Ireland, who came in from Moro today, reports the ground having t been covered with snow when he left Moro this morning. Bryan's majority in Washington, as calculated from" incomplete returns from all the counties except Okanogan and Skamanie, is 10,000. W. H. Butts prides himself upon the excellent quality of the poultry he puts " on the market. His chickens, geese ; and duck? are always the best. . Colds are more prevalent among the residents of The Dalles at present than ever before. No body now-a-days is in fashion unless he can support a cold. We hear already of Baker City as pirants for the office of United States attorney, marshal, collector of customs at Portland, and for almost every other office on the list. Democrat. Incomplete returns from the different . counties of the state indicate that Mc Kinley has carried Oregon by 2000 plu rality. Complete returns have been received from 22 of the 32 counties. Nature is pouring out her bounties -"-rof moisture on Wasco county today. . x inn ly vi rum uo imuuu w " u wuv ' e-round so that farmers can begin plowing in all sections of the county.

There is little doubt but the dispatches are true.' : - A number of factories have opened up in .the" east-, since ' ?the election. Thus it would . seem that a few who - had promised to open their mills were not joking. There: is no agreement however, as to how long they will keep open. $ " r " Hereafter the D. P. & A. N.-. boats ' will leave for Portland at 8 a. my in stead of 7:30. This is made possible "by the rapid transit ; through the locks. They pass through in 15 minutes, whereas it formerly required rom one to three hours to transfer. The official canvass of the vote of Wasco county will not be made befo're sometime next Monday. " Tho returns from all the precincts except Antelope have been received, and - when they come in County Clerk Kelsey will pro ceed to make the official count. The contractors at Cascade Locks deserve credit for the elegant banquet - given their guests on the event of the opening of the locks, and also for cap turing the state officials together with our able-bodied senator, when the peo ple of The Dalles wanted them to help celebrate.' ' . - It was reported at the Cascades on t.h dav of the oneniner of the locks that Mavor Pennoyer had resigned : but the report seems to haye lacked foundation. The ex-governor purposes to hold on to the mayorality until he weeds out some of the rottenness of Portland. Two young men who are going to crawl on their hands and knees across - the continent from San .Francisco to New York, beginning next spring, will run the risk of being shot at for young grizzly bears by near-sighted agricul turalists, lassoed by cowboys, bitten by snakes, and of suffering from corns on their knees. The best thing they can do will be to crawl out-of their con tract. The e'ection being over and the locks opened, business in The Dalles must revive, hence merchants and other business men will be in need of new stocks of stationery. Recognizing this the Times-Mount ainkek- has added a number of new faces to its already large stock of job typo that it might be prepared to fill all orders and meet the demands of the trade. Give our new stock a trial: v The East Oregonian, together with A. D. Stillman, G. R. Lash and J. P. Walker are defendants in a libel case, in which one T. T. Newman seeks to recover $7,000 damages for defamation of character. In April, 1895, Newman was organizing the "Royal Endeavor," which was represented to be a branch, of the Woodmen of the World, and' the East Oregonian and the gentle : men above named undertook to show " that lie was a fraud, hence the suit. Yesterday we made mistake in saying the funeral of William Ced erson, who was killed in the railroad accident near Seufert's cannery, when we stated that he was buried by the K. of P. lodge. The funeral was conducted by Wasco Tribe of rfed Men and the Friendship Lodgd Knighta of Pathyas, the deceased hav ing been a member of both orders, and held the office of first warrior in prepw ;. .fi.. Wasco -Tribe lodge at the time of his death. - Without the ladies nothing would be a success, and especially is this true with reference to all manner of enter tainment. No one realizes this more fully than do the members of the com mittee who had in charge t':ie banquet given last Thursday -night. That everything passed off so successfully in the banqi.et h:i!I and that so many were well served that evening was due t the valuable assistance rendered by the ladies of The Dalles. Not only the committee but all who participated in the celebratiea extend their thanks to The Dalles ladies. A. Granger, one of Franklin county's mutton kings, is negotiating for 123 tons of hay, which he will ship