The large cbinook salmon, spoken of yes
terday, was placed on a table in the dining
room of the Umatilla House, and tastefully
decorated witn flowers and plants. It was
the subject of great cariosity to the Pres
byterian visitors thia morning, and very
many expressed themselves as never having
seen such a large specimen of salmon before.
Portland Welcome: There is a narter
published at The Dalles, called the Chron-
tcle which should chaDge its name to
"The Ready Stealer." It not only filches
'. editorials, but most of its so-called locals
from other papers without giving a word
of credit for the same. Kven plate matter
is not safe from the rapacity of the editor.
W. W Rlnlrmumf Mrs 'VYfilnh! the old
. lady who came to this city in search of
her son, Patsy Welch, and subsequently
home in Nebraska Saturday by the coun
ty commissioners of that place. Mrs.
Welch journeyed from place to place in
the hope of locating ber absent boy, whom
she bad been told was in Washington,
' but her. errand was fruitless. The old
lady was trail and feeble and the county
tooK compassion upon her.
We learn that the Portland party who is
attempting nnder the state law to obtain
possession of the irrigation privilega. Clear
lake, etc., of Eastern Oregon, including all
riparian rights about that lake and the
privileges to obtain timber upon adjoining
lands, has made a proposition to the set-
xiers upon tne mgn taoie lanoa to raise a
subsidy of 95000 and secure to them also a
body of lands in view of their intention to
organize under legal authority. Hon.' W.
McD. Lewis informed as that be refused to
endorse any such absurd proposition.
Considerable merriment was created tnis
mornimr bv a kind-hearted Christian ladv
distributing tracts among the ministers in
the office of the Umatilla House. A doctor
of divinity received one on 'The Evil of
Gambling," and a whit a-haired pillar of the
church was given one on "The Sin of Danc
ing." Some of the ladies were the recip
ients of treatises on "The Evils of Tobacco
Smoking and Chewing." "Dram-Drinking
in Saloons," etc. No one doubted the good
intention of the donor; but the subjects tor
missionary work were not weir chosen.
The iittle son of Mr. Lucas Blank died
this afternoon, after having been sick with
diphtheria for the past eleven days." From
Aha firafc rtmA t hi. i i'bpobh A f'airnA Tin
hopes have been entertained of his recov
ery, as the case was one of the most violent
type. Very great precautions have been
taken to prevent the spread of the disease,
: and as the period of incubation may extend
from two to fourteen days, but usually
from two to five, it is to be hoped that it
will not extend beyond its present limits.
The bealthfulnesa of oar climate is such
that no disease has ever become epidemic,
and with frequent use of - disinfectants no
fears need be entertained.
The first section of the special train,
with the delegates to the Presbyterian as
sembly to convene in Portland, arrived in
the city about 8 o'clock this morning, and
.stopped in the city about half an hour.
They took breakfast at the Umatilla
House, and sat down to one of the best
'meals they had enjoyed since leaving
home. At each, plaie was a souvenir -in
the shape of a button-hole bouquet of
flnxwuru ornvn tn thA tr rHpna if Tha
Dalles. A large delegation of ladies and
gentlemen were at the hotel to extend to
ihe visitors every possible courtesy, and
it is a source ot satisfaction thai there was
a general expression of gratitude at the
manner in which they were received by
our people. "Very general surprise, was
. expressed at our beautiful' city, with its
magnificent river front, shaded streets,
grand scenery, and pleasant and attract
ive homes. The remaining sections ar
rived a half hour and an hour later, and
were as cordially entertained.

Jjocauzer: .Nature nas been doing more
for this region for the past month in the
way of irrigation than all . the projected
ditches could possibly do. The rainfall has
been so copious and frequent that the
ground has been kept in tine condition as to
moisture. Good crop, we are asaured, will
be realized this season without contention
over the now irom the mountains. There
will be no quarreling over water, we pre
dict, this season, and we have reason to
believe the crops will be the best grown for
many years.

year-old daughter ot A. J. Cooley, of
vVooaburn, took a dose of etrychmue Mon
day eyening, with suicidal intent and came
near dying. Fhysicians were summooed
and she is now out of danger. The reason
assigned by the young lady for taking the
poison is that she bad a curiosiry to experi
ence the feeling of death.
Grangeville Free Press: Dennis Holland,
while driving cattle along Snake river last
week on what is known as the "Half-moon
trail," discovered the dead body of a man

the trail. The remain of a pack saddle, a
sawed-on shot gun and a silver dollar,

The remains were given decent burial.

