small thing like war does not affect
Butts or his real estate business, but
be keeps right on in tbe even tenor of
his way selling property and putting
more bargains on bis books while the
average agent is negotiating for a
large piece of ground sufficient to hide
himself from view when the first gun
shall be fired. Butts has plenty of
time to sacrifice war talk for business
and any one calling on him will find

C. M. Donaldson, of Baker City,
nomin-e for congress in the second
district, has been a prominent republi
can all his life, and has attende every
republican state convention held in
Oregon during the past ten years, but
refused to accept the St. Louis plat
form, and with many other tnemhp.rs
of his party chose to follow the lead of
Senator Teller. Mr. Donaldson was
born in New York 52 yea s ago and
for the past ter or twelve years has
been interested in mining operations
in Baker county.
FARMERS ARE PROSPEROUS.
Everything la the Fsrmlne; Commaotty
Displays Gnel Thrift.
Emile Schanno, member of the state
board of horticulture for this district,
has just returned from q-iite an exten
sive lour among the farmers and fruit
growers of Eight and Fifteen mile,
ana says he noted uncommon evi
dences of thrift among the residents
of those sections.
The fruit growers. Mr. Schanno
say-', are d -vting more attention to
the care of th -ir orchards than ev-r
before. Their trees generally are in
.healt'iv condition, and wherever thev
show disease they ar being sprayed,
and every precaution is being taken to
eradicate pests. In s me places San
Jose s -ale has m de its appearance,
but in all instances orchardists are
making vigorous war against this
pest. The cold nights of the
past few weeks, Mr. benanno
thinks, have been rather mo e
beneficial than detrimental, as on ac
count of the cold weather fruit buds
have been kept back, and will not
Dlooin until the proper season.
The grain farmers Mr. Schanno
found well along with their spring
work. About ail the ground has been
plowed, an i the greater portion of the
seeding has been completed. This is
a month earlier than seeding is usually
finished, as the grain is not generally
all sown before Mav 1st. Fall grain
everywhere be found looking fine, and
promising to yield an abundant croo.
He says as a rule farmers appear to be
more prosperous than for many years
past, and their farms present a thrifty
appearance.
To ThosoComlnc to Aak or the Klon

One thing should be impressed upon
every miner, prospector or trader com
Ing to Aiaska. to tbe Klondike, or the
Yukon country, and tnat is the neces
sity for providing an adequate and
proper food supply. Whether procur
ed in the Stales, in the Dominion, or
at the supply stores here or further on
this must be his primiry concern
Upon the manner in which the miner
has observed or neglected this precau
t-ion more than upon any other one
thing will his success or failure de
pend.
These supplies must be healthful
and should be concentrated, but the
mast careful attention in the 'election
of food that will keep unimpaired in
definitely under all the condition?
which they will have to encounter is
imperative. For instance, as breat'
raised with baking powder must he re
lb d upon for the chief part of every
meal, imagine the hel-dessness of a
miner with a can of spoiled baking
powder. Buy only the very best fiou--:
it is the cheapest in the end. Exper
ience has shwn the Rival Bikinr
Po dpr to be the most reliable and
the trading companies now uniformly
snp'ily this brand, ar others will not
keep in this c'imate. Be sure that the
bacon is sweet, sound and thoroughlv
cured. These are the absolute neces
sities upon which all must place a
chipf reliance, and can under no cir
cumstances be neglct.el. They may,
of eoursp, be supplemented by as many
comforts of del icaci a as the prosper.

railroad track. Mr. Driver f.oind 'he
little misses and learned from them
thpt they had determined to go to
Heppner, whe e. they claimed their
father lived, and being without means
were traveling on f.iot. They refused
to iive t.h Ir names or that, of their
father, so Mr. Driver's s-ispictons were
a-onsed and' he took the girls into
custody. They were brought to The
Dalles by boat, and lodged at the Col
umbia hotel, but this morning slipped
away, and were not overtaken until
fiey had reached Seufert's cannery,
three miles above town.
The girls at first refused to give
their names, but it was finally learned
that they are Mamie and Ma el Dante,
and that they are aged 16 and 14 years
respecti ely. They claimed to have
formerly lived at Albany, and that on
account of trouble between t.hir par
ents they left home. Both acknowl
edged they had been leading a life of
shame, and from their general appear
ance are decidedly bad girls for their
age. Sheriff Driver is still holding
them, with the hope of ascertaining
who their parents are. If their par
ents cannot be located they will be
placed in charge of some reform institution.
