That ''Hsw Hotel"

So, according to the Chronicle, "a real es.

that some Portland capitalists have been
looking over The Dalles with view to
erecting handsome four.story brick hotel
to be located on the Vogt property. adjoin-

Chronicle comments on the allegation by
saying, that "many have wondered why

up by ayowing that the "pioneer buildings

passing travellers a poor idea of our city" "
OF course, if we had "a handsome four
story brick hotel" on the corner of Second
and Federal streets every q. P. passenger
train would stop half an hour to allow the
passengersito have look at it; but in that
case the real estate firm, which gives out
the information, would deprive themselves
of the benefits to be derived from allowing

family, arrived here last night on the

reference to the statement that President
Cleveland wanted him to accept the Eng

replied: SIT is not true that President

New York, The president elect asked for
an expression of my wish or feelings as to
holding office under the administration,

WILL CHOLERA COMET

DR.. Hans Virchow, one of the best
of Germany's cholera experts, who
comes to this country as commissioner
of education in connection with the
German exhibit at the worlds fair,
says he thinks there is less danger of
cholera reaching America this season
than last, especially from Germany.
The authorities at Hamburg, he says,
are using every precaution to prevent
its breaking out again, including the
providing of new water supply for
the city, the cholera of last year hav-
ing come, DR.. Virchow feels sure,
from the water.
If to this there be added the news
regarding the wholly satisfactory
quarantine conference at Washington,
Just concluded, and the adoption OF
stringent regulations to be enforced in
every port of the United States where
a vessel can land, it will be seen that
the oceanic cholera route is guarded at
each end, and that comparative
measure of immunity is secured.
These precautions, however, should
not cause our cities and towns to be-
come lax or neglectful in the matter of
preventive hygienic rules and regula-
tions, says the San Francisco Chronicle.
The cholera bacillus may effect land
ing, in spite Of every precaution that
can be taken against it, and we must
use every endeavor to sterilize its favor
tie lurking and breeding places SO that
it will die of inanition. The authori-
ties agree that the one thing fatal to
the spread of cholera is cleanliness,
and that, on the other hand, it multi
plies and grows and rami6es among
dirt and filth as rapidly as the wild
gourd under summer sun.
Hamburg will not be able to stamp
out .he cholera entirely during the
coming season. 1t may, and prob
ably will, prevent its becoming epi-
demic, but the germs of the terrible
disease do not need to wait for an
epidemic before starting on their
journey across the Atlantic. If we
want to be protected surely against
cholera, we must not depend solely
upon Hamburg, nor upon national
quarantine, but must be ready to fight
the enemy on our own thresholds If it
succeed in evading the vigilance of the
sentries and passing the outposts.

All Are Patriotic.

WAsHINToN, March 27-John Myers, OF
Portland, arrived in Washington today He
is candidate for his old place as marshal OF
Oregon. He thinks that as he only served
two years, his having been an ex-office-holder
will make no difference. Editor Flagg, OF
Salem, who wants to be register ofthe Oregon
City land Office, is also in Washington.
The following applications were received
at the treasury department today: Anthony
Noltner, to be appraiser; A. H. Brown, Of
Baker City, to be collector of internal revenue
and Emanual Meyer, of Portland, TO be col
lector of customs at Portland, and Frank G.
Parker, of Walla Walla, to be collector al
Port Townsend.
Colonel W. P Carlin, now stationed in
Idaho, is believed to be slated for the va.
cancy caused by the failure to confirm Col
Otis as brigadier-general.
There are eleven Democratic patriots from
Oregon in Washington now, either seeking
office for themselves or for their friends, but
mostly for themselves.

Burned TO Death.

LAFAYETTE, Or, March 27-A sad &C
cident occurred last evening down on the
Gibbons Bros farm, about three miles
east Of this place, in which George Glib
bons lost his life. George and Dan Glib
bons were doing some butchering some
distance from the formers house, when
they discovered his house on fire. On ar
irving at the house George, believing bis
family to be within, made a rush into
the house and was soon overcome by the
intense heat and smoke. Dan made re :
peated efforts to get at his unfortunate
brother, bu: owing to the intense heat
was unable to do so. Only small pro-
portion of the remains could be found.
Dan Gibbons was severely burned about
bis face and hands. At the, time of the
fire the family of the unfortunate man
bad gone over to bis brothers house vis-
iting, and had George known of the
safety of his family the unfortunate
affair could not have occurred. Georges
family consists of wife and four chill
dren who bave the sympathy OF the large
community in which they live.

brick hotel" is pure creation of the Chron-
icle or its real estate informant. No Port.
land or other capitalists. outside the jurls-
diction of an insane asylum, would think OF
such thing. The Dalles can justly boast
of the best hotel accommodation of any
city of its size in Eastern Oregon. And
this is putting it mildly. The Umatilla
House, built at an original cost of $50, 600,
would alone accommodate more guests than
two hotels like that of the handsome one in
the ''queenly city, of Pendleton; not to
speak of the New Columbia, the Skibbe or
the European House. Whatever The Dalles
may lack, and 1t lacks many things, 1t is
not hotel accommodation. McGINTY.

