River pirates are again at worS
Losses of oars and rowlocks have been
frequent for over it week, but last night
tbe theft of a small boat was made from
Mr. Page's houseboat below the trestle
in Mill creek. In addition to the boat,
which was a good one, worth about $50. i
a valuable sturgeon line 100 feet Ion
was also taken. Mr. W. F. Grunow alj
reports the loss of a pair of oars.
There is a growing demand for house
room in The Dalles. It is thought that
when the school season opens, when
many families come in from the country
to give their children schooling, that
houses will be very scarce. Rent, even
at the present time, commands a very
high figure proportionately to other
prices. There is a good opportunity
preeented in The Dalles for the renting
of cottages and tenements should more
be built.
The teachers' institute closed today a
very pleasant and profitable month's
session. Though the earlier part of it
was during the excessive hot weather,
conducive to a very languid interest, for
the past two weeks it has been delight
ful. The attendance has steadily grown
and the interest was re' ark able. Those
who have attended tb institute throuh-
ut have gained the - ost, and may con
gratulate tnemselve, whatever has
been the sacrifice. However, those who
have attended only a day or two have
gained some ideas which will be of last
ing benefit, and will repay them for the
effort expended.
The institute has been in the hands of
capable instructors and the teachers
have worked with a will, making the
long session one which will always be
remembered with pleasure. That they
themselves realize their profit is mani
fest by the unusually long- and compre
hensive vote of thanks which they took
before adjourning.
Institute Resolutions.
The Comlne Fair.
I SAY, CHAPPY,
The annual county fair begins this Where are you eating now? Why, I
year Oct. '20th. It is not too soon to j am eating at the Clarendon Restaurant
commence taking an active interest in it ( and Cafe, No. 87 Second street, and I
on the part of farmers generally. The
custom is a most ancient and honorable
one, designedto promote agriculture
and the prosperity of the nation. In a
large measure it brings producer and
consumer together, cementing friend
ship and stimulating industry. In
olden times even monarchs were not
aloof from contributing their share to
the success of the country fair by all
means in their power, giving awards for
productions and even taking a part in
the sports. To this day there are rulers
who till the soil and thus set a good ex
ample to tbe people they rule. The
custom has survived the ages and even
finds a welcome in the most democratic
of countries. Hence country fairs may
indicate prosperity. The more attrac
tive, lively and meritorious it is, tbe
more it shows the stable foundation and
perpetuity of the republic.
The Wasco county fair this year is
held subsequent to the state fair. There
should be a liberal display in tbe art
and agricnltural halls. The- fruit ex
hibit especially should be made the very
finest if it is to show what is tbe actual
fact, that Wasco county leads the state.
As for the sports, some fine racing horses
are promised for the season. The speed
program is already out.

Reduction In Railroad Farea.
As there will be numerous requests
for reduced rates on account of political

made by the O. R. & N. Co. tor various
meetings of this character.
This of course is intended only for oc
casions where there is sufficient number
to justify a reduction in rates. This is
done so that there wil' be no partiality
in favor of any one p'arty.