either to Pasco orEltopia, and feed his sheep. a9 will also Messrs. O'Brien and Jen sen, says the News. Mr. Granger says his increase has been over 100 percent this year. He nl so says the range in tbo Fishhook country has been com pletely eaten out by grasshoppers and stock, and, unless there is a heavy fall of snow during the winter or heavy rains early in the spring, it will be hard picking for stock next year. - From Monday's Daily. Between Friday night and this morning there were 1.00 inches of rain fell at this place. Today Geo. Keller received a num ber of fine beef from James Snipes. They will be butchered and put on the racks at the Oregon market. The official count of the vote of Cal ifornia is to be made today. Indica tions are that the official canvass wrll give the vote of the state to Bryan. At the opening of court today J. B. Crossen and J. H. Jackson wore ap pointed general bailiffs and John Doh erty grand jury bailiff. Today Judge Bradshaw excused the following jurors from service upon court: E. E. Savage, Geo. Rucb, C. G. Roberts and H. E. Moore. The predictions of Pague have been fullfilied the past few days. He told us we should have rain and we got it to our hearts content. This, morning Wm. Ketchutn ship ped 203 head of mutton by the Regu lator. They go to Tacoma and are the first sheep to be shipped through the locks. ' ; ' . No. 1 wheat is selling at 70 cents in this city. The shortage of the supply and the opening of the Columbia to free navigaion is the cause of the good price. E. W. Trout has sold all his inter ests in the Boyd neighborhood, and will move to Salinas, Cal. He makos the change on account of Mrs. Trout's health. This afternoon .the grand jury re turned not a true bill in the case of the state ys John Schulz, charged with burglary. Schulz had been in jail the past five months. Besides the resident bar the attor neys in attendance on circuit court to day were Dist. Att'y A. A. Jayne and J. M. Johns, of Arlington, and A. L. Frazer, of Portland. The grand jurors drawn to serve during the present term of court were Polk Butler, foreman, Simpson Copple, L. N. Blowers, John W. Dickens, Pat rick Boiton, Marshal Hill and vV Mc Crum. W. D. Robbins, who while under in dictment, charged with the larceny of some cattle at Pendleton, jumped his bail, in May last, was captured in Spokane last Tuesday. He is now in custody at Pendleton. ;. -r The Ready Cash market is well sup plied with all kinds of poultry, chick ens, tame and wild geese and ducks, and- turkeys. Billy Butts, the genial manager, guarantees all his poultry to be fat and ne.. . . ' ..', .' The official count in Crook .; county gives McKinley an average plurality of 28. The average vote cast for the different electors in that county was McKinley, 603; Bryan, ' 575: Palmer, 27; Levering, !. Capt O. S. Waud gracefully accepts tho honor of having been the first man who" ever took a steamboat from The Dalles to Portland and brought it back. He left here last Friday morning with the Regulator, took it to Portland, and brought it back safely on Saturday evening. H. Askin9& Co., of San Francisco are looking toward The Dalles as suitable place to establish an electric light plant. Their agent, A. F. Jones, was here Saturday, and the head of the firm is expected here soon to make a more thorough investigation of the situation. This morning F. L. Leonard was ar rested on a charge of having -forged the name of Geo. Thompson to an order for two week's board at Mrs. Davis' restaurant. Leonard evidently had an oye to business, for it was board he wanted, and he is liable to get several months both board and lodging free. The Regulator is said to have be haved nobly in the swift water below the Cascades on her first trip through tho locks. It climbed the rapids as easily as any boat on the river, and ran about as steadily as though it were in still water. The officers of the D. P & A. N. Co. were much pleased with its behavior, and now have no fears of its being able to climb the rapids at any stage when the locks can be operated. Hon. Thomas B. Reed, of Maine, spent a few hours in the city today. His. special car was attached to the local from Portland, and he was given half an hour at Cascade Locks to view the government works. Mr. Reed re mained in his car while in the city and received a delegation of leading republicans. The train was detained here until 3 o'clock in order that the distinguished guest should receive and confer with his friends. Last Saturday evening the regular session of Dalles Lodge No. 2, 1. O. G. T., was held at K. of P. hall, and a very pleasant and profitable evening was spent by the members. Officers for the ensuing term were installed as follows: P. C. T., Freas Saunders; C. T., Mrs. J.

