time, busily engaged in placing our orders for Spring and
Summer Goods and feel justified in announcing that we
shall havethe FINEST ASSORTMENT and the BEST
GOODS in all our lines that has ever been seen in The

after their arrival, of which we shall -give you due notice.

shall sell them. We mean . business and propose to have
your patronage, if LOW PRICES and the BEST

The heavy, snowfall is greatly appreci

Tne residence of Geo. Nowack in the

The San Juan mines have proven to

they all had evidently had their fill of

One who has been to Chicago, and
looked the ground over pretty thoroughly
says there is every reason why our fruits
should find a ready and paying market
during the exposition, provided they
are properly packed and do not have to
pass through so many hands as to eat up
the profits. 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

The excessive cold weather prevail:

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

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

varieties, but common are considerably

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

In a note to the Farmer, Mr. E. D.
Calkins, of Hood. 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. " "

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

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.
