Hut our most
perspiring growler must be
shamed into
silence at Chicago's record of Sunday which
showed the record at 90 dcg. at 7 in the
morning and 102 deg. at noon, the hospitals
full of men prostrate and unconscious from the
heat, and a mortality list of sixty-two from its
fierce effects. Joliet, some fifty miles south
of Chicago, beat even this record, coming in
with 100 der at day break and 113 dcg. at
noon . Such a degree of heat as this, if it
does'not wholly prostrate people, renders them
so limp that breathing is a burden and sleep
impossible.
Religious. A gentleman of this city re
ceived information that Rev. T. J. Conner
will preach at the Tine Grove church on or
about the first Sunday in August, instead of
the last Sunday in July as has been announced.
The Rcy. Mr. Conner was the leader of the
first band of missionaries sent out by the U.
B. church to this coast . He was once elected
: acting bishop; was one of the principal
founders of riiilomalh college, and has filled
many other responsible positions in church
and educational work. He is one of the most
eloquent ministers, who haye visited this coast
and it is to be hoped that arrangements can
be made so that he may preach at least once
in Reseburg ere he Icayes for his present home
in Indianapolis.
The State Fair. The Oregon State
Fair will begin on September 12th and con
tinue for twelve days. Special efforts will
be made this year to make the fair more
successful than usual. For instance, a prize
of $150 will be given to the county making
the finest display of eheaf and shelled grain
and vegetables and fruit. The premiums on
industrial exhibits have been largely increased,
A prue of $560 is offered for the best drilled
militia company in the State. This will be a
specially interesting feature. The lollowing
named persons have horses on the fair grounds
which they are training for the races: T. 11.

Ovr Politest Bow. The Portland
News hits the nail square on the head in the
compliment to Oregon's country press and in
return in behalf of the fraternity The Review
doffs its hat and makes its politest bow. Here
is what the News says: "The character and
excellences of the country press of Oregon is
so high that of themselves they speak vol
umes of praise for the communities which
they represent. No one who investigates
this matter can fail to note their whole-souled
cloyahty and enthusiasm. Their existence
and outward evidence of prosperity afford a
tolerably accurate index to the condition of
the people. A paper is seldom better than
the community in which it is published de
mands. The majority of the country papers
of this State are away above the average of
.country journalism. They arc not only
newsy, but are edited by men who show
evidence of aptitude for their work by the
character of the news given and the bright
manner in which it is presented to their
readers. In editorial expression they are
always alive to the true interests of their
patrons."
School Money Distributed. Acting
in accordance with the directions of the
board of commissioners for the sale ol state
lands, Treasurer Webb is now engaged in
sending to the various county treasurers
their proportion of the state school mow 7,
which is the accrued interest on the irreduci
ble school fund . The amount to be disbursed
is over $87,400, just one dollar for each
person of school age in the slate. This is the
largest amount of school money which lias
ever been sent from the office of the state
treasurer. " Last year the amount averaged
90 cents, and this year's distribution counts up
10 cents more, as Btated. The irreducible
school fund is loaned out at an average of S
per cent:, and brings in a bout $90,000 per
year. The present fund, about $1,200,000,
is being increased at the rate of from $15,000
to $20,000 per month, from the sale of school
lands. Proportionately, Oregon lias one of
the largest school funds of any state in the
Union. With careful and judicious use of the
interest, it ought to be an easy matter for the
state to maintain its rank as having the second
n least percentage of illiterates in proportion
to its population. Statesman.

diculous shouting over the Kelly lynching,
and vecifenating the query, "Is Folk county

foulest crime that was ever committed in

been an attempt to defraud justice by allowing
Kelty to escape the meshes of the law.

