One of the tiasl-lnfonned strawberry growers near Portland said yesterday: "Tlie strawberry aiarket is as low as It -nill get this sea eon. Good fresh stock will not be sold ior less than 4 cents wholesale. The grow ers have made a. stand on that price. The new cannery offers to pay 3 to 34, cents POT counted bOX. SO the mnrlrnt -oro cleaned up cf all the surplus. The good canning berries are now pact their prime. The popular "HTiteons will be out of the market in less than a week, and the name can be said of the ever favorite Clark's seedling. None could be bought on the market yesterday morning, unless the price offered was over 4 cents. The growers had all the Clark orders they could fill, and not enough borrieF. The Magoon will b at its best in a few days. The season usually lasts a month, and will end in (about a week. There txe only about two-thirds as many growers on the mar ket as last year. Those that come to Port land havo small loads." Pioneer Engineer Dead. William !. Button, a pioneer of '49 and the first lo comotive engineer to come to Oregon, died at Good Samaritan Hospital at 4 o'clock yesterday morning.

Chamber of Commerce building, at which all sub committees will be announced. Already $3000 has been subscribed towards mak ing this patriotic move a success, and money is still coming In, so that the fund prohably will reach upwards of $4000. Never before has there been such good prospects for a grand celebration. Tho Idea, so far as has been arranged, is to pive band concerts In three different parts of the city on the evening of the 3d. and on the Fourth to have an industrial parade In the forenoon, literary exercises In the afternoon and an illuminated pa rade in the evening, with floats, sett'ng off large set pieces- of fireworks all along the line of march. Made a New Crossing.- a force of men In the employ of the City & Suburban and Portland Traction Company worked all last night putting In a double crow ing at the Intersection of Fifth and Mor- 1 rison streets. The old ironwork was all removed, and a strong foundation of stc-el eye-beams put In, making the crossing stronger than ever before. The cement pavement will be laid today, and teams will have to be driven around the Im provement until this hardens. The cross ing Is one of the most important in the city. To Consecrate Bishop Orth.

The full programme ap pears elsewhere In this issue. Friends w 111 please take Mount Tabor car, and aek to get off at Judge Moreland's. Will Not Ask a Recount Early yes terday morning Major Storey made tho announcement that he would probably ask for a recount. Last evening he talked otherwise, saying that the reports of bad counting "were unfounded, and that wher ever ho went he found the election judges I1 extremely courteous and faithfully and honestly performing their duty. The ex tent of Rowe's majority is no doubt re sponsible for the change In his opinion re garding the honesty of the Judges. Another Hold - Up. Fred Simonton, who resides at 626 Belmont street, was held up near the corner of East Thir teenth and Belmont streets last night at 11.30 and robbed of 522 and a gold watch. There was but one robber In sight, and he slipped out from behind a tree as Mr. Simonton was going by. Then, covering his victim with a revolver, he ordered him to "hand over his valuables. The out law wore no mask, but selected a dark portion of the street for his deed. Lowest Excursion Rates to the East.

George Stat ler, an employe In Benson's logging camp at Bunker Hill, was accidentally killed about 2 P. -M. Tuesday. A heavy log was being hauled out to the road by a donkey engine, -when the "butt chain," the chain with hooks attached, by which the log Is pulled, broke, and a piece of the chain with one of the hooks was hurled through the air with great force and struck Sut ler, who was acting as signal man at the time. No ono saw the chain strike him. but he was heard groaning and was found in the brueh at once, and the chain was found some 25 feet back of him. He lived only a few minutes after the acci dent. He was able to talk when picked up, and said he had been struck by the wire cable, evidently supposing that It was the cable Instead of the "butt chain" which broke. The body showed but few bruises, the chain having apparently struck him on the chest. Just below the heart, and on the arm. Statlers home was near Clatskanle. He was an unmar ried man, about 30 years of age. Should Be Sown in the Fall. J. M. Turner, of Portland, -who Is Interested In the growth of flaxseed In Eastern Oregon, says the outlook for a good crop In Mor row County is splendid this year, and that he looks for flaxralsing to become a permanent Industry there. Last year the crop did not come up to expectations, on account of the lack of moisture in tho early Summer, he says, but farmers are learning that flax can stand dry weather better than wheat: "Crops must be plant ed In tho 'Fall, however," he says, "as no dependence can be placed In Spring sowing. Nature sows its grass eeeds In the Fall, and man must follow suit, so as to take advantage of all the moisture that falls. The flax fields in the neigh borhood of lone now present a flourishing appearance, though the Spring-sown wheat in that vicinity begins to show signs ol suffering for rain. The flax will yield well, no matter how the weather turns out, which shows that it needs less mois ture than the larger grains." Runawat Bot. Portland police have been requested to keep their eyes peeled for Leslie Conger, a runaway lad of 14 years, whose home Is at Castle Rock, Wash. Leslie had evidently been reading dime novels or yellow newepapers, as he provided himself with a revolver before starting out. He wore a white cloth hat, gray coat, bib overalls and grain leather shoes when he left his parental homo to see the great world, and Is sup posed to have come to Portland. J. K. Conger, the father of the boy, is In Port land, and offers a reward for his recovery and return to the police. Mant Delicacies in Market. The fast train service between Portland and the Atlantic Coast enables the markets here to provide supplies of all kinds of Eastern delicacies in good condition. Even the tender and succulent soft-shell crab comfes all the way from Crissfield, Md., arriv ing here as lively as" a cricket, and as full of fight as ever. The market has been constantly supplied with these dain ties of late, and they find a ready sale. Frogs' legs, terrapin, etc, can be sup plied here as well as In New York, and all who can afford It can Uvo "high." Past Election Sentences. In the Mu nicipal Court yesterday Charles A. How ard was found guilty of larceny In steal ing a pair of shoes from S. L. Scott, at the Scandla House, and sentenced to Uo months In the county jail. Mike Dono van and Tom Edwards were sentenced to two weeks each for trespassing on tne proprietor of the same place. Wood al cohol and election beer are supposed to be prime causes of the trouble.

