The census of 1900 gave The Dalles a
population of 35G7. These figures were
a disappointment to many as the popu
lation was generally estimated at not
lees than -1000 and not infrequently as
high as 5000. And the fact ia these
estimates would Beein to be justified in
a large measure hy two considerations,
namely the school ceneue, and the fact
that the population of The Dalles waa
much smaller in June, when the national
ceneua waa taken, than in February
when tiie school census waa taken. '
Of late years every fall eees a consider
able number of families settled in the
city to get the benefit of the schools.
In June moBt of these people have
moved back to their farms where they
usually spend the 6ummer months.
Now the number of children of school
age belonging to this district, whose
homes are within the limits of Dalles
City, as shown by last month's census
of District Clerk Gavin, ie 1342. Multi
ply this number by 4, a very conserva
tive estimate, and we have a population
of 5,308. Or take the number of pupils
enrolled in The Dalles public schools
whose homes ure within the city limits,
namely 1,004, and multiply thie number
hy 5, the ordinary estimate, and we
have 5,470. Doth these results may be
too large, but making every reaaonab'le
allowarite in the world it can hardly be
doubted that the population of The
Dallea at this time is probably a thous
and more than the national census gives
us credit for.
It may be interesting to tome people
if we add that the whole number of
children of school ago in The DalleB
district is 1,170. The total enrollment
in the public schools, as shown by the
city superintendent's report, is 1,114.
The estimated enrollment in private
schools ia 150, making a total enrollment
of 1,204.

THE Y. M. C. A. MOVEMENT.
A Frlniltof the Cauto fllvttR II In Opln
ton fti to Wlir the Movement
Failed Lait Year.
Editor CitiioNici.K :
Dkau Sin: In Monday's paper I no
tice an article under the head of "That
Y. M. C. A. Movement," in which the
writer aaks what has become of tho
movement that was started hero last
summer to organize a Young Men's
Christian Association, and then goes on
to say, very truthfully, that it is a
"shame and disgrace that a town tho
size of The Dalles has not a public place
where a young man of limited means
cm spend an evening in innocent plear-
ure or in occupation that would promote
his mental and physical well being."
Ho further says that "it ie with pro
found a jrrow that I contemplate spend
ing the remainder of my young manhood
in a town that furnishes no better pleas
ure resort for young men than a saloon
ihe writer, as well as numerous
others in this city, has seen the need for
a number of years of a Christian organi
zation for young men, and last spring,
after realizing the beneficial results from
the Students' Literary Club, concluded
that by applying expansion and by add
ing a portion of the regular Y. M. C. A.
work, we could do a great deal more
good, morally aa well a9 physically,
than under the old regime. According
ly a number of enthusiaatic gentlemen
interviewed all the religious and tomper-
ance bodies in the city, and were prom
ised a "hearty co-operation" in any
movement pertaining to the welfare of
young men, some of whom were already
a source of anxiety to their parents.
Aa yor. already know, the Y. M. C. A.
movement waa put on foot under the
most favorable circumstances. Commit
tees were appointed to confer witb the
D. C. & A. C. to see what arrangements
could be made with them for floor space,
use of gymnasium, etc. The proposi
tion made to them waa promptly voted
down, and perhaps rightlv. Then dif
ferent businesa men were interviewed
with a view of obtaining their financial
assistance and advice. They were near
ly all willing to help financially ; "money
was scarce," but they would help a lit
tle, providing the young men took hold
and placed the movement on its feet
f without their assistance.
Ll tie young men rallied to the work,
lected a board of directors, a president
nd a secretary; bought a baseball out-
it; elected a captain and organized a
earn. Sunday afternoon meetings were
hen arranged for, and for a few Sun-
ays they were very successful. Then
'the young man that the writer believes
wrote the article in your issue of tho
ISth, suddenly found out that hia girl
did not enjoy life as he would like to
have her while he was attending tbo Y.
