A suoni limo ago the farmers of
Minnesota aud North Dakota sent
committee to interview the general
traffic manager of the Great Northern
railroad for the purpose of trying to
induce the management of the road to
make a reduced passenger rate from
scleral of the states of the Union into
huse two states in' order that they
might be able to get meu from abroad
$o handle the immense crops ii these
two slates. This request the company
bare declined to tike into consider
atiou, and it is said to be almost im
possible to get help to harvest their
crops. But a little later, when the man
agers oi tne naii-i uzaimmons prize
fight was to have taken place the com
nuttee irom me atoietic ciuo nail do
difficulty in securing half-rate trans
portation for the fistic fraternity. This
state of affairs is prevalent on more
than the one transportation line men
tioned. It would seem that the grain
crop of these two states would be far
more important to the railroad com
pany than all their other traffic com
bined, prizefights included.
-The state board of railroad commis
sioners, at tbeir session in Salem on
Tuesday, adopted a rale oi 1J per
cent. oS the Southern Pacific com
pany's rale on grain on all that com
pany's lines ia Oregon. It is said
there will be a reduction in the rate
on green fruit, vegetables, live stock
and lumber, to go into effect Boptera
ber 1. It is only a matter of time
when this rate will prevail on all the
.ether lines in Oregon, and perhaps
Washington. It is thought that,
should the railroad com pan j refuse to
comply with the recommendations of
the commission the board, W'H take
action through the courts to compel
the enforcement of the law. This
reduction is a very material one, and,
jf adopted, will be a great benefit, es
pecially to the farmers and mill men
el me state.

TUS RACK QUESTION.
The race prob!en came up in the en
campment thin afternoon and was effec
tive1 settled for all time. The special
champion of the nepro race was ex Con
gressman William Warner, of Missouri.
past commander in-chief, and tie la to-night
receiving tiie tribute of the colored veterans
whose cause ho no eloquently espoused.
The matter came before the ovention. when
Warner, as chairman of the committee
ou the commander-in-chief's recommenda
tions, presented Ute following report;
"Your committee has carefully consid
ered the clear and frank statements of the
commander in-chief, regarding the difficul
ties existing between (lie posts in me ue
partmeiits of l.ouisiati aud Jtusissipi i.
The committee has also considered all the
documents submitted to, and the argu
ments made before it, a to the causes lead
ing to the existing trouble in those depart
ments. The old poata, from one to cicht,
inclusive, in the depart..H'iitt of louisiana
and MisNi.sidppi are composed of white com
rades. The posts from nine to seventeen,
inclusive, are composed of colored com
rades. The contention is that the latter
posts arc tainted with fraud in their organ
ization. The remedy suggested of a separ
ate department of concurrent jurisdiction
for colored vetei ans involves an amend
meut to our rules and resulaiions. Dur
ing the fierce struggle for the life of the na
tion, we stool shoulder to shoulder as com
rades tried. It is too late to divide now on
a color line. The man who is g'd enough
to stand between the flag and tho woo
would destroy it, when the fute of the na
tion is trembling in the balance, is eool
enough to be a comrade n any department
or the urana Army ol the MepuDti. ro
different rules have been, or ever shall be
recognized by the survivors of the L'uiou
army and navy. No department should
be esiabhshed for any color or nationality.
The platform of the principles of the (iraiid
Army i so broad that all houonibly dis
charged soldiers and sailors ran stand up
on it. In the opinion of your committee
tbe fact that the departments of Louisiana
and Mississippi consist of poMs. one part
of which is composed of white comrades
and the other of colored comrades, is no
reason for making this radical change iu
our rules and regulations. Our fraternity,
charity and loyaliiy. should be witnessed
by our deeds, as well as our words. The
recommendation of lha commander-in-
chief is based upon the fact that seven of
tne colored posts ot the ueiiartiuents ot
Louisiana and Mississippi petitioned for a
separatedepartment. Comrades, represent
ing a part of their posts, appeared before
me cummiui' anu ciairotHi in argument
that it was their understanding, and that
of many other colored comrades, that tliey
were only pent lomng tor a department to
be created in the state of i -)uians, the
same as in other states, in Which the de
partment of all comrades, white and hlnck,
should be eouallv entitled to membership.
and further that they. and those represented
by them, are opposed to the creation of a
separate department. In view of the facts
submitted your committee is of tho opin
ion it would be inexpedient to place tiie
authority with the commander in-cukf to
organize new or provisional departments
in the states in which there are organized
departments."
This report is signed by William Warner,
John P. Rea, Lucius Fairchild snd Ilcnrv
Painter. The minority report was presented
bp vv. a. veclcer, oi Colorado, lie con
curred in the recommendations of tbe com
mander In -chief, and recommended the
rules and regulations be so changed as to
anthorize the comniander-in chief to organ
ize a department In a department now ex
isting, Wherever satisfied upon proper rep
resentations that they may be organized
without detiiment to the Grand Army of
the Republic, or any other department or
ganization . Mr. Decker defended his min
ority report in a speech of some length. He
dwelt oi) the rsce distinctions ia the South
ern states, and said :
If we did not settle the Question now it
will be here until settled according to the
condition of alfaira found ia Louisiana.

