There is a movement, on foot to have
a 4th-of-July celebration in this city,
and tois-should receive every encour
agement from our citizens. The Dalles
has not celebrated the national holiday
for Several years, and in 1895 there
should be such a celebration as would
jnake up for apparent past negligence.
The river has been constantly rising
for the last few days, and today markeo
28 feet 6 inches above low water mark.
There are no' fears of high water, and
. this rise is considered by some the last
" and the highest of the season. There
is verv little snow in the mountains.
and it does not appear possible that
the river can reach the 1894 mark.

WHY NO IMMIGRATION.
Oregon la Not Properly Advertised by the
Railroads.
The reason why Oregon is not re
ceiving her just proportion of immi
gration is given by Mr. S. T. Boyd,
first assistant general passenger agent
or the Kock island road, who is visit
ing Portland. ' Mr. Boyd states that
there is a noticeable improvement in
business in the east, and local travel
on all the railroadB has materially in
creased. Little through business to
the coast is being done, and emigra
tion is turned principally to the south
west, particularly to Texas, to which
state a great many harvest excursions
are being run. " "We ran a harvest ex
cursion train the 21st of this month,"
said Mr. Boyd, "on which there were
300 passengers, and if other roads have
done as well on their excursions, you
can see the result must have been a
considerable immigration to the south
west. That section has been widely
advertised by the railroads and worked
lor all the business it can give, were
Oregon as hard worked, you would
have as large an immigration, and the
boom times of a few years ago would
return. I think If the Denver and Og-
den gateways were opened to the trans
Missouri lines, it would nave a great
influence in the direction of immigra-
do something in that line if we had in
gress to the northwest from Denver."

Back to Tale.
La Grande Chronicle.
The news comes from Yale, Malheur
county, that the officers of that county
nave made the successiui arrest oi a
cattle thief by the name of Renfro,
who has been wanted since last fall on
a charge of cattle stealing. The ar
rest was made at Rocky Bar, Idaho,
and at the time , of the serving of the
warrant about sixteen head of horses
were in Renfro's possession, fourteen
head belonging to people living in
Malheur county.
Keniro la tne man wno killed .Nor
wood, near Vale, about eight years
ago, but who was acquitted or the
crime. Ever since the commission of
the murder he has borne an unsavory
reputation. Last fall he gathered up
a band of cattle, among them milch
cows belonging to people living in
Vale, and drove them across Snake
river into Idaho and sold them. The
officers have been hot on his trail since
then, and his capture is a great source
of satisfaction to the people of Mal
heur county.
A boy, who was in company with
Renfro at the time - the officers over
hauled him, is also under arrest and
both are now in jail at Vale.
something unusual for the season, be
ing cool and windy; but this did not
debar very many from visiting the
cemetery early in the day, and spread
ing their floral offerings on tne graves
of loved ones who had passed to the
silent shore. The wealth of flowers on
graves signified that the dead were not
forgotten, and that their remembrance
was kept constantly green and sacred.
Loving hands and hearts entwined
wreaths around tombstones, and cov
ered the sod above the inanimate re
mains of those who slept in the narrow
chambers of the dead with choicest
flowers, and in this way the day was
rendered doubly hallowed and holy.
The living are our daily companions,
and one day in the year we can profit
ably devote to those who have passed
to the silent shore and bend silent and
thoughtful over the buried founts of
memories, recalling incidents and
words of those who wove tendrils
around our hearts and souls, the sev
ering of which cost many pangs of
poignant pain and remorseful regrets.
At hall-past 1 o clock the procession
was formed in this city in the order
mentioned in Wednesday's issue, Co.
A of Wasco taking the lead, followed
by Co. G of this city, and the hospital
corps under command of Lieut. Die
trich, these formintr the escort to mem
bers of the Grand Army and Women's
Relief Corps. The military were un
der the command of Col. G. T. Thomp
son and staff of the Third regiment,
mounted, and in this order, followed
by a large concourse of citizens in
carriages, they marched to the Odd
Fellows' cemetery. The militia made
a very imposing appearance, and
worthy of especial mention . was the
company from Wasco, which is com
posed of fine appearing, soldierly men,
who have paid close attention to mili
tary maneuvres and have won high en-
coniums trom drill masters. The ranks
of the old veterans are not as full as in
former years, some having answered
to the last muster roll, while others
have become too debilitated by age to
make the toilsome march through the
sand to the resting place oi their com
rades. The teolumn arrived at the
cemetery, and with military precision
took seats in front of the stand. The
marble shaft erected in memory of
those who had answered to the last
roll call was properly entwined with
floral wreaths, and above it the old
flag floated at half mast. Mr. J. M.
Patterson read the proclamation of
the grand commander and introduced
the ritualistic exercises. After prayer
and singing, each member ol the U. A.
R. deposited a floral offering to the
memory of a fallen comrade. The
singing was rendered by a select choir,
and the songs tended to awaken mem
ories of departed heroes. After the
services of the ritual were finished,
Miss Russell gave a recitation, Which
was well executed and appropriate to
the occasion. The soldiers and citi
zens then marched back to the city,
and the ladies of the Relief 'Corps en
tertained the members of the Grand
Army and A and G companies with a
bountiful lunch in Fraternity hal!.
This was done in a very creditable
manner, although the Relief Corps
had attended the ceremonies at the
cemetery and were undoubtedly weary
and tired.
After 12 o'clock the city had the ap
pearance oi Sunday. Flags were at
half-mast, and all places of business
were closed. As memorial day of the
dead of the armies of the union it was
sacred to all patriotic citizens, and as
a day set apart to the memory of loved
ones it was hallowed to those who have
friends and relatives sleeping in nar
row chambers of clay. The 30th of
May thus becomes a day of remem
brance to all, and all classes and con
ditions of our citizens can devote one
dav in the vear to the lovinsr memorv
of the dead.

