WHAT GOOD ROADS MEAN.

An exchange briefly expresses the
advantages of good roads as follows:
They would make it possible for
the farmers to promptly take adyan-
tage of the highest market, no matter
at what season Of the year.
They would lessen the expense in
keeping horses in working order and
vastly fewer horses would he required
in the country to perform the farmers
work.
They would save him days and
weeks of time which he wastes every
year wallowing through the disgust
ing mire of the dirt roads.
hey would reduce to Il minimum
the wear and tear on wagons and car
riages
They would require less expense to
keep them in repair thla do the dirt
roads.
They would air'rl r.ady C mmnni-
cation wi h th. ol,,jIa world mt all
times of the year,
They would spare farmers many
vexatious and nervous strains.
They would practically shorten the
distance to the local market.
They would increase the demand
for country and suburban property.
They would be free from dirt in
summer and mud and ruts in fall,
winter and spring
They would make it easier for a
team to pull several tons over a
smooth surface than to drag a wagon
through the mud.
They would bring every farming
community int closer social relations.
They would make an evenings
drive a pleasure instead Of a vexation,
as it is now.
They would be- in short, the best
possible investment for the tax payer.

Cotton Seed Hulls.

We are now putting up Cotton
Seed Hulls in bales, weighing 100
pounds each, thus enabling dealers and
consumers to handle and store them
more conveniently than hay. The
bales are % inches long, and 18X14
wide, and only one half the size of the
smallest bale of hay. Cotton Seed
Hulls are now recognized as being
superior to hay, both for fattening
and milk producing, and when mixed
with a small proportion of our cotton
seed meal, it surpasses any cattle food
in the market. Being much cheaper
than hay or bran, should recommend
it to every one who feeds cattle. For

Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-

it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation

SATURDAY. OCTOBER % 1892

just before presidential and con-
gressional elections it is customary for
Democratic papers in this portion of
the state to lay the blame for the un-
finished locks and canal at the Cas-
cades to the Republican party, and
this for the purpose of securing votes
for their candidates. By the article
published elsewhere in this paper it
will be seen that the Sunday Welcome
is following the same tactics, and, we
presume, with the same object in view.
The fact of the matter is, that this I'M
provement has received the largess ap-
preparations when the lower house was
in control of the Republican party,
and Oregon had Republican repr ,sen-
tatives in that branch of congress. Our
present delegation in Washington City
has done earnest and effective work re
garding the opening of the Columbia
river, and it was through the persist
ent efforts of Senators Dolph and
Mitchell and Congressman Hermann
that the contract system was adopted
and the liberal appropriation of $435,-
900 incorporated in the River and
Harbor bill. The defeat of the Ref
publican county ticket in Wasco last
June can in no wise be laid to the
dissatisfaction of the people regarding
the delay in finishing the locks; but
can be directly traced to factional diff
ferences, and which are not confined
to politics, but can be discerned even
IN business and social circles. Our
brothers of the press would write more
intelligently regarding local politics if
they would take little time and trou-
BILE to understand the status of the
community abou which they attempt
to instruct their readers.

Meeting at Hood RiY er.

Hood River Glacier: The water meeting
last Saturday was well attended, and the
reports of the committee showed that there
were pledged $1,000, with at least $40. 900
more ready to be subscribed as soon as the
books are opened and the route determined
upon. The meeting was brief one, the
principal business being the appointment of
a committee consisting of G. L. Morse,
John Divers and Mr. Davidson. to examine
the proposed routes on each side of the river
and report to-day. Unfortunately, Divers
was sick and Davidson unable to 60, SO
Morse had difficult job to find some one
to go with him, finally inducing Mr.. Robert
Rand to do SO. They went to Sandy Flat
Thursday morning and will examine the
route down the west side, that being as
much as they can get over in the short time
at their command. Should their report
prove favorable, and we believe it will, a
surveyor will be put on at once and articles
of incorporation perfected.

For the next year Chicago will be
the center of attraction for the civil
lied world, and it will be school for
all nationalities, in which the progress
in the arts and sciences will be freely
and fully taught. Visitors will con-
gregate there from all portions of the
globe, and countries will vie with each
other in making the more creditable
display. The opening day of the ex-
position was Friday, Oct. 2lst; but
every day during the coming year will
be equally attractive. Not only as an
educator will the great exhibition act
an important part, but in unifying
different races and making each ac-
quainted with the other the oppor-
tunity is one that will not present it
self again in centuries.

The Old Cancer.
Sunday Welcome.

1t so happened that one of the Welcome
staff was up to The Dalles on business. Of
course the town has rot recovered from its
terrible scotcbing and the burned district Is
still a public nuisance. But the fire, dull
times, and everything else are forgotten in
the one thin, needfnl there, the great oh.
ject of all hearts, tie Cascades canal.
Wasco county Is unique IN the state. 1t is
cynosure, marvel, an anomoly and Curl
osity. The mJst rab,d Democrat there ad-
mits that the county is Republican by
good majority and yet the Democrats al
ways eie;t their nominees. The circuit

automatic, breech loading, center fire Dem
ocrats. Who ever herd of such thing
before CIR since? A sure thing Republican
county with Democratic officers. And the
reason? The canal. No one can imagine
the hidden, helpless, hot, heating, hungry,
home made, homeopathic, huDyadl feeling
of the people on this subject. It is rocky
down to the bedrock. The whole town de-
pends on it. Every foot of land hangs on
it. Every pound of coffee and sugar is af-
fected by it. 1t enters into every mans
home and touches the pocket more, all
along the line. One million and half of
money spent there and nothing done. The
uuanswerable logic of that fact hits the Re
publican party hard, kills it there, hurts
everywhere. Now the contract is let, some
people are hopeful, others smile knowingly.
The Dalles will be fine city when that
work is done-not until then. 1t makes the
blood run cold to listen to the suggestions
about that business. The railroads are
dead against 1t tor their freights must come
down when these rocks are cut through, the

The Broad Columbia.

The Canyon City Neacs man Las been Civ.
ing his paper some unique sketches, and
this is the way he writes about the river
and the necessity of it being opened for
navigation to the sea:
"Every one who has seen our own broad
Columbia river feels just pride in the
magnificent highway of commerce, and al
most reverence for the broad, blue ex-
panse of watery waste on which the ships
of all nations rest secure from the storms
which make old Oceans pillows foam. Even
now over thirty vessels, from every civilized
nation are on their way here or are already
bia, from Astoria to Portland, waiting TO
carry away the loads of wheat, -four and
other produce from the portions of country
tributary to that noble stream. Then the
Importance of the government works on the
locks at the Cascades looms up. Steamers
must assist In moving the millions of tons
o. freight to the deep water harbors, for the
railroads even now are overtaxed, and the
quantity is increasing annually. The Dalles,
which is only one of the many shipping
stations in the Columbia river region,
shipped this season over 6,0O0.0 600 pounds
of wool. And now one sees at every sta
tion ON the Union Pacific in the wheat
growing sections of Oregon, Washington
and Idaho, immense piles of sacked grain
awaiting shipments. When the obstruc-
tions to navigation are removed the hoarse
toot of the steamboats, whistle will resound
all along the Columbia from British Amer
ica to tbe sea, and as the resources of the
country are developed railroads will parallel
each other. Oregon, Washington and all
the northwest, which came SO near being
British territory, will prove richer merit.

a.,e: Come to Wasco county for the best

adds: "If he had said come to. Oregon we
could heartily acquiesce but the Willamette
valley takes no back seat IN the fruit bus,-
ness. The grapes were of the Muscat and
Rose of Peru varieties" But, notwith-
standing all the advantages of the William
