has been placed in the hands of num-
Der of young ladies, appointed as sub
committee, who, Notwithstanding that
they belong to our best families and are
excellent persons every way, are -neces-
sarily lacking in the judgment and ex-
perience necessary for such work. Have
you any objection to give the readers of
the CHRONICLE your opinion on the mat
ter ST should be sorry said the
Mayor, 'tthat any words of mine would
be construed to reflect in any way on the
subcommittee OF young ladies. We
have no better young ladies in this city.
There can be noquestion as to their zeal
and earnestness and desire to do right,
but have felt, in common with many
other citizens, that the relief committee
made grave mistake when the ladies
delegated the difficult work of seeking
out the really needy and relieving them,
to younger hands. 1t was to avoid this
mistake that, in selecting the committee,
1 appointed only ladies of mature years
and extensive experience and acquaint-
ance and personally regret very much
that these ladies have seen fit to appoint
this subcommittee. In my opinion it
would have been much better, in case
any of them found it impossible to give
the necessary time or attention to the
business, to have resigned SO that an
other person, equally suitable, might
have been appointed to fill her place" :"

The second Eastern Oregon; district
fair opened today with fair promise of
a good display and a large attendance.
The stock exhibit will undoubtedly
exceed that of any other fair ever held
here. The fruit exhibit is not yet COM
plete, but it promises to be good. OF
the rest it is perhaps too early to form
an accurate opinion. The races will un-
doubtedly attract good many persons
from the country, and fair representa-
ton of these have already arrived. -
While there is not the least doubt that
The Dalles will rebuild in due time as
handsomely as before, the fact remains
THAT it will require many years of time
to replace the magnificent trees which
were stripped of their foliage and had
their shapely trunks blackened by the
great fire. At the time the giant pop
lars surrounding the old homestead OF
Mrs. Laughlin were planted the streets
in that locality ran with the waste water
from the first reservoir, as abundantly
as do now the streets of Salt Lake City.
This gave an impetus to ree-planting,
which was not possible later by reason
of taxed water and added trouble. The
completed system will do much, how
ever, to compensate for the old-time
life-giving element.

 Edward M. Jerome, son of Channcey M. Jerome, the man who did as much as any individual in this country to give fame to New Haven as mart for clocks, died Monday of kidney trouble. He was born in Bristol in 1926. He graduated at Yale college in 1850 and at the Yale law school in 1861. He practiced in Baltimore for one year and then went to Hartford, where he studied theology with Rev. Dr. Turnbull. He was pastor of the First Baptist church of Meriden and afterward had charges at Westield and Ansonia. Bronchial trou- bles compelled him to give up preaching. He then turned his attention to newspa- per work. He founded the Naugatuck Valley Sentinel and at the time of his death was owner and editor of the Shore Line Times. He leaves a widow and two M

Harper's Weekly: Because as United States senator and secretary of war MT.
 Davis used his influence to promote the spirit which led to the effort to overthrow the union, it should be supposed that his
 memory will command patriotic respect and applause, is certainly extraordinary.
 No one can complain that his friends should build his monument. But 1t should not be done as the monument of an American patriot, without protest.
 MT. Thomas Wilson Dorr, of Rhode Isl- and, was one of the most personally ire proachable and intellectually honest men in that state fifty years ago. In obed ence to his convictions, and at the risk of any cost to himself and to others, he at tempted by force of arms to overthrow it's government. After his total defeat and Imprisonment he was very properly pardoned by the state, and no one who personally knew him ever suspected him of selfish motives. But the people of Rhode Island have not erected monu- ment to commemorate his services to the state. If monument shauld be erected to Jefferson Davis for his services te his country, the statues of George Washing ton and Abraham Lincoln should be over thrown.
 "The Great Divide," a Denver, Colo rado, monthly, is the most peculiarly western publication out. If you want to take in the region of the cowboy, the hunter, the miner, the Indian, without going west, take The Great Divide, $1 a year. Supplements in form of fine col ored prints of canon scenery or Indian portraits come frequently. Its stories and sketches are redolent of the wild west; its illustrations to match, and num- erous. The "Great Divider's notes, some of them copied in this paper nearly every week, with their A. Ward style of spell ing, are feature. Here is sample one "The silent man may be dangerous and he ma knot, butt the silent mule iz shure too kick. This fabul teeches that thee less man sez, the less yu no what he'll doo."
 Judge Charles Johnson McCurdy died Monday morning at his home in Lyme. He was born in 1797, graduated from Yale in 1917, and is said to have been it's oldest graduate. He represented Lyme in the legislature for ten terms and the district in the senate one term. He was heutenant-governor two years, and in 1851 represented the United States at the court of Austria. In 1856 he was ar- pointed judge of the superior court, and in 1863 to the supreme bench. He was a member of the peace congress at Wash ington in 1861, and was retired from the bench by age limitation in 1867. Since then he has delivered courses of lectures before the Yale law school

