Tne popuust claim that they are being counted out in a number of counties, the canvassing boards being under the control of their opponents Whether or not there is any founda tion for this claim, it is very likely Mr. Ellis' election will be contested. - Notwithstanding the attractive ap pearance of the many fish wheels and traps that are distributed along the river,' the royal 'chinook refuses to be intlced into their meshes, consequently salmon is as scarce as winter butter in ttjis marfcet, and the canneries are lying idle. . - . ; Mr. Benzer's bakery at the old bar racks had a narrow escape from being destroyed by fire last nieht. The soot la the flue burned out, setting fire to the shingles of the roof, and only for the timely action of by Mr. Benzer and his neighbors the entire building would have burned. One can have little idea of the amount of wool that is handled In The Dalles without visiting the different warehouses. A T.-M. reporter went through them this morning and found - stacks and stacks of wool everywhere. There is already in the neighborhood of 4,000,000 pounds stored in the differ ent warehouses, and there is probably that much more to come. Today two parcels' of land in Hood river valley were sold ai Sheriff's sale. One was to satisfy a judgement In the : ease of J. B. Huntington vs. Andubon .- and Linus Wlnans, and brought $1,400.

' . - The river readings at 11 a. m. today are as follows: .Umatilla, 21.2; Wen atchee, 28.8; Lewiston, 10.8; The Dalles, 35.5. This shows a very slight rise in the past 24 hours, indicating that the river has probably reached its highest stage. . Snake river has no doubt reached its highest, and as it recedes the rise of the upper Columbia cannot bring the lower river up to anything ' approaching a freshet. The strawberry, crop is still back ward about ripening. Wednesday night something oyer 100 crates were shipped to Montana. The rain yester- ; day morning interfered with picking. and pickers were not put to work till late in the afternoon. Prices In the - Montana markets remain good for Hood River berries. At Butte they were selling for $7 a crate yesterday, In some early localities the crop was Injured by the frost and cold rains, but on the whole the crop is better than for several years. The prospect is good for prices ruling as high as they did last year throughout the season Glacier. Oregon congress of women convened in Portland at 10 A. M. today.

Did you ever think how readily the blood is poisoned by constipation? Bad blood means bad health and premature old age. DeWitt's Little Early Risers, the famous little pills overcome obstinate constipation. Snipes & Kinersly Drug Co. At 11 o'clock today the river read ings were: Umatilla 21.3, a fall of 1-10; Wenatchee, 21.. stationary; Lewiston, 18.6, a rise of 2-10; The Dalles, 36.1, a fall of 2 10. This indicates that the water has reached its highest point at this place, and may be expected to stand stationary or fall within the next few days. A. L. Wooster a prominent citizen of Osseo Mich., after suffering excru ciatingly from piles for twenty years, was cured in a snort time by using DeWitt's Witch Hazle Salve, an abso lute cure for all skin diseases.

He has a large collec tion of watches, jewelry, etc., that was put up as security for the payment of fines imposed upon three sons of the for est who had violated the laws of the city by over-indulgence in fire water. In some of the western states, where women rule the roost in politics, old standards have had to be revised. An Oklahoma newspaper, for 'nstance, re cently sent this order to a supply house: "Please send us one small cut of a hen. Women carried the election here, and I suppose we will have to swing out a hen instead of a rooster." Young mothers dread the summer months on account of the great mortality among children, caused by bowel troubles. Perfect safety may be assured those who keep 'on hand DeWitt's Colic & Cholera cure, and administer it promptly. For cramps, billious colic, dysentery and diarrhoea, it affords instant relief.

