LAST OF THE KLICKIrArs.
Their Traditions Buried With Their Lai

Their Traditions Buried with Their Last
Chief.
The once powerful tribe of Indians,
the Klickitats, who formerly owned a
vast country along the Columbia river
in Washington, has been reduced un-
til there are only about 100 left, and
that few is on the verge of disinte-
grafton. Their tribal history, the ira
ditions of their race for centuries, is
lost, and the ties that bound them to-
gether as one people have been broken.
1t has long been custom with the
Klickitats that their tribal history is
confded only to the head man; it has
been handed down from one chief to
another, and no one else in the tribe
is permitted to know it. This
history has kept the tribe to-
gether for generations, and now that
it is lost there is no tie to bind the
Klickitats. About three weeks ago
Quiance, the old chief, realized that
death was approaching, and called to
his bedside Sam, who was to be his
successor, and confided to him the
tribal legends. Sam retained the his
tory and was duly recognized as chief
of the tribe. Last week Chief sam
was stricken with pneumonia while
fishing at White Salmon, and was
called to the "happy hunting ground"
before opportunity was given to trans
nit the history to his successor. Thus
the tribe is deprived of its chief. its
history is lost, and disintegration
awaits it.

SERIOUS RUNAWAY.

Two Ladies Badly Hurt--Rig Completely
| Smashed Boy on Bicycle the Cause.
Monday afternoon soon after o o'clock
as Mrs. Lindsey and Mrs. Pentland
were driving east on Third street
when their horse became scared and
unmanageable at boy getting on a
| bicycle.
The horse started to run, and turneo
the corner at St. Marys academy,
throwing both ladies out. They lit on
the dirt and rocks that have been
hauled in to fill the low place on Lin
coin street, and were rendered uncon-
scious. The horse turned in the alley
behind the residence of w. II. Moody,
where he became loose from the
buggy and continued his way to the
hills, being caught by boy on horse
back soon afterward.
The ladies were taken to Mrs. Seu-
fert's, and fortunately DR.. Hollister
was coming along from his home, and
Immediately went to the ladies' assist
ance. He found that no bones were
broken, but that Mrs. Lindsey had re-
ceiyed severe bruises and very bad
cut on the lip. Mrs. Pentland was
bruised about the hips, ana her head
was giving her great pain. Both
ladies were able to walk to Mrs. Seu-
ferts, but since then, after the imme-
diate excitement was over, were un-
able to assist themselves.
The horse was secured in the East
End, and as Mrs. Lindsey had just pur-
chased new buggy and harness, the
ladies were out trying the rig when
the accident happened.

There never was a time when the
citizens of The Dalles were more nearly
of one accord in patriotism and de-
sire to celebrate the national anriver-
sary. Every body, old and young, rich
and poor, wants to make some DEM
onstration on the coming Fourth of
July. Money will be forthcoming for
the grandest celebration ever held in
Eastern Oregon, if some one will but
take the lead. All that is needed is
to say that we will celebrate and it
will be done. We would suggest that
the Commercial Club take the matter
in hand, and then we will have grand
celebration. The club never fails to
make g. success of anything under
taken.

Mr.. Gearin's Speech.

At the Baldwin opera house last
night Hon. j. NJ. Gearin, of Port
land, delivered an able address before
an enthusiastic audience. Mr.. Gearin
fixed the responsibility of the late
hold.up of the legislature upon the
republican party in such convincing
terms that none could deny, and after
arraigning that party for its extrava-
gance in administration of state af-
fairs, entered into discussion of the
money question. His argument against
the gold standard, and it's workings
against the interests of the producers,
was undeniable and was convincing
that the free coinage of silver would
result in benefit to the people gener-
ally, in that it would give them more
basic money, and would give them bet
ter prices for the product of labor.
Mr.. Gearin's address was attentiyely
listened to and frequently applauded.

