Dalles Lodge, No Z, I. O. G. T., gave
a'n interesting entertainment and fes
tival at their hall In the Vogt block

The U.. S..cr.uispr. Philadelphia, Rear
Admiral L. A. Beardslee's flag ship,
arrived at Portland - last Saturday
morning, and will remain in that port

Ben Wilson and family returned
yesterday from a week's outing on the
head waters of Fifteen-Mile. Mr. Wil
son reports having had an enjoyable
time,' and eays on his return to the city
he passed through the farming section
in the vicinity of Dufur. and it is bis
opinion that the. scare about a failure
of crops is largely imaginative. ' The
fields he says do not look as well as he
has scan them, but he believes the
yield will be greater than - many
imagine.
Reports received last week from the
grain fields of , Wasco county were
anything but encouraging, the general
belief being that not more than half a
crop would be harvested! but Bince the
-west winds have brought a curtain of
smoke over the country the outlook is
not so bad. In some,, localities the
grain has revived wonderfully during
the past few days- and with" anything
line favorable weather, .will: make, a
good yield. ' Especially is this the case
in the section east of The Dalles, be
tween' here and - Deschutes. Chas.
Schutz was out -in that section
'yesterday ' 'and "reports having
seen a number ot wheat fields
in which the" grain is five feet high,
has a good color, and is apparently
filling well. .. -

There is an interesting fact in Port
land journalism. The Welcome, which
has heretofore been democratic, is now
standing in with the Wall street ticket.
while the Mercury, which has been
republican, is.now speaking for the

silver. Thus times are working great

that work would be resumed on the
canal, he thought, about August 1st,
or as &oon as the water had receded
sufficiently that the canal between the
upper guard gate and the lock gate,
can be drained of water.
The engineers have - determined to
construct walls of solid m isonry be
tween the upper guard and lock gates,
and it is estimated that these walls can
becompleted-in two or three months.
The construction of the-se alls will be
under the Supervision of Day Bros.,
on the bat-is of their former contract
for similar work.
A force of from 50 to 63 men will be
put on thestone work wi.bin two weeks
and the building of the walls will be
pushed to completion. Then the work
of rip-rapping the outer bank on the
river sido will be commenced, and it Is
estimated that six months will be re
quired to complete the entire job.
Since the engineers department have
determined to construct the inner
walls of masonry, there is probably no
appeal from their decision, aud as this
work will require from two to three
months, there is not a very hopeful
prospect of the locks being opened to
traffic in time to move this season's
crop of wheat.

I jay cook for silver.
Tha Veteran Financier Kxccr for the Re
. .stontloa of the White Metal.
Jay Cook, who at one time was con
sldered among the brightest financiers
in ' America, and wno successfully
placed millions of gove-nment bonds
during the civil war, was interviewed
in Philadelphia a few days since, and
expressed a strong sentiment for the
remonetization of silver.
Whatlsyouropinlon of free silver?"'
was the first question asked.
"The opposiiton to the free coinnge
of silver." he replied, "is a crime, a
miserable crazy notion. If I had the
doing of It. there would be no room for
a gold bugin this country. The single
gold standard would ruin the country:
positively ruin it. I have seen in my
time silver superior in value to gold,
and its depreciation has been caused
by its demcnetiz ition. The silver
dollar was the unit of value until 1873,
when there was a 3 per-cent premium
on the metal. At that time the value
of silver was 3 per cent more than than
that of gold."
"What effect did this have on coin
age?" ...
"There was no bullion presented for
coinage except that which the govern
ment was compelled to buy to furnish
subsidiary coin. We are growing, and
have been growing rapi'oly, and we
need all that we can get as a basis of
value. We need both gold and silver.
Government credit, ' bu-iness credit,
both are based on their metallic ability
to pay.
"The most terrible thii.g of all was
In 1873, when silver was demonetized,
which was done under a delusion.
You will find that most of the senator's
and representatives did not dream
that they were about to demonetize
silver. They had no such desire.
Tnen, insteid of righting their mis
take they passed the Bland bill. The
whole history of it is vile aud out
rageous. "Just think of the fearful danger the
farmersstand in," continued Mr. Cook.
"If they knew it. they would rise in
their might and sweeo away those
devilish politicians and gold bu-s."
"But Mr. Cook, in case of five coin
asre, what about the 53 cent dollar?"
"That's all humbug," be replipd.
"Wasn't a silver dollar worth $1.03
before they demonetized silver?- As I
have said, I have seen the time when
silver was worth more than (fold. At
the time of the enormous California

Bow tu Protect Orchards and Tint-yards
From Them,
For a number of years past grass
hoppers have done immense damage
not only to eraiu fields throughout the
country but have almost ruined many
orchards and have utterly destroyed
gardens in different localities. Uow
to protect their orchards and gardens
from these marauders has been a ques-
i tion to which many f rmers have given
considerable study, but so far . as we
know, the experiments thus tar tried
in this vi -inity hive availed but little.
The best me tho Is for destroying the
locust, or grasshopper, h.n'e been
closely.studied by the U S. depart
ment of agriculture, and it has been
f mnd, by years of experimenting, that
the most ' successful method is by
poisoning A pamphlet issued by the
department, treating Oi the locu.-t,
gives the following as a remedy that
has been successfully used u the vine
yards of California, and if applied in
the orchards of this section, wou.d
likely prove effectual:
'A remedy that has been successful
in destroying locusts consists of a cer
tain proportion of bran, arsenic, sugar,
and water. These have been used in
different proportions, but the one that
appears to giye the best results con
sists of one part by weight of arsenic,
one of sugar and one of bran, to which
is added a Sufficient quantity of water
to make a wet mash.
"This preparation is usually pre
pared in wash tubs or half-barrels,
One of these is filled about three
fourths. full of dry bran, and to this is
added about 5 pounds of arsenic, which
is thoroughly stirred through the bran
with a spade or shovel. Five pounds
of sugar is next thrown into a pail,
which is then filled with water und
the sugar stirred until it is disolved,
when this sugar water is added to the
bran and arsenic and the three well
stirred, more water is added and' ti e
stirring continued until every portion
of the mash becomes thoroughly satu
rated.
About a teaspoonful of this mash is
placed at the root of each tree, shrub.
or plant infested with locusts, dropping
it in the shade when this can be done.
In the case ot low shrubs or plants
nothing more need be done, as the
locusts will find their way to the
poison, but when large trees are
treated the locusts should be jarred
out of them, or be driven oat with
long poles."
