act asking that Congress call a conven
tion for proposing such an amendment to
the Constitution of the "United States.

the creation of a railroad commission
would be a step toward eliminating the
railway lobby, and that freight and pas
senger rates could be better adjusted by

having trout in his possession, pleaded
guilty and was fined $15, which he. paid.

sworn to by the defendant charging them
with the larceny of $300 from his store;
that they were brought ' to Astoria for

leges that reports of the charges against
them and of their arrest were published
in various Oregon and California papers,
thereby injuring, their reputations, and
by reason 6f the charges made by the de
fendant the pTaintlffa were in prison for-14
days and prevented from transacting busi

Times from 'Davenport, Wash., says:
The dispute over the Tracy reward of
$4100 is about to be settled without the in

many years since so many Eastern hop

their way to Oregon. The local market
is decidedly Inactive. In fact no move
ment of any kind Is expected before tho
harvesting of the crop Is well advanced.
All growers have contracted that will,
and those who have not do not intend to;
hence there will be no business until the
crop is ready for the market.

egon Hop Growers' Association, has In
spected a number of yards and finds them
clean and free from vermin.
Grower confidently assert that there will
not be a shortage of pickers. In fact,
many growers In this locality have been
obliged to refuse applicants for picking
already. No complaint has been made as
to the established price of 40 cents per
box that was fixed by the Hop Growers'
Association for picking. The shortage in
the fruit crop will make available aj great
er number of persons for the harvesting
of the hops. Mr. Win3tanley will begin
picking on Wednesday of next week.
Picking in the Llvesley yards will not be
gin until September S. and by that time
the harvesting of the crop throughout the
Valley will be general. With fair weath
er. It is expected the picking of the crop
will be finished by September 20.
Picking of Fuggles and other varieties of
early hops will begin in the Horst yards,
north of thjs city, next Monday, The crop
of early hops this year is reported light
and of poor quality. The acreage of early
bops is very light in this locality.
