FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 1397.
B. 8. Pague of the Weather Bureau
at Portland tome 'time ago had some
thing to say in one of bis reports about
the cause of the chinook winds, alto
gether at variance with the generally
accepted theory that they are caused
by the warm currents in the Pacific
ocean. Dr. P. G. Barrett of Hood
River called his attention to it and
suggested that he might be mistaken.
Mr. Pague sent proof sheets from his
forthcoming report to the doctor, in
which he goes into a full explanation
of his theory of the chinook winds and
lias convinced the doctor that he is
light. We quote from the repirt:
! Were it possible to trace the course
and measure the temperature of a cubic
foot of air that drifts from the "high"
in Northern Nevada toward a "low"
in British Columbia, we would notice
a rise in temperature of 1.6 for every
800 feet of descent (called dynamic
heating) from the high plains of Ne
vada to nearly sea level, where it would
reach the Willamette valley, for this
would be its course. When reacmng
the Willamette valley, where the local
atmosphere would be cool and moist,
condensation would take place, since
the dynamically heated air would be
warmer. During the time the process
of condensation is going on in the west
ern portions of Oregon,' the storm
would be passing over the British
Northwest, and its center would have
"hantred to Alberta, in which case there
would be a rush of air through the
gorges of the Columbia river and over
the Cascades towards the storm center.
This cubic foot of air would undergo
another change; in passing over the
Cascades most of its moisture would be
lost In condensation by the meeting of
the cooler'currentson the higher eleva
tion. By the time this air would have
fallen to the plains and valleys of East
ern Washington and Idaho it would
not only be warmed through its descent
Vat dry through condensation of i's
moisture. It is in this way that the
great flow of air from the "high" to
the "low" uroduces the balm v but
moist chinook wind in the valleys of
Western Oregon and Western Wash
ington, and the warm and dry chinook
to the east of the Cascades. . The far
ther the wind progresses to the east
1 he warmer and drier it becomes, the
principles of dynamic heating of the
air lieing most perfect as the air flows
over the Bitter Boot mountains into
Montana. '
We are indebted to Mr. J. I. Miller
for a copy of the Peirce County Dem
ocrat of June 11th, published at Peirce
City, his old home in Missouri. This
place is 12 miles from Sarcoxie, the
great shipping point for strawberries,
from where, up to June 11th, 230 car
loads of Mtrawberries had been shipped.
At Peirce City the strawberry business
is In its hi Oincy. - When Mr. Miller
left there, seven years ago, he had
never ceen a cultivated strawberry.
Peirce City had shipped. 21 carloads,
which yielded "nearly a dollar a crate
net." The Democrat says:
A few carloads sent to a glutted mar
ket cut the general average down much
lower than it would have been had
they been shipped elsewhere. There is
some complaining and fault finding by
certain shippers, but it is a noteworthy
fact that some people are constitutional
grumblers. They will probably find
fault with heaven if they ever get
there. It la a new enterprise
with our people, and they seem to be
well pleased with the first year's re
sults. The association was inexpe
rienced, none of its members ever hav
ing bt lunged to a similar organization
before, and of course the business could
not be conducted without some fric
tion and unavoidable mistakes.
This good showing is from 105 acres.
There will be 150 acres planted in ber
ries (Ills spring aud summer.
There has been some talk of organizing
all the points and associations in South
west Missouri under one organization,
but Secretary Edwards was not dis
posed to regard the proposition very
favorably. '
Sylvester Penuoyer has written a
letter to the Oregonian in which he ad
vises all friends of free silver to get to
getber and join the democratic party,
the only party, he says, all true aud
honest free silver men can look to for
victory. It has not been very long
since Pennoyer withdrew from the
democratic party and announced him
self a populist.
The Oregon state fair will open this
year September 30th and close October
8th. A copy of the premium list has

the fair for 1897 will be a credit to the

White Salmon. The bouse was a mar
vel of artistic decoration aud elicited
the warmest admiration from the
guests. Mrs. Jewell's skilful hand aud
finely trained taste was seen -upon
everything, while the host was watch
ful of every one's comfort and lavish
with the magnificent cherries he raised
on the place. The lunch was sump
tuous, and every one indulged in lively
repartee and that social concourse
which only kindred pouls can appre
ciate. Led by host and hostess, the
guests went from point to point on this
incomparable place 'and viewed the
sublime aud matchless scenery. The
broad, placid Columbia In the fore
ground the majestic white sentinel,
Mt. Hood, in the distance, the fruitful
farms on the river banks, the dark, si
lent canyon at the foot of the biirh
cliff, silent save for the sweet music of
a rippling waterfall that lies half bid
den hi the gloomy shades of the deep
caverns all combined form a: scene
that soothes the faded spirits and lifts
one out of the common place up to the
dignity of appreciation of the great
Creative hand. Brother, and Sistir
Lee Morse in fitting words tendered
their gratitude to Brother and Sister
Jewett for their felicitous hospitality.
