CHANGE IS POSTPONED
The change in the time-card of the
Dallas-rortland passenger train, an
nounced'to take effect last Monday
has been indefinitely postponed. The
officials in Portland had authorized
the change, when orders weie re
ceived from superior officers at head
quarters to await further instruction
before making any alteration in the
existing schedule. The reason for
this hold-uo is not known, but
it is believed that the company
is awaiting th completion of the St
Joe cut-off bfore making any don
nite announcement as to tlx fut.nr
operation of trains on the Yamhil
division. The patrons of the road In
this citv are making no strenuous
complaint, but it is earnestly hoped
that the late evening service inaugti
rated during the Lewis and Clark Fair
season will be changed soon, and that
the night train will be put back on the
old schedule before the winter season
begins.
The Oregon Development League

CommerclafClub, Friday and Satur
day. January 12 and 13, 190G. There
will be two general sessions, and each

ings. The members of the Oregon
Press Association are anxious to have
a full atteudance, with one meeting at
least given up entirely to details of
the newspaper business in Oregon
The Tortland Commercial Club will
give a reception to both organizations,
Friday evening, January 12.
One thousand peoplo participated
in the irrigation ratification celebra
tion at Klamath Falls, Saturday
afternoon. The news that the Govern
ment had placed bids for the construc
tion of the first ten miles of the great
Irrigation project caused the wildest
enthusiasm, and the celebration was
the greatest public gathering ever
held in Klamath county. The speakers
were Governor Chamberlain, Judge
Henry L, Benson, Hon. S. 13. Huston,
and Hon. H. V. Gates of Hillsboro.
Work on the big ditch will be com
menced at once.
Frank Davey is again at the city
editor's desk in the office of tho Salem
Statesman, a position which ho has
filled many times before with credit to
himself and to his employers. Mr.
Davey is a brilliant writer and a
prince of good fellows, und his return
to activo newspaper work will be
hailed with pleasuro by the members
of tho Oregon press.
Hearst will contest McClellan's
election in Now York on tho basis of
allcgod evidence of wholesale fraud,
and promlsos to make it hot for the
Tammany bosses. Tho Kepublicans
have been counted out by Tammany
so many times that they havo become
accustomed to it, but when a Demo
crat gets caught in tho Tiger's claws
it is a different matter. Hearst's
Democratic friends can see nothing
funny In tho existing condition of
affairs.

At the Presbyterian parsonago in
Independence, on Tuesday evening,
November 7, Mr. Harry 11. Samuels
and Miss Fanny J. Smith, both of
Portland, were united in marriage by

on the east side and along the Wil
lamette Eiver at as low a3 &i cents,
although 10 cents has been paid in
most instances. Inferior grades have
been sold at as low as 5 and 7 cents.
The tears appear to have the situation
well in hand, and predictions of 6-cent
hops are freely made.
Only a few scattering crops remain
unsold in the Dallas district, among
them being the lots of P. S. Green
wood, Jim Linn and Toy Sing. The
majority of Dallas growers sold
around the 12-cent mark, and are now
Inclined to congratulate themselves
upon obtaining that figure.

Dr. R. V. Pierce, forty years. &ro found
that women were iVine mistreated
through ignorance or carelessness and
determined fi devote his life and energies
to their relief.
Ud vina found the cause of their suf
fering, he neit soii'iht for the means of
relief, and found in' Nature's hilniratory
the earth, certain roots which had re
markable and valuable medicinal virtues
for the cure of these ailments.
Using chemically pure glycerine, of
proper strength instead of alcohol, he
prepared extracts of these, and the result
was so satisfactory that the combina

The roots used are: Lady's Slipper root,
black Cohosh root. Unicorn root. Blue

years, ine accused man was taken
before Justice William Ridgeway, at
Buell, for a preliminary hearing, and
was bound over to the Circuit Court
in the sum of $1000. The bond was
promptly furnished, and the prisoner
was released from custody.
On Saturday, Muller was arrested a
second time, the complaint being
issued at the request of his son, who
alleges that Muller threatened to kill
him. Muller was again taken before
Justice Ridgeway. who placed him
under a $2000 bond to keep the peace,

fortius larger amount, the prisoner
was brought to Dallas by Sheriff Ford

by that officer. The charge of threat

bondsmen having surrendered him to

rOIITSEOIEFTAn
The young people who take part in
amateur theatricals in Dallas added
a fresh triumph to their already long
list in tho production of Hoyt's famous
comedy "A Texas Steer" at tho Wood
men Hall, Wednesday evening. A
more enjoyable play has never been
seen in Dallas, and compliments for
tho young people taking part were
heard on every hand yesterday. The
audience tested tho capacity of the
new hall, every sent being occupied.
Tho total receipts of the evening have
not been announced, but it Is believed
that fully 400 peoplo were present.
The play was handsomely staged,
every care being taken as to correct
ness of detail. The costumes worn by
the players were appropriate, and the
make-ups were uniformly clever. The
comedy moved with a snap and vim
seldom witnessed in an amateur pro
duction, nnd there were no tedious
waits between acts to try the patience
of the audience.
Those taking part in the play were
Judge J. E. Sibley, F. II. Museott,
A. X. Holman, Bert Teats, Ralph Hill,
Dr. H. L. Toney, George Morton, Fred
West, Walter Critchlow, Louie Mus
eott, Chet C. Coad, Henry Williams,
Lester Butler, Mrs. Fred West, Miss
Viola Martin, Miss Frankio Hayter
and Miss Maude Robertson.
Time and space forbid comment
upon the work of each individual
player, but it can be truthfully said
that a more clever lot of young people
were never gathered together on a
Dallas stage. Each entered thor
oughly Into the spirit of his part, and
the audience enjoyed every minute of
the performance. If you didn't see
"A Texas Steer," you missed half
your life.
The scenery, stage settings and
lighting effects in the new hall are
strictly modern in every respect, and
added greatly to the smoothness of
the production. The ventilation is
good, and the acoustic properties of the
big building could not be more nearly
perfect
