A correspondent from Riparia on Snake
river, write to the Yi alia W alia Statesman :
"Thethermome.er stands at 82 and it is
snowing now, but lightly. The coldest
weather here this winter so far was 14 be
low freezing and three inches of the
beautiful. No snow on the ground now,
nor ice in the river, and there has been
nothing to retard navigation, only the
' want of business. And as there seems to
be more of everything else m circulation
than cum and truth, there is no prospect
of much busines;, except as I understand
' that the Union Pacific company intend
putting a new hull on the steameMfntote,
in the course of human events.'
' The Democratic press are trying to
create a revival in business by publishing
encouraging reports from ail portions ti
the country, aud we hope they may be
successful. The following is from the
Tomahawk, at Portland: "'The mercan
tile agencies, Bradstreet and Dusa, whose
trade reports generally tell the real con
dition, . have found unmistakable evi
dences of an improvement in commercial
affairs. Their conclusions are derived
from a consideration of the many fac
tories that are resuming operations. This
is the only gauge that mea sures the situa
tion correctly. It now points and has
pointed tor several weeks, toward pros
perity. Depression is disappearing."

An (at tern paper talks aslid sease in a
maaaer that should open th eyes Of busi
ness men: Certainly, when trade ia moat
needed it behooves tbe merchant to maks
his grestest efforts to obtain it; and if he ia
using medium that have proved them
selves valuable aad effective in prodneiag
return when basins was brisk, h sbsnld
coutinne using those medium when it is
dull; and if any change i mad in the
amount ef advertising dene, it should le in
tbe direction of increasing rather than
diminishing the same. He would thus, in
stead of adding to the panicky fooling, im
press the reader ot his announcements with
some ot his own confidence ia the value of
bis good, and serve to bring to an end the
period of depression, snd hasten the return
of confidence in the eummunity and normal
conditions of trade.

C-ndidates for admission to the United

west the board will meet at Fort Snelling,
Minn.; Fort Qouglaas, Utah; tbe Presidio,
San Francisco; San Dieo barracks, Calif.,
aod Vancouver barracks. Wash.
Thia from an exenange is not creditable
to the skill of tbe buntrrs ef the town:
'A lone deer attempted to oross Mam
street in WiUapa one day last week, and in

guns. Dashing through them, and escaping
the ahuwer ot bullets, it sprsng into th

it sank. When the body wa pulled ashore
it wss found that not a shot hit it, death
baving enaned either from frigbt or exhaus

The following is the philosophic manner
in which the editor of the Arliugtun Record
takes a matter that is very annoying:
"The bushel of' corn article we published in

Record credit. Tn Peodleten Tribune

very brilliant article after all our trouble
to figure it out."

Drexel, who waa educated for the position,
and the publisher ef the paper for aeyerai
months. He is a young geutleman in
wrom Mr. Childs took a meat affectionate
interest. It waa decided when ne waa born
that b was to inherit the Ledger, and tber
waa prevu ion in tbe will ot Mr. Drexel
that in case of tbe death of Mr. Childs, his
interest in the paper should be purchased
by the Drexel estate.
From Mr L. B. Boltoa, of Boyd, who
gave ue aa agreeable eail to-day, we learn
that snow is on the ground from Five Mile
te his heme, in sntfioieut quantity to give it

waa frozen quite hard this morning. It ia
so wet that little plowing oan be done at