Brother E. L. Smith paid a fitting
tribute to the worth and energy of the
host and hostess in building such a
model home on such a peerless site,
and with brief reminiscence of a mu
tual unbroken friendship for more than
twenty-four years, gave theiu warm
assurance of the high esteem in which
thev were held bv their aruests. Bro.
and Sister Jewett briefly liut feelingly
responded. The entire company with
reirret said good night and left the
place, enriched by-the memory of a
perfect June day, a charming hostess
and a peerless host. r. -c.
A Lively Chase.
Sunday last, Constable Parry of
Moro came to Hood River with a war
rant for the arrest of b man named
Johnson, charged with stealing a sad
dle at Moro. Johnson was at work for
Mr. J. R, Galligan, doing some slash
ing. Constable Parry drove out with
Parry to make the arrest. They found
that Johnson was in camp in the gulch
near Galliiran's. and Parrv staid with
the team while Olinger went to make
the arrest, 'accompanied by H. S. Gal
ligan. Johnson was soon found and
placed uuder . arrest, and the three
men started up the hill. - When about
half way up, Johnson made a break for
freedom aud started down the hill
at a lively rate. Constable Olinger was
quick to follow, but had to run about a
quarter of a mile before he overtook
his prisoner. Johnson at first showed
fight. Olinger was unarmed, butinan
aged to overcome his prisoner and
brought him to the team, where hand-
cuns were placed on him.
Memorial Day's Future. .
Chicago Chronicle.
At the recent observance of Decora
tion day the rapidly thinning ranks of
the veterans again raised the natural
query. Who will perpetuate the custom
of annual decoration of'lhe soldiers'
graves when the last remnant of the
once powerful and numerous Grand
Army of the Republic has passed be
yond the range of human activity?
The Wisconsin national guard under
took to answer the .juery during the
recent Memorial day exercises by as
suming control of the entire day's ob
servance at Milwaukee and other
points in the state. In, other states
the same problem has been met with
the same answer, and there is a grow
ing tendency to intrust the youiig cit
izen soldiery with the . hallowed re
membrances and the patriotic observ
ances of Decoration day. It is improb
able that the veterans will ever wholly
intrust to other bauds, however will
lug, the standard of unfailing devotion
to the memory of the martyred dead as
long as there is life and energy left to
even a few of them. But the' Inevi
table march of the grim reaper gives
practical force to the foresight: that
would provide for all time a chain of
remembrance and willing acceptance
of the task they must lay down them
selves. It was thought at one time that, the
Sons of Veterans would fill the void in
coming years, so far at least as the ob
servance of Memorial day is concerned.
This society is stronger in some states
than others, but it has never yet dis
played those elements of permanency
or cohesion that would give promise of
an unbroken fulfillment of the trust
bequeathed to it by the old soldiers.
The Sons of Veterans is in its nature
but the society of a single generation.
The national guard, on Hie other hand,
is a perniuiient institution in every
state. Its members ate imbued with
the same volunteer spirit' of .loyalty
and devotion to the welfare of there
public that gave birth to the Union
army. , They have the advantage,
moreover, which is not true of the Sons
of Veterans, of military training, and
it is ntnng that those wtio seeK to do
honor to the soldiersof t lie past in pub
lic functions should themsehes be sol
diers. It is hardly necessary to sug
gest that the task of keeping green and
flower bedecked the graves of Union
soldiers in the annual observances of
Decoration day will be a welcome one
to the citizen soldiery of the national
guard. Theie. is no apparent danger of
any neglect, while the republic lasts,
of the memory of those who came to
the nation's aid at the time of its great
est peril. , - , .
A Good Citizen Gone to Rest.
Coshocton (Ohio) Democratic Standard.
The hearts of many friends in this
city were saddened, last Sunday even
ing, by the intelligence of the death of
Mr. E. McDonald, the well known
proprietor of the McDonald House
block, and one of this city's most en
terprising and estimable citizens. Mr.
McDonald had been In a feeble state of
health for some time past, but the di
rect cause of his death was a stroke of
paralysis, experienced by him about a
week prior to his demise, and from the
effects of which he remained in an un
conscious condition until his spirit
took its flight from its ailing tenement
of clay. . For forty years Mr. McDonald
had been an honored resident of Cosh
octon. Progressive iand enterprising,
he always took a keen luterest in all
that tended to the upbuilding of the
town, and was active in hie efforts to
aid in general Improvements. Honest
and honorable in his dealings, he en
joyed the respect and confidence of all
with whom he had business relations.
A kind neighbor and ,good citizen, he
goes to his last sleep mourned by all
who knew him, and the sympathy of
the entire community is heartily ex
tended to the sorrowing widow and
children in their great affliction. De
ceased had been an honored member of
the Independent Order of Odd Fellows
for more than forty -f even years, and
the funeral services were under the
auspices of that order. Religious exer
cises at the family home were conduct
ed by Rev. J. W. Toland.
Deceased was a brother of Mr. Thos.
McDonald and Mrs. H. Pugh of Hood
River. ' Mr. McDonald .received the
sad "news of his brother's death just as
he was ready to start on a trip to visit
him. He started, however, Monday
evening, but may not go further east
than Missouri.
