Don't forget that commencing
September 1st aud continuing daily
for two mouths, tickets will be on
sale at almost every railroad station
in the East to all points iu Oregon
and the Northwest at what has come
to be popularly known as "Colonist
rates." These rates are the cheap
est general long distance rates ever
established, and enable one to reach
Oregon from any part of the United
States at but a trifle more than one
cent a mile. They are the greatest
inceutive to colonization and pro
gressive home building of any
known agency, and if the restless,
dissatisfied resident of the East is
made to know before hand the ad
vantages he can enjoy here, the
problem is solved, and the star ol
empire will continue to move stead
ily westward.
Now is the time to spread the
gospel of Oregon, so that it may be
heard and heeded by the time the
rates go into effect. Send one name
or two, or a do.en, and you will be
exerting a worthy influence toward
the upbuilding of our state. Send
them to your nearest Southern Pa
cific agent or to XX' ru. McMurray,

Judge I .and is in the United States
district court has fined the Standard
Oil company $29,240,000 for viola
tion of the law against accepting
rebates from railroads, which was a
mighty good thing and will give
Mr. Rockefeller some thing besides
golf to think about. Now if some-
thing can be done to prevent the
Standard Oil company from putting I
up the price of oil, so the people
will have to pay the fiue, everything
will be fine. But can it be done?
Hops in the Dalles district pro
mise an early crop. X'ermin have
appeared in nearly all olthe yards,
but are liug held in check by the
hot weather and vigorous spraying.
Prospects of low prices early in the
season caused many of the growers
to cultivate lightly in order to save
expense, and as a consequence the
crop will be light. No trouble is
anticipated iu securing pickers for
the yards in the Dallas district.
Gambling has been shut down iu
Astoria, aud in every one of the

t will be just as well to watch the
fraternity. They are slippery.

The next 30 days may briug

the yield will run somewhere be

Oregon. The following are the
reports received up to last night:
SALEM RSTIMATKS 140,000 BALKS.
Salem, Or., Aug. 4. Estimates
from the most couservative dealers
of this district, who have made a
tour of the hopgrowing territory
terially changed. The long, dry.
cool weather has been ideal for hop
growing, aud the quality at this
time is above the average. The
hops are in splendid condition aud
almost free Irom lice. Unless some
sudden change in weather condi
tions intervenes, the Lane county
crop will be up to the average iu
quantity and quite alnjve iu the
quality of the hops.
Ol'TLOOK HKTTKK THAN LAST YEAR.
Woodburn, Or., Aug. 4. There
will be a larger hop yield iu this
section this season than iu any pre
vious year and the quality will be
mostly choice. The lice have prac
tically disappeared and all but a
few old yards that have leeu given
no attention are making a fine
showing. Some of the old yards
are looking better than for the past
five years. The new yards show
up well and will make an excellent
record this year. A party who has
made a thorough inspection of the
yards in this vicinity was in the
city yesterday and reports the out
look very bright, corroborating the
opiniou of others as to large yield
and good quality. Oreeonian.

Where the Oregon Press Association W'.l Jlold Their Outing This Year.
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 6. Ac
cording to private advices received
from New X'ork from Castalia, Ohio,
the wealth of Johu D. Rockefeller
has made possible the cure of men
ingitis. Dr. Simon Flexner of New
York has discovered a scrum which
will cure the dread diseases. Ex
periments made at Castalia have
demonstrated the efficiency of the
serum.
"It is a most remarkable discov
ery" said Dr. S. Corsuch oLCastalia,
today. "Not one ol the patients
could have possibly got well. A
girl was oue of the first attacked, and
was almost dead when the serum
was applied. No one thought she
would recover Yet now she is get
ting well. ,
"We doctors have said nothing
alx)ut the matter, because of the
fact that the cases were of an exper
imental nature. However, we have
kept, through Dr. Flexner, in con
stant touch with the progress of pa
tients, and feel that experiments
have demonstrated absolutely that
the serum will cure meningitis.
One of the worst diseases in th$ hu
man calendar has been conquered,
without doubt."
Physicians say the serum is one
of the discoveries of the age, as it
means the saving ot thousands of
lives. The percentage of deaths in
meningitis is over 99. The disease
is uniformly fatal.

favor of preserving the shade trees

tal station ot Union will also parti

space for the display of grains and
grasses. The exhibit of the Agri
cultural college will lie collected
with a special view of attracting
young people to the school. A

Clatsop Beach.
The Clatsop Ileach resorts are ex

ly due to the excellent train service
that is being given by the Astoria
and Columbia River railroad. Two
through tiains are run daily from
Portland to Clatsop Beach; morn
ing train leaving at 8 o'clock, eve
ning train at 6 o'clock. In addi

The county exhibits at the Or
egon state fair in Salem are always
interesting, and a big advertising
feature for the sections represented.
This year six counties will exhibit,
as follows: Marion, Benton, Lane,
Linn, Clatsop and Multnomah.
The last two have never been repre
sented before. The county courts
of Multnomah and Clatsop counties
have each appropriated $1000 to
provide for an adequate display,
Marion county will exhibit but
she will ndt compete for the prize.
The outside counties say that Mar
ion has an advantage in leing
nearer the fair. Accordingly she
will withdraw and the other con
testants will all have an equal
chance.
Individual farm displays will al
so be a prominent feature in the
pavilion. Two entries have alrea
dy been made: Mrs. F. A. XX'olf
of Falls City and W. H. Hulburt of
Albany. The first prize in this di
vision is f 100 in cash and a f 75

house, while the second premium
will be $50 in cash and a 65 Iowa

Mitchell, Lewis & Staver company.

PRKDICTS 20 PKK CENT lU-CKKASE.
Hillsboro, Or.. Aug. 4. The
hop crop of Washington county this
season bids fair to be Joper cent less
than last year's product. This
shortage is due to lack of cultiva
tion, owing to bad weather at a
time when yards should have had
care; to lice and Ixk of spraying;
to the fact that there is some blight
in many yards that last season were
free from fault.
Last year's Washington county
product went about 8000 bales, and
it is estimated that this season the
output will be slightly over 6000
bales. In many districts the lice
have been prolific and. as spraying
is expensive, many yards were not
given any spraying whatever. So
far as can le IcaraeJ the quality ol
hops is up to the standard, this
county generally ItaJiug the state
in this regard.
