importing bacon, lard and hams from
Omaha and Chicago. During the first
three days of this week 10,000 bead of
hogs were shipped from La Grande,
most of them going east. . They will be
packed in some eastern establishment
and pretty soon the people of Oregon
will want the bacon and lard to. con
sume, and will begin paying freight on
it both ways. This makes business for
the railroads, but it will come high on
the consumers. One thing needed in
Oregon is another great big meat pack
ing establishment, and it ought to be
located in The Dalles.

The days when the imaginations of
'prophets" were heeded have passed,
still there ere men who will prophesy,
and tbeir pretended visions of the
futuro furnish amusement if nothing
else. Below are some of Astrologer
Astor's predictions, which are given
space simply as curiosities, not that we
place any credence in his forbodiugs:
Tho coming winter will be the most
severe since 1813, and colder than can
be recalled by the oldest inhabitant;
especially will the South and West
suffer in' this respect. There will be
heavy rain and snow and hailstones of
remarkable size, as well as several
meteors that will fall.
Violent storms are to come, one fol
lowing another. Tidal waves will oc
cur several iiiuieB uui iuj; tuo wmcr,
and the Atlantic coast will suffer frOm
the ravages of the sea. More than one
of the great Atlantic liners will sail
their last vovage, and never in the
history of shipping will be recorded
such frightful loss of life and property,
Fierce fires and conflagrations will ex
tend throughout the land and loss of
life from this cause will be apalling
There will be heavy failures in trade,
especially among insurance companies,
Tornadoes and explosions will occur.
and-aeain will the Sjuth and West
suffer severely.
November will be the phenomenal
month of the year. The centering of
the majority of planets in the mystic
and accursed sign Scorpio, will pro
duce startling changes, which will be
gin directly . after the lunation of the
moon.
England is to mourn the death of her
noble queen, who will not survive the
winter, and the passing away of this
wonderful woman will mark the great
est change in the annals of the Eng
lish parliament since the days of King
George III.
War will be rampant. The downfall
of Spain and the freedom of Cuba are
to come. Turkey will be disposed of
and Russia will assume a distatorial
front, with the result that the English
government will lose some of Its valua
ble possessions.
There will be more unrest among the
great -foreign powers than for many
years. Deaths of prominent people
will occur, and under peculiar circum
stances. Darring robberies will take
place, and there will be an avalanche
of crime of a shocking and heinous
nature. During, this month stocks will
advance rapidly, and commodities of
all kinds will command higher prices,
but will recede again and trade will
not revive until after April, 1897.

when they came to Oregon, locating at
Silverton. In 1863 they came to The
Dalles, and this has been their home
until death called them to the home
beyond, Mrs. Crandall having died in
March of last yrar. Since last July
Mr. Crandall has been confined to the

several months past had recognized

the time when the final separation
should come. He leayes two children,
C. J. Crandall and Mrs. W. H. Groat,
both of this city. :v
During 33 years of residence in this
city Mr. Crandall was recognized as an
honest, straightforward man, upright
in his dealings and just'toall, and in
his death The Dalles loses one of its
earliest pioneers and most highly re

a large number of sorrowing friends.
AN INTERESTING ESTIMATE.
The Difference 38,000 Tote Would Have
Made In the Result.
In Senator Butler's address, as chair
man of the populist national com
mittee, issued recently, he makes the
assertion that if 25,000 more silver re
publicans bad voted for Bryan In cer
tain states, the Nebraska statesman
would haye been elected president.
In view of tho talk about landslides,
tbis assertion was considered rash, but
it was very nearly correct. Let us see.
Look at tbis tabic snowing bow a
change of less than 25,000 votes dis
tributed over nine states would have
elected Bryan:
Electorlal
States Voles Majorities
California 9 3,000
Delaware 3 2,500
Indiana 15 22.0CO
13 257
3 5,000
Oregon 4 2.300
West Virginia 6 12,000
?mmmmmmmmmmmmmmwmmmmmmmmm
Totals 60 47,000
Now suppose there had been these
changes from McKinley to Bryan:
California awarded 1255, Indiana 11,-
100, Kentucky 130, North Dakota 3510,
Orogon 1163, West Virginia 6,100 a
total of 21,165. These changes would
have given every one of the seven
states to Bryan and adding their vote
to the 174 he got elsewhere, would
have made his strength In the electoral
college 227, or three more than needed
to make him president.

. . ' , -Good, If True.
This dispatch, dated at The Dalles,
Nov. 18tb. appeared in the Oregonian:
"One of the results of McKinley's
election in this locality is seen in the
voluntary raising by many sheep own
ers of herders' wages. Nearly all tbe
herders who have hired out since the
election have done so at an advance of
$5 a mon th over the wages paid last
winter. The local wool market is
feeling the stimulus of expected tariff
legislation, and wool is being sold from
8 to 81 cents a pound. Many producers
are waiting for a higher price."
We sincerely hope these statements
are the truth, tbe whole truth and
nothiug but the truth, but must admit
we are somewhat skeptical. Careful
inquiry fails to discover any sheep
owner who has - raised bis herder's
wages or an account of any wool that
has been sold for more than 8 .cents.
While we would like to see herders
get better wages and sheep men get
20 cents a pound for their wool, we
cannot see the sense of misrepresenting
facts and thus misleading people.
Winter Amusements.
Since the days have narrowed down
about to ' their minimum ' and the
season of darkness has stretched out
over about 16 hours of the 24, people
are beginning to cast about for some
sort' of amusement during the ' long
evenings." Many look to . secret
societies as a means of furnishing such
entertainment, and on this account
most of the fraternal orders prepare
special programs during tbe winter
months. ; This Is one of the special
features of the Degree of Honor, and

