There is one thing lacking in the
new bridge the o. r. & N. Co. has
built across Mill creek. A splenpid
promenade has been constructed on
either side of the track about half way
across the stream, and there it ter
inmates. Had the promenade been
extended across to the west bank, it
would have been very convenient for
the young people of the town, as it
would have made an attractive stroll,
and no doubt the young men of the
city would have donated enough to
have extended it across had the CON-
pany called on them.

The Lutheran Church Is now com.
plete and the architect, Mr.. A. Ander-

mittee to accept the building, and
taken all farther responsibility for the
same, under the condition ,that the
building committee will employ me-
chanics to correct some mistakes made
by the contractors and will put the
building in a condition 80 it will be
fully in keeping with the plans and
specifications. The building commit
tee has accepted the building aud has
paid the full price of the contract and
also liberal price for all extra work
to the contractors, and now the COM
mittee will have the errors corrected,
and then the new Lutheran Church
will be as strong and substantial as it
is neat and attractive. D. W. Pierce
& Son, OF Goldendals, Washington,
have received the contract for placing
the furniture, and they have already
delivered the altar pulpit reading

the furniture is really beautiful, and
the pews will, no doubt, be of the same

probably be resdy for dedication in

A Good Suggestion.



Ny attention being called to the
plan of action for a union of parties
against the gold standard, let me make
suggestion through your columns.
To follow the plan as discussed
throughout the state, i. e., "to have
populist, silver republican and demo-
cratic conventions on the same day;
have committee of three elected from
each convention to meet and apportion
the offices fairly between the three
parties and report such apportionnent
to their respective conventions. :"
Then each convention to. declare
nominations for their portion of the
ticket in order and place all candidates
in nomination, but not vote for them,
then the three conventions unite and
by ballot OF the entire body select from
those nominated, The ticket resulting
would then be one backed by the three
parties. Each nomination would be q
whole number and not third of q
nomination.
Each convention to choose its own
set of state delegates and tho delega-
tions from Sherman and Wasco to
meet at Portland and name the legis-
lative ticket. AS in this suggested
plan no man could be nominated out
side of the party entitled to the places,
a strong ticket would surely result
and it would be one wherein all parties
are directly interested. Yours for
union. M. J. ANDERSON.

A Coed Price for Beef.

Saturday evening 1873 beef cattle be-
longing to DR.. V. Gesner, of Prineville,
arrived at the stockyards here in
charge of Minor Lewis. 1t required
IA days to bring the cattle from Prime.
vile, and they arrived here in fine
condition. They had been fed all win
tor on Mr.. Lewis farm near Prineville,
hence were all prime beef, and were
readily sold to Charles Butler, of Port
Townsend, at cents pound on foot.
This is the best sale yet reported here
this winter, but it will likely be the
ruling price from now until range beef
is ready for market.

supper was the right thing in the
right place.
The meeLing was again called to
order, and Adjutant-General Morse
called for the good old national air
"America," and with Mrs. J. M.
Patterson at the piano, the building
fairly trembled with the enthusiasm
from the voices that entered so heartily
in the singing of this soul inspiring
song. This was followed by Adjutant-
General Morse who made remarks on
the work, membership. etc., Of the G.
A. R., and concluded by paying many
compliments to The Dalles and the
hospitable people he had met here.

OREGON FOREST RESERVE.
Hon. John Mimic Declares Part of the Re-
serve should be Opened to Settle

