Looked on With Favor,

The Goldendale Sentinel says P. L.
Campbell's scheme for establishing
wagon train connection between that
place and the outside world is meeting
with favor with the people of Klickitat
county. The question though that is
bothering them is whether to go
through High Prairie to Lyle or to
The Dalles. If the road goes to The
Dalles, her people will help build the
road. but the company will lcse the
hauling of the wheat of the High
Prairie country. But on the other
hand terminal rates are to be had at
The Dalles and that town is also a
good place for our people to stop over
night in travelling to and from this
county. The desire of the promoters
of the scheme is to obtain possession
of the right-of-way of the railroad sur
vey from here to Centerville and
grade the same, which could be used
for an electric railway from here to
The Dalles at some future time If de-
sired. From Centerville the road
would run toward the mountain, over
which an even grade would be. built.
The company will obtain the rigbt-of-
wav, so That at any future time part of
it can be used for railroad grade. II
The Dalies wants the road, let her
take the initiatory and sign for one
half of the stock; our people will raise
the balance.

Are They Timid?

Yesterday two prominent republi-
cans were discussing the political out
look, and were beraIing Mr. Brigham.
a staunch republican, for travelling
over the the county delivering free
silver speeches, which one OF them de-
clared would work to the detriment of
the four republican legislative nomi-
nees, who are all avowed gold men.
At this point in the conversation. a
bystander enquired what the four
gentlemen referred to were doing. that
they are not out delivering speeches
for GOLD, and desired to know if they
were to timid too get out among the
people and talk for sound money? He
thought four talented and able gentle
men, as they are all recognized to be,
ought certainly to be able to counter
act the damage one lone speaker could
do. There are other voters in the dis
trict who would also like to know why
these gentlemen are not out whooping
it up for gold and republicanism.
Gentlemen, don't be timid: don't hide
your "light under a bushel," but get
out and let it shine.

A Valuable Discovery.

A bank of fire clay of excellent quail
ity has been discovered within five
miles of The Dalles. Mr.. Burns, the
mining expert, has secured a quantity
of the clay, and will make thorough
test of it. Mr.. Burns consideres the
clay OF as good quality as the best that
is received from Europe, and if it can
De converted into fire brick, he will
take steps to further develop the pros
pect. The bank is said to be quite ex-
teasiYe, and if the quality of the clay
is as good as Mr.. Burns believes it
to be, it will prove valuable dis
covery. Most of the fire brick used in
the United States come from Europe,
and have commercial value of 25
cents each. The cost of preparing the
clay and making brick is little greater
than that of making ordinary brick,
hence there would be an enormous
profit in manufacturing them if
proper quality of clay can be had.

Both Water and Coal.

Mr.. A. Buchler. proprietor of the
Columbia brewery, has been more than
fully repaid for his expenditures in
prospecting for artesian water. A 12-
foot coal vein was struck at the depth
of 10 feet, mention of which was made
some time since, another small vein
was gone through at depth of l20 feet
and today what he was prospect
ing for was struck at a depth of 125
feet. JUS after noon the drill, after
passing through remarkably hard
strata of rock, dropped distance of IS
inches into Il vein of pure water. So
far the water has not risen to the
surface, but there is evidently an
abundant supply. The coal and water
are both valuable discoveries. and if
they prove as extensive as they appear
will cause corner lots in Tho Dalles to
double in price in very short time,
even if the locks are not opened this
season.

Through Siberia on a Wheel.

Until the present no cyclist has in
vaded Central Siberia. r. L. Jeffer-
son, an En- -lish wheelman, who has a
penchant for riding long distances and
into strange countries, has started for
that part of the world. He will finish
his ride at Irkutsk. With good for
tune, he will reach there by first
travelling along the northern boundary
of Holland to Hamburg. From there
he will make for St. Petersburg, and
thence to Moscow. From Moscow he
will cross the Ural mountains aid over
the Siberian table lands to Omsk, and
Kranoiarsk, thence to Irkutsk.
The distance covered will be about
5000 miles, and the rider expects that
he will be all of five or six months in
making the trip.

Birthday Observations.

Last Saturday was Mrs. ]. B. Cros-
sens 42d anniversary, and number of
her lady friends determined to COM
memorate the. event by giving her an
agreeable surprise. Hence a party
consisting of Mesdames Sinnott, Lytle,
Thorn bury. Bradshaw, Glenn, Grove,
w. II. Wilson, Hudson, Kinersly,
Fish, Peters and Hobson assembled
unannounced at Mrs. Crossen's resi-
dence at 8 o'clock, and devoted the
remainder of the afternoon to pleas
antry. No special programme was
arranged, though most agreeable
surprise was given the. hos5ess and
was an enjoyable afternoon for the
guests. After devoting the afternoon
to music, conversation, ETC., the ladies
bade Mrs. c. .adieu, hoping the fleet of
time woulu be unnoticed and thai AZ
years more may pass by without leav-
ing the marks of years upon her brow.

In his recent report B. S. Pague
states the fruit crop of Wasco county
is the most promising of any in the
state. While we do not desire to gain
notoriety for Wasco through the mis-
fortunes of other localities, this is an
item that should attract the attention
of home seekers, those who are in
search of places to locate and engage
in fruit growing. Let them look to
a place that produces the best quality,
aud where crops are always certain.
When they do, they will invaribly
come to Wasco county.

WILL HAVE TO HANG.
Carl AIbrecht is Convicted of Murder in
the First Degree

Carl Albrecht is Convicted of Murder in
the First Degree
Friday, at Medford the jury which
tried Carl Albrecht for the murder of
his wife, on Feb. Is, returned a ver-
dict of murder in the first degree, after
Is minutes deliberation, and barring
the possibility of executive clemency
being extended. he will have to hang.
The deed for which he is to suffer
was a premeditated. cold blooded af
fair, and was committed because his
wife refused to support him. Albrecht
had been very cruel to the woman for
a number of years, and his treatment
became so bitter week before the
crime that sh left him and instituted
divorce proceedings. Albrecht did
his utmost to get her to return, and
February II said that he would talk no
longer, but would kill her. The next
day, after Mrs. Albrecht returned
from doing days washing for the
family of John Preuss, in South Marsh
field, he made good his threat.
When his dastardly deed was COM
mitted, Albrecht turned and pointed
his revolver at himself, as if he were
going TO take his own life, and then
took to his heels to get out of reach of
the officers. William Webster shadow
ed him in his fight, Albrecht keeping
him at a respectable distance by
threatening to shoot. Webster pointed
out Afbrecht's hiding place to
Marshal Elrod, who went up to him
and ordered him to hold up his hands;
but Albrecht only held up one, and
was in the act of shooting Elrod when
the latter fired. The third shot brought
the wife-murderer to the ground. At
first it was thought that Albrecht
would die, but on examination it was
found that he received only flesh
wounds.