the cleveland administration orders
wa6on road frauds investigated.
A Washington dispatch gives the pleasant
information that the present honest and vigor
ous national administration of public affairs
is to investigate the wagon road frauds in this
state. I The telegram reads as follows:
"The secretary of the interior has concurred
in the j recommendation of the commissioner
of thej general land office of May 10th last,
that a j commission be appointed to make a
thorough and exhaustive investigation of the
Willamette valley and Cascade mountain
wagon road, The Dalles military wagon load
and the Oregon Central wagon road, in the
state of Oregon, especially as to whether those
roads have been constructed, and whether or
not the certificates of the governor of the
completion of said roads were obtained by
false and fraudulent representations made by
parties interested in obtaining said lands. The
secretary has appointed John B. McNamc,
of Cleveland, Ohio, now of the adjutant gen
eral's office, to represent the department on
the commissien, and will soon appoint two
others to represent the general land office, on
recommendation of the commissioner. The
investigation . will be commenced early in
August. Complaint is made to the general
land office that neither of these wagon roads
have Ibeen completed according to law, al
though tbeir completion has been duly certi
fied to1 by a former governor of Oregon. The
grants to these roads aggrgate about 2,300,000
acres.!'
A DANGEROUS WEED,
OCR FARMERS SHOULD DECLARE WAR ON
blE HYPERICUM PERFORATUM.
A short time since, T. J . Singleton handed
C. Wj Johnston a very peculiar looking weed,
which, has grown veiy rank on Deer Creek
and is; spreading very rapidly. Mr. Johnston
sent the plant to Washington for investigation
and has just received the following reply:
, , Washington, D. C, July 14th.
Mr. C. W, Johnston, Roseburg, Oregon.
Dear sir: Your letter of the 6th inst. and the
package containing specimens of weed for
investigation have been duly received and
referred to the Botanist of the Department
who jrcports that the plant is botanically
called: Hypericum Perforatum, the common
Saint! John's wort, a common weed in the
Eastern slates, and quite difficult to cqtermi
nate. j Farmers should make war against it
upon ;ils first appearance, and prevent its
spreading. It is a native of Europe, but has
become extensively naturalized in this and
other countries. Respectfully,
Norman J. Colman, Comniissioner.
SAVE YOUR FRUIT.
SOME GOOD ADVICE TO FARMERS FROM A
I PRACTICAL SOURCE.
1
"Tell the people to dry and save their
fruit this year, as everything indicates that it
will bring a good price," is the remark of
one of the most wide-awake and best-posted
farmers to a Review reporter. We consider
this good advice aud present it to our many
country readers. The time is here in this
magnificent conntry ef ours, when everybody
should be on the high road to prosperity.
Cultivate diversified crops, pay more atten
tion"to your orchards. There's a fortune in
prunes. Eighteen pounds of dried fruit from
a green bushel.'at 10 cents per pound will
make $1.80 per bushel. Save your fruit,

An End to Hone Scraping. -Edward
Shcpard, of Harrisburg, 111., says:
Having received so much benefit from EleC
trie Bitters, I feel it my duty to let suffering

THE COUNTY FAIR.
a corrfpondent gives some interest
ing FACTS CONCERNING IT.
Editor Review: Having recently trav
eled through the southwestern portion of
Douglas county, I have noted the following
facts. Crossing at Winston's ferry, I found
large quantities of lumber and plank piled up
and other preparations being -made to com
mence the construction of the new county
bridge across the South Umpqua river. About
one mile from the ferry, I found several men
and teams at work on the new fair grounds.
Nature seems to have designed this place for
a publie park or fair ground. W. R. Wells
was superintending the work and expressed
great confidence in the ultimate success of the
cnlcqirise. I might hero mention that since
Mr. Wells became a consislent Prohi, the
peop e sptak very highly of him . Meeting
Mr. Brockway, who is president of the "Agri
cultural and Mechanical Union," of Douglas
county, I got the names of the officers of the
association. Mr. Brockway is an old settler
and a well-to-do fanner having served this
county in the state legislature, and also as
commissioner, II, Lenox, the secretary,
is a young, energetic farmer and a graduate
of Portland Business College. The financial
agent is James Byron, a French gentleman
from Cork, whose energies were developed in
the charging squadrons of Phil Sheridan, and
will not now be repulsed by an Oregonian
his business is to sell stock and he sells it.
The company's treasurer was well chosen, it
is James Davlin, a successful prudent farmer
and financier, James Dillard, W. C. Wins
ton and Jeptha Green are of the board of
managers. They are strong, honest successful
men. So you see, Mr. Editor, that with such
men as thote for leaders the first county fair
must be a great success .
OTHER ITEMS.
Throughout Civil Bend, Olalla, Ten Mile
and Camas V?lley the spirit of enterprise can
be observed everywhere. The crops are gen
erally good, work very plentiful and money
more easily got than in the recent past. In
that particular portion of Douglas county
there are without doubt some live active farm
ers. Last week, I am told, frost visited
Camas. Valley and injured some Hardens,
George Smith having fifteen acres of corn
bitten.
Great surprise is. expressed on account of
the failure of the county road from Looking
Glass to Lenox's gate in Civil Bend. Get up
j your petition again, boys, the people almost
unanimously favor your road. Circulate your
petition out and you will certainly succeed.

