Snow Cavers
The Dalles
The Dalles, Or., Nov. 21. With
36 inches of snow on the level and
sleet falling, all of eastern Oregon
Is shut oft from the outside world
by one of the severest storms this
section has ever experienced. Five
trains, both east and westbound,
were snowbound between The Dal
les and Portland. A big snowplow
left The Dalles this morning, fol
lowed by a wrecker, to attempt to
clear the way. The wrecker will
also carry provisions for passen
gers on the stranded trains.
Livestock in all of eastern Ore
gon suffered from the early storm,
which started Friday night and
has continued without let-up ever
since. The only source of com
munlcation for eastern Oregon Is
ny way of Spokane, where one
wire was still holding. The Dalles
seemed to be the storm center, as
Madras reported only a small
snowfall, with rain. Bend was iso
lated. All trains on the North Bank
were stalled. Six miles of poles
between here and Portland were
reported down, both telephone and
telegraph.
The storm has done thousands
of dollars' worth of damage to cat-
ue ana sheep men. thev said. Vnii
calves were yet on the range and
the storm came so suddenly that
there was no chance to herd them
in. It was expected that vast num
bers of cattle will starve unless
there is a thaw in the near future.

history of the industry in this re
gion.
