In heat ing stoves we have the largest as well as the most carefully selected stock in the city. The stoves we offer were not bought as an experi ment but as a certainty. We know what each stove will do, and they were bought for cash, so the price is right. We have special ties in heaters, beside our regular lines of Garland, Argand and Su perior stoves and ranges.

It was five feet in diameter at the large end and seven or eight feet long. The Oakland, Cal., insurance war is over, a compromise having been effected by the Compact and the New Zealand Insurance Co. The battle lasted twenty days, and in that time the income of the companies from Almeda county, owing to cut rates, fell from $3000- 000 to $100,000 per annum. Lieutenant E. II. Clarke, of Compalvy H. N. G. W., met with a sudden and terrible death Wednesday morning. While en-' gaged as setter in the Vancouver mill he fell across a big circular saw, which struck him- in the small of the back, terribly lacerating and almost cutting him in two. Though not instantly killed, he died a few hours later, slowly bleedinjr to death, the doctors not being able to stop the flow: M.

To Violate the Salmon Law. . It is, stated that a paper has been circulated among the fish dealers of Portland, in which they have agreed to buy ami sell salmon in violation of the law dur ing the dose season in March. It seems hardly probub o that any one interested in the future of Or egon's salmon industry would I bind himself to a such a compact. still, strange things have been known to happen when pecuniary matters are at stake. Salmon reaching the highest points in the titer, where the spawn is saved, are really the only fish that propa gate to advantage. For this reason the month of March lias been made a close seas jh by law. It is done for the preservation of the lish and to foster the salmon industry. The February freshet, it is said, has brought up the salmon earlier vhan usual, and in consequence the temptation to violate the law this year will be greater, than ever before. A New Departure. The representatives of the various lodges of Ancient Order of United Workmen of this grand district .have recommended the formation of a board of relief, winch plan has been referred to the lodges for their approval. Objects of the board are to provide rel Tef and assistance to al 1 members of the order in good stand iny coining into this district from any jurisdiction ; aHotorender pecu niary aid to all worthy Workmen; to care for them in sickness and bury them after death. It is also the purpose of this board to organ ize a la jor bureau to procure em ployment for members in need of work.

These deposits may be redeemed at any time on payment of the sum ad vanced and interest.

An Effort to Improve the Grade of Wil lamette Valley Wheat. Several weeks ago the Hkkai.d refeiied to a movement i-n Hie pari of home of t lie giain dealers of this city and farmers to improve the grade of the wheat o. the WiHam inette Valley by importing new seed. A car load of Australian white wheat imported esjei ially for seed has been receive.! in this city by the well known grain merchant, .Mr. V. F. Crosby, and it wid be distributed among the farmers. The cost of the wheat was consid erable, $l.h'D per biis4iei, biu it possesses superior qualities for both fall and spring sowing and will doubtless be sow 11 by farmers. A well posied w:. eat dealer 00 this suoject recently said that one great trouble now found is that in grinding valley, wheat it has de teriorated so much in the past few years that it requires more of it to make flour, and it is not as strong when made. There is no doubt 01 the fact that the whole wheat cf this valley requires a radical t hange, in order to bring it back U. what it was ten years ago. If we keep on as at present, growing the same wheat, in a few years more there will be nothing left for the mill to grind but a thick hu-k. The flour products will be so weak ard poor that we wi'l be unable to find a market for them. It is a serious matter and the fanners should realize at once that they must give it more attention, other wise they will be the losers to that extent. Eastern Oregon and Washington have made great strides in improving their wheat during the past few years. It is to be hoped that the valley farmers will take hold of it in the same liberal waj. The Australian white w heat has been tried to a limited extent. It is pronounced superior for milling purposes, the grain being harder and the bran is much thinner. In the Cow Creek Canyon. W. G. Curtis and Arthur Brown, superintendent of bridges and buildings on the Southern Pacific have gone to Cow Creek canyon, where they will meet Assistant General superintendent Pratt an Manager Koehler, of Portland, am determine the location of about nthree miles of new roadbed around the section where the buried track has been abandoned. The track has been cleared north to this big slide, and nlxnit ten miles of small slides and washouts remain on the north side. The stream has low ered the dam only about twenty- five feet, and what has been washed away has simply length ened the dam nearly two miles and created a new bed. for the stream, fifty feet higher than be fore and thirty feet above the buried track. How to get; the new track over this grade and through the canyon by the new route is the problem which the officials men tioned are going to solve. Until all this is done there will In? no through trains. The track will l;e constructed as quickly as possible, and in some places temporarily. Farm Kcsldence Burned. The residence of Uoliert McKl hiney,2 miles northwest cf this city in Benton county, caught fire at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon and burned to tiie ground, together with all the contents. Airs. El Uiney and the children were away visiting and Mr. McElhiney was some distance from the house at work, when it caught fire. A brisk wind was blowing, and noth ing was saved. Tbe remains of a silver watch w ere found completely melted in the ruins. Some valua ble papers were also destroyed. The loss is about $1000. The house was insured in the Farmers & Merchants' Ins. Co this city for $450. of Damage to Wheat Crops. Fears are entertained that the present cold weather will winter kill a great deal of wheat in the Willamette valley, there being no snow to protect 'the wheat. Tlie ground is frozen pretty hard, and whe ever the the 6un" can get a show to thaw the ground and it freezes at night the wheat -will be killed. Eastern Oregon fields are to a large extent . covered with snow, which will protect the wheat from harm. Tho Board of Trade. An effort is lieing made . to re organize the Albany Board of Trade or start a new one. The effort should lc successful. These are stirring times. There is a great tide of immigration towards Ore gon and there are many matters pertaining to the growth of the city which could be promoted by an actively working board of trade. Fine Halting. W. R.
