Hop. Ilarrlsburg Review: The grout In dustry of raising Imps is being ueg lectcd this season to a great extent. In this vicinity there are but few yards being cultivated. It is to be noted that in the famous Ileitis of Dr Davis, where the poles were loaded last year with a production of from two to three tons a-r acie, they ure la-lug used ut least the g.eater portion -for sheep pasture. Cunningham, (fant and many others, have left their Imp poles In the ricks where placed ut the close of the last picking season. While these condition ure very discouraging to our growers, it seems to be the only means by which an overburdened market can be relieved. This Industry has been the menus of disbursing enor mous sums of money In Oregon, the luck of which will be keenly felt by our people. The compensating idea is that when the market for hops shall resume a normal condition, Oregon has the climate, soil, facilities and habits of industry to receive a greater proportion of the benefit than any other portion of the globe.

The Ore-on Stato Journal, eJitojl n.lowr.c,0bylIon.II.H-K..c1ull, renublit-au secretary of fctule, eayu, after quoting a virulent editorial from the Oregonian: "The foregoing is a fur Fpeci men of the misrepresentation, be littlement and proscription with which this big organ of the gold gundard party has pursued the silver republicans of Oregon dur ing the last 18 months. It repre sents less than one-third of the iieoplo of Oregon, but assumes an air of supreme importance and omnipotent wisdom as if it were the keystone of the universe. ith out judgo or jury, it tries and con demns all who do not agree with it, and orders them to te 'kicked out of the party,' to 'take their medicine,' to 'go with the populists, to 'decamp.' It assumes to own the republican party bodily from the Atlantic to the Tacilio and to dictate what it shall do. It as sumes to be so much bigger than the republican party that anyplat form or nomination made by the party is not binding on it. It bolts the nomination of Ellis, Uarklcy, and every other silver republican. It has the egotism to claim that these republicans and those who agreo with them on the money ques tions are fools or populists, while it is the only einxm pure republi can, and possesses wisdom of all ages. Three-fourths of the people of Oregon favor 'putting silver back where it was in 1873 as a standard money on an equal footing with gold.' In intelligence and wisdom they will compare favorable with tho champions of the English single gold standard. While the writer of this and tho silver repub licans generally voted for a gold standard nominee for congress in the first district and for gold stand ard men for legislative and other offices, wherever they were on tho republican ticket, this arrogant dictator bolted and opposed every regular nominee of tho republican party who favored silver from con gressman down to county officers. This extreme and intolerant gold fanatic proscribed every silver re publican in the state at the last election and proposes to continue such proscription. If this fanatic can dictate to the people of Oregon, all the Bilver republicans will bo driven out of the party, leaving the party to consist of n few gold standard republicans and democrats who will not bo able to rally as largo a vote in tho state during the next ten vears as Northup received in the Portland district at the last election, and that was less than one-tourlh of the total vote. It is strange that such superior intelli gence should be bo eager to force an issue of this kind. On a straight issuo between a single standard and gold platform and a gold and silver platform, if it shall come to that, through the arrogance of the gold men who now have control of the republican party machinery, the gold men cannot carry a single stato west of the Mississippi river nor very many east of it, and their platform and their candidates will be beaten by the largest popular vole ever cast in tho United States. If the silver republicans 'get their medicino within a week' the gold republicans may 'get their medi cine' next November. They can then 'take it or decamp.' He who laughs last laughs best." The silver republicans have been given a veryl arge dose of "gold medicine," and now wo look for such men as Mr. Kincaid and his paper to support a man for nresi- dency nominated on a silver plat- ioiui. no win wan anu see wnai we shall see.

C, after an uS cessful prospecting trip jn V Salmon river district, jj, v! reached tho Columbia river it point six miles north of Trail Land ini?, B. C, at about noon, atd selecting a sight on the bankrf the stream at tho foot of LooC mountain, Bat down to eat hit dinner. As ho munched hu humble food he noticed a hJ, boulder, half buried in tl19 eiDj in the dry portion of tho river bti not far from wher he tat. When ho had finished big mtlt ho walked over to the boulder in. manner, and then as his exwri. enced eyo detected signs of thj precious metal for which he hid vainly Bought for moDths, heat, tacked the great grey mace win, his pick, working with feveriih energy. He almost swooned hcn a fragment of the rock came awar showing distinctly tho traces of gold and copper. "I am richl" he shouted. Then he proceeded to take specimens of the ore from a dozen places on tbe boulder, staked out h:s claim, hur ried to Uossland, arriving late ia the afternoon and recorded the claim. Tho next day he bad hii specimens assayed by different ex. pcrts who found that the ore ran in value all the way from N3t0 $35 per ton. When he told of his great fortune there was a wild rush to the place. A surveyor accompanied Neilly to his bonanza, and, after making measurements, declared that the boulder weighed approximately 20,000 tons, and that in round numbers, it will prove to be worth 1,000,000. The miners argue that there must be more gold where this came from, and the mountain side clear above the timber line is being staked off, and miners are Hocking to the district from different points, confident that .the story of Cripple Creek will bo repeated.
