with the scenery on the river.
Froni Sherman county the prospects of
a good crop is very encouraging. Hum
mer fallowed grain is above eround, and
the moisture that has fallen has given it
a good growth. Without something un
precedented happens, that country will
yield abundantly next season.

1 The extent of the car building Industry
may be inferred from the statement that
the total number of freight cars in use on
the various railroads in the United States
is about 1.200.000 and that from 120.000
to 140,000 new cars are required annually
to take the place ot those that become
worn out, the average life of a freight car
being from eight to ten years. Besides
there is a constant demand for additional
equipment by the railroads on account of
the increase in their business.
This morning's Oregonian has the fol
lowing: "lieutenant Frederick 3chwatka,
nf Arctic tamp witfl nip.kftd nn m Fintt

had him removed to the police station.
Dr. C. H. Wheeler was called and ordered
him removed at once to the Good Samari
tan hospital. At latest reports he was
still unconscious but the doctors feared
that he was past medical aid."
Pendleton Tribune: Tbe price of cattle
in this county and in fact throughout East
ern Oregon is outrageously low, for the
: amount of cattle there is in tbe country,
and some action onght to be taken by the
stockmen, not only of this section but of
the Eastern Oregon ranges, to protect them
selves from the beef combine that baa been
formed throughout the country. . So long as
the stock raisers parts with his stock at any
price these buyers offer, just so long will
cattle be low. Beef cattle ought to sell for
three cents to-day, yet it is reported that
food beef has been recently selling for
1.75. . "
in any place where competition wins, and
Mr. Phelps will undoubtedly do honor to
his alma mater and credit to The Dalles.
The mystery surrounding tbe suicide of
Mrs. Lombard in Portland, is being cleared,
and the testimony before the coroner's jury
shows that all was not peace and harmony

Some of our fruit dealers are complaining
hat tbe San Jose scale is commencing its
ravages. Now that the trees are bare of

and thia will effectually kill this orchard
pest.
The political meeting at Dufur yesterday

the most harmless playthings in the world.
Moro Observer: On Friday last two men
traveling on horseback stopped at the bouse
of W. F. Guyton, of Kent, and asked to
have a meal prepared for them. There was
no one in the house at the time but a young
lady and she furnished the travelers with
the desired meal. After the men had par
taken thereof one of tbem banded the young
lady a five dollar bill out of which to take
pay for tbe refreshments, and she went into
ber bedroom to procure change. Ine fel
low sneaked into the room after her and
without her knowledge, and while she was
handling some siiver and notes, to the
amount of $40, he suddenly snatched the
money out of ber hand and he and his com
panion skipped out. Tbe parties are said
to have headed in the direction of Arling
ton. We have since learned that two men
are wanted by the authorities at Eugene for
stealing, and it is barely possible they are
the same men who perpetrated the robbery
at Guyton's.

' for a number of years, steamboats ascend
ing the Yamhill river. The sound of the
steamboat whistle would be familiar
music to many of them. The work now
being done by the government employes
in removing obstructions ought to render
navigation as practicable as before the
advent of the railway, when the bulk ot
the local traffic was carried on by water.
While it is not probable that water trans
portation will be adopted tor the bulk of
local business, it is quite probable that
boats will ascend frequently during the
winter months.

Arrested Por Grand Larceny.

Late Monday afternoon Deputy Sheriff
John Smails arrested John B. Wallace,
agent of the Hastie Lumber company of
Puyallup, on a warrant charging him
with the crime of grand larceny.
About the first of May, 1892, Wallace
purchased $M)0 worth of lumber from the
Hastie Lumber company and started a
lumber yard in this city on the vacant
lot, corner North Fourth and Oak streets
His venture proyed very successful, when
the Hastie company appointed him their
agent here. 1 he company supplied Wal
lace with several carloads of lumber and
made arrangements through a bank in
Puyallup whereby he could draw upon
them for money to settle the freight bills
on the lumber shipped to Walla Walla.
Wallace soon built up a good business
and the company continued to supply him
with lumber, but during this time Wal
lace failed to send any money to the com
pany. This state of affairs continued un
til several weeks ago, when the lumber
company suspicioned that Wallace's man
ner of conducting business was not alto
gether right. The bank of Puyallup then
sent an agent to this city to investigate
the matter. He arriyed here several days
ago and called upon Wallace and in
formed the gentleman as to his business.
Wallace turned the books oyer to the
agent, who made a thorough examination.
He found that Wallace had disposed of
about $2200 worth of lumber, but his
bank books failed to show what disposi
tion had been made of the money. It
was also discovered that siuce the 1st of
August no record whatever had been
made of the lumber that had been sold up
to the time the books were turned over to
the agent of the bank. These facts were
made known to tbe company and also to
Wallace, and when the latter was con
fronted with them he was unable to ex
plain what he had done with the money,
with the exception of about $600, which
had been paid to men employed in the
yard to handle the lumber. This left a
balance of $1600 due the company. When
the facts of the case were made known to
the company, they offered to compromise
with Wallace by taking a mortgage on
some land owned by him on the Sound,
but he was not inclined to do so. Mr.
John Hastie, of the company, arrived in
the city - Monday and soon afterwards
swore out a warrant against Wallace, and
he was arrested and taken to jail. .

