Roy Irvine, in his Wheeler County News, says: "It stems a bit strange that a man in the valley will work all day in the hop yards for 1 and board himself when he could demand $1.50 or $2 and bourd in the hay lields of Eastern Ore gon." The Wheeler County News says that Mr. James Richards, who left Independ ence in April and who has been working in the Hpaniflh Gulch mines, whs in Mitchell Wednesday on his ray to Grass Valley, where he has secured employ ment at $3 per day.

Livesly, of Salem, was poinoned hint Friday morning by having rough on rats mixed with their breakfast mush. How anyone can see a similarity between rough on rats and germea beats us ; and why this poison ehould be kept in handy reach of any one is another stunner. The family has recovered. Miss Maggie Macaulay, who went from this city over a year ago as a hospital tmrse for the troops in Manila, has sent to her brother, Charles Macaulay, a package of seeds, most of which are of the Mango variety. He intends to set the seeds out in (lower pots and supply the inhabitants of the county with fruit. We call attention to the advertise ment of the State Normal gclwol at Monmouth appearing in another column of this issue. The school reports a suc cessful year, with encouraging prospects for the next session. Many teachers are tuking the Normal course both f r the sake of the professional training, now pretty generally demanded, and also as the bent means of preparation for secur ing the state papers. DurinK last May an Infant child cf neighbor wan Buffering from cholera Infantum. The doctors bad given up all hopes of recovery.

A siH'dal engine and observation car came through here Monday evening bound (or Dallas by way of Monmouth. In making the switch from the Southern Pacific's main line to the motor track, the engine being large and heavy, did not respond to the sharp curve and went off the track. Alter two hour ol work, the engine was gotten back on the track agnin but too late to go through, as the occopanls of the car, being bridge inspectorsmust have daylight for their work. Tlte traiu and crew stopped here all night. The boys and girls have been playing havoc with the school house and its fur nishings of late, and the school directors are very much wrought up over the situation. Windows have been broken, school furniture broken and damaged, ink thrown on the walls of the several rooms as well as upon the blackboards, and other antics. The school board pro poses to make an example of the first person found to be unlawfully in the school building. Parents evidently do not keep very close tab on their child ren or they would know they were in mischief. This week will see many fluids of grain cut. Some early oats was heing cut the latter part of. lust week, while early wheat was not quite ready for the ma chine. In many fields the grain looks rather thin. . Whether this is owing to tho weather, insects, or other cause is not known : but some people thing that the main reason of the thinness is be cause the owner of the places were loo skimpy" with their seed when plant ing. A gentleman out tnrougn me coun try Tuesday reports that many of the fields looked as though the seed was dropped with the idea of seeing how little It would laae to go a long ways.

Farmers were heard complaining Tuesday of tho scarcity of harvest hands alleging that the reported wages being paid in the eastern part of the state was not true, but was being bliizoned forth An inducement to hands to go there in largo numbers. It is said the rouda nd traHs leading to the other side of the mountain are full of laboring men with pack on their backa, trudging to the point where they are to receive i'i er day and board, fhey will lie com- g back soon, sadder but wiser. It is understood that steps will be taken by some of the business men of this city to induce the common council to place a prohibitive license on travel ing vendors of nostrums, snide jewelry, and Other articles of merchandise which they sell upon the street. At present the license is two dollars a day. which is cheerfully paid by the itinerant, who proceeds to reap a harvest from the un sophisticated. The money thus taken away is gone for good, whereas if a license ol at least rivo dollar per day was imposed, very few fakirs would be seen here. William Fuqna, one of Polk county's contingent that went to Cape Nome a short time ago. passed through here Monday morning on the way to his home at Parkers. It is supposed that he came back for pretty much the same reason that many others (who could get back), lack of something to do aud the over- supply of men to do it. The train did Dot tarry long here and it was inipoHsible to get any news from him. He was aboard the steamer Nome City, which was drifting about on the bosom of the ocean for a number of days with a brok en propel lor, and was thankful to be alive. The publisher of the West Sjub is oU the opinion (based on experience under gone in other communities) that a paid up subscription list is tar preferable to one based on any other plan ; that 300 cash subscribers are of more value to the paper than 500, of whom but 300 pav their dues within a year. Therefore, this week the Went Sum sends out bills to those whose subscriptions have not been paid for the coming year believing its subscriber would rather be ahead than behind. The Oregon City advertising commit tee of the Hoard of Trade will submit a report at the meeting of that body to be held nest Monday night.
