clearly . DiscrImInation.

The CHRONICLE, is no alarmiEt. If it
warns the people that their interests are
threatened by the Union Pacific and
that that corporation will move heaven
and earth to crush the peoples boats
and keep the river closed, it is because
it believes these things to be true, it had
almost said k,aoics them to he true.
While the friends of the Union Pacific
in this city, are assiduously spreading
peoples boats are negotiating for their
sale to the railroad, that company is try
ing by every means fair, and foul, to
crush them out of existence. The fol-
lowing letter addressed to Goldendale
merchant, and fac simile of one, we
are told, that has been sent to every
other merchant in that town, has been
handed us for publication. It says as
plainly as words can do it, that if the
Goldendale shippers are not satisfied
with these rates, the Union Pacific will
make rates to suit them. The rates Of
fered are below the railroad rates on the
same class of goods from Portland to The
Dalles, and ten cents a hundred less
than from Portland to Grant, when one
reckons the teaming charge of 35 cents
from Grant to Goldendale. Hitherto
the Goldendale merchants have stood
manfully by the Regulator. Their own
interests, as well as the interests of the
county from which they receive their
support demand that they should not be
allured from this allegiance The peo-
ple's boats forced concessions from the
old monopoly that have put thousands
of dollars in the peoples pockets. To
accept this new allurement would be
treason and death.

PORTLAND, March Is, 1892.
Messrs. = = Goldendale, Wash.
Gentlemen-We have decided to pub
lish the following rates from Portland
to Goldendale via Grants:
First class, rs cts. I'd rs cts. Sd 75 cts.
4th 70 cts. 9TH rs cts. A 20 cts. salt 60 cts.
per 100 lbs, subject to western classifca-
ton.
These figures are based on the teaming
charge of 35 cents per 100 lbs. from
Grants, the railroad company accepting
balance of through rates as their proper
tion up to Grants.
The company not responsible for the
maintenance of a 50 cent teaming
charge.
In making these rates we consider
that they are sufficiently low to warrant
merchants in Goldendale shipping all
their business via Grants, and / trust
that they will see fit to do SO. In case
we have rnisjudged the situation, and
our rates are still to high to warrant you
in giving us your business, we will be
pleased to hear from you.
Yours Truly,
B. CAMPBELL.

Thanksgiving Day in New York City.
1t used to be that Thanksgiving day in
New York was, like the day all over the
eastern part of the country, day which
centered around dinner. This dinner
was inevitable and the families saw each
other then that never saw each other in a
group at any other time. The prodigal
returned for it; the poor relation looked
forward to it and praised it as it pro-
gressed heavily through its different
courses; and the several members of the
family tried to be ulare polite and genial
and loving toward one another at that
meal than at any other of the three times
S65 other meals of the year. There are
some who like family dinners, and there
are other wicked ones who sympathize
with the young woman who assented to
having family dinner by saying, eyes,

Editor Chronicle:
If my memory serves me right, there
was resolution passed at the late
republican county convention pledging
the legislative nominees to the construc-
tion of the "dalles portage" but have
looked in vain to see it appear in the
papers. Even the Sun which is harping
on railroad song, passed it over in
silence. Has some enterprising brother
suppressed it? ALPHA.
The omission of the resolution, SO far
as THE CHRONICLE is concerned, was
simply an oversight on the part of the
reporter, who remembers that it was

GilIaume the priest, bishop of Clermont,
who founded the college for Jesuits at
Paris late in the Eighteenth century.
This beard was long, wavy and soft as
silk. But his beard was his downfall.
His brother bishops became jealous of
it, and decided that it must come off.
This was decreed at q secret council,
and the next morning when the priest
entered the chapel three men met him
with soap, hot water, razor and shears
and laid hold of him. He broke away,
skedaddled and took refuge in castle.
where he died of vexation.
The only exceptions where boards
have not been considered as advanta-
geous appurtenances were among the
Germans, the Egyptians and in the early
colonial days among the Puritans. The
ancient German youth was not allowed
to shave until he had slain an enemy In
battle, and among the New England
Puritans long boards We're sometimes
forcibly reaped, because the idea pre-
vailed that pride lurked behind vener-
able beard. 1t was not until the begin
ming of the present century that the
long beard went entirely out of fashien.
Since then smooth faces have been on
the increase, and any person who will
take the trouble to notice the men who
pass given point for an hour on any of
the busy streets of Chicago will see but
a very few long boards. 1t Is not inn
probable that in another century, II the
beard is continually cropped, the long
beard will no longer grow and will be-

the laws were made by ignorance too
dense even to steal intelligently. Dnr-

saddled with debts aggregating $3.50
