Senator McReavy, of Mason county,

in fisheries, is investigating conditions
at Bellingham bay. It is said that bis

We are requested te announce that
the public schools will open in The
Dalles on Monday Sept. 12th. All
children who have the intention of at
tending school this year should com'
mence on the opening day as it is not a
good idea to enter after the classes have
began the years work besides it makes it
difficult and disagreeable for both pro
feasors and scholars.
The bowlers at The Dalles Commercial
Club have proposed a- echeme which is
meeting with much favor among the as
sociation bowlers, and will probably be
carried ont. It is proposed that the
clubs, by subscription, procure a eilver
trophy, to be bowled for once a year,
probably on Thanksgiving day, to be
known as the Thanksgiving Day trophy.
The team winning it is to. retain posses
sion for one year, and three winnings, or
PEASE
wo winnings in succession, to give per
manent possession. This will make a
very popular contest. The Arlington
Club, of Portland, now has a similar
contest, which is an individual event,
the prize being a fine gold medal, which
is bowled for on Thanksgiving day and
Washington's birthday, annually.
Joseph Corvinus, e woodchopper, com
mitted suicide at Woodland Friday by
shooting himself in the mouth. On a
page of a notebook found in his cabin
were these words : "Grievously, wrong
fully accused of a crime, an innocent
man." Several years ago a man named
Huckley was murdered. Corvinus was
suspected, but there was no evidence
against him. Corvinus never recovered
from the blight of suspicion.
The cool -weather today is certainly de
lightful, and will have the effect of driv
ing home the campers as well as those
who are at the numerous summer re
sorts. This morning it threatened rain
which caused no small amount of uneas
iness to be felt for the grain which is
stacked in the field awaiting to be
threshed, or that which is sacked and
lying in piles without any great amount
of covering to protect it in case of a
heavy rain fall.
Bowling at the club alleys last week
was equally light as it has been during
the summer months. Scarcely anyone
bowled and no high scores were made.
At the Umatilla House the bowlers were
as enthusiastic as ueual and scores were
made as follows: On Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday Maetz made
64, 67, 64 and 65, Friday N. J. Sinnott
made 73, on Saturday McFadden made
64 while oa Sunday Harry Esping

64.
Industrial Agent K. C. Judson com
menced this week to put up an exhibit
of Oregon Products at the Portland Ex
position which opens September 22d. It
is predicted that the display will be the
most artistic ever seen in this state and
will surpass Oregon's exhibit at the
Worlds fair. Two young Walla Walla
ladies engaged to do the decorating are
natural artists and Etudents of botany.
Included in the exhibit will be many
variaties of grasaea and grain harvested
at the Walla Walla experimental farm
this eeason as well as many other Ore
gon products from the different sections
of the state.
The report which was current Satur
day about an accident in the launching
of the Regulator , and that the boat was
again on the rocks, was withont foun
dation. The ways did not break and
the only trouble was that the hydraulic
capstan with which they were drawing
tne Doat into tne water aid not work
rapidly enought to take up the slack in
cable when the boat started to take the
plunge, and after sliding about half its
length it lodged on the wave. As soon
as the cable is properly arranged the Reg
ulator will be pulled into the water,
which will probably take place this af
ternoon or tomorrow. The hull has
been patched up, and as they have an
abundance of barrels in the hold, it is
impossible for the boat to Bink, even if
it does contain numerous leaks, which is
considered doubtful.

