the child becomes hoarse, or even after
the crnupy cough has developed, it will
prevent the attack. This should be
borne in mind and a bottle of the Cough
Remedy kept at hand ready for instant
ii so aa soon as these symptoms appear.

Capt. Harts, of the United States
Corps of Engineers, put the finishing
mark upon the report ef The Dalles-
Celilo canal aorvey, Saturday and the
document has been forwarded to the
department at Washington, The report
is a very long one, as It was found that
such an extensive piece of engineering
as the proposod canal will be,' of neces
sity must be very thoroughly described
before the appropriation is secured, or
before an attempt is made at securing it.
There are ten maps accompanying tlie
report, besides a large number of photo
graphs that were taken to make the
general description more complete. In
all probability the report will be made
public as soon as it can be printed for
the matter it contains pertain to a bill
that will come before the congress now
In session. The Portland Chamber of
Commerce haa given it unqualified
sanction to the construction of the canal
and the trustee are now doing all things
in their power to secure the desired ap

' Tlie railroad proposition isiiiii'jig'Oi
conned more than ever, The article in
the last Issue of the (iums has aroused
much Interest and so far we have heard
no unJftvorable comment. Everybody
realises that the farmers of this section
must have better transportation facili
ties In order .to lie able to grow wheat at
A profit at the present prices and the
only way out of the difficulty is to have
the interior of tho county placed In rail
communication with the river. What is
needed now is A leader. Some one who
is familiar with the organization of a
corporation of this kind could readily
carry the project to a successful termi
nation, The people are ready for it and
the future development of the county
demands It. The railroad must come.

Washington oi- La Fayette?
.At a recent meeting of the Condon
public school literary ociety, at which
the question for debate was, ."Resolved,
That Washington deserves more credit
than La Fayette," Miss Jennie Neal'e
convincing argument, which we publish
below, will be found Interesting: V
Ma. President: t "V ' '
The theme for discussion this evening
is: Kesoived, , That Washington de
serves more credit for defending the
American colonies than La Fayette.
George Washington was . born and
raised in America.' His home, his fam
ily, hi wealth and all that he had that
was worth living for wa in America.
Wellington was defending '-his- own
home and lighting for" his own interests.
Who wouldn't? Suppose we were at
tacked by the Indians tomorrow, would
we not tight for our own homes and (ire
sides? La Fayette was born In France, sur
rounded from infancy with all that the
heart conld wish for wealth, family,
distinction, a favorite at the brilliant
court of Louis the XIV; Ho had just
married a beautiful young bride; the
king forbade his coming to the assist
ance of the American colonies. But he
left all these; turned his back upon
home, friends and country and incurred
the displeasure of hf soverign in order
that he might assist us, or our fore
fathers, to gain their freedom, and thia,
too, in the darkest hours of the Revolu
tionary war, when the hearts of the most
patriotic of onr forefathers were wrong
with fear, while the more timid of them
were even deserting the cause of liberty

What an example of pore devotion to-
liberty, It seems to me that the Ameri
can people have never fully done justice
to the memory of this illustrious char
acter, :
Shortly after La Fayette arrived In
this connf r? there was a cabal of Ameri
can officers, headed by one Conway,
formed at Valley Forge for the purpose
of wounding Washington's feelings, so
that he would resign his commission ae
general of the army, and they tried to
induce La Fayette to join them, but he
refused.
Washington says i "Jt most here be
recorded to the honor of La Fayette. If
indeed bis whole career in America was
not a noble monument to his honor, hie
geueroMity and unwavering fidelity to
every trust Impoeed upon him, that
from the very first ho resisted every at
tempt that was made by the flatteries
of Conway and the artifices of others
to bring him into league."
The attention called to the Revolu
tionary etrnggle by La Fayette's devotion
tor it, created A romatic sympathy for
the Americans among the noble classes
of France, which La Fayette aided by
correspondence. ;
In February, 1778, the American com
missioners in Paris, Franklin, Dean and
Lee, not only obtained the recognition
of the Independence of the United States,
but secured a treaty of alliance with
France,
Late in the year 1778 La Fayette re
turned to France to urge speedy assist
ance for the Americana, and returned
late In April, 1779 with the news that
a French fleet And land force were on
their way to the United States. The
fleet brought not only A considerable
land force, but also large supplies of
clothing and ammunition for the Ameri
cans which La Fayette had induced his
government to send. While he was in
Paris the French prime minister re
marked : "It is fortunate for the king
that La Fayette does not take it into his
head to strip Versailles of its furniture
to send to his dear Americans, as 'his
majesty would be nnable to refuse it."
In the beginning of the campaign in
the year 1781 the troops were so scantily
clad and the government was so nnable
to supply them that La Fayette, on bis
own personal responsibility, borrowed
ten thousand dollars of the merchants
of Baltimore to bny clothing for them.
La Fayette' visit to the United States
in the year 1S24 in response toan invita
tion by Congress, was an event memora
ble to every American citixen.
Honorable judges, I hope you wil)
take these few remarks, which I have
made, into careful consideration, as it
seems to me that a mau who did eo
much tor a country where he had no
interests, except the love of liberty, de
serves much credit at the hands of those
for whom he bo gallantry, heroically and
unselfishly fought And bled.