hit the ground in such a way as to giv
his hios a terrible wrench. He was
discovered shortly afterwards and
messenger was sent to Antelope for
help. A hack was sent out for the in
iured man immediately, and he is now
lying in bed at the Occidental hotel,
under Dr. Pilkinrton's care, and will
probably be all right again in a coupl
of weeks."

Oregon's Arable Land.
The following is a nortion of a speech
delivered at the National Geographical
Societv on the resources of Oregon:
"The state contains more than 25,-
000,000 acres of arable land. The Wil
lamette valley alone contains o,oow,uuu
acres. The whole arable area is
greater than the one-half of the entire
area of the six New England states.
Over 10,000,000 (or about one-sixth of
the whole state are covered wun ior-
ests. the creator Dortion as masrnincent
and valuable as anv in the world of
like species, the balance of the state
being mountain grazing and desert
lands. the latter of which can be nearly
all made highly productive by irriga
tion."
Cattle Shipments.
From the stockyards of R. E. Salt-
marshe & Co. in this city there were
shipped thirteen carloads of sheep to
Chicago and one to Portland last
night. The day previous there were
twenty carloads sent east over the
Union Pacific road. The shipments
bave wonderfully increased during the
past lew weeks, and this win be the
means of sending money in circulation
in this community and helping pro
ducers to bridge over these times of
depression. The Dalles is the great
center of trade of the interior north
west, and sellers and buyers come here
to transact business.
Poison Oak.
It takes a cohnoiseur to tell poison
oak from Oregon grape, and an inci
dent happened in this city where the
result of ignorance in this matter
proved quite serious. Just outside of a
beautiful garden in The Dalles a green
growth was noticed, and the housewife
with a natural love of flowers watered
and matured the plant. It grew and
bloomed, and together with fragrant
roses it was placed in a button-hole
bouquet for the husband. The ap
pearance was very artistic, and after
brushing his clothes carefully, the
wife thought her husband made the
most artistic appearance of any gentle
man on the street. The blending of
colors was perfect, and the buttoniere
added very much to the good looks of
the lord of creation. The sequel fol
lowed in a few days, and the face of
her loved one looked as though he had
passed through a dozen Donneybrook
fairs and had felt the effects of well
wielded shillalehs. The moral is easily
outlined, and this particular house
wife will no longer mature and care
for a plant that may prove poisonous,
Grecian fable (said a peasant once
warmed to life in his bosom a frozen
snake. All is not gold that glitters,
etc,
The Microbe In a New Role.
Microbes as a class bave been so
roundly abused that the discovery of
the fact that we can not altogether
get along without them induces a cer
tain sense of satisfaction. A Russian
professor has been taking great
trouble to determine the value of nat
ural functions. He fed animals on
food that had been carefully sterilized,
and compelled them to breathe germ
less air. The experiments proved that
the presence of microbes is necessary
to digestion. The animals soon
showed the effect of the deprivation.
First, they began to droop, then lost
their appetite, and finally weakened
and died. - It was found that the food
simply would not assimilate when the
microbes were absent. This series of
experiments has been extended to the
vegetable world. It is now proved
that certain plants can only assimilate
the nitrogen which is necessary to
their growth through the action of the
microbes that live at their roots. "
The Wool Market.
For some ' time ' wool has been
arriving in the city in limited quan
tities; nut during the last few days
the product arrived in unprecedented
quantities. Until recently no buyers
have beeu in this market; but they are
now bidding on th.e clip, and prices
are opening' very encouragingly. We
understand good quality of wool has
been sold for 9i cents a pound, and the
poorest has received 7J cents. This is
much better than last year, and prom
ises an increase of two or three cents.
With wheat appreciating in price and
wool increasing in value, the producer
may feel encouraged,
OreKon Nurseryman.
The fifth annual association of nur
sery men of this state, of which Mr.
Albert Brownell of Albany is secre

