We desire to call attention to our Commercial club and those Interested Jn fruitgrowing to an article appear ing on page , Here Is an opportunity that Grande Ronde valley cannot af ford to pass by. In the first place we should have an exhibit of our fruit In Portland along with other fruit ex hibits at the meeting of the Oregon Horticultural society, the first four days In December. Twenty of the best boxes of apples will then be displayed In the window of the largest depart ment store in the world, for two days on Sixth avenue, New York city. From there these 20 boxes of apples mill be presented to King Edward of England, and Emperor Wllhchn of Germany. The Commercial club of Portland have made ail the necesxary arrangements and It Is worthy of the co-operation of the entire state. It la safe to say that no similar 20 boxes of Oregon fruit will ever bo presented to as many hundreds of thousand of people. There Is no reason why the , Grande Rpnde valley should not con tribute her share. However, If we were not so fortunate as to realize our fullest expectations, an exhibit at Port land would be beneficial to our county. . I,.. Several memoers of the legislature from eastern Oregon will endeavor to secure the passage of a bill to provide for a bounty on coyote scalps. This wits law for several years, and was so basely ubused that the people de manded its repeal. There may be some Justice In the demand, If the graft features can be eliminated. Oregon unquestionably paid several thousand dollars for coyote scalps that were killed In adjoining stutes when the former law was effective. m'i - Aberdeen, Wash., is about to buy a 10-acre tract of land 15 miles distant from the city, , for . park ' purposes. Dnbney Hill provides an exceptionally fine view of the harbor. . i , . .

The enormous amount of mall that goes Into Wallowa county dally Is one criterion of the great amount of busi ness being done since the advent of the railroad. Today there was only 800 pounds for Wallowa county towns, but It frequently amounts to J000 pounds or more. There Is a veritable boom on in that section of Oregon. Naturally enough, the first few weeks of train service see more travel than normal on ac count of the novelty of the thing. But there Is less regret at visiting Wal lowa today than before the railroad's development with the result that, the present train accommodations' are taxed dally- The express and baggage cars, each way, are filled to the limit with the great total of baggage, ex press and mall. The two coaches sel dom leave or arrive .without a full quota of passengers. It Is easily evi dent from present Indications that in a few months, er by spring at the lat est, the O. R. & N. will have to give additional accommodations on Its pas senger trains. MASONIC INITIATION. YiisKIng Mcmlier From Valley J.odj.ve . Expected to lie Present.
