Circus.

On next Thursday there will be a
circus here. Doubtless it will attract
the attention and bring to the city
many circus going people and not a
few of which will spend their last
dime to see the same monkey and take
in the same clown acts that they saw
years ago. Money spent this way
brings no returns; it does not buy the
needed bread and meat, neither does
it pay any of the little bills already
due. The person who has money to
spare, after meeting all the demands

When we think OF SPANS past eX-
: Eoeriences in the American colonies
ElzGt formerly belonged to her, we are
9saabled to put proper estimate upon
der oft-repeated declaration that she
gWiu never, under any circumstances,
give up Cuba. She made a similar
declaration in the case of each of her
T0rgaer colonies that broke her power
aud gained its independence. She
fought for years to retain Mexico,
SCeRtral America and her vast posses
rssous in South America, all of which
w2iquishedher armies and turned their
colaaial dependence into republican
Independence. She gave them up, one
after one after fighting as hard to keep
siien as she has fought to keep Cuba
IL was without avail that she wasted
life and treasure in her struggle with
fiRem. We hear great deal about
SPANS pride; but she was certainly
as proud when she waged her other
American wars, and failed in them, as
she can be in our time. Spain has
suffered more defeats and greater
losses of territory in the nineteenth
.rentury than any other European
scou utry.
When Cuba shall be lost TO her she
will suffer no further loss on this side

declares is the. best to fill Hermann's
place. Hermann may not be we'll
rounded statesman in all respects, but
he has proven himself hard worker,

priL cipal fault; but the vote in the
house of representatives showed that the
danger from that source is passing.
While it is our opinion that Hermann
represents the people of the first district

pie of the second district have all they
can do determining whether or not Ellis
shall be reelected. According to the

THE BEST LOCATION.

Pendleton, the most enterprising town
for it's size in Oregon, will next have
woolen mill. Work on the new struc-
ture is now progressing at a very rapid
rate. The Dalles is the best location in
the state for such an institution, also a
wool securing mill, and we hope to see
both these enterprises established before
many years.-Antelope Herald.
The Herald is right when it says TIE
Dalles is the best location in the state
for a wooden and securing mill. This
city is the largest wool shipping point
direct from the producers In the United
States, and why such favorable loca-
ton for a wooden mill should be neg
lected, is past understanding. No city
| in the state possesses better transporta-
ton facilities than The Dalles. The eli
mate is well suited for manufacturing
purposes; wood and water power abund-
ant. The fault is not with nature; is it
not with ourselves?
The future of The Dalles is connected
with manufacturers. Every effort should
be made to induce their location here
while land is cheap and labor plentiful
This is another opportunity for the
Commercial Club to benefit the town
If committee we're appointed whose
business it would be to correspond witt
capitalists regarding the establishment
of industries here, much good woulc
result. Constant agitation is necessary
before a benefit of this sort can be sc,
cured.

4 TTME- WORN 'THENE.

For twenty years the Cascade locks
have been theme uppermost in the
minds of the people of Eastern Oregon.
When the work began it was believed
few years would see it finished, but re-
peated delays caused repeated disap-
pointments, till what promised to be an
early realization became only cherished
hope. During these twenty years ap
proximately $3,500,000 have been spent
in the various details of the work; q
sum sufficient, in the minds of compe-
tent judges, to do the work twice over.
When, after years of waiting, the people
despaired of ever seeing them finished,
a mighty effort was made, and congress
responding, the work was let by cor
tract. This was believed solution of
the problem, and the completion of tt e
locks, without unnecessary delay,
seemed assured. Nothing was said
about defects in the plans existin-.
which would prevent their operation,
nor was it limited that the appropriation
was not large enough to meet the re-
quirements. The people were given to
understand, and our representatives in
congress stated, in letters and upon the
platform, that the locks would, within
the specified time, be completed and the
benefits of an open river secured. Dates
were set for the completion of the work,
and changed as many times as fixed
but the people trusted in the statements
made to them, and believed it was the
honest intention of the men in charge to
complete the locks at the earliest oppor-
tunity. This opinion does hot exist
now.
It is idle to speculate what is the in
huence working against the opening oi
the locks. There can be but one-the
railroad. 1t is the influence of the cor
porations that has blasted men in high
places and made them instead of SER
wants of the people, tools to a money
power. The locks, in their present con.
dition, are no better than if the first
spadeful had never been turned. The
people have asked for bread, and been
given a stone. It Is foolish to trust in
the promises of men whose word is
proven to be unreliable, and the people
should rely upon their own efforts. The
locks must be open. To leave them in
their present condition, nearly finished
and yet not operative, is burning sin
Our delegation in congress, three o
whom are active candidates for re-elec
ton, should be made to feel the temper
of the people, SO that they will tak'
steps to have thespresent condition abat
ed and the completion of the locks or
dered. 1t is useless to try and place tht
blame. That condition exists, which
must be bettered. To get the peopl,
aroused is the first thing, and ever,
commercial organization should be aler
to lend it's influence to cause the open
: ing of the locks.
Our suspicious may be unjust, and
SO, We will gladly apologize; but the
s are justified by the circumstances whic
exist at the locks at this, the promise'
time of opening.