THE SALMON BUN.
Freaka of the Festive Salmon In the Mid
dle Columbia.
The fishing season opened on the
10th of April, and very few bave been
caught in wheels or nets yet. It is
difficult to ascertain from old fisher
man what induces salmon to swarm in
the middle river. Some consider it
the temperature of the river, others
the stage of water, and there is an
opinion current that they only visit
this portion of the Columbia at certain
years every fourth or: fifth. In 1890
there was a heavy run, and in 1894 the
heaviest ever remembered. If this
last conjecture is true wheelmen must
wait until 1898 before they will enjoy
such a season as was experienced last
year; but little credence is given this
notion of salmon making periodical
visits. Last year the run was not
large until after the 2d of June, and
fishermen of a sanguine temperament
are looking forward anxiously to next
month, when they live in hopes that
wheels will be crowded and the two
canneries now in operation will be
kept busy to their full capacity. After
the flood last year there were no means
of transportation either east or west,
and the abundant run did no one any
good. This year the roads are open
l both directions, and-there are two
canneries. If the succulent salmon
comes along in June - in large
numbers they will be taken in out of
the cold and wet, and they will furnish
a desirable means of revenue. Sev
eral new wheels we're erected this
Spring, and there needs be no appre
hension that the hordes of fish will be
allowed to pass the city unmolested.
Accident Near Antelope. - '
The Herald says: "C. W. Lewis, one
of Ed Rondeau's sheep shearers, met
with a painful accident last Thursday
morning, which will lay him up for
some time. His crew had just finished
shearing a large band of sheep at Salt
Springs, and he started to ride to An

when, on account of a sore mouth, the
animal reared up and caused its rider ,

A Proposition to Change the Name of the
First Day of the Week.
The first day of the week should
be called Sonday in honor of him
in whose remembrance the day is
celebrated.
A large class of our fellow citizens,
notably the Protestant Episcopa
liana, even now prefer to call it "the
Lord's day" rather than any other
name, and this is the shortest way
to express and utilize their prefer

Our Lord said, "For the Son of

The Sabbath is part of his heritage,
and therefore really is the Son's day
The day used to be called this in
old English times, when the word
was spelled ' "Sonneday, " and it was so
called in old German, where, ever
and anon, the day is found spelled
'Sobenday.

where tne ore goo was also wor

But in either case the name Sun
day is heathen and ought not to be
tolerated in Christian lands.
It is true that Christ is the "Sun
of Righteousness." according to the
prophet Malachi, but the reference
of the origin of the name of Sunday
to the worship of Bel, or Kan, or the
sun, is so imbedded in the language
that an attempt to twist the name
Sunday into a reference to the "Sun
of Righteousness," and thus make it
applicable to oiessian, would be a
hopeless task.
The calendar ought to be reformed
now no less tnan in Julius Caesar s
time reformed as to the daily no
menclature. so that the weeks shall
no longer perpetuate the remem
brance and power of heathen deities
which are devils, but shall be made

Saturday of baturn, and so on. All
these names ought to be consigned
to limbo, and other and appropriate
names should be given to each day
of the seven in a useful attempt to
unshackle men's minds from the
domination of false notions.
And yet the new names ought not
to be too great a departure from the
present accepted nomenclature, for
the people t-ould not easily learn and

-- Inraltds and Gambling. '
Too many invalids are given to
gambling for the purpose of amuse

Florida, Colorado or California on
account of climate, who leave home,
friends and business on account of
their health, who'' have anxious
friends, or probably some relatives,
who are hoping for all or some bene
fit from the change, cannot defeat
the object of their trip in any more
certain way than by a resort to gam

pended in this pastime. It tells on

deadly effects of these conditions,
added to the nervous injury incident
to gambling, are sufficient to wreck

Infected Hoteia.
A well known physician recently
published an account of the experi
ence of a patient at a so called health
resort. Here is a part of the story:
"The patient in question was suf
fering only from overwork; his fam
ily history was dear, and there was
no tuberculosis to be traced in his im
mediate kin or among his ancestors.
He went to a health resort at a high
altitude to recuperate. He boarded
at a hotel in which numerous con
sumptivea were coughing and expec
torating; four months afterward he
developed tuberculosis and now has
a typical case of pulmonary phthi
sis. ' The unfortunate condition of
these resorts is that there is, as a
rule, no system of disinfection of the
rooms, verandas, hallways, etc.
"The patients are allowed inmost
hotels to expectorate where they
choose, without restriction. The re
suit is that germs are scattered broad
cast in the buildings and outside of
the grounds. They become dry and
are scattered in the air and inhaled
by those exposed. Thus a health re
sort which in the beginning may
have been very effective in combat
ting consumption becomes after a
time a veritable center of infection."
