SENATOR MITCHELL'S DENIAL.
In oar Friday's issue we will
take pleasure in publishing a com
plete denial by lion. John EL
Mitchell, that he has authorized
aDyon to announce that he would
be a candidate for re-election to
the United States senate either at
this special or the next legislature.
The injustice heaped upon Senator
Mitchell by the Oregonian and the
presistent reiteration by untruth
ful and ignorant classes through
out the state that it was ''Mitchell
and his supporters who held up
the legislature," will be clearly de
monstrated and the resonsibility
traced to Simon, Corbett and other
true leaders of the legislative hold
up, who are now on parade as the
only true republicans of the state.
THE GERMAN SCHEME.
That Germany would ultimately
take a hand in the disposition of
the Philippines has not been
doubted since Dewey's victory
gave the Americans a foothold
there. We may be able to bluff
the GermanB by centering at the
islands a superior force, and thus
avoid a conflict But what will
happen if the bluff don't work?
Is our country in the habit of sub
mitting to foreign aggressions,
however strong and powerful?
American principles and interests
must be sustained. Germany's
action in surveying the island of
Gebu is as auch an infraction of
international law as the survey of
Government island, or San Fran
cisco bay. The title to the Phil
ippines is not settled yet, and will
not be until the treaty of peace is
signed and ratified. Neither Spain
nor the United States has tharight
to grant privileges to another na
tion. Until title is quieted the
United States is bound to protect
the islands from encroachment.
As Germany is the only nation
from which the government appro
bends trouble in the settlement of
the Thilippine question, it is to
avert the commitment of an overt
act that the president determined
to so strengthen Itear-Admiral
Dewey'B command as to make it
BUpenor to the Gorman fleet in
Asiatio waters. The battle-ships
Oregon and Iowa will start for Ma
nila via Cape Horn and Honolulu
next Saturday or Sunday, by which
time it ib expected all repairs will
nave bon made and tho fluet o
colliers will be in readiness. In
addition to these ships the war de
partmnnt has ordeml the Fifty
lirst Iowa, Twelfth Kansas, Firm
lonnosHoe, lirst Washington ru
rncruita for the Second Oregon to
Manila at once. .Lvidentlv Amer
ican interests are to be protected
and Germany will have to back
down or fight. Telephone-Kog

WEEKLY CHOP BULLETIN.
The following is the weekly bulletin
for tbe ktkle of Oregon, ending Septem
ber 2fith. furnished Ibe Gazette by B. 8.
Pugne:
WEHTFKS ORIOOM.
Weather. The mean temperature for the
week averaged 62 degree, which wai 4 deg.
lower than (or the preceding week and (or the
corresponding week o. last year. The highest
temperature during the week wai78deg.,on
Sunday, and the lowest 44 dcg., on Friday. Rain
(ell on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday in
amount from 1 to 1.75 inches.
Crops. The rain was of benefit and yet ot
some injury. The benefits were, it softened the
ground and allowed the commencement ol (all
plowing and seeding; it started the grass and
improved pastures. The injury was only to the
prune crop; it caused the prunes to drop too
rapidly and cracked some, though the damage
will hardly be appreciable. Prune drying con
tinues to be active; the crop is so large that
there are not sufficient dryers to bundle it. Late
peaches and pears are ripening. The vegetable
crop is excellent. Digging o( potatoes is now in
progress.
Hoppicking is completed. The season was
very favorable to the growth and maturing o(
the hop crop. Hop drying and baling is now in
progress.
Harvest of all products is practically com
pleted. Late fruit is being picked and shipped.
Grapes are ripening. The grass is turning
green. Work has commenced (or next year's
crop. The season has been (avorable to the till
ers of the soil.
Autumn weather conditions have set in More
rain, lower temperature and frosty morning)
may now be expected.
lASTBRN ORKOOM.
Weather. The mean temperature (or the week
averaged 61 deg., which was 7 deg. lower than
(or the preceding week and 8 deg. lower than
(or the corresponding week o( last year. The
maximum temperature (or the week was 80 deg.,
which occurred on several days, and the lowest
was 36 deg., on Friday morning. Frost occurred
over the plateau region on several mornings.
Rain to the amount o( 0.08 to 0.14 of an inch (ell
on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Crops. Harvest is over; only a small amount
of grain yet reuialiiB to be threshed. The sea
son has been one of the most (avorable on rec
ord (er the grain crop and (or crops of all kinds.
The bulk of the grain crop is now in warehouses
and elevators.
The rain started the grass and sprouted the
early sown grain. Considerable grain is sown
every year in the dust, and the first rains give
it a good start. Pasture is improving and the
movement of stock from the summer to tbe
winter ranges has commenced.
Fruit is maturing and la being shipped. The
fruit crop is unusually large; the same Is true
of the vegetable crop. Work (or the crops of
next year has commenced.
These bulletins will, with this Issue, be dls
coutined (or this season, they will be resumed
about April 1, 18SI9. The crop season of 18U3 has
been a most successful one. The grain crop, as
a whole, is excellent. Aphis injured spring
grain in a (ew of the Willamette counties.
Hops wore cleaner and o( better quality than
lor years.
The hay crop has never been larger or better.
The fruit crop has been heavy. The vegetable
crop is always good and It was equal to the best
this year. Stock went through the early winter
In good condition; owing to sales the range la
not now so crowded.
No Item of Industry has been affected by kny
adverso conditions, hence the record ot a suc
cessful year.

