Were It not for the climatic conditions which exist here the loss of timber re suiting from fires would likely be much greater. In the territory lying between the Cascade Range and the Pacific ocean the danger of timber loss by fire la less than anvwhere else In the Urtrted 8tatea.

It Is the opinion expressed here th Governor Frank W. Benson will start for Salem the Tuesday after the prl maries. although Ills start may be de laved a day or two. Dr. R. E. Lee Stelner. Superlntenden of the Asylum, has received the follow Ing letter from Pr. Ueorge D. Culver, the Governor's physician, which set at rest whatever apprehension may have been felt for the executive's con dition: "Governor Benson Is fulfilling our prediction that he would come out of his trouble In great shape. He Is a most remarkable man physically, in that he rallies -so rapidly, and so satis factor! ly. He is quite a different look ing man from the one we knew only a few months ago. and of course he Is Impatient to return to his home state, "The Governor Is getting well. His condition Is constantly changing for the better, and at the present rate he will be able before long to accomplish all that he has been able to accomplish in the past. I waa quite amused a few days ago to receive a telephone message from reporter, who read to me a telegram he had received from one of the Oregon papers. stating that the Governor had been operated upon, his right eye removed, and that he was not expected to live. It was even more amusing today, when saw Governor Benson, because I never saw his eyes brighter. His expres sion is tnat of a man far removed fro the grave, and the papers do not know how far wide of the mark they have Deen. 'It Is most pleasing to know that Governor Benson Is doing so well, and I know that you will be glad to hear directly as to his condition. "Fraternally yours, "GEORGE T. Ci: L V E R ."

Men who have been over the country bl!eve that the Hill route wlu lead down Evans creek to Crams Paw. thence fol lowing the Rngoe. river to Its mouth, then going down the roast to Marsh field. At the month of the Siuslaw liver the road is expected to be bntlt up the valley to join the projected electric line from Portland to Eugene. This would give tonnage from the mines, the fruit sections, and the grain territory of East ern Oregon, and the line would pass through much fine timber. VICTORIA. B. C. Sept. IS. News waa brought from Pekln by the Steamer Empress of China, of an uprising In Chinese-Turkestan, where many of the shops have been burned at the Provinc ial capital. The Provincial treasurer Is missing and Is believed to have been killed, and the prisoners have all been liberated by the Inaurgents. The North China liaily News of Shanghai reports that the pardon of King Yu wel. the Chinese reformer, who fled from Pekln when the late Empress-Dowager Imprisoned the late' Emperor, and seised the government some yeara ago, and other prominent reformers, who have been fugitives with a price on their heads since then. Is being advocated by several grand councillors, and the Prince Regent will probably consent. Oreat agitation prevailed In Toklo. when the Empress of China sailed, over the alleged bribery by the pro moters of the elevated railroad for Toklo. Indignation meetings were bi Ing held.

One of the most profitable rrona here at present is alfalfa. Authorities on dairying have repeatedly told the people they could do no better than plant this stock food extensively and then buy enough cows to feed It to. The milk and butter fat will find a ready market at any creamery within shipping distance, and not less than 120 per ton can be realized in this way from the alfalfa. It is likely that a creamery will be establiehed here in the near future. Another matter that is arousing much enthusiasm at present ia the ex tension of the Umatilla project to In clude approximately 60.000 acres on the west side of the Umatilla River. The State Engineer has approved the fil ings of the Reclamation Service, and this, with the excellent showing made to the Armv engineers when they were here, leads to the belief that the under taking will be authorised. - There are still a few people who consider it necessary to "mortify the flesh" by meekly submit ting to the discomfort ? and ab solute torture of trying to keep warm by old-fashioned , heat ers, which greedily take all the coal you can crowd into them, but give out the smallest results.
