Poor Potatoes Flood the Market.

The California market is overstocked
with low grade potatoes. The supply
of choice potatoes is small. Salinas
Burbanks are quoted at Sl.l5 to 81 40
per hundred pounds and Oregon Bur
banks at 70 cents to 81 per hundred
pounds. Because Oregon growers do
not sell potatoes more freely, some of
the Portland buyers have been telling
ridiculous yarns about importing pOta-
toes from Dakota. They say they can
get them there at 80 to 40 cents per 100
pounds and can move them from Dako-
ia to Oregon for 30 cents per 100 pounds.
We do not know if there is such a thing
as a rate of 80 cents per 100 pounds on
potatoes from Dakota to Portland but
we do know that the only safe way of
transporting potatoes from Dakota to
Portland in the winter time is in re-
frigerator car with stove in it and the
cost of moving them in this way is more
than the potatoes are selling for now in
Portland. Moreover the common type
of potatoes grown in the Dakotas has a
colored skin, and for some reason people
on the Pacific coast discriminate against
such potatoes. The worst feature about
the potato market in Portland this year
is the exceedingly poor quality of the
greater part of the potatoes which are
sold at retail in the city. Their quality
raises the suspicion that they are the
poorest grade of California River Bur-
banks which sell in California for 40
cents per 100 pounds.-Royal North

not help it; but before we found the
cattle we saw the smoke from Joslyn's
house and barn and hurried home as
fast as our feet could carry us. We
found the cavalry had arrived, and theI
coming was the signal for the burning
The valorous lieutenant marshaled his
forces on the sand bar, and hailing the
steamer Wasco on her way to The
Dalles, started for the seat Of war. Ny
two brothers and the two Bensons had
gone with the troops, also Amos Under
wood, who was on his way to the
Cascades, was one of the party. How
the Indians did yell! The cliffs were
alive with them, and their war whoops
echoed and re-echoed across the river,
The valiant lieutenant, ere he reached
the landing, suddenly remembered that
he had orders not to molest the Indians
in Washington, but merely to protect
he settlers and their property at Hood
River, and ordered the boat to land him
again on the Oregon shore. Discretion
in this case was certainly the better
part of valor, for it undoubtedly saved
him his seal p and that OF every member
Of his party that was to have landed
on the hostile shore.
HOsTILEs ATTACK FRIENDLIES' CAMP.
"That night, by some means, a band
Of hostiles crossed the river and attacked
the camp of friendly Klicktats near
where the section house now stands,
and after sharp exchange of shots, in
which one of the invaders was seriously
wounded, the friendlies left their camp
and came trooplng up to the house.
Soon after the hostiles came across

silent water, we heard the Indian
guards signaling along the shore from
one to another until far up and down
We had been discovered, and in less
time than it takes to read it, every
camp had been appraised of our flight,
"About noon the next day, when near
klickitat river, we met both little
steamers, Mary and Wasco, fairly blue
with soldiers, and loaded to the guards
with cavalry and munitions of war, on
their way to the relief of the Cascades.
They stopped as they came to us,
inquiring for news. We gave them
what we had heard from the courier
the night before, and they hurried on.
How their polished rifles and bayonets
cleaned and shimmered in that noon
day sun! and their clanking sabers
made sweet music to our care-worn ears,
How fierce and brave and good they
looked! Oh would they be in time?
About O'Clock we reached The Dalles,
where almost the entire population
turned ont to meet us, inquiring for the
news. And there our journey ended" "
Returning to the scene of destruction,
Mr.. Joslyn built for himself and wife
another home, and they resumed their
residence as the sole white settlers Of
that region.
Although never residing in The Dalles
for more than a few months continu-
ously, Mr.. Joslyn was identified with
the interests of that city, and on Sep
tember II, 1859, assisted in the estab-
lishment of the First Congregational
church of The Dalles, Rev. and Mrs.
W. A. Tenney, f. s. Benefited, William
B. StiIlwell, Mr.. and Mrs. z. Donnell,
Mr., and Mrs. Joslyn being the charter
members of that society. He was also
one of the incorporators OF the Wasco
Woolen mills, in this city, besides rep
resenting Skamania county for more
than one term in the Washington Terri
tOrial Assembly in the SOS.
In 1875, Mr.. Joslyn sold his White
Salmon home and removed to Colorado
Springs, where he has resided until the
past two years, and where Mrs. Joslyn
died, For the past two years he has
resided at Santa Barbara. His second
wife, formerly Miss Anna Tuck, at one
time resident of The Dalles, survives
him.