Hartfobd, Oonn. 88pt. 12. 1898
Friend Tom: I suppose it is not neces
sary for me to tell you that Jap is eoid,
ss you have no doubt read of this sale
long before this reaobes you.
Jap sold I
Do you know it makes a cold chill rnn
over me to think ot it , although I ex
pected it. I wonder if the little fellow
has any friends warm enoueh in Oreuon
to feel sorry that they will never see bim
any more. Yoo uaonot know how I feel.
I feel just as though I bad sold the best
friend I bad in the world. It is not
often one has friends that never fail him;
that always will do more than yoo can
ask of bim. In all Jap's life and in all
his races be was ready and willing io do
more than I aiked. You will be sur
prised when I tell you it is no fault of
his that be lost a sinale raoe this year.
It was either an aceideot or someone was
to blame not Jap.
I sold him at Boston, tbe same day of
the race there, with all his outdl for 7,
250, aud I think I was foolish at that,
although that would be considerable
money for me to lose, should he die. If
he bed not worn bobbles I ooold have
sold bim for 825,000. I turned him over
to the parties who bought him 20 minutes
before the race, and they ant him beaten
by horses that be could simply ioir and
beat. They ni xt took bim to Hartford,
where tbey were noxious to win, but
ibey did not drivs him right kod got

growing. In places like this the cattle string
out (or over a mile trailing single file. They
soon learn to follow the bell.
There are about 100 people camped here, made
up o( packers, cattle men, sawmill men and
prospectors. Many a disgusted Klondiker is
wending his way up the river and over the trail.
Four or five o( them go in together aud buy a
horse, and get out of the country in that man
ner. There are three saddle trains here taking
passengers to the coast. The boats are also
running to Lake Bennett, aud are doing a large
passenger traffic.
There la a great deal of gold being taken out
ot the Klondike country. Nine men went up
the river yesterday, and the least that any of
them had was l.w pounds. Another miner that
went over the trail took out 400 pounds ol nug
gets. The cleanup at Dawson City is very satis
factory. It is estimated that it will be between
$6,000,000 to 15,000,000. So much is being
smuggled that no idea can be formed o( the
cleanup.
There is a sawmill being built at this point.
Lumber is some cheaDer than at Dairann rit
commanding here $150 per thousand feet.
me cattle are not in yet, but expect them
soon. I am building a scow and a raft (or use
In running the cattle down to Dawson.
Horses are worth practically nothing here,
but a person can sell a (ew head every time a
boat comes up the river. They bring (rom $75
to 1125 per head.
There is not enough big timber here to build
what rafts are needed by parties going down
the river. There are boats going down the river
all the time. From 25 to 100 pass this place
daily.
I hope to get out of this country in 30 or 40
days. I could make short work nf It. If I .nnM
go with my cattle to Dawson City at ouce.
Keinember me to all the boys. Tell them
that beans and bacou are getting so they don't
taste good. yy. M. Kodio.
