DIR. Siddall has had about as much re-
creation in his four weeks outing as
one could well ft into that time. His
champion trout fishing exploit was one
day when 225 trout were landed. He re-

The Multnomah peoples party rushed
! to the front and resolved to "extend its
sympathies to the little newsboys" on a
strike in Portland just as heroically as
its allies elsewhere resolved to stand by
the Homestead and Occur d. Alene
strikers. From ''big to little'' exempli-
fes the idea. Once in power they'd let
this big government out at the little end
of the horn-about as the consolidation
reform party are doing with Portland
now.
The streets of the city today appear to
assume their wonted jollity, as the yisi-
tors to the Turner's festival at Portland
have all returned, rested, and resumed
their accustomed associations. It was q
pleasant surprise to Portland to meet 81
many Dalies people as attended this fes-
tival. The causes for which may be at
tributed to the Regulator fares, which
i enable person to make the trip at q
reasonable figure. In all about fifty
persons went by boat.

T that It was the planet Venus they were
+ gazing upon, and he compliments the
San Diegans on their clear sky, render
+ ing It possible to discern the planet
plainly with the naked eye. That's
nothing visible stars in daytime are 81
lcommon above The Dalles as not to ex
cite comment. Plain stars, too.

t as the government can we'll afford t