every farmer will be buy preparing the

favorable fur cattle, aad livestock et all

A good story about a lawyer is going the
rounds. It seems that a tramp was indicted
for stealing a watch. He was arraigned
and p'e.-derl not guilty. Having no counsel
and. beinj witbout funds aud a total
stranger, tho court assigned his defense to
the attorney in queation. Tbe tramp was
ls guilty as a man ever was, but ss tbe at
torney wss young in practice and desirous
of grinding off some of his wire edges
sgainst the district attorney he accepted
tbe task.
Nothing daunted, the young attorney
rese before the jury to sum np hi case.
Providence had endowed bim with a tongne
capable of almost anything. He had bis
address at his tongue's end and the manner
in which he reeled it off established his
name in the community in characters ss in
effaceable as tbe rock-ribs sn old Gibraltar.
He held the "twelve men tried and true"
apellbouodi They gazed at him in open-
mouthed wonder. Alternately they laughed
and cried, and people in the audience fol
lowed their example. It is said that it took
the jury just eight minutes to whitewash
the tramp and provide him with wings
and a halo. Tbe verdict was for acquittal,
Tbe tramp, so thoroughly surprised and
overcome with emotion that he could hardly
spsak, rose from his seat, the tears stream
ing down bis cheeks. There waa stillness
in the court room. "Mr. Lawyer," he ex
claimed, brokenly, "you don't know me
an I don't know yon. I-I-want te thank
you, I-I-ain't get no money but but here's
that watch."
A Eomatio Eeyelation.
If there are two gentlemen named Alex
ander and Oscar McClelland living near
Milton, or in any other part of Umatilla
ounty, they abonld correspondent witb
Samnel L. Dwight, of Centralis, III. Tbe
former is about 68 years old, the latter 30,
Tbey are supposed to be engaged in sheep-
raising, perbaps under assumed names.
Alexsnder McClelland formerly owned a
farm near Centralis. About two years sgo
a party residing there bought this fsrm,
movsd onto it, snd in cleaning up and fix
'ng it, among other things cleaned out and
deepened an old pond that had been on the
farm for 25 years, and in doing so found
tw human - skeletons. An inquest being
held, the evidence ten led to proye that
tbey correspond to the two missing Mc
CMIanda, and that thev had been in tbe
pend tome 10 or 12 years. Both skeletons
were staked down in the pood, and bore
every indication that the parties hsd been
murdered. There is an effort being made
towards faatening tbs a fair upon an older
son of Alexander McCleUaod, who resides
there, so says th Wei-tin Leader.
Mr. Dwight is counsel for the son scoised
ef the murder, and is anxious tb have the
matter cleared np.
The Beet Industry
The beet sugar faetory at Lehi, Utah,
closed tor the season December 2fltn, after
a continuous run ot one hundred days of
twenty-four hours each, cutting up 26,800
tons of beets, consuming 4676 tons of
coal, 1100 tons of lime rock, 7328 bushels
of coke, 38,800 double sugar bags, besides
numerous other incidentals. It averaged
over 300 tons of beets each twenty-four
hours, producing 3,877,110 pounds of
sugar. The beets were harvested from
2700 acres by over 800 contractors, pro
viding work for 3000 people. During the
run 136 persons worked in the factory
and yards, and 100 others with teams
About 1500 cars were received and . for
warded from the factory. These figures
show what might be accomplished in
.Wasco county it the attention of farmers
was turned to the cultivation ot beets
Aside from ' ouing a remunerative crop
the factories would furnish employment
to labor, and send a large amount ef
money in circulation in the commnuiiy
If the Wilson hill passes, and the bounty
ls taken a ay from tbe manufacture of
sugar, the industry will . in a certain
measure be crippled ; but if it csn man
age to live until goed Republican times
come again, it will be a great factor of
development in many communities..

The wster snpply of Antwerp is draw
from the river Nithe, and is purified by
passing water through cylinders containing
iron tiling. The water which leave the
river i the filthiest imaginable. After fil
tration it ia abaoluti y pure both chemically
and visually. The experience of Antwerp
is a practical illustration of the principle
laid don by scientists that eootajt with
iron removes by far the most daagerooa
p-upertiea from contaminated water. Thai
experiments hays shown that by this means
tbe percentage ef organio matter is reduced
from 46 to 85 per cint; of a'.bominoid am

