The Epworth League will hold their
monthly business meeting this evening
at 7 :30 in the M. E. church.
Wheat is still on the rise and sells
here today at 80 cents. It closed yes
terday in the local market at 78 cents.
This fine weather is a great ineeutive
to buggy riding, and many turnouts are
seen upon our streets every evening.
Patents were recorded in the county
clerk's office today from the United
States to R. D. Pftcher and Victor Ward.
The Dalles City took a load of wool
down this morning. But little wool re
mains to be shipped, and all that is here
is sold. y
The fishing season began at midnight,
and wheels and ryHs are ready to cap
ture the festive salmon, if they will only
put in appearance.
The reports from the grain fields of
the Palouse country are more reassuring,
and the bright weather has raised the
hopes of the farmers.
The frame for the new residence of
Prof. Gavin on Union street is in place
and the outline indicates the residence
will be a very pretty one.
County court has finished its labors
and adjourned. There are some routine
matters left, which Judge Maya has yet
to adjust, but the commissioners' work
is over.
The warehouses are getting very little
rest this year. No sooner is the wool
gone before they begin filling up with
wheat. Borne wheat is being stored, but
the most is bought outright, the price
being too tempting to allow of much
delav.
The change in the O. R. & N. local
agency is being made today and as soon
as the transfer is made, Mr. Ireland will
assume the position. He arrived in the
city this morning.
The teachers of the public schools
met this morning and classified the
pupils for the coming year. A number
of new scholars have already appeared
for enrollment and the prospects are
bright for a large enrollment. "
Work on the foundation for the new
house of Judge Blakeley is progressing
rapidly, and the frame will soon be be
gun'. When completed this residence
will be another ornament to a very
pretty part of town.
Wheat at eighty cents is going to
knock the smithereens out of the Popu
lists. Farmers are too busy making
money to give much attention to the
argument of how the gold standard is
grinding the face of the poor.
An attempt will probably be made
next week to raise some additional
money for the fair. The state appro
priates liberally, but if our business
men will make an additional contribu
tion, the meeting cannot help being a
success.
Mr. and Mrs. S. R. Reeves, who con
ducted the Mt. Hood Hotel at Hood
River for eome time, have moved to
Baker City and taken charge of the
Hotel Sagamore. Those' who made the
trip to Cloud Cap Inn last summer and
stopped at Hood River on the journey,
will remember Mr. and Mrs. Reeves
pleasantly.
The Baldwin opera house was crowd
ed last night at the entertainment given
by the Nitrogen Medicine Co. Some of
the specialties were very good, the fire
eating act being especially creditable.
The management say the troupe will
give a better show tonight than it did
last evening, and the entertainment will
undoubtedly be worth attending.
Undoubtedly more money is received
in The Dalles for the shipment of raw
materials than in any city in the state,
and yet we buy all our manufactured
materials. There is a lethargy some
where which must be dispelled before
we can pat one another on the back
and say we are any good. -The time
will come when The Dalles will regret
her past inertia and that time is nearly,
if not quite here, now.
Some of those interested in bowling
are seeking to arrange a contest between
the Commercial Club and an outside
team. If the negotiations now under
way are carried out, a tournament of five
nights will be conducted. Two nights
will be played on the Commercial Club
alleys and two nights on the Umatilla
House alleys, the alley for the fifth
night to be decided by a toes up. Four
games will .be played each evening,- mak
ing twenty games in all. The club that
loses will be compelled to Bet up a sup
per for all the players. Such a contest
would undoubtedly create great interest
and be the cause of much merriment.
PENDLETON VS.' THE DALLES.
It Lqoks Like an Initial Attempt- to
Secure tue District Fair.
A Pendleton dispatch to the Telegram
says :
At a citizens' meeting held in the
rooms of the Commercial Association in
Pendleton last night, a committee was
appointed to solicit subscriptions to a
stock company which it is proposed to
organize for the purpose of building an
agricultural fair ground in this city.
This means more than what the tew
words indicate. Pendleton is after the
District fair meeting, which by legisla
tive enactment, ia now held at The
Dalles. The legislature has appropriated
$1500, which is spent every year in
premiums for exhibits at the fair, and
without this sum no meeting could be
held.
The people of Pendleton have come to
believe, through successes in the past,
that they can wrest anything they wish
from The Dalles and not content with
capturing the woolen mill and scouring
miil, both of which were offered us, are
now taking steps looking to Pendleton
being designated as the place for holding
the District fair. Already one director
lives in Umatilla county, and he can be
expected to lend the Influence of his po
sition towards the attainment of that
object.
