CHAIR OF ELOCUTION.
A chair of elocution wasestablisluwt
by the Board of Regents, and will u
filled next Tuesday by election at tha
regular meeting of the Board.
G. W. HUNT IS DIFFICULTY.
Salt Entered Against II I in n Fart
brwi California. 1
When Q. W. Hunt left Pendleton
he went te Fort Bragg, Mendocino
county, Calif., In the Northern part of
the state, says the East Orcgonian
He expected to put through a railroad
to tho Interior. from F'ort Bragg, tap
ping the coal ml nos, running tbrouKb
the great redwood forests andeulerlnir
a rich mining country. The scheme
has thus far railed to materialize, and
Mr Hunt's friends will deeply regt
to learn that be bos met with difficul
ties. The Fort Bragg Advocate, Id a
recent Issue has the following items of
interest.
"F. McRay, of Klbeslllub, has sued
Q W Hunt for (218.65. The caw will
come up before Justice Whipple on the
10th of September.
'W P Plummor, lu attempting to
take possession of the house occupied
by the family of Hunt, the railroad
mau, last Wednesday, met with oppo
sition from Charles Hunt, who is occu
pying the building In the absence of
the family. Hunt has been uotltled
legally to vacate the premises.
"Arnold Wintzer attached the rail
road man's (O W Hunt) piano last
week. Dr Uigglns paid the bill and
took the Instrument himself."
A Cow Town. Grant's Pass Cour
ier: "The cow question came up at
the last meeting of the city council
and it was suggested that Marshal
Keenan drive up all the bovlnes found
at large during the night and let ths
owners have them next morning with
out pound charges, by way of warn
ing. Mr. Keenan said he would have
to obtain the assistance of a force of
bucaroos, and this was not vouchsafed
him. There waa some objection to
shutting up the cows, aa oue couucU
man suggested that numbers of poor
people make their living oil' tbem and
that it would bean injustice to shut
them up the moment dark came, as
the cow is of a convival nature aud
fond of stopping to talk to a neighbor
ing cow on her way home, and that It
would be wrong to worry her owner
by fear of Incarceration within the
gloomy portals of the city pound.
This was conclusive and the town
cow, with her sisters, brothers, cousins
and aunts, has now the liberty of all
streeU ana railroad tracks within the
corporate limits ot the city of Grant's
Pass." Those are the same silly argu
ments used In Eugene yearssgn, but
they didn't work. You couldn't hire
our people to return to cow days.
English Hop Rei'obt. The latest
copy of the Mark Lane Express, say
that good hops are in demand but
second grade hops are little asked for
and prices very unsatisfactory. Some
few Iota of new hops have arrived from
Stelennark, Wortemberg and Baden,
at the Nuremburg market and have
realized 6 los, to 7 for the best
qualltes and 5 to 5 15s for second.
Reports from the continent complain
of stagnation In the develonnicut or
the nops lately owing 10 uuu weaw.ci.
There Is a alight Improvement In Ger
many and Austria. The Russian crop
is expected to equal the crop of 1SW.
In England thty will have two-thirds
of a crop. They have to conteud wun

er, they were of the opinion Utlf''

mould and lice would spread wun
great rapidity and thereby dostroy a

Most of the yards were running y-
day and today but with a short iorw.
It was the opinion of most of the gen

would not harvest more than fifty per
cent of last year's crop under ihe mom
favorable conditions.
