
by Easter cities, who have failed to
provide for this need of the people, and
after years of privation have been com
pelled to purchase land at immense cost
to provide this necessity.
If others have thoughts and sugges
tions on this subject, let us have them

Scene In Bait Lake the Opening; Night
of the Circus.
. The Next Great Syndicate Shows and
Paris Hippodrome, which exhibits in
The Dalles, Saturday July , is beyond
doubt one of the very best as well as the
largest traveling.
jjfn referring to the show the Salt Lake
News has the following to say :
"The gigantic tent at Central Park
could not con t a hi balf the number who
sought admittance to the New Great
Syndicate Shows last night, and thou
sands were turned away. The streets
were packed with people. Not only
were ttie sidewalks crowded, but even
the roadway was almost impassable, and
the street-cars had difficulty in forcing a
paesage.
"It did not look like bard times to see
the struggling crowds scrambling for
the ticket office, and when the bell
finally rang np the entrance of the
equestrian tournament, there was tier
upon tier of spectators, with as many
more satisfied with standing-room. The
spectators were magnificently enter
tained from the beginning to the end of
the programme. Everyone wore
broad grin for two hours, and then went
-home still smiling.
Word From Hr. Sargent.
The editor received a personal letter
Jfrom his valued lriend, Mr. I. N. Sar
- gent, now traveling in the East, which
tells of the safe arrival of Mr. and Mrs
Sargent at their old hom& in Chester,
. Vt. An extract will not be chit at place
"We arrived here on the 14th, and as
the Bpjrit moves, I write. I can better
describe my feelings by quoting an old
Scotch ballad:
As I drew near ray ancient cot,
Wh-re mineral used to grow,
No friend was there with open arms;
Mo welcome face I saw.'
"How I could wish that time in its
flight might turn backward and make
me young again 'just for one day. In
the graveyard lie my father and brothers
knd numerous family relatives, and on
All sides are the graves of friends and
neighbors of fifty years ago.
"We leave tomorrow for Boston, where
-our ancestors used to reside, to visit
some of them, and the residences they
occupied in 1635 ; then start towards
Oregon, where we hope to live till the
final change comes."
Mr. Sargent may be sure of a hearty
welcome when again in The Dalles, for
he and his estimable wife are well be
loved in our midet.
The constitution that has been broken
down or weakened by long standing dis
- orders in the liver and kidneys,' is ill
fitted to withstand the encroachment of
disease. Such a person takes cold easily,
cannot stand fatigue, and in cases of epi
demics, is the first to fall a victim. The
proper course is to remove the cause of
weakness by treating the liver and kid
neys. Dr. J. II. McLean, s Liver and
Kidney Balm will reach the seat of
trouble and restore the diseased organs
to healthy functional activity. Increased
nourishment of the body will follow and
the patient will rapidly regain health
and strength. Price $1.00 per bottle.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Hall's Cure is the only posi
tive core known to the medical frater
nity. ' Catarrh being a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and 'muceus surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The

curative powers, that they offer One

fails to cure. Send for list of testimo

Richmokd, Va., Oct. , ISM.
Indiana BicyeU Co., Indianapolit, Ind. :
Gsntlzmsn The Waverley Scorcher and Belle came to hand
yesterday. We are afraid you haye sent ns the high-priced wheel
by mistake. You can't mean to tell us that this wheel retails for
( 85? We most say that it is, without exception, the prettiest wheel
we have ever seen, and, moreover, we have faith in it, although it
weighs only 22 lbs., for of all Waverleys we have sold this year and
last and yon know that is a right good numberl, we have never
had a single frame nor fork broken, either from accident or defect,
and that is more than we can say of any other wheel, however
high grade, so called, that we sell. We congratulate ourselves
every day that we are the Waverley agents.
