Everybody in Oregon knows how in teneely President McKinley is hated by tlio editor of the Oregonian. Mr. Scott, strangely enough, was aidelegate to the Republican state convention. A Dalles delegote tolls that at ono timo when somebody in tho convention was reading a resolution indorsing the admiuietra tion of Mr. McKinloy, Mr. Scott, to the great amusement of the convention, made a rush for the door as if the vory Mischief was after him. Arthur Hodges, who was nominated by the Crook county Repnblicans for county clerk, has been in that office as deputy and clerk for eighteen years. Uncle Frank Nichols, the Republican nominee for treasurer, has been holding that office eince a while after Noah left the ark, and tho Crook county Demo crala have got so used to Uncle Frank's election every two years that most of tho time they cannot get a man to run against him.

It may be remem bered that Dr. Hogan was sent to the asylum from hero about a month ago with symptoms something like those of softening of the brain. The poor man's memory w.-ib a complete blank and the moEt pathetic tiling about it was the fact that lie knew his infirmity aud touchingly begged his friend, Dr. Hudson, to have him sent to some place where he would be taken care of.

The day of the plain pink and baby blue I'.ub gone and the theatrical sou- bretto taa been obliged to discard her regulation "fluffy" short skirt and adorn herself in more pretentious gowns. The growing demands of the lady patrons of the theater for the display of more at tractive dresses on tlio stage has been recognized by managers, and they aro making a bid for feminine trade by ex pending oneidorxl ia eums in tho pur chase of elaborate and costlv dresses.

TT MUMMY STREET, NEW VOHH CITY. when a mortgage contains a copy of the note for which the mortgage is security, a copy of t he mortgage must note on its face the fact that the note was stamped according to law. Nothing can better attest the steady growtii of The Dalles than the fact that at tho end of the preeent postoffice fiecals year, June 30th, The Dalle8 will bo en titled to free mail delivery. This is be yond any shadow of doubt. The cross' postal receiptB for tho pilst nine montlisi which includes all receipts except tlios trom the money order business, aro such' that, receipts from stamps during the next three months, if only a little over half what they were for ihe eoi respond ing months of last year, will make up the full amount required by law in order to ba entitled to free delivery, namely $10,000. Postmaster Riddel! is assurred they will be little short of $11,000. When the year is up lie will get up a petition to be sent to tlio department and have it placed in the hands of the congressman from this district, and there is every reusonable expectation that we will have free delivery before tho summer is ended. The other towns in t lie state having free delivery are Portland, Salem, Astoria and Baker City. The common council met Saturday night mid passed the sewer ordinance. The vote stood five to four. Thoee voting for the ordinance were W. A. Johnston, S. S. Johns, Frank Gunning, Charles F. Stephens and Jas. L. Kelly. Those voting against it were Dr. Shack elford, Fred W. Wilson, Andrew Keller and J. M. Toomey. Tlio ordinance con templates tiie construction of a sewer system below tlio bluir at a maximum cost of $30,000. It is believed, however, that the actual cost will not exceed much more than two-thiidsof that sum, The cost is to bo met by taxing the property to be benefited and the pay ments aro to be made in installcicnte during tho coming months of July, August and September. There is no doubt that the construction of a sewer system of such magnitude and at this particular time meets with strong op position, and no ono will be surprised if the opposition takes active shape. When a man has to go down in his pocket and pay .fli.SOO, tlio amount of one property owner's assessment, which is mentioned only as a sample, it is not surprising that ho should kick, Prcfci!
