Oregon may be proud that she is not
it," said an intelligent gentleman to THE
CHRONICLE man today. He had just re-
turned from Chicago, and he shows that
the Columbus fair is huge fake. IN

broke in by the back window, took
about So out of the till, couple of bot1
ties of liquor, and handful OF cigars[
Coroner Eastwood was summoned byN
Dr. Shackelford to attend an autopsy to-
dav and he decided that the dog was
dead. So too ought to be the man (so-l
called, who performed the role OF excl
cutioner. 1t was job disgustingly Of |
fensive to civilization. ~
c. N. Ross was captured and bronght(
back to The Dalles today by Marshal

Quoted before Justice Schutz this after1

T. McF. Patton was buried IN Salem
this afternoon by the Grand Lodge of
Oregon, A. F. & A. NJ. Services were
held in the Methodist church at O'Clock

The sharp criticisms indulged in by
the Oregonian, and similar publications,
on the lawlessness of the gangs of
people living in Gillian county is en-
tirely uncalled for, and if the great daily
was inclined to be decent it could very
easily set at rest the slanderous state
ments of the so called detectives.
Our old time friend Jacob Hunsaker,
called today to pay his farewell respects,
as he goes. to Everett to domicile in fu-
ture. 'Jake and l were boys together, )"
and as Everett is to be the home of the
whaleback, we feel that the place has
two big things to be proud of. MI.
Hunsaker is much more than an ordi-
nary citizen, wherever he lives.
People of The Dalles are to be con-
graduated that the old Houit place,
about eight miles from the city, has
] fallen into the hands of MIR. Jos. Sherar.
We understand that Mr.. S. will fit it up
as public park and resort, building an
I excellent road to it, and in other ways
encourage the formation of a gentlemans
driving club, talked of last summer by
THE CHRONICLE.
The lowest bid on the canal compile

quired to furnish bonds in the sum d
$400, 900. This they are prepared to do
and they are ready to go to work just al
quick as the Gods of the United State.
Engineering corps will let them-ther
we can predict a speedy completion o
of the work.
