The city council will meet to nor row night and will probably take some action regarding the disburse- nsnt of the balance on hand in the general fund, amounting to about s2,00O. The most popular plan seems to be to redeem the outstanding con tingent fund warrants and place that fund where it should be-On cash basis. All contingent fund warrants are held by our citizens who took them sappesiHg them to represent cash, only to find out later that they could do nothing with them. These war rants are hsid by persons to whom the money will be a godseud inst at present. Most of the warrants were earned by. hard working men and women who performed manual labor for the city.

Our local columns last evening con-
tained the intelligence that new COM
pany had been incorporated in this city
for the purpose of building portage road
between this city and point "above
He'll Gate in Sherman county," The in
corporators are D. M. French, Robert
Mays, Max Vogt, A. S. Macalister, Hugh
Glenn, Joseph T. Peters and B. F.
Laughlin; all leading business men and
capitalists of this city. The movement
is exceedingly timely and in the right
direction. A portage road that will
cross the Deschutes and tap Sherman
county is just the thing we want. 1t
will be in order to have survey made
of the best possible route and an estis
mate of the cost. When this is done
we shall be disappointed if we are not
able to show that the Oregon side is,
after all as cheap and far more feasible
than the Washington side. 1t will be a
proud day tor the CHRONICLE when it
sees Sherman and Wasco counties unit
ed by bands of steel. May that day be
rapidly fastened.

From the Portland Telegram we learn
that there is quite little tempest among
the grocers of Portland because, as they
allege the sugar refneries of San Fran
cisco are discriminating against Port
land by selling sugar to interior towns
in Oregon and Washington cheaper than
they do to Portland. 1t is claimed to be
an ''undeniable fact" that Claus Spreck-
els sells sugar cent a pound cheaper
to Dalles merchants than to Portland
ones" If this is true it is really awful,
and no wonder these Portland merchants
have sent committee of two to San
Francisco to spend with Claus Speckels
to have mercy on them lest The Dalles
get away with the whole Portland sugar
trade. The truth is. only one or two
Dalles merchants buy any sugar in San
Francisco, and they emphatically deny
that they get any favor from Claus
Spreckels over Portland merchants,
They say that by buying their sugars in
car lots they can wholesale it cheaper,
with freight added than the Portland
merchants do to persons who ship in
small quantities. In other words they
claim that they pay as much as the Port
land merchants do but are willing to sell
for smaller profit. The difference in
freight between car lots and smaller
quantities is all the advantage they
have

''Do you wish to know the quickest
way to cure sever cold? We will tell
you. To cure cold qickly, it must be
treated before the cold has become set
tied in the system. This can always be
done if you choose to, as nature in her
kindness to man gives timely warming
and plainly tells you in natures way,
that as punishment for some indiscre-
ton, you are TO be afflicted with cold
unless you choose to ward it off by
prompt action. The first symptoms of a
cold, in most cases, is dry, loud cough
and sneezing. The cough is soon followed
by a profuse watery expectoration and
the sneezing by a prosuse watery dis
charge from the nose. Iii severe cases
there is a thin white coating on the
tongue. What to do? 1t is only necessary
to take Chamberlain Cough Remedy in
double doses every hour. That will greatly
lessen the severity of the cold and in
most cases will effectually counteract it,
and cure what would have been a severe
cold within one or two days time. Try it
and be convinced" Fifty cent bottles for

One OF the best stlllustratlons possible
nj q person preparing for sickness or

riation, waA shown last week in the
rnse OF Sarah Watson, an ngod lady
who 10 months ago became mem :
ber or the Mutual Aid Union, OF which
W. j. Moore Is superintendent, and
whose Office Is at No. 8 West Seyent Il
street. This lady lived with her daugh-
ter, but when she WIS taken sick was
given to understand that she would
have to seek a home elsewhere. She
wus taken in by Mrs. Shields, residing
on Pine street, and during her illness
OF six weeks was enabled to pay her
board with the 50 which she received
each week from tho Mutual Aid Union.
Whom she became conyalescent, one
week ago yesterday she started out
TO take n walk and fell In the street.
AS she was unconscious and unknown,
the ambulance was summoned, and
she was taken to tho Delaware Hospi-
tai, whore sho died without re4ainilg
consciousness. She would have been
buried In Potter's Field us a pauper,
had not Undertaken Wilson. who had

OF the Mutual Aid Union secreted-
about her person. He Immediately notl
He'll the officials OF that organization
In this clty,and they gave orders to
give her decent burial, in the Will
mington and Brandywine Cemetery,
and send the bills to them.
Ihe expenses of the funeral were
eHl, and in addition to this there was
huoctor'5 bill, which made the amount
even more than what she was insured
for, Notwithstanding this, tho bills
were paid promptly. During the time
the deceased was member sho only
paid ZIG into the association, and this
prompt and praiseworthy notion on
their part. not only saved her from n
panper's grave, but also proved that
this is one of the best and most relia-
BILE institutions OF the kind in exls-
tence.
