The colored missionary, Rev. W. T.
B. Harwood, who recently preached in
this city, gave Heppner a call last
Sunday, and the Gazettee proceeds to
give him a roast because he left with'
out settling the advertising and other
bills he contracted in that city. Hep
pner people must be lacking in appre
ciation that they can't devote a few
day's board and a little advertising to
a missionary who comes into tneir
midst to show them the error of their
' ways -and point -out the straight and
narrow path that leads to everlasting
light. Poor benighted, unapprecia-

Timothy Sullivan, the wild Irish
man and veteran prospector, writes
from the headquarters of Hamilton
creek, Skamania county, Wash., that
he is on track of a fine mining pros
pect in the mountains over there! but
if he fails to locate it, he wilt come to
The Dalles this fall and discover a coal
vein. He knows just where it is, and
can locatj-it in- ai. day. If. Timothy
would come over right away and un
earth; the coal vein he would save the
A. P. A. Co. a whole lot of trouble and
expense, lor u somebody don't find
coal around here soon, they will keep
right on going down into the lower
regions and find coal where it usually
is discovered, several hundred feet
under the surface.
Is it "overwork" that has filled this
country with nervous dyspeptics? that
takes the flesh all of their bones, the
vitality from their blood, and makes
them feeble, emaciated and inefficient?
No it is bad cooking' over eating of in
digestible stuff, and other health des-
troying.habits.
The remedy is an artificially digested
food such as the Shakor Digestive
Cordial. Instead of irritating the al
ready inflamed stomach the Cordial
gives it a chance to rest by nourishing
the system itself and digesting other
food taken with it. So flesh and
strength return. Is not the idea ra
tional? ' The Cordial is palatable and
relieves immediately. No money
risked to decide on its value. A 10
cent trial bottle does that. -

master at Eugene, who was charged

Last evening Dr. Hollister furnished
an item of news for the press, but it
was an expensive one for him- He
left a horse and buggy standing in
front of a Ninth.st.reet residence while
be went in to visit a patient, but the
horse became ' frightened and ran
away, totally demolishing the buggy,
leaving nothing intact about it except
the front wheels. Fortunately the
doctor had taken his little daughter
out of the buggy before going inside
the house, else the child might have
been serriously- injured.
An old gentleman by the name of
Offutt, who has resided on Trout creek
in Crook county for about 25 years', was
found dead in a pasture near his house
one day last week, apparently having
been dragged to death by the horse he
had been riding. When found he had
probably been dead for several days,
a g. three horsefllhat he had evidently
fastened in a -corral the day of his
death had starved to death. He lived
in an out of the way place, 'which ac
counts for none of his neighbors hav
ing discovered his death sooner.
While The Dalles has not anywhere
near the number of manufacturing es
tablishments it should have, still It has
a few that are worthy of mention, and
which keep thousands of dollars here
that would go away. Take for instance
the Columbia brewery. That establish
ment keeps an immense amount of
money that would go abroad for beer
if there were no brewery here, and be
sides gives emplovment to quite a
force of men. What that establish
ment is doing for The Dalles is a sam
ple of what other manufacturing es
tablishments would do.
No better opportunity - will ever be

purchase a home or'wishes to invest
his money for speculation, he can find
no better opportunity, than this. 'The
lotes are all well located, and many of
them require no improving but are
ready to begin building on. Real es
tate in the city is now down to bed
rock and every lot will be sold at a

FORESTKK.1 GR1NU COURT.
THE WOOI. MARKET.
It Has Not Yet Opened and Prices Are
StUl uncertain.
A representative of a large wool
commission house was in 'rhe Dalles
the other day, and when asked what
the outlook for wool was this year, re
marked that it was one of the uncer
tainties. - "Nobody" he said, "can
this early tell what wool will start at,
or what the ruling price will be during
the season. Early in the season Cali
fornia wools sold at a sharp advance
over last year's prices. The advance
was about 25 per cent, or from one and
one-half to two cents per pound more
than offered last year. This was when
buyers believed the tariff bill would
be rushed through congress, and would
become a law by the middle of . June.
Now there is no assurance that the
tariff bill will be in force before the
middle or last of August, and buyers
will not hazard bnying on a basis of 10
cents duty with a possibility of only 6
cents being levied. At the present
time you might say there is no market
for Oregon wools, but that it will go
at least at last year's figures is certain.
The market will open up by the time
half tho clip is in the warehouses, and
holders will have no difficulty in dis
posing of their wool at some price."
When asked what effect the proba
bility of the passage of the tariff bill
would have upon the market early in
the season, he said it would be very
slight, as buyers were moving cau
tiously, and while they would no doubt
buy readily on the basis of free wool,
they would not hazard anything on
prospective legislation. However
believes the wool market will be
at whatever prices prevail.

The national campaign arrayed the
money power, bondholders, trusts, the
great corporations and all the profes

chaseable, all on one side. While the
plain people with all this arrayed
against them, and deserted by many of
their great leaders, stood like a stone'
wall, for human rights, through the
fury of the conflict. They are not de
feated but are still camped on the. field
where they fought eager for a renewal
of the contest, with many coming to
their assistance who allowed them-1
selves to be lined up on the other side

cry of "sound money." which has

Speculations are rife as to- what
stage the river will reach before all
danger of high water is over, but of

in the mountains drained by the
umbia to bring the river nj,

Boagnt an Ice Plant.
The Blue Mountain Natural Ice Com
pany, of which Robert Smith, of Perry,
is the manager, has bought out the
largest artificial ice making plant in
Portland. As a result' of this pur
chase the -Blue Mountain company

winter the company put up 4000 tons
of ice from the- Grande Rondo river.
A large portion of this amount was
shipped to Portland and the remain
der was stored at -Perry; With the
addition of the artificial ice making
machinery the company will be quite
well equipped for supplying ; all de
mands. La Grande Chronicle.
