Staley, who died at Wamic, May 12th was a native of Virginia, and was sixty four years old last April. He was ban d without the intervention ol the Christian clergy. It was his request to havs a secular funeral, and bis friend, Mr. S. B. Driver, with whom he had lived for the past eight years, tally complied with his request. Tbe following obituary was read by L D. Driver: My friends, an honorable heart has ceased to beat; a doer of generous deeds has reached the silent baven that all the dead have reached, and where the voyage of life must end. And we, his friends, who even now are hastening after him, have met to do tbe last acts that man may do for' man. To tell hit virtues and to lay with tenderness and of of tears his ashes in the sacred place of peace and rest. In tbe multitude of blind followers in tbe monotony of subservience, nothing is more inspiring tbau a free and independent man-- one who gives and asks reasons, one who demands free.lom and gives what he de- mands; one who refuses to be a slave or a master. Such a man was Mi. Staley, to whom we are paying the tribute of love aod respect. He was an honest man. He gave the rights he claimed. ' This was the foundation on wbicb be built to think for himself. Tnis was, to him, not only a privilege, not only a right, but a duty and a joy. By the grave of man stands the angel of silence. A heart breaks and man dies; a leaf falls in the forest a babe is born, and the great world sweeps on. No one can tell which is tbe better life with its gleams and joys, its shadows, its to wreaths, its thorns and crowns; or deatb with its peace, its rest, its cool and pleasant brow that bath within no memory, no fear grief or pain. Some may censure the last act of this noble man, but I do not. AU who knew him I think will say with me "He was jataifiable. He sought and found that rest which was so ruthlessly denied by a cruel providence." Farewell dear friend. The world is better for your life. The world is braver for your death. Farewell, we loved you living, and we love you now.

Moffet. He was arraigned before Justice McDevitt this morning, aod waiviug examination, wa held to answer to the grand j ry niid- - r $200 bonds. Io de fault uf bonds, Wager was committed to a county jail." WorWa Pair People Will Have It, Tbe pablio demand through service wbeo traveling it is to change cars.

Parrish, the proprietor of Tbe Dalles and Prineville stago lioe, arrived in the city to day. Long freight trains leave the city east and west these days, and double-header- s are fre- quently seen at the depot. Mr J.

