arter him; that's what make 1t all
'stonish me so. Why, sir, I've heard
him up till not two month before he
taken sick, of frekwent a-goin' on
about Harnah, what fine, industrious
wife she were to Cullen, and turnin'
out SO fur better than he ben a-ex-
pectin' from what some people had
told him about her."
"Did he say what this was, and from
whom he got itP"
"Well, I can't ric'lct egzact, but
somehow It were that he have heard
Harnah were kind O. frolicky, frislzy,
that didn't keer much fur-well, the
upshot were, she weren't too good, and
were danger of her fetchin' down the
family, after Wiley have lift it up, and
so on, which told him could Of told
him all the time that Harnah were
perfect jeweld Of girl myself, If her
parents was In mod'rate circums'es.
AS for where'd he got his idees he had
at the offstart, why, III have lowell,
the people in the settlement says and
my old oman among 'em, they all says
he never got 'em from nobody but Vile
Amerson hisself."
''No doubt about that, Mr.. Flint.
Mr. ANDERSON did not tell you what was
in his will?"
mo, bless your soul, no; nor never
asst him.
"Did heever say in your hearing that
he had destroyed it, or that he meant
to do SOP"
"No, not as member. He were not
9 man to talk about what he'd ben
a-doin' and were a-meanin' to do, and
/ never asst him, it not bein' any o. my
| business"
II was not In court when the will
was proved. You were, heard, and
testified to the old gentleman's entire
soundness of mind"
''oh, yes; were the only witness
there. Billy Lilly he was dead, you
know, and that rattlin' Owen Car
ruthers he were the t'other, and he
were laid up with one o. his rheumatic
spells, that come on him sometimes by
! his takin' no keer O. hisself Pearce
Amersons mind were as sound as it
ever were, certain and sure, aud 1t kept
SO long as l see him to talk with him,
If I'm any jedge."
"Yet he told Cullen, several times, q
month before he died, and in the pres
ence Of Cullen's wife, that he had no
will, and that Wiley had persuaded
him against it, saying as they were
only two, both of age, they could di-
vide the estate between themselves"
SIS that SOP" he asked, In much SOL
emnitY.

"Well, then, theirs obleeged to be
somethin' rotten some'res. Pearce
Amerson were truth-tellin' man, albe.
like me, he were not perfessor O. re-
hgion. II he said them words, he be-
leved EN-"
s'The difficulty, Mr.. Flint, is in estab-
hshing this. Cullen Is dead, and could
not testify if alive; neither can his
wife. The law, as l told you, will
stand to will that is fairly made, but
the law never lends countenance to
fraud Of any kind. That it is in this
case deep, black and damning there
cannot be doubt; and the people Of
that settlement where Mrs. Amerson
was born and brought up ought to take
some pains to help in finding It out"

GET 4 PAY ROLL.

Wealth does not keep up city, but
labor does. If ten men with a million
dollars a piece should locate in a COM
munity and simply lend their money, il
would not build city, unless the money
loaned was used in some business. The
employment of capital whereby labor is
also employed, is what builds cities and
makes them thrive. The prosperity OF
= place is measured by the size OF its
pay rolls. Everything that increases
the pay roll advances the growth and
prosperity of the city.
The cannery proposed to be built here
is an institution ofj this kind, and
strenuous efforts should be made to get
1t here. The distIllery is another of the
same kind. Besides the direct benefits
to be derived from the establishment ol
these industries, it is generally the case
that one business of the kind run sue
cessfuly leads to another.
The Dalles has the best location for a
manufacturing town of any place on the
river, and eventually will take her place
as such. A little effort on our part will
speed the day. Then let us be up and
doing, each with his shoulder to the
wheel, and in a year or two it will be
down-hill work-and go itself.

REPUDLATIoN DON'T 60.

We judge from an occasional editorial
on the subject in the Goldendale Sentinel
that Brother Gourlay is wrestling with
some unregenerate souls that believe
the reputation of few thousand dol
lars of county Indebtedness that was in
Cured, perhaps Illegally, will be a saw
ing to the county, and the proper thing
to do. 1t is quite probable that for
every dollars worth of county warrants
Issued the county, and therefore every
taxpayer in it, got value received. If
SO, there can be no excuse for entertain
ing the idea of repudiation. There is
not county in the state of Oregon, un-
less it is Multnomah, that is not in
the same fix as our neighbors across the
river are. Right here in old Wasco a
strict Interpretation of the constitution
would show that we owe $4,000 or
more for county script issued, technic-
ally speaking, illegally, yet we are going
right on paying it, and expect to con-
tinue in that line, because we have had
value received for it. Besides the courts
would make us pay it anyway, and so
will they our friends in Klickitat.

NO COMPROMTSE.

Whatever congress is to do, we be-
lieve will be done quickly, circumsUan-
ces have eliminated to force action.
The people and the press are demanding
the settlement of the tariff question,
and congress with all its disregard of the
peoples interests can no longer hesitate.
It may be compromise measure, but
we do not believe it. Our opinion is
that it win be the Wilson bill, or remain
the Mckinley bill. The lower house is
backed by its party and by the president.
It cannot recede without ''perfdy and
dishonor." So says the president, so says
the party. The lower house must stand
firm. On the other hand German, Brice
and that little coterie have expressed
their determination to stand by the
senate bill. We do not see how either
party can yield.
In the meanwhile this hope, faint
though it Is, has sent wool sharply up
wards, and as the chances for disagree
ment appear more favorable the market
continues to stifen. This being the
case the settling of the question will no
doubt be the salvation of the wool in
dustry.

Congressman Lockwood of New York
has introduced a bill to protect Ameri-
can labor. 1t provides that each adult
jmmigrant must have $75 and each
minor $50. Lockwood evidently wants
votes, for unless he is on that layout he
lis the most asinine man in congress. A
man having $75, or $3.50, is not going to
change the fact that he competes with
the laborer here. Seventy. five dollars
will not prevent foreigner going to
work when he gets here. Besides it
wouldn't stop any of them if they wanted
to come. The only difference would be
that when once possessed of $75 the
family would come one at time, the
money being sent back as soon as each
one arrived. Congress need not waste
its time fooling with the immigration
question. 1t must either be stopped en-
tirely, or let alone where it is. There
is no halfway ground.

What the final result may be between
Japan and China in settling their differ
ences, is on the face of the situation not
hard to guess. japan is warlike and ag-
gressive, but China is strong financially,
and in numbers, is the most powerful
nation on the earth. Japan has captured
the Corean king but as he was only a
dummy this cuts a small figure. Eng
land proposes to profit by the fight, but
It may be possible that Russia will be
drawn into it, and if so England will
be apt to take hand.
