M. D. Jones, of the Oregon Hop Grow
ers' Association, in a letter to the Salem
Statesman, says that a conservative
business man of that city believes that
the price of hops will go to 25 cents per
pound for a portion at least of this sea
eon's crop, and even then beer won't be
over five cents a glass. While we don't
care much about the price of beer, we
would like to see the hop growers in
clover once more. They are the boys
who have been spending money like
water during the vut year. It takes
money to run a hop ranch and if good
prices prevail for this season's" crop some
of the larger growers will expand by
making improvements looking' to the
doubling up capacity of their hop
houses,

Tuesday was a beautiful day. Early
in the morning r heavy fog waa on, but
this was dispelled by the tun before

The west side is apparently becoming
one of the chief line used by the South
ern Pacific for through freight, says the
Corvallis Times. At present about 00
care per week, loaded with grain and
other products, come np the west side
and are transferred over the Corvallis &
Eastern to the e;t side. The average
includes about 30 cars of lumber per
week, en route to San Francisco. The
use of the west side and Corvallis & East
ern is due to the fact that it costs less to
take a car from Corvallis to Albany over
the Corvalli & Eastern than across the
steel bridge at Portland.
Mr. Gus Rosenblatt mid sister, of
Portland, came up from Portland last
Saturday to visit friends and attend the

between the car and the platform, hang
ing to the handrail by one hand. Mr.
Rosenblatt sized up the situation im
mediately and grabbing the woman
around the waist, jumped off the car.
The two fell alongside the moving car,
Mr. Rosenblatt holding the woman so
she could not raise her head, which she
was trying to do, and thereby saving her
from having it struck by the car steps.

Clodhopier,
Visitors to the slate fair at Salem state
that It I once more out of the rut and
ii essentially a farmer' fair. The only
thing not essentially a farmer' i the
horse racing. But a this was "ou the
quart" we don't ee how they can kick.
The fair was excellent and everything
seemed to please. The racing was good,
the only drawback being the rain and
consequently heavy track, but the peo
ple enjoyed it nevertheless. Tuesday
was pre day and the boy turned out
In force. The livestock show is said to

Now that th wet and muddy season
ha arrived, would it be asking too much
from the city council to amend the bi
cycle ordinance and permit sidewalk
riding on streets outside ot the busy por
tion ot the city? Many ot our cltltent
ride wheel and we (peak in their be
half on this subject, If precedents go
for anything, we can point to the en pi
ta! city Walem, where bicyclist scum
to be allowed to ride on pretty much all
the aidewalks. A proper ordinance,
proierly enforced, would surely not he a
detriment to the pedestrian, nor would
the latter have to take to the streets
which are now utterly tmpaKsahle for
bicycle. The column of the WkmtSidm
areopoi' for the diHcuHsiou of this sub
ject, and the editor hope t'mt those
most interested on both sides of the
question will accept the invitation to
express their view. i ' j
Are the pcoplo going to have any light j
on the streets during the coming lung,
dark nights? The nights get rather
dark especially during the rainy waaon
when a star cannot be seen, and lUwe
belated citiseiis who are obliged to be
out on the street during the night
would welcome a little light on their
way home. We understand that there
la a difference of opinion between the
light company and the city council as to
what the proper charge is (yr lights on
the street. This difference, it seems to
us, might be adjudicated and both sides
feel satisfied wiili the result. The Wkst
Sioh doea not suppose that the city ia
able to have arc lights on the street at
this time. If this supposition it correct,
we might again supiwwte that a few In
candescent, of say 32 candle power, dis
tributed at alternate corner of, blocks
would go a long way to dispel the gloom
that hang over i ur city ou dark rainy
night. We believe that everybody will
agree with this suggestion; the question
then recur to the cost of this service,
based on the numlier of lamp used, and
also to the number of hour. Now that
the West Bioi ha brought this matter
up, let the people think a little over it
and it so disposed they might reduce
their thought to writing and tend them
in to the printer,

The rain continues today, to the in
convenience and probable loss of hop
and and prune pickers. Some hop grow
ers are offering 50 cents jair box to ob
tain pickers to keep the dry kilns in
operation. The hops are in fair condi
tion, the weather being exceptionally
cool. Mold is making very alow progress.
The prunes have cracked to some ex
tent, but are in flue condition otherwise.
Good weather must come soon, or the
damage to both prunes and hops will
undoubtedly be great, The prunedricrs
have all been kept running continuously
so far, and the product is par excellence.
The fruit is selling freely at 5 cents per

"Hop picking ia virtually over
and what remain after Saturday
night will not ho worth saving.
Mold ha comu ut lust ami all yard
are tainted with it.
"In tho Hutteville district, work
in thu yard wa completed Thurs
day, ami tho reports arc that there
were no more ho.xes than last year
hut that they will prohuhly weigh
more to tho hox this season than
last. In a few instance- yatda and
parts of yards wore left on uccount
of tho mold.
"Tin weather the past week has
Ix-en very trying on tho hop crop
and with tho alternating hot, cold
and murky weather of tho past
week no other result could inure.
"In this section we hear little
complaint of mold, yet it ia here,
and that, too, in more or Ic-m quan
tity. Samples already drawn show
a trace. Ticking will end Saturday
night in almost every yard and no
acrcago is lost.
"A sample shown us from Mt.
Angel tho past week was line. It
was a rich golden color, silky to
tho touch, with plenty of lupulin
and sci-ds and abundant aroma. It
will compuro favorably witli Sono
ma, tho celebrated California hop
district.
"No sales are reported, although
reports of 13 cent offers, and even
15 cent offers, are rife. As soon oi
tin- hop is in the halo sales will he
fully made and, judging from pres
ent outlook, Oregon growers will
not hold their crop long after it is

Last year the Oregon Hopgrowera
Association secured full coiitiol of near
ly -10,000 bales of hops, and the pi ice fell
away to a figure which hardly paid for
tjie picking. This year the association
wa unable to form a pool of 3000 bales,
and the price i soaring to old time
heights, It may lie Inferred say the
Oregonian that the rise in ho ami the
decline in the association, or the decline
In ho and the rise of the association,
had aoiuethiug iu common. Such, how