THE APPLE-TUEE AWIIS.
How to Destroy Tlieia With
Least Injury to tho Tree.
Hand Method tho Host- Some l'rao
t leal Facta.
Rntros Mist; I have about ISO young
apple trees, from two to four venrs old.
I.at year the aphis wcra on otdy some
eiiihtor nine trees. This year they had
spread to all the apple trees in the orchard
Karly in M.y, when tho aphis llrst made
lis appearance, 1 began using aomo of the
"sprays" recommended. Many, if not all
the aphis were destroyed by each applica
tion, and. unless tit solution was very
weak, some check to the growth of the
young leaves and shoots followed. This
mode occupied mere tluia than I could
give to it, f commotised examining the
trees once in two days (three or tour times
a week; and found the winged mother
aphii ou the under side of tho new leaves
nearest the end of the shoot, giving birth
to the little preen wingless lice. The ant
was almost always in attendance, ready,
seemingly, to cure for the jwng aphis, nt
and alter birth If lett umiistuthed both
uphiaand ant itienasca rapidly , the foruior
For want of time to do otlierwlie 1 began
crushing these pests hy taking the leaf be
tween tho thumb and linirer. eivluK a een-
tie rubbing pressure, destroying both ants
aphis, it this was uttemjeu to as oileu as
every alternate day, Irom lifleeu to twenty
.seconds of time wassutll. lent for each tree';
or to be more exact. l.V trees were cleaned
in one hour. The aphii made no success-
lul lougment tn my orclmrit, and it is now
absolutely free from the pest. Neither
aphis or ants can be found on my apple
trees at this time.
It must not be understood by the term
"winged aphis" that It is asserted heroin
that it dies. In no iustame have I un
served that this r.uhis ever Hies on or on"
the apple tree Theories should be avoided
and not mixed up v th proven facts; but
the opinion intrudes just litre that the true
relationship or connection between the
aphis aud ant yet remains to be published ,
or is not fully understood. It. may be ob
jected that this "hand method'' could not
lw applied to hearing trees In answer 1
bog to say that one apple tree, heaving this
year one bushel of apples , has been tn-atd
in the same way bv using a step-ladder
with the same result. The attention given
this large tree occupied say quadruple the
time that was required by the small trees.
If there is a more complete, chesner or
quicker way ot destroying the optuc-trec
aphis we hope to be informed of it. The at
tention of the state board of horticulture is
respectfully called to these practical (acts.
'1 here are thousands of small orchards in
tbe state, the entire product of which, if
sold in the market, would not bring enough
money to purchase a sprayer - This "hand
method" is within the reach alike of those
owning one tree or an orchard of thousands. I
.My orchard can be examined at any time
by tbe inspector of fruit pests, and the
modes ami results compared. ltepe tft'.lly,

1591:
WESTERS OREOOX.
Weather. The temperature has
I ecu from 2 to 5 degrees a day below
the average for tho week. On Tuesday
and Wednesday thunder storms were
quite general and rain fell, especially
in thn Willamette valley and along the
coast; rain also fell on Thursday and
Friday, whilu to-day is clearing wea
ther aud warmer. TJio rain fall was
heaviest in Multnomah and Columbia
cou n lies and gradually decreased to
the south, especially south of Marion
county ; south of theCalnpooia mount
ains less than .15 of an inch of ruin
fell. Iu northern part of Willamette
valU'y about .75 of an inch of rain fell ;
in a few sections hail fell ou the 5th.
Crops. The rain did no material
damage to tha wheat crop; much of
the fall wheat was cut and in shock,
ready for the thresher, aud about all
the damage done was the delay which
will crowd fall wheat threshing and
sp'ing wheat cutting' close together.
There are a few reports of wheat hav
ing fallen, but this is practically noth
ing. A continuation of the rain would
have caused the wheat to sprout; the
clearing weather wss most timely.'
Threshed wheat in Polk and Yamhill
counties has been averaging from 25
to 40 bushels per acre ;oaU also yicldod
well. In tome sections plowing for
summer-fallowing is in piogress. The J
rains were of great benefit to crops, gar
dens, pasturage, young orchards and
had a tendency to destroy and cause
a cessation of tbe ravages made by the
hop louse and codlin moth. The four
days rain was most unusnal for this
season of the year, but fortunately no
damage was douo aud good results
from it are expected.
BASTKBH 0BE00"l.
Weather. The temperature has
been considerably below thtt average
for this season of the year. Tne weather
has been cloudy and geueral showers
prevailed on Thursday and Friday,
ranging feom .01 of an inch at The
Dalles. .07 of an inch st Heppner to
.33 of an inch at Baker City. In the
Blue mountains in Union, Wallowa
and Baker counties snow fell on the
night of tbe 5th. Tho temperature was
so cool that fires ware necessary in
the house for comfort.
Crops. The rain delayed harvesting
and threshing for two days ; no damage
was done to the wheat by (he rain,
though it did some damago to the hay
crop east and south of the Blue mount
ains. In Wasco ceunty fromJDufur
to 1 he Dalles the wheat ia shrunken
and the yield is poor; some smut is to
be found ; in other sections the wheat
yield is good. In Gilliam county there
is some rust. In Morrow county the
wheat is yielding even better than wag
expected. In Lmatilla county the
yield is belter than for many years.
