predicting his easy defeat in the conven
tion ; but at that poiut their harmony
ends, and each has a candidate whom it
declares is the. best to fill Hermann's
place. Hermann may not be a well
roanded statesman in all respects, but
he has proven himself a hard worker,
and on. local issnes well represents the
state. His free silver vagaries are his
priLci pal fault; but the vote in the
house of representatives showed that the
danger from that source is passing.
Yhile it is our opinion that Hermann
represents the people of the first district
as well as any one that could go in his
place, it is none of our fight. The peo
ple of the second district have all they
can do determining whether or not Ellis
shall be re-elected. According to the
Pendleton Tribune this matter is al
ready settled and Ellis will be relegated
to private life.

A TIME-WORN 'THEME.
THE DALLES
i ItillLW
For twenty years the Cascade locks
hav been a theme uppermost in the
minds of the people of Eastern Oregon
When the work began it was believed a
few years would see it finished, but re.
peated delays caused repeated disap
pointments, till what promised to be an
early realization became only a cherished
hope. During these twenty years ap
proximately J3,500,000 have been spent
in the various details of the work ; a
sum sufficient, in the minds of compe
tent judges, to do the wprk twice over.
When, after years of waiting, the people
despaired of. ever seeing them finished,
a mighty effort was made, and congress
responding, the work was let by coi:-.
tract. This was believed a solution of
the problem, and the completion of tie
locks, without unnecessary delay,
eeeuied assured. Nothing was said
about defects in the plans existing,
which would prevent their operation,
nor was it hinted that the appropriation
was not large enough to meet the re
quirements. The people were given to
understand, and our representatives in
congress stated, in letters and upon the
platform, that the locks would, within
tbs specified time, be completed and the
benefits of an open river secured. Dates
were set for the completion of the work,
and changed as many times as fixed;
but the'people trusted in the statements
made to them, and believed it was the
hone6t intention of the men in charge to
complete the locks at the earliest oppor
tunity. This opinion does not exist
now.
It is idle to speculate what is the in
fluence working against the opening of
the locks. There can be but one the
railroad. It is the influence of the cor-,
porations that has blasted men in high
places and made them instead of ser
vants of the people, tools to a money
power. The locks, in their present con
' dition, are no better than if the first
spadeful had never been turned. The
people have asked for bread, and been
given a stone. It is foolish to trust in
the promises of men whose word is
proven to be unreliable, and the people
should rely upon their own efforts. The
locks must be open. . To leave them in
their present condition, nearly finished,
and yet not operative, is a burning sin.
Our delegation in congress, three of
whom, are active candidates for re-elec
tion, should be made to feel the temper
of the people, so that they will take
steps to have tbepresent condition abat
ed and . the completion of the locks or
dered. It is useless to try and place the
blame. ' That condition exists, which
must: be' bettered. To get the people
aroused is the first thing, and every
commercial organization should be alert
to lend its influence to cause the open-
ing of the locks.
Our suspicions mav be unjust; and if
so, we will gladly apologize; but they
.s are justified by the circumstances which
exist at the locks at this, the promised
time of opening.
ture is- now progressing at a very rapid
rate. The Dalles is the best location in
the state for such an institution, also a
wool scouring mill," and we hope to see
both these enterprises established before
many years. Antelope Herald.
The Herald is right when it says The
Dalles is the best location in the state
for a woolen and scouring mill. This
city is the largest wool shipping point
direct from the producers in the United
States, and why such a favorable loca
tion for a woolen mill should be neg
lected, is past understanding. No city
in the state possesses better transporta
tion facilities than The Dalles. The cli
mate is well suited for manufacturing
purposes ; wood and water power abund
ant. The fault is not with nature; is it
not with ourselves?
The future of The Dalles is connected
with manufacturers. Every effort ehould
be made to induce their location here,
while land is cheap and labor plentiful.
This is another opportunity for the
Commercial Club to benefit the town.
If a committee were appointed whose
business it would be to correspond witb.
capitalists regarding the establishment
of industries here, much" good would
result. Constant agitation is necessary
before a benefit of this sort can be se.
cured.
