The State Treasurer's report is at

The salary of the governor of Oregon
is $1,500 a year, and yet the itemized
statement of the state treasurer shows
that his actual cash salary is approxi
mately $4,500, three times his constitu
tional salary. An examination of
these accounts reveals many a trick
to increase the salaries of all' state of
ficials. The present condition of our roads
and highways is an- urgent appeal to
our better sense. If anyone will travel
for any distance from any of our towtis
or cities he will not consider the sub
ject debatable whether or not our road
laws need readjusting to our changed
conditions and our higher progress in
science and civilization.

U. S. Senator Ellsworth has intro
duced a "fool measure" providing that
no portrait or alleged portrait at any
person may be published in any news
paper, periodical, magazine, pamphlet
or book wi hout his written consent.
The penalty is $1,000 fine. The object
of this is to prevent tbe caricaturing
of public men, which is being carried
so far. Perhaps Mark. Hanna Is at the
back of it, and wants to get even with
Davenport. Of course such a bill will
not pass.
A decree of. the circuit court of tHe
United States for the district of Ore

Dalles Packing Company, and estab
lishing, title to the strip .of land con
demned for the use- of the Portage
railway near Celllo to the government,

single page deed. -
The Dalles Commercial and Athletic

mysteries of shoe-polishing as it were
befo' the wah, free gratis, if they will
come.

The cow ordinance will be strictly
enforced- from this date. Spring is
coming on. and the young shoots of
our shade trees will suffer from nib
bling of bossy. Owners of milk cows
may save themselves trouble and vex
ation by seeing to it that the herders
take their cows beyond the city limits.
Senator Hanna s daughter appears
to bo somewhat of a manager herself;
after the old man had twice refused to
consent to her marrying the man of

City Marshal Lauer and Nlghtwatch'
man Wiley rounded' up twenty tramps
yesterday and started them east on
break-beam tickets. By the bye, speak
ing of the tramp nuisance, this city
being the end of a division on the O.

ble for the city fathers to devise some
plan to compel the road bringing them
n to take-them out.

there because of lack of room, and so
were placed upon the boat by a charit

This Interests The Dalles.
' One of the state officers yesterday re
ceived a communication from a num
ber of business men of Prairie City,
Grant county, asking as to what the
effect (of the failure of the legislature
to pass a general - appropriation bill)
would be upon the sixth district fair,
which is to be held at that point, this
year. A reply was sent to inquirers
stating that, as tbe appropriations
were made only for a biennial term and
the legislature haying failed to make
provisions for the aid to the fair, it
would follow that no state funds would
be available for tbe district fair in
question, or for that matter any fair.
This includes the state fair of this
city and will naturally affect the an
nual meetings of the different fairs in
tbe state. Salem Statesman.

SOMETHING MEW IN THE DALLES.
A Store Where The House Stay be Fur
nished Throughout.
Messrs. Michael, Surad & ' Perlman
have opened in the Bettingen building,
next door to the Snipes-Kin nersly drug
store, a store from which the bouse
may be furnished throughout an es
tablishment heretofore unknown in
this eity..;. Their stock consists of
stoves, hardware, tinware, carpets,
matting, window shades, furniture,
granite ware, baby carriages, ar.d In
fact everything necessary to furnish
the household complete. New and
second-hand goods in these lines are.
carried in immense quantities.
This firm is a branch of the Great
Northern Furniture S ore, with head
quarters at 233-235 Front street, and
203-205-207 Main street, Portland.hence
comes well recommended to the people
of this vicinity to whom they are not
entire strangers. It is thejr purpose
to place goods at reasonable prices to
pursue allve-and-let-live policy, giving
their customers a wide range of stock
to select from, and saving them the ex
pense of going to Portland to secure
bottom prices.
Their second-hand goods are so
thoroughly repollsbed that the pur
chaser can only tell them from new'
goods by the low price at .which they
will be sold.
;This firm has come to The Dalles to
stay and hopes by fair dealing to merit
the patronage of all, and invite- those
who contemplate refurnishing their
houses to call and inspect - their ' most
complete stock at any time after March
15th., . : . . -. - ...

lucky enough to find employment.
There are now 1,000 idle men in Ross-
land and those who command means
sufficient, are leaving. Freight from
Portland there is $o0 per ton and there
is a 35 per cent duty. Snow is now
four feet deep at Rossland. From what
Mr. Sorbin writes, it is a good place to
steer clear of, and what it needs is what
nearly every other place requires men
with capital who will invest it there.

