Lecture Tomorrow Night.


The committee of arrangements for the
lecture course regret that Judge Nc
Arthur being unable tc come and fill
that part of the program assigned to
him, they could not arrange for this
lecture by Hon. B. B. Beckman on "Our
Martyred President and Statesman"
to be delivered April 10Th, and thus
commemorate reverently the event that
threw gloom over the civilized world.
The month in which that tragedy took
place has not yet expired. This time
thirty-oue years ago eyes blinded with
tears were scarce beginning to see rift
in the clouds. 1t is fitting then for us
who would not forget our rich and ter
rible legacy as nation to remember
this event as sacred time. The in
creasingly immense Lincoln literature,
now in the hands of the entire reading
public, makes this more formal tribute
to his memory especially reasonable.
The lecture will take place tomorrow
evening at the Congregational church.

Some Good suggestions.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Nc
Bride has secured provision approprI-
ating $50, 900 for continuing the work at
the Cascades, $40, 900 of which shalI be
used for extending the walls of the lock,
SO that it may be opened for commerce.
The appropriation is intended to secure
the building of another lock.
EDITOR CHRoN1cLE-The above clip
ping from the Oregonian of April 26th
shows that our delegation is at work and
have not forgotten us, and we should be
thankful for all favors, large or small !;
but for the sake of suffering humanity,
don't try and build another lock. The
two that are started have been in pro-
gress for twenty-six years, and we can't
wait eighteen years more. But would
suggest to Senator Mcbride that if we
must have another one, to try and Sc
cure the right of way on the other side
of the river and work them SO as to cup
ply Day Bros. and all u. S. engineers
who are out of employment.
I would like to call the attention of
Capt. Fisk to the contract of the Day
Bros, and ask if it is completed. Please
let US know what is lacking. I ask this
to find out what all of these men now
at work are doing. Last fall 1 visited
the locks and there were about rs or
100 men at work and 1 was informed
that they were so nearly completed that
the main force had been discharged.
Certainly there can be no complaint of
Nigh water; yet what is the matter
The people here and above wish to
know.
Would it not be better for Senator
Mcbride to ask for a committee of in
vestigation, not of officials. but of prac-
teal engineers, outside of government
pots. PIONEER.

NOTED EVANGELIST COMING.
a Proposition to Hold Union Services
for Ten Days.
apr24-d1W


Rev. j. H. Wood has been in cores
pondence with a noted evangelist who
has been touring the country for the
past twelve years, Chas. N. Crittenton
by name, with the object in view of Sc
curing him for The DalIes. 1t was only
by prompt and energetic work that a
promise was given Mr.. Wood by Mr..
Crittenton to come to The Dalles for ten
days, as Portland was working heroic
ally to secure him, and this was contin-
gent upon all the churches of the city
uniting in union service, and foregoing
for that length of time all other meetings
and entertainments.
Mr.. Crittenton was New York mil
lionaire, who became so much interest
ed in gospel work that he gave up his
business to engage in it. The Florence
mission of New York City was estab-
lished and endowed by Mr.. Crittenton.
This is home for fallen women, and
the mission bears the name of his daugh-
ter. 1t is great power for good in New
York, and reaches and benefits all
classes of people. For twelve years
Mr.. Crittenton has been on the road.
FIe has car fitted up, which is known
as the gospel car" Two other evan
gelists and good vocalist to lead the
singing accompany him. Meetings are
now going on in La Grande. May 18th
is the date proposed for the beginning of
the ten days. session in The Dalles.
The other ministers, so far as known,
hova fallon in roodilv with tho nIon for
grand union meeting, and arrange
ments win be made to secure proper
hall for the meetings.
