We believe next year will witness


We believe next year will witness
greater progress in The Dalles than
any former one. The right spirit is
coming to tie surface, and people who
have hitherto been apathetic regard
ing enterprise are becoming awakened
to our possibilities as great CONNER
cial point. The fact is patent to every
observer that this city possesses natur
al resources unexcelled by any place
in the northwest, and rarely equalled.
The Columbia river, as a channel OF
commerce, should furnish quick and
cheap transportation to seaboard, the
great wheat belt surl ounding this point
should make it the wheat market OF
Eastern Oregon,zand the vast guam
titles of wool handled every season,
direct from the producers, should
lie source of wealth to our
business @men. Aside from these
attractions to capitalists, the fruits of
The DAlles ere the best in the north
west, and find ready sale in far eastern
cities. Then the fishing industry is
another and important factor of
grow tn. and in few years this will Le
a so1rce of great wealth and pros
perity. When the many advantages
tf The Da.les are known there will lie
no lack of capital seeking investment,
snd we may expect progressive era
in the history of this region the COM
ing spring.

The Mormon church authorities are
out in manifesto declaring the 10y
atty of church teachings and warning
the people of the United States that
any attempt to exclude the Mormons
from the franchise will be dangerous
encroachment upon civil and religious
liberty. After reading the manifesto
and recalling the bloody and brutal
record of Mormonism the average SEN
sible citizen will be tempted TO ex-
claim with Madame Roland, 20, Lib

The Pan-American congress, now in

IHo Idu-atneTlcau conSTesS, noW LII
session in Washington City, has for
its object the uni6cation of interests of
the different nations on the western
continent, and it is to he hoped the
most amicable relations may result
therefrom. The different republics in
this hemisphere should he unit for
their interests, as they know the mon
arches of Europe bear them no good
will. Since Brazil has become a re-
public, every nation on this side of the
Atlantic exists by the will of the gov
erned, and it cannot be expected
that the tyrants of Europe will at
tempt to supplant free institutions by
European despotism.

The ways and means committee is
at work on a tariff bill, and as usual
each portion Of the country desires
some one industry protected. Even
Virginia comes forward and wants
protection on iron ore. On these
various claims the committee must ex-

those articles on the tariff and free

est Gale, In connection with the White
chapel and Poplar unions, took fire last
night while the inmates were asleep, and
was burned with terrible results.
Twenty-six boys in the upper stories
were sufocate5. Fifty-eight were safely
taken from the burning building, amid
terrible excitement. Two matrons es-
capped by sliding down the water pipes.
| Several boys escaped in the same way.
| The superintendent repeatedly rushed
through the flames aud brought out q
numOer of inmates.
There were 600 persons in the instltu-
ton. The bodies of those sutfOcated
| were carried to the main hall of the
| building, which was still protusely deco
rated with Christmas greens. The hire
| was caused by al overheated stove. The
| female department., in which were 25O
| girls. was not touched. The boys re-
tired last evening IN the highest spirits,
having been promised presents and e
| New Years fete to-day. The scenes in
the main hall, where the bodies of the
dead boys lie, are narrowing. Relatives
and school fellows of those who perished
are loud In lamentations.
Further reports of the fire show that II
originated in the clothing room beneath
the boys doimitor,. Smoke and flames
| issuing from stove fiue alarmed those
sleeping on the top floor, and they es-
capped. Fire engines were promptly on
the spot. The employees of the adjacent
railway station rushed to the scene and
| rendered valuable assistance. The bodies
of two boys were badly burned, but it is
believed they were sulfocated before
burned. The ages of the dead range
| from Z to 10.
