The Dalles if sufficient guarantee can

Yesterday we were shown some fine
Klondike nuggets which had been sent
Mrs. Waud by the Captain. They were
seven in number and as pretty speci-
mems as we ever saw. Captain Waud
has many friends in The Dalles who
would be delighted to hear from him,
and receive some substantial proof that
they are not forgotten.
A lively alteration occurred on the
street last evening between lady who
runs boarding house and fellow who

A stick of cord wood in the hands of the

had worked hard for her money, and

THE DALLEs STILL ON TOP.
Everything Lively and We Carry the
Palm-Let us Have Manufacturies.

After the storm the calm is always
more noticeable, and it was naturally
supposed yesterday would be ''blue
Monday indeed, since last week was
such busy one. But not so. 1t takes
more than the absence of fair, or any,
thing which has ever visited US, to make
The Dalles hibernate and yield the
palm to any city ofits size in the United
States as far as business is concerned.
To prove this statement one has but to
walk about the streets of our city and
take note of the amount of business be-
ing carried on. Buildings being erected :;
wheat teams in abundance coming from
the east and the north. and returning
loaded down; country people busily en-
gagged in trading; and SO on, until we
wonder why The Dalles isn't the largest
city in the Northwest. Particularly do
we question thutly when we contem-
plate the amount OF shipping which is
continually going on in our midst and
the wool, wheat, fruit, salmon and what
not which changes hands here.
The query has been answered long
S--SN SAOSO h4OAO nDCC6uB TO luQ26
wherein lies the difficulty, and echo still
responds, "The absence of manufac-
turies." When will this be fully realized.
and the result be shown in the number
of industries which shall spring up
around us? A special dispatch to the
Post Intelligencer of Seattle from Taco
ma, dated October 2Oth, has the follow
ing, and we are now wondering if it is
sarcasm, or only one of those frequent
mistakes made by substituting The
Dalles for Dallas. Let us imagine the
dispatch authentic, and the results
which would arise thereirom. But we
fear its like the humorist vile who was
''too good to, be true:''
''It is semi-officially announced that
the Tacoma Woolen Mills Company,
whose plant here was recently DESTROYED
by fire, is to esta blish its new business
at The Dalles, Oregon. Since the burn
ing OF the big plant, and after the an
nouncenent that the company intended
resuming business, various cities and
towns in the northwest offered induce
ments to have the company locate its
new plant out of Tacoma.
After settling the insurance, the COM
posals re ceived, and 1t is now reported
the new plant is to be established at
The DalIes. The little Colum bia river
city has a large factory building all
ready for occupancy, which it has of
Tered to the company on such terms as
have proven satisfactory. The building
was erected by cooperative concern,
made up of residents of The Dalles and
surrounding country, the intention hav-
ing been to operate wooden mill on
the cooperative plan. Something in
terfered to prevent the scheme material
izing, and the big factory building has
remained Idle"
Had Nature been lees lavish in bestow-
ing her gifts upon Us, some excuse might
be offered in extenuation of our neglect.
And yet she must be still merciful to us,
for tits not our own merits or enterprise
which have gotten US the victory over
every other place on the coast when it
comes to business transacted; but the
natural advantages which The Dalles

-Oregonian.
The Dalles is to have frst-class play
Saturday night, when the Vogt opera
house will be opened for the season with
"The Airship," which has been drawing
immense crowds in Portland. For come
time complaint after complaint has been
raised on account of the scarcity of at
fractions in our city. Now is the time
to let the management know just how
anxious we are to haye good plays here
this winter. We are assured by those
who have heard ''The Airship" in Port
land of the merits of the production, and
one need not hesitate to attend for fear
of hearing snide show. Manager Kin
ersly informs US that we are also to
have the ''Puise OF New York; company
here next month.
We were reminded by the Ladies'
Home Journal, which came to our table
this morning, that the fall of the Turks
is near at hand. That excellent journal
made its appearance in Thanksgiving
attire this morning, with a gown of old
rose. Its over-skirt was embroidered
beautifully, representing very pretty
young lady strolling through meadow
of flowers and grasses, while by her side
strutted tour proud Thanksgiving birds,
seemingly unconscious of their pending
doom. Indeed our appetites almost
failed US as we thought of the cruelty of
putting an end to the ''gobble chorus"
However, we are positive this feeling is
of short duration, and Will disappear
long before invitations to Thanksgiving
dinner are being issued.
The. Dalles has a hero in her midst-
one who was among the thickest of the
fight at the famous battle of San Juan
Fred Grunow, who is now off on thirty
days furlough, and reached home last
night. Fred enlisted at Portland some
time previous to the breaking out of the
war, and was for time stationed at
Vancouver. and then moved to Boise
City. He left there with the Sixteenth
Infantry about April 2lst. Since that
time he has had experiences compared
with which the experience of lifetime
is as naught. He has been to many ia
mons battle-grounds in the meanderings
of the troops. and has heard the whiz of
shot and shell around him, to which he
says little heed is paid, as the sight of
comrades dropping around one fires the
blood to boiling heat and daring deeds.
On the 18th of September he reached
Boston completely worn out, and was