The Dalles w 11 properly commemorate Decoration Day, next Tuesday, aud the G A. R. post are preparing a programme of exercises on the occasion. Mrs. Nellie St. John, who has been visit ing her mother, Mrs. R. Lusher.in this city, for seyeral weeks, returned to ber home at Tacoma Thursday eveniog. Mr. W. A Henricks, of Dufur, paid us a visit this morning, aud, liko the rest of the farmers iu that vicinity, is very happy o er the favorableness of the season. Mrs. G. 11 Halvor brought In town this morning some potatoes of this years crop. Ibey are tully developed' and sneak well for the capability of our soil. Beck, tbe-ma- n who was arrested iu Kan sas for larceny of railroad tickets in this city some time ago, arrived from Denver, Colo, on the afternoon tiaiu today, in charge of an officer. Notice of location of water right was filed to day with Clerk Crossen by H. Mc- Coy and Geo. VV. Mc( ky for 120.000 inches of water by miners measurement from Clear creek and its feudeis. Uol. James Folton, of Fultnnville, Sher- man county, was taken auk yesterday, and medical aid was summoned Irom th.a city. Hs is an old pioneer of this region, aud hia many friends will hope for hia speedy re- covery. The and entertainment social given by the Good Templars at Fraternity hall last evening was a success in every par- ticular. A very interesting programme was rehearsed, aud the refreshments were fully enjoyed. VV. R. Wiriaos tiled notice of water right this morning with the county olerk for all tbe water in tbe stream known aa Dead Point for irrigation, water power, traospor tatino, wagon road, fishery aod summer re-- ? sort purposes. Iu conversation y witb a sheep man in the vicinity of Kockland, Wash., he in formed us that be sheared an average of nine pounds a fleece from 1300 sheep this season. This is a good yield for suoli a number of sheep. Tbe Miller property on the east bank of the Deschutes river, in Sherman county, was told by the sheriff yesterday, aod tbe price bid was $3506. This afternoon, the property on the west bank ot tbe river, in Wasco county, was sold for $585. Mr. Ralph O Bates, who escaped from Andersonville prison, will deliver two lec- tures at the M. E. church Tuesday and Wednesday evenings for the benefit of the Epwortb league. His sufferings were terri- ble in the extreme, and these constituting his lectures mane them of thrilling interest. Mr Patrick Bolton, of the Tvgh ridge, gave us a pleasant call and be was perfectly satiflied with the prospects of the grain harvest. He says this warm weather will stop the work of the worms, and tbe e have been doing considerable damage here-tefo- re. The boys of Goldendale are not much better than those of Tbe Dalles, and tbe Sentinel this week has an item about one 15 years old being bound over for the crime burglary. Such acts are opt indicative greatness or goodness in tbe rising gen- eration. From present indications the berry sea- son will be short, says the Hood River Glacier, and it will require extra exertion to .ave tbem. Tbe Indian women are ex- pert berry pickers, and every one coming here will fiud steady employment through this season. , Mr. C. M. Grimes, of Huntington, baa been in this vicinity for a few days past purchasing some beef cittle. He says that live stock are not in the best condition; but tbe grass is fioe, aoof soon these will be in good flesh. Eastern Oregon beef brings fair prices in Portland and on the sound, and tbe demand is constantly increasing. The members of the state grange have nearly all departed for their homes. Some left ou the midnight train, and others on the west-boun- d this morning. They univer- sally express themselves well satisfied with tbe treatment they received from tbe citi- zens of Tbe Dalles, and will always enter- tain the kindest feelings toward this city. Dr. H. Logan left on the afternoon train attend the National association of rail- way surgeons, which convenes in Omaha, Neb., May 31st, and will continue in session for three days, From there he will attend the world's fair, and while in Chicago will visit tbe different hospitals in tbat city. He was accompanied by his son Ray. The exenraioo to tbe Cascade Locks this morning took down over a hundred passen- gers. There were those who went to view the scenery aod for the vacation, others for the sport of fishing and bunting, and there was one camping outfit on board. The day was all tbat could be desired, and the pic- turesque scenery along the Columbia conld not be seen under brighter auspices. A determined and desperate attempt at self destrnetion was made Tuesday noon by John Looney, living on a farm one mile north of Mooroe, Benton county. Looney first attempted the terrible deed with a Winchester rifle, but was detected in the act and tbe gun taken away from him by bis wife and grown op daughter. Then he tried to stab himself in tbe heart, but failed. The late H. Staley left bis property, real and personal, to school districts Noa. 40 and n Wasco county in his last will. This will is dated April 5. 1890, and tbe direc- tors of tbe distriots are named aa exeon tors. Tbe instrument was admitted to probate yesterday, and tbe asseata will amount to about $3000 If put at interest this would furnish a fund for long terms of school in these districts. - Corvallia Timet: Sheriff Osburn has com- pleted the deli, queot tax roll and 'on Mon- day turned it over to the county clerk. Tbe total amna- -t of taxes delinquent is only out $12,000, which compared with tbe $29,000 deliuquent last year is a very good showing for the payors as well as the col- lector, especially when the brief time al- lowed for payment is taken into con.idera-tion- . Tbe present delinquent list is the smallest that bas been turned over to tbe clerk for fourteen years. A dispatch in tbe Oregonian states that Thomas E Jennings uf Seattle, Wash., baa been appointed as an additional bank exam iner foe Washington and Oregon. This is 9 Powder the position for which Mr. H. M. Beall, of tnis city, maoe application, and for which he was eminently fitted by long years of ex perience. Mr. Beall would have made an honest and capable offinial, and his many menus in ine canes win teel disappointed in nis not receiving the appointment. In our evening cotempo-ary'- s report of the proceedings of the state grange pub lished yesterday, it stated that a resolution was pas ed unanimously the peo ple of Tbe Dalles and the press, especially tne Vnrontcle, tor their generous treatment of as daring our sojourn among them, This is utterly false, for we haye in our possesion the original copy of the proceedings furnished us bv Air. UUIeary, tne secretary ot tbe state grange, and no such language appears. Such