treasury. '. '
We acknowledge the compliments of
the Second Eastern Oregon District fair,
to be held in this city, beginning October
10th. This promises to be the most suc
cessful exhibition ever held, and we hope
it will receive liberal local patronage.
A notice posted on the door of a sus
pended eastern hank read: "This bank

Hon. F. P. Maya returned from Wallowa
county Sunday morning. While there be
visited hia brothers Polk and Benton, and
assisted in the prosecutions of some cattle
thieves, who were convicted of the crime
and sent to the penitentiary.
The Soyder building on Front street is
being thoroughly repaired, and will soon be
in good shape. After the tire, in which it
was considerably damaeed. its sbanelesa
rnins has been an ungainly sight It la to
be hoped that the half-bumed structure
will no longer be a sad commentary on the
enterprise of The Ual.es.
There were twenty carloads of cattle
shipped from R. xfi. - Saltmarshe & Go's
stockyards this morning for Troutdale.
Our facilities as a shipping point are be
coming widely known, and, perphaps,
there are more cattle, horned and other
wise, shipped from this city direct from
the pasture, than any other point west of
the Rocky mountains.
Steps are about to be taken toward the
construction of a fish ladder at the falls
of the Willamette at Oregon City, for
which the last legislature made an appro
priation of $10,000. Governor Pennoyer
and Treasurer Metschan will make an
investigation of the piemises, in connec
tion with U..8. Fish Commissioner Mar
shall McDonald.
A letter has been received from the chief
of the United States coast and geodetic
survey, Washington, D. C, statute that
Mount Orizaba, Mexico, is the h ghest.
It reaches into ttae olouda 18,313 feet, while
Mt. St. Elias only tonches the mark at 18,
015. We are sorry, but the two mountains
of Oregon and Washington by these figures
are over shadowed, and Hood and Rainier
must be considered simply hillocks in the
fatnre.
After hiding its face behind murky
' clouds all day yesterday, the sun came
oat this morning as bright and smiling as
a young bride. Cloudy and rainy days in
Eastern Oregon make our citizens appre
ciate sunshine, while, if all skies were
blue and all days bright and clear, the
difference could not be appreciated. Va
nety is conducive to a proper enjoyment
of the weather, as well as it is to the art
istic delineation or a landscape. 1 dons.
The estimated crop of wheat tributary
to Athena, in Umatilla county, 1b 716,000
bushels. This will sell at 35 or 87 cents,
which wjll bring into circulation about
$250,600. The harvest of grain in Wasco
may not be as large, but the price quoted
for some time has been 45 cents a bushel,
' which shows that farming in this and ad
joining counties, by reason of the advan-
- tages of river shipments from The Dalles,
is much more remunerative than farther
in the interior.
At the funeral of Mr. William Alljsoo,
at Hood River, last Sunday forenoon at
10 o'clock, there were eight Odd Fellows
from this city who intended to be in the
- funeral procession, but one by mistake
was taken further down the road. The
members of Idlewilde Lodge, I. O. O. F.,
attended as a body,and there were a large
no ruber of friends in the line of march
to the grave. Mr. Allison was a highly
respected citizen in that community, as
well as a honored member of the frater
nity named. -
We have received with the , compli
ments of the Oregon Farmers' Alliance,
Oregon Knights of Labor, Oregon State
Grange and the Portland Federated
Trades Assembly a pamphlet - entitled
through pie Initiative and Referendum,"
by J.- W. Sullivan. It attempts to applv
to the institutions in this country the plan
adopted in Switzerland, and furnishes ar
gument to support lis position. While
we do not endorse the doctrines advo
cated, in this free country, there should
be no restraint in any regard upon the
expression of opinion.'
In the house at' Washington Thursday
wnen juotiea, cnairman ot the public
lands committee, got the bill through to
indemnify settlers for . money erroneously
paid the government, Wilson, representa
tive from Washington, said he would not
oppose the bill, bat he hoped that McKae
would soon report a bill to indemnify the
settlers along the Columbia river for
money paid for lands at double the min
imum rates. These lands were upon the
grant to the Northern Pacific. This por
tion of the road was never built and the
lands were subsequently forfeited. Wil
son says McKae's bill establishes a pre
cedent which will allow the Columbia
river indemnity bill to pass.
From the Salem Independent it is
. learned that two young ladies, riding in
the Swan lake pine woods last Sunday,

