Tho public dock and a locally own

font question between here and Port

mornlnir. The disposition of tho O.
Vf. P. to hold up the 2T, cent rate be
tween Oregon City and Portland In
ahown In the reported remark of
Statu Railroad Commissioner Altchl
non In Saturday morning's Orogonlan,
He Im rcwirted as follows:
"The qtn-tlon of adjusting the pas
senger tariff between Oak Grove, Mil
waukle and Portland over the Oregon
Water Power & Railway rnntpany'a
line In one of the most difficult prob
lem we have faced," said Clyde n.
Alfchlnon, a member of tho Oregon
Railroad commission, yesterday. "To
grant tho people of OoU Orovo a faro
nf in cent to Portland would ncces
sltatn. no doubt, n revlHlon of fnro be
tween nil Intermediate stations and
tho two terntlnalH, Oregon City and
Portland, since Oak drove I Hltunted
about half way between Hioko points.
However, we are Investigating tho
petition of the Oak drove people and
will endeavor to dispose of It on a
bnsls fair to nil,"
Tho foregoing points very clearly to
tho colored gentleman In tho wood
pile the determination of the O. y.
P. to maintain the "!i cent rate be
tween Oregon City and Portland, as

tion to. Rate that would build up
tho suburban towns of Mllwauklo,

until something occurs to smash tho

The friends of tho public dock nro
not unfriendly to tho Oregon City
Transportation company, but believe
that, agreements with tho other fac
tors In transportation between hero
and Portland prevents it. from giving
lower passenger niton.

OREGON STATE NEWS
The total wixd clip of Oregon this
year Is estimated at 20,noo,00 pound.
Last year tho sheep produced about
18,0oo,(oo pounds. Tho value of the
1907 clip Is approximately $3.ffi0.f00.
As a wealth producer It exceeded that
of tho previous year by about jfiO,
000. F. A. Slkes, a w ell know n wheat
rancher of Milton, Is engaged In har
vesting n section of wheat which ho
says will average fully fifty bushels
to the aero, says tho Pendleton Trib
une. Ho Is altout half through and
soys It has made fifty so far and that
the wholo section will average. This
Is one of tho best wheat crops In the
vicinity, yet there are severnl about
as good. Mr. Slkes Is harvesting with
a largo 32 horso combine.
M. II. Rankin of Portland recently
bought 4000 acres of tho best timber
land in Benton county, bringing his
holdings In that county alone up to
.10,000 acres. The now railroad will
put it In easy access of market, as
much of this virgin forest will be pen
etrated by the new road. It would
take several years for sawmills to
manufacture nil this timber Into lum
ber, but when It Is once cleared off
tho laud would be almost as valuable
for agricultural and grazing purposes
as It now Is for timber.

i
market report says, they are
crowded out by the Southern Oregon
land East Oregon product. In the
meantime they have had the cream
of the market, and have to a large
extent filled the demand. The better
; melons find a weak market
J The same Is true of cherries,
I peaches, etc., which are shipped from
i California half green, are held till
they have the appearance of ripeness
land are then retailed to willing cus
tomers in the various States at fancy
prices. These fruits ripened off the
trees are Invitingly put up, but are
devoid of flavor and practically worth
less on their merits. It Is the fact
of being first on the market that
makes sale for them. The pear is
the only fruit of the temperate zone
that ripens off the tree without losing
Its flavor.
Of course, there can be no com
plaint against the growers of South
ern California for taking advantage of
earlier season and warmer climate to
catch the first and best demand for
fruit products, and though the un
naturally ripened fruit Is of exceed
ingly poor quality, there will never
theless always be an extensive sale
for It, and a corresitondingly large ad
vantage for the early California fruit
products, both ln demand and price.
Oregon fruit growers, therefore should
bear the fact In mind, that though
they offer the public better fruit,- the
market in 'several lines has already
been materially weakened by the
early California supply, and that
they must permanently contend with
that difficulty.
The apple, however, is an exception,
In the growing of this world-favored
fruit tho advantage Is with Oregon,
where the natural conditions are pecu
liarly adapted to its successful pro
duction. Like conditions do not pre
vail In California, where the climate
Is not favorable to apple culture.
Large quantltes of Oregon apples find
a ready market in San Francisco ev
ery season.
The apple has better keeping quali
ties than any other fruit, it has va
vastly wider market, and when prop
erly grown will produce larger re
turns per acre at a great deal less
risk than the softer fruits. Oregon
apple growers have no special com
petition to contend against, as is the
case with all other fruits, and hence
the desirability of fruit growers here
devoting all their suitable land to ap
ple orchards. Other fruits will grow
successfully on a variety of soils, and
will be grown abundantly, but the
limited area of choice apple lands
would bo better devoted to the pro
duction of the "king of fruit," the
apple.

