WHY ?
Becati s
Becaus
Because
have we taken hold of the VICTOR BI
CYCLE as our leading Wheel.
after thoroughly testing a dozen different
makes, we have come to the conclusion
that the VICTOR is the
BEST.
it is mechanically perfect, and while not
TOO LIGHT for our bad roads, yet it
runs the easiest. ' - "" ', -' - ' :
it has a tire that, while light, is almost
PUNCTURE PROOF. (We will repair
all puncturess free for the season on 189Q
Victor Tires.) .
We have 1890 Bibycles that list at $103 that we will 8ell for $75,but tbey are
not VICTORS. Our 1896 VICTORS sell for $100. .
For medintn grade bicycles, we have the Waverley and Crescents $50 to $85.
Good second hand wheels, $25 to $50.
Bicycles and Tandems for rent. Wheels repaired. We keep constantly on
hand a good stock of compressed air, for inflating tires, and give it away. Get

Felix Jackson Killed.
Mr. T. W. Jackson, a- brakeman run
ning between this city and Umatilla,' re
ceived news yesterday of. the death of
his brother, Felix Jackson, at Sherman,
Texas. He inquired by telegraph if the
body could be preserved until he could
arrive to be present at the funeral, and
received a negative reply. Mr. Jackson
does not know the . manner of ' bis
brother's death.' Sherman is the Texas
town where fifty were killed by the cy
clone the other day, but he does not
think he was killed by the cyclone, as he
lived in that part of town not ravaged
by it. He thinkst more likely he was
killed in an accident, as he was a rail
road man: ' , - "
Felix Jackson lived in The Dalles just
before the big fire, and later moved to
Albina, where he was employed in the
shops.; He was unmarried. v
.. . Appreciated Id Antelope. . : .
. The last issue of . the Antelope Herald
thus speaks of the manner our local
orators were received in that precinct :-
Owing to the political epeafeing hav
ing taken place on Friday evening of
this week and the: forms having been
ready for the press the next morning, it
is impossible for us this week to give a
general or extended TeBumv xt the able
and forcible speeches made at this place
yesterday on the great political issues of
the day from a Republican standpoint of
view ; but we can say this muctrr That
no reasonable Republican who attended
the meeting, and who heard the political
issues discussed by those fairminded and
well-informed gentlemen, can do other
wise than vote?; for rand suooort'-the
"etraigbt Republican-ticket from Con-
left gressman Ellis down to Coroner Butts.
Hons. B. S.- Huntington,. John Michell

rators of - the day, and the- large Ma
sonic hall was packed full of people from
Antelope and Bakeoven precincts. Their
visit to Antelope was' highly appreciated
by all, and all the Republican nominees
made scores of good, warm friends,
whose ballots on the 1st day of June
will be cast in exactrjr theJ right direc
tion, he "other Republican nominees
whoTvisited this sep'tioii. ,ai. the same
time were .County , Clerk -A.-.il.- Keleay

The Dalles Commission Co. received a
crate of home-grown, strawberries today
grown by Mr. Stadleman. Oregon s
crop will:" not be so large and will be
about two weeks later this eeasoh than
last. Reports from Utah indicate that
state's crop will mature about the same
time as Oregon's, but the Oregon berry
is far superior to :any other and will
bring the to$ price. An order comes
from CripDle Creek' for 50" crates daily.
Denver and Colorado Springs' can 'easily
assimilate a car load daily. Wyoming
furnishes a new and promising market,
while' Montana and the" Sound cities are
inveterate purchasers of what is known
as the famous -Hood River strawberry,
by which is generally classed the Clark's
seedling v raised, anywhere in Wasco
county. Indications are that the de
mand this year will far exceed th
supply. .
