The wheat market has taken a sudden

respondent to the Oregonian says the

yard dash was won by Tampa, with

ite in the pools. '

to this city, and any day the announce
ment mav be made that The Dalles has
been settled upon as the place for start
ing some new enterprise; The cheap
rates to and from the seaboard give The
Dalles a great advantage over interior
cities.
The Cascade locks are the great object
of interest to the people of The Dalles.

Tbe County's finances.
The clerk, sheriff and treasurer - of
Wasco county hav filed their semi-annual
statements, which show the condi
tion of the county's finances on Septem
ber 30th. The total liability of the
county is $87,964.28, consisting of war
rants drawn on the county treasurer,
outstanding and unpaid, $77,964.28, and
estimated interest $10,000. As compared
with the statement published last
March, a decrease of $26,649.56 in the
county's outstanding indebtedness is
shown. The total resources now appli
cable to the payment of county warrants
are $23,991.76. Last March they were
$63,236.82. There is now a cash balance
in the treasurer's hands of $3,391.76; esti
mated delinquent taxes applicable to
the payment of county warrants for
1804; $12,000. Estimated amount of
real estate bid in by the county at tax
sales on rolls of '90, '91, '92, '93, $8,000.
Estimated amount due from the state
for care of non-resident paupers, $600.
The value of the county courthouse and
grounds is estimated at' $30,000. The
salaries ot county officials since April
1st amount to $7,932.81. April was the
best month for the collection ot taxes,
$50,476.12 being received by the sheriff.
To get Wasco county out oi debt at
the earliest practicable mement should
be the aim of every person elected to
office. A good beginning has been made,
and from now on every year should see
Wasco county making good progress in
reducing the outstanding claims.
Pendleton is being much talked about
throughout the state because of the
woolen mill, the construction of which is
now assured. To the extent of a scour
ing mill, which has had a successful
season, and the projected woolen mill,
Pendleton is anead of The Dalles. A
little outside capital invested here will
regain the lost ground and with the
natural advantages which we undoubt
edly possess, place us first in the race.
The money put in the D. P. & A. N. Co.
proved the best investment this com
munity ever made and history of the
boat line should be a stimulus to a
further reaching out to help ourselve3.
The Dalles should have had .the woolen
mill that Pendleton is to receive. A
pay roll makes a lively town. The es
tablishment of a few factories which
would give employment to labor would
make The Dalles the second city in the
state. Salem has a woolen mill and
other factories, which have played the
great part in that city's growth. We
hone before another year is past to see
this city boast of some enterprises with
pay rolls.