M. C. A. meeting helping to convert
souk to the cause of Christ, bo he ex
cused himself on the grounds that he
"had an engagement" and could not
possibly be there. It was the aame way
with the majority of the few that had
pledged themselves to this work. A few
married men remained faithful to their
charge; tho balance were passing pleas
ant hours on the hillsides picking but
tercups and dairies, and converting, or
trying to convert, a few members of the
fairer sex to their peculiar way of think
ing; and it must have been pleasant, ae
tho writer haa cause to believe. Tho
"nectar sipped from tho lips of blush
ing maidenhood" ia eweet enough to
cause the fall of any but the most stead
fast. Consequently that part of the
program came to a finish. (The Sunday
afternoon meeting of the Y. M. C. A., I
mean. The other, I presume, is going
on yet.) The boys were too buey ; it
waa apring tiaie; tho meeting were for
young men alone, and tho meetings
must go over till fall. Full came and
still the young men would rather spark
than spend a small portion of their time
in 'helping to improve themselves or
others. They wouldn't mind to dobate,
perhaps, but their Sundays must he
free. Their girls demanded this, and of
course they must submit or their glrla
would loose a reputation due new wo
manhood. Aud bo tho matter stnuds as
it did when tho meetlnga cloied last
epring - simply waiting for some one
with a good deal of time and patience to
take hold of tho thing and make it go
without any practical support.
Now what about tho business man in
this proposed project? Some of tho
wealthiest business men of thia city,
who have made all, or nearly all, their
money in thia city, pisltively take no
Interest in (lie matter at all. not even so
far aa to subscribe for a copy of "Absoci- i
atiou Men" ut fifty cms a year when j
asked to do so. Tney are too pool und I
have no money to apart) to distribute !
that kind of literature, The cause of
the city's young men ia nothing 'o thorn.
Their employed wellare ia only a matter
of their being fober while In their pica
enoe; but us for spending any money in
their behalf, or on behalf of their own
children or their neighbors' children, it
is altogether wrong. They would will
ingly glye to the cause ol spreading the
gospel and providing education and
amusement to the hostB In China, Ja
pan, India and Africa, but not at home;
that is altogether too near.
Now, Mr. Editor, I will tell you what
wo want in order to make this move
ment a success, and what we must have
before wo do any good at all. Wo want
twenty young men who will pledge
themselves to take this work upon their
own shoulders; who will be regular in
attendance; who have the cause of Christ
at heart; who are not so badly smitten
witli the smile and appearance of a
member of the fairer sex but. that they
can manfully ask to be excused in order
to attend a regular or other meeting of
the Y. M. C. A. ; young men who are
willing to work for the oause of Christ
and the betterment of mankind; the
upbuilding of character and all the other
necessities that go to make u perfect
manhood ; young men who are noteisily
discouraged. And last, but not least,
the movement needs the hearty co-operation
and support of evety Christian and
temperance movement in tho city, freed
Trom petty jealousies and denomination
al dillVienees ; the advice and cheerful
support of our business men, whether it
be through their club or otherwise; men
who will take Pendleton, La Grande and
other sister towna of lesser and greater
noto for a sample, and show to these
towna that we, too, have enterprising
citizens and can have of the best as well
aa they.
And then the young men must not
expect too much to start with. We
ought to be satisfied with a littie a
small reading-room, gymnasium, bath
room, billiard-room, including different
kinds of innocent games, and a place to
hold debates, religious exercises, etc.
It has been estimated that $500 would
start the organization, including the
above, furnishing carpets, seats, etc.
It would take $75 a month to run it ; that
Is within our reach, and with a Email
support from the business men and the
proper fees and aupport from the mem
bers, would place the movement on its
feet. Who will be the first to offer a
subscription of $25 for that purpose.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmothers
never thought of using anything else for
indigestion and biliousness. ' Doctors
were scarce and they seldom heard of
appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, regu
late the action of the liver, stimulate the
ncrvoua and organic action of the sys
tem, and that is all they took when feel
