WH4T M'CQX IS ITt
The Alaska IvloDctike Mining and
."Transportation Company is receiving
some very good advertising at the
hands of the Oregonian. A few days
ago its manifesto was published in
the Oregonian's news column, and
yesterday the scheme was farther
called to the 'attention of the anxious
public, by a column article, fully il
lustrated. The scheme, in brief, is
to load a river boat on the deck of
au ocean sjeamcr, go to the mouth
ef the Yukon, and there launqh the
river boat. Applicants for transpor
tation on the first trip are. required
to put up three hundred dollars
when their application is made, and
thu3 make "secure the right td the
best the dual ships will afford.
The genius who lias devised this
wonderful and "sure thing" scheme
is one Geo. McCoy. This name
calls to mind the man whose great
financial ability created the "Western
.Land, Irrigation, Lumber fc Fuel Co.,
The Portland Land, Irrigation, Lum
ber & Fuel Co.,The Clinton & Mc
Coy Company, and made the Wa
pinitia ditch famous. Can it be
that this McCoy whom the Orego
nian is giving so much free adver
. Using is the same McCoy who, by
means of these several long, big
sounding corporate names, buncoed
the laborers who worked on the Wa
pinitia ditch, and many other credit
ors in this locality, out of their
. money ? who was arrested and kept
in jail at The Dalles during the sum
mer of 189G on a charge of obtaining
money under false pretenses, and
whom the sheriff- of this county
saved from a crowd of sixty or
seventy justly - indignant laborers
who called at the jail with lynching
intent? The laborers were deterred
in their purpose by a determined
sheriff and a Colts revolver, and
hence it is possible that that McCoy
is the same man whose scheme the
Oregonian is now advertising, and
were it not for the fact that this
greatest journal of the Northwest
: would surely not be a party to any
scheme which the aforesaid McCoy
' of Wapinitia ditch fame would ori
ginate, the similarity in the name of
the man and the long and big-sounding
corporate name of this Klondike
eompany would lead to tue conclu
sion that it is the same fellow.
We would suggest to the Orego-
. niac that it investigate the history of
this Alaska Klondike Transportation
McCoy, and if he should prove to be
the Western Land, Irrigation, Lum
ber it Fuel Co.'s McCoy, that it
warn the public to have nothinjr to
do with his scheme. It would there
. by possibly prevent some eastern
tenderfoot being "done . up" to the
extent of three hundred dollars. At
all events,'we wish the Oregonian
would inform us whether their Mc
Coy is the Geo. W. McCoy whose
very short neck Sheriff Driver saved
from being stretched.
PALO USE AND WASCO.
Kcports from the Palouse countiy
-as to the damage done' by the early
rains arc very discouraging. .Not
more than thirty per cent of the
gr&in is cut, arid it is estimated 'that
the damage now done is between
twenty '-'und thirty per cent. 'One
means. by which farmers have lost
considerable is the desire to thrash
bound grain from the shock to save
the expense of stacking. Owing to!
the scarcity of threshing machines
much of this grain, which could have
been stacked and thus saved from
the ram, is now standing in the stock
and is being badly damaged. Around
Garfield and Pullman the farmers
express themselves as being discour-
aged in view of the gloomy outlook.
At Tekoa, it is said, the outlook is
probably the worst, as there is very
little fall grain and the spring grain
is very late and green. "It will take
much dry, warm weather to ripen
the spring grain in time to cut be
fore it is injured by frost." One
merchant at Tekoa has said that un
der the most favorable, conditions
one half the crop near that . place
would be lost.
We trust these reports may be
overdrawn and that the situation is
not as dark as pictured. The clear
skies now smiling on Eastern Ore
gon are undoubtedly ,looklng down on
the Big Bend country as well and
dispelling the anxious looks of the
waiting farmers. A few days of
bright sunshine will do wonders in
reviving the hopes of everyone in
terested in the harvesting of a large
crop, and we believe the next re
ports will be of a more cheering
nature.
At the same time, while sympa
thizing with our neighbors' anxieties,
we cannot help remarking how fa
vorell isjthis section in which we
live. Wasco and Sherman counties
have produced crops satisfying to
the most exacting; threatening
clouds have passed away; harvesting
is in full blast, with work for all who
want it at remunerative wages; the
wheat market is advancing, while the
conditions for fair sowing are of the
best. Truly we are blessed this j ear
in ihe fullest measure, and it is fitting
that we rejoice while we may.

Indigestou ia often taken for con
sumption. The word consumptoin
means wasting away, and dyspeptics
often waste away as badly as consump
tive?.
The reason people waste away is be
cause either they don't getv enough to
eat, or they don't digest what they do
eat.
If the latter is your trouble, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial. This will
help you to digest your food and stop
your loss of flesh.

from herbs, barks and the juices of fruit,
by the well-known Shakers at Mount
Lebanon. It possess creat tonic and
