al THE PORTLAND MERCHANTS.
They Were Entertained by Dalles Dealer
for Two Hours.
The special train carrying the Por'
land wholesale merchants who ha
been touring the upper country al
rived here at o'clock Monday after
noon, and stop of two hours was mad
in order that they should have an op
portunity to cultivate more intimat
acquaintance with Dalles people. Th'
weather was decidedly unfavorable TO
getting around, rain and snow having
poured down during the entire after
noon. but the the Portlanders are no
unaccustomed TO falling weather
hence they made the best OF the situa
tion and apparently enjoyed them
| selves. .-"-
The train was met at the depot by
Judge Blakeley and Messrs. Pease and
Ireland, and was escorted down First
street to in front of the Commercial
Club rooms, where it was stopped, and
the visitors alighted and proceeded to
| the clubs home in dreadful shower,
but the weather outside made the COM
| fort of the club parlors that much more
acceptable, so that the Portlanders
were made 20 realize that while the
elements were angry, The Dalles ex-
tended to them hearty and most cor
dial greeting.
After accepting the courtesies of the
club for an hour, the visitors sought
shelter under umbrellas and started
out for tour of the city, visiting their
numerous customers and friends at
their respective places of business, and
