TEST LOYALTY OF TROOPS.
Reactionaries Urge Ue of Troops
to Stamp Out Revolution.
St. Petersburg, July 2. Under the
influence of the recent developments
touch inn the loyalty of the army and
the conviction that the present policy
of inaction has reached its ultimate
limit, the reactionary faction in the
ministry has revived the plan for the
dissolution of parliament and stamping
nut revolutionary activity in the conn
try by armed Jorce, while such force is
still available. '
The Associated Tress was informed
today that this solution had been re
pea ted ly presented to Emperor Nicholas
since the development of disaffection
among the best regiments ot the guard
and the disorders at Kiasnoye Selo, but
thus far without result. Each day
favors the acceptance of the alternative
of the dismissal of the Goremykin cab
inet and the naming of a responsible
ministiy.
The ministerial repreeeionists liase
their hopes on the supposition that the
great majority of the troops will hail
actual conflict, as they did at Moscow
in December last forget their gnev
ances and enter whole heartedly into
the combat. One of the advocates of
repression said to the Associated Press
today that it would be necessary to
strike hard immediately, or otherwise
within a fortnight the world would
probably see the proclamations of re
publics at Kharkov, Saratov, Roetov
and elsewhere.
The whole south of Russia, the
speaker said, is belching forth anarchy
and revolution, and parliament, as "a
hindrance to the work of pacification."
must be dissolved at once. "The
troops, however, must not they can
not be employed against the peasant
ry." added the functionary, admitting
that this was the limit to the loyalty of
the soldiery.
It is doubtful i Premier Goremykin
is himself a strong advocate of the des
perate alternative of repression. The
premier told the representative of a
foreign power today that he was only
anxious to be rid of the responsibilities
of the premiership, and that he would
be delighted if the emperor should call
for his resignation.
Printed copies of the government
agrarian project were transmitted to
the lower house of parliament today,
and Minister of Agriculture St. Chin
sky will soon request President Mou
romtseff to fix a day for explanation
and consideration of the document.
The project, part of which was elabo
rated in the department of Agriculture
and part in the ministry of the Inter
ior, is a voluminous document, and
the deputies probably will demand
several days for its study. A third
section, which is being prepared in
the ministry of Finance, remains to be
presented.
JOLT FOR CASTRO.
Ultimatum From United States Will
Be Sent Him Soon.
Washington, July 2. Soon after
General Cipriano Castro resumes the
presidency of Venezuela, July 5, he
will find himself confronted by re
quests from the United States for set
tlement of American claims againBt his
government. For more than a year
Castro has not been bothered by the
United States. Meantime Judge W.
J. Calhoun visited Venezuela and in
vestigated the American claims, and
the State department has been busily
engaged in reviewing the cases and
putting them in condition to be pressed.
What seemed to be indifference on
the part of the United States has been
only caution, and the State department
will take up its work where it is allow
ed to reet after the sending of a note to
Castro by Secretary of State Hay, which
is practically an ultimatum.
A request will be made for the ad
justment of American claims regardless
of what action the Venezuelan courts
may have taken or shall take in the fu
ture. Representations covering prac
tically all the American claims against
Venezuela may doubtless be presented.
Gasoline Runs Short.
Cleveland, July 2. The Standard Oil
company today sent out circulars noti
fying all its customers that high grade
gasoline, testing from 74 to 73 degrees,
had been withdrawn from the market.
This action is taken as a result of the
demand for the product and the ina
bility of the Standard Oil company to
supply the same. The high grade gaso
line is used exclusively in operating
automobiles, naphtha launches, etc.
It is stated that gas engines generally
can be altered to permit the us of the
common or stove gasoline as fuel.
New York School Teachers Coming.
Portland, July 2. A special train
of school teachers from New York city
will reach Portland on the morning of
July 16, leaving the same evening after
a trip to Cascade locks by rail and re
turn to the city by steamer. The party
is in charge of V. V. Beard, genetal
Eastern passenger agent for the New
York Central lines. The special is a
solid Puilman that is being run by the
New York Central. There will ba 125
teachers on board.
Company increases Capital.
New York, July 2. At a special
meeting of the Hanover Fire Insurance
company today it was voted to increase
the capital stock of the company from
$500,000 to $1,000,000. This action
was takn as the result of the looses
sustained by the company in the San
Francisco fire. ?i:The new stock will
be issued at $150 a share, thus adding
$750,000 to the company's resources.
OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST
MEASURE IS DEFECTIVE.
Anti-Past Law Doet Not Contain an
Enacting Clause.
Salem What disposition to make of
the anti-pass law Is a problem that Is
troubling the state otlicials. It is not
because they do not favor the enact
ment of such a law. They are not call
ed upon to pass upon that phase of the
question.
It was discovered lefore the law was
submitted to the people that it was fa
tally defective, in that it did not con
tain an enacting clause. The law
books were scanned for some authority
to correct the defect, but it was discov
ered that it could not be corrected or
amended. The law ou that point was
explicit.
The constitution says all laws must
have an enacting clause, and the Su
preme court has decideu that a law
without an enacting clause is void.
The secretary of state must submit
all measures to a vote of the people
that are filed in his oftice with the
proper number of names signed to the
petition. He has no authority to pass
upon the constitutionality of the pro
poeed law, or question its expediency.
ALL POLICIES ARE CANCELED.
Attorney General Advitet Trader' In
surance Policyholders.
Salem Attorney General Crawford
advises all persons having insurance in
the Traders' Insurance company, which
recently became insolvent, to reinsure
if they wish insurance, and to file
claims with the receiver for the un
earned portions of their premiums.
