Notwithstanding the bard timet earned by free trade agitation, people who come here from other countries are loth to return to their old homer, ays the MoMinnville Reporter. When the World't Columbian Exposition was held the provisions of the alien con tract labor law were suspended until one year after the cloee of the expo ition, ao far ai the employes of tbe various exhibitor were concerned. At tbe bx pi ration of that time persons of the clasa named who did Dot volun tarily return to their own countries were made aubject to all the processes and penalties applicable to aliens com ing In open violation of the law. Con gresa made no provision for the en forcement of thia epecUl law, and it is practically a dead letter. Three fourth of the peraona who came in 1892 are till in the country, and propose to remain because they consider it tbe best country on earth ia which to make a living. Fsoat reading the Grant Pas Ob server one would naturally believe the whole of Southern Oregon i a bed of gold. There 1 little room for doubt, however, that Southern Oregon is rich in mineral resources, and that the vi cinity of Grants Pass is an especially favored spot is undisputed. Mining in Southern Oregon is all done by the hydraulic process, and in localities where water can be bad a good profit ' is realised by those engaged in the business. Tbe soil is said to all be mixed with gold, ao that it makes little difference where tbe water ia turned on. . A xumbek of Pendleton men who are blessed with wives, Bays tbe Trib' tine, have made arrangements to pro cure what is known as a "special It' cense for traveling." It reads : "This ia to certify that mv husband may, with ray free and full consent, drink as much as he likes, and enjoy the so ciety of any lady while away from home. I want him to enjoy life while ha lives, aa he will be a long time dead. baid license to be void unless accom panied by the wife's bona fide signa ture. PERIS POINTERS. We have fair weather again. T.

The nttional anlute had been tired, end every body for a mile around wakened up early. The calailiurmv inn parade was quite striking hut not large in numbers. The church was tendered (or the oral on and extra vests were placed in side until its capacity wat readied. At It o clock the bouse was tilled by people to listen to the proceedings. Tbe bund played, the choir sang, an address of welcome by K a. Hattin. prertiient oi tne council, was tollowed by the orati n of thedey by Judge P. H. Ward, of Portland a niaterlv. thnnuhtful and pleasine address that was listened to very a'tenrtvclv with evident eniovment and profit. An adjournment waa followed oy dinner ann trie snorts tbe afternoon bepiuninit with a tipht rone performance by rrofessor 1-exort that was anod. The rain had slopped tv this time and a number of race followet"wit)i an ex hibition of lon-rollin- by Messrs. Johnson and Joe Id ion that was tremendously sp- Jilauded by the crowd. All went well until P. M., "when another vigorous shower drove the crowd to shelter, and for fifteen minutes there was a tremendous down nonr. Dnrine this time, however, Pro'esor Lexort aave an exhibition at Oonyrra' hall that was good. In the evening the fire works came off. followed bv a dance in the scnooi no use wnicn was aepi up ait uignt The report of an explosion heard about s:3t o ciot-K in our city last Saturday even ing excited no particular interest until less than an hour later Mrs. R. A. Llllach, who had left here for her home, on horseback, returned and excitedly told that tbe fine residence of James Fisk about two niilea out had been blown to pieces, and she thought she saw part of the mangled re mains of a human being lvinz near. The news spread very fast, and men, women and shil iren started at once for the scene of the accident. Arriving there the storv was found to be true, and tbe remains of tbe hnu-e were on fire, while fragments were scattered about in evary direction. I'arts of a man's body were found about the scene of the explosion, but not enough to identify the bo iy exoept by fragments of clothing, and these indicated that tbe body was that of James Fisk himself. It was known that there had been a Quantity of giant and Jud-on powder about tbe premises used in blowing up stomps, and it is supposed that some of this which was known tn be stared in an outhouse near the dwelling and possibly in it caused the explosion, whemer tne result ol accident or design is nut known. Night coming on a guard was placed over what pieces of body could he round, a coroner a jury was selected by the justice of the pesce to meet oiouuav uiiruui. aim people WHO DIU gathered from all directions returned to iheir homes. On Snndav search was made for additional parts of the body, but there was not a great deal more found as the standing grass made it difficult to find any thing. What remains con id be found were taken to the residence of O.J. Brvant from where ihey were bailed on Monday after noon in tbe Bryant cemetery. Tne coro ner's jury spent Monday in hearing whnt testimony could be secured to throw light upon the sad occurrence but had not con cluded their investigation at this writing.

Tbe cans? of tire is not known, but there must have been powder in the house which caused parts of his body to be thrown in so many ainerent directions. Independence riav was duly observed hv the people of this vicinity. The crowd gathered in the hall on account of tbe rain wiiere the programme was enjoyed by all. The oration was delivered by Hon. Schnab blee, of Portland. Many times the sn-aker brought fonrth ronsing cheers of enthusi asm, commendation and patriotism, and the address, to say tbe least was well re ceived and greatly appreciated. After the exercises were over dinner was served, of wbicn mere was a great plenty. If any one went awav hungry it was their own fault. The races took place at 3 o'clock.

Just as every bod v was prepared to enjoy themselves a verv heavy shower of rain came, then there was a race to sea who could get out of tbe rain first. CROPS AND WEATHER. Following is the report of the State Wt-atbt-r Bureau for the week ending on Monuay. July e. , WESTERN OREGON. Weather Showers occurred on the 3rd. 4th and nth of July, being heaviest on the 4th; the total vainlail was from 0 10 IvO.io oi an men. Jhe temperature waa much cooler than the preceding week: the man mum ranged from Hi t 80 degrees, the minimum fmn 4'i to 63 decrees. Tbe weather was cloudy to partly cloudr and cool up to i-unday; Sunday and Monday were clear ana arin. Crops The weather was exceedingly lavoranie to tut growtn or vegetation. Previous warm and dry wealher had dried the surface soil considerably, hence ibe rain was beneficial. The r.iin did very slight damage to hay which was down. Haying has progressed during the past week. Hay from grain is being made this week. The second cron of alfalfa will be cut by the 15th. Barley is riienlne and will soon be ready to cut. Bv the 16th fall sown wheat will begin to ba harvested in the ou.hern coun ties. The encouraging reports aa to the wheat, barley and oats continue. Along tne Immediate coast vegetation was never better; the hay crop ia especially heavy, and potatoes promise a heavy crop. so lar as tne bay and grain crops are coil' cerned. Western Oregon promises to eclipse her former yields. The fruit prospects continue to be of the most encotir.iging character, its rain on the 4th did damage to Royal Ann cherries, but the damage was alight. Peaches are ripening in Jackson and Josephinecountiea. and they will be a la'ge crop. Pears, ap ples and prunes promise their Usual large crop. This Is now the season of the vear when rain seldom fulls: hence it is hardly proba ble that any rain will occur this year at tbia season of the year. The temperature will most likely materially decrease on Wednesday and Thursday with high fog or cloudy 1 biirsday to noon. No rain is ex pected to occur wbeu the change in tem perature occurs.

This year the work had to be done again, when it was discovered that last year's work had been slighted. Snch work don't stand, and only gives away tbe deception practiced. Some parties discovered a new kind of grass along tbe slough which grows very thrifty, with smalt heads snd full of seed. It resembles millet, snd on inquiry it seems to be what is known in some of trie western states a foxtail, a very disareeahle nlant as it spreads very fast, and with ordinary cultivation is bard to kill out. It makes very good hay. however. Frank Merrill and family are visiting Mr. Merrill's mother.and other friends, and ia looking for a sawmill site.
