At Tendleton, Or., there i on foot s
plan for the foimation ot what will be
called the i'acilio Northwest I'roducers'
Assooiation, whith will before long
make itself a sltong factor in the in
dustrial life ot this section. Thus
far, the metnlershtn socured consists
only ot farmers and grain prodticois,
but it is hoped that the wool men and
sheep-breeders will come in. The
members sign the following agreemont:
We, the undorsii;nivl prOiluiHra of

which we produce; and to further pro
vide ourselves with a plttce to iuHt

oouimunictttion with the consumers ol
the world; and to unite ourselves iu
one grand body and to promote har
mony and woik for the genets! welfaie
ot the community at laige, and tot the
producer."
The association will In no manner
touch the mercantile portion ot the
business ot the community, but will
exist solely for the purpose ot ena
bling the producers of wheat, wool and
livestock to keep more closely in touch
with the markets of the world, and to
the more intelligently handle them. It
will be the paitioular tenet ol the asso
ciation that theie shall be no politics
in the conduct of the affairs. It ia
less than 10 days since the effort began
to form the association, and alieady
there are on the lists of prospective
metubeis 153 farmers, wheat-growers,
and among them some of the most
prouiineut and soluleat of the North

Survived the Great Flood.
There were others who survived the
flood besides Noah snd his family,
thinks Peter Johnson, sn intelligent
Aiaskan Indian, who is preparing to
rtte a book in defense of lia theory.
Peter has been in Poitland for nearly a
month on business connected with the
disposal of a quarts mine st Johnson's
inlet, on the Alaskan coast, snd he has
succeeded In unloading it on a com
pany of Americans for the neat sum ot
(20,000. Fart of this he intends to
spend in obtaining data for his pro
posed work, which will treat on Alaskan
tradition and contain half-tone photos
of the higher mountains which the
Aleuts of 4,000 years ago ascended white
the wateis in the Far East were gradu
ally raising the ark. He feels conn
dent that he can prove to the world
that a goodly family of his forefathers
did keep high and dry, and afterwards
lived to people that portion of the
earth near the north pole with Esqui
maux and Alaskan Indians, who have
written s history ot the sffaii ou their

Klondike Cold Yield.

Exemptions and evasions will give
about donble that amount, as the pro
duction of the territory for the year

both night and day, that wheat has
not yet made any appreciable growth,

OPPORTUNITIES IN PORTO RICO
Koaia fe Yt Mea t Kalarprls and
Kiigartjr.
Washington, May 9. Owing to the
large number of inquiries that have
been received by the members ot the
insular commission since thelt recent
letnrn liom Porto Klco, Oeneral Hub
ert P. Kennedy hits prepared s state,
uient as to the resources snd conditions
in Porto Itloo, which he thinks will
cover the points upon which the great
est in tercet has boon manifested. Con
cerning the people themselves, Ounontl
Kenedy says:
"There can scarcely be found on the
globe a more hospitable and warm
h'artod people than those of Porto
Uieo. They aie in full sympathy with
American institutions. There Is a
great deal ot poverty In the island, as
it is understood In the United Stales.
That Is, the people live in flimsilv
Constructed huts, have few clothes mid
still lees of ready money, but, owing to
the iKiuuty ol nature around them,
they can live itli little work and tow
worldly good and still not suffer from
cither cohl oi hunger. The stories of
starvation upon the Island are baseless
fabrications.
"While the richer classes live well
in beautifully appointed homes and
have been, (or the most part, educated
abroad, so that they can seak Knglsh,
the percentage of illiteracy among the
poorer classes is very high, teaching 90
per cent, but Ibis Is laigely due to the
fact that there are no schools worthy
the name outside of the largest towns,
or, inileoj, one might say, In the whole
island.
"As to agricultural opportunities, I
should say that not one-fourth ot the
land Is tinder cultivation, and thous
ands of acres yet remain to be given
over to husbandry. Lauds are held at
good prices, owing to the promise of
an i it tl u x of people fioiu the United
States. Still, there Is opportunity for
many thousands ot persons who really
wish to engage In agtlculture In the
island. That there aie great oppoi tun
ities ill Porto Klco is unquestionable.
To young men desiring to seek per
manent homes and who have s good
stock of energy and enteiptise, Porto
Uieo offers great Inducements. But 1
would discourage the simple adventurer
who expects to leap a quick snd un
earned reward.
"The opportunities for stock-raising,
It appears to me, are superior to
those in almost any putt of the United
State, and this without dispaiagvuieut
to our own country."
FRANCE PRESSES CHINA. L
Demands Cuneaaalnns fur Mlaalonnra
Outrag-vs.
Peking, May 0. The French minis
ter, M. Pichon, bus demanded mining
concessions to the value of 1,300.000
tuula in the province ot ttxochuan, one
of the largest in China, and traversed
by the Yang-tse-Kiang, as Indemnity
for the recent imprisonment of a
French missionary. The demand is
considered exorbitant. Ihu Chinese
say that the existing conditions ol re
bellion are not due to any laok of en
ergy on the part of the government,
which has Irequnutly consulted the
French minister regarding the best
means of obtaining the Ireedom of the
priests in question.
According to advices from Hankow,
capital of the province of Hoo Poo, the
ftussiuiis contemplate Inking definite
action with reference to property now
owned by British subjects In the Itus
siun Janlino concession. The Kussian
consul refiisos to leOognixo the titles ol
the claimants. The affair threatens to
interfere seriously with the Peklng
Hankow railroad project, and the dis
missal of the iiussian nfllcial is con
siderud to be the only remedy.
