BORUP IS RECALLED.
Accused of Trafficing in Plans of French
: ' " : Defenses.
HARRISON THANKED FOR ACTION.
Secretary . Elkins Believes . Bo nip is
Wrongfully Accused..
A LIMITED OFFICE . ALLOWANCE
That he Should Bay or- Sell Illegally
.Obtained Flans is Absurd on
. . ' Its Face.
"-' Xkw York, June 29. The tempest in
a teapot all over France, Italy and Ger
many, growing out of the charges pre
ferred against Capt. Borup, of St. . Paul,
Minn., the military attache of the lega
tion at Paris, that he had been instru
mental in transferring plans of French
defenses , to Germany and . Italy, has
blown over, and President Harrison has
been4 thanked by the . French govern
ment for recalling Borup. Hon. T. J.
Coolidge, American minister to France,
had an interview yesterday with Kibot,
minister of foreign affairs, and informed
him that in accoi dance with the request
of the French government the United
States had recalled Borup. ' This had a
good effect, and the scandal '. wili 'prob
ably stop now.. The French are fussy in
most matters of an official kind, and it
is hot believed by reasonable people any
where in military circles that Borup had
anything to do with "Genier." I Borup. is
on friendly terms with" the other' mili
tary attaches, including those of. Ger
many and Italy,- and this fact has served
to strengthen the feeling againt ' him, as
the French do not like anyone to asso
ciate on other terms than' bare' official
intercourse with the Germans. Besides
plans of, the defense of Toulon, Brest
Cherbourg and other places, Genier is
charged with divulging, through Borup, a
code of marine signals prepared for use
in the event of war. with Italy. . The
authorities have released M. Ondin, who
was arrested on a charge of complicity
with Genier. . Secretary Elkins, jspeaks
in the highest terms ot Borup and ex
presses confidence in his ability to prove
his innocence. -' His recall, wars the
natural consequence of 'the unfortunate
affair, for, even though" .'he may satisfy
the French authorities that he has been
wrongfully accused, his usefulness as an
attache will necessarily be impaired.
His. recall would therefore have followed,
regardless of any demand for it by the
French authorities. '. The fact that Borup
is allowed only . $50 a-month for office
expenses, out of which he is authorized
to purchase periodicals, maps, drawings,
etc., must be accepted as. pretty conclu
sive evidence that he-has not gone into
the business of purchasing, stolen plans
on a very large scale.; That he should
sell Stolen plans to" other countries would
seem to be equally absurd when it is
known that he is financially rich:
Oregon Weather Report.
- Portland; June 28. Eastern -Oregon.
Showers fell on the '22d dnd frosts, of
varying' -.intensities occurred on the
mornings of the 21st and 22d iniconnties
east and south of , the "Blue' mountains',
which injured vines and tender vegeta
tion to some extent.. Since the 24th the
temperature has been rising, until Sun
day and Monday, when it ..was upwards
of 95.' in almost ever . section. The
winds have been from the' north and the
air-is very dry. . Crop: conditions have
not improved any. .There , yet is and
moetJikely there wiU'continuettp be a
gloomy oatjook for. the grain, crop: In
the central part of Gilliam county; the
eastern portion of Umatilla county, gen
erally through Union and Wallowa
counties, the grain crop is good, . but in
the other portions of this section the
grain ia burnt, farmers are discouraged
and some will hot obtain even ' their
seed. The weather has been cool ,.for
corn, but- the late warm weather may
give it more growth. , Twenty four hours
of. good rain fall would revive much oi
the damaged wheat. Barley and rye are
doing better. Eye will soon be ready to
col.." Strawberries are ripening in Grant
and other interior counties, where' also
alfalfa is being cut. The rivers have
been falling for the past three days, and
all danger of high water is now passed.
. Western Oregon.' Tuesday 'the 21st,
was coot and showery, and from Wed
nesday the temperature has risen until
Sunday and Monday the 26th and 27th
when 90 or more were recorded through
out ..this section, except on the im
mediate coast.' This is the warm
est weather so far. this year. The sky
has been cloudless and the winds have
been northerly. Grain has. grown and
filled very well, except in parts of Jose
phine and Jackson counties, where it
has been burned. Along the .coast and
in Douglas county, And throughout the
Willamette valley, the grain is doing
very well, though it is not so good as
last year. The ground is becoming
very dry and hard, and all vegetation
would be benefitted by rains. Potatoes
are doing very well and promise a eood
yield. Rasp and black berries are now
ripe. Strawberries are not so plentiful
now as one week ago, and they are going
out of season.- Cherries are ripe; they
are of good quality, but not an average
in quantity. Hop lice are present, but
are yet rather dormant ; it is hoped that
the present warm weather may decrease
them. Haying is being finished, the
weather being very favorable to that op
peration. The fruit prospects are no
better as for quantitv. but the analitv
promises to be above the average.
Current Toplea.
The East Oregonian has ascertained
that A. E. Stevenson. ' vice-'nresidont. on
the democratic ticket, is a cousin of ex-
Governor Stevenson, of Idaho. .
Harrison R. .Kincaid. editor of t.h
State Journal, has been recommended
by a number of the prominent citizens
of Oregon, for the position of' Collector
of Customs at Portland, made vacant
by the death of . Hon. R. P. Earhart.
The Guard hones that he will be
the appointment, as he is deserving of
tne place by his long and continuous
faithful services to his party. . Besides,
says the Guard, he is honest and fully
competent.' . " ,. '.
The people of Lane county are jubilant
over the fact that the -subsidy for the
railroad from Eurene to Florence has all
been raised, says the Times. This was
at first thought to be impossible, but
every man put his shoulder to the
wheel,; fully realizing that in unity there
is strength, and the $100,000 was raised.
The people of that county never made a
better investment. The natural advan
tages of the route,-the subsidy that is
pledged, and the resources of the section
of country to be traversed will make it a
prontaoie and paying road.
An exchange would have the oublic
believe that matrimony being one of the
United States, Ohio likewise, and ex
secretary Whitney having married in
Ohio he is, therefore, "an Ohioan by
marriage." , Oil's well that ends swell.
Referring to the bolt of the Oreiron
delegation for McKlnley, Hon. C.
W. Fulton says it meant no ill will to
ward Harrison. . "When the Oregon
delegation reached Minneapolis we
found a big split in the republican forces,
and,.de8pairing of Harrison's ability to
unite them, and believing also that
some, 'dark-horse' democrat ' would "be
chosen instead of Cleveland at Chicago,
we came to the conclusion that safety
lay only in nominating some new man.
Therefore we voted for McKinley. Mr.
Hayes, however, voted for Harrison.
We feared the democratic dark-horse be
cause the attitude of .both Harmon and
Cleveland on the silver question is well
known, and - .sHyer -men . believe that
either would veto a .silver bill. There
fore,., surmising- that the democrats
would possibly put up a" man who had
not committed himself,- or, who 'would
probably approve' a free-silver bill, we
thought it ' suicidal ' for us ' to ' put . Mr.
Harrison in the field. The silver men
favored McKinley, not because . he had
shown a favoritism for free silver,: but
because he had remained upon the fence
without - declaring ' - himself. - They
thought they stood a better chance with
him than with Harrison. Its all right
now." '.''.'.
The Tfgh Bill Road.
. Dufur Dispatch. Tom Driver in town
yesterday, says the Tygh road is nearly
done, and is now in use All speak in
high terms of the road, and particularly
of the easy grade that has been secured.
One man with' two horses took up a load
of 1,000 pounds in fifty minutes. A part
of our coming celebration will be to cel
ebrate the completion of the Tygh bill
road.. Glory enough for the day.