Mr. Oakley then told In simple and
c ft rt ta taniyitn ia tha otirw r.f V a
dragon fly, written a number of years
ago.
The gruba that burrowed in the mnJ
at the bottom of a little pool of stag
nant water were visited one day by
a frog which jumped In and out of the
pool to the great astonishment of the
. Krubg finally the grubs asked tho
frog where he came from and went
to, and he said "the world," which
sui prised the gruba who thought the
pool was the world. The frog cou'd
not make them understand such sim
ple things as dirt or air, for there
were no words In the grub language
Into which to translate them. That
Is briefly the story and its application
Is evident The simple tale gained
immeasurably in the manner of Rev.
Oakley's telling it, and he held tho
closest attention of his hearers to the
extreme edge of the crowd.
The singing of the gospel song
was again a feature. The singing was
directed by Rev. Linden of the Bap
tist church, and the scripture lesson
read by Rev. Landsborough of the
Presbyterian church.
POWER FOR PUMPS
AND WOOLEN MILLS
COMPLETION OF REPAIRS CAUSE
MANAGERS OF PLANTS TO
REJOICE.
Connections of the wooden flumes
of the woolen mill and city water
plant, with the steel ones through the
concrete wall of the basin was com
pleted, Saturday, and the water
turned in. The city plant discontin
ued the use of the motor at the pump
ing station Saturday night, and the
woolen mill resumed operations, Mon
day morning.
Superintendent Howell feels re
lieved from the nervous tension that
he has been under ever since the west
basin wall gave way, for the repairs
that have been made are of a per;
manent character and will last for
many years. No interruption in the
power supply Is now anticipated ex
cept for one day about the middle of
this month, when the west basin wall
is completed and everything ready to
flood the basin. Then the gates to
the city and woolen mills flumes will
be closed, the temporary wooden flume
running south to the dam disconnect
ed, and a section or two torn out, but
the major part of it will be floated out
after the basin is flooded.

THE CLACKAMAS RIVER.
By F. M. Clll.
From the Cascades verdant
fir-clad
mountains,
Flowing from ten thousand foaming
fountains.
Comes a mighty river;
Comes forth, tiimhtlntr tndslnp map.
'

Down Its rocky bedway pouring
On and on forever.
From Its bold and rocky promontories,
Lo! the sheeny sunset's golden
glories,
Robing It with splendor,
Tinging every eddy munnering
With a magic hue, a shimmering
Color, soft and tender.
Clackamas, no tyrant's chains can
bind thee!
Milldama never wholly have confined
thee,
Onward ever sweeping.
Under thy five stanch-built bridges,
Past a hundred wood-clad ridges,
Onward, never sleeping.

In thy numerous pools the trout are
playing,
Here once Kipling's foot-steps came
a-straylng,
Seeking sport In fishing;
Here may come the world's great
sages
Through the cycles of he ages.
Gaining their sportive wishing.
;3(ftg-: 4-f -i
flow on! flow on! swift and mighty
river!
Thou'rt an honor to the great good
Giver.
Flow on! flow on forever.
Flow while men their race are run

Till the world has had its Inning,
And the rocks dissever!
