News Summary.
At Lebanon the hop growers have
agreed to pay only twenty-five cents
per box to pickers this year, on ac
count of the extremely low prices pre
vailing. It is thought Chinamen can
be induced to pick at that price.
The hotel at Huntington is nearing
completion, tae plasterers being now
at work on the structure. The north
ern Pacific Hotei company are ready
to take the building immediately upon
its finishing. This company is said to
be running 250 hotels west of Omaha.
A Walla Walla exchange says: As
harvesting proceeds a better quality
than was even expected, was threshed
out. The Fife wheat, sewed for the
first tiaae, exceeds the most sanguine
expectations, and far surpasses that of
Minnesota aod Dakota in size, quality
and appearance
it is now announced that the Ca.ua
5ian Pacific will be completed m six
weeks. Thus another steel band links
the Atlantic to the Pacific. When the
road is built and immigrants began to
pour in, we will, undoubtedly, see the
Indian forced iato reservations only at
the point of the bayonet as on this
side of the line.
A niagnifroemt e' railroad bridge
spanning the Ohio river between
Kvansville, Indiana and Henderson
$vcntncky, was completed and formally

and Nashville and between St. Louis
and Nashville and the south is mate
rially reduced. The bridge is 3680
feet foots, with a trestle approach of
diroe and a half miles on the Indiana

Salem Statesmen: Work on the

machinery is expected to arrive in a
few days from the East, and the mill
will be in running order in time to

Kx-(iovernor Chadwick was in town
yesterday, having come up from Gal
ice trrevk, where he spends much time
vatrhin j operations at the Big Vank
mine, in which he has a large interest.
Govcr'.ii.ir Chadwick thinks the valua
ble mineral springs and the grand and
beautiful scenery of southern Oregon
should attract greater attention from
pleasure and health seekers than they
now receive. Ashland Tidings.
On Wednesday thirteen car-1 ads of
cattle were shipped from Pendleton to
Chicago. They go via the Oregon
Short Line and Union Pacific. This
is the third shipment during the pres
ent season, and the cattle, owing to the
superior accommodation for feeding
and watering by this route, arrived at
their destination in splendid condition.
The two former shipments were made
at a profit, and the business promises
to grow to large proportions.
Independence "West Side:" Ware
houses all over the country are being
repaired and refitted to receive this
year's crop. Most of them have been
mptied of last year's crop, although
there is still some wheat held in store
for an advance. The Independence
warehouses will probably all be run by
their former managers and will accom
modate several hundred thousand
bushels of grain. It is thought that
a larger amount of grain will be stored
in this city this year than ever before.
Mr. Shelly of Independence has a
very unfortunate nose, says the "West
Side." When a boy he broke it while
playing ball. A few years later he was
thrown from a horse and broke it
again. On Tuesday evening his two
year old child, whom he was holding
on his lap, hit it a blow with his head
breaking it the third time. Mr. Shelly
has concluded to give the unfortunate
nose another chance, and now he has
it ornamented with strips of court plas-

Oregon's Memorial Stoaa-
At the last session of the legislature
the sum of $2,000 was appropriated
for a memorial stone from this state to
be placed in the Washington monu
ment, in a niche left for that purpose,
says the News, and the contract for
executing this work was left to Frank
Woods, of Albany. He has been en
gaged upon the stone for some time,
and expects to have the stone comple
ted by August 1 st. Although several
states have expended much more than
Oregon for a memorial stone, it is sta
ted that none yet sent from any state
will surpass this one when completed.
It is to consist of three kinds of
Oregon stone. The stone itself is a
brown sandstone bearing on its face a
landscape cantaining the coat of arms
! of the state surronnded by fruits and
i tiowers, the whole enclosed with a
j raised moulding. The stairs surroun
j ding the state shield are to be of a
j greenish granite set into the sandstone
; u;id the snow capped mountains are to
be represented by white marble, also
set in brown sandstone.
The first salmon of the season were
caught on the Coquelle last week. If
those caught are a sample of the sea
sons run, says the Marshfield News,
the canneries will be supplied with a
good quality of fish, as they are large
and fat. The sea lions are not so nu
merous at the entrance to the river as
formerly, from the fact that they have
been driven off and their numbers so
diminished by hunters; hence we may
look for a big run of salmon this fall.
Salem Statesman: This city has
been visited by F. H. Hausman, who
represents the firm of Hausman,
Kufekc & Co., one of the largest flour
commission houses on the Pacific coast
and in Liverpool. A Statesman re
porter asked him in regard to the
prospects in wheat prices for the next
year, and was told that there was no
promise for better prices for this year,
as the amount of grain in the field
added to the immense surplus of 1884
will more than supply any demand,
and leave plenty in the market. He
prophesied that before many seasons,
instead of shipping the raw wheat from
this coutry, that it would all be sent
out in the shape of flour.
