A Fine I'renenteil By tlicj
Order of Elk.
The armory was a scene of activity
yesterday afternoon. In the morning
orders were received to be ready to move
in twenty-four hours, and our boys were
making all preparation for a hasty de
parture. Guns, blankets and other nec
essaries were being dealt out by the
commissary ,and the lads were busily en
gaged in packing their knapsacks wiih
the few necessaries that they innst have.
Later in the evening orders to remain
hero until Saturday were received, and
so anxious were the boys to be off that
the latter com maud disappointed them.
qys from every walk in life are pre
paring to leave, and even the graduating
class from the high school will lose four
of its members, as Walter Reavls, Mux
Bartell, James Elton and Walter Dickey
will be among the boys of Co. G.
In the evening excitement ran high.
About 7 o'clock a crowd began to gather
around tbo armory, and later in the
evening Captain Booth arrived from
Portland, and the company turned out
and marched through the principal
streets, which were crowded with peo
ple anxious to see the' Boys in line.
Afterwards they returned' tq,tbe armory,
and after a turnout on the part of the
fife and drum corps, all the militia boys,
The Dalles herd of Elks and a large

ovation which was about to take place,
crowded in.

to order, and in an eloquent little speech
announced the object of the meeting
and suggested that a chairman be
chosen. Governor Moody was named and
elected. After taking the chair, he
made a few remarks and asked that
nominations be made fjpr vice-presidents.

the stage, a number of singers came up
from the audience, and, ns accompanied
by the entire audience, thev sang our
national hymn, "America," the walls
fairly rang, all joining' in the spirit of
this occasion, which to nil was Impres
sive. Mr. N. J. Sinnott then made a stirring
and patriotic address, in which he con
gratulated the young men for the privi
lege they enjoyed in being permitted to
fight in such a just cause. He also
spoke of the pride that every Dalies'
man, and the community in general,
feel in Co. G, and offered words of en
couragement and advice to the young
soldiers.
W. H. Wilson followed next, and com
mented at length on the serious nature
of the present occasion, on i,ts sorrowful
side, as well as the glorious mission they
go to perform.
B. S, Huntington then gave an enthu
siastic speech, and as he spoke it might
bejeen that not alone does true patriot
ism burn in the hearts of our soldier
boys, but also in the breasts of those who
endeavored to eucourage them.
M. P. Isenberg recounted some of his
own experiences on the battle field , and
told the boys something of both sides
of war. He spoke from personal experi
ence, and for that reason was the more
interesting.
"Columbia" was eung by the chorus,
and was followed by an address by Fred
W. Wilson. Referring to the patriotism
which has been manifeeted during the
war excitement', he rend, as an example,
a letter written by a Dalles boy, Arthur
Stubling, to his parents, pleading for
their consent to his enlstment. It was
pathetic in its earnestness and accom
plished the end for which it was intend
ed. During Mr. Wilson's speech he was
frequently interrupted by the loud ap
plause of the delighted audience.
Hon. John Michell was the next to
speak, and among other things he in
formed the boys of the intention of tho
Elks to present them with a beautiful
silk flag, which they have UBed for drap
ing their altar, assuring them that we
do not doubt in the least that they will
support that flag honorably, and when
they return after having done so, they
can feel certain that a hearty welcome
will be in store for them.
Captain J. W. Lewis, who is an old
war veteran and respected member of
the G. A. R., concluded' the speaking of
the evening by an address, in which he
gave our boys a good idea of what they
will have to encounter during these
troubled times. His Bpeech was re-
