TJie populist state central committee met ill Pur t land last Tuesday and sub mitted terms of fusion to the demo crats, which were accepted. It was Agreed that the electors on both the ' populist and democratic tickets should be withdrawn and two populists, one silver democrat and one silver repub lican eelecte'd in their stead.. All the electors, if elected, are to vote for Bryan and Watson. This' means that the democracy of Oregon have completely surrendered their organization to the populists.

Editor Glacier: Wednesday morn ing, August 12th, at 6 a. in., in com pany witlj Prof. Henderson and Mr. Mitchell, we started for Mt. Hood. Ar riving at the toll gate at 10 a. m., .we stopped to rest and feed. There we found a very pleasant place to camp, nice cool shade and pure cold water. We left the bridge at 12 m. and arrived ut Cloud Cap Ipn about five o'clock, and I must say that a nicer mountain road I never saw. We went into 'camp on the old camping ground be low the Inn, beneath the grand alpine fir and pine .and beside an ice-cold stream of water. It was not long un til we sat down to supper, and I can safely say the way the food disappear ed that there was not one of our num ber sick. After supper we were ip vited to visit the Inn. There we found a very pleasant party of Portland people. Among them was Dr. Dijion, the (lentleman who got Jost a few evenings before, In coming down from Cooper's ppur he'followed a canyon too far and darkness set in and the doctor wander ed all night. A searching party was cent out but the doctor hucoppIwI in finding himself not far from the toll bridtre, about 12 miles from the Inn. After spending a very pleasant hour at the Inn and learning that a party was to start the next morning at 7 to fiscend the nionntafn we went to camp. Mr. Mitchell being an old camp veteran we allowed him to build the fire, and I piust say the way he illuminated that mountain, it was wonderful. But one soon found out why he built such a fire, for about ten million buffalo gnats were there to camp with us, and we had to either sit close to the fire or keep up a wonderful gymnastic movement to keep the pesky tilings from roost ing on us, After sitting, around the fire and chatting for an hour, some one pro posed turning in riirbt here. The question then arose, shall we sleep on the tent or under it? The professor moved that we sleep on it. The ques tion was put and carried, so w'e pitched it low and crawled on top. Wo were 1 not long in getting to the snoring point, and got along finely till after midnight, when one of our number be came dif-satisfied about something Riid loft his bed nud associates and wander ed into the darkness.. Now,there was an ice-cold stream of Water within 20 feet of our camp. Well something hap pened right there,. I woke up with an Ice-cold vermin, or something, lying tight against me. One's first thought on such an occasion Is snakes but this was no snake. No,. no! We succeeded in get tilig him warmed, and all went' well till morning. ( We arose early, ate a hearty break fast and left camp at 0 a. in. for Coop er's spiir, I cannot, describe the beau ty of this climb. One must take the trip to appreciate the grand scenery. We reached the top of the spur at nine a. m., and waited there till the mount ain climbers came up. Prof. Hender son, wishing to make a collection of plants, went to work, while Mr. Mitchell and myself watched the party start up the snow-clad peak. We watched them about an hour and then started for camp, passing the professor on our way down. Not unlike boys we rolled fock down onto the glaciers for a while. On our way to camp we found a lot of coasting sleds, and Mr. Mitchell proposed trying his luck at boy play that evening, to which I con sented to help. So about 4 p. in. we left the professor sleeping and started for tUe snow, got our sleds, and on the 13th day of August we actually en joyed ourselves coasting as only boys can. ' . ' . , ,:. , Next morning we arose early, ate breakfast and started for home, find ing it delightfully pleasant coming down. We again camped at the bridge for dinner. There we found the Miss Grahams keeping hotel rfnd Mr. Oscar Stranahan and family camped. On our way from there, and near Mr. Booth's place, we killed a rattle snake. The next place of importance was Mr. Booth's orchard. Mr. Mitchell being an old army lorager, in company with Mr. Booth, succeeded in getting a bucketful of fine peaches, which we all enjoyed. We arrived home at 6 p. m., dusty and tired, but well pleased with the trip, and if spared will go again. J. F. Armor, y Sheep Ordered from the Iteserve. Special Agent Dixon, who has been at Mt. Hood, notifying sheepmen and other stockmen to take their stock off the Cascade reservation, returned from there Monday on his way to Oregon City. He. was two weeks on the moun tain, and found 20 bauds, containing Erobably 40,000 sheep. He notified all ockmasters to take their sheep off' the reserve, and most of them are comply ing with his orders us fast as they can conveniently do so. At the head of Mill creek, from where the city of The Dalles is supplied with, water, the sheep have eaten up every green thing within reach and even browse the young firs. The country presents a most desolate appearance. Thickets of underbrush have been browsed till they present the appearance of having been swept by fire, and where once was grassy slopes now barren and dusty hillsides appear. If citizens of The Dalles could view the source of their water supply, where thousands, of sheep have been' crossing and recross ing Mill creek, the sight and smell of that locality would give their drinking water a flavor of sheep that could be detected ip every swallow. Mr. Dixon posted the following notice, printed on muslin, at points where he Lhought it would do the most good: . NOTICE. Department of the Interior, General Land Office, Washington, D. C, piil 14, 1890.

