Scarcity of Food New York, Sept. 8. A dispatch to the World from London says: World's special Inquires through- out Iieland fully corroborate the alarming predictions cobled Saturday of the failure of the harvest and a con sequent Impending famine. Cries of warning to the government are rising in a crescending scale from all parts of Ireland. They arc not con fined, to the congested districts of on the western seaboard. From Mulllngcr, the most pros perous part of the midlands, a corres pondent telegraphs: "The crops are now Irretrievable de stroyed. It will be Impossible for the farmers to make anything out of tho cereals this year, as they are quickly rotting. In the chuiches a prayer for fine weather was recited, and If a change does not come im mediately, the crop might as well be left to manure the ground." From county of Wexford, noted as one of the richest In the country, the tidings are: "The green crop may be descrided a gigantic failure in county Wexford this year. The greater part of the potato crop is only fit for cattle feed ing." From Fermanaugh, a correspondent telegraphs: "At a meeting held here to ask for a rcductioQ'ln rents, the pariah-priest presiding declared not since Black 1847 has the prospect for farmers in this district been so bad. In bcveral places the potatoes havo been a failure. Hundreds of tons of hay have been ruined by the heavy rains and floods." From Carlow, known as ''the model county," comes the following dispatch: "There Is before our farmers an out- look as disastrous as It is possible to tnan QUr profits on Scllil concleve, owing to the frightful ,. , . . . . weather.

In many districts they ,i which present the saddening spectacle : of being leveled to the earth ;by the presistent rains. Apprehensions con cerning potatoes also have been dis mally realised." THE STRIKE SITUATION. Deputies Are Defeated and Many Men Hurt. Pittsburg, Sept. 8. Efforts to evict tho striking miners of the Pitts burg & Chicago Coal Company, at Orangcvillc, one and a half miles from Gastonvlllc, resulted in a riot of no mean proportions, and the utter fail ure of the company to accomplish Its object. Deputies from Washington, Pa., In charge of Chief Deputy Wethcrlll, havo reached Flnleyvllle, where they were met by a large crowNl of strikers. Each deputy was armed with Win cherter and revolver, but In spite of this ttic strikers, headed by 100 Polish women, closed In on them and they were forced back and finjilly retreated to Gastonvllie, followed by about 200 men and women. At Gastonvlllc the deputies took refuge in the office of the company, where they were kept all night, dur ing which time U.ebuildlngwas bom barded stones and an occasional shot tiled. r - At 7 o'clock In the morning tho trouble of the night reached a climax, when the deputies sallied, out from their bcselged quarters and started to march to Orangoville. Headed by women, the strikers rushed on tho deputies witli stones and clubs and pick handles and the blows fell thick and fast. One big women wrested a rifle from a deputy's hands and stt uck him onjtlie head with It, inflicting a serious injury. By this time 1000 men, women and chil dren had Joined tho crowd. They came from Venetia, Snowden, Cala mity,and Flnleyvllle. Tho deputies made their way to Orangevlllo and took refuge in a vacant house, closely followed by the mob, which surrounded the building and threatened to burn it One of tho strikers approached, the house with n ling of truce und a confcrcnco was held. The deputies were ordered to leaye town. After a short parley it was decided to do so. They emerged from the house badly scared lot of men and walking between the open ranks of tho strikers, started for Gaston vlllc. Almost every man In the posse was cut and bleeding and several wero badly hurt. As the defeated deputies ran the gauntlet, they were greeted with hisses curses and ridicule. The strikers then closed behind them and marched them to the stat ion, where they took the train for Washington. After their departure the mob disappeared and everything is quiet now. DRAIN ITEMS.

