Th3 Dalles Dally Chronicle. SUB8CBIPTION FB1CE. One week One month....... One year 15 50 .... 6 00 "WEDNESDAY - - - MARCH 15. 1899 DEVELOPMENT OF THE WEST. For- generations the theory of thinking men bus been that the Pacific slope would eventually be the com mercial center of the" world. They estimated the time required to work the change would be centuries. Re cent events, however, have set the movement going with great rapidity, and while it may be several genera tions before the predictions of com mercial supremacy are realized, the fact remains that the greatest trade current of this or several centuries now has its trend directly toward the western slope of this continent. The eyes of the world are on the Pacific nort-jwestern states. New and wider markets are the need of the civilized world. Wuh .America it is becoming an especially pronounced need. Overproduction has been the cry throughout, this nation. The United States possesses the raw material, the mills and 1 factories and the skilled labor, but these did not save them from passing through a prolonged and depressing period of commercial inactivity from which they are now emerging. . But with another i evolution of the cycle of trade such another period may come. Those new markets are to be bad in Asia and the countries that border on tho western limits of the Pacific. The imports of Japan, China, British Australasia, British India and the Straits Settlements amount to about a billion dollars a year. More than half of this is composed of articles that can be produced in and exported from the United States. The larger percentage of such imports can best come from the Pacific northwestern states. The opening of the Pacific markets is at hand. Add to the possibilities of trade with those countries and the in creased market they provide for agricultural and manufactured prod ucts the immense mineral wealth of the Pacific northwest, the timber, the ability to build ships, the best of the few harbors on the western shore of the continent and the numerous transportation lines, and you have a land certainly strangely and mar velously blessed. Is it any wonder that when, last week, the various transcontinental lines offered excep tionally low rates of passenger fare from the east to Pacific northwestern states, eastern people were quick to avail themselves of those rates and are swarming into this favored region in great numbers? " The east is awake to the possibili ties of the west. Here is a significant item from the Chicago Chronicle of last Wednesday: "Over 300 homeseekers and specu lators left ' Chicago yesterday for north Pacific coast points. It was the largest movement of this class of passengers in the history of the rail Toada, and it was due to the boom expected on the western coast ' be cause of . the acquisition of the Hawaiian and Philippine islands." Spokesman Review. Bobbed the Grate, . A startling incident, of which Mr. Jihn Oliver of Philadelphia, was the sibjtC!'., Ia narrated by him as follows: "I was in a rnott dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eves sunken, t tngue coated, pain continually in back id eidee, no appetite gradually grow ing weaker day by day. Three physi cians had given me np Fortunately, a triend advised 'Electric Bitters' ; and to my great joy and surprise, the first .. bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their nse for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them.

When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken oat and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces. .