Hon. J. B. Eddy, state railroad com missioner, accompanied by two lady friends, is visiting in the city. August Buchler has been laid up for some time past with a badly disabled foot, but is again able to be on the streets.- Posion Ivy, insect bites, bruises, scalds' burns, are quickly cured by DeWilts W.tch Hazle Salve, lha great pile cures S.iipes Kinersly Drug Co. Henry Phirman returned -last even ing from a trip through Klickitat county where he had been buying beef f jr the Columbia Packing Co. The case of John Barger vs. O. D. and Sarah K. Taylor, appealed from this county, was argued and submitted in the supreme court yesterday. Chas. Butler arrived on today's local for the purpose of receiving a large number of beef aud mutton which he has bought for the Sound market. Io is estimated by those in a position to be fairly accurate, that 4,000 head of cattle from the Harney county have been shipped from Ontario this season. - An elegant finger ring was found on the streets of this city a few evenings since. If the loser will leave descrip tion at this office ho cn recover his property. Farmers throughout the country are busy plowing, and if the weather re mains favorable a few weeks a con siderable amount of wheat will b6 sown yet this fall. Johnny Brogan and a number of other Antelope boys who have been in the city for several weeks past left to day for the little city in the southern part of the county. Many a day's work is lost by sick head ache, caused by indigestion and stomacn troubles. I)e Witt's Little Early Risers are the most effectual pill for overcoming such difficulties. Snipes & Kinersly Drug Co. Lane county seems to bo in the best condition financially of any in the 6tate. All her warrants issued prior to March 23, 1896, have been called in by the county treasurer; The grand jury returned a true bill against L. T. North for indecent ex posure of his person and not a true bill in the case of Wm. Lane who had been bound over on a charge of rape. The whole system is drained and un dermined by indolent ulcers and open sores. DeWitt's Witch Hazle Salve speedily heals them. It is the best pile cure known. Snipes & Kinersly Drug Co. At Eugene yesterday A. G. Matthews, one of the proprietors of the Eugene flouring mills, had an altercation with J. D. Craig, a barber, and the former was badly cut about the face and arms. Complete returns have been received from all counties' in Oregon, except Curry, Grant and Harney. The figures now are: . McKinley, 48.675; Bryan, 46,340, or a plurality of 2335 for Mc Kinley. . ! ' If ycu want to give your boy or girl a thorough business education, Holmes' business college in Portland affords' the best opportunity. A scholarship in that school is for sale on reasonable terms at this office. Antelope is now an incorporated city clothed with full powers to enact laws for its own government-, the last term of county court having taken final action with reference to extending it full corporate powers. The opening of the locks did not re sult in the putting on of an opposition line of steamers between The .Dalles and Portland as many had predicted. The fact is the people are so well sat isfied with the service rendered by the D. P. & A. N. boats that they are not ready to encourage the starting of an opposition line. Card of Thanks.

SECRETARY Be Plead Guilty and Was Sentenced to Six Years in the Penitentiary. ;; George McConnell, for several years keeper of records and seals of the Oregon Knights of Pythias, who de faulted with funds of the order and de camped to Britisb Columbia -several months ago, appeared in Judge Sears' court in Portland last Saturday morn ing and pleaded guilty to three out of five indictments against him for wrong fully converting money and for forgery of bills of exchange upon banks. Ho was sentenced to three, two and one years respectively six years in all but as the sentences run concurrently McConnell will spend but three years in the penitentiary unless he is par doned. . The indictments upon which McCon nell was sentenced are for forgery of a bill of exchange on the First National bank of Corvallis for $30.60 anr? one upon the First National bank of Hi'.ls boro for $53.93 and the third was lar ceny by bailee of $55.97 money of Blue Mountain-lodge, No 28, K. of P. Speaking of McConnell's case the Portland Telegram says: - ' ; McDonnell's aowniaii, which -was quite a sensation in this city, was brought about by whisky aud cards. Four months ago he disappeared with an uncertain amount of cash and spent to British Columbia. Judge Stevens, while on a visit to Rossland, last sum mer, found McConnell in that city. He was on a 'toot' and spending what money he possessed like a prince, When the officer went after him Mc Connell sobered up and said be would accompany him without any trouble whatever. When arranged today and asked if he had anything to say, Mc Connell said that he had no defense to make of his conduct. Sentence was then pronounced. It is believed that the Oregon Knights of Pythias lodges -have lost altogether something like $3,000 through McConnell's specu lations." : Small in size ,but great in results.

