English Automatic Brake.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-English railroad
engineers believe they have attained an
ideal solution of the automatic brake ques-
ton. which has so long harassed American
railway managers who are, by law, obliged
to equip all trains with such brakes. There
is now being submitted to exhaustive prac-
teal tests, in England, an automatic c%ontinu-

which the greatest claims are put forth.

The Bond-Aidcd Railways.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-Chairman Reilly,
of the House committee on Pacific railroads,
visited Secretary Carlisle to-day, in accord
ance with the request OF the committee, and
asked the Secretary's opinion as to whether
a more specific appropriation would be nee
essary in case the government should deem
it advisable, under the authority of the act
of March 3, 1887, to pay off the first mort
gage bonds of the several bond-aided roads
The Secretary thought that the authority
contained in the act was sufficient, out al
luded to the fact that any action on this
line was made contingent on the direction
of the President. and, while he could not
speak with authority, he did not think
President Cleveland would be inclined to
direct that such action be taken.

GRAIN RATES SHADED
CHAIRMAN BLANCHARD's ORDER
NOT OBEYED BY ALL ROADS.
The Situation mt Chicago Described
as ~.Beurish"-Wnr Will Begin
When the blizzard Ceases.

CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-The recent reduction
of the grain rate between Chicago and the
Atlantic seaboard from rs cents to 20 cents
has not had the expected result of prevent
ing all Generalization nor are the lines
needing with any great care the positive in
junction of Chairman Blanchard, of the
Central Traffic Association, that Hereafter
the grain rates must be rigidly maintained"
The recent cuts in the rates on flour from
Minneapolis and st. Paul to Chicago has
had the effect of making the lines east OF
Chicago shade their tariff sheets in order
to hold on to their share of the business.
1t was intimated very strongly by the ST.
Paul-Chicago lines that they had no inten-
ton OF cutting rates and of the paying TO
the Eastern roads the same percentages
as before. The Eastern lines were quick
to take the hint, and as a result there has
been a bearish feeling in East-bound grain
rates from Chicago that is likely within a
few days to bear fruit in the shape of
open cuts. The severe weather of the last
ten days has operated more to hold in
check the desire to get under 20 cents than
any other reason. The total amount or
grain received by the Eastern roads Is
about the same as last week, but they have
not carried it away as rapidly as before.
1t was being moved with more CELEBRITY
to-day, however. AS soon as the weather
moderates and the roads are as open for
business as before the blizzard tied them
into hard knots, the twenty-cent rate on
grain will grow shaky at the knees and
wabbly along the spine. Chairman Blanch-
ards order is not weighing very heavily
at present, and it will grow lighter as
spring advances.
Til affairs of the Western Trunk-line COM
mittee continue to brighten, and it is now
believed that the worst Of its troubles are
over. A conference between the transcon-
tinentaI lines at which both the Rio Grande
Western and the Union Pacific will be repre-
sented will be held during the coming week
at the office of Chairman Caldwell, and it is
the general opinion that it will end in such
a manner as to permit both roads to become
members of the committee. With the Union
Pacific on the inside. 80 per cent. OF the
difficulty of forming the will be
ended. The Missouri Pacific will come in
on the heels of the Union Pacific and the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas viii, 1t IS cx-
pected, follow suit at once. With these
three lines and the Rio Grande Western
as members, the committee will be able at
once to begin operations. This, however, is
the rosy side of the matter. If the Union
Pacific flies off at a tangent again, as 1t
has done so many times already. the pa
thence of some of the other lines will hard
ly hold good against the temptation to pun
ish it for the trouble it has caused.