a discriminat- ing resolution would be unworthy the char- acter for fairness to which the Patrons of Husbandry are entitled, and which they have always exhibited wherever they have met. Mr. Hilleary told us a resolution of thanks was passed, and he would write it more fully wbeu he bad the leisure. Ihe proceedings, as ru lished in the Times. Mountaineer, were verbatim acoordicg to the copy furnished by the secretary, and this paper printed the only correct report of the session. From Mtindays Daily. Mr. A. W. Braouer, of Nausuoe, is in tbe city. Mr. Allen Grant, the sheeo king of An telope, is in tbe city Mis Grace Michell and sitter Ursa, of Columbus, Wash., are visiting friends in the city. Mr. A. Underwood, of White Siloion, the pioneer of pioneers in this region, is in town to.day. Several loals of wool ui rived from Klick- itat county thiv morning, and who hauled to the warehouses. The folloo'ing dec! was lileil f'ir record y. Horace W Gimi.le aud wiletuN W Wall.ce; lo: 3, block 3, town ot Antel- ope; $300. Mrs Carrie F. Graham ami Miss Annia Bulger arrivcj ou the afternoon train Irom Portlaud, and will spend a few days visit- ing friends and relatives iu the city. The young ladies literary club will meet this evening at the rexideuuo of Miss Row- land, instead of Wednesday. Tennyson and his works will be continued, as this was begun at the last meettug. Emil Beck, the man brought here from Kan-a- a for larceny of railroad tica,6t, was brought before Justice z this morning. He waived examinttio i ami was held iu $500 bail, in default of which he was com- mitted to jail. A gentle zephyr blew yeateHay, and in- creased in volume until at night it became a hurricane aud howled atound street cor- ners and tree tops in very unpleasant Ine temperature became much cooler to day, aod a fire in stoves was very agreeable this morning. Notwithstanding the fact that few com plete fleeces have yet been reocived. Moody a, "warehouse is in places crowded to the rafters with wool. The product is re- ceived every day, and expecting a large lot this season, preparations are being made for available room. Grant county exchange: We are informed that the sheep meu of Hamilton aod vicinity saved 80 per cent of their lambs. Shearing has commenced and tbe fleece will fall short of last year, about 7 or 8 pounds will be the average. Sheepmen are selling off their sheep as fast as they cau get good prices, as many are of the opinion that the industry is oo the wane in that country. . In Justice Sohutz' court this afternoon, the case of state vs. Yerger was heard. Il appeared to have resulted over a dog fight, and the complaining witness and family joined in an onslaught on tbe defendant at their borne and then came in town and bad him arrested. After heanog the testimony the justice dismissed the case and charged the costs to the one making the complaint. We have conversed witb several stock- men iu regard to the future outlook of stock and stock interests of this county, says tbe Prineville News, Tbe prevailing opinion cf several seema to be that the present prices pud for sheep must necessarily become 1 iwer and that the price of cattle will in- crease. While no particular reasons were given for tbe theories advanced, yet tbe opinions as given seem to be general. Mra. J. G. Wilsoo, of this city, has been honored by being lnyited to deliver an ad-dr- ees by tbe woman'a committee, at tbe world'a fair. She has chosen for her sub ject, the "Pioneer Women of Oregon," and no one is better able to speak on this theme, as she came to Oregon in 1851, and has an intimate knowlege of many interesting eventa of pioneer days. Mrs. Wilson is a lady of great intelligence, and her address will be very interesting. An exchange says: Farmers who produce nothing but a little grain or bay hive noth-- , mg but a little grain or bay. Having noth- ing to sell bat a little grain or bay, tbey have no other way of getting money. Hav ing no other supply of money they feel their poverty and claim tbe right to growl at tbe government, tbe state, the weather and every other thing and person, their wives and children included. To remedy this they should euter upon diversified farming, and raise more bogs, sheep, cattle, horses and poultry, and in a short time they will wonder why tbey kicked at anybody or anything except themselves. Prineville Netos: Most of the horse grow ers of this couoty complain that there is no market for their animals tbat they cannot dispose of their horses at anything like reasonable figures. The truth is that only a comparatively few men engsged in this business in this county raise tbe right kind ot stock." Tbe small horse is bard to sell at any price Nobody wants him. The wel'-bre- d draft horse sells readily at a f auly good price. There is a constant demand for his use. So also will a well- - bred driving horse sell. And ho will sell for all he is worth. The market ia not so much at fault. It is tbe grower of scrubs. Mr. Geo. P. Morgan came up from tbe Locks Saturday, and spent Sunday in the oity. He says tbe locomotive to be used on the railway to the Hermann creek quarry bas been received irom the f ortlaod shops, where it bad been sent for repairs. There are about 13U men at work now, taaing stone from the quarry and preparing it for its position in the walls ot the canal. This stone it the best in quality of any that has been used, and there is an inexhaustible supply. An electns plant is being d, so that work ou be continued day and night as soon as the water recedes. The Day brothers are giving every indica- tion of being determined to push the work to completion at tbe earliest possible time, and tbe greatest confidence is expressed in their ability to accomplish wbat they bays undertaken. Last night there was quite a variety of occupants at tbe oity jail, a hobo, a "drank," and a pugilist. They spent the lonely hours of darkness inside prison bars, and this morning were interviewed by the recorder, who, after bearing tbe evidenoe in each case, imposed a fine commen- surate witb the offense. Tbe hobo bad calmly surveyed tbe extent and limits of tne city, witb no other intent than to take life a eas ly aa possible, while tbe "drunk" bad imbibed stimulating fluid, until reason bad become temporarily unbalanced and his idea of life was having a jolly, good time, aod the pugilist had exercised tbe "manly art of in such a manner that bis closed band bad come in violent contact k with tbe "human fare divine" of a belliger- ent neighbor. These w. re oriines for wbicb tbe city ordinances had provided penalties, snd required no intervention of a jury to measure tbe extent of punishment. For the Tlx DECORATION DAI. WALLA WEST.

