Other News. -
Washington, Aug. 25. Reports of a
meeting of the. Ottawa cabinet yester
day to discuss the outlook and the prob
able effect of President Harrison's proc
lamation on Canadian lake shipping,
made public through' the Poet, sho
that it has been decided that the Cana
dian government i will reimburse the
Canadian shippers this season for any
loss they may sustain through the im
position of tolls on freight going to Can
adian points through St. Mary's canal.'
It is said that no attempt at retaliation
would be made in the direction of im
posing discriminating tolls on Ameri
can vessels passing through the Wetland
canal, as had been suggested by some
government journals. It was" further
decided to carry to the notice of the
British government the absurdity of
continuing the Washington treaty in
force, in view of the fact that it has been
denuded of everr-clause by which any
special privileges were conceded to Can
adian citizen s,' and io urge ..the abroga
tion of the treaty at the earliest possible
moment. The question of asserting the
proprietary nd territorial rights of Can
ada in the St'. Clair falls canal where it
passes through Canadian territory, was
discussed,' the attention of the govern
ment having been drawn to the fact that
time would weaken their right to assert
jurisdiction in those waters. It was
contended that the fact that the Cana
dians accepted the use of the "St. Clair
falls canal on terms of equality with cit
izens of the United States did not . con
cede to the United States any exclusive
proprietary rights in the waterway.

"How are potatoes?" was the question
put to a leading rancher of Wasco at the
Umatilla house this morning. The sea
son bas been almost an ideal nnn w
potatoes. A little more late rain would
have increased the yield, but at the ex.
pense of the quality." Probably less
ground was seeded to these tubers than
last year, but the yield will fall but little
below that of last fall. Considerable in
quiry has been made for potatoes to ship
east, but as yet no prices have been
quoted, as but lew of them are rine
enough to ship so far. Should any great
amount be' shipped to eastern markets
the consumers at home will probably pav
a good round price for them before an
other crop is grown. - . -
For fruit the season has been a good
one, very few'orcbards being injured in
the least. Berries are practically gone,
but apples and plums are ripening quite
freely now, and the abundant season.
coupled with the new orchards commen
cing to bear, will greatly increase the
total crop. .

Idaho Free- Press. ' At -a hunting party
in the Elk city district the" ladies were
turned over to tin lady residents of the
camp and during their stay they enjoyed
a royal good time fishing and- hunting.
One day they caught sixty-seven hand-!
some trout. -The1 next night they am
bushed, at an elk lick, on tbe Red river
meadows, and succeeded in bagging a
cow elk with her calf." The" next day
two does arid a buck fell before "their
skill with the rifle, and it seemed . as . if
all the game in the valley knew of their
advent and were eager to stand "up and
be shot at by their fair, visitors.,'

8as Fkakcisco, Aug. 25. A terrific
rain, storm occurred at Santa-. Rosalie,

erty. " A. torrent' of water' .over half a
yard deep poured down the rocky hills,
carrying away part of the enstom house
and smelter, and rushing into tbe mines
doing considerable -damage to the rail
road, stores and houses. It wilt take a
month to make repairs. Had tbe storm
occurred during - the ; night probably
many lives would. have been lost..

i Humid Idaho.
. Lewie ton Idler. -r-JL. study of tbe mete
orological data of Idaho leads to the con
clusion that the humidity of the atmos
phere is increasing year by year.. Never
since the settlement of Idaho has there
been such an immense crop all over the
state as during the present season. ' The
product of grass and grain has been
wonderful'. - Scientific estimates attrib
ute this .result to a change in climate
produced by the multiplication of irri
gating canals, which moisten a great ex
tent of country and create a humid at
mosphere. : A CltjrSluaingr..-; : I .-

Washington, Aug. 20. A private let- '
ter from Senator George F. Hoar to a
Worchester divine, dealing with home
rule as he Bees it, traveling abroad, reads
as follows: "I think the American
friends of home rule for Ireland are in' a
condition to exercise great influence up
on the future progress of that cause and
to avoid- what seems ta me a very- great :
danger. Gladstone with his majority of
forty-two has to encounter a hostile
house of lords, a hostile press, and hos
tile sentiments of the upper classes and
nniversites, and it is rumored a hostile
queen. If Gladstone were to be disabled
or die, it is hard to see where the leader
could be found under whom the some
what disconcerted elements could be
united in any steady policy. If tbe Irish
friends of home rule make unreasonable
demands, or even if theygo to the" full
extent of what are clearly - reasonable"
and just demands, and. Gladstone should
in any way loose his majority or fail to"
accomplish .. any thing,,. the success of
home . rule - .roust . ' be '- postponed
to d very distant day, indeed. It seems:
to me, therefore, that America ought to"
raise her voice, which has been so influ
ential in the cause of . home rule, and
counsel the Irish representatives to be
content for the time being, with taking '
one firm forward step, eVen if they shall
not, for the time being, gain anything
which they desire,, Such a step once
taken will never be retracted." .

The Fragrant I.IJIum.
Telegram. This office has been made
fragrant all day with the odor of the
wonderful Lillum Auratum, grown at
Astoria, an which was described in
tfiese columns in yesterday's issue.
Such a floral 'specimen, is rarely seen,,
and'is a valuable tribute to Oregon's soil
and climate. Truly, nowhere else with
in the boundary of the United States
can such a lily be grown out of doors
It roust have been such a flower upon
which the eyes of the Christ rested wherr
! he said : "Solomon in all his srlorv was
not arrayed as oue of these." It would
be a hard and ungrateful heart, indeed,
which would not be touched with a
sense or the goodness of God by sight of
this sweet plant. '
