IXiriug the past few months Dalles city has been the temporary abiding place of numerous people from the eastern states and now, that the time draws near when they are to leave us for their own homes, many pleasant associations formed during their stay must be broken. In conversation with one of these, who is quite prominently connected on the Atlantic side, he said "that he came here expecting to find strangers, but that in no instance has it appeared to him that he has been amongfitrangers He has become specially interested in the beauty of our surrounding ecenery, our waterfalls, mountains, cultivated and wild flowers, the snpecior quality of our fruif, and above all our incomparably genial climate, our delightful drives, and bur hospitable, intelligent and companionable Yes, said he, "I know I shall often find my memory glancing back upon pleasant recollections of this visit to The The Chkoxiclk ventures to add that good people of this city will also remember these visitors.

Carrie Burnham, in a note to the Re cord, says the Rxlston brothers of Montana, wbo bought 350 or 400 head of stock from Blurock Peters, crossed their stock" on the Arlington ferry and drove them to Wailula Junction to ship over the N. as they said the price for shipping from Arlington to Wailula Junction would be nearly one-third as much i as from Wailula to" Helena, Montana, onthe 2s.

and this is the reason why people take stock to different points and other roads for shipment. About stock from the Washington side of the Columbia, Burnham sixe of Bickleton was at the ferry one day laet. week, and we gave him rates, as be intended to ship 'three or four carloads' of horses but after consulting the V. agent at this place; he said he could do better on the P. railroad, and took the horses to Prosser for shipment." So it would seem, from this, that even a ferry boat isn't in it, alongside the "system." J.

The Klickitat Leader the 2od introduces a letter on the subject of the reported withdrawal of The Dalle9, Port, land and Astoria Navigation Company as follows "It is with.extreme pleasure that we can announce the fact that the peoples' company is still bnjthe war path. The rumor that found so much credence along the river that the company had sold out to the Union Pacific is most emphatically denied by the 'company, and in answer, to a letter sent from this office, the following communication will be read with vast interest Dear Sib. Your favor irt the 10th re ceived, and in reply would say that there is ho truth whatever in the report that I this company has sold out' to the Union Pacific railway, neither have they made any kind of compromise with them. Our tie up is solely -on circumstances which could not have been avoid ed by the company this season, as onljrj actum experience coma aemonstratc the present condition of fullv trust to resume operation's -by the proximo and that we will be fully -prepared in tbe- future to have -our lower boat in such shape tbat with better landing facilities at the cascades a tie up in any atage of water will be. We have kept our boat running sem'i-weekjy between The Dalles -and Cascade locks to accomodate the people on the Washington side of the river, and although Regretting that we could not give a daily service trust this has been appreciated, as it is the best we could do.

-We would thank you to express our. thanks to the people afontr the river1-. for their generous patronage, and --assure them that the Regulator company have by no means given up the tight, i Lewder "We hope this will Satisfy our correspondent, as well as other people, who were afraid they were going to be subject to the exorbitant and. exacting freight rates of tbe Union Pacific railroad- Remember that the people's boat is on the river to stay. When the Regulator was tied up something like 1,000 tons of freight "was in sight, and the indications pointed to more business than possibly could be managed.

The captain of the Dalles City was satisfied, that the boat could not safely make the landing at the and re-, ported accordingly, so "the rqompaBy rather than take the', risk of losing the boat, tied her up. As soon as it is prac-i ticable the boats will be running again, and let the farmers of Klickitat this fall see that their wheat is shipped by the peoples' boat, thus giving their support to a company which manfully started to oppose a'grinding monopoly," A rare opportunity for the. ladies is now afforded by Mrs. Philips, who is offering millinery at one third less, as she has decided to retire from the busings iec advertisement. 6.18dtf A plain gold sleeve button marked R.

zb wonderful how the theories of our past lives comes back to us now as the realities of the present. Daniel Webster constantly made notes of current ideas, and when asked how long it was before he used them, replied sometimes twenty years, sometimes longer. When I was a boy, in Shelby county, 1 went one' day to Mr, John Cooper's shoemaker's shop to be measured for a pair of shoes, ae the custom of the eonntry then was. He and his little son Robert lived alone in th. woods in a house of one room, which was dwelling and shoe shop.

Soon Bob's uncle, Gideon Kaylor, about his age, came in, and Bob joyfully exclaimed, "Come, Uncle Gid, we've got some potatoes, and there is plenty of salt." It seemed strange to me. to see how eagerly they roasted and ate the'potatoes and how happy they were. Theylived happily, and yet this was all their liv-'. ing. I have repeated this story frequently daring my prosperous days as a great uever dreaming that it would become my own reality, as it now is, and am happy too.

A German woman who could not speak a-'word of English came into my. office one day with one of my German circulars in her- hand, which Mr. Coop had given her" in' Saxony. I sent her out into the country with a German merchant to look at lands, and that day she bought a farm. The next day I made: the deeds, and she became the owner, and moved in.

A neighbor soon afterward told me that it cost that lady nothing to live. He says she puts a tin. cup Of on the stove and a tin cup of corxuneal mush, and that i all her living, but she is getting rich. I thought that very strange, too, -never thinking that I should live so but do- just that thing now, having: remembered hearing how she lived. When 1 1 lest all my money and yet must live, I rented a room 14 by IS feet, with $5 per month not a very good room and not very, well but comfortable and respectable, and there are plenty of them.

at that price. I bought an outfit as follows: An iron handy lamp, 75 cents; three seamless pint tin cups, 15 cents; one do', quart, IS cents; one half gallon tin cup, with, cover, 10 cents; three bowls. 15 cents; cup and cents; gallon glass oil can, 35 cents; oil, 15 cents; spoon, 10 cents; total outfit, Then I bought one month's provisions as follows: Half bushel potatoes, 85 cents; ten 20 cents; three pounds Graham flour, 15 cents: one pound ground coffee, 25 cents; eight pounds granulated sugar, 38 cents; one pound lard, 10 cents: coarse salt. 5 cents: total for the month, $1.46. I am good, hearty eater, and am full fed and live well, and am thankful for it, but i cannot eat all of my month's provision.

There is always a considerable amount over every month, and I live well too. In theinbrning 1 light my handy lamp, fill my -seamless pint tin cup with water, put a teaspoonful of ground coffee into it, put it over the lamp; and turn -another tin cup. bottom upward, over it for a In ten minutes there is a pint cup of good, hot coffee. While the coffee is boiling I put little water "into the half gallon cup, not more than one-eighth full, and then fill, the quart tin cup about one-fourth full of add, a little salt, then set tins cup into the half gallon enp, and fill up tho quart cup' full of "Water and stir Tip the meal well. Jam in the handle of the quart cup so that it will go into the larger cup.

soon as the coffee comes off set the mush, on the-lamp. Stir it occasionally, and when it thickens and fills up the cup take it off. I buy a loaf of bread for four "cents for S.onday, and melt a little lard and salt for gravy, and I live well and have plenty to eat. Many others in this city, gaunt and half starved, can live well- in this way. John Howard in Washington Jaeobseii i 1 1 i rleryj THE DALLES Oft --T---I 43fl.
