Ed ward Oldendorff. a son of the late E. Oldendorff, formerly a Portland boy, but for the past 10 years a'resldent of Buenos Ayres, Argentine Republic, Is visiting: this city. He Is much Impressed -with the chances and Improvements In Port land since he left, but as a resident of a city of considerably over a million inhabitants) with all modern improve ments in the wny of paving:, sewering, lighting, etc.. he feels in no danger of getting lost here. "When asked what kind of a climate they have in Buenos Ayres, he said some idea could be formed of it from the fact that doing his 10 years residence there he had never used an umbrella. He did not say whether there was as much of a tendency to look upon umbrellas as common property there as there is here. Mr. Oldendorff, as becomes a resident of a very cosmo politan city, speaks German, French, Spanish and Italian, in addition to Eng lish, but does his thinking In English. Not Entirelt a Failure. The crop of Italian prunes in this section will be small this season, but there will be plenty of prunes for all that. One orchardlst near Dundee, who has a lot of French and Silver prunes, has had to go to consider able expense to have them thinned out. Another orchardlst there was figuring on shipping some 10 tons of a long-Keeping variety of prunes to Nome, but when he found that the freight would be $40 per ton, and the length of the passage un certain, he gave up the idea. Professor R. K. Warren, who had a full crop of Italian prunes on his orchard in Clarke County, Washington, last year, while his neighbors had none, finds a strip of trees right through his orchard will bear a full crop, this year, while the remainder are bare. Six o'clock Movement. The G o'clock closing movement in Portland seems to be gaining In strength and Interest every day. and the clerks who are released from duty even' night at 6 realize the value of their evenings and are very enthu siastic in their efforts to preserve for themselves this right and so far as pos sible to secure It for others. The follow ing labor unions have Indorsed the G o'clock movement: Boilermakers and Iron Shipbuilders, Bricklayers Interna ti:ril Union. No. 1: Horseshoers Union: Amalgamated Sheet Metal Workers; the Paper, Painters and Decorators Union. The following fraternal orders have thus far indorsed the movement: Woodmen of the World, Prosperity CLimp, No. 293; Lincoln-Garfield Post, No. 3. "Diiaxtv on the Sumner. C. I. Dillon, tho well known commissary-sergeant of the Second Oregon Volunteers, who has recently been In the transport, service of the Government, has been assigned to the Sumner, which will sail from San Fran cisco, July 1G. Mr. Dillon will meet all of the Oreron soldiers at the other end of his voyage across the Pacific and -when he was visiting hero n short time ago was charged with numerous mesages from the home folks. As his first voyago will be on the 16th of this month there will be but little time to communicate to him a message for those in Manila, and par ents will doubtless find it more convenient to catch Mr. Dillon on one of the return voyages.

Wili, Visit Ireland. P. W. Stewart, who has been a letter-carrier at the Port land postoffice, leaves for New York this even'ng, to sail from there on the 24th on a visit to his parents in Londonderry, Ireland, whom he has not seen for 1G years. His brother. Dr. Samuel Stewart, of Ontario, Canada, who has not seen his parents for 2G years, will Join him In Chicago, and go home with him. After visiting their parents, they will probably cross over to Scotland, where the family came from, to visit relatives there. Mrs. Stewart was to have accompanied her husband, but was unable to go on ac count of the sickness of her parents. Mr. Stewart has been granted a 90 days leave of absence. Fined for Worshiping His Ancestor. Joseph Backus, of The Dalles, charged with furnishing liquor to Indians, has been sentenced by Judge Bollinger to pay a fine of SJOO and to be imprisoned in Wasco County jail for 60 days. Joseph is said to be a descendant of old Bacchus, and his bacchanalian habits go to show that this supposition is correct. He was having libations on the shrine of his ancestor, July 4, and felt so happy that he wrrted to make every one else hap py, rnd consequently furnished whisky to quench the never-dying thirst of some Indians, not pausing to think that ho was violating the law. On this account he was let off with the minimum pen s' ty. Hops in Good Condition. A hop dealer who has just returned from a trip through the hop fields of Polk and Marlon Counties, rop'orts that those fields and the Valley generally give promise of a heavy crop. The vines are looking fine and are just beginning to burr out. There are fewer lice than usual at this time of year and they really amount to but lit tle, but all the prominent growers are spraying as usual, because of the rank growth of suckers, which being snaded are taken possession of by the lice and it is not intended to allow them to got a good start. Special Coast Trip Tomorrow Steam er T. J. Potter will leave Ash-street dock sharp at 1 o'clock, Saturday afternoon, direct for Astoria, and Ilwaco, making no stops at way landings.

