It seems to be the opinion of the managers of the different systems that money will be harder to Ret, anil that the Income will not Justify those expenditures which are not absolute ly necessary for the equipment of the trains and .track. This may be because It Is a presidential year, anil It may be because wise ones near the center of trade know of some causes which will tie thlnRH up for a time. Over the mountain division of the O, It. & K anil clear Into Portland, In fact, nothing big will be done In the way of Improvements. At Hepp ner new Htock yards will be put In, bur this Is caused by 'he destruction of the old ones by the Hood. Tho new yards will bo larger than the old, and will be built to accommo date the largo sheep shipping trade of that district. At Ccho tho yards will alHo be Im proved, and reconstructed In part. New fences will bo built In place of those now dilapidated, arid the gen eral condition of the place made hot ter for the convenience of the ship pers. The grounds of both yards will be graveli'd and drained, doing away with the mud. J Martha "Am I the first woman youever loved, George?"

Sneaking of tho coming prohibi tion campaign In Umatilla county, an old sottlcr of Union county, who has lived In Suinmcrvlllo precinct, for 30 years, and who waB In Pendleton yesterday evening, on tils way home from a visit to Walla Walla, tells an Interesting story of the beginning of the prohibition movement In his county. He said that Summorvllle precinct had always had tho name of being a hard locality, from tho prohibition standpoint. It was ono of the strong democratic precincts, and the old gentleman, who had voted that ticket for 4i years, says tho democrats did not stampede to the prohibition Idea. When the flrBt prohibition ticket was nominated In tho county, Sum morvlllo precinct cast but ono pro hibition vote. Tho second, and the third election, In which a prohibition ticket was In the field, found that one solitary voto In Summnrvllle, solid for the straight prohibition ticket lly this time Summorvllle was thor oughly amused and began a search for that lone prohibitionist In tho midst of Biich a rousing democratic majority, and ho was finally located. It proved to he Clark Oliver, a prominent farmer and reformer, who subsequently became a leader In the populist movomont In Union county and uIro one of ttio foremost reform ers In the state. Finally the prohibition movement spread, oven In Hummorvllio pre cinct, and while It novor was carried by that party. It mado a good record for IIh ndvocates there.
