Cascade shocks. .
Says the Oreqonlan: Major Post, United
States engineers, who hss the work at the
Cascade Lock under his supervision, rays
tbat there is work enough there to keep a
large force ot men employed. If 10 feet
more were built oo a portion of the lock
walls, about 80 feet in length, work could
be continued until the lock chamber is com
pleted. He thinks the contractors have an
tioipated .the June rise, and discharged a
large portion of their forces before It waa
necessary to do so. The water is nsw going
down and it is quite- probable will not be
high ensogh to prevent operations for some
time. ' Tbe June rise is some time distant.
and tbe probability is tbst there will be op.
portunity to get a large amount of work
done before it takes place. Major Post
will endeavor to have operations resumed
on as large a scale as is advisable and as
soon as practicable. '
Jnot Before tne Battled.
Last night until a late hnurtbe Uma-
tilla House office. and billiard room pre
sented a scene of tbe greatest animation.
Tbe delegates had arrived from the dif
ferent precincts, and candidates were In
terviewing them. Every available chair
was occupied, and groups stood in com
pact order in the rooms. To see the bust
ling throng from tbe outside reminded
one of former days, when times were
flush and business was lively. This hotel
has been political headquarters for both
parties for many years, as it has been for
other exciting events daring the history
of The Dalles. One feature in connec
tion with tbe convention, as ascertained
trom tbe delegates, is commendable, and.
tbat is, no pledges have apparently -been
given to any candidate-
Proaecnttna; Attorney,
We bave it on hearsay tbat savors of
good authority that Hon. K B, Dufur, of
Tbe Dalles, will try sgaiu for the offioe oi
prosecuting attorney of this, the seventh
judicial district. The Democrat eoold not
make a better selection. We hope Mr.
Dufur will receive tbe nomination believ
ing, as we do, that .be will bave an excellent
show this time of being elected. Prineville
Neut. As the Republican nominee for
prosecuting attorney wo bave heard the
name of Mr. A. A. Jayne, of Arlington,
mentioned, and a better cboioe could not
be made, Mr. Jayne ia" an able lawyer, and
well qualified to fill the position. If Mr.
Pufur is his.' opponent, there will be two
good men in the race; but) the dittrict is
Republican Mr. Jayne will -very likely be
elected.
