THE BEAN AUTOMATIC
SPRAY PUMP.
Is, unquestionably, the most success
ful and perfect working Spraying Device
yet invented.
It is a unsvcrsal testimony that more,
as well as better, work can bo accom
plished with the Benn Spray Pump than
with any other pump on the market.
With this pump one man can charge
the receptable and leave it to direct tho
eprav just where it is wanted, and thus
with sufficient hose pass from treo to
tree. The solution is delivered in a line
mist or spray, penetrating every nook
and cornor, thus doing better and more
effective work than is possible by any
other method, and with no wasto what
ever of solution.

Drawing the Ciller.
To draw the cider we were sent,
We two on mirth and mischief bent,
She bore the candle daring high;
The old blue-llgured pitcher 1.
What shadows o'er the cellar wall
Tossed, huge and shapeless, dim and tall;
What eerie sounds from rack to bin,
And casks that pent real spirits lu.
The spigot turned, both heads bent low
To watch tho amber current flow.
The candle light llared strangely dim,
The pitcher must not over brim.
So close, so close our faces drew,
Our lips had touched before we knew;
And ere thev parted rogues disgraced,
Six quarts ot cider went to waste.

T. I. Nicholas is having a pipe made
with which he intends to test the hole
already drilled in Chenoweth creek to
gee ifja diamond drill will go down it.
The hole being drilled with a bit drill,
may possibly be uneven in places, so
that the round diamond drill would not
follow it. This is not thought to be the
case, but Mr. Nicholas is determined to
know before he attempts to use the dia
mond drill.
By freely admitting into its columns
the communications of people entirely
ignorant of the subjects upon which
they write, or unconscionably menda
cious, the Oregonian brings upon itself
unnecessarily distrust and hatred. A
newspaper without character soon be
comes poor property. There is no longer
anv monopoly of the news in Portland,
and the owners of the Oregonian invite
destruction by such methods. Salem

''Hon. T. T. Gecr, messenger of the

Guy L. Morton; "one of the men who

as to where he got the money, as be is
not accustomed to carrying that much.
Of course it cannot be taken as proof
that he had anything to do with the
robbery, but it is sufficient to make
those who know him venture opinions
on the subject.

The Dali.es, Or., Jan. 19. 1897.
To the Editoh ov The Ciikonicj.e:
In the daily issue of the Oregonian, of
the 18th inst., appears an article in
which it is stated that Senator Dufur is
not promised the land office at The
Dalles, but that it is his brother, W. H.
H. Dufur, and his hope of securing such
a place is contingent on his brothers
senatorial vote for Mitchell.
As I am tho party in question I wish
to brand the statement as a point blank
lie. Any aspirations that I might have
are not contingeut upon my brother's
vote on the senatorial question. I have
had no diecussion with him about tho
matter and presume that he will vote as
his conscience dictates and that he will
not sell himself out to any man, or set of
men, as from the looks of the thing it
would annear that some representatives
are doing, in keeping the house disor
ganized and not attending to business as
the people have expected them to do.
As to the petition circulated in The
Dalles, I have not seen one asking Hep
resentative Jones of Wasco county, to go
into any caucus, but I have seen one
that did ask him to go into the house
and aseist by his presence, vote and
voice, to organize the house for business,
as there is remedial legislation needed
fnr thi i-iponln that he represents, and I
" r 1 ' j
further say that if he or the cohorts of j
th rabbit drive of the late Wasco county
convention, had the principles of man-

Representing in the legislature at heart,
that they would not under any circum
stances be a party or parties, to the dis
graceful proceedings that are now being
enacted at Salem by the legislative dead
lock, in squandering the time and money
of the tax payers and people of this state.
I wish to say that I am not asking any
thing, nor have I been promised any
thing, but I like to see the Republican
party of this state act as they have done
heretofore, in the interests of good gov
ernment and the people,
Now in conclusion allow me to say
that it seems that I am singled out in
this country by some indiyidual or indi
viduals corresponding with that paper,
and let me assure you and them that it
matters but little to me what they say,
for their insane vaporings aro prompted
not by the true principles of manhood
and the best interests of the people, but
by little narrow contracted persona,!
jealousies of the would-be, but can't lie
(any longer) political bosses.

If Mr. Jones denies this we are prepared
to furnish tho proof. Those promises
elected Jones, as a good many Republi
cans, knowing who nominated him, de
clined to vote for him until these pledges
were made. We, tho undersigned,
heard Jones promise unqualifiedly to
vote for John II. Mitchell if he was
elected representative.

Hood Rivkh, Or., Jan. 18, 1897.
Editor Chuonicle :
Republicans of this community are
getting tired ot seeiug in each issue Ot
The Oregonian a statement from The
Dalles that F. N. Jones was not pledgee
to support anyone for United States
senator. He positively pledged himself
prior to election to support and vote for
John H. Mitchell, and we are prepared
to substantiate the fact with affidavits
from a score of responsible men of this
place, besides we bold a letter written.
A good story is told about a bright
young fellow over in Morrow county,
who showed some very good judgment
and a sharpness which young men
over here might well imitate.
This particular young man was given
$50 by his parents, who re3ide some
miles from Heppnor. Ho was instructed
to proceed to Ileppner, interview the
sewing machine agente, and purchase
tho best and most improved machine to
be found on tho market.
This young fellow conceived a brilliant
scheme and carried it out. He mounted
a saddle horse, leading another, and
went over to the home of the young lady
tn whom ho had vowed love as eternal
as the light of thu stars in tho blue
heavens above. He laid his plan be
fore her, exhibited tho $50 and Induced
her to go to Heppner with him and get
married.
This was accomplished in a few hours.
Then, after 11 modest wedding dinner at
the Palace hotel, to which a few friends
were invited, the young couple mounted
their horses and rodoto the young man's
home. The bride was presented to the
astonished parents and when they
asked where was tho sewing machine,
tho brilliant youth replied that his now
wlie waB the best and most upproved
sewinir machine of which ho had any
knowledge, and so ho had brought her
home in fulfillment of tho parents or
ders. They accepted her. ...,..
,After the installation ceremonies at
the last meeting of Columbia Chapter,
No. 33, Order of tho Eastern Star, re
marks were made by several members,
and then Mrs. Biggs presented Mrs.
Myers an elegant pin in behalf of Co
lumbia Chapter, which she said was
but a silent token to show their love for
her and appreciation of her faithful
worn in the order for tho past two
vears. In this case the surprise was;
genuine. After a moment's uiougut,
Mrs. MyerH expressed her appreciation
aud thanks for tho beautiful gift. The
measures of the ovenlng were greatly
enhanced by the excellent music of the
choir. The 'luncheon of the season"fl
was served in the dining-hall, and al)
pronounced thu evening the brightest
and best in the memories of Columbia
Chapter. -