EAST PORTLAND.
BRIGHT PROSPECTS REPORTED FOR THAT
ENTERPRISING CITV.
The Review is always pleased to speak a
good word for any neighboring city, and
calls attention to the glowing great expecta
tions of East Portland, as voiced by the Star
of that place. Here is the item:
"East Portland is probably the most pros
perous town in Oregon. It has excellent
manufacturing facilities and such have but
recently been placed to a practical test. As
a location for residence, it offers many excep
tional inducements, and in view of the fact
that many Portlanders whose business is loca
ted on the other side prefer a residence in
East Portland, it is but a matter of little time
when ours wdl be the city. In the course of
a few months, East Portland will be illumin
ated with electric lights, and haj-e railroads
connecting with all places in our vicinity.
New busfness will spring up, and every avail
able space will be occupird by thrill and toil.
Our enterprising ferry company will ma a line
of horse cars to Selwood, Vancouver and Al.
bina, not ignoring Mount Tabor, and many
other places. Wc can likewise reasonably
expect to sec Oregon City and East Portland
united by a street railway, and pleasant ex
cursions and picnic resorts located between
the; wo cities. We will guarantee a remun
erative return upon any investment in East
Portland, that cannot be equalled elsewhere.
Many eastern capitalists seeking investments,
will find a richer harvest in store for them in
our locality, than in any other part of the
country. Now is the time, and the watch,
word "invest !"
THE OREGON PACIFiC.
A CONTRACT LET FOR ITS COMPLETION TO
THE CASCADE SUMMIT.
The contract has been let for the work of
construction on the Oregon Pacific railroad
eastward of Albany to the summit of the Cas
cade mountains. Contractor Nelson Bennett,
who has been engaged in railroad work on
the Northern Pacific secured the contract for
the construction of 40 miles of the new road.
It is expected that the work of construction
will commence at the cast bank of the South
Santiam river, follow the line of the perma
nent localiou to and across the crossing of the
North Santiam to a point constituting a dis
tance of about thirty in iles . Then starting
from a point in the Cascade mountains, in the
pass known as Hogg Tass, and thence west
ward along the line of the permanent location
for a distance of ten miles, including such
additional work as shall be designa ted by the
general manager w ithin thirty days from date
of contract, eastward from the end of the
first thirty miles. It is expected that the work
of construction will commence as soon as the
tools and appliances can be forwarded to the
front. The work is to be pushed to comple
tion as rapidly as possible and consequently
will give employment to a great many men.
Track-laying has already commenced on
the portion of the road already graded be
tween Albany and the Santiam. A force of
75 extra Chinamen were also put on and this
portion of the road will be completed imme
diately, in order to furnish means of transport
ing the materials for work on the road east

