' A fine lot of furniture going very low at Crandall & Burget's new store. Govt Pennoyer has appointed Mr. Unus Hubbard of this city notary pub lic. Bro. II., continues in business at the old stand. The heavy, snowfall is greatly appreci ated by residents of Umatilla county. .who think that it will insure immunity irom drouth during the coming summer. Tne residence of Geo. Nowack in the south-western portion of the city was wholly destroyed by fire Saturday- eve-' ning last about 9 o'clock. The family ! were absent at the time, but some of the .neighbors succeeded in saving a stove And a pair of blankets. Everything else was destroyed. Loss $1,000; Insurance $800. When Mr. Nowak's house was burn ing Saturday evening a man at Toe Umatilla whose appearance would in dicate him to be a gentleman, but whose expressions indicated the lowest species of the hobo, "wished to see the fire burn the d town." II is actions and a description of the man (so-called) were reported to the police. The San Juan mines have proven to lie a fraud of the -first water. A re turned prospector, Mr. D. 'H. McLellan, of Denver, says he has talked with a great mauy prospectors from the new camp, old-timers from California, Nev ada, Montana and Salmon river, 'and they all had evidently had their fill of the San Juan. ' ' , . T.- - - ' ' -. ;'-. . Feeding stock has become general in the region of Fossil, and the plow has been taken in out of the cold to rest. These are slight r drawbacks, but the pleasures of such a winter as we. are hav ing are manifold. The young folks are having a glorious time coasting oh the hill and skating on the pond west of town, and, better than all, the old folks see in the increased snowfall bountiful crops now almost assured.' " . ; The Arlington Record is sound on the open river question. Bro. Johns says: "The world ia moving too fast now ; for us to be satisfied with the slow plodding of our forefathers. We are willing and anxious to see the government begin this work, but in the meantime this country is filling up with sturdy farmers, who want to realize on their investments 5rather than leave all to future, genera-Isbown through the jute mill where they tions.

Cherries, plums, pears and prunes are always in demand there and Oregon can compete with any state in the union in their production. . . Mr.' J. T. Day, who was in Washington City recently, says he found every one there, in any way connected with the Cascade Locks completion, anxious to have the work done as soon as possible and wilting to do all possible to help the matter along. The civil sundry bill now before congress contains an appropria tion for this work of over a million dol lars, which, with the balance of the ap propriation how in hand, will amount to $1,419,000, for,, which the contract was let. " It is expected that this appropria tion will be passed, in which case Mr. Day hopes to have -the canal and locks completed in about a year and a half. Astoria and Flavel, the chief seaport of the Columbia river watershed" is the title of a neat pamphlet' at . band today containing thirty pages of well digested facts, with explanatory maps, from the versatil and ready pen of Col. Sidney Dell. The name of the author is quite sufficient endorsement as to the facts set forth wherever , be is known. : But one thing puxzle us worse than the missing word "creatures," why was it necessary for Dell to knock out the op tics of a notorious stinking-fish cannery man, to enable the rest of mankind to see the virtues in his book? Astoria and Flavel have ever been one and indivisa- ble, since the days of Kindred "where rolls the Oregon." The excessive cold weather prevail: throughout the -eastern etates and Europe is in striking contrast to the weather here. rIt seems almost incredu lous to native Oregonians to read or hear of the sufferings of the many in the middle and -eastern states from' severe winter weather, when they compare the statements received with the climate we enjoy here. For the past - six weeks, with the exception of the snow storm of December 23d, which lasted a few days, the weather has been all that could be desired, with cool and occa sional foggy mornings and jsunny after noons. t New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia, are having unusually cold spells; rivers frozen over and-: business enerally suspended.

