4 THRIVING CITY.

If The Dalles is not growing, then all
signs fail. In every portion OF town
residences are going up, many of which
will be among the most attractive in the
city; no desirable tenement houses are
TO be found unoccupied; our public
schools closed with the largest number
of scholars enrolled in the history OF the
city; the o. R. & N. Co. are doing a
profitable business at this point; the
boat line is doing more business than
ever, except possibly during the food
season of 1894; the warehouses have
been and are filled to nverhowing and
merchants are doing well. This is not
due SO much to returning prosperity as
to the fact that The Dalles is favorably
located, is under the bondage of no
transportation company, has a fruitful
country tributary to it and has enter
prieing business men. About all we
need to make us entirely prosperous is
pay roll that will distribute each week
good wages to goOdly number of labor
ers and mechanics.

In a recent issue of the Drover's
Journal was published statement to
the effect that the secretary of the in
terror had requested the attorney-gen-
eral to direct the United States attorney
for Oregon to commence criminal pro-
ceedings against the tresspassers upon
the forest reserves in this state, under
an act of congress of 1875. This law
prescribes fine not to exceed $500 for
each trespass. We presume this state
ment is based upon the first order of the
secretary, the one which at the request
OF Senator Mitchell Was rescinded. If
not, the government is acting in ex-
tremely bad faith, for the sheepmen who
are now on the reservation are there by
reason of the order permitting them to

man, of Msllette, s. D., possesses
a combination snake. 1t is half
garter and half sand snake, and
this peculiar combination was NJ ade
possible by a surgical operation
performed by the doctor. ais at
tention was directed to snakes
from observing that when a snake
was killed its tail appears to live
until the sun goes down, whom life
ceases. 1t is thought by many that
this is owing to the nerves, but
the doctor was some what skeptical
on this point, Being a surgeon he
dissected several, and made some
interesting discoveries. He found
that in both the sand and garter
snakes the spinal column extended
little more than halt the length OF
the body. Knowing that it was
possible to graft flesh, this led him
to chloroform them and try splicing
them, making the splice, of course,
below the end of The spinal column.
He made four unsuccessful at
tempts, but succeeded in the fifth.
The grated snake he has now ia
apparently In good health and the
joined parts are perfectly knitted
together. It's body is of the sand
snake and it's tail is garter snake 8.

A NEBRASKA LIAR.
New Orleans, La =, Nov. 16, '95.

A certain Nebraska person has
been busy In the South of late
writing lies concerning this section
and sending them back for publica-
tion in a paper published at Lincoln,
Neb., known as tie State journal :.
We have seen several of these let
ters AID bave had letters from Me-
braska telling us the secret of his
activity. The person in question
is an anti-emigratiOn agent. He IS
trying to frighten the people of that
God forsaken, wind-swept, droath-
parched, grasshopper-bitten State
into stas ing there. Most of them
have been fooled into that section
by lying immigration agents, and
now the ablest antisemigrators are
employed to keep them there. The
trouble with this fellow is that he
is OVERRIDING the business. He
pours forth his hes in one steady,
monotouous, unending food. He
has not been able to find spot
south of Mason and DixOn's line
that isn't cursed in one way or an-
other. He gave Arkansas a fear
full roast and paused on the way
thlther to double damn Memphis
and all contiguous territory. The
people of Mississippi need give no
particular heed to this fellow nor
to anything he may choose to write
OF them or their country. 1t is
not in the power of man to keep
people In Nebraska who are able
TO get away; and, knowing somes

to that God-forgotseu locality they
will pay atrls heed to the l,ars who
are trying to keep them there
