I Ml HPDDner on Monday, April 10th and after a tedious, though pleasant trip, arrived inCbioago on Friday, April lath, r.hieauo is a world witbm. itself one of the busiest places I iter . Everyone- Beeme to be in a hurry, men .nm.n and children rush their way through the streets aa though they were in.t x little lata for the only train thai m .hnnt tn atari for the only gold mine on aarth, and in which tbey are to have a fortuns simply by going and calling for it The weather is about as disagreeable aa weather can be rain and mist and clnnds. Portland weather at its worst would have to be aBbamed of itself when oompared to Chicago weather. The city seems to have a great at tractive power tor all the moisture in Northern 111. They will not have settled weather here until the first of June, so I am told. I went to Jackson l'ark to witness the oeremoniea of open ing the World's Fair. With rain, sun shine and mud on one aide and drover Cleveland on the other, I managed to get in a pretty good day. When "Old Grover" touohed the button, the flags of all the nations of the earth were un furled, the cannons boomed and the maobinery in the great maohinery hall waa Bet in motion. The orowd of people was simply immense. It waaimaossible to move, exoept with the crowd. The mud was ankle deep. A simple sand wioh on the grotiuds was sold for the modest sum of 40 cents. Whoever buys "grub" ou the fair grounds, ought to appreciate what be gets, for be will hay to pay enough to make him think he had an elegant meal. The fair, so far as the present is con cerned, is a failure. I advise no one to oome here before July or August. It will take until tbat time to get the exhibit! in order and the buildings finished. The way they have it here now, ia like moving into the summer kitchen, which is just being built with nothing but the frame up. Again I say, do not oom e here before J nly if yon don't want to be disappointed. The beat time will be Suptember and Ootober. Well, I found the American College of Dental Surgery all I expected and more. I am thoroughly pleased with the institution. The facilities they have tor studying and teaching practical dentistry are all that could be desired. I expect to return in a few weeks. B. F. Vauobh. Chicago, May 3. 1893. n I Caklyli nBKi was electrocuted to day. Bud the outragrd law baa been satisfied. Whether guilty of the crime of murder or not be has suffered the extreme penalty of the law, and if in nocent, the wroiifl done him and his family can neyer receive just reparation. It is in order now for the papers that have loudly demanded bis death to feel fnllv satisfied, and in their post-mortem editorials not to draw the frailties of Harris "from their laat abode,''-!. M. Tub Astoria Budget says: "Samuel L. Uimpson, by all odds the beat news, paper writer on the Paoifid coast, baa jaat finished a course at the Enaor Institute at Portland, and next wk will take a position on the reportorinl stuff of the Budget. The liquor habit was Barn's only failing, but be now feels oufldent that be will never again taste it. He ia a mau of acknowledged ability, high attainments and can ob tain a high salary, or higher, than any ACRES Timber Culture claim Situated two miles West ef Hardman whole, 11100 ; or without the timber culture claim, $800. Good, deeded ranch, 320 acres, beet stock ranch writer on the coast." All persona who have been, or are now associated with the newspapers of the Northwest, will be delighted to learn of Mr. Simpson' good fortune in beiDg restored to a position where he will command rtepect by sustaining the dignity of bis position and ability as a writer. Mr. Simpson's greatest effort was bis poem "The Wil lamette." LrrTiBia now heard of "tariff reform" except among our sheepmen. Sheep and wool are showing the effects of the tariff agitation, at last. Free wool is not what the Bbeepmen should be clamoring after, and we doobt it they will endorse it, even though Borne of them are life long democrats. Th bough the kindness of the West, the gold reserve is attain intaot. Wall street, on the other band, is holding back in order to force the government to go deeper in debt. Dae the gold reserve; and the silver too; it is of no une hoarded up. Gen. Corss, noted for his saying "loan flght like h 1 yet," after he had had bis oheek bone shot away in an engage ment duaiug the war, died a few days ago. The general was one of the bravest who took up the cause of the Union. It is generally understood that Hepp- ner and I'endleton are not "in it" for the asylum. The race, so far, seems to be between The Dalles and Union. Both places, in the minds of the commis sioners, offer splendid Bites. Reciprocity relations between the United States and some of tbe South American countries have been diecon tinued. This is the first step toward the degradation of American labor. Continue; the single standard idea and America and tbe whole world will be bankrupt. There is not gold enough to go 'round, and silver should ba re stored to its old place. Mant of our farmers are preparing to fight the squirrels, regardlesss of the faot that no bouuty is now being offered by our county for squirrel scalps. An Accident on the "Big Four" May 7th, at Layft'tte, hid, resulted in several deaths and the destruction of $80,000 worth of property. Tub increase among sheepmen's bands in the Antelope country, says the Herald, is about 05 to 70 per oent. Kmanuel Meyku is baok from Wash ington, without tbe collector of custom plum. Okecion is "in it." Her fruit exhibits attract attention at tbe World's Fair. Tub Chinese exclusion act is being tented before the U. S. supreme court. O. A. It. NOTICE. We take this opportunity of informing our subscribers tbat the new commis sioner of pensions bus been appointed. He is an old soldier, and we believe that soldiers and their heirs will re ceive justice at bis hands. We do not anticipate that there will be any radioal changes in the administration of pension afl'iiirs under the new regime. We would advise, however, that U. S. soldiers, sailors and their heirs, take steps to make application at ouoe, they have not already done so, in order to secure the benefit of the early filing of their claims in onae there should be any future pension legislation. Snob legislation is seldom retroactive. There fore it ie of preat importance that ap plications be filed in the department nt the earliest possible date. It the U. S. soldiers, sailors, or their widows, ohildreu or parents desire iu formation iu regard to pension matters, they should write to the Tress Claims Company, at Washington, 1). C, and they will prepare and send the necessary application, if they fiud them entitled under the numerous laws enacted for their benefit.

We have a reasonably good climate, fair health. Yet we (my elf and family,) are not satisfied with some things here. We do not have the fruit and vegetables we would like, we osn grow some vegitables very well when we have rain sufficient, but we can not keep them till winter. We also dislike tbe cyclones and hail storms to which this country is subject. . I might euumerate many other ob jections, but some one would, perhaps say, "he is a chronic grumbler." I frankly acknowledge that Texas b many advantages; but would like to change to a country where one can grow and keep fruit and vegetables. So I ask the readers of the Qazstte to give adjoining, of which deeded laud there are 140 acres good farming land, bargain. in Morrow county, cheap and on For through its coluius, all the information they can concerning that part of Oregon. It would be of interest not only to me, but to others who would like to produoe what tbey consume, and not depend bo much on the grooery stores. There are many here renting land on which to grow cotton, working themselves and families hard to make a support, who would gladly go to the Northwest it they were only sure they could stand a ohanoe there to work out a home, with' out a capital to begin with.

"1 Am bo Tired" Is a common exolatnation at this season There is a certain braoing etfeat in cold air which is l ist when the weather grows warmer: aud when Nature is renewing her youth her admirers feel dull, sluggish aud tired. This oondition is owing mainly to the oondition of the blood, and its failure to supply healthy tissue to the various organs of tbe body. It is rem rkable how susceptible the system is to the help to be derived from a good medicine at this season. Tossessing just those purifying, building-up qualities which the bodv craves Hood s harsaparilla soou overcomes that tired feeling, restores, the appetite, purifies tbe blood, and, in short, imparts vigorous health.
