Indian have vanished and steamboats,
have taken their place. At the en-
trance to the Gorge one catches
first glimpse of the titanic forms that
border on each side of the river.
1t is also apparent why the Cas-
cade Mountains are so named. Down
the rocky sides of the huge balastic
projections th.t stand up sheer from
the stream are numerous beautiful
little falls. They pour from every
crevice, often from the mountain tops
and in one place at least twelve Of
these cascades with their foaming
spray can be seen glistening like snow
wreaths. Some send down tiny
threads Of foam, others are beauties
hidden in evergreen nooSs, and still
others spread over broad ledges like
wells. The most beautiful of these is
Multnomah Falls, 500 feet high,
cascade in two groups, long, filmy and
falling with wonderful grace and gen.
tleness. Other noted fails are Bridal
Veil, Latourelle, Horse Tail and One
Onta.
Cape Horn is the most prominent
projection on the Columbia banks. It
consists OF pillars Of 500 to 1900 It.

OF lava, would in the process of time,
be so eaten away that the water
would run through and thus make a
natural bridge. Nearby this are the
queer submerged trees that were in
the water when Lewis and Clark saw
the stream. They are evidently sub
merged forests, stand in their natural
position and are twenty to thirty-tive
feet high. They are supposed to be
caused by landslides from the noun
tains damming the river.
That some unheaval took place is
evidenced by the Cascades. which are
now passed by means of a lock. This
stretch of river has been called Rob-
bers Roost because in early times the
Indians annoyed every exploring par
ty that tried to pass. From the Cas-
cades to the Great or Cello Falls the
scenery is of superlative degree, for
the river has eaten its way by means
of rapids, falls. whirlpools, through
the blacklist Of basalt. The Great
Falls are drop of forty feet through
the dark, sombre looking lava and
the water falls as if for thousand
miles above it had been nerving it.

Prophecy Being Fulfilled.

In June, 1873, according to the
Philadelphia North American, Ed
ward ]. Ryan, chief Justice of the su-
rreme court of Wisconsin, gave this
prophetic warning to the graduating
class of the University of Wisconsin:
There is looming up a new and
dark power. can not dwell upon
the signs and shocking omens OF Its
advent The accumulation Of indi-
vidual wealth seems to be greater
than it ever has been since the down.
fall of the Roman empire. The en-
terprises of the country are aggre-
eating vast corporate combinations
Of unexampled capital, boldly march
ing, not for econmic conquests only,
but for political power. We see
their colors. we hear their trumpets,
we distinguish the sound Of prepara-
tion in their camps.
For the first time in our politics,
money is taking the field as an Or
ganized power. 1t is unscrupulous,
arrogant and overbearing. Already
here at home, one great corporation
HIS trifled with the soveri5n power
and insulted the state. There is
grave fear that it and its great rival
have cnnfederated to make partition
of the state and share it as spoils.
"Weulth has it's rights. Indus
trious wealth has its honors. This it
is the duty Of the law to assert and
protect, though wealth has great
power of self-protection and influence
beyond the limits Of integrity. But
money as 4 political influence is es-
Scntially corrupt; it is ono OF the
rost dangerous to free institutions:
BY far the most dangerous to the
free and Just administration of the
Law. Ii is entitled to fear if not to
respect.
THE question will arise, and arise
in your day. though perhaps not fully
in mirc: Which shall rule. wealth or
man; which shall lead, money or iE-
tellect; who shall fill public station,
educated and patriotic frecmen or the
feudal serfs Of corporate capital?'
The prophecy Of Judge Ryan is
being rapidly fulfilled almost to the
letter. He certainly knew what he
was talking about when he made it..
1t took the people long time to
catch on, but We believe they have |
their eyes open at last, and il begins
to look as if the thieving trusts will |
be called to account.

Disappointment is superb. In the dis
tarce are the government jetties, and
the lightship far out to sea, while
the waters tumble over the bar at
the mouth in a series Of eddies and
whirlpools.
Fort Columbia, at the rivers
mouth, is equipped with the newest
of heavy marine ordnance and short
distance away is Fort Clatsop where
Lewis and Clark camped. Whey they
left, feeling the uncertainty of re-
turning East alive, they left notices
with the Indians and in various places
describing their. Journey and what
they had seen. 1t is curious fact
that one of these In after years reach
ed Philadelphia by way Of China. At
this end, too, the river Ia not alone
associated with Lewis and Clark. At
old Fort Voncouver, Grant, Sheridan
and other army officers we're station
ed. Grant was there ip 1852 and
Sheridan commanded the fort In
1855 and took part in two Indian up
risings.
Just as the Columbia near Its
mouth Is associated with history, ev-
cry ONT agrees that the scenery Of the
Upper Columbia cannot be duplicated
even by the palisades Of che Hudson
Or Mississippi. A succession Of sur
prises continues for one hundred and
seventy-five miles to the Dalles. 1t is
beyond this that most of the improve
ments will be made and that are con-
sidered necessary, for, Just as this
great river in 1905 was waterway

Further on Is Castle Rock, and i'm
mediately following is the odd Bridge
of the Gods. From abutmeE on the
mountain sides one can understand
that the Indians may have some foun-
dation for their story that there nuce
existed a natural bridge whic..
spanned the river. The Indians say
they were able to cross the stream
dryshod and account for the disap-
pearance of the bridge in various
ways. One legend tells that dusky
maiden on the Oregon side was stolen
by her enemies on the other side of
the river. When her friends pursued,
the Indian tried to escape across the
bridge and in revenge the gods let
the bridge fall. This is but one Of
several fancful tales. Scientists think
that there may have been an uplift
across the stream, which if composed

Breaks the Record,

The st. Matthews correspondent
o. The State says: Several days ago
one Bill Plush, a negro, broke the
man-sho oting record by winging five
other negroes at one time at hot
supper. One Charles Staley, a negro
living on the opposite side of the
county, out-distanced Plush the other
day in his race for the pennant for
the number of men shot at one time.
Staley went out on the warpath and
succeeded in pumping lead into II
of his brethren before his ammuni-
ton gave out. So far as can be as
certained this is record-breaker."
Staley must have been loaded up on
mean booze or cocaine.

An intresting phase Of the Colum-
bia River is the old Indian burial
grounds. Many of these were situ-
ated on islanGs near the Great Falls
and years ago the graves contained
many pieces of pottery and Indian Or
naments. Another curious Indian
cemetery existed for years on the
bank of the river. Time and progress
of civilization have changed this old
spot, but early explorers found vaults
over the doors of which were painted
1olored totems in the forms of ami
mails. Many kettles, baskets and
medicine bags have been taken from
.hese graves and remains of skulls
show that this tribe had some method
If nattening the skull similar to that
employed by the Cliff dwellers.
A trip can be taken up the navi-
gable Upper Columbia and back by
boat in one day, Or the tourney can
be made both by boat and rail. Eth
er way one enjoys unconventional
nature, holding forth in wild, riotous
Ind stormy moods. No softenins
hand has changed the savage cliffs,
hangeful waters, dangerous falls
and dainty cataracts.
The tremendous intensity of this
liver looks as if it might last forever
o matter how much commerce may
ass ever its waters. The bar at its
.outh was long ago robbed Of its
errors and the lighthouses throw
heir CLEANS across this stretch
:hich once was considered so dam
gcrous.
The salmon fishers with their nets
and fish wheels now ply their trade
along the banks near which Lewis
