County Ehy'siclon McKay and City Physician Wheeler, of Portland, yester day vaccinated about 130 of the pupils of tho Woodstock school, who are be lieved to have been exposed to tho case of smallpox that was discovered there Sunday. Yesterday morning the prunegrowers convention met in Portland and pre liminary BtopB were taken for forming a permanent organization. Much interest was mauifeated as tho uttenduueo wns largo and there was a representative from every section oi Oregon and from some parts of Washington. Old Joaquin Miller, "the toet ol the Slerros," was in Virginia City n short tiuieugo, says the Eugene Guard, fo the first tlmo in obou forty years. Whllo on tho ComBtook he wandered into tho Enterprise printing office and asked "II Dan Do Qullle or Mark Twain was in." Mark Twain quit tho paper in 1803 and D.ui haB been dead several years. A. case of what Is supposed to be bu bonic plague, though tho exaoi nature of the disease is uncertain, has been discoveredjn Chinatown at San FrancU co. The patient, who is a Chinese .re siding on Dupont street, was immedi ately iiolated and the whole of China town hM, been placed under strict quar antine regulation?. No fonr iB appre hended of tho spread of the disease. County Commissioner A. B. Willard, of Tekon, reports that smallpox is preva lent in the vicinity of Tekoa and Farm ington, and on the Coeur d'Alene Indian reservation, east of these places.

Sumpter has been called a great many names: "The Cripple Creek of Ore gon," "The Johannesburg of America," "Tho Klondike at Home," and other high-sounding titles have been applied to this little Bonanzaland for 1000. There is one name, however, which late events have made most fitting. The recent rich strike iu tho property of the Co-operative Gold Mining Company has given cause for calling Sumpter the "Butte of the Pacific Slope." A meeting of the Board of Health, of Astoria, was held Tuesday to consider whatBteps should bo taken to guard the city against the possible epidemic of the plague. After considerable discussion the board decided, in view of the advice given in the matter by the physlcans of the city, that the most urgent thing to be douo was to destroy the rats, and a recommendation will be made to tho council that a bounty of 2 cents per head be paid for every rat killed.

Japan ia now turning her attention to the Pacific Coast for her salmon supply. M. Goda, of Yokohoma, who represents several of the largest fish importers of Japan, has arrived at Seattle from the Orient. His mission is to purchase be tween 300,000 and 400,000 salmon for export t die country. In an interview with a Seattle reporter he said that fish have been growing scarce in Japan for the past four or five years. Prior to a year ago the Japanese fecund their supply of salmon off Siberia. Then the Russians passed a law which practically expels them from the salmon waters, and that supplv is thnscnt riff, and they must now look to the United States for their supply. The demand for salmon in the far East will greatly increase should the panic conditions prevail for any length of time. We hope that the bubonic plauue will not find a lodgement in tins country, and feel sure that it will not if the of ficers of the marine-hospital service can prevent it, says the New York Medical Journal. There certainly i3 no immi nent danger of It doing so, but that is no reason for being blind to or denying its possibility. The maxim "In time of peace prepare for war" is as applicable to sanitary as to military operations, and when a pestilence reigns in one part of the globe the people of the rest of the world should put themselves in a f-tate of defense rigainst it by every means that nn intelligent foresight can provide. We have an immense coast line and other borders, and it is pretty certain that alt immigrants to the United States do not come through ports of entry. In the case of the Chinese this is somewhat notorious. Some infected Oriental may thus find entrance to the country and transmit the disease to others of his race. Were this all, the pest might be stamped out by isolation and quaran tine; but, where human beings contract St, the ubiquitous rats and mice also be come affected with it, and they can never be isolated nor quarantined. They tend to spread the pestilence further and further. LOCATION FOR SCOURING MILL Lund I'urclinnecl anil Building to Krectt'il Jul mediately Other Kiiterprlnes. be The scouring mill proposition, which has been before our citizens for the past few weeks, 1b to soon be a reality. Mr. J. M. Ruasell has decided to build the plant on the Sherar property which is situated directly back of the building occupied by the First National Bank. Tbts property is 100x120 feet and is located adjoining the railroad track which will make it very convenient. The old brick building on the corner will be repaired and used for an office and a storage warehouse. On the ad jolng property will bo built n two story corrugated iron building which will con tain all the machinery and other ap paratus necessary tor the successful op eration of i he plant. Work is to bo commenced at ouee and the building will be completed as soon as possible. Our citizens should be congratu'ated n securing such an enterprise, for when capital ia interested in such a proposi tion us this, it is bound to lead to other enterprises. It is a fact that a soap factory and a woolen mill are adjuncts to a ecouMig mill aud all are advan tageous, one to tho other. Before another season cjmes, means should be taken to secure these manu factories, and it Is more than likely something will be done regarding the matter. At present, however, wo are more than pleased with the securing of the scoiiring mill aud will be satisBod to abide our time aud await further devel opemeuts.
