If the state boundaries are to be
changed let us not increase the size OF
the state, which is already too large, but
rather diminish it.. Eastern Washing
ton added to Eastern Oregon would
make a stretch of country about 500
miles long by air line north and south.
with an average width of 800 miles east
and west. This is too great an expanse
of territory, in view of the rapid settle
ment, to be presided over by one seat Of
government. The Columbia river is q
natural boundary and the preponder-
ance of opinion, when it comes to vote
will prove this to be true. Eastern
Washington are not even as willing fol
the combination as Eastern Oregon
while the clash of interests of the Puget
sound with those of the Columbia river
and its ocean harbors will as effectually
prevent unifcation of territory on the
west. Hence the question of boundaries
will be left for each state to solve, and
will not be one for their joint considera-
ton.

1t is great pity that the Oregon Ma
tional Guards could not have shown the
old soldiers the trihing honor of escort
ing them to the cemetery, on their mis-
sion of decorating the graves of their de-
parted comrades. OF all times and
places this was pre-eminently where
they should have been yesterday. The
men who fought, bled and died that the
nation might be saved for these grace
less scamps, have right to expect more
than that. They are passing away; in

''The treasury today purchased 49,
800 ounces of silver" So says a Wash
ington dispatch of yesterday. Now, will
any one explain why, with millions of
ounces of silver on hand, the treasury
bought these 416, 800 ounces and paid
for them in notes that are practically
redeemable in gold.-Astorian
We viii try. There was an act passed
an 1880 called the Sherman act, which
provides that the government shall buy
100000 ounces of silver each month,
paying for them in treasury notes.
There are several newspapers who have
heard of this and at odd times have COM
mented on its wisdom very caustically.
We viii save some of these clippings up
and send them to you the next time we
come across any of them.

Literary Sensation.

"Uncle Toms Cabin has certainly
t'broke loose!'' The copyright on this
most famous of American novels, by
Mrs. Stowe, has recently expired, which
frees its publication from the monopoly
of the high-priced publishers, and
though in anticipation of this fact they
have within a few months greatly re-
duced its price, now that it is really
unclaimed" the consequences are
something surprising. John B. Alden,
Publisher, of New York, issues several
editions, selling them only. direct mot
through agents or book sellers); one in
good type, paper covers, for cents, sent
postpaid, or the same bound in cloth
for 10 cents with postage cents extra /;
also an excellent large-type edition, on
fine paper, handsomely bound in cloth.
for the price of % cents, postage 10
cents. Surely a copy of "Uncle Tom s
Cabin" will soon be found in every home
where it is not already. Mr.. Alden
sends a 32-page pamphlet describing
many of his publications free, or cata-
logue of 128 pages of choice books. Il

Chicago Horse Market.

]. S. Cooper, commission salesman of
horses, Union Stock Yards, Chicago,
says:
"The receipts for the opening of the
week fell considerably short of the pre-
vious couple of weeks, and as there were
many new buyers on the market, prices
stiffened at least 10 per cent. over last
weeks quotations. Drivers, as usual
of late, commanded most attention and
sold at prices generally conceded the
equal of the highest prevailing SO far
this spring. Good smooth chunks,
1100@1300 lbs., also sold well, and
streeters, SO much depressed for two
weeks back, sold freely, SO to $3.50
per head better"
Heavy draft horses in very limited de-
mand, and common, thin horses as
usual, hard sellers at low prices.

MEMoRLAL DAY.


= Memorial day was fittingly observed
in The Dalles. Besides the usual SER
vices, of the G. A. R. post, the people
generally observed the day, flags flying
at half mast in all quarters of the city,
the stores remaining closed during the
afternoon and the newspapers suspend
ing publication for the day. The citi-
zens needed not to be reminded that the
day was not jubilant holiday, even the
children appreciating the sacredness of
its meaning and their usual boisterous
demonstrations were hushed during the
march of the handful of veterans, who
with martial tread proceeded by drum
corps, took their solemn march to the
burial ground in reverent love and es-
TEEN for the gallant men who offered
their lives in defense of the Union and
the flag, and who are now bivouacked

This is the day which John A. Logan,

BIG JiM'S LAYOUT.
The Chinatown Squad Make an Inn

p0rtant Arrest.
Since the constant raids during the past
two weeks OF the Chinatown squad, under
Sergeant Gillep, upon the lottery and tan
houses in Chinatown, the Chinese have be-
come more cautious than ever and the lot
terry places are moved, almost daily. A
Chinese named Big Jim by the police has
long been recognized as the leader of the
lottery business but the police have never
been able to discover his hiding place. On
Sunday night the Chinatown squad raided
the house of i'll fame at S24 Jackson street
for white visitors, and imagine their sur
prise and Joy when they run right onto Big
Jim's lottery layout, with his three assist-
ants hard at work arranging for the mid

money received from the various agents,
and Chin All Sing. the keeper; Chin Len

The men. money and paraphernalia were
taken TO the Chinatown station and there
the men began denying they had anything
to do with Big Jim or the Chinese-Ameri-
can Lottery Company, which was the one
he was supposed TO be managing. Right in
the midst Of their protestations In walked
Big Jim to bail the men out and lock after
his money. He put up 1910 in gold coin for
the release of the men aud virtually admit
ted that it was his place that had been
raided by claiming the money.
What seemed to worry Big Jim most was
how be was going to get out his drawing in
time to satisfy his 600 or 700 ticket-holders.

all his books, reports, etc. He left the sta