Wanted for Murder.
A man named Dick Miller, who has
been located in the vicinity of Helix for
some time past, is wanted in Kootenai
county, Idaho, says tbe East Oregonian,
far tbe crime of murder. Wednesday
the sheriff froni that county visited He
lix . and took Miller in custody. Little
cpald be learned of the particulars of the
:rime, which was committed last Septem
ber. There were two men camping on
tbe banks of .a creek, and Miller is ac
cused of killing one of them with a pistol
be- bad borrowed and throwing bis body
into tbe stream.. It is supposed the deed
was 'done witb motives of robbery, and
that considerable money was obtained by
Miller from tbe person of the murdered
man. Tbe officer has returned to Koote
nai county with his prisoner. The where
abouts of Miller were learned by tbe cap
ture of his accomplice at Pasco. This
man was one of tbe two campers, and
connived witb Miller in tbe murder of
bis companion. On his person when ar
rested were found letters from Miller,
giving bis address. This being learned
it became an easy matter to find him.
Miller was employed for John Rush, wbo
resides in the Sand Hollow neighborhood.
It is thought now that the fellow bad a
scheme in view for making away with
Mr. Rush when opportunity offered. ,

Death of an Arotio Explorer.
Lient. Frederick G. Schwatka died at
Good Samaritan hospital, Portland, yester
day, from an overdone of laudanum, taken
by himseif to allay pain. ' He ia well known
over the world as the person who discovered
in 1873 in the Arctic regions definite data
regarding the fate of Sir John Franklin, and
for this was honored by medals from Paris
and irom Russia. Lieut. Schwatka was
born in Galena, 111., in 1849, and came to
Oregon with his parents in 1853 In 1867
he was appointed to a cadetahip at West
Point, - and graduated therefrom in 1871.
He was appointed second-lieutenant of cav
alry, and was stationed several years in
Arizona. : In 1875 be was admitted to the
bar in Nebraska, and in 1876 received his
medical degree from Bcllevue Medical col
lege. On the 19th of June, 1878, he started
on his celebrated journey in the Arctic re
gions, and returned on September 22, 188
having discovered and buried many of the
skeletons of Sir John Franklin's party, and
removed much of the mystery surrounding
his fate. The past few years be has de
voted his time to travel and authorship, and
from his pen ' has been published "Along
Alaska's Great River," "Nimrod in the
North," "Tbe Children of the Cold,"

1UL HEBHABH'S SPEECH.
1 ' From Wednesday's Daily.
Tbe court house was crowded last night
to its utmost seating and standing caprcity,
and by the time the speaking began there
was no more space tor listeners, uea oy
The Dalles baud the speaker, accompanied
by several prominent citizens, about half
past 7 o'clock, walked to the court room,
and there several enlivening strains were
played before Mr. Hermann took the plat
form. Oregon has never had a representa
tive in the lower bouse more popular than
Hon, Binger Hermann, and when it was an
nonnced that he would address the citizens
of The Dalles it was presumed that he would
be greeted by a huge and entbusiastio audi
ence. -
He was introduced by Mr. B. S. Hunt
ington, and from the beginning to the close
claimed tbe attention of tbe audience. On
the improvement of the Columbia river he
explained the difficulties ' that had to be
overcome before the work could be changed
to the contract system, and expressed the
hope that in a little while the commerce of
this great empire would float unobstructed
to the ocean. In the matter of the public
domain he explained how the Republican
party had stood as che steadfast friend of
the settler, and had accomplished more in
the forfeiture of unearned land grants and
in reducing the price of these lands so the
minimum than any other political organiza
tion.
The great issue of the tariff was ably
bandied bv Mr. Hermann, and he gave bis
bearers substantial fscts on which to base
an opinion. There is no controverting the
fact that Republicans stand on this issue on
tbe only solid basis, and Democrats do not
attempt to argne against tbe position assumed
On tbe financial question Mr. Hermann
stated the position of tbe party iu a logical
manner, and gaye reasons why Republicans
consider themselves as occupying the only
tenable ground. The' present financial policy
had been inaugurated by the Republican
party, and it saved the nation from bank
ruptcy when a great national debt had
threatened to eugulf it, and had placed it
on a more solid basis than it bad ever en
joyed.
Mr. Hermann was frequently applauded.
and Undoubtedly be left the audience more
firmly grounded in the principles which un
derlie the Republican party.
