DUTY OF PRoPERTY-owNERs.
Let Us Keep Our city Attractive BY Our
Own Efforts.

During the summer months nearly
every day brings tourists to our city,
who have come up the river for the pur-
pose of viewing the grand scenery along
its banks. This is splendid advertise
ment for The Dalles, and no doubt
much benefit is derived from it which
otherwise we would not receive.
We are often led to wonder as the
stranger within our gates" is being pI-
loted around, and is visiting the differ
ent points of interest in and near the
city, what impressions are being made
and will be transmitted to many in East
ern cities, and, peIadventure. to friends
who contemplate making their homes
on this coast.
The natural advantages of The Dalles
cannot be overestimated. Situated in
the midst of the finest farming lands i'm
aginable; right at the head of naviga-
tion, and being the shipping point for
such large amount of wool, grain,
salmon, fruit, ETC., what more fitting
place could lie required for person
wishing to make his fortune in the
Northwest? As for place of residence.
we have everything desirable. For beau
ty of situation our city cannot be ex-
celled, and no more healthful place can
be found; while for churches, good
schools, and all the requisites of an ideal
hometown, The Dalles heads tie list.
While this is true, the facts must be
demonstrated to those who come as
strangers among US, and each citizen
has duty in this regard to perform.
Outlines the casual observer Is preju-
diced by the slightest circumstance, and
perhaps surroundings which to US, on
account of their familiarity, appear as
they should be, to them would mar the
desirability and beauty of the city. For
instance, we, who have grown accustomed
to the number of vacant lots around us,
covered in debris, have no idea what an
impression is conveyed to the unbiased
beholder. We know from whence. they
came; what terrible calamity visited
US and how business houses and homes
were laid waste, while the lots on which
they stood have of necessity remained
vacant. This is unavoidable, and no
blame can be attached to the owners for
the fact. But there are many things in
this connection which might be RENE
died; tumbled down fences which
should be repaired, rubbish to be re-
moved, and around them might be
placed trees, which add SO much to the
appearance of the city.
Then, too, many are careless in the
manner in which they dispose of garb
age, and in many cases instead of being
burned, it is taken to the river-front anC
deposited at the foot of our princira
streets, where it is sure to be offensive
to the people who stroll down by th'
banks of the river in the evening.
We can do much to add to the beaut!
and attractiveness of our city. Let u
} give the matter our consideration.

Tho Priynts Secretary.

With his nourishmcnt, his goloshcs,
and his goods and chattels, the Private
Secretary makes his second visit to
Newberry ON next Monday night. Those
who saw this famous comedy here last
season are talking about it yet. 1t is
seen in the opera house here and our
amusement lovers will give Mr.. Edwin
Travcrs and his aInrable company
another warm and hearty welcome.
The company is practically the Same as
was here last season, and the following
is what the Charleston News and Cour-
ier, of Tuesday, March Is, 1893, has to
say of the performance:
GAN EXCELLENT PERFORMANCES.
"Mr. Edwin PRAYERS and his excel
lent company were given q hearty well
come at tho Academy of Music last
night. The audience was very large
and appreciative, ard The Private Sec
retary, while by no means new to
Charleston, seemed quito as entertain
ing as when first produced here.
William Gillette has written many ex-
cellent plays, but none are better than
The Private Secretary. 1t has stood
the test of time and the public appears
never to grow weary of the fun injected
into its lines. The schcme of Douglass
Cattermole (Mr. Travcrs) to evade his
creditors; the plan of the old uncle to
make his nephew SOW his wild oats
never full to move the audience, and
the extremely hard times that come to
the poor Secretary, provoke peals of
laughter. Mr.. Charles Darlington, in
the role of the Secretary, can hardly
be surpassed, and Mr.. Wallace, as the
uncle from Calcutta, forced the laugh
ter in continuous stream. The ladies
Of the company played their parts most
charmingly, ard the comedy was inter
| esting and intensely amusing from cur
| tain to curtain"
BY special arrangement the prices for
Mr.. Travers' engagement will be as fol.
lows: IS cents, so cents and % cents
Seats will be placed on sale Saturday