Suit for the appointment of a receiver
was brought a few days ago, and the
secretary of state ami state treasurer
were made parties, because the state
has $50,000 bonds to secure policies in
this state.
When Attorney tieneral Crawford re
turned from Eastern Oregon the papers
in the case were turned over to him.
He says that in his opinion all policies
were cancelled when the company went
into bankruptcy and policy holders can
have no claim except for unearned
premium).
Vinegar Factory is Attured.
La Grande That La Grande will
have a vinegar factory, which will be
in operation in time to handle the crop
of fall apples, is now an assured fact.
Nearly all the stock has been subscrib
ed. Cash stock subscriptions, amount
ing to nearly $30,000 bave been made.
The building will be 45x150 with ce
ment cellars, and the factory will have
a capacityy for handling 100,000 bush
els during the year, with an output of
approximately 300.000 gallons of vine
gar, apple wine and cider.
Colony of Poles for Lane.
Euirene John J. von Gortomrki, of
Toledo, O., and W. Szcloszhicurez, of
Portland. reoreeentiDir a colonizing
company, which intends to locate a col-
ony of Poles in I.ane county, are in
Eueene making final arrangements to
bring the colonists. An agreement has
been made with the Booth-Kelley l.um
htr rnmnanv wherebv a tarse number
of the colonists are to be employed in
the company s sawmills ana logging
camps. Others will purchase small
tracts of land and engage in farming.
Grand Ronde Farmers Jubilant.
La Grande Wheat growers in the
Grand Ronde valley are jubliant over
the outlook for their crops this season.
Fall wheats are giving every indication
of being equally as good as last year
and the spring wheat, it is closely esti
mated, will yield nearly two bushels
to one of last year. Judging from the
little difficulty the farmers are having
in securing employes there will be no
trouble in getting sufficient help to
harvest the crops. Unless there is an
exodus to other sections there should
be no shortage of help.
Carlton Farmers Pleased.
Carlton The fine weather of the past
few days has started the farmers to
haying. The prospects are good for an
abandant yield. Clover and vetch are
especially good, and it is expected that
the yield will be the heaviest in years.
In a few localities the wheat was darn-
aged by the aphis, but generally the
crop is good, tail oats were damaged
slightly by the cold late rains, but
spring oats are fine, and the yield will
be above the average.
Hay Harvest Begins in Marion,
Salem Farmers are rejoicing over
the cessation of rain, and many have
commenced haying, though cutting will
not be in full swing until next week.
With favorable weather, an immense
crop of hay will be saved. Grain is
reported in excellent condition. Many
hopgrowers are behind with training
vines, owing to bad weather, but the
growth has been good. Gardens have
been benefitted by the late rains.
Good Meeting Assured.
Ashland The annual assembly of
the Southern Oregon Chautauqua asso
ciation opens at Ashland Wednesday,
Julv 11. and continues lor 10 days.
The program is particularly strong and
the indications are for a bigger and
better assembly than ever before.
Short on Fruit.
Milton Business at the fruit pack
ing houses here is practically at a
standstill, and there will be scarcely
anything doing until the prune crop
matures.
DEET CROP GOOD.
Yield in Grand Ronde Vail jy Reac'n
40.000 Tons.
La Grande Machinists are busy at
the sugar factory overhauling the ma
chinery and getting the plant in order
for the summer run for the working in
to bron sugar of the residue syrup of
lust year. The mill expects to stait on
this run rally in July, and will con
tinue for six or eight weeks, w hich will
bring it almost up to the time when
the regular fall run will commence,
which to meet demands must begin not
later than the middle of September.
The pressing need for this unusually
early beginning is brought about by the
exceptional heavy crop of beets that is
expected to he harvested this year and
which must le disposed of before the
hard frosts come ; therefore an early
start is necessary to get all the twets
through.
Manager llramwell is enthusiastic on
the present prospects for a beet crop.
He says:
"We have 4,400 acres of beets this
year and at least 4,000 acres of this I"
a perfect stand. The only difficulty
that confronts na Is the scarcity of
help. We employ all the white help
we can and then fill out with the best
we can get. In addition to our home
supply of help we have about 200 Jap
anese." The yield of beets for this year is es
timated at between 35,000 and 40,000
tons, with a sugar output of not less
than 10,000,000 pounds.
high Wages Promised.
The Dalles The past few days of
warm weather have cauied hay making
to he pushed with unustiil vigor, and
farmhands find plenty of labor at $2
per day. There appears to be plentr of
labor ti handle the hay crop, but farm
ers anticipate there will be a shortage
of la (Hirers when wheat harvest begins,
which will be toward the latter part of
July, as harvest will be somewhat later
this season than of ordinary seasons.
It is likely header drivers will com
mand $3 a day, header wagon drivers,
$2 to $2.50, and separator tenders from
$3.50 to $4. Ordinary laborers, fork
tenders and stackers, will command $2
a day.
Big Crops in Harne '.
Burns The late high water and
heavy rain storms in June will insure a
large crop of wild hay. Most stockmen
are claiming that this season's hay crop
will be larger and better than for the
last five years. Last winter was a se
vere one on stock and there was but
little fodder left over. The stockmen
have most every winter from three to
four months feeding, so it w ill take an
immense crop to last them through the
coming winter. Grain is looking well
and promises to be a heavy yield. The
acreage has been greatly increased.
Californian Buys Rogue River Farm.
Ashland A big land sale wai nego
tiated in Ashland this week when S. G.
Simon, from Northern Califjrnia. bar
gained for, the purchase of a 2H0-acre
farm seven miles northwest of this city,

was $22,000. Mr. Simons will engage
in stock growing and fruit raising in
this valley.
Wetton Wheat Flourishes.
Weston The wheat in this section is

yield.
