Celebration at Scnppoose.
There id to be'a grand celebration of
the 4th. of July on the Upper Scappoose
at Watts' Grove. The different States
will be represented by young ladies on
horseback. Everything possible will be
done to make the ctlebration a success.
All are requested to bring any amount
lunch to feed the multitude. Whatever
else you forget, don'c forget to bring
full baskets.
The local trade movement has contin
ued fairly satisfactory during the past
week. Steamers and trains have brought
and taken good freights, and, except for
the downward tendency of wheat and
wool, the situation is hopeful. The
weather in this section hss been all that
could possibly be desired for filling out
the small fruits. Cherries especially are
in a splendid condition, and considerable
shipments of thenf, in boxes,' cfiroct to
New York are being made by local deal
ers. The grain crops of the Valley are
still reported to bo thriving under the
infiaence of warm showers. The reason
h considered to far advanced to exneea
rain in the upper country, but cloudy
weather will shield wheat and insure an
average yield. The spring freshet ap
pears to have rexched its height. All
ricrs are steadily tailing with no appar
ent probability of any higher water.
The overflow has been couliucd to the
very low uncultivated lands. There
will be a good hay crop in Oregon and
Washington this year.
The prospects appear to be good for
the forfeiture of the railroad land in Co
lumbia and Clatsop counties, a bill to
that effect having passed the House with
every prospect of its passing the Senate.
Tlie foriiiture of thi. land would give
Columbia couiuty a big boom, as it would
open up to settlement an immense a
mount of the best land , in the country,
and would be tho means of bringing in
to the county, not lsss than one thousand
people the coming year.
The Oregon Railway and Navigation,
the Oregon Transcontinental and the
Oregon improvement companies have re
elected their old Boards of Directors,
with a few exceptions. Nothing trans
pired at the elections to indicate any
change of oliey in regard to the North
ern Pacific's relations with the Oregon
Railway and Natiardtidn Company.
The work of ballasting the railroad
track from Portland to Iva'ama is stead
ily progressing. It is expected that the
track will be finished by the middle of
next month, by which time the big trans
fer boat will be completed.
The hay crop of the United States is
50,000,000 tons, which at $10 a ton. is
worth 500,000,030. Hay is king and
not cotton. Journal cf Commerce
Hon. W. D. Hare, senator elect of
Washington county, paid us a visit this
week. Senator Hare will be a stirring
leader In the coming assembly. His f-i-milliarity
with the politics of the coun
tty, his acquaintance with eminent states
men of the day, his sound and logical
reasoninir. his stirliiicr worlU as a tried
republican, make him a distinguished
and dignified member of the Oregon
senate. As an available candidate in
the perplexing times of the session,
presuming such to again occur, when
it becomes necessary to choose a suc
cessor to Hon. James 11. Slater; none
can be mentioned more favorably than
the name of Hon. W. D. Hare. Should
he become the chosen successor to repre
sent Oregon, in the senate cfthc United.
States, the business community would
feel a confidence that the wants of the
state would not be more certainly at
tended to for the next six years, cor
tle!r immediate interests more credita
bly repreieailed by any other person.

Crossing the magnificent bridge at
Ellsworth on snakes rivef, 15 miles from
the J unction, we arrived at Sprajfue at
5 f., where we stepped over oTiecfay
and prospected the town. Population
alxmt 1000, two hotels, Masonic hall, 10
stores, schoolhouse, 2 churches, printing
office, 2 saw mills,' and a line larpe brew

its nam;? from Gen. Sprague, and is flic
headquarters of the Idaho division, with
round houses and machine Shops.

