High Water.

The Columbia is again having high time
OF it. The water is about az high d it was
in 1876, and is still going ur. The~sailrosd
between the Upper and Lower Cascades is
submerged, thus rendering through travel
impossible. The company's orders at Walla
Walla are not to issue any tickets. This will
deprive great many of the opportunity of
spending their money at the State Fair.
Waliala is at present an Island. The up
Per river, ho weser, is falling rapidly, and
We may soon expect the lower river to follow
suit. No freight has been received by the
company at Portland for several days; and
the merchants are taking every precaution to
secure their gos'ds from damage. The gener-
al opinion is that the water will attain a
greater depth than it did in 1876 Tele-
graphic communication with Portland is for
the time being suspended.

Green's August Flower in all towns and vii

reap harvest for themselves at the expense
of the afflicted. This medicine was introduced
in 1868, and for the cure of Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint, with their effects, such as
Sour Stomach, Costivenes, Sick Stomach, Sick
Headache, Indigestion, Palpitation of the heart

GooD.-From reliable authority we learn
that the road across the Blue Mountains, by
way Of the Warm Springs and Summerville,
is new in excellent condition. The bridges
are all safe and substantial. This,
coupled with the fact that the arrangements
to have freight from Portland to Blue Noun

Walla Walla, will bring the Summerville
trade over this road. The only wonder is

MILTON LETTER.
MILTON, june %, 1881

MILTON, June Z8, 1850.
EDS. LEADER-Gentlensex: It seems to be
impossible for .the people Of Pendleton,"
when in the hands Of the manipulators, to do
ANYTHING without having it tinctured with
trickery. At first they proposed to have a
mass meeting to consider the question of Di-
vision; next they "suggested that eonven-
ton be held and each precinct BE- represented
by delegates-oue delegate to each so votes
cast for Congressman, and one for each frac-
tion over 20 votes, Blalock precinct to be en-
titled to two delegates. This re- presentation
is very fair, and fancy will commend itself to
all If the ''people Of Pendleton" aforesaid
had stopped at that, all would have been we'll
But they further Recommended that no prox-
les be allowed" They are evidently anxious
to have 'full representation" Forty-seven
delegates would be nice thing to have for
day or tive. 1t has never dawned npon ''the
people of Pendleton" how much it costs to
make a trip to the county seat from the ends
of this small county Of ours. They have
| never realized that it is no mean hardship for
people to leave their business, lose time and
| ~
reason, simply because; they are remote from
the county seat. Then, again, judging by
their conduct in the past, these same people
of Pendleton," " headed by ''Boltingjim' would
not abide by the decision of any mass meeting
or convention that did not allow than to eek"
things ''Rule or ruin" is their motto, and
they have been both ruling and running the
people of this precinct and county too long.
If the citizens of Pendleton are in earnest
about this matter, let them have a call for a
convention with the names of responsible and
reliable men attached to it. 'The people OF
Pendleton" who have been connected with
every dirty political trick in the county for
years cannot expect the people outside of Pen
dleton to have any confidence in their profess
sions of public good. Let ''Boltingjimo" the
poll-book snatchers, the tally-sheet manipulate
ors, and all the rest of the political scavengers
stand to one side and allow the honest citi-
zens of Pendleton to say what they want to dc
and they will be met half way by all the vot.
ers Of the county to decide this or any other
question. Men who only provoke the con
tempt of their fellow citizens are not the ones
to inspire with confidence, and no matter how
honest their intentions may be, they will Ger
tainly be met with suspicion and distrust.
Yours Truly,
DEMOCRAT.
