Mr.. Breckinridge, OF Arkansas. argued that
the policy OF the distribution OF the appropria-
tion bills had not contributed to economy.
Mr.. Hooker, OF Mississippi. gave his adherence
TO the doctrine OF q distribution OF the appro-
pristion bills. That distribution had been
made on account OF q rebellion against the I'M
mense power exercised by the Committee on
Appropriations. II had worked well, and he
could see no reason why tho District Committee
should not pa given jurisdiction over expendi-
lures for the support OF the district
Mr.. Hemphill closed the debate In favor OF MS

10 side-track any other Legislation that might Dc

= A Round Trip.

Messrs. Hugh Chrisman and F. G.
Connolly returned last evening from a
trip of about 200 miles, which took them
through Wamic, Tygh valley, into Sher-
man county via Sherars bridge, through
Grass Valley, to Moro, and back by way
of Fultonville and the Des Chutes.
They found everything prosperous,
and everybody happy and contented.
Grass has started fine all over the coun-
try, and stock never could look better.
The people everywhere are busy. The
first day out of The Dalles they met 102
teams loaded with wheat for this city,
five loaded with timothy hay, and one
Indian with 4-horse team loaded with
hides and pelts. Besides doing them a
great deal of good, the trip has consider
ably opened their eyes to full and real
izing sense of the situation the city and
the country bear relatively to each
other

The renee Of the future.

There are a number of strong points in
favor of the Tuna Hedge as the fence of
the future, the advantage of this kind of
a fence may be briefly Enumerated as
follows: It becomes a perfect barrier
against all kinds of domestic animals
after three years growth; does not sap
or impoverish the ground, beinga strict
ly atmospheric plant and will not grow
from the seed or by cutting the roots
hence will not spread, it grows only to
certain uniform height and therefore
does not require trimming. it has been
thoroughly and successfully tested in
northern climates and does not kill out
in the winter time, it serves the double
purpose of usefulness and ornamen-
tation, as it is an evergreen and blooms
during three months of the year, an in
vitation is extended to thoroughly test
its merits, and every one will be con-
vinced that it possesses all the advant-
ages claimed for it. Messrs. johnson &
Payne are now taking orders for the
Tuna Hedge and have met with uniform
success. Any one wishing a living grow
ing fence something that will not spread
and will be fence for all time to come
should give their orders now and get
| their fence started this fall.

Friends and customers of The Dalles
Mercantile Co. and A. M. Williams & Co.
are cordially invited to call at their
grocery stores Saturday, October Goth,
to test the merits of the St. Charles
Evaporated Unsweetened cream.
Coffee will be served in which this
brand of delicious cream will be used.
This sterilized cream is not only su-
perior to any other on the market, but
is better than dairy milk or cream, which
has not been relieved of the animal and
atmospheric impurities. Come one and
all.
n. B. st. Charles Unsweetened cream
is peerless food for infants, and the
sick, as well as all culinary uses.

THE INLAND EMPIRE.
Able at Last to Command Attention B 9th
~ In and Out of Congress.