They Sustained Mayor Storey's Veto of an Ordinance One Useless Street Ordered Vacated. The meeting of the Common Council yesterday was a very pleasant one. Everybody seemed pleased that the elec tion was over, and even the Mayor, who missed his spring for re-election, was happy over the good run he made, and Jokingly asked If he could not take his chair home, so that he might sit In it as much as possible for the remainder of the month. The Mayor's veto of an ordinance au thorizing the Council to appoint an ex pert to Investigate the books of the City Treasurer and Auditor was sustained. After quite a lengthy discussion. It was decided to vacate Watson street, a short, unoponed street In the North End. Per mission was granted bicyclists to riae on a portion of the west sidewalk of Mil waukle street An Invitation was ex tended to the Councllmen-elect to be present at the next meeting of the Coun cil. Last Vote of "Solid Six.' Mayor Sjorey returned an ordinance au thorizing the Council to appoint an ex pert to Investigate tho books and ac counts of the City Treasurer and Audit or without his approval. His reason fcr this was that the charter empowered the Mayor to appoint one or more experts as often as he sees fit for this purpose, and as he has appointed William R. McKenzle to perform the services re quired, he saw no need for another ex pert and thought the money could be put to better use. Tho question being. "Shan the ordinance become a law notwith standing the veto of the Mayor?" a vote was taken an dthe veto was sustained, by ayes 5. noes . This, some one re marked, was probably the- last official action of the "solid six." Vacation of Watson Street Ordered. The matter of a petition for the vaca tion of Watson street which had been set for hearing at this time, was taken up on motion of Hanson. The street In cludes some six or seven lots, and the Hand Manufacturing Company asked to have it vacated on the ground that it had never been opened and nev would be. Every legal requirement in the matter having been complied with, and no ob jection to the vacation haxing been filed, those present who were in favor of the vacation were given permission to speak on the subject E. B. McFarland set forth that the street was of no use to any one and was not likely ever to be. The Mayor called President Jameson to the chair, and. hav ing been granted permission to address the meeting, made a strong argument In favor of the vacation of the street. R. W. Montague, representing the manu facturing company, who desired the va cation, spoke In their Interests. Baker srongly favored the vacation of tho street on the ground that it would be better to have It covered with factories than lying vacant and idle. D. M. Dunne also favored the vacatlorf. The only op position to the measure was offered by Jameson and Martin, and after quite a lengthy discussion an ordinance de claring Watson street vacated was In troduced and passed, by a vote of 7 ayes, Jameson and Martin voting no. In the matter of the petition for the vacation of Verateeg street. It was or dered that June 15 be set for hearing remonstrances. Routine nnnlnenK.

He Deplores DIssenslOBS and Pleads for Harmony. OREGON CTrr, June 8. (To the Edit or.) To correct certain inferences con tained In comments made upon an article written by me and appearing in your columns a few days ago, I ask a few lines to open up what Is properly "a closed. Incident," and to deal with a matter that Is of little public Importance, and largely personal to myself. A consider able experience in politics has made me indffferent to pftrsonal abuse, but I do wince at any suggestion that I am in viting Invidious comparisons, or posing as the only really good boy in the Fed eral brigade. The political martyr and tho political hero is very often nothing but a political demagogue. I am not called upon to explain, tho appearance of tho handsome chromo which headed my artlcple, as the most unsparing critic will hold mo guiltless of having procured its publication. That letter found Its inspiration In the defiant and jubilant boast to his political fellows of a rabid Democratic Portland politician, who ah hors imperialism and hates Republican Ism as the devil hates holy water, that the result In Portland -would be such a to make McKlnley sick and make Bryan and the Democratic politicians of the East extremely happy. The average Republican respects the slncera Populist and the sincere Demo crat but he always feels sad when any thing happens that contributes to their political happiness. The much-abused Federal office-holder has a great many human attributes, and many of the in firmities that are common to all man kind. In a political sense. hB Is simply an American citizen, who has all the rights and prerogative? of American citl zonship. The members of the Oregon delegation, from whom my appointment came, received and exacted no pledges of any kind save the Implied pledge that I would discharge the duties of tho place to the best of my abilities. They havo not attempted In any way, at any time. to dictate what political course I should pursue. The fact that In the recent elec tion the Republican ticket was regularly nominated, and that It was claimed :o have the support of the great majority of the Republicans of Multnomah Coun ty, enlisted for It the sympathy of Re publicans elsewhere. The fact that It re quired the assistance of the Democrats and Populists in the county to defeat even a portion of it tends to confirm this sentiment. And confirms me In the conclusion that I expressed in my recent letter. Republicans of the "cow coun ties" cannot be presumed to understand all of the Influences which have operated to alienate a large section of the Repub lican vote. They are Interested, how ever. In the success of Republican prin ciples, and they wish somfthing dine to end, if possible, the distracting strife which has torn the party asunder for so many years. Any man who does not realize that there is to be muslo in the next Legisla ture is the most optimistic of optimists. The suggestion contained in your lead ing editorial of this morning's issue- that the warring factions can only be paci fied and brought together by a concilia tory course is one that should be acted upen by the Republican party if It ex pects longer to do business in this state.