and did not scream or taint Finally they
came to a fence surrounding an enclosure,
- and, after passing through the gate, the
lion gave up the pursuit Alter it was
over, and the young ladies realized the
danger they had passed through, they
were badly frightened. But Oregon girls
never give up when the emergency e
quires nerve and pluck.
The Statesman says: Oregon moss is
about to redeem itself for all that has
been said against it A new industry has
recently developed at Salem which prom
ises not only a valuable factor in itself,
but an important matter for the railroads
and shippers. The day has come when
Oregon moss will enter into a new era.
Already has a large amount been put in
use. A company in Fresno has already
ordered a largo invoice of Oregon moss

There is quite a content in the wheat
market in this city, and prices have ranged
from 47 to 50 cents a bushels. The highest
price paid was yesterday: but we under
stand it was lowered this morning, and the
top price quoted was 46 cents.
With the amount of wheat produced in
the county daring the late harvest busine'S

and will be the means ot great enjoyment.
A man named Perry McQuean, who
chased a lawyer through the streets of Al
bany with a revolver drawn Monday, was
arrested and examined for insanity, and wa
discharged. Our Albany cotemporary
thinks this was not evidence or an nnbal-

know what conclusion would have been
drawn had he chased an editor or preachsi
in the same manner.

Thos. Edison has figured out a solution to
the financial proulem. He would discard
both gold and silver as worthless, and
make wheat or iron, producta representing
labor and wealth, tbe backbone of our
money, issuing wheat and iron certificates,
the same as gold and silver certificates. He
also suggests compressing a bushel of wheat
uto a dollar, stamp it and circulate it. If
one gets hungry he can soak his dollar and
eat it
We fully endorse the following from the
Union Scout: "A few acres of hops, with
a sprinkling of hogs and cattle to eat up the

An Oregon Memento.
A communication was received by th6
recorder during the week from the Astoria
chamber of commerce in reference to pre
senting to the warship Oregon, which will
be launched on or about Oct. 26, 1893,
suitarie ana appropriate memento, as a
token and expression of appreciation of the
honor conferred. It stated that the cham
ber of commerce wonld appoint a committee
of five, and also invited the several cham
bers of commerce, boards of trade, city
councils and other state organizations and
also prominent state officials to co-operate
with them in procuring tbe necessary funds
for the purchase and presentation of said
memorial. Tbe organizations mentioned
were recommended to send one delegate to
a convention to be held in Portland, at tbe
Portland Hotel, at 10 o'clock, A. M , Oct.
7th for the purpose of carrying out this
object. This communication waa read be
fore the council last evening, bat no action
was taken on the contents.
The Cascade Seserre.
The Cascade range forest reserve, created
by presidential , proclamation, includes a
strip of country extending all tbe way
across tbe state of Oregon in tbe north to
Crater lake'in the south, 250 miles long and
30 miles wide, embracing 4,500,000 teres.
Tbe reserve is set apart nrincioallv to nro
tect timber and water supplies, though for
tbe present it shuts off all entries for settle
ment thereon. It is probable however that
it may be opened for mining purposes should
mineral wealth be discovered. A similar
proclamation was also issued setting aside
"Ashland reserve," also in Oregon, having
an area of 20,000 acres, and calculated par
ticularly to protect the water supply of
Ashland, Ore. The reserve in the Cascade
mountains will not interfere very much with
settlers, as it covers mostly the summit of
the mountains, where growth of all kinds is
stunted, tha best timber being on lower altitudes.