J. Webb, of Block House, was entirely destroyed by fire, Jan. 12th. The family were all away at the time, and Mr. Webb was hi The Dalles. By the timely assistance of the neighbors nearly all the household goods were saved. Loss, about $1,500 ; Insur ance, $900. . There are more Oregon apples in the Portland market now than there were last November. They come from South ern Oregon principally, and some from Eastern Oregon.' Growers who had good crops evidently held them back waiting for higher prices, and it appears that they have not been disappointed, for $2.50 per box Is asked for very choice varieties, but common are considerably cheaper. The supply is quite equal to the demand at present. The Scout thinks that addition and multiplication would "be of greater ben efit than division in Eastern Oregon counties, especially where they have not one-fourth as much population to the square mile as have the least productive counties in the east. There are counties in Oregon that could be added to an ad joining county with profit to the: tax payers. . - The Glacier ia right on to one of Gov. Pennoyer's cramps. The recommenda tion to abolish wheels and traps catch ing salmon, and allowing them only to be caught with seines or gill nets. , The reason he gives is that the wheel fisher men, by getting certain favored loca tions, catch fish plentifully and cheaply and are monopolies. It is quite ' true that all of us cannot have a favorable point for locating a fish wheel; it is also true that all of us are not able to buy a gill net and boats, nor strong enough to manage tbjm. . It would be proper, hen, under the circumstances, to make be law more .stringent yet, and - pro- libit catching the toothsome salmon ex- ept by the common method of hook nd line. A Tacoma dispatch says the litigation over the Urant Brothers' collapsible cylinder wrecking process was compro mised and the right to use the invention sold to Gen, Thomas H. Cavanaugh, representing eastern capitalists, for $500,000, $50,000 payable as soon as a successful" test is made, $100,000 in sixty days, $100,000 in" six months, and the balance in one year. They will probablyteet the process on Vanderbilt's yacht, eunk in Long Island sound. Gen. Cavanaugh and the Grant brothers will go. east at once and conduct the test. ' - - -. .'.,... v'. . Hon.

They are to have their own locomotive to haul their meat to Port land. The sausage manufactory is to be removed to Portland also, and the ice plant from Clarnie. W. H.

River, says: "I re gret . my inability to be present at the horticultural ' meeting held in Portland. We are having a hard time to. keep up the interest here. The moth and scale are very bad in some orchards, so that it is only by utmost vigilance that we can hope to succeed. I hope .to see an appeal from every county to our legisla ture which will help us to exterminate our fruit pests and advance fruit indus try.". Commenting upon the conditions theeditor of the Farmer says: "We are sorry to hear that there is any lack of interest or vigilance ' among the fruit growers of - Hood; Elver, ;asT.lhe whole northwest' have heard of the excellent fruit producing qualities of the climate and soil of 'that section, and it would be a burning shame to let a few pests de stroy or binder the reputation so gained, through inertia of a few of the growers. Mr. Calkins ideas of an appeal from every county in the state to the legisla ture is a suggestion that should be quickly acted -upon." . Further- com ment is unnecessary. " " Cbronlole Snap fchots. Friendship is a tender bond, especially when you go on a man's bond and are called upon to settle. .

Happiness is a quality of the mind whicii is very, hard " to define correctly. What is happiness to one man is the re-. verse to another. Spokane is suffering because of the scarcity of eggs at the present time and the Review reports that wholesale deal ers are cleaned . out entirely. -Ketail dealers are sellinz ranch eggs at 40 cents a dozen and eastern at 35 cents.' -Taken iq. connection with the present pro nounced scarcity and high price of pork products, it' makes, terribly hard lines for the, devotees of ham and eggs. The sheriffs and clerks fight .is now on. vKussell a bill repealing the act al lowing such officers in Eastern Oregon an additional fee of 33 per cent has been referred to the judiciary commit tee. Other bills of a similar nature are also presented and it begins to look- as though the cut in fees would be made. Another proposition will be to place all sheriffs and clerks on a stated salary, and there ia a wide divergance of opin ion as to what sum would be proper to give such officials. Some of the mem ber favor paying salaries that are ri diculously small, considering the ser vices to' be performed, and unless there is a disposition to give officials a fair recompense it is likely the bill will fail and the future sheriffs and clerks of Eastern Oregon . be the only sufferers through legislation of the present ses sion. Present incumbents are not in eluded in any of the bills looking to a reduction of fees or putting them on a salary.
