The Dalles Daily Chronicle, ' The only Republican Daily Newspapet Wasco County. - SATURDAY, - 'NOV. 28. 1896 EASTERN OFFJCE-SSO to i34 Temple 4,'ourl N, Y, C'ty. E. KATZ, Agent. THE LONG- AQO. The good old days of our fathers so often spoken of, exist largely in tbe imagination. : It is no doubt true that tach generation has looked back ward to compare existing conditions with those gone before, and each in .turn 'has regretted the passing away of the circumstances under vrhich its . predecessors liyed, prospered and uien. Ana yet eacn generation may veil afford to congratulate itself on the advancement made over the con unions or ine generation it suc- ' ceeded. We point to tbe early days of the Republic, and yet what was there then taax.we would, change the present for. Then there was no cars, no steamboats, no steamships, no tele graphs nor telephones, no electric lights, no postal conveniences, no street railways,- no nothing.-'- The stage coach was the then solution of rapid transit, the packet rushed along the canal at the rate of almost five miles an hour, was an achievement ' that filled the hebdomedal .newspaper with wonder, and tfie minds of the gazing populace with awe. Mails wete carried by private parties 'and postage was chorged according to the distance the Jetter traveled. The ; products of the . West found market in the East in tbe shape of live stock bat eould foot it to its destination, and in thai alone. Cincinnati was uivuci uuiu new auik, in time, than Calcutta is today. The news was fresh at the age of from a week to six months; the daguerreotype was a wonderful thin;, and the en gravings and works of art now with in the reach of all were unobtainable, even by the rich. Our old school books were illustrated with pictures that, while they delighted the fnthers of' the, republic io their infancy, would not now be sent to an Indian n,uwi iu iwua, uiiu even men me happy urchins who gowned them, ad . mired their beauties either by the light from the fire or the extravagant illumination of the lallow dip. . The countrj' produced great men then, it is true, but they were great, not on account of better opportunity, but in spite, of "obstacles. There is a vast difference now the difference between the fifty-tnile-an-hour rail- uaiu auu iue Bix-inue-an-nour atage coach; the difference between comfort and discomfort between stilts, and a bicycle : between tbe speed of the horse and the set there - ot chain lightning. , It is on the same principle that we deceive ourselves about the things of out childhood. Who ever re-visited the home of his boyhood after he bad reached middle age without , be ing struck by ; the fact that every- ouuvueu. ine oia chest, nut tree that was fifty feet to the first limb, has sprouted branches forty feet - lower. The great hay mow, where- we sought the new-laid egg, has became but a very small -affair; the lake above the mill that excited our, wonder is a frog pond, and the four-acre field, where we so longed for the short rows in hoeing time, has become a' mere truck patch. . It is f better, perhaps, that we should regret conditions past, that did not exist, than to envv 'thnse vet. held in, the future, but sure to come. Life fifty years from now will exist under highly improved conditions, but most of us will not be here to enjoy them. We can 'console oar selves .with the reflection that how ever much we may envv those who come after us, they will in turn talk of the good old days of their fathers, meaning us, the dissatisfied genera tion mourning for the good old days of our fathers. . In the language of the good old Widow Bedott, "We're all poor critters;" but the fellows who held the boards before us were all right - ' ' 1-' . - , ' i ' HOW' IS YOUR EYESIGHT." - . r-; f ' - .'1 -;' Dr. J. 'C. XanDcrberg, Eye, Specialist,' Gndnata of Speucer Opthalmlo Col-' H lege. New York City. People having weak eyesight should not miss this opportunity to-have, their eyes properly examined and.fitted.