Tbe foregoieg I a reply to a communi
cation in onr co temporary, the contents we
have not read, aod will explain itself
Mr. A. S. S. Pirant Care of Chronicle.)
Yours at band. I ouce knew a whole
family of "Pirants," but none with the re
markable combination of initials you sport.
Possibly you were christened on account of
tome marked characteristic peculiar to
yourself. At soy rate I am pleased to bear
from yon.
Y u have shown an intelligence in dis ov
er n tbe hidden meaning nf my "am
ti ioal artiule" that does credit to you, ir
your advisers. A hidden meaning which I
had not even gaesaed, but can plainly aee
aince von have pointed it out. It ia won
derful the talent you display in that like.
S ich talent must eventually be rewarded.
and if jeu devote yonr time to it muat cer
tainty place yon the fi. at representative of
the "Pirant" family in the new asylum at
Uuion.
Yuu say "tha mountain labored and
brought forth but little." It did I yon are
rixht. It brought forth almoat "nothing"
on the Chronicle's editorial page, toe.
" 'Keno' ahould know what everybody else
in the county knows." Of course, he does !
sverybody, who reads yonr letter, knows
that "Keno" must have trampled on yeur
pet corn at sometine or other. Aod there
is another feature ot the case, also, that I
am not ashamed to have eyer y bed y in the
ceuntv know, and will tell if you make
your true name known i. e. Why I tread
oa yonr cor.
Don t worry thst great brsm ot your
guessing what my object waa in "rushing
franotioally out at thi time." It was
wholely to haye a little amasemant with
seme rap-head like yourself, who den t evea
control hi i own vote.
There was positively not tbe slighest in.
tention to intimate that anyone in Da fur
had a knife for anyone; and, if it wis taken
that way by an v body, it waa because a
depraved courmence caused each persoa to
believe that Llnfur ought to knife a certain
olass, ahould the Republicana be so unfort
nnate a to put them on the ticket, on as.
count of Mr. Batch's treatment two year
ago
Mr. Balch wa beaten because be lived in
Dufur. and "Keno" assisted iu his defeat
by net falling in line at the convention.
Mr. Balch was aware of the fight about to
take plaoe before hia nomination, took the
sbaaees. made a fair tight and loat. Ne
man haa ever heard him sxpreas a regret.
All talk of knives bas com from those who
ned thm on him.
On account of th money wasted during
the past campaign, and the Democratic
times we r experiencing, Mr. B. is nnable
to purchase the support of such Republican
as yourself, aad consequently will, as you
say, net be a candidate for anything thi
year; but Dufur baa always given a straight
Republican majority, and will do a next
lection.
So fsr ss I am personally concerned I am
a "Republican" in every sense of t .e word,
and as such believe in no "Diotator," nor
never will. I defy say man to show an in
stance where my tight in convention haye
not been to "break a slate," and net to
make ene. I have but few real "friends."
aad I am proud of them; bnt am much
prouder ef the enemies I have made. ''
M. J. Anderson, ("Kino").
P. S. While I was under an assumed
name you also had the right to u e one m
aa attack on ms. If you reply to this ths
honor of being termed a gentleman will
force you to. use your own name.

a regular use of Ayer'a Pills. He says: "I
was feeling sick and tired and my stomach
seemed all out of order. I tried a number
of remedies, but none seemed to give me
relief until I was induced to try the old relia

box, but I feel like a new man. I think they
are the most pleasant and easy to take of
anything I ever used, being so finely sugar

Tontine Funds Jeopardized as a General Surplus Available Tot, Expenses.
'.Tontine is a system of forfeiture under which a liability is convertible into a delusive "turpi nj," as under the Teatiae
system the LIABILITY (for deferred or confiscated dividends withheld injpool esteniibty for the benefit et persistent sar
vivors) is not only IGNORED; but this Tontine Fund is included in and unjustly jeopardised with the geBsral
surplus, and is also available for expenses. The enormous expenses of the Toatine companies s
below, and the . great disappointment experienced with the results of the first drawing
of the Tontine lottery, prove not only this, but also that "Toatine is
more available to excite hopes of legitimate gains
. than it is to fulfill them."
