lire city streets were given ove:
ir-rur,
sleghing last night. The snow had
eked so that the runners glided easily
ver the frozen surface, while the tem
perature was just Kt the point where it
was both comfortable and exhilerating
to be in the open air. A half-dozen or
more four-horse sleighs, filled with jolly
young people, paraded the streets, while
host of cutters sped along after them
mong tne sleighing parties was one
composed of members of the Epworth
League of the Methodist church.
The members of the Republican state
central committee will meet at Portland,
Wodnesday, February 5th, at 10 a. m.
At that time the time and place of hold
ing the state convention will be de
termined. What is the matter with The
Dalles being the proper place for holding
the state convention? Portland -has
been well treated by the committee for
many years and it would be a graceful
act to give to the metropolis of Eastern
Oregon the honor of being the conven
tion city. Every candidate and dele
gate would be treated fairly and hos
pitably.

large potted plants being in the center,
while cut flowers added to the beauty of
the scene. After supper the members

morists, and they were at their best

People who were waiting .for the local
to pull out this afternoon saw what
came .nearly proving a fatal accident.
One of the Sandoz brothers, who lives up
Mill creek, had tied his team in front of
the Columbia hotel. The horses fright
ened at the approach of the train, and
plunging forward, got upon the eide
walk. Mr. Sandoz grabbed one of them
,by the bridle, but being unable to con-
fi
ft
rol the frantic animals, slipped and fell
etween them. Several bystanders
rushed to his rescue and extricated him
from his perilous position, not, however,
before he was eetionslv' iniured. One
of the horses had tramped upon his
preaat, and he received an ugly gaBh;
nder his right eye. His escape fron
either being killed or losing his eye was

very narrow, and he can congratula
himself that aid arrived so promptly.
vvasco county nas increased more in
population in- the past five years than
any other county in Eastern Oregon.
The increase thisvoumy shows by the
census of 1895 overtrat of 1890 is 1,266.
Sherman county, which by sentiment
and location seems still a part of Wasco,
is the next on the list, its population
having increaaed-COS in the same nran

... . . .
ubu nuns iu urge aneaa at sucn rates
during the years of unprecedented hard
times, what will be the rate when times
are good again? Immigration is being
attracted to the fertile lands of Sherman
and Wasco counties, and the next five
years will see an increase m population,
which will make these figureB, at pres
ent satisfactory, seem insignificant. The
best of it is that these people who have
made their homes with us are glad they
came.
A Tedious Trip.
Passengers who arrived on the de
layed passenger train from Portland
last evening report a tedious trip. The
train left Portland Thursday evening on
t'oie, but was unable to proceed further
than Oneonta. At this point a freight
train and tbe rotary plow were stuck in
an avalanche of enow. A freight with
sixty-one cars had left Albina, and as
tbe engine had about all it could do to
draw the cars on a smooth track, its
power to buck any enow was limited.
It was found necessary to set out a num
ber of cars before Oneonta was reached.
,Vhat made matters worse was that only
one engine was pushing the rotary and
could not furnish tbe power requisite to
go through the drifts. The enow piled
in ever tbe engine and plow so that
finally the engine was unable to back
out, and things came to a standstill.
Conductor Bennett, with a large force
of men and several engines, came up
from Portland and proceeded to get the
freight train from out its difficulty.
Fifteen cars were covered with snow.
When the freight train was extricated
more engines were attached to the snow
plow, and the freight train being put on
a siding, the rotary was allowed to paw.
Quick work was made of .the drifts from
that time on.
The steamer R. R. Thompson left
Portland yesterday morning, intending,

if necessary, to pick up the west-bound
passengers at Bonneville. The opening
of the road, however, obviated the ne
cessity of a transfer. ' At 9:30 last night
the train that left Portland twenty-four
hours previous, arrived in The Dalles.
Two engines were attached.
The local train arrived on time today,
and the road at present is clear.

There are some people who are never

don't know," or "I guess so.,' There is
a word of such people , and it is refresh
