VALLEY CROP REPORT.
Portland, - Ore ; April 18 The
weather was very favorable to the
growth .arid development of vegita
tion, and to ff-rra work. The frosts
of the past two mornings have done
no injury. Cold rains art more
liable to prove injurious than
frosts. The conespondents are un
iform in their expressions of favor
able and beneficial weather condi
tions. ' Fall and winter sown grain are
making good growth. Early spring
grain has made marked growth
during the Dast week. Plowing for
summer fallow continues. Spring
seeding is p'actically finished, The
correspondents all report a greatly
increased grain acreage as com pared
with last year. The acreage of hay
crops has also been increased. As
the water in the rivers is not expec
ted to be high in June, the hay
lands along the Columbia river
bottom are being seeded for hay.
The farmers are about four weeks
ahead in their work as compared
with last year. Corn planting con
tinues, and garden making will be
about completed this week.
Fruit prospects continue moat
excellent. V ruit bloom hug com
menced to fall in the southern
counties. Apple and quince trees
are coming into bloom. The pear,
cherry, prune and plum trees are
literally a mass of blossom, and
unless materially thinned by froRt,
hand pruning muBt ho resorted to.
There is now no doubt thnt the
March froste did injure the pench,
almond and apricot buds; to what
extent the injury extends, is yet to
he wen. Expert fruitgrower? claim,
however, that unless more injury
results, the peach, almond and ap
ricot crops will be good.

editor of the Independent, had a
little altercation last Thursday ev

change of physical demonstrations.
They wero discusbing the Cuban
proposition. Br'er Gault eeemed to
think that Br'er Atkins was "for
peace at any price" and intimated
that there were "too many traitors
in the country." Br'er Atkins or
ally resented this position, and
matters grow warmer and warmer.
Br'er Gault insinuated that ho was
a warm torpedo and Br'er Atkins
counselled peace, to no avail. Brer
Gault "warmed up to the subject
matter. Br'er Atkins remonstrated

World's Fair exhibit.
Our various soils will be sent
back with proper' analysis, statis

of all kinds and the movement will
be productive of much good to our
county and state. The eyes of eas
tern farmers who for years have
contended witn uroutti and Hood,
are turned towards the noithwest
and the Willamette' valley, where
crop failure is never known and
where nature, neuer lulls her child

Many honieseekers will vis-it the

SPAIN GIVEN THREE
DAYS TO ANSWER
She Refuses to Evacuate from
Cuba.
OUR FLEET WILL START FOR CUBA.
The War will Doubtless Commence at
Once. Thought Spain will not Back
Down now.
President McKinley yesterday sent
an ultimatum to Spain, accompan-
ing it with the concurrent con
gressional , j-esolution instructing
him to intervene to stop hostilities
and to use armed force at once, if
Spain should refuse to evacuate
fro'in Cuba.
U. S. Minister Woodford conveyed
the papers to the government and
the following message, received at
l:3o tins afternoon, explains itself:
R. Cave: Spain rejected McKinley's
ultimatum end gave Minister Wood
ford his passport. Signed Oregonian.
The next move will doubtless be
the sending of a fleet and an army
to take Cuba from the hands of
Spain. This means war, unless
something unforeseen occurs.
UNION CALL.
To the Washington county popu
lists, democrats and silver
republicans: For the purpose of
nominating a Union county-and
legislative ticket, it is recommend
ed that .each party organization
shall hold separate primaries to
elect delegates to their county con
ventions; which said tnree count;
conventions will be held at Hills
boro, Oregon, on Thursday, Mav 4,
1898. Jas. H.Sewel'l,
Clirn. Union County Com.
Hillsbiro, Apr. 9, 1898.
Chairman Wood has issued the
call for the republican county nom
inating convention The date of
primaries is set for April oOth, and
the convention on Mav 5th. This
will make the meeting come one
day later than the silver conven
tions. , '

Messrs. .Redmond & .Sappington
have purchased the Bacon stables
nd will run them in conjunction
with those on Main street. It is
probable tbb Second street barn
will be used simply tor stable pur
poses, the two corrals being easily
thrown into one. The boys are
rustlers and popular, and this will
give them sufficient business for
profit. Mr. Bacon goes to lilla-
mook to take personal charge of
the stage line.
Candidates for republican nomi
nation are working hard putting up
their fences. Since this county is
anti-Simon and the state conven
tion was controlled by little Joe,
there is much dissatisfaction pre
vailing. It has just dawned upon
many that Corbett is the logical
candidate for United States senator
under the procedure of the state
convention and many Bee what was
not admitted before, that Mr. Geer
was really the Corbett man for
Governor. In this county there is
a maiority against the Simon-Cor
bett combination and the feeling is
so strong that Corbett supporters
may find it hard to get on the re
publican ticket. It is recognized
that vour "Uncle Ben" has the har
dest fight of any to get on the tick
et and if he is beaten tor the norm
nation, it may giye the antis enough
courage to put up a new ticket
while they are at it.

The last three weeks have been of
great benefit to the farming com
munity. The major portion of the
crop is put in and the lowlands are
rapidly being cropped. Unless hard
rains come the gram will all be
sowed from a week to ten days ear
lier than usual.
Many more farmers than usual
are breeding their mares this year.
Hot several years there has not
been much of an increase in horses
and the county now affords but
four or five stallions of repute. Next
year will be a good time for a colt
show.
The house swore that it would
not concur w ith the senate, but vir
tually did so. This reminds one of
a happening which took place in
this city a year or so ago, when the
marshal ordered a man to "get out
of tow.ii at once." "I'll not do it,"
said the fellow, "but I'll walk" out
at once."
Forest Grove, April 18. John
Macrum, who left here about two
months ago for the Klondike, has
returned. He and others formed a
copartnership and. purchased . an
outfit and-provisions enough to last
them a year. 1 he treasurer of the
party, whose duty it was to pay
bills and keep an account of the
expenses, all the money being giv
en into his custody, was selected
bv a majority vote. The partv had
only one more trip ta make in or
der to get their outfit over the pass,
when the treasurer, on being asked
for some money which was needed,
aid he had' just loaned all the
money for a few hours. Mr. Ma
crum lost $200 and found it neces
sary to sell his outfit at a sacrifice
and return home. The defaulting
treasurer was formerly a student at
Stanford university. Oregonian.
