THE BILLS SKIP FOR JOY.
If pi osperity is not on hand in East
rn Oregon, then we have forgotten
what the term means. Right here at
The Dalles we have nearly 8,000,000
pounds of wool that will bring into
the country not less than $900,000
We have shipped more than 100,000
: eheep, and cattle galore, and now the
west wind toys with the bearded
wheat that laughs at the touch of its
breath. The dark green fields drank
the abundant rains, and tLe bappy
soil outdid itself in response to the
showers. Today over miles and miles
of rolling hills the billowing grain
turns to gold beneath the ardent sun
The heavy heads drunken, surfeited,
bend tiredly toward the earth, await
ing the stroke of the sickle that shall
give them rest. There never was
such grain in Eastern Oregon. Sher
man county will have 3,500,000
bushels, Wasco and Gilliam a million
each, and from across tfie river
Klickitat will send more than an
other million. The price starts at
about sixty cents, taking the San
Francisco market as a measure. That
means for Sherman county, even at
fifty cents a bushel, nearly two mill
ion dollars. With a voting popula
tion of not to exceed 800, this means
$2500 for each voter in the county.
It means nearly $500 for each man,
woman, child and baby.
If that isn't prosperity, what is it?
It will take 7000 cars to haul it to
market, and at twenty cars to the
train, one train a day for every work
ins; day in the year, or a train an
hour for thirteen days, ind if the
cars were all in a' line it would make
one train fifty miles long. The
wheat of Wasco, Sherman and . Gil
ham and Klickitat would load a
train of cars reaching from Grant to
Portland, and if paid for in silver
do.'lars, worth their face-in gold, it
would take 75 tons of them, or in
silver bullion 150 tons, or ten car
loads. It would take more than six
tons of twenty dollar pieces to repre
sent its value. The stock and wool
already shipped would add three tons
more to this, making nine tons of
gold to be distributed in Wasco,
Sherman and Gilliam counties.
The Clondyke isn't in it.
JAPAN AND SPAIN.
It is rumored that Japan and
Spain have formed an alliance for
the purpose of holding Uncle Sam in
check. The terms of the agreement
are alleged to be that in case the
United States interfeies in Cuba or
persists in annexing Hawaii, Japan
and Spain are to declare war and
make a demonstration, both on the
Pacific and Atlantic coasts. As
Spain can't subdue a few patriots
fighting for their liberty, down in
Cuba, and is practically bankrupt,
there is not much to fear from that
source. Japan is very cockey, but
she will find she is not fighting China
men if she tackles this country.
It is probable the rumor is without
foundation; but if Spain wants this
country to interfere in Cuba, she is
taking the right course, and if Japan
wants Hawaii annexed to the United
States she cannot accomplish that
fact quicker than by undertaking to
run a bluff. Hawaii is going to be
annexed, anyhow. Japan' has shown
the old mossbacks in the East how
necessary it is, and Cuba is able to
take care of herself.
The London Times says Secretary
Sherman's letter to Ambassador Hay
concerning the seals "is an attempt
in offensive language to fasten npon
England a charge of bad faith." For
once an English paper may fairly
claim perspicacity. That is what Eng
land has been guilty of. It may not
be politic to call a man a liar, even
when that fact is self-evident; but
why waste words in saying that "he
uses the truth in an astonisuisly frug
al -manner?" England has been
guilty of no faith at all in the matter.
However the seals are not worth
quarreling about, and it is to be
hoped they may soon be extermin
ated. This government has been
and is yet, at great expense protect
ing, or trying to- protect," the fur-
hunted animals from all the world
but one measty, rotten, dishonest
corporation. The quicker she goes
out of that business the better.
Woman in Kansas, at least, is be
ing granted all the rights and priyi
leges heretofore monopolized by the
men. At Kansas City, or the Kan
sas part of it, only last week the
board of police commissioners de
cided that female prisoners must don
overalls and work on the rock piles
the same as men. This raised such
a storm of protest that the board re
scinded that part of the order com
pell in 3 them to wear overalls; hut
this did not allay the storm, and
finally the whole order was rescinded

King's New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds, so demand it and do
not permit the dealer to sell you some
substitute. He will not claim there is
anything better, but in order to make
more profit he may claim somethingeise
to be just as good. You want Dr. King's
New Discovery because you know it to
be safe and reliable, and guaranteed to
do good or money refunded. For Coughs,
Colds, Consumption and for all affec

"Last summer one of our grand-

Remedy which gave very epeedy relief."

The Mount Lebanon Shakers have re
cently perfected an ingenious cure for
dyspepsia. Their Digestive Cordial con
sists of a food already digested and a
digester of foods happily combined.
The importance of this invention will
be appreciated when we realize what a
proportion of the community are victims
of some form of stomach troubles.
Thousands of pale thin, people have
little inclination to eat, and what they
do eat causes them pain and distress.
This Digestive Cordial of the Shakers
corrects any stomach derangement at
once. It makes thin people plump.