Hon. John Minto.o Marien county,
delivered the third lecture in the agri-
cultural college course Wednesday
evening. His subject was "Forest Re-
serves"
He apologized for the fact,that his
address was controversial in character,
Offering in palliation the fact that
rights of the people are trodden under
foot by the i'll advised establishment
of the reserves. He said he thought
that il forest reserves we're to be set
apart at all it should be done by state
governments, because ths latter are
more familiar with the surroundings
and needs Of communities contiguous
to the reserves.
"There are now in Oregon" he said,
"16, 900, 900 acres of timber. of which
100000 are handy to settlements,
available for use as firewood and build
ing purposes, while 100000 are in
the mountains. The estimated an
nual growth, board measure, is 2,000.-
000. 900 feet and the annual consump-
tion 54O,OOO.OOO. At $8 per 1000 feet
the annual decay is worth S17 1000, 900.
This sum ought not to be locked up in
forest reserve, keeping enterprise
from opening up and utilizing these
forests. The value of the timber
locked up in the reserves is equivalent
to so consecutive wheat crops in
Oregon"
The forestry committee, by whose
influence the reserves were set apart,
proposed, he said to educate body of
trained foresters to guard the reserves
against the encroachments of settlers,
keeping, meanwhile, government
troops on duty as guards. He likened
rhe proposition to the situation in
Germany, where 5000 foresters are
maintained to guard German timber
lands, and he asserted an .unwillingness
to help maintain this additional army of
government employees. He combatted
The ide of those who favor the forest
reserves, that timber in the mountains |
preserved the water courses. |

He's n DaISy.

Several days ago some of the shari.
table societies of the city were inform.
ed that there were two unfortunate
women on the hill living together who
were in destitute circumstances. The
women and their children were
promptly supplied with tho necessities
of life, and one of them being sick the
delicacies required for her to eat were
supplied. A few evenings later the
husband of the sick woman, a piece of
humanity by the name of Brown came
home (he had been at Hood River) and
proceeded TO create famine in the cup
board, by devouring everything nice
that he could find. Next morning the
Elk's charity committee was notified
of his conduct, and they informed him
that his presence would not be needed
about the premises. Brown has made
himself scarce since, and will probably
not be of any more annoyance. If he
is the authorities will take him in
charge.

ATTEMPTED JAN DEL1vEay.
A Well Laid Plan Nipped in the Bud by
Deputies Kel,y ana Fitzgerald.


On Tuesday Deputy Sheriff Kelly
was busily engaged at his desk in the
sheriff's Office, hardly having time to
devote any attention to the Jail.
Sheriff Driver being away, hence all
the duties OF the Office devolved upon
Mr.. Kelly, when he observed one Of
the prisoners was unusually jovial,
marching up and down the aisle of
the Jail corodor, singing loudly. At
first the singing rather annoyed Mr..
Kelly, and as he worked on the books,
began to surmise something was going
on inside the jail, as none of the other
three prisoners were in sight or ap.
peared to be making any noise. Con-
sequently he called Jailor Fitzgerald
and requested him to go inside the Jail
and see what was going On. When
Mr.. Fitzgerald entered the Jail the
four prisoners gathered around him
and insisted upon entertaining him by
showing specimens of drawing; but
MIR. Fitzgerald is too well experienced
in handling prisoners to heed their
sociabiiity, and began making an iu-
spection OF the interior of the corridor.
been removed from the wall next to
the lavatory, and that it was concealed
by placing the dining table near
the wall so as to cover the hole
from which it was taken. The prison.
ers were ordered into the cells where
they are confined of nights, and it will
be some time before they are given
the customary freedom of the Jail dur
ing the day time.
The Jail is so constructed that It
would have been impossible for the
prisoners to haye worked their way
out unless they were supplied with
good tools, as through the center of
each wall is plute of chilled steel,
that would resist ordinary force, and
both inside and out there is tier of
brick resting against the plase. But
had not the vigilance of Mr.. Kelly dis
covered their scheme, the prisoners
would soon have done considerable
damage to the Jail, for when one brick
was removed others would haye been
easily taken down Messrs. Kelly and
Fitzgerald certainly deserve credit in
checking the would-be jail breakers
before more damage was done.
Wasco county has indeed been for
tunate in the past with regard to
securely keeping its prisoners, since
none have escaped since the new Jail
was built, and since Mr.. Fitzgerald
has held the position of jailor, and his
careful guarding of the premises both
day and night has prevented prisoners
from attempting to damage the build
ing. During the day he is constantly
within call of the court house and at
night he sleeps in room adjoining
the Jail, consequently prisoners can do
but little devilment without being de-
tected. Were it not for his constant
vigilance it is likely the county would
frequently be called upon to repair
damages done the Jail by prisoners.