Thompson went to "a "merry-go-round" at Grand avenue and Madison Btreet last evening and seized 25 bicycles, which he sent to the Courthouse. Bicyclists who have not paid the tax may have gained the impression that because of the suit which was filed to test the constitution ality of the law they will not be com pelled to pay. This is wrong. The law Is good until the courts hold to the con trary, and the Sheriff must continue to enforce it. The Sheriff cannot prosuppose that the courts will hold the law to he unconstitutional. The suit may not be finally determined for six months or a year, and provided the court sustains the law, and the Sheriff had not in the mean time collected the tax, he could not do it jslx months or a year hence I position between them, to strike a balance Civil SEnviCB Examination.

Cannon Into the- Scrap Heap. About t 1200 tons of condemned guns and gun carriages are being brought to Portland from Fort Stevens and Fort Canby, hav ing been purchased by Friedman Bros., of this city, who will put the ma terial to various uses. The ordnance has been a portion of tho defenses of these forts since 1862 and the heavy Iron beams forming tho carriages weigh about 1200 pounds each. They are well preserved from tho oxidizing Influences of salt air, by oft-repeated coats of paint. Tne ma terial is being piled up at the corner of Sixth and Everett streets, where it at tracts considerable attention. The pur chasing firm paid Uncle Sam $7516 for it. Incorporations. Articles of incorpora tion of the Colllns-Preston-Wllson Com pany were filed in the County Clerk's of fice yesterday. The object of the cor poration Is to manufacture and sell all kinds of harness and saddlery. The cap ital stock Is $20,000; Incorporators, C. B. Collins, William Preston and W. E. Wil son. Articles of incorporation were filed of the Washington Company. The Incor porators are: Fred B. Morris, W. H. Hurlburt and R. E. Moody; capital stock, $100,000. The objects announced are to contract for, buy and sell securities and negotiable bonds, notes, real estate, mort gages, etc Motherless Twin Babes. Motherless twin girl babes, passing through Port land to their future home In Eostorn Oregon, attracted much attention at the Union Depot yesterday morning. They were born January 4. 1900, at Grant's Pass, and their mother died giving them birth. Their names are Orpha and Ola Peckenpaugh. For flvo months they were with a family at Silverton, but a perma nent home has been found for them in Hardman, about twenty miles from Hepp ner. Mrs. Mary S. Thompson, who is president of the W. C. T. U of that place, takes both of them. Charged With Threatening to Kill. A badly complicated row came near being aired in the Municipal Court yester- .day, in the arrest of J. F. Hox, charged by Time Culberson with threatening to kill. Ha was being held to have a hear ing on why he should not give bonds to keep tho peace, but waived an investiga tion in the lower court and gave the bonds. The Culberson girl states that Hox has become so Infatuated with her that he will not permit her a moment's peace, and threatens violence if she re fuses his attention. Granite for thb Fountain. A score or more of orders of granito of various sizes for the D. P. Thompson fountain have been deposited on Main street and workmen yesterday commenced work on the excavation for the foundation of the structure. The granite Is of the black and white variety and is of fine grain. Four of the cases contain the drinking troughs for horses and two of them contain very large blocks, probably the pedestal for the bronze elk, which is to ornament the fountain. House Torn Down. A house at Sev enth and Salmon, belonging to the Flelschner estate, is being torn down and many inquiries are being made as to what kind of a structure Is to be erected on tho site. It is understood that the house Is being torn down because the foundation had settled, and it was not worth while to go to the expense of put ting the matter Tight. Tho ground will be left In this condition for the present. Not Arraigned. Jr.mes L. Warren, charged with the murder of Mate Kirk five months ago, was not arraigned in the Municipal Court yesterday. It will be a few days before the District Attorney is ready to take the case up in court, as much work is involved in getting evidence ready. Warron is as secretive as ever. To the police officers he still presents the same calm front, admitting nothing and being reserved in his conversation.

