Early this morning many citizens

in many places the walking is made good.
There Btill remains a good deal of snow
to be cleared away from the walks.
Among the passengers on the delayed
west-bound train this morning was
Archbishop Gross, of the Catholic
church. He was one of the guests in
Receiver McNeil's privato car. Daring
bis stay here he made a short visit with
Rev. A. Bronsgeest.
The hotels, by reason of the delayed
passengers congregating in them, looked
today like the old days when the steam
boats carried all the travelers that went
east from Portland. In those times
everyone who passed through The Dalles
bad generally to spend a night in the
rfty.
I At the recent election held by the
stockholders of the Arlington National
Bank, Hon. D. M. French was chosen

soon as elected. Such a kindness will
be appreciated.
Tte receiver's car, 01, was attached to
No. 1 this morning and suffered a few
hours' delay in The Dalles. In the car
were Receiver E. McNeil, Freight Agent
B. Campbell and Chief Engineer W. H.
Kennedy. The car met Mr. McNeil at
Huntington as be was returning from
the East. Mr. McNeil is doubtless so
elated over the success of bis re-organization
plans that he will not mind the
cold reception be is getting on his-ce-
turn to Oregon.
Thomas Gilmore, well known in this
c'.ty and in Klickitat county, where for
many years be has resided, died this
morning. Word was brought to town
that the funeral will occur tomorrow.
Mr. Gilmore was a son of the late S.
Gilmore, one of the early pioneers of

and during the past fall his health grew
steadily worse. He leaves a widow and
several children to mourn their loss
Sheriff Kilbourne of Baker county
was among the belated passengers in
The Dalles today. He was en route to
Salem, having in charge an unfortunate
for the insane asylum. Sheriff Kil
bourne said Baker City had enjoyed a
prosperous year, and expects to be
treated better during 1896. The adja
cent mines have yielded rich treasures,
and .the stringency of money has not
been noticed there so much as in other
places. A good deal of eastern capital
has lately been invested in Baker
county mines, and the activity in this
direction is expected to be very grea t.

esterday's storm caused the railroad
mpany a good deal of trouble. The
oad is covered with drifts in many
ces, and west of Bonneville is in such
condition that traffic is impossible.
The local train which left here yester
day afternoon at 1 :10 did not arrive at
Bonneville till, 10 o'clock this morning,
and the passengers will probably not
reach Portland till late this afternoon.
The west-bound passenger arrived in
The Dalles on time, but did not leave
here till 11. One cause of the delay was
the engine getting off the track as the
train started across Mill creek bridge.
Previous to its going, two engines went
down the road to render assistance to
imprisoned trains.
The rotary snow-plow left Portland
'ast evening ahead of No. 2, the regular
passenger train, but was unable to get
any farther than Oneonta, where the
snow was packed solid.
Local officials informed The Chroni
cle this afternoon that a steamboat left
Portland this morning, which, after
picking up the passengers on the train
that started last night, will proceed to
Bonneville, where a transfer will be
Vnade. Unless the transfer is delayed,
fche train from Bonneville should reach
The Dalles between 5 and 6 o'clock this
evening. East of The Dalles everything
ja reported clear, though there is deep
enow everywhere. Between here and
Cascades no trouble is expected unless
siiaes occur.
The weather is much moderated this
afternoon, and with the promise of
warmer conditions tomorrow, it looks
like we may have only a spurt of winter
and not a siege. -

Delegates Chosen.
BLtRNI
Despite the storm, which made walk
ing, if not impossible, at least very dis
agreeable, the council chambers con
tained a large number of Republicans
last night, who met as members of the
McKinley Club to choose delegates to
the state convention of clubs to be held
in Portland February 4th. Mayor
Frank Menefee, the president of the
club, called the meeting to order, and
the call for the convention was then
read by the secretary, II. H. Riddell.
As the members came together to
choose delegates, it was decided to pro
ceed to that action at once. Mr. J. M:
Patterson moved that in balloting each
member voting should write the names
of five persons on bis ballot, and the
five receiving the greatest number of the
votes cast should be declared elected
delegates. The motion was passed.
Messrs. W. H. Wilson and Charles
Hilton were appointed tellers, and when
the votes were counted it was found
that the following had been chosen dele
gates : B. F. Laughlin, W. H. Wilson,
J. M. Patterson, John Michcll and Fred
W. Wilson.
The question of electing officers for the
ensuing year was brought up, but the
club decided that such action had better
be postp.ned until a meeting called for
that purpose. It was then determined
that the next meeting of the club should
be held February 8th, at which time
officers should be elected and plans for
the campaign considered.
