holder in the paper, and the business
and was introduced to the
city editor.
While they were chatting the Oldest
reporter in the room, a chronic kicker,
growled:
-"Well, here comes another ~favorite
to be foisted upon the city man. He'll
be a pet, of course; his old man is a
stockholder and has got money to
burn"
Further controversy and retort was
interrupted by the approach of the city
editor, who left his desk to introduce
Clarence Holt to the members Of the
staff, who greeted him according to
their various dispositions.
Young Holt returned to the editors
desk, and, his father and the business
manager having gone, he said to the
latest addition to the staff of the SEN
sation:

"In the exigency of daily publication

presumed to lavish on their efforts"
Clarence Holt nodded his head and
the editor further said:
But you nave one thing to encour-

serve an apprenticeship and stand the
eternal grind. 1t is only a mere mat

The Nicaragua Canal.

It is the duty of Southern SEN
ators and congressman, of South
ern newspapers and of the repre-
sentative commercial bodies in
every Southern city, not only to
aid by every means they can
command the Nicaragua Canal
enterprise, but to cooperate
so as to- make their efforts
as effective as possible.
The construction of this
canal would be of vast benefit to
the whole civilized world, but
the Southern States Of our Union
would be the chief beneticiaries.
It would cause a change in some
of the greatest channels Of com
merce which would bring to
Southern ports an enormous in
crease of business, stimulate
every Southern industry and
widen the field to be supplied by
the products of Southern soil.
Considering the comparative ease
with which the Nicaragua Canal
can be constructed, and the very
small relative cost, it is wonder
full that it has not been built long
ago.
That it must be built is a cor
allory to the proposition that the
world will continue to progress.
We confess our surprise that sc
few of the men who represen-
the South in congress, have
taken an interest in this matter
They have it in their power here
to do great service to their coun
try. Before them are an oppor
tunity and a duty which the,
should not neglect.

Clarence Holt had been told that the
article was a success, and thereafter
he accepted many important assign
ments, all of which he filed with cred
it to himself and the paper.
The city editor kept him busy with
special stories, and when his father
died and he inherited a fortune he was
financially and practically able to en-
bark in newspaper publication on his
own account.
Up to this time he had kept up his
acquaintance with Ethel Allen and
saw her advance step by step until
she became the prima donna Of the
Olympic. Then lie asked her to retire
from the stage and become an editors
wife.
Even the manager, who was at first
almost inconsolable at the thought OF
parting with a treasure, became recon.
ciled to the wisdom of her choice and
course.
After all, it is the best for both OF
them. Ethel Allen is a jewel with
beauty and virtue, and Clarence Holt
is as good as they make them; be-
sides, he's got money to burn."-Jour

aoodlums in The Dalles.

Two or three hoodlums abused the
hospitality of the Chinese today. They
entered one of the wash houses, and
after begging some cigars, one of them
deliberately helped himself to some
money which was lying on table. A
remonstrance being raised, he struck
one of the Cinnamon in the face, but
dropped the money and all went out.
If boy has no better sense of decency
than this at the age of 16 or 1S years he
never will have. No arrests have yet
been made, but if the Chinese were not
the very mild people they are they would
either have the young man punished
through process of law, or take it out OF
his hide.
The Chinese are not the only sufferers
from hoodlumism in The Dalles. The
churches have been bothered for years
by these unruly disturbers OF peace and
decorum, and it has resulted in the
trustees of the Methodist church re-

ure. A little muscular religion is some

Looking at the New Road.

The mayor and two members Of the
city council viewed the proposed new
road to the East End, which was the
subject of an extensively signed petition
Saturday night. They found that the
route is impracticable for the reason of a
tremendous grade encountered after
reaching Fourth and jefferson streets,
where the road turns to climb the hill,
accomplishing the remainder of the
climb at about an angle of thirty-five
degrees, and in the space of one square.
Though it would not be necessary to cut
down tree and drag it from the rear OF
the wagon, as was done in the early
days, it would be polite to rough-lock II
the wagon was very heavily loaded
while making the descent. A better
way was shown them by Mr.. B. F.
Laughlin, which is to. keep below the
bluff, and climb gradually until de-
preston is met leading to G street, past
Mr.. Bert Thurston's house, and on to
the high land, where several roads
branch out in all directions. This route
would be much less expensive, and a
great number of subscriptions of work
be secured.