" Saturday night, October Ql, William Spitzer committed suicide in his room at the Central hotel, Mitchell, says the Prineville Review. Spitzer was a laboring man, and had been employed during the past summer by William Nelson as a sheep herder. About four weeks ago he quit Mr. Nelson's employ, received his pay and went to Mitchell where he entered upon a protracted "spree" which was brought to an end the day before bis death by the liquor dealers refusing to sell or give him more drink. ' Sunday morning, after a failure to arouse him, the hotel people went into his room and .'found him dead. The proper authorities were summoned, and upon investigation a phial of strichnine was found in his pocket, from which several grains had been-spilled upon the floor. Strvchnine was also found in a glass, partly filled with water, that stood upon the table. Eli Hill. Lumber City, Fa., writes. "I have beeu suffering from Piles lor twenty five years and thought my case incurable. De W irt's Witch Hazie Salve was rec- omended to me asa pile cure, so I bought a box and itperfaimed a per manent cure." This is only one of thousands of similar cases.

Circles informs the Prine ville Review. that on the 24th of last month as his band of sheep were on Alder Creek on tho South Fork of tho John Day, 13 masked men on horseback armed with pistols and Winchesters rode up to his herder, Loyd Chenoweth, and told him to drop his gun which he did. They told him to throw up his hands and instead of doing so he grabbed his Winchester and sprang behind a tree and opened fire on the masked men who immediately left, not however until they had fired 20 or 30 shots. The herder fired 14 shots and thinks he hit two men. Mr. Circle states he was an eye witness "to this affair being about one-fourth mile away. The next day Mr. Circle states they fired into Fred Smith's sheep and killed about 100 head. Two lrives Saved. Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction City, 111., was told by her doctors she had consumption and that there was no hope for her, but two bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery completely cured her and she says it saved her life. Mr. Thomas Eggers, 139 Florida street, San Francisco, suffered from a dreadful cold, approaching consump tion, tried without result everything else then bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery and in two weeks was cured. He is naturally thankful. It is such results, of which these are samples, that prove the won derful efficacy of this medicine in coughs and colds.

Those who witnessed Miss Ober and her Eastern company in this interest ing play were well repaid indeed, for they were highly entertained by that aocomplished lady and her able sup port. The play is indeed satiracal, and the plot is well laid. It affords an abundance of mirth, and tho audience has no reason to complain for want of something to laugh at. The company played before a fair sizid house last eveuing, considering that it was their first appearance in the city, and will no doubt fill the house this evening, since the merit of their productions and the remarkably low price of admission is certain to bring out admirers of the play. Old People ' Old people who require medicine to regulate the bowels and kidneys will find the true remedy in Electric Bit ters. This medicine does not stimu late and contains no whisky nor other intoxicant, but acts as a tonic and al terative. It acts mildly on the . stom ach and bowels, adding strength and giving tone to the organs, thereby aid ing nature in the performance of the functions. Electric Bitters is an ex cellent appetizer and aids digestion. Old people find it just exactly what they need. Price 50 cents and $1 per bottle at Blakeley & Houghton's drug store. Seriously Injured. When freight No. 23 was coming down the road last night just above Arlington the airbrakes werejsuddenly turned on by the breaking of a coup ling, bringing the train to a sudden stop.

About 8:30 lasT; evening the little freight houie ut tho lower end of the D. P. & A. N. dock went down undt-r the immense weight of 70 tons of freight that had been piled up within it. The Dalles City bad just finished unloading her cargo, and all hands about the dock had started homi', whan a crash came, and all of a sudden the little house was a total wreck. The timber of which it was built was scattered around promiscuously and the large quantity of freight wad piled on the ground underneath where the house formerly stood io a promise!. u. heap. Fortunately very little of the contents of the warehouse went into the river, and by pressing into service nearly all the drays in town the com pany was able to move all the freight to their large warehouse in a few hours. The freight house wa3 built lust spring and was a structure 2-1x40 feet, built upon what appeared to be a solid foundation, composed of sleepers lli:12 inches, 2i feet long laid on stringers 12x12 that rested on piling sunk deep into the ground.