Harper, of the Umatilla agency, says the Indians are making preparations for a Fourth of July celebration on a grander - scale than ever before. They propose to eclipse previous efforts, and bring out an en tertainment which will surpass the wildest d reams of the tenderfoot, and make him think his imagination is a piece of useless mental machinery, says the East Oreg-onian. It will take the Indians about 15 days to get through with their Fourth of July enthusiasm this year, and the Fourth itself will see only a beginning. Major arper says the Indians count him in as one of their own number this year. Hu is to ride in their gorgeous procession, gaily decked with the trappery of an Indian brave, and painted eight or ten colors. He will be an animated rain bow, and his place in the cavalcade will be right up in front, with the high men of the tribes. Visitors are ex pected from the Bannocks and Nez Perces, and more Indians will attend this year than have ever been present on the Umatilla reservation on such an occasion. Immense quantities of food will be provided by the enter tainers, and general powowing will be held by all. The Indian horse races will be exceptionally good, and will take place on days succeeding the Fourth. A Compliment From Boston. H. M. Drew, a traveling salesman for the mercantile house of Wra. F. M.iyo & Co. of Boston, was in the city recently taking an order from A. M. Williams & Co., when he suggested to Manager Williams that they step out and get a cigar. Acting on the im pulse they walked over to Geo. Ruch's grocery and called for his best cigar. Mr. Rucb at once set out a box of the Regulator brand, made in this city by O. A. Peterson. The cigars were lighted, and they were returning to Mr. Williams' store when the drummer re marked "that is the best cigar I have smoked for a long time, I will have to lay in a supply of tbem." He at once returned to Mr. Ruch's and bought a box for his own use, and was surprised on being informed that they were made here in town. Many of our people seem to think that because a cigar is made at home it cannot be of as good quality as if it were shipped in from abroad. The inconsistency of this notion becomes apparent when they stop to consider that it is just as easy to ship in fine leaf tobacco as it is to ship in fine cigars and considerably cheaper, for j the freight is less. This Boston travel- ! ing man, who has a chance to sample all kinds of cigars, and who had no foolish prejudice to bias his decision, at once pronounced the Regulator to be an exceptionally fine cigar.

For more thau two hours the storm raged on the mountain before it spent it3 fury, and abou'- dark, the rapid rise, floating deb ris and extremely muddy condition of Canyon creek announced the begin ning. ' Before ten o'clock the already large volume of water had been in creasea to twice the amount and it was spilling over the levees and enter ing the slreets at a fearful rate. It coutinued to rise, bringing down trees and heavy timbers, and about 1 o'clock a heavy log struck the county bridjre and wrtcked it, and part of it went down stream Then the horrible clang of the fire bell called thosp who were slf ep ing, and appraised them that danger was imminent.

There is encamped on the beach in the eastern part of town a widow and five small children, who are deserving objects of charity. Some time since they left Yakima with wagon and team. supposing tney had sufficient means ana provisions to make, their way to Corvallis, where tbe lady has friends, but misfortunes' overtook them on their journey, and tbey reached The Dalles in destitute circumstances. without provisions or money with which to procurj them. A kind hearted gentleman learned of their misfortunes and rendered them suet; assistance as he could afford, but the charitable people of the city could well afford to extend to them a little aid, helping them along to the end of their journey. A Pioneer Gone. One by one the pioneers of the north west fall before the sickle of time, and their ranks are being thinned out almost daily until there are few indeed left to relate the events of hardship and privation incident to life on this coaBt during the early settlement. The last to be stricken from the roster is Mrs. F. X. Paquet, who died at the home of her son, O. L. Paquet, at Oak Grove, Wasco county, last Satur day, aged 86 years. Mrs. Paquet was a native of France, and was a member of one of the lead ing families of that nation. After her marriage to Mr. Paquet she came to America, residing in St. Louis until 1852, when, with their family of six sons they emigrated to Oregon, settl ing In Willamette valley, living nearJ Moore, continued.

"Pray," the preacher suggested. Eut the emer gency of tbe case demanded mp'e ef fective warfare. Therefore the men said "dam it," and instead of sitting helplessly and hopelessly down and praying the men went to damming as well as praying, and between the earnest prayers and the substantial dams and dikes most of the submerged property was saved, and thus the good people's prayers were answered. The weather turned cooler, but the waters subsided slowly, owing to the melting of tbe immense snow drifts that the rain fell upon. All danger appears to be over now, with proper vigilance along the levees, unless there should again occur heavy rains and cloud bursts like those of last Friday. Can yon City News. Land Transfers.
