WHAT M VST BE DOXE.
For many years the problem of
transportation was a troublesome one
for The Dalles. Depending entirely
upon a single line of railroad, our
merchants were compelled to paj
freight rates greatly in excess of
what they should have been. This
condition was ameliorated only
through persistent agitation nnd the
efforts of our citizens, which resulted
in an independent line of steamers
being placed upon the river. This
"brought freight rates to their proper
level. With the advent of compet
ing transportation, the business of
Ihis city received a great impetus,
and attention was directed to this
place because of the recognized ad
vantages which The Dalles held over
other Eastern Oregon towns. No
other factor has done so much tow
ard the upbuilding of this city as the
starting nnd maintaining of the boat
Jine.
The completion of the Cascade
Locks has. removed forever any pos
s'.bility of the merchants of The
Dalles becoming the prey of foreign
monopoly. Low freight rates are
permanently secured, and the bene
fit can hardly be overestimated.
Some are making the mistake,
however, of supposing that this alone
provides for the permanent prosper
ity nnd growth of The Dalles. This
is hardly the case, notwithstanding
it is a great aid in such a direction.
Other means must be provided to
continue and increase the trade now
coming to this point, so that com
pensation may be had for the loss of
territory which may be tapped by
the building of railroads from other
places.
There are two propositions which
must be kept ever in view by those
who have at heart the city's welfare.
One is that a better system of roads
leading into the interior must be de
vised; and the other is that the man
ifest destiny of The Dalles, if proper
ly worked out, is to become a manu
facturing center. The arguments in
favor of these contentions have been
.repeated so often and are known so
well that it is useless to state them
lere; but the time has come, or is
Mainp last, wheu something more
tha were acknowledgement of their
fSTM will, suffice. We cni.not live
iunnplj:m P8t alone ; it is nec
mrjf ftp, fJrfl 'or tb future, and
1fcii,ytr, tk wiuds of many, de
Mm wlielUw we intend to fulfill our
destinj', or lcl it slip by unnoticed,
as many other good things have
done.
The position occupied, by Presi
dent McKinley just now is peculiarly
a hard one. Upon him rests the
responsibility of settling the Spanish
difficulty without war, if possible,
and at the same time satisfy the de
mands of the American people, the
great majority of whom favor ng
gressive movement in the direction
or war. Today will probably de
termine whether or not congress it
self will take the matter in charge.
The president has acted most honor
nbly nnd creditably in nil his negoti
ations, and congrcs would do well to
allow him n little more time in bring
ing Spain to terms. At the same
time none will deny that the incen
tive and provocation for congress to
declare war immediately' is groat.
Now is the time for statesmanship
in the Republican party to come to
the front, aud for the "politicians" to
go the rear. Republican success
nest June depends altogether upon
the wisdom shown in party councils
between no v and the close of the As
toria convention. Nothing can be
more certain than that a bolt by a
disgruntled faction at that conven
tion will mean Populist success at
the polls. Outside of Multnomah
county the party in the state is united,
nnd the delegates who attend the
convention should do now, as they
should have done two years ago, ig
nore the Multnomah county light and
make nominations which shall appeal
to the commendation of the people
at large, whether the meet the views
of the professional politician or not.
Representative Ellis has had the
honor of presiding over the house ot
representatives during an absence of
Speaker Reed. This is a compli
ment to Oregon's congressman which
his friends will appreciate.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
This reined; is intended especially for
cougbe, colde, croup, whooping congh
and Influenza. It has become famous
for its cures of these diseases, over a
large part of the civilized world. The
most flattering testimonials have been
received, giving accounts of its good
works ; of the aggravating and persisf
ent coughs it has cored ; of severe colde
that have yielded promptly to its sooth
ing effects, and of the dangerous attacks
of croup it has cured, often saving the
life of the child. The extensive use of
it for whooping coughs has shown that
It robs that disease of all dangerous con
sequences. For eale by Blakeley &
Houghton.
Whooping cough is the moat distress
ing malady ; but its duration can be cut
short by the use of One Minute Cough
Care, which is also the best known
remedy for croup and all lung and bron
chial trouble.