FOR BUSY READERS.
ARCHBlaHOP SEGHERS KILLED CROP OUT
LOOK OIL WQRKS BURNED WHEAT
BURNED -THE HOT WAVE.
ARCHBISHOP SECHERS KILLED.
Information has just come to San Francisco
by the latest Alaska steamer, that the Catho
lic Archbishop, Charles J. Seghers, formerly
ot Oregon, was shot and killed on the Vukon
river by a traveling companion named Fuller.
It appears that the fwo men, accompanied by
a party of Indians, in November last were
traveling in the wilds of Alaska. On the
27th day of that month, says one of the In
dians, Fuller became morose and quarrelsome,
and desired to caml. at a certain place, but
the Bishop acted on the advice of the Indians
and the party moved on. Fuller complained
that n.ore attention was paid to the Indians
than to him. He talked about it constantly.
In the morning Fuller arose first and said:
"Bishop, get up!" The Bishop lifted his head
and half arose,, when Fuller shot him with a
rirle, the bullet struck squarely in the fore
head, killing instantly. One of the Indians,
being awake, saw it all, and secured the mur
derer, who will be taken to Sitka for trial.
When interviewed by priests he confesses his
crime and cries about it. Fuller was formerly
a watchmaker in Portland and went to Alaska
with the Archbishop. Most Reverend Charles
John Seghers was born in Belgium, December
29i 1839, ordained a priest in 1863; moved to
Victoria in the same year; appointed adminis
trator of Vancouver Island in 187 1 and Bishop
in 1873; made a missionary tour of Alaska in
1878, accomplishing much goed; appointed
coadjutor to Archbishop Blanchet in 1878,
and succeeded him in 1880; resigned in 1883,
and went for further missionary work to Alaska
in July 1SS6. At Rome he had received a
special blessing from Tope Pius IX, and had
been twice invested with, the pallium.
Archbishop Seghers once lectured before
the Philalathean literary society in this city on '
the subject, "Tiuth." He was an able man,
an eloquent speaker and universally beloved.
THE CROP OUTLOOK.
The drought throughout the northwestern
states injured all crops more or less. Corn,
although not materially damaged so far, is
coinmeucing to show the effects of the dry
season, and must suffer considerably if rain
does not fall soon in sufficient quantity. As
a result of the drought the oat ctop is ripen
ing too fast, and, without rain, will hardly
make three-quarters of a crop. Estimates of
the average yield in different states of winter
wheat is as follows: Illinois, 15 bushels per
acre; Indiana, 15; Kansas, 17 in some coun
ties, much lighter in others and the average
will be very poor; Kentucky, 13; Missouri, 19;
Wisconsin, 17; Ohio reports a good crop, but
no figures are given. The spring wheat re
port indicates an average of 72 per cent, with
almost a total failure on account of insects in
six counties in Iowa; in Minnesota, 71 per
cent; in Nebraska, 84 per cent; in Dakota, 89
per cent. Throughout the states mentioned,
pastures are suffering from lack of rain. Po
tatoes and apples do not promise much more
than a half crop. Hay will hardly reach that
figure.
1,100,000 r.USHEL OF WHEAT BURNED.
The St- Anthony elevator, triple structure,
theiargest in the Northwest, located on the
Manitoba road, two miles cast of Minneapolis,
was totaHy destroyed by fire, Tuesday night,
together wtrh-eentents, about 1,100,000 bush
els of wheat. Loss on building and machinery
will be about $250,090, on grain $825,000;
fully insured. The wheat destroyed was one
tenth of the visible supply of the Northwest
outside of Duluth. The origin of the fire
is unknown . Two watchmen were on duty
in the engine-room, but cannot tell the
causa. .

STANDARD Oil. WORKS ON KIKE.
Fire in the Standard Oil Company's works at
Constable Hook N. J. broke out at I2:30oclock
Wednesday morning. The flames rapidly
spread and at three o'clock the barrel factory,
supply house and warehouses w;cre entirely
consumed, and the sulphur factory of T. &
S. White's was on fire and the whole town
was threatened. The loss has reached $1,000,-
000.
THE HOT WAVE.
Saturday and Sundays were the hottest days
ever experienced in Chicago and throughout
Illinois, West Virginia, Indiana, Michigan,
Missouri, Pennsylvania and Ohio, the ther
mometer indicating from 100 to 113 degrees
in the shade. Hundreds of people were
prostrated, some two hundred dying. There
has been nothing like it for thirty years.
The Beginning of the End.
The beginning of disease is a slieht debility
or disorder of some of the vital organs, the
stomach, the liver or the bowels usually.
There are dyspeptic symptoms, the liver is
troublesome, the skin grows tawny and un
healthy looking, there are pains in the right
side 01 through the right snoulder blade. The
climax is often an utter prostration of the phy
sical energies, perhaps a fatal issue. But if

Stomach Bitters, which is always effective as
a remedy, and it should be resorted to at an
early stage, there will be no reason to appre
hend those injurious sulsequcnt effects upon
the system often entailed by entirely cured
diseases. Far better is it also, to employ this
safe remedial agent in fever and ague, and
other malarial complaints, than quinine and
other potent drugs, which, even when they
do prove effectual for a time, ruin the stomach
aad impair the general health.

