ABSOLUTELY PURE
A CITY TO MOVE.
The Inhabitants of Ouro-Preto Grow Tir
of Its DiscomfOrtS

The Inhabitants of Ouro-Preto Grow Tired
of Its Discomforts.
The greatest exodus that the world
has ever seen since the children of Israel
departed out of the land of Egypt,
nearly $500 years ago, will soon take
place in Brazil.
All the inhabitants Of city Of over
10000 population, the capital Of one of
the largest and richest states of that
country, will in short time abandon
their homes en- masse. What makes this
wholesale exodus more remarkable is
the fact that these 20, 900 people will
move in body into new city, which
for two years has been in process of
erection for their occupancy. and which
Is as yet unteGanted save by the artl-
sans and laborers who are putting the
finishing touches to the miles Of streets
and the spacious public buildings and
private palaces.
The city which is on the point of
being thus abandoned to the wild beasts
which swarm in the forests about it is
Ouro-Preto, the capital Of the mining
state of Minas- Geraes, in the southeast
ern part of Brazil. 1t was founded near
ly two centuries ago by the gold seekers.
Ouro-Preto has been unique among
cities for several reasons, one being that
1t has but single street, and that sew
eral miles in length. The town is built
along a narrow gorge in the mountains,
known as the Sierra de Minas- Geraes, a
part of the mighty chain which rises far
back from the coast Of eastern Brazil.
Though it lies some s, 900 feet above
the sea level, the air is always so damp
that everything not kept il i.lrtIght
cases becomes widowed thin short
time. There is no such ting as car
riage of any description il this noun
tain city, and even riding mule back is
dangerous, for the single ;. rect, which
twists and winds for miles is probably
the toughest in the world, there being
but few level stretches of more than a
dozen yards in all its length A portion
OF it lies along deep chasiu ut the bot
tom of which roars one of the mountain
torrents which help to MAJ The great
Rio de Francisco
Another emarkable thing about this
town is that fully half of the inhabitants
have lived of late years in the exhausted
galleries which the miners have hewn
out of the rock along the mountain side
i'll their search for gold. The other
dwellings are perched at varying heights
up and down the sides of the steep
spurs which jut into and sometimes al
most cross the narrow pass.
The new city which the people Of
Ouro-Preto are having built for them
will be the direct antithesis of the old.

THE NEW ERA.

The river and harbor bill, carry
ing a $4,000 appropriation for the
completion of the Cascade locks,
opening the river to navigation,
which passed both houses of congress
over the presidents veto, removes
the last obstacle to the great com
mercial opportunities of the Inland
Empire. Millions of pounds of wool,
hundreds of thousands of bushels of
wheat, our enormous yearly salmon
output and our great and increasing
yield of fruits of the tree and vine
will hereafter have the advantage of
the cheapest possible transportation
that of river steamboating. This
places The Dalles in the same Gale
CORY as the big commercial cities
along the Mississippi river, cheapen-
ing our imports and lessening trans
portation charges on our exports.
Twenty five years ago the foremost
citizens of Oregon, appreciating the
vast resources of the Inland Empire,
tributary TO the great Columbia
river, resources as varied as vast, in
cluding stockraising, grain, fruit, fish,
and general farming, began an agita-
ton for the removal of the obstruc-
4icDs of tho Cascades IN enable these
great mercantile commodities to
have the advantages of water trans
portation. The four or five years
which they then considered ample
to complete this Improvement length
ened TO ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty
two, twenty three, and now in the
close of the twenty fourth the dream
attains realization. There remains
but a slight amount of work to be
done to complete piece of work on
the middle lock. A sufficient
amount has been appropriated to
complete it,. and the appropriation is
Immediately available. The present
season will see the work completed,
and the Inland Empire will take its
proper place in the great world of
commerce

commerce

A weeks work of congress is
summed up in the advancement of
three appropriation bills, the final
passage of one, and the adoption of
the bill to exclude illiterate immi-
grants by the. house. The act to re-
strict Immigration in the case of
males of mature age TO persons who
can read and write the English or
some other language was first amend
ed to exclude aliens who retain their
homes in some foreign country.
This is aimed at the French Canadl-
ans, who flock into New England and
the cities along our lakes, to earn
and save the high wages we pay, and
then return to their villages in
Quebec. 1t will involve some nice
distinctions as to what constitutes a
home in foreign country, and prob
ably will break down uDder the in
depreciation of the courts, which
rarely sympathize with such restric-
tions. The main provision of the
bill is harmless, because it presents
no real check to desirable immigra-
ton. Those who wish to come will
soon master the arts of reading aud
writing, if they have them not all
ready. Neither will it check the
undesirable immigration of anarch-
lists and socialists, who are generally
educated up to the higher average
Of the working classes cf northern
and central Europe.
