Long years ago, when work was first
begun on the canal and locks at Cag
caced, it was the hope of the people
that when this great improvement was
completed, The Dalles would get the
best freight rates of any interior place
en the eoast. This hope is now being
realized, and shippers from all parts of
the Inland Empire will be attracted
here and ill make this their distribut
ing point. ' ,
Hon. S. A. Pawson, state semator
from Linn county, speqt a few hours
in the city last night. He arrived on
the flyer from Portland and left on the
IOo'cIock train for Washington. What

poiotments.
The O. R. & N. Co. has made a re
duction of 50 per sent on freights from
Portland to The Dalles. The freighj;
schedule that has been adopted by the
company is as follows per 100 pounds:
1st class, 15cj 2d class, 12f cents; 3d
class 10c; 4th class 7i cents; class, (salt)
5 cents. Classes A, B, C, D and E, (car
load lot?) 5 cents per hundred. This
gives The Dalles the best freight rates
of any point on the O. K, & N. line.
At last The Dalles has got a rate of
one dollar a ton on wheat to Portland.
This is the rate the Times-Mountaineer
has been demanding all fill and it is
pleased to aaQognue that the transpor
tation lines have eean fbeir way clear
to make tills reduction from $1.50 to 81
on wheat. However had the reduction
been made a month ao it would have
made several thousand dollars for the
farmers. As it is, over one-half of the
Wasco county wheat was sold before
the new freight schedule went into ef
fect, hence the wheat buyers instead
of the farmers will reap the benefit.
General Wade Hampton, who has
just been succeeded by General Long
street, as commissioner of railroads,

miles of Foad, passed ipto the hands of
the courts, and &S others, previously
placed in receivership, were sold at
foreclosure. A steady Improvement
in railroad earning during the first six
months of the current year is noted,
an improvement particularly apparent
in the bond-aided Pacific roads.
Sfal.ist.ii-a received bv tho O. R. &
N. Co. show that the farmers of Ore
tron .ire fcowin? the larcest crop of
wheat ever planted in the state. This
fall has been a good one for plowing
east of the Blue mountains and, tho
high prices obtained for this sea
son's crop have been an incentive
to largely increase the acreage. It is
roAiinniililv pertain that whatever is
planted will be for shipment next sea
son. (From Friday's Daily.)

. n.i.i. f ikriHooroics Court That
Will Prjyo EmbarassiuR to Some.
t nut. fnnfLav the supreme court at
Salem handed down a decision that
will affect the marriage contracts that
now exist between a good many people
in Oreffou. and will cause quite a num
ber to iret into rather 6erious compli
cations. It was the case of Malinda
v ti.T .onnnn. aonelant. vs. Charles
McLennon, respondent.
This decision establishes that a mar
rlagowithin six months after a divorce
Wren is rendered is invalid as to the
divorced parties.
On September 3. 1889, plaintiH in
this case wa divorced from ber hus
baud bv the Multnomah county circuit
court. Twenty-two days thereafter
she was married in Vancouver, Wash
to the defendant, both at the time
being residents of and demociled in
Oreffon Beingr advised that the last
marriage was unlawful, plai' tiff
brought this suit to have i'. declared
void. The suit was decided adversely
to l.er, an appeal was taken.
Hie statute provides that, after a
divorce decree has been obtained,
neither party is capable of contracting
marriage with a third party until the
suit has been beard upon appeal, and
if no appeal is taken, until the expira
tion of the time alowed for taking ap
peal, which Is six months.
Passing upon the question the su
preme court says:
"The general rule Is unquestioned
that a marriage between persons sui
juris, valid where solemnized, is valid
everywhere, but this plaintiff having
been previously married, and her for
mer husband being-alive, could not
contract a second valid marriage any
where unless the incapacity arizing
from her previous marriage had been
at the time effectively and completely
3 1 .1 -51
this was not the case at the time of the I
solemnization of the marriage between-5
plaintiff and defendant, becauEe thej
statute under which the decree was
obtained provided that the divorce did
not sever the tie of marriage, so as to
enable either to become a party to a
new one, until the lapse of a specified
time after the decree, and her marriage
was contracted in violation of this
:
a tn. t.n to. This nrovision of the law IS
an Integral part of the decree by which!
alone both of the parties to a divorce!
proceeding can be relieved from the
incapacity to marry, and the marriage
by a person divorced in this state,
jind demociled here, in violation of its
provisions, is a mere nullity when
called in question in the court? of the.
state, although such marriage .may
have been contracted in another state,"!

Knew Be Was Guilty.
On Monday the grand jury returned
an indictment against Wm. Blank, for
assault with a dangerous weapon, and
this morning he entered a plea of
guilty. Blank is the man who one
morning last summer, while beating
his way in on O. R. & N. box car,
'"dreamed" that a brakeman was unr
dertaking to put him off the car, and
pounced upon his traveling companion
and severely beat him with a piece of
iron, then deserted him upon the ar
rival of the train at The Dalles. The
court had appointed Sam Van Vactor
to defend him, and Mr. Van Vactor ad
vised the fellow (q stand trial, feeling
assured that he could be cleared, but
Blank knew he was guilty, and refused
to listen to the advice of his attorney,
so when the case was called for trial,
)e surprised everybody by announcing
that be withdrew the plea not guilty
and desired to Otter a' plea of gujlty.
It Is evident that he assaulted his com
panion with the intention pf killing
and robbing him; he knew it, and his
conscience would not permit him to
deny the truth.

About 11 o'clock Thursday, the jury
before whom Ira Millard was tried on
an indictment for Indecently exposing
his person, returned .a verdict of guilty.
The crime for which Millard was con
victed is one of the mogt contemptible
In the category of crime, and it is tp
be regretted that the statutes da not
provide a more severe punishment. A
man who deliberately ex pases himself
before women and children and foroes
his hateful exposures upon them does
a most detestable act, one for which
there is no excuse. It is an act against
common decency, and seldom prac
ticed by a sane man. -
