The secoud series of wool sales under the sealed bid system for this year, con ducted utder the direction of the Ore gon Wool Growers' Association occurred in this city yesterday. To be In readiness for this sale grow ers from Morrow, Grant and Gilliam counties have been mulling their wools to this city and a large amount was on storage. It was a busy day at the warehouses. The buyers were on hand early and business was rushing the entire day. When the buyers got through in the evening, the warehouses presented aad looking sight. Wool was piled here and there arid thrown in every direction on both floors of the buildings. The buyers haven't much respect for wool sacks. Kach man carries a sharp knife and when a lot of wool was offered the sacks were split from one end to the other. The wool is hand'ed and in speeted without much ceremony. R F. Hynd, manager of the M. C. L A T. Co's warehouse and secretary of the Oregoe Wool Growers' Association had charge of the sales. A 'ter inspec tion the buyers wou'd make their offers and place the sealed bids in a hat when they were read by Mr. Hynd to the grower. It was a fast way of doing business and in some ways resembled the work ings of a stock exchange. In nearly every case growers were well pleaded with the offers and ac cepted their checks with a feeling that they had received every cent their wool was worth. The sealed bid system inaugurated by the Oregon Wool Growers' Associa tion has been a great success. It has been the means of furnishing the grow ers a better market than could have been obtained otherwise. While the growers have been benefit ted, it has aiso been satisfactory to the buyers. The wool is pooled in large lots where it can be examined. It is held until the day of the sales without trafficking and the buyers all have an even show. It only requires two or three days to do the business which was impossible under the old system. Tke wools offered here veeterdav were mostly of the lighter Morrow, Grant and Gilliam county clips. The following buyers were present: M. W. Iirigbam, representing Whit man, Farnsworth A Thayer, of Boston. Fred Kuhn, representing the Botany Worsted Mills, of New York. Frank Lee, representing C S Moses A Co., Han P'rancisco. Frank Green, representing S K"sh land, San Francisco. Wm. Mllery representing iiallowel', Donald A Co., Boston. Frank Lee, the well known buyer is credited with paying the highest price for any one lot of wool at the sales. For the Chas. White clip of Lone Hock, he paid 14 cents per pound. Following are the sales at the M. C. L. A T. Co's warehouse : Thos. Gilfillen, M,(H pounds at Li's cents per pound. Conner A Hayes, r,v) pounds at 1334 cents..

A S. Co, and Thomas Broker of Spokane, a man who has had experience in coal mining, have been looking over the proposition during the past week, and from reports Sent in Tit these experts, it is stated upon good authority that the O. R. A N Co. is now Interested in these mines. The company's diamond drill is kept at work all the time. Indications are that these mines will be worked at an early date. The City hotel has been refurnished and is now in tiptop shape, which is proven by the rush of customers in that quarter. Kye is almost ready to cut for hay. The dry spell is injuring the crops some. A rain in the near future would bring large yield. We are to have an addition to our school building. A meeting is called to raise funds for building the same. Those bunting opportunities for school ing their children can do no better than come here w here there is no evil temp tation to lead the urchins estray. Hardman has tbe most tastefully decorated school room in Morrow county, according to ye reporter. The same is due to the untiring efforts and excellent taste of Prof. Mav berry who as a teacher is not outclassed. We greatly regret that toe professor can uot be retainer.
