O. R. & X. SHARES SOLD.
. A committee representing certain col
lateral trnat bond-holders of the Oregon
Short Line & Utah Northern Bail war
Co., purchased on Tuesday at New York
138,272 shares ofO. B.& N. stock. If
this means what it appears to as to
mean, it is an unfortnnate deal for the
O. R. & N. Co. and for ifS patrons. The
road is just now working ont from un
der the hands of a receiver, under the
carefal and successful management of
Mr. McNeil. The condition which
forced the receivership was due to the
management of the road by the Union
Pacific, and the experience of the road
while in the hands of the Union Pacific
was certainly a disastrous one, as is
usually the case where a road is man
aged by men at a great distance, and
who are more interested in a " distant
road than the one in question.
The Short Line system runs through
an : unproductive country, and if it eon
trols the O. R. & N. stock, the latter
road will be so operated as to make the
Short lane a profitable property, and
not bo as to make the O. R. & N. either
profitable or popular. It seems to ns
that this is the aim of the purchasers of
this block of stock. As an independent
road, carrying the traffic of the North
ern Pacific, the Great Northern and the
Short Line, besides its local traffic, the
O. R. & N. is a paying road, and under
the present management a popular one
"We should regret to see any change. '
.To any one who has watched the evi
dence in ihe'Berger case, the action of
Judge Bellinger in directing a verdict of
acquittal, will canse no surprise. The
testimony against the defendant seemed
verv weak : too trivial, in fact, for ever
allowing the case to be commenced.
The matter now becomes more mysteri
ous than ever, but it would be a wise
thing on the part of the government
officials not . to proceed to blacken any
person's' character unless the proof be
stronger than it was against Miss Ber
ger. '

THE NEW ASIATIC LINE.
Not being a seaport, we do not fully
appreciate the great importance of the
establishing of a line of steamships di
rectly to the Orient. Bat if we mistake
not, this is a very important factor fn
the development of the commerce of all
Oregon ; it is the opening of a market
for our products which will have a great
influence upon prices of fruit and cere
als. The trade with China in flour is
Already quite considerable. There is no
reason why the flouring mills of this
city, which already, have a large trade
cannot enter this foreign market. No
better flour is produced anywhere in the
world, and the capacity of the mills is
sufficient to furnish a considerable quan
tity of flour for export. The develop
meat of the trade of oar mills is a bene
fit to every wheat-raiser, and none real
ize this more than the producer, who
can always ' get from one to two cents
more at the mill than at the warehouses
for his wheat.
HELLO I
Few cities of the population of The
Dalles have so efficient telephone ser
vice. The long distance phones place
us in immediate connection with all
cities of the Northwest, and they in
elude all of importance in the North
west, and the same company furnishes
an excellent local service. The Seafert
A Condon service is equal to any in the
larger cities, being both a night and day
service.
Now we need a line south into Crook
and Grant counties. Such a line could
be built to touch, by a single wire,
Dufur, Boyd, Nansene, Sherar's Bridge,
Bake Oven, Antelope and Prineville
This is a fine opening for one or the
other companies to show their enter
prise, and thereby greatly increase their
local service.
The citizens of Goldendale are earn
estly pushing the matter of a railroad
flown ine valley ot the Klickitat, touch
ing the Columbia river at Lyle. The
route is said, by those who have been
over it, to be perfectlv feasible, and t
survey has demonstrated that the road
can be . built at a reasonable cost
"Whether or not the enterprise will prove
ayin one financially, does not now
enter into the discussion. If the road i
bnilt and operated a large amount of tb
wheat that now comes to The Pall
will be shipped to Lyle, and the tra
'. from a rich section curtailed. The' on
way to meet the problem is to so i
prove the roads from The Dalles to
Klickitat Valley ' that farmers can haul
their grain cheaper than they can s
it any other way. The place to sgit
such a matter would be in a board
trade or commercial club such as oth
cities, with not half the tosioess
portance of The Dalles, possess.

