WEATHER AND CROPS.
rHERE Is always something that
may be complained of and
grumbled at even in Oregon
but there Is always much more
. to be thankful for'and to rejoice
over. The weather and its relation
. to and Influence on the crops
always a surface subject of discus-
slon and calculation, , and when
; everything Is Said on this subject
our opening statement remains true.
No season can suit all sorts of ag
1 A. a
ricuituraiisiB, ana some seasons
won't nit a majority or perhaps
even many of them, but when the
, " year has rolled around we always
. find that a good deal of the com
; plaining and pessimistic prophesy
ing was not Justified, and that
on the whole the weather has been
pretty good, and a good deal better
v: than In some other sections of the
. country.
; There has been a backward and
rather cold and dry spring, an un
, usual combination, but , think how
i much worse the spring, or the sea'
eon called spring Jn the calender,
has, been back east. And after all
the spring's backward ijss has done
no great damage. Thepresent June
Tains will do Borne harm, perhaps,
to one or two fruit crops, but will do
- many times as much good in other
- ways. And so It has been and will
be. with all kinds of weather some
of It is bad as to some products or
localities, but on the whole It is
" fairly if not '' very", good.
: All through eastern Oregon and
eastern Washington there is promise
of the greatest wheat crop ever har
vested. - Of course this is not ouite
certain yet, and there will be dif
ficulty as usual about harvest help,
but the farmers of that region will
reap many millions In a' few weeks.
It wheat , keeps up to 80 cents, or
anywhere near that, the yield in the
upper country will amount to a vast
sum of money to be divided among

SUNDAY SALOONS HERE AND
ELSEWHERE.
S
T. PAUL got ahead of Portland
by a week In the matter of
closing up saloons on Sunday
The lid waB on tight through
out the 24 hours of last Sunday in
St. Paul, and It is expected that this
will be the regular order of the first
day of the week In that city hence
forth. So it is going to be hereafter
in Portland, perhaps. We shall see
If the matter is to be tested In the
courts let It be done quickly, and
get a decision. We are under the
impression that substantially the
same issue has been decided by the
supreme court lately, though it was
the state local option law that was
Involved In that case. That stood In
the court, as against a local charter
law, and we see no reason why the
anti-Sunday law should not also pre
vail as against a charter provision,
though such a reason may exist. It
is for the courts to say. But if the
saloons are to be closed on Sunday,
it be done, if the law for that
purpose be good, and let us not have
any false motions and pretenses
about It. This is the policy that
has been adopted or Is being adopt
ed by many of the mosT progressive
cities of the country; The purpose
