(From Daily. Dec. 26th.)
The temporary organization of the

retary, Is to be made permanent, and
efforts are now being made in thit
direction. The veterans realize that
an organization of this kind will be
a good thing, and all are enthusiastic
in the matter and anxious1 to be ! en

A meeting of the ex-volunteers has,
therefore, been called for next Satur

Chas. A. Murphy, president, and G. W.
Jones, secretary, of the temporary or

,"A few weeks ago a temporary or
ganization of ex-soldiery of the Spanish-American
war was effected at Sa

ize permanently. The co-operation of
all Is very much desired in this mat
ter, and we . most urgently request

comrades who hive survived common
perl'r, ths ties' of friendship, frater-
lty and love woven onthe battlefield
and in arduous oampaffcns.
'2. To extend a ready and helpful
hand wherever and whenever the needs
of a comrade ln health or sickness re
quire, and bestow our best efforts to
the widow nd orphan of our soldier
dead that the sacrifice of the patriot
may not bring suffering to the bereav
ec home. .
"3. To decorate' the tomb of fallen
soldiers, that: tablet and monument
may. rle In mute appeal for sweet and

breast. . i
"4. To maintain loyal allegiance to

which the nation Is committed.
"5.- To Inculcate purer and 'deeper
patriotism, expressed with more dej

THE CHINOOK WIND
A Christmas Story of Early 1y Tti
Chinook Is the M ind of Blessing 'for the
i West Coast.
The wrlterl recently heard a Native
Son give In a very plain; manner" the
reasons whyJ the northwest wind was
name! the Jbhlnook wind at Astoria.
The Oolumma In Its course flows north
of west lato the Paclfte."- It valfey
widens neaV the ocean, and the north"
west wind Blewa from Chinook to As
toria ani is ttoere an up-stream wind.
But I from Vancouver - eastward the
course Is south of west, and at Cape
Horn the southwf st wind becomes the
Chinook or up-stream wind, and was
so called by the natives of the upper
Columbia when the first emigration
across the plains , began. Where it
pasFs through the gorge of the- Cas
cade It was often a danger to canoe
or batteau boat navigation, when the
river was the only way by which the
pioneers who crossed the Rocky Moun
tains co&TI reach Western " Oregon.
About four miles of the gorge was call
ed "Cape Horn, because it was the
moet dangerous part of the passage
from The DaUes to the ' mouth of the
Willamette. Some of the immigrants
of 1843 suffered great . privations by
being stopped there by the, rush of the
southwest , wind through that portion
of its course.
Late in December, 1S44, S. B. Crock-
ett, Daniel Clark and the writer were
bringing the last batteau load of that
year's Immigration Into the east end
of that four-mile stretch, when we saw
a storm cloud rushing Into It from the
west. The wind waa taking up the
water of the river and carrying It up
first as heavy spray and still upward
as dense fog. - It front of this roaring
mass of wind. pray and fog. a num
ber of bald eagles wheeled and circled,
screaming seemingly in fierce delight.
They would fly upward above the fog,
and,, turning., swoop down to the sur
face of the raging water. We were so
fascinated by the strange sight that
the threatened "danger was for a time
forgotten; and when we all at once
realized that the boat jnust have corae
headway or- she would be sunk as the
moving mass of wind and water struck
us, there was a difference about our
course; two of us wished to beach the
beat on a near by sand eplt on the
south shore. Clark was steering, and
having control, was determined to go
to the north shore. The boat, capable
of carrying three tons of wheat with a
ttn ppe ln an
also pome flour ln
addition to us three;
tended for The Dalles,
and the running gears of three wagons,
upon which 4 be people cat. making it
top-heavy ln such a storm. We bent
to our oars Just In time to turn the
boars bow from .the wind before the
shock came. "We were not capsized,
but considerable water was thrown in
to the boat. We were not completely
hidden from some Indiana ln a canoe,
who were a little in advance of us,
hugging close to the south ahore. They
went on their way and reported to our
friends camped at Linn ton that we
were certainly all drowned, as they
saw us go down in the "skookum
chuck" (strong water.) I had read of
the swiftness 'of the eagle'a flight, but
never saw it but that one time. The
first shock of the storm was the worst.
and we reached the north bank near
the foot of, Cape Hoax mountain.
Among our passengers was a Mrs.
McAlHster. with four children who. had
befriended Clark on - the road.' aij'd to
htlp this family down the rlver. had
been the chief reason for Clark's join
ing Crockett and myself inN asking the
good Dr. McLoughlin for the loan of
the Hudson Bay Company' batteau.
The lady gave no sign of fear when
we were ln extreme danger, but when
she got her last child safely onto land,
she, with a face white from the . in
tensity of her emotion, said: "Dan
Clark, I have been your good friend,
but you have Just put my children In
great danger without reason, and I
can never feel kindly towards you
aeraln." The reason, he gave me after-
i wards, was that In gaining the north
(bank there was a trail over which some
one could walk to Fort Vancouver and
, get relief In case we were -wlndbound
(long as thoie of 1843 had been.
Soaked to the skin, young and old.
Te made out to start a fire and, getting
some supper, laid us down on the wet
ground to sleep' and wake up next
morning with a covering of soft snow
over our scanty bedding. That night
we reached the Hudson, Bay Company's
taker made room for us all in his very
small house. ' At the Ingleslde near bed
time he must have been rrtnlnded by
the forlorn appearance of the children
of the uual yule cakes of bonny Scot
land's yule tide. At all events he quietly-
remarked that he lived alone and
"was not a good cook." but he had
made a little garden that summer past
and had a few wee turnips the little
ones might like. Ah, what a treat
those little white turnips were to those
Children, who had left their Missouri
homes eight months before. The next
night in entering the Willamette we
were hailed from the Jeck of the brig
Chenamas. (John H. Couch, captain,
Lieut. William Cushlng In charge) and
asked by the 'latter to come on board
and pass the night. We accepted.
Here was hospitality again. The officers
vacated their state-rooma for the wo
men and children, after giving us as
good a supper as the ship's larder could
furnish. This done, a bottle of wine
was opened and we were plied with
questions In regard to the journey we
had Just finished. Horw we crossed
rivers and mountain. The conduct
of the Indians. The game, etc. We
also askedquestions of the passage of
the Cape A lorn they had doubled, and
and the name brings me back to the
Chinook wind which im the molsture
Jaden southwest wind In the upper
Columbia valley. The trade wind of
the north Pacific. The wind of bless

