General News as Gathered
From
Brief Resume of Jhe More Important Happenings of the
Week in Oregon and Elsewhere.
Succeeds Quay.
Governor Pennypacker has appointed
Attorney General Knox to the vacancy
caused 'by the death of Senator Quay.
It ii a matter of considerable surprise
that Mr. Knox Bought this position ami
was willing to resign his position in the
Cabinet to accept it. The President is
willing to accept the resignation s he
believes Knox can be of greater service
in Congress than in the Cabinet, owing
to the trust legislation which will be
brought up in the next few years.
New Postmaster for Portland.
J. W. Minto has been appointed post
master at Portland to take the place of
Bancroft, who wired bis resignation last
Tuesday, It is said that James E. Hunt
was the choice of Senator Mitchell but
be did not meet the approval of the postmaster-general.
'
Bancroft's resignation grew out of the
inspector's reports, of which three had
been made. The main point of dissatis
faction with Bancroft seems to have
been that be used money belonging to
the office, leaving I. 0. II. slips in the
till. It is also said that he had no exec
utive ability. This latter is denied by
his friends, who point to his long ser
vice with the Southern Pacific company
as proof of his possessing executive qual
ities. The new appointee, J. W. Minto, is
well known, he having held public office
more or less for many years. At the
time of bis appointment he was deputy
collector of customs at Portland.
To Destroy Union.
The Citizens' Alliance is endeavoring
to destroy Unionism in the Cripple
Creek region. Its committees have
presented the following pledge to all the
business houses :
"We, the undersigned, merchants of
the Cripple Creek district and employ
ers of help, hereby agree not to employ
help of any kind that is in any way con
cerned with the Trades Assembly of the
American Federation of Labor, or the
western federation or Miners or kin
dred organization!."
b very clerk employed in stores on
Bennett avenue, the principal street, ba-
Wags to- jome anion, out all will be re
quired to surrender their cards, accord
ing to tie agreement made today by the
employers.
Ihis is considered the most drastic
step yet taken by the Alliance since it
secured the upper hold in the district,
and its enforcement will affect 3000 men
and women now affiliated with the var
ious anions. Among the unions that
will be affected oy the new movement
are the Clerks, Cooks and W alters, Bar
tenders, Carpenters, Electricians, Train
men and Stone and Brick Masons.
The unionists assert they will fkht
the movement to a finish.
Saloon Men Fined.
On complaint of Professor Drew,
fifteen Salem saloonkeepers were ar
rested June 9 for violating the ordinanc e
against Sunday opening. Thusday vbov
appeared in the Justice Court and plead
ed guilty to the charge made against
them. A fine of $10 and costs was im
posed on each of them. It is thought
by some that the success 0! local option
in the recent election gave Professor
Drew courage to make the complaint.
Al STREAK OF ECONOMY, j
The Board of County Commissioners
of Multnomah County have suddeuly
become imbued with a spirit of eoonomy
in the administration of the Sheriff's of
fice since the election of Tom Word.
Heretofore the Sheriff has boarded the
county prisoners. The results of the
recent election opened the eyes of the
commissioners to the fact t1 at the coun
ty can rave 200 or $300 per month by
buying supplies and hiriiu a jailer and
cook. It is alao suggested by these same
men that a large sum could be saved,
not to the county, but to the Republi
cans, if the legislature will enact a law
creating the office of Tax Collector, thai
removing that work from the Sheriff's
office. .

tione regarding certain features of tne
citv, oDservatious which may be of in
terest, especially to those who contem
plate visiting the exposition.
St. Louis is in size the fourth city of
the Uoitsd States, with an estimated
population of near 700,000. The census
returns of 1900 show 675,238. The great
ness of the citv is based on its location
3.1 the heart of the Mississippi valley, in
the agricultural center of the continent.
While wealthy, prosperous and perma
nent, St. Louis is not altogether beauti
ful and up -to-date. Some parts of the
city are beautiful to look upon. There
are several beautiful parks, including
Forest park, the location of the exposi
tion. There are many fine residences,
substantial business blocks and well
kept streets. But in general the town is
minlit St. Louis bas a good deal of

a nionnloL'int, at tha thaat.ra that
"There are unexplored lauds right at
home. Why, here in St. Louis there
are alleys that the board of health has
never discovered." The audience ap
preciated the aptness of the remark.
The streets here are of all kinds and
conditions, narrow and broad,- crooked
and straight, short and long, clean and
dirty, well paved, poorly pav ed and un
pavsd. Blocks are of many sizes. The
corners are well marked, there are one
hundred numbers to each block and it is
not a ditncuit task for the average
stranger to keep his bearings.

Everyday more or fewer Germans
find their way to the While House and,
grasping the President by the hand, tell
him how much he resembles their own
dear Emperor in the fatherland, and
how glad they are to feel that after all
they are at home in Republican Amer
ica. One of the latest visitors was H.
von Kupffer, editor of the Berlin Local

lamette valley, rain is badly needed for
late crops. Fall wheat and barley are

Early sown wheat, barley and oats are
also doing fairly well, but hue grain of
all kinds is mak;ng slow growth, and
without timely rains will give unusually
light returns. The nights havn been too
cool for corn. Frosts occurred on sev