Wamic, May 27, 1893. The Oironit Court- - Saturday. In the suit of the Water Supply Co. of Hood River valley, vs. W. R Winans, yes terday afternoon, the testimony for the plaintiff having closed, counsel for defend- - ant moved that a non-sui- t be entered against the plaintiff, which was granted by the eourt, and the suit was dismissed witb out prejudice and the jury discharged. The grand jury returned yesterday after noon two indiotment against J. O. War- - ner-t-on- e for selling liq-io- r without licen, , snd another for disposing of I q ior to a minor. Mr. Warner was arrested and brought in town this morning, plaund under $250 bouds and given until Monday to plead.. - Mr. J. L. Lafferty appeared in court this moroing pleaded guilty to simple assssalt aud was fined $50 snd costs. He was in dieted for assault with a dmgerous wnnron. Several jurors wete discharged th'a morn ing for the term, but eonnch w.re retained to constitute a panel. The grand jury went down to Hood River this morning ou the HeyuUltor to ex. mine into thn conditiou of tin c lunty hos pital. Mod lay. The court room presented a lotie'y ap pearance this forenoon when a reporter of the cal ed to gather the grist. There was not a single oc cupant except the unflinching bailiff of the grand jury, who sat at as the phiux rf Egypt guarding the portals to the inner temple of justice. Those, whim he was guardiug against intrusion, were' busy in their room attending to business, ot what manner will be ascertained hereafter. O.i Saturday eyeuing Judge Brad thaw discharged all the petit jurors, except six, which he retained for any future emer gency. This morning J. O. Warner, pleaded guilty to selling liquor without license and w fined $200 and costs. Tbe case of Beck may come up for trial during this term of court, and, possibly that of Taylor, at Antelope, for shooting Lai Tai, the Chinaman. Taylor was ar- rested beyond prineville a few days ago, and is en route to Tbe Dalles, - Shooting at Antelope. Ochooo Review. On Friday of last week Ervm Taylor an dertook to settle tbe Chinese question in the town of Antelope by attempting to kill Lai Tai, the Chinese hotel keeper of that place.' It seems that Lai Tai and Taylor had some trouble several weeks ago over a board bill, and on Friday evening Taylor concluded to annihilate the Mongol. He went to the dining room of the hotel, and seeing Lai Tai approaching the door with an armful of dishes shot at him, tbe ball strik- ing the top of his bead and removing a con- siderable portion of bis soalp. Tbe China- man fell to the floor, and Taylor fired an- other shot, then fled. There was some de- lay in procuring a warrant for Taylor's ar- rest, and he made good bis escape. It was supposed that he came this wsy, aod in faot is known tbat be was in this vicinity Moo-d- ay afternoon. Officers Arthur Stewart and Ben Glisan arrived here Monday even- ing, and with Sheriff Booth put in the greater part of the night scouring the coun- try, but did not succeed in locating their man. Tom Spafford came aoross the desert Monday night, and about 1 o'clock met a man tea miles the other side o Powell ' Buttes inquiring the wsy to Silver lake, who suited the description of Taylor. Messrs. Glisan and Stewart accompanied by Sam Hodges as guide, started again in pursuit ot Taylor Tuesday afternoon, aud intercepted him at Button springs Wednes day morning. Tbey arrived hers witn nun Wednesday night and leit Thursday lor Antelope. Taylor will be taken to The Dalies for trial, aod at ooort it now io ses sion he may be tried at this term. Publio Speaking Last Night From Satarday's Pally. Tbe Dalles brass band last night, after - marching down Second street, escorted Mr. Hayes, tbe lecturer of the grange, and other v speakers from the Umatilla House to the eourt bouse, where a number of people had assembled to listen to tbe addresses. Alter playing a few tunes, the baod adjourned lo the court room, and tbe first speaker, Mr. J. H. Leedy, was introduced. He spoke only a few moments, not expecting to be called upon. His remarks showed careful thought on tbe queitions now agitating tbe public mind and be used logical oonolusioos. He was followed by Mr. Hayes, who dwelt principally upon tbe extravagances of the last legislature, and the necessity for farm- ers to vote for men who would introduce economy in publio affairs. The speech wsa enthusiastically received and frequently an plauded. From beginning to end the audi- ence appeared to be in sympathy with tha speaker, and seemed to endorse bis senti- ments. Tbe meeting seemed to be produc- tive of tbe best of feeling among the visit- ing Patrons of Husbandry, and at its close there were warm s. Real Estate Transfers.

