Ris teigen, president of the First Na tional bank at Silverton, and R. A. Cowden, manager of the Sil verton Lumber company here, were prime movers in seeking the charter for a new national bank at Portland. The new bank will be known as the Willamette National bank and will operate on the east side at Portland. W. Jones, insurance agent of Portland, is also an im portant factor in the new enter prise it is understood. The proposed national bank, if granted its charter, will probably have location at the corner of East Burnside and Union avenue. It would have a capital of $200, 000 and a surplus of $450,000, the requisites being established by the national banking laws. Mr. Jones, it is said, some time ago applied for a charter for a state bank to be, located on the east side. This application was refused by Frank C. Braniwell on the ground that the district to be served is already amply supplied with banks. The Opera House Drug Store. Service, quality, low prices, friend ship give increasing patronage.

August. The last machine tc be shipped from there weighs 56,000 pounds. It is the beater. If it is not on the wax now, it will be started in the next few days. Then there is the spinning ma chinery to come from Belfast. It will arrive within a, few weeks. When will all the machinery be" set up, so that a beginning may be made of spinning, and. immedi ately thereafter, of weaving? It is hoped, with good luck, that the spinning will be started off about the first of November. The operatives, : In all depart ments of the new mill, will have to be trained. But Mr. Aldred is a successful linen mill super intendent. He. made a big success of the mill at Lockport which is btill going strong, with his& broth er a3 superintendent. - The ma chinery at Lockport was all bought and paid for ' several months" ago, and a large part of it is already here or in transit.

However, it seems that in spite of, the recent hot weather, the trees are retaining their dark green appearance which showsthe result of the nearly complete rest of last season due to the very small crop. It was the. general opinion that this thinning out, ex cepting in cases where it becomes too extreme; is going to be very beneficial and w ill result In a much better crop of fruit. The report on marketing sub mitted to the directors, shows an unusual interest in Oregon prunes. This interest is world wide but sales submitted for ex port are frequently at values that leave the growers too small a margin to cover cost of produc tion.

O. M. Pierce of Port land was the successful bidder for the job. The overhead will eliminate five railroad crossings in a short stretch of road, and according to the county court has been 'needed for many years. It will be neces sary to construct between two and three miles of new road to tie up with the overhead crossing, and work on this road has been under way for several weeks. The new route will be open for traffic early in the fall. The actual cost of the overhead Itself will be 19600, it is said. The Southern Pacific company has ap propriated $12,000 for the work of building the crossing and the new road, the rest of the amount to be paid by the county.
