Wednesday afternoon Helen and
Grace Peters entertained a host
of their little friends, and for
several hours the pleasant home of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. T. Peters rang
with the childish glee OF the
merry little ladies and gentlemen who
were present. It was purely chill
dren's party, those participating rang
ing from two to eight years of age. and
it was indeed happy sight to see the
youthful men and women romping
over the lawn and amusing themselves
with childish sport. After they had
tired of play, Mrs. Peters seated the
youthful guests to dainty lunch, such
as children most enjoy, and when the
lunch was finished each of the guests
was presented with bon-bon, q
souvenir OF the happy event. The little
folks present were: Katherine and
Wallace Taylor, Nita and Chrystal

THIS YEARS WOOL CLIP.
Oregon and California Run Close Race.
Montana Leads the Country.

Oregon and California Run Close Race.
Montana Leads the Country.
The National Association of Wool
Manufacturers has recently completed
its annual estimate of the wool clip of
the United States for 1896, and the
results arrived at are striking and in
teresting. The estimate is based, as
heretofore, upon the return of the de-
partment of agriculture of the number
of sheepin the country on April l, 1895,
the return showing total of 36, ,464, 405
sheep, which is loss of 3, 49,, ,903 sheep
since the last report, and the smallest
total reported by the department since
1875. The clip of these sheep is esti-
mated, following the English method,
by ascertaining, by extensive cores
pondence with growers. dealers and
manufacturers, the average weight
of the fleeces in the several states,
and multiplying the number of sheep
in each state by that state average.
This has long been accepted as the
most feasible method of arriving at
the approximate total clip of the
country.
In carefully compiled table which
accompanies the report, the produc-
tion in wool in ca :h state and territory
in the Union is given. Montana leads
in the number of sheep and output of
wool, having 1859, ,657 head, producing
tnis clip 2l,53O,0l3 pounds of washed
and unwashed wool, and 1920, 0,204
pounds If secured. The Montana fleece
averages It pounds, those of California
and Oregon and pounds respec-
lively.
1t is interesting 10 note how closely
the wool industry of California and
Oregon compares in volume. Califor-
mia has 2, ,739, ,967 sheep. which clipped
10, ,l79, ,765 pounds of washed and un-
washed wool, with 65 per cent of
shrinkage. OF secured wool she put
out 6,7l2,919 pounds.
Oregon has 2,4S6,247 sheep, from
which were secured I9,SS9,9 pounds
of washed and unwashed wool, with 90
per cent of shrinkage. The secured
wool amounted to $685. 1872 pounds.

Hurrah For kingsley.

On Friday evening of last week w.
]. Bryan club was organized at Kings.
ley with a membership of so. The
meeting was one of the most en-:
thusiastic so far held in the county,
and indicates that the sturdy farmers
of Kingsley precinct are awake to their
interests. An old veteran and life
long republican was elected president,
and in thanking the club for the honor
conferred upon him said he fought
four long years to maintain the Union.
and now to be called an anarchist for
having the independence to oppose
the attempt of the corporations and
trusts to gain control of the govern
ment, was an insult he would resent BY
voting for VIM. J. Bi yam for president,
as will large majority of the residents
of Kingsley precinct.

A RAY OF HOPE.
An Open River to the Sea May Soon Be
Realized,

heal1ZeQ.
The probability that the canal and
locks at Cascades will be completed at
an early date appears to be brighter
than ever before. and that boats will
be running from here to Portland be
tween now and the last of November
seems now to be assured. The con-
crete wall on the south side OF the
canal, between the upper guard gate
and the lock gate is now completed to
a height of II feet, and is virtually fin
ished. The work on the north side is
being pushed with all possible rapidity,
the concrete wall to the top of the
culvert, height of five feet, being
nearly completed. When this concrete
work is done, stone masons will begin
laying the stone wall, which will be u
feet high, and will be pushed to COM
pletion.
The contractors dredger is working
on the lower bulkhead, and will have
an opening through in short time so
that a dredger can be passed through
the locks from below to begin opening
the upper bay. Everything points TO
an early completion of the work, and
the people of The Dalles need not be
surprised to see a boat arrive from the
lower river within a week.

GOLD IN MILL CREEK.

Rich Specimens of Quartz Taken From
the Gravel Right Here In Town.
Considerable excitement has been
caused in the city by the finding of a
specimen of rich gold quartz in the
gravel that is being used in construct
ing the cement walk around the court
house grounds. This morning Col.
Freeman, one of the contractors, was
leveling down the gravel, preparatory
to putting on a coat of cement, when
he noticed piece of quartz, about two
inches square, and on examining it,
found that it was rich in gold. Pieces
of gold, from the size of 4 pin head to
a quarter of an inch in diameter, show
ing all oyer it. The gravel in which
the quartz was found was hauled from
Mill creek just above the Fourth street
bridge by Joe Berger. A few years
ago one of Ralph Gibbons sons picked
up similar piece of quarts few hum
hred feet below that point, hence, it is
believed the gravel is rich in like
specimens. The quartz which Col.
Freeman found shows little indication
of having been washed, therefore it is
presumed that the ledge from which
it come is not far distant. Prospect

THE SAME OLD STORY.
Eore Taxes for the People Will Produce
Prosperity, Says Mr.. Crayan

