Wtahintton count? should never
let op until it has a name equal to
that of any county in the state for
eheeeemaking, and for the excel

another thing, while we are about
it. Why should this county take

io the etate, in walnut? culture?
Yamhill now leads in this culture,
in ihe northweat, all due to iU ex
WUat walnut clube, and to the
pluck and posh of its farmers. Let
it ha remembered that Washington
county is the beet county in the
state in point of adaptafolity lor

TIME TABLE
It waa predicted that the price of
ail commodities) would drop in this
country, after the financial depres
sion, but thua far the only notice
able drop in prices;, haa been that
of labor. Butter, flour, and the
staple commodities are at the same
old figures, and butter persist in
going higher than ever. The work
ingmao, whils his wages have been
cut down, pays just as much as he
formerly did for the necessities of
life. It is held by many business
men. however, that there will be a
drop in the price of many kinds of
goods, but ss yet there is no toiler
ence.
The big fleet is on ita way to this
coast Its mission is said to be a
peaceful one, but that all depends
unon whether Japan is spoiling for
trouble. It is a good thing for this
coast, in many ways to have the
fleet on this side of the country.
Commercially, it will do us good.
The East has been getting all the
big contracts for supplies for years,
and now the coast cities will bene
fit bv the presence of so large a
fleet Again, the coast feels safer
with the big sea batteries on our
coast border. It also serves notice
-en -Japan, that the most not at
tempt to rula the Pacific.

Judge McBride, in calling a
anedal session of the Circuit
S7
Court for this county on January
2. has relieved the glut of legal
business here, and prevented the
necessity for furthsr delay. There
was a large docket here, and there
is much rejoicing among those
most interested, that ths Judge
decided to hold a special term.
Not a single run on banks in
this state has been reported since
the holiday lid came off, and not
a country bank has failed within
the state. This is creditable to
the conservative banking methods
and honesty of the country bank
ers, as well as complimentary to
the good sense and forbearance of
depositors in those banks.
Mr. Heney came up to PortUnd
lait week, but refused to say when
the land fraud cases would be tried.
After putting the Portland newspa
per men on edge, with great expec
tations, he quietly departed for
Washington: In the meantime,
Mr. Bristol has resumed his atti
tude of masterly inactivity.
Rnnators Fulton and Bourne
fared well on the Senate commit

river salmon, which the Senator
presented to members of the upper
