Address sll oommnnlcatlon to ' THE CHRON

FRIDAY,
JULY 12, 1895
METROPOLIS IN
OREGON.
EASTERN
Nothing would contribute ao much to
the prosperity f thia and adjoining
counties as the building up of a metrop
olis with a population of 10,000 to 20,000.
We already have excellent markets and
economical methods of reaching them
for products which bear shipping; but
we are now prepared to produce much
which, without a local market, is of little
profit. Everything points to The Dalles
as the place for such a city. The sur
rounding country stands by us well, and
we appreciate their treatment. We, on
our part, must stand by the producers
about us by attracting a population of
consumers. To do this we need a pay
xoll. We have all the essential condi
tions for a woolen factory. With this
there should be a first-class clothing
factory. These industries would sug
gest others, and the population would
come without urging.
With a climate and soil conducive to
pleesant living, there is no reason why
we should not be a city of 20,000 inhab
itants within the next ten years. But
the men who own the property and have
the means must lend a hand and pull
together ; otherwise little can be gained.
PROTECTIONISTS CONSISTENT.
The Dalles Chronicle, a protectionis
tic newspaper, says, "the opening of
every new market is a beneht to the
producer." This is true, but who would
suppose that this would be admitted by
a believer in protection which closes
markets to producers and puts barriers
in the way of producers entering them
Ihe world as a market meanB every
thing to producers and little, it any
thing, to manipulators, who prosper to
the extent that they are able to control
markets by protection and restriction.
.bast Oregoman.
Every one knows that protection is
necessarily selfish policy and in seeking
new markets for our productions we do
not imply an advocacy of opening the
markets of this country, on articles which
can be raised at home, to the cotnpeti
tion of the world. Protection is the
patriotic policy which seeks to build up
America rather than benefit other coun
tries at our expense.
OVR MUTTON MARKET.

Reports from the southern portio:
the state indicate that mutton is a drug
. on the market, the buyers offering only
$1.25 per head. Thousands of mutton
sheep have been sold here this spring
and summer at from $1.65 to $2 per
head. The reason for the difference is
obvious. The Dalles is a competing
point for all tke transcontinental roads

There is probably no city in the North -
west so favorably situated - as respects
both the producer and the markets, as
The Dalles, and for this we are indebted
to the men who organized and have
maintained a water transportation line.
There is no reason why this city
should not become the largest trading
point in the state outside of Portland.
All we need is concerted action on the
part of our business men upon ques
tiens of commercial importance. Th
most prominent of these is the trans
portalion question.
Register Moore and Receiver Biggs of
the land office have heard and decided a
large number of land contests. The
time for appealing in most of them has
not yet passed so it is not known
whether the dicisicns as rendered in all
the cases will be the final ones. Follow

decisions and the property in dispute:

Owing to an accident in the Stampede
tunnel ia the Cascade mountains,
through traffic on the Northern Pacific
is blocked. Their trains are being run
over the O. R. & N., and pass through
iThe Dalles. The east-bound passenger
left Portland this morning after 1
A'clock, and . passed through The Dalles
at 5. The west-bound passenger went
through town a flying at 8:30 this mern
iog. There were ten coaches, including
aj diner. Engineer Hayes was at the
throttle, and as the train can do no
tibcal business, it will make rapid time
o Portland. Toe damage to the tunnel
ill probably be very great, as the wood
work is on fire and a lot of rock will fill
portions of the tunnel. The Stampede
is on of the most famous pieces of rail
road engineering in the country.

Receiver McNeil is doing much to re
store the O. R. & N. Co.'s road to its
former good condition, and indeed to
wake it better than before Union Pacific
mismanagement. Reduction in rates
and permanent improvements are the
best indications of prosperity, and the
prosperity of transportation lines is the
best evidence of a prosperons country.
The Cornell boat crew received a true
English welcome. They were derided
upon every hand, and treated, not as
honorable competitors, but - as con-
lempuoie rivals. ine English may
beat the Yankees at the oar, but we
could teach them much in the way of
coertesy and common politeness. There
are some other sciences in which we
have heretofore taught them lessons.
The Iowa republicans have held their
state convention and adjourned. Ques
tions of finance caused no trouble', and
the party in that state stands squarely
upon the principles of the national plat
form. This is a safe position, and there
is every prospect that the ticket just
nominated will be elected by the time-
' We had an epidemic of disentery in
this vicinity last summer," says Samuel
. Pollock, of Briceland, Cal. "I was
aken with it and suffered severely until
oroe one called my attention to Cham-
erlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
emedy. I procured a bottle and felt
better after the first dose. Before one-
talf of the bottle had been used I was
( ell. I recommended it to my friends
and their experience was the same.
We all unite in saying it is the best."

Last night Lee Morehouse, a prisoner'
in the county jail, made an ineffectual
attempt to escape. It is Jailer Fitz
gerald's custom to go through the jail
every evening to assure himself that
everything is as it ought to be. More
house secreted himself in the cell near
est the door leading into the sheriff's
office and intended as soon as .the jailer
retired to make a break for liberty. Mr.
Fitzgerald, however, looked into that
cell first, and discovered Morehouse
with his shoes in hand ready to run-.
He was bent on going and it took some
thing more than moral persuasion on
the jailer's part to convince him he had
better stay. Morehouse is in jail wait
ing the grand jury on the charge of the
larceny of a horse and bridle.
We recommend De Witt's1 Colic and
Cholera Care because we believe it a
safe and reliable remedy. It's good
efiects are shown at once in cases of
Cholera Morbus and similar complaints.
