A man by the name of Gaskel has
been working the Dufur neighborhood
by obtaining additions to the member
ship of an alleged association whose
members have the privilege of buying
everything at the lowest wholesale price
in consideration of the purchase of a
certificate of membership, which he
offers at the price of SIX dollars. Gaskell
offers to furnish the WEEKLY CHRONICLE
$50 we are informed) to members of the
association for dollar year and the
other papers of the city for a dollar and
half each. The Times -Mountdineer
denied some time ago, having made any
such arrangement with anybody. The
managers of the Sum made similar as
sertlon today to a Chronicle cores
pondent, and the CHRONICLE knows
nothing of Gaskel whatever. He has no
authority from this Office to represent
himself as its agent. The safest plan is
to steer clear of him altogether. Pur-
chasing agents don't do business that
way. They are always too glad to get
patrons. without charging them prem
ium for the privilege of becoming such.
A purchasing agent always gets his COM
mission from the party from which he
makes his purchases, no matter how low
he may furnish the goods.

was first observed by Judge Condor, who
broke in the door and found the fire con-
fined to lot of bed clothes lying on the

superintendent Farley viii Resign Hi
Charge in Another Month.

Charge in Another Month.
A meeting of the state portage rail
way commissioners was held yesterday
afternoon in the st. Charles hotel for the
purpose of hearing the report of Super
intendent Farley. The board discussed
the freight schedule formulated by Mr..
Farley and unanimously approved it.
1t was the sense of the meeting that the
rates fixed by Mr.. Farley are not too
high for the present.
superintendent Farley,,s report
showed that the portage road is almost
completed, with the exception of the ex-
treme ends of the two inclines. This
work cannot be finished at present, ow-
ing to the high state of the water.
Some anchoring will also have to be
done in order to hold the trestles down,
in the emergency of extreme high water.
The road can be operated, however, and
it is being operated with the aid of the
government engine used in the construc-
tion of the locks.
Although the road is equipped with a
good gravity system and plentiful
supply of water, Superintendent Far
ley deems it advisable to carry from
$40, 900 to $25, 900 insurance. He there
fore had the plant insured for $22, 900.
Superintendent Farley places the
running expenses of the portage road at
$1,000 month and figures that the
earnings of the road will amount to
about $500 a month. He arrives at
this conclusion from the amount of
freight now passing to and from The
Dalles.
In concluding his report Superintend-
ent Farley says that he feels certain
that the state has secured a good port
age system for transporting freight
across the Instructions to navigation at
the Cascades, and that the people of
Eastern Oregon have secured all the re-
lief they asked for. He asks to be re-
leased from the onerous duties of the
superintendency on the first of Novem-
Der or sooner if possible. As for the
cost of the road, he expressed the opin-
ion that it could be completed without
going to the limit of the $50, 900 ap-
The present portage system is oper-
ated by crew of nine men. The roll
ling stock consists of twelve fiat cars
and four box cars, put here at cost
of $500. The engine that was shipped
from Philadelphia on the 18th of this
month cost $4S00, and by the time it
gets here, freight included, it will cost
nearly $4,000.

Harvesting and threshing is generally

The corn in Umatilla county is is unus-