Three Men Implicated--AHH III Have Been Cap
tured-One Bound Over.
Friday evening about 6 o'clock as
Martin Spellman, section foreman for
the o. r. & N. at Cello, returned to
his house he found the place had been
broken into, doors smashed and the
rooms generally overturned.
He remembered seeing two men on
the track west of Cello, and in COM
pany with Victor Norby and two
Cinnamon started in pursuit. They
met the men near the mess house and
demanded their surrender. One of
the men got away. but John May was
captured and place0 on the hand car
and brought to town along with the
stoleL property.
Coming down Second street that
evening the procession created quite
little excitement, and by the time
the city Jail was reached, there was
quite a crowd following. May was
searched, but there was nothing OF
value found on his person. He gave a
description of his pals to Marshal
Lauer, who Immediately telegraphed
to the authorities at Grants to watch
for the man going east. Nothing could
be learned from that place about the
man, as he had not been seen since.
Saturday Marshal Lauer kept his
weather eye open and succeeded
in locating the other two mer
who were implicated in the robbery
He found them about a half mile
below the o. r. & N. Co.'S. shops. ap
parently biding in the rocks. They
were brought to town, and were identi
fed by My as his confederates. Th'
| property stolen consisted of two coats
two pair of pants, two suits of under
wear, mackintosh,a "a pair of shoes ant
! a gold watch chain. May had his ex
animation before Judge Filloon yester
| day and was bound in the sum of 500
to appear before the grand jury.

Settlers Coming Here

Low rates from the Eas. have
brought here large numbers of farmers
and their families from Wisconsin,
Michigan, Minnesota, the Dakotas
and other Mississippi valley states,
and a good many farms in Oregon and
Washington will change hands as a
consequence. Many of these heads of
families have money, from S25O0 to
$4,000. They usually put up at the
dollar-a-day hotels with their families
while looking over the list of farms
offered for sale. The war, of course,
affects their movements as we'll as
others. But" a prominent real es
tate dealer said today, "Wait till the
war is settled, and Oregon will hear
something drop. People are tired of
billiards. and cyclones, and are begin
ming to find out what a lovely state
Oregon is to live in. The farmer who
buys land in Oregon now runs no risk,
as the price of all farm property is
bound to come up very soon."

Way mosrx Is SCARCE
We Send Too Much Away for What We
Consume.

Often citizens of The Dalles wonder
Why money should be scarce after
& good crop of everything that is raised
in this country has been harvested
and marketed at good prices; but if
they would only investigate they could
easily discover an answer to their
query. They would ascertain the cause
is We are sending too much money
out of the country for articles of con-
sumption that we should produce at
home. In short, we are all too anx-
ious to get something imported, be.
lievlng it is better than the domestic
product.
We send abroad for our wooden
goods, most of our tinware, all of our
agricultural implements, household
furniture and large amount of what
we eat. Every can of fruit or veget-
| ables we consume is imported, as is
also much OF our hams, bacon and
lard. Possibly we are compelled ID
| send away for some articles, but others
vinced that the domestic product is as
| good as the imported. Take for in
stance the hog products. We have
butchering establishments here that
produce as good quality of hams. ba-
con and lard as are made anywhere in
| the world, still there are those who
want something imported. And an
other Item is that of beer, that takes
thousands of dollars away from The
Dalles every year. One who is con-
versant with the subject, says from
$500 to $1,000 month-a are sent out of
The Dalles for beer alone. Say it is
$1,000 d month. this means $4,000 a
year. All this could be kept at homo
if the people would but content them.
selves with the domestic product OF
the Columbia brewery, which is as
palatable and wholesome beer as is
made any place in the world. If the
liquor dealers of the city would but
form combination and agree to keep
none but Columbia beer on draught,
it would be but short time
until none would be imported. AS a
result 5000 year would be retained
in The Dalles, great brewing Indus
try would be built up. and this city
would soon become an exporter instead
of an importer.
In other lines the opportunity is the
same, if our people would but become
patriotic, and demand home products
in preference to imported articles.

A Chance for The Dalles.

The Michigan Pipe Co., OF Bay City,
Mich, is looking toward the Pacific
coast for location in which to estab-
lish a branch shop, and representa-
tive of the firm has been cores
ponding with parties with refer
ence to locating in The Dalles.
The company makes specially of
manufacturing wood pipe that is equal
to iron for durability, and is less ex-
pensive. 1t would be fine industry
in The Dalles, and we would sugges-
that the Commercial Club leok into
the matter. Any information con-
cerning the proposed industry will be
gladly furnished by Surveyor Colt.