Business Men's Fine 35c Lunch at Allsky's Winter Garden Cafe, from 11:30 to 2 P. M. Business Men Lunch at the Allsky's Winter Garden Cafe, Third 'imd Morri Not the ordinary "good enough" kind, but the very best Not the cheap, but rather the most costly I Chlckering KIMBALL ORGANS EILERS Piano House 107 First St JTORTH OF "WASHINGTON Presidency. Its approval was rather of the course of Groyer Cleveland in that office, to which Mr. McKlnley had been much In antagonism. This was not en tire approval, for President Cleveland had done acts which it did not sanction; but It held his administration to have been on the whole a good one, and especially it had admired that policy on his part a which McKlnley was most in antagonism, the policy as regards the customs revenue of tho Government. Yet the Herald then felt it to bo the dictate of enlightened patriotism to support McKlnley for the Presidency. Why? Because a new issue in public affairs had arisen which took prominence and precedence over every other, and had compelled the supporters of McKlnley himself to dwell upon It and to rely upon It In the canvass more than any other. On this Issue the Demo crats were utterly, totally, and, to our mind, even absurdly wrong. The present Presidential contest has come. The real point at issue is, Do the Democrats believe In freo silver coin age at the ratio of 16 to 1? They affirm that they do, and they appeal to the public for support on this basis. Tho Herald can accord no such support. It believes freo silver to be now, as it has always been since it was made a party shibboleth, a heresy, and to be relieved from being a pestilent heresy at present If there is any such relief only because it is an outworn issue. The Democrats themselves have to take a step toward conceding that fact by subordinating it in their platform, but this ostrlchllke raanoeuvcr should deceive no intelligent man. The real point Is, Does the Demo cratic party indorse and sustain tho doc trine of free sliver? It does, and It in dorses and sustains it explicitly and em phatically in terms, and in its most ob noxious form of a 16-to-l ratio. The pretext that, because it places something else before It in that docu ment, it Is any the less there does not rise above tho range of puerility. It Is simply a politician's trick, and as such must be accounted. Wo have confidence that none of the Herald's readers who are familiar with the attitude of this paper on public questions has ever for a moment thought that it could be misled by such infantile strategy. It was this doctrine of free silver that brought Will iam J. Bryan out of comparative obscur ity into prominence; it Is this which keeps him there. Here is the full story of "Bryan and free silver, or, rather, of freo sliver and Bryan, for out of the doctrine came the candidate: The Herald, therefore, cannot support Bryan for tho Presidency. That action on its part is no more to bo thought of now than it was four years ago. Will it support McKlnley? We answer yes. The Herald Is a practical paper. It be lieves in exerting the influence it has among its hundreds of thousands of read ers for other than Ideal for practical good. It hopes that it aspires to the best always, but when the best cannot be attained, it feels that there is a duty in striving for tho best attainable. It belfeves the election of McKlnley to be the best result practicable of achieve ment in the coming Presidential contest. It is not unconscious of the faults of President McKlnley in office; it has fre quently pointed them out. It regrets that they could not have been avoided in his first term of service; It hopes that they will be Improved upon In that second term of service which wo have little doubt, if he lives, is awaiting him. In' the meantime, while we have to confess that In McKlnley are not realized our own ideals for the Presidency, we have no misgivings as to our duty to sup port him In the present election. " But "Were They Black BnnsT McMlnnville Transcript. An item appeared In The Oregonlan some days ago regarding black bass, in which it was stated that a few of that choice fish had been taken in the Wil lamette near Salem, but no further down the river. Unless somebody Is terribly mistaken this is an error, for several parties have during the past Spring in formed a reporter that bass have been caught in lofge numbers from the dead water of the Willamette in tho eastern part of this county. ALISKY WINTER-GARDEN CAFE The immense crowds of business men who enjoy the elegant lunch served from ll:30 to 2 P. M. is self-evident that it is just what is wanted, added to which is a special 25-cent cold lunch. The service Is now perfection no long waits. The grand Crown piano concert, with its Sousa marches, imitations, etc., is an enjoyable feature during the lunch. The 25 new electric fans make things comfortable, but oh. the arrival of the large disc fan and motor from New York, will perfect the temperature to a degree of coolness that will indeed make a Winter garden in Summer time. The management are sparing no money to hasten and perfect the ventilating system. This change In putting In this improved machinery will cost over $1000. As soon as completed, the grill will be reopened, and the choicest broils, fries and special dishes will be obtainable at popular prices. The lovers of Pabst Milwaukee beer throng tho Gar den each evening, and six barkeepers are kepi busy keeping pace with the de mands for this famous beverage and fancy drinks, while the orchestra enter tains with a choice selection of music, making the Winter garden tho popular resort of Portland. i "t f -Trr XorthrrcBt Military Transfer.
