CORRESPONDENCE.
M0LALLA.
The excitement over the past election
has subsided. One hears no more
political bombast on the street corners.
Work bag commenced on our new
school house, several men are engaged
there. James Smith is foreman. Tbe
old school house has been moved onto a
vacant lot and will be fitted up for a
dwelling.
Men are pawing almost daily to and
from the Ogle Creek mines. From all
reports but very littln work has been
done bo far. Judge Thorn, who has a
lease on the Russell, Pelkey and Ste
wart mine, is now in Oregon City. It Is
to be hoped that the Ogle Creek mines
will be thoroughly developed this sum
mer, but owing to our unusual late
spring work in the way nt prospecting
has been rather slow. Tbe red rock
trail, is still blocked with snow and wilt
be impassable for some time yet. Mr.
Hankins from Arlington, who has a
quarts claim on Ogle Creek, arrived here
recently and has gone to his mine not
withstanding his cabin is still snowed
under! There is several feet of snow
vet at the quaker or red rock mines.
The river route though is open and
free of snow but is a much farther and
rougher'trail than by the way of red
rock.
James 0 Dickey left here recently for

Molalla is preparing to celebrate the
glorious 4th in first class style. The
Molalla brass band ia meeting In regu
lar practice for the occasion, after being
dormant for some time. They do not
expect to try to render any very diffi
cult music as there are some beginners,
while the old members are entirely out
of practice. The principal part of the
instrumental music will be furnished
by the Molalla orchester, consisting of
six peices, three violins, a flute, cornet
and baritone. Guy Dibble, a lad only
eleven years old, plays one of the lead
ing violins and is competent of reading
difficult music. Wayne Robbim also
plays a leading violin and is advancing
rapidly. The orchestra has beeu
playing but a short time. It is nnder
the management of Prof. J. 8 Dugan, a
musician of many years experience who
was chief musician for four years during
the war of the rebellion.
R.J. Moore has commenced a new
barn which will be ready to raise it in a

Geo. Adams is the architect and fore
man.
Geo. Hungate had the misfortune to
get a fine horse badly crippled by the
horse breaking loose and running away
with a peice of board lastenea to its
halter rope. It will probably have to
be shot.

MOLALLA.
As the hop picking is drawing near
we would like to ask for space in your
valuable paper to make a few romarks
in regard to the price and the price of
picking. Mr. Rees of Aurora was in
this part a few days ago for the purpose
of contracting the coining crop at o;t
cents per pound for one year, as the
outlook for price is very bad. People
do not care to invest money in hops as
the acreage has been cut to quite an ex
tent but not enough to make a mark in
the Price as there is tons of old hops on
the market yet. and yards that are being
cultivated this season are making a good
showing for a large crop. The hop
growers of this county will not pay
more than zo cents per box for picking
this season as they can not afford to pav
the old price, it is rumored mat the
Butteville hop association will set tbe
picking price at 25 cents.
The Lowav vard is being run and will
be picked and also the Moshburger yard,
which will be about tbe extent ot the
picki. g in this vicinity this season, the
two yards above mentioned will pay 25
cents for picking. Hoi' Grower.

boarding house will he fitted up with
care and let to responsible persons, who
will furnish dusirable board at reason

Tho duto is lutur than usual, but after
consultation with interested parties it
was thought best, owing to tho back
wardness of the season, the Chautauqua
Assembly in session so near to us and
other considerations, to fix the date a
few uays later than usual. As far as
possible we wan' to make this a real old
fashionetl Methodist camp meeting
where sinners are converted and
believers sanctified. Surely there are
hundred of needy souls among us who
are longing fo' a deeper Christian ex
perience anil in thus coming together
with one accord eternity alone will
reveal the good accomplished. Let all
Methodists take a deep interest in the
camp meeting. uome, bring your
children and your neighbors especially

. There are medicines which'
change the action of organs

does not properly perform Its
work, they restore it to health. !
Such remedies are called " al

cause of certain drugs which