We say no word of blame against our
neighboring city. She is doing only
what any ambitious town should do and
we admire her enterprise and spunk,
but we wish to call attention tojthe fact,
which should be patent to all, that The
Dalles must bestir' herself and counter
act the efforts made to secure the hold
ing of the District fair at another place.
The benefits derived from this annual
meeting are many and obvious. The
coming in of exhibitors and visitors
from the country and the consequent
excitement is a stimulus to trade and
the indirect results aie as great as those
which take place at- the moment. As a
social feature the fair has been a pleas
ant one, and all who attend the exhibits
at the pavilion depart better satisfied
with the city and county in which they
live.
This subject is one which should not
need agitation, though seemingly it
does. There is yet time in which to
made arrangements for holding a suc-
cooofn 1 fili. All tk.t a - 1 . ) r 4 1

Dogs, and to Spare,
J. P. Hubrickfend wife of Pasco paBeed
through Goldendale the latter part ot
last week, leaving for The Dalles Satur
day morning. Mrs. . Hurbrick ' will re
main in The Dalles while her husband
goes to Alaska. Mr. Hurbrick has sev
eral dogs with him and expects to get
more in The Dalles, making about six
teen altogether, which he will use in
sleighing in that country. He will leave
Seattle lor the Klondike country about
the middle of the month, as by that
time the ground up there will be frozen.
He has given his wife permission to get
another husband if he isn't back within
five years. Sentinel.
" Mr. Hubrick need not worry about not
finding enough dogs in The Dalles. We
have all kinds and descriptions, and al
though none of them may be suited to
Klondike, yet we wieh he would take a
dozen or two and try them.
Ike Wj l Grande Rustles.
The Dalles has lots to learn from
neighboring towns in Oregon. Here is
the way La Grande goes after the beet
sugar factory proposition. We wish the
piece that follows could have been writ
ten about The Dalles instead of La
Grande:
A called meeting of the Commercial
Club was held Tuesday evening. The
principal business of the evening was
that in regard to the sugar factory prop
osition. Communications were received
from the parties in Portland relating to
the preliminary matters and assurance
was given that the new company is
ready to do business as soon as the sub
sidy is in hand and other details are ar
ranged. Chairman Oliver appointed commit
tees to posh the work of canvassing in
La Grande and vicinity as follows:
First ward M. Baker, chairman ; Geo.
H. Curry and David Bay.
Second ward J. W. Scriber, chair
man; Wm. B. Sargent and Charles
Nessley.
Third ward Henry Rinehart, chair
man ; John Schilling and John E.
Hough.
Const) Court Proceedings.
The session of the county court, for
the September term was a very brief
one. Besides considering the usual
grist of bills against the county, several
road matters were taken up and this
was about all that occupied the court's
attention.
The petition of Wm. McCorkle and
others for a county road was read the
second, time and the petition granted,
and the road declared a public highway.
The clerk was instructed to issue alias
warrants and attach them to the delin
quent tax rolls of 1895 and 1896.
In the matter of the road petition of
G. J. Gesling and others, Louis F. Hen
derson put in a claim for $100 damages.
Chas. Chandler, H. J. Hubbard and W.
H. Perrin were appointed appraisers.
Regarding road petition of G. E. John
ston and others, J. B. Goit was ap
pointed surveyor and W. D. Richards,
Wm. Davidson and W. Taylor viewers.
Chicago MarRet Report.
The following is reported by Downing,
Hopkins & Co., Chicago Board of Trade
brokers, 712 Chamber of Commerce
building, Portland:
Wheat advanced 2l cents yesterday
and closed firm, with prospects of a
further advance. English, German
French and Russian markets were all
higher. A cargo of No. 1 standard Cali
fornia, 500 pounds, on vessel, prompt
shipment, sold in Paris at 39s 9d.
The corn market displayed great ac
tivity and increased interest was shown
by the outsider. The crop is in a preca
rious condition, and about three weeks
behind in growth. The late hot spell in
Iowa has greatly retarded it, and a sharp
frost which is liable to come any day
would make a total losa.
Taxpayers, Attention.
This is my last and final call to you,
as the county court has issued an im
perative order.
By virtue of a warrant to me directed,
issued, by the clerk of the county court
of the state of Oregon for the county of
Wasco, commanding me to collect the
delinquent, county, state and other
taxes, I will, on the 1st day of October,
1897, without farther notice, levy upon
and sell all property upon which taxes
remain unpaid. T. J. Driver,
Sheriff.

Hood Hose Co., No. 4, will be held at