and four churches. It is situated in the
plateau of the Columbia, 23 feet above
level of .the sea ; game and fish in abun
dance, Spokane Fall., W. T. is beautifully
situated on the south side of the Spokane
river, in the Idaho division of the N. P.
and has a population of 3000 ; has four
hotels, two banks, two publi; halls, forty
stores, three schools, five churches, two
saw mills, grist mill and machine shops;
a daily stage leares for th mines; the
surrounding country is diversified roll
ing prairie and timber land; produces
grain and fruits; is fast settling up.
Rathdrum, Idaho, a small town 11
miles from Fort Cceur d'Alene, a popu
lation o00; has good water works, two
hotels, three stores, schoolhouse and
printing ofiico and a daily stage to the
mines.'
Heron, Montana, a small town on
Clirk's Fork river, population about300;
has five stores and a fine hotel built by
the compan'7. It is the junction of the
Rocky Mountain nd Idaho divisions,
has important machine shops and is a
splendid place for tourists to spend a
few days hunting and fishing. The new
.standard time is made at Heron, conse
quently our watch was an hour slow from
the Dalles time.
Belknap, Montana, situated on Clark's
fork of the Columbia, is a small town
with a population of 200; lias two hotels,
two stores, public hall, printing office,
and church go vd quartz and placer
mines distant about four miles; fish aiid
game are in abundance.
Thompson's Falls, a small town situa
ted on Clark's Fork river, population
200, and is the fitting out place for the
Cceur d'Alene mines, distant about 30
miies. All kinds of miners' supplies can
b? obtained at moderate rates.
From Mr. Snow, a merchant from
ChicagOj who lias been through the
mines I learn that reports iii ftlatio:i to
the richness and extent cf tho mines
have not been cxagerated in the least;
that the numerous gulches emptying
into Piictbard's creek are all very rich
and prospect from 73 cents to $'3 to the
pan. Mr. Snow lias purchased about
5000 of beautiful course cold, among
which a nugget valued at $200 and a
number of smaller ones, from $3 to 820.
He says time will prove that these mines
will prove as rich and extensive as Cal
i'oruia in early day.i.
We learn that on election day a cloud
burt occurred at Fossil, doing consider
able damage to gardens, fences and crops.
The water continued its destructive
course down the creek for three miies,car
rying almost everythingwith it,and wash
ing out Mrs, Dyer's butteryj she losing
30 pans and 100 poundi of butter. The
rusli c'f water was sudden, and did all
its damage in a few mimutes.
The West Shore for Jun, 1SS4 is a

In our visit down the river Mouday,
says the Dalles Mou Maimer, we learned
at the locks that there seven men now
employed on this public improvement.
The outer walls of the canal are nearly
completed, and the approach to the foot
of the locks is made accessible for boats.
If a liberal appropriation was given at
the present session of Congress, this en
terprise would hive been pushed far to
wards completion. At the present rate
of Government aid extended to tlie pros
ecution of work on this enterprise, it
will take several years before they are
completed, but with any liberality dis
played by Coiigrjss, in three or four
years boats can course from The Dalles
to seaboard without interuption.
Hon. T. A. McBride's majority in
this district is nearly 1,000, thereby

The above is a program rtio cf the ex
ercises at the entertainment of the W.
C. T. U. on las'; Sunday night: The
Band of Hopj arrayed in stars and
scarfs made a gran J promenade with a
line banner which was carried by Frank
Meeker. There was some disappoint
ment about irettinf! tenor, alto and bass
singers, but by the assistance of Miss
Helena llo'man that part of the exer
cises passed off ciile satisfactorily the
congregation taking hold heartily rind
with a vim. Tha Band of Hope sang
well, they exhibited so much life and
spit it. Tlie solo hf Misi Holman was
executed with much taste and beauty,
the other singing appeared to pleise al!,
Mrs. Drew, who sang soprano, doing her
pai-t well and in crod tase. Wc never
saw the church trimmed with so much
be uty. Th'.i pulpit was covered with
vases of flpwers, and on each side- in
front were pyramids of ilowers, so tho
speakers stood in a lloi al bower, so to
speak. This part of the success is due
to the efforts of Mr.s. Moore, Mrs. Grey
and Mrs. Cox. Mr?. Conyfj Mrs,
Davis and other ladies contributed beau
tiful bouquets. The speeches, readings
tfce. ttc. spoke for themselves, and the
repeated cheering showed they were du
ly appreciated.
Dr. Moore's horse hot long since got
badly frightened at the cry of a cougar
broke its halter, ami inflicted on itself
sevtre bruises. It was in a barn near
tho edce. of town. Mr. Watkins iad
hauled of! a dead calf to no greit dis
tance: this had attracted the cougar, and
it was either disgusted at its fare, or
callimr for company. We opine the
same cougar followed ours.i'f and wife
when we returned homo from the ice
cream festival; perhaps it preferred a
live man to a dead oaif No accounting
for tastes !
Messrs. Quick, Dillard and Tcdford
were lately out to Nehalem Valley.
About 4 miles from anv sett'emeht on

They were very much surprised. They
have since; learned it was a Mis3 Adams

THE WORLD OF AGRICULTURE
The Agricultural World, one of
the
lest, if not the best, farm papers of
its class, is making a great success of the
plan inaugurated-by its editor a few
years rtg'o. This plan is nothing less than
tho; giving of exhaustive articles by the
ll(.st writers on agriculture in all the
Lnm.rrips of tlm world. The articles from
tVoJ different States and Territories of
our own country are particular! v enter
taining and instructive. Judgei Par-
rish's articles on "The Farmer's relation
to Law are alone worth the prne of the
paper. Judge ParriS.V, who is one of
thej ablest Judges and lecturers in the
West, will soon leave for tho South,
with the view of supplying tho paper
with a series of articles on the agricultu-
ral features of tha. section. This jour-
ual also has a line household department
which makes it particularly attractive to
lady readers. The price of the Agri
cultural World (now in its tnth; year)
is only One Dollar per annum (2G uiim-
bers). In clubs of five, 80 cent!-; each, j
