THE TRANSPORTATION ON
UPPER COL UXBIA .
THE
The press- of Paget sound have eug
Bested that the recent meeting between
Paul Mobr and hia associates with W
D. Tyler, manager of tne Hunt system,
may mean a transportation line down
the Columbia paralleling the O. R. & N,
road. The friends of Paul Mohr here
predict that the portage from Celilo to
North Dalles will be completed as soon
aa the canal and locks at the Cascades
are opened to navigation and that
steamers will then be placed on the
tipper river by that company. If there
ia anything in the suggestion that the
Columbia Navigation Company, genei
Ully known as the Mohr Company, and
the Hunt system have formed an alliance
it will mean much to the producers of
the upper Columbia, as well as to the O
R. & N. Co.
The D. P. A. N. Co. have revolution
ixed the transportation business between
this city and Portland, with the aid of
the state portage railroad. It will cost
little more to portage thirteen miles
that it does the half mile at the Cas
cades, the handling of freight being no
more. Opponents of the state portage
scheme predicted that it would be of no
use because the breaking of bulk twice
would make it expensive and impractic
able to ship freight over the road. The
experiment was tried and its success has
been far greater than its most enthu
mastic supporters predicted. Both pas
senger and freight rates have been de
creased almost 100 per cent. There is
no reason why the same result cannot be
attained for all the country tributary to
the Columbia above Celilo. provided the
same careful management is exercised
as in the case of the D. P. & A. N. Co,
It is safe to say that there never has
been on the Columbia a more popular
line than this one and its great success
is due to the fact that its managers have
had in mind the welfare of its patrons
even more than its own financial success
With the Hunt system, a popular and
well managed line of boats on the upper
river, and the Paul Mohr portage road
working together, the whole upper
country will become independent of the
railroads and a new era for the producers
of the Inland Empire will be inaugurated.
larger the supply, the better will be the
facilities for marketing.
There are several sections of sidewalk
which need condemning badly ; the city
has little use for a damage suit just now,
and it will be much easier to fight a de
linquent property owner in a forum of
our own choosing than a lawsuit for
damaees bv some one maimed for life
before the circuit court.
The Indian outbreak is of some utility ;
like a false fire alarm it gets oat the
machinery and men held and hired to
protect us and gives a drill with which
no dress parade can compare. There is
no prospect of a labor riot this summer,
hence the Indian scare comes handy.

If those gamblers in Chicago can keep
up the game at the present pitch "for
about three months longer, Oregon will
be in at the finish and make a killing.

THE ISDIAN OUTBREAK.
The wicked flee where no man pur
sueth ; and thus it proves with the
latest Indian "outbreak." The alleged
massacre proves to be almost without
foundation. The community had re
peated one of those wrongs which con
stitute the great blot upon the civiliza
tion of this country, and when the In
dians left their reservations the com
munity fled and spread far and wide the
alarm of another Indian outbreak... J
Indian character ia anything but ad
mirable, and possibly any attempt to
make law abiding and useful citizens of
them is as hopeless as to make a shep
herd dog of a coyote ; nevertheless were
their characters entirely different the
treatment they have received at the
hands of Indian agents and settlers
would have driven them away from in
stead of winning them to the civilization
of the white man. Every one familiar
with the Indian policy of the govern
ment, if our treatment of them can be
called a policy, knows that there is more
truth than fiction in Helen Hunt Jack
son's touching and beautiful story,
Ramona; the picture as drawn by Miss
Jackson, is, no doubt, highly colored,
.but it is nevertheless essentially true.
And we have no doubt the present
trouble, if there is any serious trouble,
is due to the blundering of our officious
ness or stupid injustice on the part
of some fool justice of the peace or
constable.
floored in the creek back of the Cos
mopolitan lies- a flat bottomed, scow
built boat, which has had a rather event
ful journey. It was built last April by
W. L. Le Compt, with three compan
ions and has come the entire distance
from Lewiston to The Dalles down the
treacherous currents and through the
rapids of the Snake and Columbia rivers
Four men made the journey without
mishap. They reached the messhouse
May 2d and there the boat remained till
last Saturday, when it was brought
through the rapids known as the dalles
The men say they went over the falls at
Tumwater and at the dalles without any
touch of fear and the boat passed by
rocks and whirls without striking any
obstacle. The trip was exciting the en
tire distance. The party stopped at
Riparia, Pasco, Umatilla and Arlington

WASCO'S FRUIT.
The fruit industry about The Dalles is
showing itself; a carload of peach plums
a day is a large amount of one variety of
frnit; but the supply is not exhausted ;
no finer plums are produced on the face
of the earth, and Wasco county could
produce enough to supply tbe world.
Peaches are now ripening and the crop
is a very large one. Apricots, pears,
prunes and apples will soon be ready
and will supply the large stream of fruit
already etarted toward the eastern
states. Our melon fields will, in a few
days. Bend car load lots both east and
west.
Skill, care and industry will yet make
our fruit lands of great value. The