LEwEs, Del, March 25-Wh,le bad
weather prevented the cruiser Neu York
from making a test at length of her pow
'ers, there is little doubt that she has
equsled, if not excelled the government
requirement of maximum speed OF 90
knots per hour. Though no protracted
and no Thorough test of endurance has as
yet been possible. owing to. fogs, she
steamed from Philadelphia to Delaware
breakwater, a distance of 102 miles on
an outward passage in less than five hours.
This time includes the slow run down to
Marcus Hook. On the run from Five
Fathom lIgbtship to Eastern lightship,
9A knots, the cruiser occupied 80 min.
utes in going and 81 minutes in return
ing, an average speed of 1S knots an hour.
The cruiser evidently has no: been run at

A Never-Ending War.

VALPARAISO, March 27-Generai Sar-
alva's defeat by government troops near
Allegro, Rio Grande do Sui, on Thursday
was greater blow to the Brazilian rev.
olutionists than was at first thought.
Advices from Rivera say that General
SoraIva was not only beaten badly, but
that 1000 of bis mel were made prison.
ers. He also lost large amount of
ammunition and arms. The news from
Bage Is to the effect that General Tavarez
is en,renched outside the Castilhistas
stronghold, and is shelling the town from
the hills with several large-sized guns.
No general attack has yet been made
upon the garrison. So far as the Castil-
hists and federals are concerned, they ap-
pear to be mainly engaged in avoiding
an engagement. Their marches through
the strict affected by the revolution
have been marked by many outrages.
Woman appear to have been the chief
sufferers from the atrocities. Many
homes have been destroyed and women
subjected to assaults of the most das.-
tardly character. Stories reach here al
most daily of attacks upon women and
young girls which are difficult to believe.
Meanwhile It is apparent that the war
must soon end through the interference
of the general government cf Brazil.
One thousand two hundred troops from
the general government reached Rivera
yesterday, and this makes the number of
the national army in the Rio G,snde do
Sui more than 5000 They are well
armed and equipped, and it will not be
possible for the revoluiIonists to hold out
against them very long. 1t is believed
here that Taveraz will be met at Bage by
force of national troops large enough to
overwhelm him and end the war there.
The correspondent in Montevideo says
that armed bands from the Rio Grande
have again crossed the border into Uru-
quay, where shots ere exchanged with
Uruguayan troops. There is another
ministerial crisis IN Argentina, and Vic
toria Romero IS expected to resign. The
trouble grows out of the consideration OF
the treaty with Brazil.

The aIinkIer Case

CHEHAL1s. Wash, March 27.-The
Minklsr case went to the jury tonight at
10 o'clock. The entire day and evening
was devoted to arguments of counsel. s.
G. Herrin and B. w. Coiner spoke for
the prosecution and Judge Epler and
Colonel Lewis for the defense. The case
has been handled with consummate skill
by both sides. The prosecution had the
advantage of victory in the Giles trial,
and was aided to some extent by the
strong prejudice against the defendant.
To overcome these, Colonel Lewis and
Judge Fpler strained every nerve, but
tonight expressed the belief they could
lot secure verdict The jury has been
out nearly three hours, and it is certain
there are 10 men for conviction.

Howell in proper manner in the last issue,
and which he fully deserved. We quote
from the article: "The Condor Globe states
that this same old sinner came near being
thrashed for kissing some lady in that city,
and we can add that while he was doing the
repenting act here, and calling on God to
witness his innocence of anv intentional
wrong doing, the elongated old masber had
letter from female oyer in Washington
calling him her darling" He did not tell
this to us as an attorney either; in fact, he
did not tell it at all, but it is true Just the
same. He Is nice old darling" not
overly clean, not inclined to be dudish, but
just plain, old-fashioned darling, rare

garden of dimpled old 'darhngs--and yet he
can lie like gas-meter."

MATTHER p. DEADY.

The death of Judge Deady in Port
land yesterday morning removes from
active life one of the most prominent
characters in the northwest, and a
man universally respected. He was
an enterprlsing citizen and an eminent
jurist, and the state at large suffers an
irreparable loss in his death. No per-
son is better adapted, by reason of an
intimate acquaintance for many years,
to pay proper tribute to the moral
and intellectual worth of the deceased
than the editor Of the Oregonia,s, and
the following excerpts are taken FROM
the leading editorial in that paper:
Great Is the fortune of opportunity to the
man of strong nature who enters com-
munity at the beginning Of its growth and
is able to take leading part in the forma-
tion and direction of its organized existence.
It is 10 these early stages that institutions
are fixed; 1t is then that the complex organ.
Ism known as society takes, in the nascent
state, its own individual form and character.
No state is mere accident. It is product
of positive forces, or their natural resultant,
derived from the character of its greater or
more forceful men and women.
It would hardly be possible to name an
other man who has had so prominent part
in the making of Oregon as Matthew P.
Deadly. To the observer of our historic
growth his hand has been apparent in the
gradual rise Of the whole framework Of this
structure that we call the state. No other
man has SO impressed himself upon its con-
stltution, its legislation, its jurisprudence;
no other single hand or mind has been so
constructive In that domain of institutional
law and custom in which a state roots Its
organic life.
Judge Deadly came to his powers in early
manhood, and though physical inirmities
have been growing upon him with age, he
retained them to the last. He has left a
name that Oregon will always remember; he
has written in her laws, stamped on her
jurisprudence and impressed on her general
character many things shat will never be
effaced His death marks another solemn
step in the passing of our pioneers.
