The manufacturers fair in Portland
will, undoubtedly, attract a large num
ber of visitors from this section.
Take a look at Pease & Mays grocery
window. They have a most attractive
dieplav of dried, pickled and canned
fish.
This is just the kind of weather that
would have enabled The Dalles boys to
win the championship cup if we had
had our tournament.
Let the boy have a sew. suit when he
returns to school. It will only cost you
two-thirds of the regular price if bought
at Pease & Mays this week.
Pease & Mays have nearly completed
the addition to their buegy warehouse
oa Second street. This will dive them
largely increased storage roam.
Now is the time to. buy real estate in
The Dalles. It is a.atow now as it can
ever get and is6ound to go higher.
This is the way great fortunes are made.
The county court is- busy today' con
sidering bills against the county. There
are several important matters yet to be
decided, which will be taken up after
the bills are disposed of.
Wasco and Sherman counties should
. hold a "Harvest Home" festival. ' This
is a custoot long established in older
countries and is always made a happy
event. In the midst of our plenty there
should be some occasion for thanksgiv
ing and a "Harvest Home" could be
made to express our feelings of gratitude
end satisfaction. All it needs is some
one to start it.
Arrangements have been made for the
remodling of the - Commercial ' Club
building and it is expected work will be
begun in a few days. Extensive alter
ations will be made and when com
pleted the club will have quarters as
fine as any in the state.
The scaffolding for the steeple of the
new Catholic church gives an idea of the
height which the top will be from the
grounds The steeple can be Been from
every portion of the city, and is a grace
ful ornament to an exceedingly hand
some building. The Dalles has done
well this year in the matter of new
churches, as the Lutheran society have
their new building well under way, and
when finished it will be a credit to the
town.
It is expected work will be begun
shortly on the new railroad bridge across
Mill creek. The pile driver is now
busy on another portion of the road and
when through there it will be moved to
The Dalles. The railroad company is
making many improvements along the
line, none of which are more needed
than the replacing of the old Mill creek
bridge by a new one. The' bridge at
Cbenoweth has been filled in with dirt
and rock till it is as substantial as any
part of the road.
Here is a Sherman county farmer
whom the Observer believes has solved
the problem "How to be prosperous :"
"Last week one day the Observer man
visited threshers east of Moro and spent
a couple of hours at the farm of Robert
Newton. Mr. N. is a model farmer. He
has corn that goes twenty bushel per
acre ; 5000 sacks of wheat ; artichokes
milht,' rape, alfalfa, saudovich freze,
sperry, sugar beets, turnips, squashes,
onions, melons, etc., in profusion. Mrs.
Newton is proud of her Jersey cow,
which produces lots of rich butter.
A vigorous effort is being made on the
part of the directors of the district fair
association to ho'd a successful meeting
here next month. This is as it should
be. The Dalles has let a Fourth of July
celebration and the firemen's tourna
ment (not through any effort of itn own,
however) slip through, and now is the
chance to even up by holding a rousing'
fair meeting. This is the year of al!
others to hold it in. We have had a
big crop and a good price ; the farmers
are lifting mortgages and getting out of
debt in a way to make everyone feel
good ; business men are enjoying a good
trade, and expect to do the largest busi
ness this fall they have ever .done. We
have had our touch of bad weather and
can expect to be better treated in this
regard from now on.' With these . con
siderations "in .view, it is eminently
proper that our citizens make an effort
to have a fair this year which, will
eclipse all previous attempts.'.
A Political Surprise.
the recommendations of a united dele
gation .as to appointees will be received
and acted upon.
"This cannot , occur until December
next. The reappointed officers there
fore have a further lease or about four
months of the salaries of their respective
offices."
It was generally supposed that in case
of an ad interim tippointment -in the
district attorney's office that Paul Deady
would be eelected. It eeems, however,
that the administration does -not pro
pose to make any changes that would
lead to bard feeling, and as a conse
quence has taken the easiest way on t of
the difficulty by naming the old officers.

Degree of Honor Social.
The Degree of Honor lodge gave an
other of its always pleaeant socials last
evening. The hall was well filled with
an audience of ladies and gentlemen,
who took keen delight in listening to a
well rendered program. The lodge went
in regular session at 8, and afterward a
short intermission followed for the re
ception of guests. The. following pro
gram was rendered :

The political world was startied by
the announcement made yesterday that
Justice Field had' signed' commissions
for Henry C. Grady as United States
marshal and Daniel R. Murphy as U.
S. attorney to serve until their success
ors are appointed. This news will be a
surprise generally, and especially to the
members of the Oregon delegation and
their appointees, who had counted on
no such interruption to their work of
parceling out the officers. The follow
ing taken from last night a Telegram
gives a good idea of the situation :
United States Attorney Dan R. Mur
phy, who on September 1st stepped
down and out, with the prefix of "ex" to
his official title, is once again in office
and may be found at the old stand.
This morning's Eastern mail, was late,
it not being delivered until 1 p. m. That
was of little moment to the majority of
Portland people, but to some of the
politicians cf this city, had they known
the bombshell in a mild, sense it con
tained, it would have meant much.
There was in one of the mail pouches
the reappointment ad interim of-Attor
ney Murphy, signed and sealed by Su
preme Justice Stephen J. Field.
In another pouch was a missive, like
wise from Justice Field, containing the
reappointment ad interim of United
States Marshal Grady.
And now a wail arises from the "push
for the possibilities that have arisen on
the political horizon with these reap
pointments, are such as to cause gray
hairs to start in the heads of some of
the "recommended" of the lately ad
journed caucus of Senator McBride and
Representative Tongue and Ellis.
The situation now existing, as suc
cinctly described by a' well-known poli
tician, on hearing of the reappoint
ments, is this:
- "McBnde, Tongue and Ellis," said the
politician,' "in their deliberations and
recommendations, overlooked the fact
that .Henry W. Corbett might desire to
have something to say in the matter.
The appointments of the delegation were
sent on to Washington Sunday last after
a week at effort on the part of the dele
gation to agree. In' the meantime Mr.
Corbett had waited on President McKin
ley and informed the administration that
he had some friends of his ownjn Ore
gon wnom it mignt oe judicious ana in
the interests of the Republican party to
reward with office and that it would
probably be well to postpone the mak
ing of new - appointments until such
time SB the statue of Mr. Corbett as
senator or private citizen was fixed.
"The factional fight in the Republican
party of Oregon, which prevented the
regular naming of a United States sena
tor, being still fresh in' the president's
mind, Mr. McKinley has taken the sug
gestion of Mr. Corbett as being, well
placed, and he has therefore made known
to Justice Field that to avoid any en
tanglement in Oregon it might be well
to reappoint ad interim the old federal
officers and then when the senate con
venes and, Mr. Corbett's case is decided,
An Important Decision.
About eighteen months ago the United
States commenced suits in the IT. S.
circuit court against the Eastern Oregon
Land Co. and a large number of its
grantees to set aside patents theretofore
issued, upon the ground that as the
land was within the limits of the grant
to the X. P. R. R. Co., it was not in
cluded within the grant to the Dalles
Military Road .Company. Messrs. Hunt
ington & Wilson appeared for many of
the defendants who -had purchased the
land of the company and demurred to
the complaint, for the reason, among
others, that the grant to the Dalles
Military Road Co. took effect first, and
therefore the patents were properly is
sued. They today, received notice that
their demurers have been sustained by
Judge Bellinger.
This decision is in line with other de
cisions rendered by the circuit' of ap
peals, and, if sustained by the supreme
court of the United States, -will settle
the controversy over these lands in favor
of the Eastern Oregon Land Co. and its
grantees.
