Page Eight The Capital Journal Salem, Oregon Astoria Gets New annery c New Corporation to Be Able to Handle Crop of Fruit Formerly- Shipped Out Astoria, June 7. A new indus try and one which will not only give employment to a number ot men, but will also distribute thou sands of dollars annually among the farmers of Clatsop county for raw products has been launched in Astoria by the organization of the Columbia Fruit Canning com pany. The new company, which is com posed entirely of local interests, will be incorporated by John Slot te, John E. Wicks and J. B. Wen tjar and its capital stock is to be $20,000. It has already erected Its cannery building at the corner of Twenty-third and Exchange treets and installed the machin ery ready for operation, at a cost of approximately $15,000. The plant will begin operations about August 15 and the activities this year will be confined to the can ning of evergreen blackberries, but as soon as the acreage of logan berries In the county Is sufficient to warrant those berries as well f.B other small fruits will be hand- The capacity ot the plant for the present season will be 500,000 pounds of the cured product, but preparations have been made for increasing the sue of the plant from time to time as the condi tions justify it. Although the company is a new one, It has al ready secured a market for all the canned berries It can turn out and It will thus be prepared to take all the berries offered from this district. Heretofore, the only market for the evergreen blackberries of which there are vast quantities grown In Clatsop county each year, has been in Portland or points further in the interior, but the Inauguration of this new en terprise furnishes a steady market at home. Lane County Pioneer In Good Roads Eugene, June 77. It Is general ly known and admitted througn out Oregon that Lane county was the pioneer in modern methods of road building and Lane county's methods have been widely copied, says R. A. Booth, chairman of the state highway commission. Ben ton county, which is doing excel lent road work, patterned its equipment and system directly af ter Lane and secured its road mas ter from this county. Multnomah and Yamhill counties sent repre sentatives here to study Lane's methods, and both have reported that what they learned has been decidedly beneficial. "During the past five years there has been a great advance by the counties of the state in their road building work," says Mr. Booth. "In the state work, nearly all of which is done on a co-operative basis with the counties, we meet the representatives of al the coun ties of the state and are constantly in conference with them in study ing plans for road systems and methods of constructing the roads. "It Is generally known through out the state and I think every where admitted that Lane county was the pioneer In the newer ideas of road improvement, both as to the general system of county roads and the methods of constructing them. I have heard much of this not only in the road conferences that have been held In Portland, but In the various counties that I visit. It is highly gratifying to our people and complimentary of our county court, and has been a great gratification to me as a citi zen of Lane county."

Sulli van and Jake Kilrain July 8, 1889 takes the stage. That lengthy party was al fresca and In defiance of the authorities, the ring being in an open field near the village of Rlchburg, Miss. The fighters stripped to the waist, had no protection from the hottest kind of a blistering summer sun. For two hours and eighteen min utes they banged away at each other and bled and perspired. At one time Sullivan's stomach showed signs ot weakening and Kilrain proposed a draw. Sulli van replied to this suggestion with a blow that knocked the challen ger down. Finally Kilrain could no longer stand the punishment and the torrid heat and his se conds flung In a sponge. At the start of the fight. Sheriff Coward of Marlon county had stepped forward to insist that it should not go on "He was a small man," said a report of the affair, "and did not appear at all like Ajax the lightening.

He estimates that 85 per cent of the cripples now de pendent and helpless could be placed with porper training in positions where they could make their way and cease to be an ec onomic burden. Mr. Sebastian, who has set out with his great purpose in view, seems to possess an infinite amount of courage. For some time he has been working in his plan with the late Michael Dowling, a banker of the east, likewise a crip ple, who died in April.

Labor News Fails; Local Men Suffer Notice was received last .night by Salem creditors of the banlc nintcv of Ray. A. Vanderhoff, ,Miai,pr of the "Pacific CoastJ Labor News," labor paper with a large circulation in this city. Id a campaign last fall in November and December conducted here by representative of the magazine, some $4500 of advertising was contracted by local business men for the following year, all but about $700 being paid in ad vance. The paper which has had a cir culation here of about 100 copies was strongly supported by local trades and the Salem Trades and Labor Council, although the Port land Labor press lined up against the new publication. Local advertising was solicited by the representatives with the recommendations of the local council, it being announced at that time that the press then publish ing four different trade magazines would be moved to Salem. The company, however, made no move to do this, the reason generally supposed by local labor men to be the opposition of local papers and the Portland press. The paper, which has been re ceived weekly in Salem until the past month, devo.so two and three pages of the 16 to local news and advertising. Advertising was also solicited in Roseburg and Pendleton, al though neither place had so large amount involved as the local ad vertisers. A meeting of creditors, accord ing to the announcement will be held in San Francisco, June 14. Other papers published by the com pany were the "Service Press", "Pacific Coast Metal Trades Worker", and "Pacific Coast Build ing Trades Worker."