The first republican gun of the cam
| paign in Wasco county was fired by
he republicans at the court house
last pi@ht by Hon. Ii. w. Cravau. of
Seattle. The seating capacity of the
circuit court room in the court house
was all taken. when F. W. Wilson
arose and introduced the speaker. as
one of the ablesh advocates OF repubii-
cahism, as taught by r. Mckinley,
and there was none who doubted Mr..
Wilson's statements either then or
after the speaker had concluded his ad-
dress.
Mir. Cravan began by reading from
the reports of Bradstreey's and L. G..
Dunn & Cos. commercial agencies to
prove that all present ills were the re-
suit of the election of Grover Cleve-
land to the presidency in 1892. These
reports showed a great prosperity at
the end OF 1892 and the reverse at the
end of 1893. which the speaker con-
sidered undisputable evidence that the
panic of 1893 was the result ofa change
of the tariff policies of the government,
though he neglected to state that there
was no change in the tariff law prior
to August l. 1894, and that the only
legislation the democratic congress
enacted prior to Dec. 81, 1893, the date
to which he referred as the great finan-
cial crash, except the repeal of the
Sherman law for the purchase of silver.
After disposing of the tariff question
to his own satisfaction, denouncing
Cleveland's administration as a fail |
ure without even referring to the fact |
that Mckinley, if elected, would pur
sue the same financial policy and re-
ferring to the Chicago platform as an !!
anarchistic declaration, Mr.. Cravan |
turned to the money question. His
was that with free coinage |
Of any metal, money coined of that
metal would have the purchasing
power only of the bullion in that coin.
He held up Mexican dollar and an
American dollar as an object lesson,
Ind pathetically explained that the
ormer had only half the purchasing
,ower of the latter. Then he branched /
'ff into gloomy picture of the results
hat would follow should Bryan be
elected, and declared that children
would cry at their mothers feet for
read.
His address had little effect in con-
icning the thinking mind that free
oinage was not the right thing for the
people, and an idea of how
e succeeded in converting voters to
be cause of Mckinley can best be
ldged from the expression of an old
who, after listening to Mr..
raven said he and three other demo-
rats had made up their minds to vote
but after having heard
lr. Craven's speech they concluded
nat Bryan was the man for them, and 1
nat he will receive their support.

ing parties will likely be formed soon
to hunt for the ledge, and it 10 by no
means improbable that The Dalles
may yet become great mining camp.
The finding OF the quarts calls 10 the
minds of many of the Old residents ui
The Dailes, that years ago Mr.. Rodu-
vuldt mined on Mill creek stme u or
ID miles above The Dulles, and realized
from two to three dollars day ground
sluicing. At that time Mr.. Pcntland
owned The Dtlies water works, and
The mining muddicd the water. so he
induced Mr.. Roduvaldt to quit mining
and enter his service in the old grlst
mill. This facs causes many to have
sreat confidence in the existence of Il
rich quartz ledge somewhere on Tie
creek, for the placer gold that MIR.
Roduvaldt took out in early days must
have been supplied from ledge near
1T hand.

Dal,es Fruit In colorado.

Some time since John Bonn sent a
sample box of Hungarian prunes from
his orchard in The Dalles to his son,
Gus Bonn, in Colorado. The prunes
were such curiosities in Colorado, they
being superior to anything ever before
seen there, that Gus concluded to put
them on exhibition at the Colorado
state fair, and they took first prize for
size and Equality. They were admired
by all visitors at the fair, and the at
teption attracted will no doubt create
a great demand for Dalles prunes in
Colorado next year.

a GOOD WORD FOR THE DALLEs
Freight Agent Harder Gives This City a
Good Send on

Good Send on.
About $50, 900 pounds of wool will be
shipped from The Dalles, on consign-
ment, to Boston, this week, by MIR.
Pease, of the mercantile firm of Pease
& Mays, of The Dalles, says the Ore
gonian. This is the principal ship
ment that has thus far been made this
season. General Freight Agent Har-
der, of the Great Northern, WHO has
just returned from visit to Eastern
Oregon and Washington, said in reply
to an inquiry yesterday, regarding the
movement of products East:
"This weeks shipment of wool from
The Dalles will bring the total ship,
ments thus far made this season up to
about 1000, 900 pounds. But both buy
ers and producers are holding off until
after the election. Shipments are
made on consignment, as buyers don't
want to risk too much and sellers want
more than is offered.
- There is strong movement of
salmon, wheat and fruit from The
Dalles now. Seuferb Bros and Her
rick's canneries have shipped a total
of 10000 cases of salmon this season.
The Dalles Commission Company has
shipped a number of caroads of prunes
and sugar plums, on which very fair
prices have been realized.
Large quantities of wheat from the
ranches are coming into
The Dalles for shipment daily. 1t is
nearly all of good quality, much less
damage having been done by the hot |
winds early in the spring than was an.
The Dalles is certainly an
important distributing point. 1t is,
becoming greater in this respect every
day. The merchants are live people.
The Vogt block, a large modern build
ing with fine stores, has just been COM
pleted. 1t would be a credit to any
city in the country. Then the A. NJ.
Williams drygoods, store S0xl00 feet,
great modern department store, with
huge plate glass windows, has also
been erected this year, as we'll as
lozen or more fine private residences.
It certainly looks as if The Dalles hasa
great future and knows it,"

WAS a FALSE STATEMENT.

The oregonian's Hired Liar at washing

The Washington correspondent Of
the Portland Oregonian asserted in
Mondays issue that Chairman Jones,
of the democratic national committee,
had given up all hope of carrying
Bryan through, etc. The East Ore
gonian telegraphed Chairman Jones,
asking if there were any foundation
for the statement, and here is his
answer:
"Chicago, Sept. 22.-To the Daily
East Oregonian Publishing Co.: The
statement that I have given up hope
of Bryan's election, which you say is
telegraphed to Oregon from Washing
ton, is an absolute falsehood, without
shadow of foundation. 1 was never
as confident of his election as am to-
day and I have absolutely no doubt of
his success. JAMES K. JONES'"