Rnmor of sim Another Steamer.

With the advent of spring we are
promised that the fastest sternwheeler
in the world will be placed on the river
between The Dalles and Portland 1t is
the Telegraph, owned by Captain w. b.
Scott, formerly one Of the principal
stockholders of the White Collar line.
He will probably make the round trip
between Portland and The Dalles one day
and between Portland and Astoria the
next. There has never been a steamer
which has completed the round trip on
either one Of these routes in a day, but
the captain is confident the Telegraph
can do it. By alternating the run he
believes he will get all the traffic that
can be handled.
The telegraph will be operated as a
passenger boat exclusively No stops
will be made at the way landings. Dur
ing the past year she has been plying
between Seattle and Port Grford, and
averaged II miles an hour for every day
she was In commission. At times she
made more than 20 miles an hour.

Novel Method for Bathing the Kid

NONel MeInOu 1Of BaJnlng tne hlu.
Charles f. Sawyer, alias Tom, the
handy man for George Cornwall, who
was born in the land OF the Shamrock
not so many years ago, and who prints
a magazine for lumber men, the Coium-
bia Timberman, drifted into Hood River
Sunday night in quest of material to
make the Timberman of interest to the
sawmill men in other parts OF the
Northwest.
Tom stayed over until the next after
noon, leaving then for Bridal Veil. Tom
always finds a welcome at the print
shops, where his inimitable stories keep
the force in humor until hecOmesl again.
This time Tom had supply Of new and
original stories, and one in particular
that should go into print.
As Mr.. Sawyer was returning on foot
up the track from Menominee, he was
passing the Indian cabins in the north
part of the city, when out in front of
one Of them he saw young buck three
or four wears aid. The lad was dressed
in his copper buckskin, as God had
made him, and although the tempera-
ture was lowering near the freezing
point, the Indian mother had pail OF
water beside her and was diligently
applying the liquid as the kid jumped
and yelled at each dash Of cold water.
Tom was sorry for the young Ameri-
can, but was glad his mother didn't try
that plan of bathing on him.

Lived One Time at Forest Grove.

DAILY papers yesterday contained an
account of the death at Santa Barbara,
Cali, of Erastus S. Joslyn, whom old
residents of Forest Grove remember as
living in this region long ago. During
the Indian troubles along in the fifties
he was driven from his home at White
Salmon, came here and farmed the A. T.
Smith place for several years. He then
returned to White Salmon, where he
lived many years, finally moving to
Colorado, where he was a neighbor OF
the Boldrlck's before they left the state.
Later he moved to Santa Barbara
where he died. Former acquaintances
remember him for his hospitality and

"OId Sox.'

The following story, which is
going the rounds, contains a
good deal of wisdom: A few
weeks ago a young man bought a
pair Of socks containing a note
saying the writer was an employee
of Kenosha, Wis, knitting works
and wanted a good husband.
She gave her name and request
ed the buyer, if unmarried, to
write with a view to matrimony.
The young man who found the
note considered the matter in all
it's phases and then decided to
write to the girl. Awaiting with
anxiety, he was at last rewarded
with a curt note, stating that
the girl was now a mother of two
children and had been married
four years and the letter had
been written ever so long ago.
It was a "sock-dolager," and
the young man hunted for a
solution. He found it. The
merchant of whom he bought the
socks doesn't advertise.