IS MEMO EIAM,

Communicated.

Mr. Li. Staley, who died at Wamic, May12th was a native of Virginia, and wassixty four years old last April. He wasban d without the intervention ol theChristian clergy. It was his request to

havs a secular funeral, and bis friend, Mr.

S. B. Driver, with whom he had lived forthe past eight years, tally complied withhis request.

Tbe following obituary was read by L D.

Driver:My friends, an honorable heart has ceased

to beat; a doer of generous deeds hasreached the silent baven that all the deadhave reached, and where the voyage of lifemust end.

And we, his friends, who even now arehastening after him, have met to do tbelast acts that man may do for' man. To tellhit virtues and to lay with tenderness and of

oftears his ashes in the sacred place of peaceand rest.

In tbe multitude of blind followers in tbemonotony of subservience, nothing is moreinspiring tbau a free and independent man-- one

who gives and asks reasons, one whodemands free.lom and gives what he de-

mands; one who refuses to be a slave or a

master. Such a man was Mi. Staley, to

whom we are paying the tribute of love aodrespect. He was an honest man. He gave

the rights he claimed. '

This was the foundation on wbicb bebuilt to think for himself. Tnis was, to

him, not only a privilege, not only a right,

but a duty and a joy.By the grave of man stands the angel of

silence. A heart breaks and man dies; a

leaf falls in the forest a babe is born, and

the great world sweeps on.

No one can tell which is tbe better life

with its gleams and joys, its shadows, its towreaths, its thorns and crowns; or deatbwith its peace, its rest, its cool and pleasantbrow that bath within no memory, no fear

grief or pain.Some may censure the last act of this

noble man, but I do not. AU who knew

him I think will say with me "He was

jataifiable. He sought and found that restwhich was so ruthlessly denied by a cruelprovidence."

Farewell dear friend. The world is betterfor your life. The world is braver for your

death.Farewell, we loved you living, and we

love you now.

