A Ohivalric Welcome.

Last evening, at the regular meeting of
Friendship Lodge, No. 9, K of P, a very
interesting session was held, and there
were visitors present from several of the
neighborilg lodges. After work was
through in the rank of Knight, the
Knights adjourned to Mr. G E Haight's
restaurant, where repast was served
which did ample justice to him as q
caterer. In sparkling water and delicious
coffee and tea toasts were drank to the
order, to the guests and to Friendship
lodge. After the banquet the members
from Goldendale conferred the degree of
the Grand Orient on several applicants.
Those present from neighboring towns
were: Angus Cameron and NJ A Murchie,
Wasco; DR. Stewart, G Darland, P c, ]
W Shower, P C, James Leverett, G G, G G
Alvord, o D Sturgis, Goldendale, Wash; /;

as well satisfied with the efforts of the
Knights to entertain the visitors, and the
event will long be remembered.

HONEST POLITICS.

The following from Democratic
exchange shows the peculiar kind OF
logic the party uses to support It's
fusion tactics: "We want to empha-
size one fact very apparent; that the
large vote for Weaver in this state has
special significance. And first there
are some things it does not mean. 1t
does not mean any endorsement of the
erratic knlght-errantry of Pennoyer;
it does not mean that the party fol-
lowed him or forgave him; it does not
mean that the third party has any
standing within its lines; it does not
mean any leaning or allegiance to
Weaver. 1t means none of these; but
it does mean that the Democrats of
Oregon are loyal and true, and are
ready to make any honorable sacrifice
to secure party triumph" If vote
for Weaver did not mean an endorse
ment of Weaver and Pennoyer, then
it meant nothing, and was not exer-
cised with the least degree of inte)l;-
gerce. The Democratic and the Peo-
ple's party may be the same on politi-
cal principles, and, therefore, support
lug the one is endorsing the other; but
if their positions on national affairs are
opposed to each other, then there are
no community of interests between the
two, and a member of either voting for
the candidates for electors of the other
is traitor to his party and should not
be considered as possessing the cour-
age of his convictions or as exercising
the privilege of the elective franchise
as a patriotic American citizen should.
There can be no harmonious mixing
of Republican and Democratic, or of
Democratic and Populist policies with
honest Americans, who intelligensly
understand the ballot, and the purpose
aimed at by its intelligent use in our
system Of government. The sophistrJ
of politicians may attempt to make
any end justify the means; but it will
not accomplish this purpose with men
of discernment who vote conscien-
tiously and with firm belief that the
doctrines of their party are the most
subservient to the welfare Of the ma
tion. And the fusion vote on Pierce
in this state at the last election shows
that Democracy is honest In its politi-
cal opinions and cannot be led by de-
signing scbemers.

The Regulator Line,

down the river on the Regulator was most
enjoyable. and tine 1--WE" of this paper was

where, and the breeze Which constantly
comes through the gorge of the Columbia
stimulates the circulation of the blood to
greater activity. Capt. Fred Sherman was
at the wheel, and a more cautious and safer
pilot meyer guided helm. Old, familiar
scenes were passed on each bank of the
river, and the time passed pleasantly in
conversation and comments on occurring
events. Our companions were those who
could furnish mental pabulum for the most
fastidious. There was no lack of sparkling
anecdote or "reminiscences of adventures in
early days in this part of the northwest.
About half-pasr o'clock the Cascade Locks
were reached, and after stopping an hour to
transfer freight and passengers, the return
trip was made, and the lights of The Dalles
appeared IN full view about half-past I.
The officers of the boat always use every
effort to entertain guests. and Purser
Hampshire and Steward Merrill are untir-
ing in their attentions. At any season of
the year, more agreeable route to reach
Portland or towns on the Columbia below
this city could not be travelled than this.
and as it is great factor in opening up the
river to the commerce of the Inland EN-.
pIre it becomes matter of self-interest
that 1t should receive liberal patronage.
Since the portage has been constructed and
the opposition line of boats running, very
healthful trade trade has been inaugurated,
and the Regulator line of freight and pas
senger steamers haye become firmly estab-
lished,

Hood River Ditch.

Hood River Glacier: At the meeting
of the stockholders of the Hood River
Water Company held last Saturday,
Messrs. Smith, LaFrance and Lyman
Smith subscribed $500 each, bringing
the amount up to the statuary require
ment of half the capital stock, with a
margin Of $3.50 to go on. On motion the
company proceeded to organize by elect
ing three directors as follows: P. u.
HInrichs, s. j. LaFrance and M. B. Pot
ter. A committee of three consisting of
Hon. E. L. Smith, j. F Armor and j. 81.
Cradlebaugh, was appointed to draft by
laws, and report them at the meeting this
afternoon. After adjournment, the di-
rectors met and elected P. D. Hinrichs,
president, and J. Fl. Cradlebsugh, secre-
tary. The company Is now ready for
work as soon as the right of way is se-
cured, and we think after talking with
Mr.. Winans, there will be no trouble
about this. Attend the meeting to-day
and pass judgment upon the bylaws.

