One of the very best ways of advertis-
ing city or country is by means of the
special editions gotten out by the various
newspapers. The latest one to visit US
is that of the Walla Walla Statesman,
which has a style peculiarly it's own,
and deserving of especial credit from
the fact that the entire publication is
the work of the Statesman Office. It is
splendid advertisement for that city,
and covers every field necessary to that
end.
Watch your chance. for it isn't often
that a man has the good luck to find in
the vest pocket of new suit of clothes

legged, for with every suit costing SO
and over, you will Ibe presented with a
good open-faceH silver watch, war
ranted for year. 1t behooyes you to
call at their Elothing department and
inquire into the matter.
Last Saturday morning as The Dalles
stage was leaving the stable, one of the
wheel horses fell and soaring the others
they proceeded up the street in lively
manner. The driver got ratified and
threw down the lines and jumped off
the stage. We suppose to catch the
leaders. After dragging the horse about
block, they were caught by some
passer by. The horse that had fallen
was severely hurt aud another one had
to be put into his place.-Prineville Re

day representing the Editorial Sou

gotten up description of the various
cities of the state, and forwarded to
every member of the National Editorial
Association, which will visit our state in
July. This will give them an idea of
the different places slong their route,
and just what to expect as they make

represented by page or two regarding
our city and the vicinity, with some cuts
of the scenery hereabouts.
Much concern has been felt by the
relatives and friends of John Cooper
since the dispatches received yesterday
that E. D. Cooper had been injured in
the conflict Sunday. It was thought by
some to be one of the two nephews of D.
j. Cooper who are among the volunteers,
but their initials were w and P. j. P.
Lucas, of the land Office, however,
has an explanation which it seems to
US is a very plausible one. He says
that among the volunteers from Dallas
was Emmett Cosper, who was mem
Der of Company NJ. and that while the
name of the company and the initials
are right, Cosper has been taken for
Cooper, and Dallas for The DalIes.

Yesterday Mr.. E. P. Fitz Gerald
received a letter from his son, Lieut.. C.
G. zFitz Gerald, now on duty near
Havana, and with it number of very
interesting pictures taken from the time
he boarded the transport en- route to the
scene of conflict up till the present time.
Among them are photographs of many
of HaYana's noted buildings and scenes
of historical interest. Strange as it may
seem, Lieut.. Fritz Gerald tells his father
8 that one day while in the vicinity OF
8 'sIntrenchment No. g." near Havana
he came across a salmon can containing
the brand of Seufert Bros cannery. The
question now is, would it not be we'll to
