In the Liberty and Roeedale districts, some damage has been done In spots, but aa- usual those people will have some prunes this fall. Such a thing aa a total failure of the crop In the Rosedale district haa never yet been known, and so long as the greatest prune district In Oregon produces, there la sure to be at leaat enough for home consumption. Conditions are very peculiar at Rosedale and Liberty. Some of the growers declare they have not been able to discover any damage to the crop, and the trees will be loaded with all they can bear, while othera are badly frost bitten, and some of the orchards will be entirely barren. Experienced fruit men say It Is yet too early to become discouraged, as there is plenty of time, and a likelihood of a late bloom, and a fair crop of fruit yet. k The orchards north of Salem are total . failure. Is predicted by growers and others who have seen the tsees. The fruit seems without exception to be turning black, and will soon drop off the trees. In the Waldo hills, conditions are about as at Rosedale,. except that the crop seems to have been more In jured. Lloyd Reynolds, who. Is a good judge of conditions, soma time ago de clared he did not believe mere waa any damage, but thought It was too early to tell, but he now admits a total failure on his orchard. The cherry crop has also suffered con siderably, and will be a total failure In the orchards north of Salem. tlon of candidates for admission to the bar, for June 7.

From Information received at the of fice of the Wilamette Valley Prune asso ciation, tha Willamette valley Is not alone in the prospect of a short crop of prunes. From Roseburg haa come the statement that there can not be more than a third of a crop, and pos sibly not that much. From Vancouver has come the information that the crop Is almost entirely gone, and the growers of Clark county, who have heretofore been such an Important factor in the prune Industry of the northwest, do not expect to figure this year. In fact, some predict that there will not be any prune harvest in that county. ' Based on the reports received from the several prune growing districts, and without a personal examination, Man ager H. S.

What la of more lntereat to Baker City In a mining way than any other one thing Is ths work now going forward at the Emma in the Virtue district t upon the mother lode which first made this camp famous as a gold quarts producer. Twenty-five or 20 years ago, shortly after the discovery of the Virtue, the Emma was located, and through succeed ing ownerships was more or less devel oped and worked In a desultory manner. In 1901 W. L. Vinson bought the prop erty from the Fuchs brothers and by hard work and persistent effort demon trated the richness of the property through the old workings at the upper tunnel. From this tunnel he sunk shaft, took out a great deal of rich ore and put It through the Bryan mill he had. erected at the mouth of the tunnel Last fall he began work on a large cross-cut tunnel - from the lower level with the broad plan of opening up the entire mountain. The work has so far progressed under Mr, Vinson's successful management and recent financiering that it can now be said this property will soon become one of the steady, large producers of the eastern Oregon mining district. ' The Bryan mill at the upper workings is not now working, because all efforts are being concentrated on the new de velopment work. , The camp Includes the mill and office, large boarding house. jo or a aosen individual , buhkhousea. which accommodate four men. each. barns, out-door, meat, refrigerator, and the electric power house, blacksmith shop and terminal buildings at the new tunnel.

It is perfectly constructed, heavily umbered, and large enough for a four- horse team to drive through. It is lighted by electricity end is now into the mountain over (00 feet, and is' expected win tap the main ledge in a short time.

The lumber for the building Is already being hauled onto tha ground, for which work a system of new roads has been con structed around the mountain with three different outleta through the valley. An Ideal mill site lies just below the mouth of the new tunnel and will enable the ore to be handled through the mill on a gravity system. The mill will be so constructed that the stamp batter ies can be Increased from 10 to SO, 40 or 100 If required.

May 11- Shippers here today declare that the tte-up of or lake commerce to the strike ordered by the Masters' and Pilots' association to suspend all lake trafflo until a set tlement is reached will be more disas trous in Its effects than the great an thracite coal strike. Last year the port of Buffalo had received up to May 31, 81,667,896 bushels of grain. Up to May 20 of this year the receipts were only 894,800 bushels. ' e The great water highway of trade between the west and the east la nrae. ticany closed. The smojee of a lumber craft or a tramp steamer is occasionally seen on the lakes .but that Is all. No figures are available showing the fall ing off or ore shipments but a pro portionate- decrease probably prevails. It Is estimated that there are In this port 150,000 tons of westbound coal on board vessels unable to sail on account er the tie-up. 1 ,f dram vessels which have . arrived here have not been unloaded because of a strike of men in . the elevators and consequently they cannot even enter into the lumber carrying business. Passenger service between Buffalo and Cleveland and Buffalo and Detroit has not been affected by the blockade.