THE PRESS ASSOCIATION
MOST ENJOYABLE AND SUCCESS
FUL SESSION EVER HELD.
Royal Treatment Received By Guests
liusiness Transacted and a Good Time
Knjoyecl Next Meeting to lie Held
tn the City by tbe Sea.
The joint meeting of the Oregon and
Washington press association was held
at Spokane on the 24th, 25th, and 26th,
the closing meeting taking place Satur
day afternoon, a number of tbe mem
bers leaving on the evening train. '
About three hundred newspaper rep
resentatives were in attendance, and al
though former meetings have been prof
itable and enjoyable, this year's sessions
were the crowning ones of years, not
alone as regards the business transacted,
but tho pleasure ot meeting with the
sister association made it doubly enjoy
able. Some of the brightest newspaper
writers of the Northwest added to the
excellent program which had been pro
vided by the Spokane press club.
If the visitors had not already been
convinced of the energy and enterprise
of Spokans people by the appearance of
the city itself, with its block after block
of brick building, where a few years ago
were laid waste numbers of business
houses, the entertainment afforded them
would have been sufficient proof.
The moment they entered tbe city the
businesslike attitude of its citizens was
apparent and the royal manner of enter
tainment has intensified the first im
pression. True to their eye to business
ample time was given for tbe eessions of
the associations, which were well at
tended. Te enumerate all of the pleasures af
forded to the guests would only be tir
ing to readers, who certainly could have
no conception of their variety and ex
cellence. Among them, however, were
a reception, trolley rides, a dance, a very
swell musical at tbe Hotel Spokane for
tbe ladies, and, chief of all, a trip over
the Northern Pacific to Lake Coeur d'
Alene, and cruise around tbe lake. The
popularity of the Northern Pacific in
creased steadily as mile after mile of the
trip was covered, and the praises of the
entertainejs were continually sung.
The excursion left the city a few mo
ments after 8 o'clock from the Northern
Pacific depot, and in an hour and a half
had made the run to Couer d' Alene
City, and in a few moments were on the
steamer of that railroad company, which
is one of the finest and fastest boats in
Northwestern inland waters.
The Washington State Band was pres
ent throughout tbe day and added much
to the pleasures of the occasion. In fact
one of the features of the day was the
music of different kinds. From the time
the steamer left on its trip up until the
time the tourists were landed iii Spo
kane again thero was singing and music
of some kind almost constantly on some

part of the boat or train except during
the time the banquet was being served.
Then everyone was too busy and hungry
to sing, although their souls were filled
with joy about that time.
The swellness of the banquet sur
prised everyone, and it could scarcely be
believed that such a spread could be
served away in an isolated picnic grove,
and as couree after course disappeared
the amazement of the principal actors in
the drama increased.
After thedinner, while everything was
being loaded on the beat, there was a
half hortr of speaking from tbe deck of
the steamer. J. Hannum Jones was
chairmau. Colcnel Hofer and A. Fisher
spoke and N. W. Durham later read an
able address.
The run back to the lake and to Spo
kane w.as made quickly . and before 7
o'clock. On the train returning some
handsome souvenir menu cards of the
banquet were distributed to all.
At the closing meeting of the Oregon
Association, D. M. C. Ganlt, of Hills
boro.was chosen as the new president ;
Stewart, of Fossil, first vice; Rev.
Fisher, of Portland, second vive; Albert
Tosier, of Portland, secretary ; Baker, of
Troutdaie, treasurer: Noltner. of Port
land, historian, and the retiring presi
dent, Geo. P. Small, of Baker City,
sergeant-at-arms.
Astoria had been previously chosen as
tbe next place of meeting, while the
Washington Association will meet at
Seattle.
The praises of the newspaper fraterni
ty are loud in favor of Spokane and its
citizens, and no doubt the city will reap
its reward in the future, for all will
speak a good word for euch a go-ahead,
lively city.

will be extended to the bereaved hus
band and his children.
Besides a husband and two small

What was probably the last excursion
of the season from The Dalles to points
down the river was taken advantage of
by an unusually large crowd, of our
townspeople yesterday. Fully one hun
dred Dallesitea went down on the early
morning train and the Spokane local to
Hood River, Cascades, . Bonneville and
Multnomah. As nearly all of the camp
ers will return this week, there will not
he as many people take advantage of the
cheap rates in the future, since many of
them go to spend the day with friends
at some of the numerous camps along
the line. Both the 5 :20 and n:ght trains
were so crowded with returning excur