The latest advices received this morn
ing from the Denver and eastern mar
kets give ! encouraging signs for the
fruit-growers. The demand and prices
keep up, and a shortage in some ship
ping localities means well for this sec
tion, where, there is an abundance.
These are the latest advices receivei :
At Denver, cherries, $1.25; preference
for Black Republicans; currants, (2 to
.26. Salt Lake, cherries $1; home
grown berries $1.25. , Few Grande Ronde
strawberries $2.' Spokane, cherries 75
cents ; peaches and apricots sold for 75
to 90 cents. Omaha, cherries 90 cents
to $1. Leayen worth, cherries $1.25;
Black Republican cherries are in greater
demand than the . Royal Anne. : Too
touch pains cannot be taken in packing,
particularly ia filling the box well after
facing.
Blackberries will sell well in some
markets East this year that on account
of late frosts have no home-grown sup
ply. Prices ottered . now ot fd.&O per
crate will net the grower for blackber
ries 80 cents per pound.
A car of cherries, besides the ship
ment of the Oregon Fruit Union, left
Portland last night for Chicago; also
one from Walla Walla. It is of course
satisfactory to us to be able to
net the highest prices for good fruit so
lar, and the fruit-grower this year
should surely feel encouraged over the
outlook.
The make up of the hse team from
Jackson Engine company has been an
nounced and will probably consist of the
following sprinters: Geo. Lie.be, jr., N.

Browne, Al. Klindt, Kneble, W. Hunter
and G. Bartell. RogerSinnottis captain
f the team. The Mt. Hood company,
composed of residents on the hill, hare
gathered together a good set of runners
and propose to contest viuorouslv for
first places. The men who will prob
ably run under the Mt. Hood banner are
J. McNeil, J. Harper, Will Norman,
Joseph Wodika, Will Nichols,' Frank
Chrisman, D. 8. Dufur, F. Menefee and
Mr. Spivey. The Dalles is going to see
a good race on the Fourth and there will
be plenty of material from which to
choose a good team to represent this city
at the Vancouver tournament.

Mr. James Kennedy of Wamic called
at The Chronicle ofnen today and
wished, on behalf of the Wamic baseball
nine to accept the challenge of ' the
Hood River club to play at The Dallef
on the F Mirth of Julv. The Wamic
boys mean business, and are very de
sirous of meeting the club from the land
of the strawberries. Mr. Kennedy say
their tla1) is in good practice, and they
are confident of giving the Hood Rivr
nine a warm contest. The game will Le
a great attraction for the celebration.
and it is to 1 e hoped that the affair can
be satisfactorily arranged. If the mana
ger of the Hood River nine wishes to
consider the challenge accepted, Mr.
Kennedy would be glad to hear from
him through the columns of The
Chkonicxi, or otherwise.
The program for the Turners concert
Sunday nigi.t con alns nianv excellent
features. The Orchestra Onion will
play two overtnres, and there will also
be a chorus entitled "Der Rliein" bv
the Portland Turners and The Dalles
Harmonie Society. Th Portland Tur
ners will give " several fwlpctione. Mr.
Jos. Stebinger, an artist with the violin,
will play a solo, "Die Legeude,": upon
that tieantiful instrument. The sinking
will all be in German, hot music soundo
as sweet in one language as mioiher, and
those who cannot understand German
need not stay away on that account.
The Turners from Port! tiid hnve much,
native talent, and have been well
trained under the able leadership of Mr.
Eugene Stebineer.
The grasshoppers are reported to be
botherinir considerably this year in dif
ferent localities. A gentleman whoee
place is about ten miles from town on
the Sherman county road, says they
have don- damaue to hia orchard, but
on far have injured the grain hut little.
The pests take a special delight in at-i
racking the tender shoots of fruit trees,
and soon have them stripped. The
grasshopper 'is a periodical pest and
comes and goe9 of its own sweet will.
This eection has not been bothered with
them for a long time till the present
season.
A high cumptiment was paid The
Dalles by the receipt of a telegram from
Denver asking Mr. Pinkham. of the
fruit company, to send two boxes of
cherries, part Royal Aanes and par
Black Republicans, for samples of Wasco
fruit. They will be forwarded to Bos
ton for exhibition. Out of all the fruit-
producing countries of the West, The
Dalles and Wasco county have. been se
lected to furnish the best samples of
cherries. Our fame for fruit is rapidly
spreading.
