A DIFFICULT uNDERrAkINe.
Tho JOB of Moving the Regulator From
Her Position on the Rocks Proves
More DimcuIt Than was at
First Expected.

Up TO last night the force employed in
raising the Regulator had met with lit
tie success. The machinery and every
thing in fact but the boiler has been
removed, still the craft holds obstinate
ly to the rocks.
What makes it all the more difficult is
the fact that a strong current strikes
the side of the boat and drives it further
on the rocks. Various schemes have
already been tried to float the vessel but
as yet mono have proven the least bit
successful, and the only thing to be
done now is to leave the vessel where it
is until the water goes down, and then
after putting its hull in good shape
launch it.
Fears were entertained that the boat
would be broken to pieces if left long in
its present position, such, however, does
not seem to be the case, and it is ex-
pected that but slight damage will be
done in this way.
If everything else fails the upper part
of the boat and all the machinery can
be saved and replaced on new hull so
that in any case the loss will not be as
serious as it could be under different
circumstances.

for the new Masonic building in Con-
don. The present work is of a prelimin-
arY character, being done to determine
the depth it will be necessary to sink
the foundation in order to find solid
ground. That point being settled, bids
will be called for the stone work. The
contract tor the carpenter work has al
! ready been let to Jas. II. Snyder, of Ar
lington, for 1897. The lots are being
graded this week, and active work will
begin in the near future.
Every train and boat brings large
number of laborers from the willamette
valley who are seeking work in the
wheat fields of Eastern Oregon. A short
time ago a number of men who came
across the mountains from Corvallis to
seek for work, returned home being
unable to find job. They were in the
John Day country, where they went ex-
pecting high wages, long jobs and plenty
OF work to do. They found on every
road covered wagons carrying people
from all parts of the country, even Cali
fornia, all hunting work.
We are informed by superintendent
| Gilbert that the annual teachers insti-
tute for Wasco county will be held in
this city on September 9TH, 8th and 9Th.
Everything goes to indicate that the in
stitute will be one of the best and larg-
est attended that has ever been held, as
almost one hundred teachers have sig
ni6ed their intention to attend. The
directors have generously offered the
use of the new school building, and at
the conclusion the ceremony of dedicat-
ing the building will be held. In a
short time the programs will be issued
and mailed to the different teachers.
| Last night worktrain of the o. R. &
N, a number of outftting cars and a
large crew of men left this city for the
vicinity of Blalocks where they will be-
gin operations, ballasting and graveling
the track and laying new rails heavier
and better suited for the road. There is
rumor current also that new bridge
will be built across Five mile creek at
Seufert's, as the one there at present is
getting old and the company are making
every effort to put their. entire line in
the best of shape. Their goodintentions
are plainly demonstrated by\the tre-
mendous work they are having done be-
tween this place and Portland, especially
in the vicinity of Viento.

WARNING BY A SOUTHERN
NEGRO.

In an address at the Colored Peo-
pies Fair, Raleigh, n. c., on Friday,
John Williamson, colored, denounced
the New York negroes who held meet
ings urging the Southern negroes to
make demands which they dare not
make in New York. He said the Gov
ernor of Illinois was the worst enemy
to the industrious negro in the coun-
try and that in Illinois and other
Northern States the negro mason and
carpenter were not allowed to work at
their trades. Williamson stated that
the Southern white man was the best
friend the negro had, and urged his
hearers not 10 listen "to the sorry me-
groes who do not own a foot of land
in New York, but who want to pre-
cipitate us into trouble he.e where we
own homes and are getting on we'll"
