EIGHTY YEARS AGO.

Recently we came across a volume
written by Ross Cox, entitled "Adven-
lures on the Columbia River including
The Narrative of Residence of Six
Years on the Western Side of the Rocky
Mountains, Among Various Tribes of
Indians Hitherto Unknown" The
work was written by Mr.. Ross Cox and
published by J. & ]. Harper of New
York in 1882. Mr.. Cox was one of those
who came to Astoria on the second ship
sent out by Mr.. Astor, the Beaver, which
arrived at the mouth of the Columbia
May 9th, 1872. Mr.. Cox made the
journey to the Spokane and Ceur
d'Alene country the same year, and
during the six years of his stay in the
country made eight similar trips. His
description of the Columbia is remarka-
bly, correct with possibly one notable ex-
ception, and that is concerning the
rapids at the Cascades. Indeed his des-
cription is SO true that ~ can hardly be-
lieve he was mistaken in this respect;
and yet we do not remember of Lewis q
Clarke or any other of those who have
written of the Columbia making mention
of it. He says:
t'The upper part of this chain of rapids
is perpendicular fall of nearly sixteen
feet; after which it continues down
nearly one uninterrupted rapid for three
miles and half. The river here is COM
pressed by the bold shore on each side
to two hundred yards or less in breadth.
The channel is crowded with large rocks
over which the water rushes with in
credible velocity and with a dreadful
noise. Above the portage the river
widens to about half a mile, and is
studded for some distance with several
rocky and partially wooded islands. We
encamped about five miles from the
portage, on pretty little creek on the
north side.''
What strikes US as peculiar in his des-
cription is the statement that "the
upper part of this chain of rapids is a
perpendicular fall of nearly sixteen
feet" There is no such fall there now,
nor has there been within the memory
of the oldest inhabitant. If it ever was
there, either the rimrock that caused it
has worn away, or the channel below
has become flied with bowlders. That
the change has been made is possible,
though so marked an alteration does
not seem probable. The islands he
speaks of as dotting the river above the
portage are some of them gone, and the
others going. The one where Lewis
camped is now but dot of rock and
sand, with few willows growing on it,
certainly not large enough to suggest a
camping spot. The question is. was
there perpendicular fall as described
The pretty little creek he speaks of is, no
doubt, Rock creek, and the site of Mr..
Cox's camp is probably, also the site of
the present town of Stevenson, the
county seat of Skamania county.

The secretary of war has ordered a
board of engineers to meet at Portland
about the middle of the month to change
the plans of the locks SO as to accommo-
date boats at a higher stage of water
than was originally intended. The
people up this way would like to see the
canal completed under the present
plans, for boats can pass the locks when
SO completed, at any time they can get
up to them.

The Sinslaw hatchery was completed
this summer, and everything prepared
for the Matching of salmon. There was
only one reason why the hatchery was
not a success, and that was that there
were no chinooks. 1t seems the govern
ment officers in charge of the work re-
fuse to hatch any but chinooks, turning
a deaf ear and cold shoulder to the
silversides which are now running. Mr..
Mcclure, the state fish and game pro-
tector, through whose efforts the hatch

There is no medicine so often needed
in every home and so admirably adapted
to the purposes for which it is intended,
as Cham mberlain's Pain Balm. Hardly
week passes but some member of the
family has need of it. A toothache or
headache may be cured by it. A touch
of rheumatism or neuralgia quoted.
The severe pain of burn or scald
promptly relieved and the sore healed in
much less time than when medicine has
to be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before inflammation sets
in, which insures cure in about one
third of the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive inn
mediate treatment before the parts be-
come swollen. which can only be done
when Pain Balm is kept at hand. A
sore throat may be cured before it be-
comes serious. A troublesome corn may
be removed by applying it twice day
for week or two. A lame back may be
cured and several days of valuable time
saved or pain in the side or chest re-
lleved without paying doctor bill. Pro-
cure 80 cent bottle at once and you
will never regret it. For sale by Blakeley
& Houghton Druggists.

The Best Medicine.

j. o. WILSON, Contractor and
Builder, Sulphur Springs, Texas,
thus speaks of ayers Pills:
ayers Pills are the best medicine I
ever tried; and, in my Judgment, no
better general remedy could be devised.
I have used them in my family and
recommended them to my friends and
employees for more than twenty years.
To my certain knowledge, many cases
of the following complaints have been
completely and
Permanently Cured
by the use of Ayers Pills alone: Third
day chills, dumb ague, bilious fever,
sick headache, rheumatism, flux, dys-
pepsia, constipation, and hard colds. I
know that moderate use of Ayers
Pills, continued for few days or weeks,
as the nature of the complaint required,
would be found an absolute cure for the
disorders I have named above.''
al have been selling medicine for
eight years, and can safely say that
Ayers Pills give better satisfaction
than any other Pill I ever sold.''-J. j.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-At 1915
the clerk of the House brought to the
Senate the tariff bill, and at 1927 P.
NJ. the Vice-President signed the
bill.
Bills to place coal, iron ore and
barbed wire on the free list were read.
Then Harris had letter read, just re-
ceived from Secretary Carlisle, con-
corning the effect of the proposed bills
upon the revenues.
Berry called up the free sugar bill.
Harris, while favoTing free sugar,
thought this and other bills should be
referred to the Finance Committee.
Berry said the Senate had been
charged with being a friend to the
sugar trust. He wanted the bill to
pass exactly as it came from the
House. Harris said an early report
should be made by the committee. At
this point Cockren presented the con-
ference report on the general defici-
ency bill. The only dispute was on
$1,000, 600 for Southern war claims to
which the House would not agree.
He moved that the Senate insist on
this point. Sherman moved that the
Senate recede from it's amendment,
but his motion was lost and Cockrell's
carried.
Cockrell presented the conference
report on the sundry civil bill. 1t
was agreed to.
Vest resumed his speech on Harris
motion to refer free sugar and other
bills to the Finance Committee. He
said it ment death to the bills, as the
committee was politically tied with a
prospect of the disappearance of a
quorum within few days. He de-
clared that the position of the Senate
on the tariff had been indicated by
the letter from Secretary Carlisle who
proved conclusively that if the House
bill had been enacted it would have
caused deficiency of $50, 100000. He
showed that the power acquired by
the sugar trust was the result of it's
fostering by provisions of the Nc Kinley
bill.
Senator Jones, Of Arkansas, has
offered an amendment to the free
sugar bill imposing a fiat Of 80 per
cent duty on all sugars raw or re.

Carlisle Makes an Estimate,

WASHINGTON, August 15.-A letter
from Secretary Carlisle to Senator
Harris reviews the condition of the
Treasury and the estimated revenues
OF the government for the next fiscal
year. The figures show that under
the tariff bill just sent to the Presi.
dent the revenues would exceed the
expenditures for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1895, by s15,OOO,OOO. The
revenues from the sugar duty Carlisle
placed at S43,000,OOO, and from coal
iron ore and barbed wire, 81 ,OOO. 900.
Ii the House bills were passed there
would, Carlisle said, be a deficiency
next year of s29,OOO,O0O.
