The Dalles Daily Chronicle. The only Republican Daily Newspapei n Watco County. SATURDAY. - - - FEB. 27, 1S97 EASTERN OFFICE 230 to S3.', Temple Court, N. Y. City. E. KATZ, Agent. THE DECISION REVERSED. The United States court of appeals, sitting at San Francisco, lias rendered n decision on the appeal of the cases of the Eastern DOregon Land Co. against Messenger and Wilcox, re versing the decision of the court bo low, and deciding the ease in favor of the Eastern Oregon Land Co. The decision is in effect that The Dalles Military Road Co., of which I he Eastern Oregon Land Co. is suc cessor, having filed its map of defi nite location, with proper certificates of the completion of the road, on De cember 18, 18G0, the commissioner of the general land ofiicc, by order of the secretary of the interior, with drew from sale the odd numbered sections three miles upon each side of said wagon mad, as shown on the map, in favor of The Dalles Military Road Co. That in 1801 the grant was made to the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, the grant to cover all odd sections within certain limits, "when the United States had full title, not reserved, sold, granted, or otherwise appropriated, and free from pre emption'or other claims or rights at the time the line of said road should be definitely fixed. and the plot thereof filed in the office of the commissioner of the general land office." That the Northern Pacific Railroad Company did not file a nap or plat of the general route of its road until the 13th day of August, 1870; that no map of definite location was ever filed by said company. That the secretary of the interior erred in holding the grant to the Northern Pacific piior to ihe lands within the limits of the grant to the Dalles Military Wagon Road Co. That at the time of the filing of the map of definite location by the Dalles Military Wagon Road Com pany the grant to the Northern Pa cific had not gone into effect through its failure to comply with the law, and therefore the rights to the lands within the three mile limit became perfected, and the wagon road com pany were, under the terms of the grant, entitled to said odd sections It will bo seen from the above that Messenger and Wilcox lose their lands; and the question of ownership as between the wagon road company and those who settled upon odd sec tion within tho limits of its grant un der agreement with or consent of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, is settled acrainst the settlers. The wagon road company's title is do clarcd perfect. The ladies at Lone Rook, Gilliam county, have a secret society, which a correspondent of the Condon Globe in speaking o., called tho ladies' Orientals. This called forth a protest from the society, in which the society is stated to be entirely different from what the Orientals arc supposed to be. In closing tho pro tost the writer says: "Our order is a respectable affair, and of a most honorable character and will stand investigation." And yet only a few weeks ago, if wo are not mistaken, u couple of men of tho neighborhood undertook to investigate the work ings of the lodye from tho attic, and tho society would not stand it at all. After a scries of conferences, ex tending over a period of several days, tho wool growers and wool manufacturers have failed to adjust their differences over tho tariff rates to be recommended to the ways and means committee, and have departed for their homes. The manufactur ers tbmU the wool growers want too much, and tho wool growers think the manufacturers want it all. Tho outlook for a tariff on wool is not cheerful on Ibis account. The man ufacturers have the strongest pull.

The taxpayer is Jonathan Bourne, with his side whiskers cropped, and this accounts for the hilariousness of the leave -taking. .The house passed the bill provid ing for an international monetary conference, yesterday by a vote of 279 to 3.