AN ANSWER DEMANDED,
Is There Hidden Cause for Most Soft
fertng? A Careful Invest!
Uod.
TUe inhabitants of Boston and New
England bave been considerably awak
ened the past week over some important
facts which have come out in articles in
the papers as to the real cause of most
modern diseases. Every one has known
that there has been some mysterious
cause for unexplained suffering that even
the doctors could not account for. A
bidden disease has been shown to be the
real cause of most so called pneumonia,
convulsions, apoplexy, etc. If this is
27 true, it is ot greatest
importance that we un
derstand it tl10rou2h.lv.
iWith this end in view,
p a representative 01 mis
paper has collected
v c a c t s from various
sources wnicn are
L given herewith.
Dr. J. 1L Cutler,
Vy who resides at 20
reporter and Topular street, said:
doctor. "I have, in common
with all physicians, observed the alarm
ing increase of kidney diseases leading
to that fearful scourge, Bright's disease,
and have been constantly seeking for
the proper means of meeting it. I have
been prescribing Hunt's Ketnedy for a
great many of my patients with great suc
cess. I also administered it to my
mother, and with much benefit."
Mr. Samuel Littlefield, 148L Washing
ton street, said : "I was troubled with
kidney disease for years, which finally
turned to gravel. I" would be free from
Buffering for a long while, and then have
the most terrible pains in my back. I
also had inflammation of the worsts kind
in my bladder, and I was altogether in
a fearful condition. I went to several
physicians, but all to no purpose, and I
found I was growing very feeble. A ...
friend in Maiden urged me to use Hunt's
Kemedy. He had been cured of gravel
and liver complaint by its use, aud be
lieved it would help me. Well, its effect
was wonderful, ana I cannot too highly
thank my friend for the timely recom
mendation he made. I wish I could
make every one know and understand
what a valuable medicine it is."
Mrs. Wm. Gray, 1416 Tremont street,
said: "I was troubled with kidney dis
ease for a number of years, at times be
ing so bad from swollen limbs and pains
in the back that I was completely under
the doctor's care. I received only tem
porary benefit until I began using
Hunt's Remedy, which cured xne en
tirely, and I cannot say too much in its
favor."
Captain Joseph L.IIayden, connected
with the Walworth Manufacturing Com
pany, residing at v2i East rourth gtreeff
r-outn isoston, spoke
in the highest terms
of Hunt's Remedy.
"Many of my friends
in Enfield, Mass.,'
have used it with
unusual results, and
would not be without
it, I employed it in
my family when other
remedies had proved
wholly useless, and it
was remarkable in its
results. It completely
cured my wife of pain
in tne back." well wmiorT ; dy-
Mr. II. Burney, rxa within.
baggagemaster of the Eastern Railroad,
declared that he had used Hunt's Iiemedy
in his family for a long time, and would
not be without it. He had not only
found it good for kidney complaints (a
trouble with which all railroad men re
mpre or less afflicted) but his wife had
used it successfully in a severe case of
what was, apparently, dyspepsia.
The uniform testimony which was
g'ven to the worth of this Remedy U
oston was born out by equally stronf
statements from residents in the sub
urbs. Mr. Jqseph cl. Bicknell of Cambridge
port asserted that he had been a great
sufferer. The fluids he passed were thick
with brick dust sediment, and were
voided with the greatest pain. Within
four days from the time he began using
Hunt's Remedy he passed a gravel stone
larger than a pea followed by other
smaller ones. A speedy cure was the
result, and he cannot recommend the
remedy too highly.
Mr. George P. Cox, proprietor of the
last factory at Maiden, had seen such
wonderful effects of Hunt's Remedy
among so many of his relatives and
friends that he was enthusiastic in its
favor. He had not only used it himself
with the greatest benefit, but two cousins,
William W. and John F. Cox, had ex
perienced untold relief, lie would not
be without it if it cost $5 a bottle.
Such statements lead us to the inev
itable conclusion that, while Brisrht's
disease of the kidneys is the concealed
and actual cause of many complaints
which bear other names, it can be both
met and cured. Let all readers look to
their condition at once, and thoroughly
convince themselves whether they are
or are not in perfect health, and then
use that means which has been proven,
and is known to be both pure, efficient,
and good. '
