It is yet too early to form any cor
rect estimate of tbe damage done to
wheat crops in Wasco county by the
recent hot weather, still it is evident
that growing crops have not been
nearly so badly damaged as was feared
for a time. Considerable, of the early
wheat has been shriveled, but farmers
in some parts of the county say they
will have some first grade wheat, and
their yield will be up to the average.
Those who are well informed estimate
that there will beat least two-thirds
an average crop harvested in the en
tire county.

Goodell Fruit Line-, was in tbe city

flattering, wheat having been more or
less damaged by the hot weather. As
to politics, Mr. Weatherred said In all
sections where he had been since the
Chicago convention, he could hear
little except Bryan and free silver.
He thinks Bryan will make a clean
sweep of Oregon, Washington, Idaho
and Montana. -
After meals you should have simply
a feeling of comfort and satisfaction.
You should not fee! any special indica
tions that digestion is going on. If
you do. you have indigestion, which
means not digestion. This may be the
beginning of so many dangerous
diseases, that it is best to take it in
hand at once and treat it with Shaker
Digestive Cordial. For you know that
.indigestion makes poison, which
causes pain and sickness. And that
Shaker Digestive Cordial helps diges
tion and - cures indigestion. Shaker
Digestive Cordial does this by
providing the digestive materials in
which the sick stomach is wanting.
It also tones up and strengthens the
digestive organs and makes them
perfectly healthy. This is the ration
al of its method of cure, as the doc
tors would say. Sold by druggists,
price 10 cents to SI. 00 per bottle.

THE PROPOSED FBER BO AD.
Practical Koute Viewed Out Across IM-
chutet Leading to Prineville.
County Surveyor Goit has returned
from making a preliminary survey of
the proposed free road leading from
Dufur across Deschutes and on to the
Orook county line. The main obstacle
to be overcome on this route is getting
icross Deschutes canyon, and by Mr,
Goit's stirvev it is demonstrated that
nhis will be no difficult matter. The
point of crossing Deschutes is at the
ild Maupin ferry, six miles above the
mouth of White river, and this can
be reached by easy grades on either
side. The grade that will have to be
built to reach the river from the west
is only three miles while that from the
east is but two, and the heaviest rise
vill be but little over a foot to the rod.
There is little rock on the proposed
route on either side of tbe river, so
most of the grades can be made with
plows and tbe road machines which
the county owns.
The heaviest expense will be th9
construction of a bridge across the
river, but Mr. Goit estimates the entire
cost of tbe road and bridge will not be
more than $3,500. vVhat portion of
this sum tbe county court will be asked
to contribute is not yet detennied, but
tbe amount will be comparatively
light, since it is exoected that the
people 'of Prineville will contribute
liberally, as the route will give them a
free road to market, besides the people
about Dufur are very much interested
in the building of tbe road, and will do
their share, while the busiuess men
of The Dalles will also contribute
something.
From the top of the hill on the east
side of the Deschutes to the Crook
county line tbe route passes over a
comparatively level country, and the
cost of building tbe road through
that section will be nominal.
Messrs. J. W. Howard and D. F.
Stewart, two prominent Prineville
merchants, had an interview with Mr.
Goit Tuesday with reference to the
proposed new road, and were very
favorably impressed with the idea,
since it will shorten the route between
Tbe Dalles and Prineville, and will
avoid tbe paying of two tolls by the
Prineville freighters, which is an an
nual expense of nearly $10,000.
to be baffled by so small a thing as not
being able to transfer freight over the
portage by railroad, and they will con
tinue to receive freight and do business
"at the same old stand," corner First
and Court streets.

IT KILL THE HOPPERS.
Mnccetafnl Experiment With tbe Polxoned
Bran Grasshopper Exterminator.
This season grasshoppers have been
making serious inroads in Dr. Sander's
orchard on Three-Mile, and the doctor
has been experimenting with the bran,
arsenic and sugar remedy recom
mended by the department of agricul
ture, meeting with good success. Yes
terday Messrs. E. Schanno and E. K.
Russell visited Dr. Sander's orchard
to witness the effect the poison was
having on the hoppers, and found on
the ground where it had been put out,
thousands of dead insects. They hr.d
eaten the bran freely, and every one
that had eaten appeared to have died.
The poison bad been distributed In
small quantities about the roots of the
fruit trees, and as the hoppers have a
keen aopetite for bran they took to it
readily. It was noticeable that the
number of grasshoppers to the orchard
bad been materially decreased since
the poison was put out, those that had
not been killed, apparently having
become alarmed at the fate of their
fellows and migrated.
Messrs. Robert Cooper and Samuel
Creighton have also been experiment
ing with the poison in their orchards,
and have met with good success.
- Mr. Schanno suggests that tbe
remedy be applied in all orchards
where hoppers are numerous, believ
ing it will soon destroy the pest. He
ad vises, that a teaspoonful be placed on
achip or pieoe of pasteboard at the
root of each tree. Care should be
taken however to keep poultry and
stock out of tbe orchards where the
remedy is being used, for arsenic is a
powerful poison, very little of it being
required to cause the death of either
fowls or animals.
An Old Man Murdered.
One of the most cold-blooded mur
ders in the history of Riparia-was com
mitted Saturday afternoon by -Jas. D.
Lawrence, a passenger en route from
Walla Walla to Lewiston, Idaho,
Jacob Malquist, an old steamboat man,
but who, for the past dozen years, has
been conducting the Steamboat saloon
at Riparia, being the victim. The
murderer took to the hills, but was
followed by a posse and captured about
two miles from town.
There could have been no motive
for tbe crime, unless it was to rob the
old man, as it is thought he had con
siderable money on hand. The de
ceased was more than 88 years old.
Good Doctrine for Democrats.
When Senator Thurston, who pre
sided over the St. Louis convention,
was taken to task for disagreeing with
his party on tbe financial plank in the
platform be said: "A party platform is
not expected to necessarily meet the
individual views of every member of
the party. I believe in the rule of the
majority, and I should not think of
deserting my party because one of its
planks was not exactly -in accord with
my,personal views which I have here
tofore held."
If that is good, doctrine for the chair
man of the republican national con
vention wby is it not good for the
democrats who differ with the Chicago
platform?