DALLES SHOULD MAl
CLOTHING.
MAKE
THE

The DaIles is the largest wool market
in the state, and there is every reason to
expect that it will continue to be; yet
there is not an Industry here that makes
use either of wool or pelts. PendletOn
has a securing mill that is doing well
financially, and is saving much to that
part of the state. Salem and Oregon
City have woolen mills. which use con-
siderable quantity of Oregon wool, and
pay better price for it than foreign
buyers can afford to. Their goods are
as desirable az any in the market. If
their clothes were made up as carefully
and neatly, there would be very large
home demand for them; but because of
poor tailoring their goods are not as
saleable as eastern-made clothing.
What The DAlies needs, and should
have, is wooden mill of large capacity,
and with it a tailoring establishment
capable OF turning out as well made and
well finished clothing as any in the
country. The local demand for these
goods would be very considerable, and
Eastern Oregon, Washington and Idaho
made. We want an establishment with
sufficient capital to be independent of
subsidies. We will furnish the market,
and local capital would be furnished to
the right kind of men, but because peo-
pie here are confident that the enter
price would be profitable, they will not
contribute to the support of it. Land
and materials for buildings will be given
by people of The DaIles, and every en-
couragement in the way of patronage is
offered. The effect such an industry
would have on the wool market is clear
ly demonstrated by the effect of the
Curtiss mill on the wheat market.
We believe, if the facts were properly
laid before men seeking an investment,
we could have wooden mill and cloth
ing factory. 1t is just what we need to
make this the best business city in the
Northwest.

OUR coINAeE ScHENE.

As ne have heretofore declared, THE
CHRONICLE is nothing if not devoted to
the highest interests of the state, and it
was our patriotism that inspired US to
declare the great scheme of free coinage
of horsehide as the only true escape from
the financial distress of the state, with
out even copyrighting it. We are
pleased to note that the press of the
state appreciate the genius which origin
ated the plan, and the love of country in
our breast which caused US to publish
the secret; but we confess our enthusi-
asm is chilled, our pride is checked, and
our feelings deeply hurt by the Pendle-
ton Tribune, which refers to the great
plan as having originated with Grant
county paper.
We can stand it to have the Eugene
Register and the Baker City Democrat
use our editorials without intimating
where it got them, indeed we are fat
tered thereby; but we feel that we de-
serve better treatment in respect to the
new coinage plan.

AlmoGt a sensation.

Yesterday Sheriff Driver and City
Marshal Blakeney received word that
Harry Stark, who lives out in the
country, was missing and that he was
believed to have been foully kealt with.
The authorities searched the city high
and low and could find no trace of the
man. In the afternoon Trixy Smith, a
negro woman. was arrested and placed
in the county jail under suspicion OF
having something to do with Stark's
disappearance. She denied knowing
anything about it, but the officers
thought it best to arrest her. Late last
night word was received from Portland
that the missing man was there and for
the officers to drop the matter. Stark
had gone down Saturday and was enjoy
ing the ins and outs of the gay metrop-
oils. 1t looked for awhile as though
The. Dalles was to have slight sensation
as previous to going away Stark had dis.
played good deal of money, which
strengthened the report of his being q
prey to someone's avarice.

Dsd,cation At the Locks.

The dedication of the new Catholic
church at Cascade Locks yesterday was
attended by a large concourse of people
both from the Locks and this place.
The church is very pretty building,
56x20 feet, with a steeple. No bell has
yet been provided, but the Messrs. Day
have intimated that they will make q
present of one to the church. At z 80
Rev. A. Bronsgeest held mass and gave
communion to seven children. Millard's
mass in F was nicely sung by The Dalles
choir and a solo, .'Give Ne the Heart, :"
by Miss Mary McTnerny, the younger
choir joining in the chorus. The
Regulator arrived about 1890 and the
dedicatory services, performed by Arch
bishop Gross, were held Immediately.
The church was dedicated to St. Columb-
kille, an Irish saint. Mr.. Bronsgeest
has been the moving power in providing
the people of the Locks with the build
and has devoted great amount of time
to the project.
At the close of the service Archbishop
Gross and Rev. Bronsgeest were pleas
antly entertained at the home of Mr.. ].
G. Day.

A sad scene.

Those who were at the dock when the
Regulator left this morning saw sight
that would melt heart of stone. Mrs.
Kimball, of John Day, had been very i'll
for some time and was brought into
.town to be taken to a Portland hospital.
While on the dock she grew much worse
and it was clearly seen that the trip was
useless and that death was hoyerlng
near. A temporary place was fixed in
the freight house and kind hands were
ready to do what little could be done to
make the last of earth az less miserable
as possible. Shortly after the boat left
the lady was taken to the Umat1lla
House. 1t was only a matter of few
hours till her feeting breath had gone
and the grief stricken husband, who
brought her such great distance in the
vain hope of betterment, was left alone.
She died shortly after o'clock.