Notwithstanding the fact that few complete fleeces have yet been reocived.Moody a, "warehouse is in places crowded tothe rafters with wool. The product is re-

Grant county exchange: We are informedthat the sheep meu of Hamilton aod vicinitysaved 80 per cent of their lambs. Shearinghas commenced and tbe fleece will fall shortof last year, about 7 or 8 pounds will be theaverage. Sheepmen are selling off theirsheep as fast as they cau get good prices, asmany are of the opinion that the industryis oo the wane in that country. .

In Justice Sohutz' court this afternoon,the case of state vs. Yerger was heard. Ilappeared to have resulted over a dog fight,and the complaining witness and familyjoined in an onslaught on tbe defendant attheir borne and then came in town and badhim arrested. After heanog the testimonythe justice dismissed the case and chargedthe costs to the one making the complaint.

We have conversed witb several stock-men iu regard to the future outlook of stockand stock interests of this county, says tbePrineville News, Tbe prevailing opinion cfseveral seema to be that the present pricespud for sheep must necessarily become1 iwer and that the price of cattle will in-

crease. While no particular reasons weregiven for tbe theories advanced, yet tbeopinions as given seem to be general.

Mra. J. G. Wilsoo, of this city, has beenhonored by being lnyited to deliver an ad-dr- ees

by tbe woman'a committee, at tbeworld'a fair. She has chosen for her subject, the "Pioneer Women of Oregon," andno one is better able to speak on this theme,as she came to Oregon in 1851, and has anintimate knowlege of many interestingeventa of pioneer days. Mrs. Wilson is alady of great intelligence, and her addresswill be very interesting.

An exchange says: Farmers who producenothing but a little grain or bay hive noth-- ,

mg but a little grain or bay. Having noth-ing to sell bat a little grain or bay, tbeyhave no other way of getting money. Having no other supply of money they feel theirpoverty and claim tbe right to growl at tbegovernment, tbe state, the weather andevery other thing and person, their wivesand children included. To remedy thisthey should euter upon diversified farming,and raise more bogs, sheep, cattle, horsesand poultry, and in a short time they willwonder why tbey kicked at anybody oranything except themselves.

Prineville Netos: Most of the horse growers of this couoty complain that there is nomarket for their animals tbat they cannotdispose of their horses at anything likereasonable figures. The truth is that onlya comparatively few men engsged in thisbusiness in this county raise tbe right kindot stock." Tbe small horse isbard to sell at any price Nobody wantshim. The wel'-bre- d draft horse sells readilyat a fauly good price. There is a constantdemand for his use. So also will a well- -

bred driving horse sell. And ho will sellfor all he is worth. The market ia not somuch at fault. It is tbe grower of scrubs.

Mr. Geo. P. Morgan came up from tbeLocks Saturday, and spent Sunday in theoity. He says tbe locomotive to be used onthe railway to the Hermann creek quarrybas been received irom the fortlaod shops,where it bad been sent for repairs. Thereare about 13U men at work now, taaingstone from the quarry and preparing it forits position in the walls ot the canal. Thisstone it the best in quality of any that hasbeen used, and there is an inexhaustiblesupply. An electns plant is being d,

so that work ou be continuedday and night as soon as the water recedes.The Day brothers are giving every indica-tion of being determined to push the workto completion at tbe earliest possible time,and tbe greatest confidence is expressed intheir ability to accomplish wbat they baysundertaken.

Last night there was quite a variety ofoccupants at tbe oity jail, a hobo, a"drank," and a pugilist. They spent thelonely hours of darkness inside prison bars,and this morning were interviewed by therecorder, who, after bearing tbe evidenoein each case, imposed a fine commen-surate witb the offense. Tbe hobo badcalmly surveyed tbe extent and limits oftne city, witb no other intent than to takelife a eas ly aa possible, while tbe "drunk"bad imbibed stimulating fluid, until reasonbad become temporarily unbalanced and hisidea of life was having a jolly, good time,aod the pugilist had exercised tbe "manlyart of in such a manner thatbis closed band bad come in violent contact kwith tbe "human fare divine" of a belliger-ent neighbor. These w. re oriines for wbicbtbe city ordinances had provided penalties,snd required no intervention of a jury tomeasure tbe extent of punishment.