of Francis M. Tomlin, introduced by Mr.

wanted to make easier the passage of the
bill providing for the repayment of the
excess of $1.25 per acre paid for the dou
ble minimum lands within the limits of
the grant to tbe N. P. By. Co., since for-
eited. The obvious reasons foi charging
double price ($2.50 per acre), were tbat
the building of a railway would enhance
the value of the lands along the line to
that extent, and that by selling the evtn
sections at that price the government
wonld lose nothing by its grant to tbe
railway of the odd sections. There was
an implied contract between tbe govern
ment and the settlers. On the one band
the railway was to be built, and on the
other double price would be paid for tbe
land. Tbe settler fulfilled his part of the
contract, but the government, through
the failure of tbe railway company to
build the road bas ' failed to do its part.

Dead at His Mine.
Baker City Democrat.
It ia onr sad duty to chronicle tbe death
of James Hazen Summers, which occurred
on Gelena mountain, near Seven Devils,
some time within the last ten days. Mr.
Summer was born in Kentucky, near what
is known as tha Crab-tree orchard, some 56
years ago, and came to this coast as a boy
in the year 1851. He followed mining in
California for years, and ' then packing
through l'laho in 1862. lie was a pioneer
of pioneers,and discovered the Galena mine,
on the mountain so called, which is north
west of Salubria, and may thns be said to
be the father of prospecting on the property
belt, on which Mineral City and Ruthburg
now stand. He was also the discoverer of
mineral in the Summers district, and this
gave to prospectors the data through which
the camps at the head of Bear oresk, Hilie
band and Curran were established How
much he did for civilization, in making set
tlement on the frontier possible, cannot be
estimated. He was an Indian tighter all
his life, but, like most of tbe vanguard, liis
work and ita benefits inured to other. He
was found dead in bis camp, and it is im
possible to tell how long since be expired.
A short time ago he moved to his mine,
about eight miles from Ruthburg, where he
wan found last Monday by Steve Lamb, ly
ing on the ground about thirty foet from
the tent. So passes away one ot a type of
men which are too nnoommon. Brave, fear-,
ing nothing hut the upbraiding of hii own
conscience; honest, his word was as good as
tbe oath of tbe best; humane, hu services
were ever at the disposal of need, and it is
sad to think that be thus passed away with
out tbe ministering hand of his fellow-man.
Perhaps it is the death he wished to die.
He chose a nomadic life and pnrsned it to
the end. While not being attached to any
church, he believed in an Overruling Being,
and "for dotv" right by his felloa-man was
bis watchword.

'Woodmen's Sooiable.
The sociable at Fraternity ball last
evening was a very agreeable event, and
attracted very many visitors aside from
tbe members of Mt Hood Camp, Wood
men or tbe World, and' tbeir families,
under whose auspices it was given.
Lieutenant Advisor C. H. Brown, of the
order, introduced the programme by de
livering the address of welcome, and this
was followed by a rendition by the man
dolin club, which was well received.
Then little- Miss Kreft was introduced,
and gave a recitation in excellent voice,
and was loudly encored. Hon. D. C. Ire
land, of the Wasco uu,being called upon,
responded in a very pleasing style. He
was loudly applauded at the close, and
his remarks were very befitting the occa
sion. Music by the mandolin club fol
lowed, and this was rendered in the usual
excellent manner. A song by Miss Myrtle
Michell was in good time and tune, and
won the applause of those present This
ended the programme of literary exer
cises, and all were invited to take seats at
the table, on which a bountiful 1 neb was
spread. This part of the entertainment
whs duly appreciated, and it was pro
nounced as elegant refection aa was ever
enjoyed in this city. The chairs and ta
bles were then removed from the floor,
and ihe merry dance was indulged in un
til 12 o'clock. This was tne first of the
monthly sociables to be given by the
Woodmen this year, and if others are
patterned after the one last evening they
will be very popular.
