The Democratic enumeration which comes 20
an end today has been farcical in many respects.
The one thing aimed at in this city any rate has
been to swell the number OF names as much as
possible. Accuracy, the prime factor in census,
has not been thought Of. The work has been
conducted purely Oh q partisan basis, with the
object of increasing Democratic power in it's strong.
holds. The enumerators have been under orders
to report nightly to the Tammany district
leaders," Yet, on the strength of such count,
Senate and Assembly districts are to be reappor-
toned and rearranged. 1t is sorry farce that is
nearly played out.
There is vacant house in Boodcrs' Block,
Montreal, which Judge Maynard can lease on
favorable terms.
An elevated railroad on Fifth-ave would be
just about as fitting and desirable as a toboggan
slide down Trinity stscplc.

we are informed not dozen copies are
taken daily. 1t shows hardness of
heart toward the Inland Empire which
Fit is impossible to account for in any
reasonable manner. The patronage of
the Inland Empire bestowed upon the
IOregonian, leaving out the part of prin-
pal entirely; should be sufficient to
attract to us an occasional intimation of
amiability. But not word do we find
OF any kindliness or good nature
from that source. Its reference to the
cascade canal is always of an i'll natured,
spiteful, ranking bitterness. No kind
offices and good treatment from the peo-
pie up this way ever seems to be worthy
of good turn. Even the tail organ of
the Oregonian, its Telegram has to sneer
at the prospect of an open Colum bia
river. 1t says:
There are no new developments in the
matter of letting the contract for finish
ing the cascade locks. Major Handbury
has forwarded recommendations, and if
contract is let the successful bidder
must put up $400 900 bonds.
The italic is ours. But who says the
successful bidder does not have to put
up? The drift of the Telegram is as
clearly shown in that word placed where
it is as need be shown to any intelligent
mind.
Friends of an open river must not ex-
pect any favors from the Oregonian, its
Telegram, if in fact from Portland, any
more than from the Union Pacific rail-
way.

The 40th wedding anniversary of
our old time friends, Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
ward Chambereau, will be here, Deem

friends have made arrangements for
suitably observing the event, at the fam
lily residence, in Portland. Verify long
flife and happiness have attended them
since 1852. a
4 Robert P. Hill is the name of the In
Fdividual who has been sporting that
mansard roof, and those rich, ebony
fringed and claret lined eyes about The
Dalles the past week or SO. He halls
from Evanston, Cook county, ILL.,, and is
evidently on the ragged edges OF long
continued jag. He is held in the city
Jail for an officer from Portland who is
expected up tonight. Just what Hill is
wanted for is not currently reported.
His kid gloves and other effects, includ-
ing letters from his father refusing any
more money except as stipulated twice
yearly, and from his mourning mother
brimful OF love and compassion for her
wayward son, show that he has seen
better days.
There is nothing surprising in the
fact, apparently just learned by some,
i'll certain quarters; that ''cranberries
grow in Oregon much better than at
Cape Cod" The surprise would be TO
find anything that may be planted
that the soil and climate of Oregon did
not improve. Cranberries are not an
exec ption to this universal rule. Mr.. E.
Stearns, formerly of Portland, who has
been residing at Alsea for several years,
has sent to his brother in the city
sample of cranberries raised on his
place, which for size and general excel
lence surpass any received from abroad.
These are the first cranberries seen in
Portland which were grown on Oregon
soil, and Allen at once filed request
for lot to be put up to go with the
Oregon fruit exhibit to the Colum bian
exposition. They will be sent over by
Mr.. S. and will be in keeping with the
rest of the exhibit.

The Oregonian and its Telegram, ap-
pear to be happy in the thought that it
will be long time before a boat can de-
liver its Dalles cargo at Astoria without
breaking bulk. This is from the Or
egonian:
In regard to the contract for construct
ing the locks at the cascades, nothing
more is known at the engineers Office
than was known a week ago. Major
Handbury recommended that one of the
proposals received be accepted by the
government, but that is long way
from the contract being let. The sue
cessful bidder must furnish satisfactory
bonds in the sum of $400, 900 before the
contract will be awarded, and it is not
every body who is capable of giving such
bonds that is willing to do so.
Maj. Handbury's recommendation sis
long way from the contract being let. :"
Here is evidence clear enough that the
Oregonian has an abiding hope that the
contract may not be let at all. Its init
nation with respect to the bonds is the
silliest prattle. There are responsible
names sufficient attached to Messrs.
Days bond to give it weight, although we
are free to admit that sit is not every
body who is capable of giving such bonds"
and they have filed it for approval along
with their contract, as recommended
by Maj. Handbury. The Oregonian
must know this. Then why print such
squibs as the above, which only reveal
to the public the cloven-footed malev-
olence of the writer? 1t is such rancor
that would seem to justify this whole
community in boycotting the Oregonian,
as was done in Walla Walla, where now,

The Dailes Markets.

THURSDAY, December 1.-The week
past has been more quiet than any
former one of the season, on account of
the farmers improving the time in plow-
ing and sowing fall grain. Prices re-
main steady on all staple goods and
most kinds of produce. There is a fair
stock of vegetables in the market and
prices are unchanged. Eggs are more
scarce than at any time this season.
Our dealers have not advanced prices
over last weeks quotation, but will be
compelled to do so unless shipment of
eastern arrives soon.
Good fresh butter is in better demand
and is shorter in supply with an ad-
vance in price in the near future. Pota-
toes are more plentiful at the quotation
and have downward tendency, that is
to say, a slight decline is expected.
Good clean green apples are dearer and
are marked up 25c per box. Poultry is
not coming into market as freely as it
did before Thanksgiving, but prices
remain as quoted.
The wheat market is stationary on
iOi hlOt W NO. anu Cl TO
60 cts. for other grades. The wool mar
ket is entirely bare and is off in quota
tions. Hides and pelts are weaker in
tone although former quotations are the
same. There is no change in the beef
market. Mutton sheep are scarce and
have turned spot dearer. Fat pork is
coming into market lively for slaughter
at the quotation.

A Contest in wyoming.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 30.-The final
count of the Carbon county vote makes
the legislature republican on joint ballot,
which will insure the election of re-
publican to the senate, unless the demo-
Gratis and populists, who will control the
lower house, unseat number of repub-
licans. This is likely, as the democrats
charge the republicans with having
stolen five members in Carbon county
hv means of false returns.

HELP. HELPi THE LADY FAINTS.

When sudden fainting spells come
upon a lady, you may always suspect
some uterine disturbances or trouble, or
some great disorder in the circulation and
nerve centers. A remedy that has al
ways proved successful in warding of and
removing the tendency to a recurrence of
fainting spells-that removes the cause
of them, cOrrects the circulation of blood,
and gives to the system that even rum
ming nervous energy so essential, is DR..

The Prescription is guaranteed to
give satisfaction in every case, or money
