The Dalles Is the Best Market la Eastern Oregon, During the past year Heppner has put forth commendable efforts to secure a trade that has formerly come to The Dalles, but has met with a "cold hand." Last fall the enterpris ing people of that city contributed liberally to a fund for Improving the road to Mitchell, hoping to get the trade of that place, and induce the wool raisers of Bridge creek to bring their products to Heppner. A good road was built, and the distance tween being only eighty miles, it was thought the wool would naturally po there, but it did not. Tbe sheepmen of Mitchell and vicinity sent their wool to The Dalles, a distance of 125 mile?, for tbey well knew that when it was stored in the warehouse here it would command the highest price to be obtained anywhere on the coast. This is proof positive that Tbe Dalles retains the confidence of the producers of the interior, and that it must continue to be the shipping point for the surrounding country until railroads are built to the very doors of the producers. The best prices for the products of the country have always prevailed here, and since Dalles mer chants sell at very nearly Portland price, the farmers of the Inland Em pire who are within reach of this place find no encouragement to go else where. Kews From the 8(llne. J. Edwards has just returned from a trip to the Stikloe river, where be went with Capt. Johnston, who is master of a steamer on that swift river. Mr. Edwards says the climate is quite pleasant, but tbe mosquitoes are very annoying and nearly as large as wasps, while their visit is not forgotten for some time. On the run that Capt. Johnstone has which is between Fort Wrangell and Glenora, a distance of 150 miles, it tekes four days to go up the river and eiffht hours to come down. The sw'ft- ness can hardly be realized, but when four days is compared with eight hours it is easily seen there is quite a differ ence in time. At Fort Wrangell there are no less than twenty steamers tied up, aays Mr. Edwards, waiting for busi ness to open-up. He further says that men who have been up there for months have not gotten more than sixty miles from Telegraph creek, which ia only twelve miles from Clenora. He does no. think a single one will be able to get far enough in the interior to make any rich strike. Lots of the men who have started out with the firm determination of pros pecting the country thoroughly,are re turning disgusted with their attempt. What Ur. K. A. Salter Aays. Buffalo, N. Y.

The Slwash Cuxutnxed. The individual red man adds to his learning as his race passes into decay. At Ellensburg, Wash., last week, an Indian named Antwine was granted a divorce from his klootchman. After the decree had been signed the lawyer explained to Antwine that the law forbade remarriage within six months. Thinking that the ends of justice would be better served, the lawyer made the explanation in Chinook. After he had twisted his jaw into all sorts of shapes with such jargon as "okoke," "kopa okoke," "mammocok law," "mika ticky," "taghum moon," and others no better, the Indian said: "Thank you, Mr. Attorney, I under stand the conditions exactly, as I care fully read the law on divorces before I beau this suit." This particular Ellensburg lawyer has burned his text book on Chinook, and Is thinking, as a further penance, of hiring a dozen strong bucks from the North Yakima reservation to kick him all over the Big Bend emuire.

The social given by the Portland lodge of Elks Thursday night, says the Oregonian, was an entirely successful affair. The feature of the night's ea- tertainment was the presence of the Norris Brothers' band and members of 'The Prodigal Father" company. Tom Car well, as leader of the band, playing a clarionet, and at the same time directing the work of his fellow-play- era with his instrument, provoked the greatest enthusiasm. When "Ameri ca" ana other patriotic airs were played, every man in the hall was on his feet and continued standing until the selection was completed. Among 'The Prodigal Father" company who assisted in the entertainment were Lyman Welcher, the manager, Bert Swan, George Spink, Charles Hooker and L. Williams, all of whom did their 'turns" to the greatest satisfaction of all present. Henry Griffin presided as master of ceremonies, and that of it self was sufficient to insure complete success of the entertainment. To Cure a Cold in One Day. Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tab lets.

Monday night will be laughing night for all those who attend tbe "Prodigal Father" play at tbe Vogt opera house. The play has just enough plot to be interesting. Tbe specialty acts come and go like lighting from the starting to the finish of the play. The specialties are fast and furious. The Oregon ion if a recent issue says "there is not a solemn moment in it.." This will likely be the last comedy of the season,' and no doubt the mirth loving fraternity will turn out en mass to see a high class attraction of this kind Nature's Detectives.

We have it from good authority that there was still another pair which were named Max and Climax. It is time all were making some kind of arrangements for the Fjurth of July. In doing so the fact should not be forgotten that The Dalles is going to celebrate, as she never did before. All are taking an active part .in the proceedings, and will undoubt edly succeed in making Independence Day of 1893 one long to be remembered by those visiting in our city. Come and be one of us. A welcome to all. The railroad that is being built at Skagway is quite a scheme. The management advertises for men, stat ing wages of three dollars a day will be paid. When the men arrive at Skagway they are immediately put to work, but at the end of the week are discharged, with no reason given what ever. Another crew is put to work and so it goes on. The idea is to get men to go on their steamers and pay transportation, and then after a few days, they are left on their own resouces and hare to pay for return transportation. Its a great graft and seems to be working well. Excursion Last Nls;ht. At 8:30 last evening tbe Regulator left the dock with a lolly crowa or ex cursionists. The Alpha Mandolin and Guitar Club entertained the guests with numerous selections, while they were favored with solos and quartettes by some of the best talent in tbe city. Going down, the wind was quite strong and most all were compelled to re main inside, but on the return trip, it was decidedfy pleasant and tbe decks were thronged with merry-makers. About one hundred and sixty weie aboard and from all appearances en joyed themselves very rnucb, The Regulator went down nearly as far Hood River and did not get back un til 11:30. Tbe club made a success of the excursion, and It is to be hoped, during the summer months .when the heat is oppressive, they will give more of their pleasant excursions, for then they will be thoroughly appre ciated.