The body of a boy was discovered In the Wlllatnetto river by the crew of the steamer Gypsy .Tuesday afternoon, at a point about twenty mils below Salem, near tho mouth of Duke's slough. It Is tin general supposition that tho body is that of Awald Lankow, the lS-yea'-old boy, who so mysteriously disappeared from tho C. C. T. company's dock on the evening of Suday, August 29. Tho following account of tho boy's disappearance appeared In the Jour nal on Monday following: '-A mother nnd two sons aged about Kl and 8 respectfully, were among tho Portland contingent of hop pickers reaching Salem on tho steamer Ba monla last night. Tho mother and youngest son requested tho oldest boy to sleep on the boat with them but he refused to do so, preferring to spend the night on land. Accompanied by another boy of an equal age, ho went ashore, since which time lie has not been seen. The mother is distracted with grief and is anxious to learn of her son's wherebouts. From tho fact, that the boy was not very bright it Is likely he wandered about the streets and lost his way but will likely return in a few days." When discovered the body was ly ing face down-ward and was attired in blue overalls which correspond with tho apparel worn by the boy at the time of Ills disappearance. The body was attached to the Marion county bank and the steamer contin ued Its way to Salem when Coroner A. M. dough was notified. That gentle man was a passenger down the river on tho Gypsy to get possession of the body. At 3:30 o'clock this afternoon Coro ner A, M. dough had not returned with tho body, but it is cxpectcl ho will reach Salem on one of tho even ing boats when an inquest will bo held. Fred Lankow, aud Win. Lankow, brother and cousin, respectively, of Awald Lankow, arrived In the city from Portland on the Boscburg mall tills morning. They will take posses sion of the body Immediately after the Inquest has been held and convey it to Portland w hero burial will to had. AT THE COURT HOUSE. County Court Met Today Business Transacted.

In nn interview with local hop growers and buyers regarding the sit uation, outlook, etc.. of tho Oregon hop crop, and especially that of the Willamette valley, it is remarkable how materially the statements made by the two classes differ. The grower, who has his crop at stake, Is most hopeful and cheerful over the situa tion, lie predicts a heavy yield of an excellent quality. Ho reports tie yards comparatively free from lice while mold has not yet put In an ap pearance. The buyer will picture the situation as most deplorable. All yards are more or less affected with lice, while tho rainy weather of the past two weeks has caused mountains of mold to appear, which is spreading very rapidly. The yield will scarcely be a half-crop. Strange how Intelli gent men can dilTcr In their views on Important, matters. "Nrgleetnf duly" in Salem's muni' cipal circles Is frequently much less expensive to the tax-pajors than an oyer-pcrforiuaiico of the same.

The resolutions presented by Messrs Chcrrlngtcm and Ohmart at the last meeting of the school board asked that all Insurance expiring during the present scnooi year be renewed the same as It Is now running, and with ho same agents. This would give Bozorth Bros. 810,000 and leave $20,000 foralltho other agontiof Salem lo divide nnionir them. Here in tho resolution: "Resolved, By the Iwmrd of direc tors of school district No. 2-1, Marlon county, Orpgon.that tho lire Insuraucc expiring on the several school bullc1 ngs and furniture und fixtures be longing to said district, during tho remaining months of this school year, bo renewed througt the Pame local agents and In the same amounts to each agent that Issued policies explr Ing during that period." This was without a partlclo of doubt drawn up and Introduced In the Interest or the A. P, A. regime that has tried to run our school district, and it Is such Jobs as this thutaro disgusting the better element In that organization. Many men Joined tho society, In Marlon county, under tho honest conviction that It was their patriotic duty, but since they find tho organization used purely by schemers for political ends und to plunder tho public treasury in the name of "nntrl. otlsm, they shrink from being a party 10 11. in tne samo gulso has Marlon county been fleeced by somo unscrup ulous political ghouls. Tho peoplo should get their eyes opened.and learn 1110 true inwardness of these schem ing operators before long. An Idea About Silver. Kditoh Jouunal: In the consid eration of the silver question, there seems to bo one objection, on the ground, that tho silver bullion ovn: ers would be tho greatest gainers. While considering this question tiio following solution came to mo; viz. That tho government should Immedi ately hecome a purchaser of sllyer at the highest markot prlco, unless the price should exceed ono dollar for Thrpo Hundred and Seventy-ono and one-fourth grains, paying for thosamo In silver coin or silver clrtilcatcs, either to bo legal tender. Such a condition, It becms to me, would cause an immedlato rlso in tho prlco of silver bullion and a gradual expansion of tho currency. While tho differenco between tho buying and coinage prlco would bo a sourco of In come to the government, neither of which would bo oblcctionable. And last but not least, foreign silver coined at our mints would, at present prices, leayo our government about 57 per cent of tho bullion brought. Sisters, Or., Aug. 27, '07 F. A. B.
