In the circuit court today, in the case of Mercedes I'addock vs. Fred E. Pad dock, a decree of divot ce was granted to the plaintiu", who wus represented by Xed Gated. Tlio defendant did not ap pear. The pUuntitr was allowed to re sumo her maideti nnme of JJrigham. Wo know of one farmer up in Linn county, huvh a Salem paper, who has rented his gruin laud and is devoting his time exclusively to tho poultry bubi ncps, with the aid of incubators and brooderH. Ho expects to make more money on his ton or fifteen acres which ho reserves, in the poultry business, than lie formerly made on his whole form, and with lossduidgery and worry. A fow days ago the city treasurer sent to Now York tho sum of $5,500, all the money there was in the city treasury, in part payment of $20,000 bonded debt ol the city that fell duo March 1st. The city has aeked for an extension of time on the deferred payment and will doubt less get it, as the bonds bear 0 per cent interest nnd, had tho law allowed, the debt could hnvo been refunded resontly ut 4 per eont. ThoStudents' Literary Club met last night iind discussed the question: lie solved that capital punishment ought to bo tibolishod. At tho close it was ro eolvcd to discontinue the meetings of the club till next tall. It was nlfo de termined, uh an appropriate close to the winter'e work, to give a banquet to the members and their frieuds, and next Monday night in Keller's hall wan fixed upon as the time nnd place. After np pointing committees to make the neces sary arrangements for the banquet, the tiimttlnir ndiuuriied. Tho program of entertainment in connection with the bnnquot will be published later. Tub OhuoxiciiB is iudebted to tlio Portland "Bureau of Publicity and Pro motion," whatever that may be, for an urgent invitation to be preseut at tho reception tliut will be tendered Hon. W. J.

A front seat on a Bryan Platform, facing tho "magnificent conclave" that the "Bu roau of Publicity nd Promotion" eo hopefully expects would turn tho K)or thing's head.

Tiik CiutoNici-B Bald yoBterday, speak ing of A. 8, Blowers, Republican candi date for county judge, that if he were beaten in tho race It inuBt be by Re publican votes. Lot no one read any thing betweon the lines, The Chuon ici.K is not dreaming of any candidate being beaten by Republican votes, let alone Mr. Blowers, who is one of the strongest men ou an unusually strong ticket. On tho contrary, Mr. Blower6 will get the full strength of his party and that is all lie needs. But mark this prediction: If the opinion of Mr. Blowers' friends in flood River is worth anything, that gentleman will come up from there next Juno with the largest Hood River vote ever given to any candidate for a county office. Dr. BigasDr. McGifiert and all their school of Biblical critics profess even greater veneration for Christianity than they had before theyaESailed its author itative and dogmatic foundation, says tho New YoikSun; but none tho lees they have set out to destioy nil the evi dence on which its supernatural claims aro based. Men will not believe that a hook is the special word of God when they nre taught to distrust it as full of human error and limited by tho capaci ty of tlio human mind to discover truth ; when they nre told by echplaie, in whose authority they repoEe confidence, that the documents of which it is composed are of n doubtful authenticity or author ship. Of course not. The greatest battle in history of the supernatural re ligion is before us. unless tho churches aro prepared to surrender to the enemy in advance of hostilities. Tho ofh'ce of justice of the peace in The Dalles was for many years quite a nice little snap for those who held it. Tlio income may have been overesti mated, but it is reasonably certain that lor years It yielded to its possessor all tlio way from $1200 to $2000 a year. From various causes it has fallen till at present no man can ail'ord to All tiie-of- llco nnd nav olllco rent unless lie has, Homo other Bource of income. This will probably bo doubted by many and be n surprise to more, but here aro the figures as compiled from Mr. Bayard's books by tlio present justice, Mr.Timo. thy Brownhill. Since July 1, 1898, when Mr. Bayard took office, till date, M0 civil and G9 criminal cases were ad- indicated. The avorogo feop, according to the justice out of these cases, Mr. Brownhill estimates at $4.23 each, or a total for twenty months of $440.25, or an average of $22.30 a uiont h. Deduct from this $10 a month for rent and you see ivh.it. n idutoeratio income a Dalles justice of the peace has. From Jack Tunney, of Antelope, who arrived in town yesterday, wo learn that ranid orcgress Is being made on bulla Iiiks and other works in the now town ol Shaniko. About 100 men are employed on tho various works. Tho offices of tho townsito company and that of the projfeted paper, the Slinniko Illlhee, which comprise one building, were ready for tlio roof. Tho foundation was being laid for the big store of Pease & Mays, and Bolton & Co., of Antelope, were having lumber hauled for a big rival store. Report had it that a third party, from the valley, would put In still another general merchandise store. Representative Jones is co-operating with Representative Moody, of Oregon, in nn effort to secure the passage of the bill known as the double minimum re funding bill, says the Washington cor respondent of tlieTacoma Ledger. This is a measure that was left as a legacy by the late Senator Dolph, of Oregon, and the man who succeeded him, Senator McBride, has been pushing it every ses sion that he lias been a senator from that state. Dolph succeeded in passing it once through the senite, and once he failed on account of the opposition of certain Southern senators. McBride got it through tlio senate with a good deal of coaxing, and it is now "up to" the house members to get it through it they can. It is very hard to get a meas sure of this kind passed, beciujc it will require the refunding of u largo sum of money from the treasury. There is no question as to the justness of it, because the men who paid this money were com pelled to do so when they took land within railroad limits. The roads were not built, the land was forfeited to the settlers, and years after men came in and took the forfeited lands at $1.25 an acre, whereas the pioneers paid $2 50 an acre. Mr. Jones and Mr. Moody make a very good team, and if anybody can got the bill through they can. This is about the first time that the Oregon and Wnshiugton members in the house have worked together so hard for any one measure, and they may be more success ful than others have been before them. An Apology to the I'rees. The Dalles, March 29, 1900. EDITOll CHItONICI.i: '. There is possibly an apology due to the representatives of the press from having a committee who were not nest to themeelves on such work, or, as is more probable, from the short notice and the indefiniteness ns to who was pushing tho excursion and what was expected making it somewhat embar rassing. But we werewilling to give our time and money and take such blame as one always gets on that kind of work, rather than that the representa- fives of Astoria should think that we, as a town, were not courteous. I will further say that I am safe in saying thpt had any volunteers come forward and insisted on it they could have had the job, and if those, who nro in any way dissatiefied, will forgive us, I for one will promiire, as I have 20 times before, not to go on a soliciting committee some more.