Gamblers as Keformers.
Rather the unexpected has happened
In Baker City, the gamblers having
fallen out among themselves has caused
a reform, so to speak, and will likely
cause all laws against gambling to be
rigidly enforced for a time in that
city. Commenting on the situation
the Democrat says:
"That a number of Baker City's
prominent sporting men have been at
swords' points for some time past has
been an open secret, but the indict
ments which were issued on complaints
registered by members of the fraternity
proved nothing short of a revelation
to not a few of our denizens. This
action will probably settle the gambl
ing proposition, which bas been a sub
ject of much' discussion both in and
out of official circles of late, for some
time to come. Tbe gamblers have no
one to blame but themrelvea and "they
will have to take their medicine. They
have brought the matter into the
courts and as the duties of the officers
are clearjy pointed out they will now
be compelled' to act."
How 1 Will b Done.
The following from the journal shows
bow Oregon will be run tho coming
two years: - .
. Secretary of ttato Kincald baa come
to the conclusion that his duty to fil
and make a record of tbe claims against
the state that are presented at the office.
. For those -wishing to hypothecate
claims, and original vouchers will need
to he made in duplicate. Those work
ing at state institutions will have their
vouchers made out by tbe superinten.
dent, as bas been the custom. The
board through which such claims pass
will certify to the correctness of. the
vouchers, in duplicate. The original
can be filed with the secretary of state
and the duplicate used by the claimant
as evidence. of - bis claim against the
state. Those who are not under super
intendents or boards can present their
claims,1 certifying to the correctness
thereof upon their honor. This can be
filed or not, and a duplicate nsed if de
sired. The secretary will not issue re
ceipts.
Buying Up Cattle.
. Grant Copeland and M. McDonald
are in the cattle business this spring
on a large scale. A drove of 50 head,
purchased from farmers, were driven
through the city today to the Cope
land ranch. ' These men have about
400 head at the present time, and also
about 2700 head at Lewis ton and Pome
roy. The cattle will be pastured until
4000 head are obtained when they will
be shipped to points in the eat. It is
intended to ship tbe cattle In May, one
trilnload of which will b stall-fed
beef steers. Messrs. Copeland and
McDonald shipped a train load of 12
cars to Omaha last Saturday. Walla

KAILROAD COMMISSIONERS.
Will Continue Their Work Cnder the Old
Bonds.
Lydell Baker, clerk of the board of
railroad commissioners, was in the city
yesterday for a few hours. In conver
sation with him a reporter of the States
man eh ;i ted the following statement
of the case of the board:
The railroad commissioners expect
to remain in their positions and draw
their salaries for another year. They
claim that, as tb supreme court de
cided their case in their favor two
years ago, they have the right to re
main in office until their successors are
elected and have qualified, or until the
offices are abolished. Neither having
been done, they will remain in office
and will continue to do their work and
draw their salaries.
Tbe fact that the governor does net
approve their newly-filed bonds doesn't
worry these gentlemen in the least, as
their old bondsmen are not released
and those instruments still being on
file and valid, the non-approval of tbe
new papers filed matters nothing to
them, and they will continue in
their soft places for another two years,
unless a special session of the legisla
ture should abolish the law creating
them. Salem Statesman.

the way I
This is
long have
sought:
And mourned
because I found it
not."
Has been tho peon of joy and satis
faction of many a traveler, who after
weary days of unpleasant experience
with this, that or the other line, settles
himself for a comfortable ride from
Minneapolis or St. Paul to Chicago or
Milwaukee in one of the elegant
coaches of the Wisconsin Central
Lines. Then again the Inspired lines
of the poet come to mind as he seats
himself at the table in the dining car
this same Wisconsin Central and
finds himself served with the best meal
at a reasonable price. For particulars

The 'Primary Teacher.
Lilt your bat reverently when you
meet a school teacher of a primary
school. She is the good angel of the
republic. She takes the bantling fresh
from the home nest, and full of pouts
and passions anungovernable wretch
whose mother admits she sends him to
school to get rid of him. This lady,
wno Knows oer business, takes a car
load of these little anarchists, one of
whom single haaded and alone is more
than a match for his parents, and at
once puts them in the way of being
useful and upright citizens. At what
expense of toll and soul weariness?
Here is the most responsible position
in tbe whole school and If her salary
was double she would not receive more
than she earns. Ex.