Dalles City owns its own waterworks,
and is paying for them without strain.
We paid what seemed at the time big
price for them, namely $125, 200; but
the first payment of $4,000 has been
met, and no greater burden has been
thereby imposed upon the citizens than
when we were paying a nonresident
capitalist for the water We used. The
water commission is composed of busi-
ness men who are anxious to have the
business properly managed. As the
city grows-and it certainly is growing
the income will increase, and water
rates can be reduced; and when the
water bonds are paid, the water works
will pay off our other bonded indebted
ness,

The wool market report indicates a
weakening instead of strengthening.
One report says: "Prices cannot ad-
vance, as on basis of one or two cents
higher for secured wools, large guam
tity of foreign woods could be imported,
which would prevent" We under
stood from the democratic press and
stump speakers that all we needed to
make a demand for our woods was the
free importation of foreign woods. Is it
possible that we were deceived: A wit
ness shown to be false in one particular
should be discredited in all. On this
theory the whole democratic party will
never again be trusted.

a wedding Yesterday.

Yesterday at noon Rev. j. n. Wood of
the Methodist Episcopal church united
IN marriage, Mr.. j. S. Winzler and Miss
Lura Welch, both of The Dalles. The
ceremony was performed in the presence
of few friends of both parties, who
gave the bride and bridegroom their
heartiest congratulations. Mr.. Winzler
has lived in The Dalles for several years
and has made many friends by the
praiseworthy way in which he has con-
Quoted himself. Miss Welch is one Of
FFasco connty's best young ladies and
has been a teacher in our public schools
for the past year. She is graduate Of
the Wasco Independent academy and al

The Care of Teeth.

With few people nature has SO ar
ranged the teeth that the tongue and
lips together with the saliva may keep
them washed clean. while with a
majority artificial means must be en-
ployed and with many it is almost inn
possible even with the use of brush ;.
soap, water and powders to save them
from decay. Nor is it altogether the
natural arrangement of the teeth in the.
mouth that affords easy cleansing, that
gives strength and health, but more the
actual use of them. However favorable
they may be located, yet for the want of
use they may within five years become
soft, diseased and decayed, and in ten
years be the prime cause for neuralgia Of
tha face, liberation at the roots, swelling
of the gums and discharging of pus into
the mouth, making the breath very of
fensive, impairing the digestive organs
and causing dyspepsia.
Teeth to be kept clean, strong and use
full must, like the arm, have exercise.
A COW fed for two years on bran alone
will lose the use of her teeth to such an
extent that if given hay or corn only
will not be able to eat enough to keep
her alive, but would die with plenty
around her. The teeth will have risen
in their sockets because of little labor
and be quite as useless as an arm held In
a swing for two years. Some dentists,
! ignorant as to the causes for tooth decay,
has advised their patients to use to-
bacco, believing that the tooth-saving
property lay in the nicotine thereof, but
it is demonstrated that there is more
virtue in the use of the teeth as brought
to play in chewing than in any property
belonging to the tobacco. Parents will
often wonder why their little children's
teeth are in such bad condition and
will excuse the thought by saying
"there is not lime enough in the water''
and pay no further attention to the
teeth and the child is left to suffer day
after day with the toothache.
/ wish to say to the parents thai
"there is not lime enough in the water, :
is not cause for decay and black stair
teeth any more than the nicotine of to
bacco is cure. If you will exercise tn,
teeth and keep them clean, you will .finS
in this the cure and will overcome tn,
cause for the decay in your children
J mouth. It isn't necessary that so many
children ct the age of four and 6v,
, should have their teeth covered with /.
! black stain and decayed. It can b,
, avoided with little attention on the par
ents part. Ask your dentist what Il
give child to assist in cutting its frs
teeths that they may come through in
healthy condition and remain 90.
Very Truly,
! s. II. FRAzIER, Dentist.
