mittee willSRoId meeting at The Dalles
on Saturday next in Mckinley hall, the

Hon. F. P. MAYS spent few days in
The Dalles. His family is still at Cloud
Cap Inn, but expect to return to Port
land this week.
Mr.. F. T. Sargent OF Wapinitia, has
changed his residence to The Dalles,
chiefly on account Of the superior edu-
cational facilities attainable here.
F. johnson, of Mountain Home, Idaho,
the desert region which has been made
to blossom as the rose by irrigation on
large scale, is in The Dalles today.
Mr.. Jas. Benson, OF Smile, has con-
tributed to the Wasco collection of fruit
for the Portland exposition and worlds
fair, peaches which measure 1134 inches
in circumference.
Mr.. Manley, who came in yesterday
with another load of wheat, says the
shower was quite a brisk one on the
road, completely saturating an ordinary
coat.
Mr.. j. o. Mack has returned from the
Salem fair. He says it was the best ex-
hibition ever given by the state, and if
the articles could be taken to Chicago
next year, would of themselves make a
creditable display for Oregon.
Mr.. H. Corson, an old-time and high
ly-respected citizen of The Dalles, is re-
ported seriously i'll. About two years
ago Mr.. Corson was practically paral-
yzed, and has never since fully recov-
cred from that affiiction.
The potato crop has been reported
short in spots; but the prospects are
that the reports will prove to be too pre-
vious, according to the work of the
clouds Yesterday and today, as was the
case with grain last June.
Mr.. Frank Roach returned from Port
land this morning. He says the rain
yesterday did not in the least interfere
with the Sovereign Grand Lodge process
sion, and the consolidated city showed
off in its gayest attire, the admiration of
all guests and residents.
Another important industry is to be
added to the list of manufactures in
Spokane, which will be large paper
mill, to be operated by ST. Paul COM
pany, of which Mr.. JsNB. Streeter, of
that city. is at the head.
Mr.. Charles n. Wait, secretary of the
democratic state central and campaign
committees, 125 First st. Portland, wish
es us to say that all democrats visiting
Portland are invited to call and confer
with memberso of the committee in re-
gard to matters in their respective To-
calities; and, it is presumed, receive an
antidote for THE CHRONICLE doctrines of
national preservation.
In calling attention to the elaborate
display of Dress Goods and Cloaks, in
the handsome show windows at Pease &
Mays today, Mr.. Pease desires us to saw
that the credit of the nice arrangement
is due to Mr.. Briggs taste. One window
is devoted wholly to Dress Goods and one
to Cloaks, which the ladies cannot help
but admire, and which seems to say:
For further inspection ''Please step in
side.''
Frank g. Lentz, a Pittsburg wheel
man who is making tour of the world.
will pass The Dalles some day this
week. He left Spokane at 80 Satur-
day morning, via Texas ferry, Walla
Walla and Pendleton. At Hood River
an. effort should be made to get him to
make a detour and take in Cloud Cap
Inn, over twenty-seven miles of the best
road in the United States.