Stockmen and' farmers in all this wide
extent now know the Chinook wind
as cutting the snow off their stock
ranges like raagTe wherever It touches.
The effect of the generous eupply of
mqisture It dispenses Is well conceived
by the Oregon youth who sang of his
beat girl:

THE FINANCIAL
SHOWS.
VOTE
Several things are made plain by the
passage of the financial bill In the
bouse. The republican party Is solid
ly in favor of the, gold standard, all
the republican members In that body
casting their votes for the . teajure.
The republicans will get powerful dem
ocratic aid on. all measures of fininclal
reform which will come up in the pres
ent congress, for the eleven icmocrats
who stood with the republicans In the
vote in the house' will undoubtedly be
re-enforced by several of their prty
in the senate when thetneasure gets
before that chamber, after the holiday
recess. The democratic party l split
nearer the middle oh the financial ques
tion in 1SS9 than it was In ISM. There
will be a stronger fight in the next
x . r t
the base money idea than was made fh I
the convention three years ago. and
this, of course, means a fight agiinst
Bryan.
These are a few points- which are
brought out by" the house vote which
are of the highest importance to the
country. Of course another fact is
made clear by the vote which has not
been referred to. The republican par
ty, is going to fulfill 11 Its promises,
expressed and implied, on the mone
tary issue. This, however, has - been
conceded all alongs Everybody who
knew, anything about the record of
the republican party, and who observes
the drift iof sentiment in these days,
knew that the action which the repub
licans have Just taken in the1 house,
which action will be- ratified In . the
senate, was certailn. The gold stand
ard, which was virtually made secure
by the triumph iof the republicans on
that Issue in 1S9. is going to be put
beyond the reach of assault by ?ny bo
gus money president- if one vhould hap
pen to be chosen at any time, whirh Is
exceedingly unlikely. It will require
the concurrent action of a repuJIatlon-
ist president and a repudiatl nlt con
aress to disturb the gold standard af
ter the bill which has gone to the sen
ate passes that body and receives, the.
executive signature. .
The break, ln the democratic line cn
the money q'ueslon, however, is of the
utmost consequence to the country. It
shows that one mof"e defeat Is nil that
will ever be needed to be dealt to the
reiudiators. Byran or whoever else is
selected by the 'next democratic nation
al convention, will fall far short In the
electoral college of the vote whfr'h the
base money condidate got In 1S?. .Ne
fact of the . political future Is painer
than this. . The drift agalrfst dishonest
money is much stronger than it was at
any time In the .jgftst. The defection
from the silverites wbich has occurred
in the states of -New York.' Mawichu
setts. Pennsylvania and Maryland, as
revea'.sd in the vote In the houe Is
bound to extend rapidly. All the latest
hrf!l!fv nhlrh h. hpftn felt toward
the base money faction of their .party
by the gold democrats will now burst
out into open revojlt. The democracy
NylH be split close to the middle on is

45 cent dollar men will uut up their
candidate and frame the rdatform, for
the, Western end of the democracy has
not yet dropped the 1S98 dementia, but
in that event a defeat like that which
struck Seymour or Oreeley is In store
for their candidate.
SALT ON ROADS.
The application of salt to roadbeds
will be tried this "V.Inter in New York.
It Is believed that salt will preveat" the
top soil from freezing, thus ch fating
the mud which invariably omes from
the thaw.
Laks in fire hose' can be repaired,
or a new section of hose inserted with
out the engine being shut down, by
use of a cut-off key which has a flat
base, supporting a vertical arm, Jn the
top of which Is Inserted a cranked bolt,
fitted with a shoe to cut off the water
when the bolt is screwed down.
Dr. Joseph Parker, of the city Tem
ple, London, said the other 'day thtt if
every curate were a saint. If every
dean were beyond reproach, and If