Happy Hunting Grounds above our be
loved brother, W. Cederson; therefore
be it .
Resolved, That in the sudden man
ner in which the inscrutable degree of
the Mishe Manitou was, carried out In
the removal of our brother, gave us a
thrill of horror, and appeared as
though a giant tree in the forest of
life while in tbe vigor of spring had
been stricken down and had made a
vacancy which it would be difficult to
fill. - : ' .
Resolved, That in the death of
Brother Cederson the community has
lost an upright neighbor, the state a
good and loyal citizen, and our tribe
an earnest and zealous member.
Resolved, That. to his afflicted rela
tives we extend our heartfelt sympathy,
and, while we mourn with them the
loss of a brother and an exemplary
man, we must bow in resignation to
the fiat of the Great Spirit, who orders
tbe sunshine and the rain, the stormy
blasts of winter and the balmy breezes
of summer.
Resolved, That our charter be
draped in mourning for thirty days.
and that a copy of these resolutions be
furnished the city papers, also, the
family of the deceased, and that they
be spread upon the speaking papers of
the tribe as part of the proceedings of

A Crazy Han Caused a Sensation Among
the Girls.
A most sensational attempt at mur
der occurred last night in the dining
room of the "Girls' Dlrectory,"a chari
table institution, conducted by the
Sisters of Mercy in the old Reid resi
dence, says the Oregonian, in which
one of the inmates of the house, Miss
AngleJMcGregor, came very nearly be
ing killed by Baylor Cbilds, a crazy
fellow who was a sort of servant about
the directory.
At 6 o'clock last night, as seven of
the young girls, who are now staying
at the borne, were sitting in tho dining
room eating supper, Cbilds, wild-eyed
and flourishing a pistol, came rushing
into the room, and before they realized
what had - bapened, he began blazing
away into their midst. An indescrib
able panic followed. The terrified
girls rushed frantically about the room,
blindly seeking avenues of escape, and
screaming and shrieking in their
fright. The room was filled with
smoke, and the reports of Child's
pistol made the scene more confusing.
After Child's had emptied his pistol,
he fled from the building and rushed
to the police station, where he asked
to be locked up, stating that he had
killed a girl at the Directory. Childs
showed every indication of being a
madman, and gave as a reason foi his
rash deed that the girl had hypnotized
him, and his only hope of escaping
from her influence was to kill her.

A deer hunt that ended in killing a
fine spike buck in the heart of Cor
vallis, says tbe Times, was one of the
incidents of yesterday morning. It all
happened before most of the inhabi
tants had breakfasted, and for that
reason there were but' few eye wit
nesses to the excitement. John Simp
son, tbe one who formerly hailed from
Soap Creek, was the principal hunter.
He lives in the vicinity of the Holgate
home, and had been down to the
butcher shop for steak for breakfast.
As he passed the court house he saw
walking around in the snow a fine
young spike deer. Of course the
thought of venison steak flitted
through his mind, and he hurried
home for a, shooting iron. .- He called
for his revolver, . but Mrs. . Simpson
feared from his .. excited, manner that

Conductor Fowler Harried,
On .Wednesday evening William. H.
Fowler and Miss Ida L. Waffle were
united in marriage at the residence of
the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. S.
Waffle, in Pendleton, by Rev. Perry
Chandler. The ceremony, says - the
Pendleton Tribune, was performed in
the presence of the Waffle family and
a few near friends. Effle J. Frazier
was bridesmaid and Edwin Mays, of
Portland, acted as best man. Both
Mr. Fowler and Miss Waffle are well
known here. The groom is conductor
on the O. R. & N. train between this
city and PortlanJ.' i The couple left on
tho train for Portland in which city
they expect to make their home. Tbe
many friends of--Mr. Fowler in The
Dalles will be pleased to hear of tbis
happy event,, tfcough they regret he
and Mrs Fowler liave not selected this
city as their place of abode.
The Popular Vote.
Until the official count has been com
pleted in all the states it will be im
possible to learn the exact figures of
the popular vote in the recent election,
it is thought that upwards of 13,000,
000, votes were cast. Four years ago
it was 12,110,366, . and Cleveland's
popular vote was . 380,810 over that of
Mr. Harrison. . Notwithstanding that
Cleveland was elected in 1892 by a
large majority of the popular vote and
in the electoral college, the Courier
Journal admits that the recent election
Mr. Bryan received more popular
votes than 'did Mr. Cleveland In 1892.
Figuring on the - latest' returns, Mr.
Bryan has about 175 electoral votes.
This is 30 more than Mr. Harrison
captured la 1892, and seven more than
Mr. Cleveland received in 1888.
