VALUE OF HOME SUPPORT.

luce, and of home market. People

etables, merchandise or manufactured
goods which are advertised at cheaper
rates, but which are dearer than home
prices, when to the first cost are added
the 'expense OF carriage. The following
IS but n of the many cases in point:
A citizen desiring to purchase a table
approached q dealer for that purpose,
and asked the price of the article. The

what his hay cost him in the stack,
answered, $3.50; forgetting taxes, the
wear and tear If horses, harness, ma
ehinery, and the value OF his W time,
labor, etc. People do a great wrong by

the why and wherefore of the richness

naturally follows, and We answer: The

take the products OF the home ranches.

The River and Harbor bill, as
passed, is all the people of Eastern
Oregon could expect from the present
congress, and we hope our senators
will not attempt to incorporate in this
liberal appropriation measure an extra
sum of $2.80O,O00 for the boat rail-
way above this city, and which very
probably would insure its defeat when
returned to the lower house. Sena-
tors Dolph and Mitchell have always
been very friendly towards the i'm
provement of the Columbia river, and
the people are under many obligations
to them for favors received in the
shape of increased appropriations for
Oregon in the River and Harbor bill;
but, on this occasion, it will not do to
test the temper Of the Democratic ma
jority in the lower branch of congress
by adding to the amount the sum
necessary for the project to overcome
the impediments to navigation be-
tween The Dalles and Oelilo., We
will admit there is great need for the
latter, and the producers would gladly
welcome congressional aid sufficient to
finish the boat railway; but this is too
much to expect at one session, and
they are fearful that by asking too
much they may receive too little.
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1892-05-14

The passage of the River and Har-
Dor bill, with the clause providing for
the completion of the locks at the Cas-
cades by contract, by the lower house
of congress, as announced in dispatch
published elsewhere, is welcome news
to the producers of the Inland Empire.
No fear of the success of the bill In
the senate need be entertained, as that
body has always favored liberal ap-
preparations for public improvements;
and, with this measure q law, the
present session of congress will have
done more for an open river than any
one that has ever assembled IN Wash
ington City. Too much praise cannot
be given to Hon. Binger Hermann for
his indefatiguable efforts in inaugu-
rating the contract system in regard to
the work at the Cascade Locks and
for the passage of the bill through the
Democratic house. He has always
been an earnest worker for the oest
interests of his constituents, and we
this the browning act of his
career. Mr.. Hermann
has made more votes by this bill pass
ing the house than if he had spent six
weeks canvassing every portion of his
district.

Relief in suicide.

ST. LOUIS, May 12-The Identification
of the body of Mr.. John Williams bv his
wife at the morgue today brought forth
a pathetic story of suicide as a release
from proverty. Mr.. ard Mrs Williams
came to this city from Warrensburg, Mo-,
where they had been married two years
ago. Williams secured work, but was
discharged about month ago, and had
not been able to obtain employment since.
All their money was soon spent, and
they were forced TO sell their household
belongings to obtain food. Being re-
duced to the last extremity, and thwarted
In every attempt to better their condition,
they determined to take their lives.
Having no money to buy poison, they
decided to drown themselves, and
selected different points Oh the river to
accomplish the purpose. Mrs. Will
Jams went to the foot of Spurce street
and threw herself into the water. She
was seen by boatman, who went to her
rescue, and caught her just as she was
sinking the third time. The woman was
taken to the hospital, where she recovered.
A day later, thinking her husband
might have been rescued, she began a
search for him, but failing in this, she
again On last Friday sought the river,
where she made another attempt to
drown herself. Again she was rescued
By boatman, who pulled her out of the
water with boat hook. Having recove
cred from her second attempt, Mrs Will
Jams went to The morgue. today in search
of her husband and found the body on a
slab. She told her story to the attend
ants and went away. When the police
were notified they began search tor the
woman, but have not been able to find
her, and 1t is feared she has at last sue
ceeded in ending her life.

The War In Venezuela.

BARCELONA, Venezuela, May. 1.-THE
situation In Venezuela is not materially
changed. Desertions continue from the
government army. The deserters are
principally peasants and laborers recently
conscupted. Several sklrmishes have
taken place between the advance post of
the revolutionists and government forces,
but there has been no important fighting
reported SINCE the battle at Palito, In
which the troops sent out from Puerto
Cabello by Palacio's general were defeated
At Laguayra and Puerto Cabello all is
quiet at present, and there is no longer
any difficulty in discharging or loading
cargoes. The normal condition of affairs
Is largely restored No definite news has
been received from the seat of the revolu-
ton. 1t is generally supposed, however,
that the cause of rebellion is progressing
favorably. In all likelihood, the next big
battle will be fought at La Victoria. The
revolutionists surround that town on all
ides, preventing communication between
t and Caracas. Palscio's troops cannot
render any aid to the besieged town.
Crespo's men occupy all the commanding
heights around La Victoria. The iuIl now
existing cannot last long. Crespo con-
When full supply shall have been
obtained, he will assume the offensive.
Until now he has been content to main
tain his position around Valencia and La
Victoria.