Coliett and Ed. Leist, and they were held
to await the action of the grand jury in

engaged, his wife is out washing for his
neighbors, and the poor helpless children
are left at home to care for themselves as

ticeable than the loafer.
Baker Democrat: S. Grier, proprietor of
the Grier hvery stables,' yesterday lost a
valuable horse in a most unusual manner.
The animal was taken to the blacksmith
shop of Jake Clarke to be shod. - After one
shoe had been put on the horse commenced
pulling back and after struggling for a short
time fell to the floor and betoie the rope
could be cut the animal had passed in his
checks. Mr. Clark says that be has shod
the horse for the past three years and neyer
experienced the least trouble with him be
fore. The animal was one of the blacks
which has been used in the stable for a
number of years and was considered to be
one of the finest livery horses in the city.
Albany Democrat: Last night about 9
o'clock William Burnett was getting out
rock at the Santiam mines for the mill,
when a large piece fell on him. striking in
such a way as to cause his death shortly
afterwards; but not bruising him much.
Superintendent Hazelton hastened to Gates
and telegraphed the news to Albany, and
the body of the unfortunate man was
brought to Albany on the 3:30 train this
afternoon. Mr. Burnett was a young man
about 25 years of age, and has worked for
the Albany Mining & Milling Company, off
and on for about three years. He was a
faithful, reliable young man. : His parents
reaide in Reidsyille, N. C, and were tele
graphed at once.
Most readers remember the Jones county
calf case that was in the courts in Iowa
twenty years, and finally determined in its
last phase the past year. It entered into
the social lite, religion and politics ot the
county, ana had it bean a little warmer lat
itude would have resulted in a vendetta.
Two or three cheap calves involve! became
bovine matorns and passed away, but the
litigation over them went on. All the par
ties to the case became bankrupt. The
costs exceeded $30,000. Most of the lead
ing lawyers of Eastern Iowa were at times
connected with the case. Gov. Boies one "of
the latest of them... Iowa papers say the
case is to come no again to determine the
deposition of the costs. It affords rather
an exaggerated illustration ot the results of
going to law over trivial matters. .
In the Astoria Town Talk curio room is a

An Enthusiastic Meeting; at the Court
House Speeches by Hens. W. K
Ellis. JI. B. miller ana Hon. J.
1 C Moreland. -
' F om Friday's Daily.
The meeting at the court house lait night
was largely attended, and the enthusiasm
of the people was at a high pitch. Notice
was given daring the day of the addresses ,
to be delivered, and about 8 o'clock, escort
ed by The Datfea band, Hons. W. B, Ellis,
H.'B. Miller, J. C. Moreland and Judge
Moore, accompanied by several prominent
citizens, proceeded to the place advertised.
The meeting was called to order by Hon.
B. S. Huntington, president of the McKifl
ley club of this city, who, in a very neat
address, introduced
HON. W. K. ELLIS,
Republican candidate for congress in the
second congressional district. He has s
fine presence, and is a clear, logical speaker.
At the beginning he informed his bearers
that he did not intend to discuss issues that
had passed out of the history of the coun
try; but those that were pertinent at the
present. In his remarks on the tariff he
showed clearly where it was a great benefit
to the laborer, and was the means of keep
ing wages much higher than in Europe. He
reviewed the provisions of the McKinley
bill, and its effect upon American indus
tries. It was estimated that the reduction
of tariff on sugar had saved to each family
in the-United States annually $3, and the
tariff oo tio plate was only 1-12 of 1 per
cent. The American people were willing to
pay the tariff on tin to build op the indus
try, which would eventually support thou
sands of laborers, and create that many
more consumers for agricultural products.
In his reference to his opponents, the most
respectful language was used sod nothing
said to give the least offense. He occupied
about an hour, was listened to with marked
attention and frequently applauded. -
Mr. Huntington then called upon the
candidate for supreme judge, -
. JUDGB MOOKB, . ; '
who had stood shoulder to shoulder with
our own senator in the support of the port
age road at the Cascades. ...
Judge Moore arose, and in a few words
excused himself, saying that , he did not be
lieve it was according to the ethica of the
profession for a candidate for a judicial po
sition to engage in any political discussion.
This was proper, and becoming in the gen
tleman, and enhanced the already high
opinion entertained of him by the people bf
this community.
HOS. J. C. MOBBLAKD
was next introduced, and displayed a thor
ough acquaintance with the political issues.
He was not ashamed of the record of the
party, that from 1856 to the present time
had been in favor of internal improvements,
and gave to the country the protection law
of 1856. Everything that could revive in
dustry and benefit the working man had
been done by the Republican party. This
presidential year, the speaker said, all eyes
are turned towards Oregon, and on the 6th
of June every man is expected to do his
duty. Mr. Moreland is a ready talker, and
language comes to him with ease. During
the fifteen minutes that he occupied the
audience paid the most careful attention to
everything said, and evinced their approval
of his statements by frequent rounds of ap
plause. 1 HON. H. B. MILLER,
candidate . for presidential elector, was the
next speaker, and had not said a dozen
words before he had the ear of the audience.
He is a fluent and eloquent speaker, and
has numerous hamorous ancedntes to illus
trate his position on public questions. The
boar, was getting late, and the people were
becoming restless; but notwithstanding
these disadvantages : Mr. Miller, in his
flights of eloquence, often held the ' people
spell-bound, and if his speech had continued
for an hour longer he . would have been
listened to with attention. He went over
the whole ground of the policy of protection
as contradistinguished from free-trade, and
the benefits accruing to the wage earner
from the Republican doctrine. No import
ant issue was in the least slighted, and in
his discussion the subject was handled in a
masterly manner.
This closed the meeting, and after a short
time spent in conversation, the gentlemen
retired to the Umatilla House. Judges