WRITS ISSUED FOR NEW ELECTION.
Commended For Its Six Years of Ardu
ous Labors by The Queen.

land Believed to be of Great
Good.
London, June 29. The queen yester
day signed the decree at Windsor castle,
dissolving parliament. There were
present Lord Cran brook, lord president ;
ex-Chancellor Goschen, chancellor of the
exchequer, and Earl of La thorn, lord
chamberlain of the household. Writs
for the election of members of the house
of commons were at once distributed.
The queeen's speech proroguing . parlia
ment says: "The time has arrived
when it is expedient the electoral body
of the country be consulted by the as
semblage of a new parliament. I have
therefore eumiuoned you for prorogation
at an earlier period than usual. I am
glad to record that my friendly relations
with foreign powers remain unaltered.
Treaties have been duly ratified referring
the differences with the United States
with respect to the Behring sea to arbi
tration.'' Referring to the bills passed
at the session just ended, the speech
says the arrangements that parliament
has made enabling the workingmen to
purchase agricultural holdings will in-.
crease a class of ' cultivating owners,
which is of great importance to the
state. " The application to Ireland of the
educational measures recently adopted
in Great Britain will confer a very great
benefit upon the people of that country.
The speech concludes : 'In closing this
parliament, which has been usually la
borious and also highly fruitful in bene
ficient legation, I thank you for the as
siduous performance of your momentous
duties during. the past six years, and
heartily commend you to the favor o"
Almighty God."
Oregon Granite.
Reporter. If anybody doubts that
granite of excellent quality, and quanti
ty sufficient to meet all demands
abounds in Yamhill county, he can have
his doubts removed by calling at this
office and inspecting a sample of the
rock, or by driving to the ledge three
miles distant. Portland builders and
capitalists should investigate thin. It is
easy to get at good wagon roads and no
steep hills to clinib, and a motor line or
railroad spur conld be built to it without
great expense. ''
; Reservation .Gold. FieldH.
Klamath Star. A report is in circula
tion to the effect that in many places on
the Klamath Indian reservation ' good
progpects of gold, both' ' quartz and
placer, have been found quite easily,
some of them - extremely rich. The
government "forbids , the working of
mines there, but when the reservation
is opened to settlement, the rush for
these prospect holes will be lively and
probably pretty warm. :

Canada is finding a large number of