AN OBJECT LESSON.
of Her
At Tba Institute.
Thursday afternoon the subject,
"What books should teachers in the
primary grade and the teachers in the
mixed school read?" was considered.
Many books were named, and a list
will be placed upon the board for the
reference of the teachers. Mr Hugh
Gourley was with the teachers during
the discussion, and gave them valuable
suggestions as to useful reading. The
teachers are getting much good from
the discussion work. The compoaicion
class reviewed tbe two weeks' work
this morning and but three questions
were missed. Tbe improvement in
writing is noted by the instructors,
and with two weeks more of work the
teachers should ' be able to pass very
creditable examinations in the several
studies pursued during the institute.
Jtotlo to Water Consumer.
You are hereby notified that the ir
rigating rules will be strictly enforced
from now on. If you wake up and find
tbe water shut off, don't kick at me, as
I have got to enforce tbe law to pro
tect your property. I.J. Norman,

Mexico If Froaperoat la Splta
Silver Bails.
The republic of Mexico is being
pointed to by the republican press as
a country of degradation, poverty and
distress, where there is no thrift or
enterprise, where poverty predomi
nates and investments are uncertain,
all on account of -the money of the
country being based on silver. How
ever some people who visit that coun
try find a different state of affairs
existing to what is depicted in some of
the partisan journals. W. H. Sebas
tian, general manager for W. J. Bran
dengtein & Co., tea importers of San
Francisco, recently returned to Los
Angeles from an extended trip througn
Mexico, and one result of his trip was
to convert him from an ardent gold
man to an advocate of silver. In con
nection with his change of mind on
financial matters, he said : . .-: -
"When I went out on this trip X was
a full-fledged gold bug, but have re
turned a free silver man. I found
Mexico one of tbe most prosperous
countries in the world. Old adobes
that have stood for 100 years and over
are being torn down and. in their
places are being erected magnificent
business blocks. Tfiey are doing
little if any trade with Europe for the
reason that they are manufacturing
everything they need. The only things
you can sell them is teas, matting and
Japan silks, and in a short time they
will ba manufacturing the two latter
articles.
"Eastern capital is being invested in
Mexico with good results. I found
several Eastern capitalists who also
went to Mexico as gold bugs but
changed their opinion as to free silver.
Why, free silver I consider one of the
best protection arguments that can be
brought out. If free silver has done
so much for Mexico, which it un
doubtedly has, it is guod enough for
this country. I could relate numer
ous incidents of Mexico's progress dur
ing the past four years that would sur
prise the American people. In one
city alone during the past four years
there have been fifteen factories built I
and they are doubling their dividends
every year. The Mexican Central is
making more money than any railroad
in the United States of its size."
forgave him, as he promised
cream if tbey wouldn't tell on him.
Of course every teacher kept the secret.
Then Supt. Gilbert, really was the
first one to break a new rule of the in
stitute, and one or two (we have for
gotten v hich) of the teachers was
found hanging on the gate! Don't tell
any one, but a youn? lady teacher told
us all about it. But one thing is re
marked by all, not a teacher has been
seen chewing gum. We conclude that
Wasco Co. teachers do not chew gum.

The Dalles, July 22, 1896.
Editor Times-Mountajnseb:
I see in thecounty court proceedings,
publi8ned in your paper during tbe
week, an item of $373.53 in favor of
Geo. D. Barnard & Co., St. Louis.
What this bill was for I do not know;
but I would like to know whether it is
sound protection principles to send
money to St. Louis or other eastern,
cities for work that could be done at
The Dalies or lu Oregon? Has it not
been tbe bane of Oregon in the past
that too much money has been sent
out of the state for articles that could
be manufactured or purchased' at
home? Protectionist. .

Will Handle Freight Anyway.
Although the portage road at
oades cannot be operated at present,
and possibly will not be for some time,
the D. P. & A. N. Co. will begin hand
ling through freight in spite of ad
verse circumstances. Arrangements
have been made to transfer freight
around the portage on the Oregon
side by wagon. This will be quite an
inconvenience to the company, as
tbe boat landings are about one mile
apart, nevertheless the managers of
the D. H. & A. N. line do not propose
Land Transfers.