Wasco, Or., May 19, 1892.
Rditor TiMis-MotmTAixua:
Weather very fine.
Times are very lively at present. Ele
tion is close at hand and the political pot is
boiling over.
The W. C. T. U. convention is being
held at Moro. We are told that a good at
tendance is had. A large number attended
from Wasco and. vicinity. This organiza
tion is doing a grand work.
The Republicans held a mass meeting
here yesterday evening. Hons. EL B. Mil
ler and W. R, Ellis addressed the meeting.
Mr. Miller daring the time be was on the
floor took almost every conceivable posi
tion upon the tariff. His statements were
many of them erroneous and his conclusions
almost ' absurd. The Republicans - them
selves were not oyer enthusiastic. There
seated to be a feeling ot disappointment
prevailing the meeting. Mr. Ellis made a
short speech, but be steered clear of politics;
left the history and record of his party un
spoken and devoted his attention to his per
sonal welfare. At the close of Mr. Ellis'
remarks, the chairman extended the privi
lege of making remarks to other candidates
present. Hon. H. S. McDanel being called
for briefly outlined bis position and legisla
tive work if elected. R. J. Ginn was called
for but excused himself. C. J.. Bright be
ing called for responded with a brief ad
dress relative to his position and the plat
form i of the Prohibition party. The meet
ing was well attended, and the results will
be beneficial. : - Reporter.
The Official Government Reports:
The United States Government, after elaborate tests
reports the Royal Baking Powder to be of greater leav
ening strength than any other. (Bulletin 13, Ag.
Dep., p. 599.;
The Canadian Official Tests, recently made, show
the Royal Baking Powder highest of all in leavening
strength. (Bulletin 10, p. 16, Inland Rev. Dep.)
In practical use, therefore, the Royal Baking Powder
goes further, makes purer and more perfect food than
any other.
Government Chemists Certify:
"The Royal Baking Powder is composed of pure and whole
some ingredients. It does not contain either alum or phosphates, or
other injurious substances. Edward G. Love, Ph. D."
" The Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the purest and most
reliable baking powder offered to the public.
" Henry A. Morr, M. D, Ph. D."
"The Royal Baking Powder is purest in quality and highest in
strength of any baking powder of which I have knowledge.

It is a mistake, on the part of onr esteemed
cotemporary that there "is yery little of In
terest in the way of scenery" above the
Cascade. Some of the grandest catural up
heavals on the Columbia is met with east of
the Cascades, and which has often won the
admiration of visitors. We do not with to
detract from any of the beauty or grandeur
of , this great river; but will be corrobo
rated by every one who is acquainted with
the country, that for variety of yiews
grand, picturesque and beautiful the Mid'
die Columbia is not surpassed anywhere on
the coast.

