Tiik Wiikvt Chop. Tho indications from
what we have been able to collect from those
who aro adtised, says tho Wulla Walla Union,
are that the wheat crop this year will fall
consideiably short of the yield of last season,
Tho fall wheat is stid to be about tho same as
last ear, but the spring sown fields ill some
localities will doubtless give below an aver
age yii I t. The cold spring weather is one ot
the causes of the present backwardness of tho
grain; it kept it fr in growing, allowed the
weeds to get iu alv.inco and to an ex
tent crowd out the crop. From a few
of the leading farmers w ho have learned
that the increase of aceage of wheat
in what is know n as the Dry creek sec
tion, embracing all that section between Mill
creek and Dry creek to the mouth of the lat
ter, will yield about threo tons for shipment
tn two last 8oason. However, it is not in
jured to that extent by drought and heat that
a rain would not restoio it and ct insure a
good yield, urain neius in Assotin, uead-
man and in parts ot Columbia county, are said
to bo "firing" considerably. Whitman county
grain is iu lino growing condition, but much
later than hero.
Tlif.Flth Wheel at Ibe CiKratlrs.
A gentleman who spent some time watch
ing the operations of the fish wheel at the
Cascades yesterday, furniehes a very interest
ing account of its workings. The li-li wie
plentiful while he was there and it was a fine
sight to sie tho large salmon threo or four at
a time lifted out of the water in the large wiie
tcoops of the wheel and after falling to the
center, elide down a seliuto into a Urge bin,
where they kicked and flounced till dead.
Then they were sent t a cannery two er three
miles below in the following singular manner.
A man armed with a large needle threaded
with a piece of blo rope strung them thrjugh
the eyis a dozen in a bunch, and when a
dozan of these strings were ready, they were
tied together and the gross of fish hoist, d into
the river by a derrick, where the ropj was
made fast to akeg buoy and the parcel al
lowed to float down the river to Bonneville,
where a small steamer took them in and
landed them at the cannery. Vast numbers
of river pike were caught, killed and givtn to
Indians or fed to hogs, which it is claimed is
a good idea, as theo worthless tisli are very
destructive to salmon spawn aud young sal
mon. The proprietor ot tho wheel stated that
he intended tn start a natchery at a cold
mountain stream near by, nnd in August,
when the spawn of tho salmon is ripe, he
would arrange his machine so that they could
be caught without injuring them, strip them
of their eggs, which he would hatch, and so
place in the river many times more salmon
than he killed. And this he intended to do
t his own expense. The wheel, from the ac
count riven, tloes not appear to bo no very
destructive an affair. The scoops do not
reach within many feet of the bottom, end
unless sa'mon all swim within a short distance
of the surface a large percentage must escape.
The ereat objection to these wheels has not
been on account nf the number of fish caught,
but from the idea tnat an unfair advantage
was taken by placing the wheels at points
where the lish. owing to the swiftness of the
current, were obliged to hug the shore and so
could scared' fail to he taken, but as the
wheel is only a few feet wide and does not
reach near the bottom, probably many are
missed. Standard.
Up the Cowi.it. The steamer Toltdo, of
the Portland and Cowlitz river trade, on last
Tuesday, weut up that rirpr about 30 miles
above t'oledc, XV. T., the present hoid ot
navigation. This is the first time any boat
has undertaken the trip, and the water was
found to be deep enough for navigation, but
some wotk is necessary to remove certain oh
afflictions. Tin's enterprise of the steamboat
company will be a great benefit to the sottlen
of tlio eastern portion of Ciwli'z county, in
giving them an outlet, w hich they have not
had, except by the tlow and tedious wagon
road. The Toledo brought down a full cargo
of lumber, grain, hay, etc., and will make the
same trip in a few elays again.

A Phkdictkik. The Oregon Short Line of
the Union Pacific railroad, says tho Walla
Walla Union, is building rapidly toward the
Pacific. The lino from (.ranger to the Wood
river country has already been opened to
traffic. On the 8th inst rails were laid ou
tho bridge over the Snako river at American
Fulls and for 2000 feet beyond that point, and
tho daily rate of progi ess "since that tlmo has
been about it niilo and a quarter. At this rate
the rails will uudnub.edly be laid to Little
t ooit river iu sixty days. Un tho dav unon

The S.wtiam Mixes. The mines of the
Santiam are coming into notice onco moic.
Capt. lilaisdcll, nf Nevada, a brother of tho
Governor of that Stte, and some of our
Portl mil capitalists have secured a controlling
interest in the White Ball mine, and work
will bo commenced en it iu Julv and an
effort wiH bo mSde to develop the great
tu.!tliit is btipposed to contain. A paying
lead, two feet in width, has been struck in
the Canal Fork mine and the discovery cf
other good leads is reported. Many attempts
have been mado to develop the m'nes on tho
Santiam, but heretofore without success,
although it is deemed certain that thoy aro
very valuable. From the experience and
wealth of those who are now engtged in the
enterprise it is certain that if the mines are
good the fact will be demonstrated to a proof.