Lamoreux, Commissioner. Approved: Hoke Smith, Secretary, Two Lives Saved. ' ' ' Mrs.Phoebe Thomas of Junction City, 111., was told by her doctors she had eon sumption and that there was no hope for tier, out two Pottles or nr. itlng'swew Discovery completely cured her, and she says it saved her life. Mr.Thos. Eggers, I3U Florida st., San Francisco, suftered from a dreadful cold, approachina: con sumption, tried without result every- tiiingeise, then Dougnt one bottle ot JJr. King's New Discovery and in two weeks was cured.

Better Times in Si ;lit. One day last week, Frank Caddy, go ing from town, met a populist friend who lives not a thousand miles from the state road. "Helloa," said pop, as he brought his cayuses to a ttop, "what's the news?" "News? Well, let's see," said Caddy "did you Rear about Bryan's last circu lar letter?" - : . "No; 1 ain't taking no paper now but the Glacier, i Guess I'll have to subscribe for some good populist paper that gives all the news." "Well, times, you know, have been pretty tough," said Caddy; "but they will soon be better. They are going to do away with all gold money." "Is that so?" said pop. "Well, I'm glad of it. That's good." , "Yes," said Caddy, "and they're go ing to call in all the silver money." 'How can they do that?" asked pop. "Well, jt will be this way: "You send in a silver dollar and you will get in return two paper dollars and a. year's subscription to the Farm, Field and Fireside and a package of garden seeds that will cost a dollar at any store in town. If you send in 50 cents in silver you will receive a paper dollar, the Farm, Field and Fireside 6 months and a can opener. If you send in two bits in silver you will receive the Farm, Field and Fireside 3 months and two can openers and a corkscrew. And if you send JO censs in " ' The broad grin that spread over the tace or our populist mend as he cracked his whip and started his team showed that he had begun to catch on to the fact that be was a victim of one" of Caddy's jokes. . Reunion of Pioneers. ' Times-Mountaineer. . Friday night the hospitable doors of the home of Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Brooks were thrown open to the old-time friends of Hon. and Mrs. E. D.Jocelvn, now of Colorado Springs, Colorado, pioneers of Oregon. The event was ar ranged and carried out as a surprise to the visiting pioneers. Anions the first arrivals was Mrs. Mary J. Atwell of Cascade Lock?, who settled at her pres ent home on the Columbia 44 years ago today (Aug. 22d), and at whose frontier log cabin Mrs. Jocelyn was a guest on March zo, lsoa, when the In dians made that famous outbreak that gave Lieut. Phil Sheridan. his Oregon war experience. The little river steam er "Mary" had escaped under a storm of bullets from her anchorage near the present site of Stevenson, with barely sufficient fuel to get across tiie river to Atwell's, where the women and chil dren, including Mus, Atwell and Mrs, Jocelyn, were taken aboard, and the rails from around the little clearing were thrown aboard the steamer- tor fuel to lust the trip up the river for safety at ine Dalies, then a military post. - Frontier reminiscences were of course in order and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Mr., and Mrs. S. L. Brooks were the earliest Oregon pioneers pres ent, dating 1850. 'lhe Jocelyns, Mrs. Atwell and Mrs. Camilla Donald were of 1852.- . . M. J.

Since 1878 there have been nne epi demics of dysintery in different parts of the country in which Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was used with perfect success. Dysen tery, when epidemic, is almost as se vere and dangerous as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the besf efforts of the most skilled physicians have failed to check its ravages. This remedy, however, has otired the most malignent cases, both of children and adults, and under the most trying conditions,v which proves it to be the best medicine in the world for bowel complaints.