Blaine Will Accept .
Chicago, Kay 19. A special from
Washington to an afternoon paper sajs
Tom Piatt has received assurances that
James G. Blaine will accept the nomina
tion for the presidency if it is offered to
him. The exact nature of the assurances
cannot be learned. It is known, how
ever, they are perfectly satisfactory to
Piatt, and that Clarkson, Alger, Fassett
and others, who held the conference in
Detroit yesterday, discussed them arid
expressed themselves in private as satis
tied with them. There will be no cabinet
officer at the Minneapolis convention.
President Harrison says he does not want
a renomination, wnich could even to a
degree be charged to the influence of
Federal office holders, fie has requested
every member of bis cabinet to remain at
bis post of omcial duty dnrlng tbe con
vention. Furthermore, be has requested
thu assistant cabinet 'officers, tbe United
States marshals, tbe district attorneys,
tbe collectors of customs, the interna
revenue and other Federal officers to stay
away irom the convention. Tbe request
or order, whichever it may be. has caused
no little disappointment in official circles
bere. 'It is also likely to cause a shortage
of delegates at Minneapolis, as many of
those elected are serving tbe government
in some capacity. ,

The Ureat Floods Are Not ITet Over.
St. Louis, May 19. Tbe weather bu
reau reports at midoight that a rise of
three feet is coming down tbe Mississ
ippi and Missouri rivers. This will cause
tbe river here :o nse at least ooe loot
within several days. ' This means tbe en
tire couutry from here to New Orleans
will be flooded, as the levees will not be
able to stand so great a body of water.
Madison, III., a town of 500 inhabitants,
was flooded this afternoon, caused by the
breaking of the Chicago & Alton em
bankment. East St. Louis is now tbe
only town in tbe Awerican bottom not
completely nnder water. Another rise
will inundate it- A mass meeting has
been called in tbe Merchants' Exchange
for to-morrow afternoon to raise funds
to aid the flood suffers. Within a radios
of twenty 'miles around St. Louis, twenty
square miles of land are under water.
Fully 10,000 people are witbont shelter.
In this city.over 20,000 people baye been
thrown out of work by factories being
inundated. Oyer 20,000 head ot cattle
were drowned. Tbe loss will aggregate
millions.

In speaking of the Presbyterians then en

A Hovel Obstructionist.
In conversing with a gentleman the other
day he was surprised to learn that crickets
exist any where except in Kansas, aud to
test his susceptibility of proof to the eon'
trary we publish the following, which will
be substantiated by . engineer, conductor,
brakemen aud passenpers present at tbe
time: "A novel impediment to railways
bas been experienced by trains on the Un
ion Pacific for several weeks past, at and
near Quinn's statiou, forty miles east of The
Dalles. It was caused by millions of large
crickets clinging to the rails, which, being
farmed by tbe sun, furnished a more com
fortable shelter for them, than the cold
ground. For a distanco of nearly three
miles, the large red insects, nearly the size
of a mouse, made the rails look to be double
their ordinary size. The engines of passing
trains when encountering this curious ob-
stiuction would slip their drive wheels as
though tbe track had been greased, and a
freight train trying to back into the side
track at Quinn's was delayed over an hour
on account of the engine's slipping. Every
train that passed killed thousands cf them
and a mass of crashed insects, having a pe
culiar, repugnant odor, covered the lower
part of the engine after each trip. The
encketa have large, reddish-brown bodies
and ivory-colored heads.' They are almost
transparent, have no wiogf, but long hind
legs, which enable them to j laip quite a
distance."
Edward McAvoy, Chicago's "Christian
saloon keeper," ooe of the wealthiest men
io town, was adjudged insane last Satur
day. For twenty-one years, McAvoy con.
ducted a saloon on South Halstead street.
Owing to his system of running his business
he was never popular with "tbe gang," and
royaterers soon came to know him and to
avoid his place. But he had a good trade
and accumulated a fortune. His customers
were made np of moderate drinkers and
persons who had heard of the peculiarities
of McAvoy.and dropped in out of curiosity.
About tbe walls, behind the bar aud on
barrels, were conspicuously plaeed card
board signs with mottoes in big black . let
ters. Some of these were: "Take not in
vain the name of the Lord," "Right wrongs
no man," ''Do onto others as you . would
have them do unto you," "Protanity aud
loud talking not tolerated hero," "Obscen
ity is the outpouring of. low minds." No
drunken man could buy a drink in the
bouse, and he never sold a man a drink
twice in succession. McAvoy nejer tasted
whisky in his life.
Diphtheria is raging at Ella, Morrow
county. There have been several deaths
