March 30, 2007 page 4 PASSENGERS HELD AGAINST WILL MORE SPITE WORK-The passengers that arrived at Celilo on Wednesday evening on the steamer TENINO were compelled to remain in that dismal place all that night. Mr. F.M. Ewing, from Umatilla County, informs us that the passengers were anything but pleased with this treatment and expressed themselves to that effect in plain language. Many of them rather than pay the "Monopoly" one dollar for a bunk on the boat, slept in the warehouse and others in the passenger cars. The only object we can see in thus treating the passengers, is to keep them from spending a few bits in The Dalles. If this kind of spite work in indulged in much longer, the "Monopoly" will not have a friend in the country. However, the "Monopoly" is rich and don't want any friends. All right; time will tell.
