Three things will come before the
next legislature that will demand men
of brains, intelligence, backbone and
honesty. One is new assessment law,
another a reduction in the fees of clerk
and sheriff of this county, and the third
the dalles portage railway bill. The
last is of infinite Importance to the pros
perity of The Dalles as well as Wasco
county and the whole Inland Empire,
and the railroad company will move
heaven an earth to defeat it. No man
of doubtful reputation can be trusted
with these interests, especially the last.

Republicans of The Dalles and Wasco
county should learn wisdom from the
past. Two years ago, next January, we
had four men to represent us at Salem.
One only, Senator Watkins, represented
his whole constituency. The other three
represented M. A. Moody and the Union
Pacific. One of them, unwittingly the
tool of smarter men, nearly jeopardized
the cascade portage bill by forcing an
Objectionable name upon it, as one of the
commissioners. Another killed the
dalles portage bill while the former
helped the murder by his vote. When
The Dalles asked new charter and a
new water bill, both bills had to be
slashed and altered to suit M. A. Moody
and the taxpayers of this city were in
formed, practically, they must accept
the bills as Moody had fixed them Or
nothing. Do the people of The Dalles
and Wasco county forget these things
Then let Nj. A. Moody name the state
delegates and we shall have them re-
peated in the next legislature.

STATE OFFICIALS.
We have no desire in the world to be

We have no desire in the world to be
offensive or personal but duty demands
that we should speak out with sufficient
plainness to be understood. The repub-
hcan county convention meets in this
city tomorrow. Upon the wisdom of
their choice of delegates to the state con-
vention depends largely the success of
the ticket. But mere party success is
relatively nothing when weighed in the
balance with other interests that are at
stake. Party fealty is right enough in
its place; but party fealty must be sub
servient to patriotism and devotion to
the interests of our homes and firesides.
The men we send to the state legisla-
ture must be men that we can trust.
The delegates to the state convention
must be of the same character. In the
choice of the latter the interests of rival
candidates of county offices should not
enter for a moment. The convention
should sit down fatty on any candidate
who attempts by jobbery or swapping of
votes to sacrifice the higher interests of
the people to subserve his own. No
tool of the railroad, nor no man even re-
motely connected with railroad interests
should go to the state convention.
Wasco county has tried such and wants
no more of them.

Newburg Graphic. A Portland ordi-
nance provides that no saloon shall be
within 400 feet OF public school build
ing. Last week Councilmen Merrick
offered an amendment, placing the in
tervening distance at 300 feet This
was done to accommodate a saloon
keeper who is located too near a school
house by few feet. If the ordinance
should fail to pass, the school-house
will, no doubt, be moved to accommo-
date the soloon man, provided it can be
located in any other direction where it
will not encroach on some other fellow &
territory. Just what they will do with
the school lhouses in Portland in the
near future is liable to become vexed
question.

We have no comment to make at pres
ent on the statement of county clerk
Crossen, published elsewhere in this
issue, further than this, that we deny,
emphatically that we have been publish
ing statements concerning the emolu-
ments of the clerks Office for political
effect. The estimates were made partly
from the published official records and
partly from statements made by those
who had the best possible opportunities
of knowing all about the matter. The
records for the past four months show
that the clerk received from the county
over s., 800 or over $3.50 month, ex-
elusive of fees for record work, licenses,
etc. The CHRONICLE need not repeat
the clerk was receiving a cent that he
was not lawfully entitled to. But even
accepting the statement of the clerk as
an estimate for the current year the in
come is outrageously high. 1t is idle to
say that 50 ,450 have been paid out for
clerk hire. Mrs. Sampson and Mr..
Huntington did the work in Geo. II.
Thompson's time and two clerks at 800
a month each can 20 the work now.
But why should the clerk charge the
CHRONICLE with writing for political ef-
feet? Does Mr.. Crossen own the Office
or has he lease of it, that statements
concerning it's emoluments should put
his tenure in danger? We cannot think
so and if it is any relief to him or others
we give him the assurance that the edi-
tor of this journal is seeking no Office in
the gift of the people.

The most powerful argument we have
yet heard for closing the worlds fair on
Sundays, was presented last Tuesday to
the senate committee on quadro-cen-
tennial, when a representative of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, a
society numbering 2S 900 persons, most
ly brakemen, pleaded for the observance
of Sunday in order that railway en-
ployes might have an opportunity for
rest. The appeal may pass unheaded,
but it is only such an one as a purely
secular government could consistently
entertain

Eternal vigilence is the price of
liberty. A powerful corporation with
strong local allies will do every thing in
their power to name the state delegates,
and the next Wasco and Sherman
county representatives. A pro-railroad
delegation means no dalles portage and
no opening of the river so far as railroad
influence can prevent them. Now is the
time to strike for our deliverance for all
time from the. grasp of greedy and
unscrupulous corporation. Will the
delegates to the republican convention
be equal to the occasion?

Bland Bill Nipped by a Crisp Breeze

WASHINGTON, March 25.-After all the
fuss the silver bill is dead. Speaker
Crisp killed it with his no. Some really
fine speeches were made, and that is all.
When it came to vote to lay on the ta-
table Speaker Crisp asked that his name
be called. The vote then stood las to
147. He then cast the deciding vote,
made it a tie, and thus endorsed Cleve-
land as leader.

FARMERS INSTITUTES FOR 1892.
To be held by the

MISSOURI STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.
By invitation, the State Board of Agriculture will hold
farmers Institutes per the following schedules. The meetings
will be free to all who wish to attend, men and women, and
who are interested in agricultural advancement.
The purpose of the institutes is for the farmers to get to-
gether and discuss subjects pertaining to the farm and farm
management. The Board of Agriculture will provide speakers
who will assist in conducting the institutes. They will be men
who have made a study of the different lines of farming, stock
raising, fruit growing. live stock diseases, good roads, SC. and
will be prepared to discuss the subjects practically and to give
the benefit Of their information. 1t is not expected, how
ever, that the speakers from a distance possess all the agri-
cultural knowledge, and are to do all the talking. They are to
cussing the subjects. There are farmers in every community
who, if they will do SO can impart much valuable information
and it is expected that any one who has knowledge of what to
do, or what not to do, to make farming successful will come to
the meetings and give US the benefit of what he knows.
The expenses of the speakers who are sent by the Board
of A Agriculture are met from funds provided by the state for
this purpose and the meetings as entirely free and not limited
to any class or organization.
The State Board of Agriculture was created and is maintain
ed to aid the farmers of the State in their efforts to make farm.
ing pay better and farm home life more pleasant. These insti.
tutes are held as a means of meeting with the farmers and dis
cussing with them how to secure these results.
1t is hoped that the farmers will avail themselves of the
opportunity to attend the institute held in their county.
The farm home is a most important factor in farming. and
the woman of the farm are especially urged to attend.