Fighting Landslides.
Oregonian

The blockade on tine Northern Pacific and
the Union Pacific railroads continued yes
terday. No through trains left on the
Northern, owing to the washout of bridge
and it is improbable that any will leave be-
fore Tuesday. The bridge will be repaired
by that time. A "bobtaif' arrived from
Tacoma Yesterday morning with number
of passengers, and another arrived in the
evening.
Matters on the Union Pacific are as bad
as ever. One of the passengers who came
as tar as Bonneville, where the landslide
occurred, on the train and transferred to
the Portland boat yesterday, said that there
are several steam plows at work, but they
are making no headway. As fast as the
track is cleared there are other slides and
the road is blocked again. No effective
work can be done until the earth hardens.
The company will probably build tempo
rary track around the obstruction and run
trains in this way until the track can be
cleared. The present system of transfer
ring is satisfactory as far as the passengers
are concerned, but freight cannot be hand.
led. There was three.hours delay yester.
day.
W. F. Butcher, of Baker City, was in the
city Yesterday and said that in his opinion
the landslide was caused not SO much by
the recent heavy storms as by the action of
the river upon the base of the hills. The
bank had been entirely washed away by the
current. The hills are of soapstone forma-
tion, and having been softened by the heavy
rains, and having no support after the bank
had been washed away, a landslide ensued.
Mr.. Butcher thinks the slide will continue
until the earth dries up. The top of the
locomotive which was caught in the slide
can be seen from Bonneville.

Democratic Reioicings.

Saturday was decidedly Democratic day,
and wagons from the country drove in
bringing with them loads of enthusiastic
Democrats. At s o'clock the procession
formed on Union street, between Second
and Third. and went through the order of
march. The line was formed by mounted
men, bearing all sorts of devices significant
of victory. torch bearers and transparencles,
some of which were good Republican mot.
toes, such as "a Free Ballot and a Fair
Count" "force bill" in single SEN
tence-and Protection to American Work
ingmen and not to American Capital"-the
aim and object of the Mckinley bill.
On Third and Fourth the residences of
the principal Democrats were illuminated,
and the business houses on Second of those
who thus signified their joy at the recent
Democratic victory. Among the latter
worthy of especial mention were the Colum.
bia brewery, the stores of Mays Grove.
Pease & Mays, 81. Herbring, Blakeley &
Houghton, Chronicle office, H. c. Nielsen,
the Elite shaving saloon, P. Fagan's tailor
ing establishment, 7. McCoy's shaving par
lors, MaIer & Benton, SnIpes & Kinersly, 7.
P. MclnerDy, law Offices OF Judge Bennett
and ]. L. Story, Wiseman's saloon, Wood
Bros California market, Oro Emo saloon,
Stubling & Williams sample rooms, F.
Lemke's saloon and W. b. Butts There
were very many other displays, but in a
walk up Second street, these attracted our
especial attention.
After marching through the streets halt
was made in front of the court house, and
the crowd was addressed by Hons j. L.
Story, Judge Bennett and others, who paid
the usual tributes to Democracy and Demo.
cratic principles. and also high compli.
ment to Hon. James G. Blaine.
The mud was quite an obstacle to over
come, but this did not deter some men ad.
vanced in years from taking part. There
were gum boots In the procession, and the
wearers say they were quite comfortable.
A large whistle, making an unearthly
noise, was attached to the steam wood saw
and hauled through the streets. This was
blown at intervals, and tended to stimulate
the enthusiasm.
Our fellow citizens, the Democrats had
right to be joyful; but, individually, we
felt sorry that President Harrison was de-
feated, and we were not inclined to give any
expression of joy over the discontinue of
-
occasion of a change Ct policy FROM that
which has been so successfully followed for
over thirty years.

Attempt ar Suicide.

About II o'clock Wednesday, says the
Telegram, John Carlton, young man l9
years old, was brought into the police sta
ton at Portland in dazed condition. He
was found sitting in front of barber shop
at $50 North Fifth street, in semi.uncon-
scious state, with an empty half-ounce bot.
tie, which had contained chloroform lying
near. Large doses of salt and water were
forced down his throat, which caused him
to vomit. He became somewhat revived
and was then brought into the city Jail,
where he is still. DIR. Ison was called. and
after an examination, came to the conclu-
sion that the young man had not taken
chloroform, as he was unable to detect the
slightest odor of this drug on his breath.
Whateyer he had taken was evidently
forced up by the ibations of salt and water
administered. He soon recovered sufficient.
ly to talk, but refused to say what he had
taken, if anything, or to give any reason
for doing 1t. 1t seemed he quarreled with
his sister this morning. and it is thought
probably whatever he took was with sui
.cidal intent. No dangerous results are now
apprehended.

Vandalism at woodburn.

We learn from the Salem Statesman
that Wednesday night some miserable
wretch who has grudge against the
town of Woodburn started in with the
Independent office and smashed the bust
ness house fronts, glass and castings of the
following places: Independent Office,
Racket store. vacant store, 81. B. Cone,
barber shop, T. F. Moore. E. G. Wright,
Anslln & Son, Baron 6 Richard. Here
the marauder cut his hand on tine glass,
for blood was on the sidewalk and build
ing. Next came the stores of F. A. Ford,
G. L. Ogle, Bruce Bros, L. Provost &
Son, and W. E. Finger. From all of
these windows were broken and blood
was freely spsttered on the windows and
store fronts, showing that the fellows
hands must have been painfully cut. The
citizens of Woodburn have suspicious as
to the identity of the scrub who thus
maliclously defaced so many buildings,
and telegraphed his description in every
direction. He is thought to have taken
the overland train yesterday morning.
The damage IS about $75 and reward of
$100 is offered for the arrest of the Grim

Hew to set Kich.

Says an exchange: 1T is not SO hard,
after all, to grow rich. 1t is to trust no
body, to befriend none, to get everything
and save all you get; to stint yourself and
everybody belonging to you; to be the
friend of no man and to have no man for
your friend; to heap interest upon interest,
cent upon cent; to be mean, miserable and
despised for some 30 years; and riches will
come as sure as disease and disappointment.
And when pretty near enough wealth is col.
lected by disregard of human heart, at
the expense of every enjoyment save that of
wallowing in meanLess, death comes to fin
ish the work. The body Is buried In hole,
the heirs dance over it, and the spirit goes
where?"