hied to the field of duty, danger and death. They are fading away like the stars of the morning. Soon the last will enter the misty valley, and the "boys in blueo will all be the boys in white. In other lands poet has represented maim- ed soldiers begging bitter bread through realms their valor saved" Thank God, this is not true of our native land. Co., Iumbia has generously pensioned her dis abled soldiery, and thus the living crown the dead with golden crowns.
 Let us cultivate patriotism. This land is Gods modern Israel in the west. Deep down in it's rocky beds He hid the exhaust less stores of oil, iron, copper, silver and gold. For the yeoman He prepared the unmeasured prairie and river-bottom. By the music of countless waterfalls He at tracted the mechanic. For transporta- tion He planned the incomparable rivers, lakes and gulfs. When the soil was ready, and the fitness of time had come, He planted the Mayfower, and watered it with tears and blood. His hands shielded from the deadly tomahawk of the savage, and the deadlier missive of the Father land. In the hou1 of peril He invented the Monitor, and sent Lincoln and Grant to pilot the ship of state into the peaceful harbor of an indissoluble union. For ever dear to our hearts be the history of a nation, written by bayonets dipped In the crimson tide of war. Such country brings the angels from their star-lit thrones. and invokes the supreme aid of the infinite Jehovah. Let the sons and daughters of the republic join hands with the martyr-dead, forever to cherish ana defend the fair heritage of our fathers. Let none but patriots command our arm- ies. Patriots alone must fill the o1nces or the nation. In the pulpit and the press, in the school and the home, the lesson of patriotism must be taught. Let the first inkline of treason be buried under na- tion's wrath. Foster the love of liberty and fatherland till every heart shall be the censor of ardent loyalty and undying patriotism.
 Let us complete the temple of Ameri- can nationality. Broad acres yet remain to be inhabited. Foreign idiosynerasles remain to be assimilated. National vices remain to be eliminated. National vir tues solicit introduction, growth and ma turity. A prophets eye is not needed to foresee Columbia's future glory In pop. ulation she advances into the hundreds oI millions In agriculture she Is queen or the world. In wealth she is the banker of nations. In government she IS ootn model and teacher. In liberty she IS the ideal of the poet, reformer and patriot. Tn virtue she is the usher of mankind. To this end live lives worthy of the dead. Let the crown of the dead gleam with the gems of noble citizens, patriot sons, worthy of their patriot sires. And, while the republic advances to it's sublime con summation, ''liberty, enlightening the world" enshrine in the hearts deep af- lection the heroic martyrs of the past, and, mailing the stars and stripes to the topmost spire of our incoming greatness, let us forever memorialize their virtues and valor by flowers, tears and noble lives.

Bargains are beginning to show themselves.
 Bargains, you know, come from somebody's blunders. Nobody makes goods and sells them at a loss for fun. The maker expects a profit; So does the seller; but there's many slip in handling the best of goods.
 The prices just now depend altogether on what goods are lleft in wholesale hands. A little surplus causes a break. A reduction, therefore, is not evidence against the accepta- fbility of the goods.
