AN IMPGRTAAT VISIT
Congressman Hooker and Party View the
Columbia.

Columbia.
Sunday Hon. w. 3. Hooker, Of
New York, chairman of the house com
mittee on rivers and harbors, accom-
panied by Mrs. Hooker and children,
Mrs. Thomas ". Moore and Miss Scs
sions, of New York. came up the Col
umbia from Portland. and spent few
hours in The Dalles. The ID. L. 6, y.
N. Co. had placed at the disposal of
the party their boat Dalles City, which
left Portland at o'clock Sunday
morning, carrying besides the visiting
congressman and party Representa-
tives Ellis and Tongue, Ex-Governor
Moody. Judge Moreland and Mr.. and
Mrs. Gill, of Portland, Miss Derthn

fortu nately q cloud of smoke hovered
over the river, preventing the visitors
from abroad viewing the magnificent
scenery of the gorgue of the Columbia.
though Congressman Hooker was en-
from Portland to The Dalles, and
judge of its impor5anc, as water
way. He expressed the opinion that
it was one of the grandest rivers in the
world, and was free to state that he
considered it the province of the gov
ernment to remove all o5structions to
its navigation from the Pacific ocean
to its source.
When The D4lles City arrived here
Governor Moody secured an engine of
the .. Il. o n. Co, 1t being impos-
sible to get Il coach, and accompanied
Mr.. Hooker to ;he rapids between The
Dalles and Cello, where it is proposed
to construct the ship railways. Thus
Mr.. Hooker was given an opportunity
to personally inspect the ground over
which the next improvement to the
C5lumbia IS to be made. alI no doubt
what he saw will inllI 'nc4 his actions
when the question of appro2 2riation5
for this improvement shall be referred
to his committee at future sessions of
congress.
1t is To be regretted thlt Congress-
man Hooker could not have had more
time to frT7nirs-iato the resources of
the country to be affected by this i'm
provement, but his time was limited,
he having arranged to j,ia Congress
man Sherman, of New YORK. who was
passenger on the six o'clock train,
en- route to Yellowstone Park.
Congressman Ellis and Tongue were
called back ID Portland. hence were
unable to accompany M. Hooker to
the rapids, nevertheless the visit of the
chairman of the rivers and harbors COM
mittee cannot but be of benefit to the
Inland Empire in securing appropria-
tlons for river improvements, for Mr..
Hooker now has personal knowledge
of the needs of the country for freer
of the great waterway of
the Northwest, and this knowledge
will aid him in forming estimates OF
the amount of money required.

City Pleasant One

The Elks Make His Last Evening IN the
City Pleasant One.
Last evening G. W. Phelps was the
guest of honor Of Cascade Lodge, No.
1903, B. p. O. Elks. The occasion was
farewell entertainment given Mr..
Phelps by the lodge on the eve of his
departure to Heppner, where he goes
to enter upou the practice of his pro=
fession, having formed partnership
with Congressman w. r. Ellis, and
aside from the regrets his departure
from the city caused, it was one OF the
pleasantest sooiar events of the year.
The Elks and their ladies together
with invited guests began arriving in
the hall at 8 clock, and within half
an hour Knights of Pythias temple was
ringing with laughter and merriment.
Exalted Ruler Fish was master of
ceremonies, and in his customary
suaVe manner, readily spread good
cheer among the audience.
Dancing was the predominant
feature of the entertainments, though
this amusement was interspersed by
the rendering OF pleasing program
including a solo by Miss Myrtle
Michel, recitation by Harry Lousaale,
solo by LOta Kelsay, solo by Leila Kel-
say. This occupied the time until II
o'clock, when the Elks marched in
from the banquet hall and drank their
customary toast to departed brothers,
and. Fred W. Wilson, briefly ex-
pressed the regrets of the lodge at the
departure of their esteemed brother. |
John Hampshire was called upon for a
aud related the experience
Of Pat McDougal on joining lodge of
Elks, which was followed by a ciafionet
solo by Mark Long. At the conclusion
'f Mr.. Longs solo, the Elk's gathered
lround their departing friend to bid
lim good-by and Godspeed, when Mr..
Phelps very feelingly expressed his
leeP sense of gratitude for the tokens
'f friendship shaWa hin, and bis re-
.rets at leaving the city he had always
alled home.
At l o'clock Mr.. Phelps took the
rain for Heppner amid the good wishes
i his numerous friends who escourted

A COSTLY SHOW.
How the British People Are Taxed to
Support the Royal Family.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
At frequent intervals during the
long reign of Queen Victoria state
ments have been published showing
the great loss of the royal family to
British subjects, or, as they have now
become, British citizens, for the queen
is a sovereign only in name and the
English are but nominally subjects.
Upon her accession to the throne
Victoria made the easy concession of
all the hereditary revenues of the
crown and the proceeds Of the royal
estates in exchange for a permanent
civil list amounting to something more
than $2000,000 annually. These reve-
nues were greater than this sum, but
the cost and annoyance of collection
were such that the trade for the queen
was a good one. These millions are
to the queen, but the British people
must, in addition to supporting the
queen thus handsomely, contribute to
the support of the immense number of
Hanoverians of the royal house for
whom she Is responsible. The expense
of these amounts to nearly $l,000,000
more annually. Certain of the princes
Of the blood royal, headed by the heir
apparent, are Chargeable upon the
army and navy as generals, admirals,
colonels, etc: they also have various
allowances for keeping up palaces that
appertain to their place In a word,
the cost of the royal family to the
British taxpayer is large, but, though
| the matter has been repeatedly agitat-
| ed, such is the conservatism of Eng
| land that no appreCiabe effect results.
| Though they know it is expensive, on
! the whole the English people are well
| pleased with their royal establishment.
| 1t comes high, but they must have 1t.
| A republic i'm fact, they tickle them
selves with the nominal monarchy,
and are willing to saddle themselves
| with the cost
1t is surely their own affair, and
| they do not deceive themselves by any
claim that the foreigner pays the tax,
| for their custom houses are next to
none-at least, custom house taxation
is relatively slight.
We have in America a. school of
| politicians who assert that all tariff
taxes are paid by foreign manufac-
! turers not by American consumers
yet we pay but $4,000 year to our
| president, whereas if the effete mon
arches of Europe are supporting the
| Republican court, why should we not
lay it on pretty thick?

that the president of the United States