Speaking of the crops in Sherman
county, Messrs. Chrisman and Connolly
say the acreage for 1898 harvest will be
nearly double that of the harvest just
past. The farmers are driving the sum-
mer fallow work in gangs everywhere,
and the sight is one to delight the eyes
of the observer.
In this connection it might be prudent
Ito inquire: How is this immense acre
age to be taken to the coast without an
lopen river? If it takes the railway
company eight months to carry the crop
Iof 1892 to tide water, it is perfectly safe
ito estimate that it would take them six
teen months to transport the harvest of
1898. Thus, at single glance may be
seen the urgent necessity of having the
cascade canal finished and portage
built at the dalles before neat fall!
The Regulator cannot do everything.
1t has regulated freights this year,
however, SO that net saving of $17, $50
has accrued from the expenditure by
the state, of $55, 900 at the cascades for
the portage road.
An article which we reproduce today
from the Hillsboro Independent, on
this topic, is worthy of preservation.
The U. P. R. Co. are now running
eight special trains daily in the effort to
get this wheat out. The Regulator goes
loaded every day. With the locks open
a few barges could and would do more
work daily than all the available cars
on the Pacific coast are doing, and
freights would be still further reduced.
Besides that, as the Independent sug-
gests, the cascades portage road could
then be abandoned and transferred to
the dalles and the advantages would
then be conferred upon the whole In
land Empire; as the boat or barge
loaded at the foot of the dalles portage
would be able to go through to Astoria
without the expense of two extra hand
lings at the cascades.
Our attention has been called to an
other matter which has satisfying
effect. A few days since, referring to
the excess of the average production of
grain in Oregon, above the total aver
ages by states of the union as given in
the department statistics, we stated that
| this showing would have a tendency to
restore confidence in the Inland Empire
and strengthen sentiment favorable to
our farmers in financial circles This
has since been confirmed, and while it
is impossible to negotiate loans in the
Oregon division of the Inland Empire
on as favorable terms as is done across
the river in Washington, because of the
Objectionable mortgage tax law; we are
pleased to know that reports are more
favorable to loans in Wasco, Sherman,
ETC., than in the most favored districts
of the Willamette valley.
All such things tend to imbue us with
the idea that the population and inter-
est in the Inland Empire has now
reached point in numbers and infiu-
ence sufficient to enable US to throw of
the yoke of the oppressor and boldly as
sert our standing as worthy of consider
alton IN and out of congress and legisla-
tive assemblies, at all times in the near
future.

The Heppner Gazette pays a high
compliment to our worthy young friend
y. j. Sinnott, by publishing his patriotic
and eloquent address at the Columbus
fday celebration under the auspices
of the G. A. R., on the 21st. The Gazette
says: ''Mr. Sinnott's speech was mas
terly effort and warmly applauded. He
has ability in this line rarely equalled
apd seldom excelled by so young a man,
being only in his 22d year" The com
mtttee of arrangements also rendered
him vote of thanks for the address. Z
Word has just reached here of the
death of George Ramsey, in the Mis-
soula hospital of typhoid fever. Mr..
Ramsey was very popular freight con-
ductor on this division at one time. He
was only 81 years of age, and had earned
ihis promotion, commencing as brake
man in the spring of 1889. His father
at Kent, Ohio, has been notified of the
sad event. Mr.. Ramsey's death was
very sudden, as he left Sprague only a
week ago, complaining of being unwell,
and no one thought it would be serious.
The remains will be taken east, accom-
panied by Conductor ]. D. Minehan.
On Wednesday Mr.. Sanford of Filloon
Bros, was in Centerville and wanted to
come to The Dalles. A livery team was
secured and Mr.. A. NJ. Bunnell engaged
to drive over. When descending the
hill this side of the valley the team ran
away, but was kept in the road and for
two miles down grade put in 2:40 gait,
when they met with an obstruction and
Messrs. Sanford and Bunnell were
pitched head first into barbed wire
hedge. The buggy was badly smashed
up and both occupants somewhat
bruised. Mr.. Sanford's clothing was
badly torn up in his gyrations in the
barbed wire fence.
OF Messrs. Hughes and Bangs, con-
tractors on the Sault Ste Marie canal
enlargement, now here to bid on the
cascade canal and locks, the Buffalo
| Courier of the oath says: ''The time
for the completion of the new SO0-foot
lock on the enlarged Sault Ste Marie
canal was placed at November 1, 1898
but it is evident, from the progress
now being made, that it will be in readi
ness for use several weeks ahead of time
The new lock will cost 81 800 600. ,
THE CHRONICLE would be pleased tc
have Messrs. Hughes & Bangs come out
successful in their bid for the cascades
canal, as we feel assured that they would
complete the entire work within eight
months.
