There are hundreds of well-to-do people in Clackamas County who contemplate, at some time in the near future, purchasing a home in or near Oregon City.

Tim fruit growers of Yamhill county have formed a Fruit Growers' Shipping Assosiution, a means of self-protection that the fruit growers of this county should adopt.

Tub Cliino sugar factory, the largest factory and refinery in the United States, was started on the 3d at Cliino, Cal. With this season's addition to the plant, made at a cost of f'.'.iO.OOO, the factory will use 1000 tons of heels per day and its daily output of refined sugar will be HO tons. The Chicago 1'raitU Farmer says that many . wool growers in the West are holding firmly to their season's clip, be lieving that belter days and better prices are coming. There is unquestionably, adds the Farmer, a brighter feeling in the buying centers, and the market has been characterized by heavy trading and an actual advance of from ' to 1 cent a pound. Evidences continue to develope of im provement in European trade, the re ports to London banks and discount houses showiiiK tliat, instead of in creased stagnation, trade and business have greatly revived and that cheap money is again stimulating business. The low rate of foreign exchange baa pnt a stop to gold exportation to Europe, which indicates that also on this side of the Atlantic the ebb tide of adversity is taming into the flood of pronperity.

Tub bulge in corn, owing to the drouth and the steadily decreasing price of wheat, draws attention lo the fact that only twice in 32 ears has corn sold on the Board of Trade at Chicauo, for more money than wheat. This occurred Au gust 2; No. 2 yollow corn sold at 51 cents, while sales of No. 2 hard wheat were made at 50 J' cents. The 200 Catholic pilgrims who re cently mado a visit to the shrine of Our Lady of Gtiadulupe at the City of Mexi co to oil'nr up prayers for rain, arrived at Durango, Mux., on the 2d. On the day following their prayers the heaviest rain in four years fell throughout the state, and many of the pilgrims will be kept busy for some time to come repair ing the dummies done to their ranch properties by the overflows. This should make the professional rainmakers ashamed. Circumstantial evidence points to the murder of Charles Gloyslein on July 27th by the anarchist wing of the popu list party of Spokane county, Wash. It seems that he had Incurred the en mity of a branch of the party, on ac count of his zeal as a republican, and he had been hung in efllgy and repeat edly warned by kuklux methods to leave the country . It Is now supposed that his enemies have carried into exe cution their threats of murder if he failed to comply with their demands. As an evidence of this result, his hat was found, after his disappearance, rid died with bullets and covered with blood. Our trade relations with Europe, in cluding the shipments of gold, are en couraging, and an unmistakable index of our business solidity as a nation, rur the year ending June, 1894, our exerts of merchandise were SJ2,111,2S0, a total never before reached except in 1881, 18!tl and 1802. The Importations of free and dutiable merchandise fell oil' from 8ti0.-10O,922 in 18U3 to G54,835.873 in 1804. The imports in lfKKI exceeded the exports $18,735,728, while in 18!4 the exports exceeded the imports by the handsome sum of $237 ,27.1,407. This is an unusual showing, for only in 1878, 1879 and 1881 have the exports ex- ceeded the imports in a like degree. In the great grain exporting year, 1892. when the exports exceeded $1,000,000,000 the balance of trade in favor of this country at the end of the year was only 202.875,680. A look at the gold and silver movements reveals the interesting fact that the gold export of the year exceeded the imports only t 4,5S5,03, as compared with an excess of exports of irold in 1893 of IS7.500.4fi3. For the 12 months the excess of silver exports over imports wa $37,168,438. as compared with an excess of $17,541,087 during the year ending June, 18! '3. The country is all right.

The alliance of a clique of democratic sen ators with the sugar trust to frustrate legislation in the interest of the musses is one of the most disreputable incidents in national legislation. The ell'irt of the reformers is now to pusli through separate bills placing barbed wire, coal, iron ore and sugar on the free list The attention which the Southern I'acilic cabal is now receiving, reminds us of the grandly, sweetly soiemn man ner in which Senator Stanford, the head of the robber band that killed and de spoiled the settlers of Mussel Sloigh, was expedited to heaven by Christian song, furved prayer in tho name of the Great Redeemer, and unctions sermon izing extolling his virtues. One of the fruits of the deviltry of millionaire anar chists such as he was the derailment of a passenger train by fiendish, disap pointed strikers on the Baltimore A Ohio by which 24 human souls were wafted lo the other world.

Tho largest amount of jowelry known to bo iu a singlu gravo was buried in Greenwood cemetery several years ago. The undertaker who had charge of the funeral protested against it, but was severely snubbed for his interference. The family had its way and in that grave is buried fully 5,000 worth of tliumoiids, with which the body was decked when prepared for burial. Some times families who desire to bury their dead in tho clothing worn in life in evening or wedding dresses, for in stance substitute less costly imitations for the jowelry worn in life, partly from motives of thrift and partly from a superstitions fear that anything taken off a body when it is ready for tho tomb will bring ill luck to future wearers.

Ill one of the public schools of this city is a bright eyed lad of 15 years known us Fred Gould. No oiio to look at him would over dreum how near ho came to being tho favorite, nephew of the Into wiza-d of Wall street or what a petty trick of fortune it was that cheated him out of it million or two. Fred, whose full linnio is Jay Fred erick Gould, is the son of Abrnm Gould of St. Louis, the only brother of Jay Gould. Auram is a railroad man iu the employ of the Texas and Pacific and Misonri Pacific, Ho never traded on his relationship to tho millionaire, so that he is little known outsido his ini mediate circle of railroad acquaintances. Fred first saw tho light of day in St Louis. The happy father notified his brother in wall street thut he had a sou and heir, and Jay, iu a spasm of fra ternal feeling, asked that the child should he christened Juy Gould, Jr., and promised thut be would do some thing handsome for his namesake. Tho father detested the junior, which he thought his hoy would hove to write after his name for a good many yours, so ho compromised by calling the boy Jay I' redenck. The lad was left motherless at an early age, but lie received a mother a care from the wife of Captain Austin of the Pacific Mail company, who practically adopted the boy. Jay Frederick was brought to Oakland, where he lived un til the Austins moved to this city. ' Re cently the captain died at Panama, but the widow lives here and sends the boy to school. The boy has tho Gould fea tures and complexion. He is very slow in his movements and iu his speech, but he inherits the business sagacity of his uncle, as ho generally gets the better of any of his playmates in a trade. He also shows a shrewdness beyond his years in purchasing any nrticles. When his uncle died, Mrs. Austin was very anxious to learn whether the millionaire had done anything for his nephew. She knew that Jay had been wroth because the father had not follow ed his instructions in naming the boy, but she thought the millionaire might hnve relented Tho will showed that he gave Abram $25,000, but there was ab solutely no mention of the little boy whose middle name knocked him out of a chance of a fortune.
