The Dougla County Cititea it the

ball-war point between Grant I'ate

In due lime.
The increase id cultivation and iriina-
lion in the Columbia liver valley it
uggesled to be productive of an iu
created flow of lilt in that itreaui,
which In the rapid formation of banal
the month of tbe river may become a
aerious problem later on.
It It not with tttitlic tion that at
note that Sunday borte racing ia becom
ing too much of a regular occurrence in
tliit city. Horn racing in itsell It not
reprehensible, but the gambling that
nearly invariably accompanies it it
deinoraliilng an J greatly more to that it
happens on Hunday.
For all Ingenious names, and there are
many, aprended lo quarts locations, it
seems to us that those who named tbe
"Roaring Gimlet" should be awarded!
premium. Tbe name it a good one,
though, and seems to carry with it a
suggestion of keen activity and brink
liveliness that would make a hornet
blush with shame at his inability to
produce. The mine at pretnt it living
np to tbe standard of tentatioo set by
its name.
Discharged soldiers, to the number of
several hundred, wrecked a saloon In
the vicinity of the Presidio on Friday
evening. They claimed that one of
their number had been drugged in tb
place. They demolitbtd everything
possible, tried to kill the one man who
belonged to the place and set tbe build
ing on fire by orerlurning lamps. Police
and soldiers of the pott ware alike
powerless lo quell the riot nntil the
fire bote was turned en. This cooling
and invigorating application did much
toward restoring order.
The attempt to protect the flocks of
tlioi who are engaged In theepraiting
from tbe depredation of the fraudlul
and voraciout coyote by legislation hat,
it would seem, reached farther than was
intended, and the scalp bounty law baa
encouraged tbe growth of jackrabbils
to the injury of the wheat grower's
interetts In Eaatern Oregon counties.
It baa besides, foltted upon llie county
cleikiofthe several coyote counties a
most malodorous class of records in the
decaying coyote acalpt, though I hi un
pleats utnpss could be avoided by more
Irecjuent meeting ol the county court,
which is directed by law to burn the
scalps after verifying the clerk's state
ment ol the number. It may be as
turned that farmers will object lo tbe
protection of sheep husbandry at the
sipenee of Iheir on fields and pocket,
and there ia surely trouble ahead lor the
coyote koontv in Oregon. Oregonian.
The oil dcitcnienl lias brought forth
a new phenomenon, an oil prophet with
his divining rod, with which be locales
oil. Such instrumtiits lur the purpose
of locating gold are no ttrangeia, but tbe
oil rod ia a new one. With tbit magical
instrument the operator proletaes ability
not only to locate oil strata but also lo
ascertain the depth. He can ait in his
teat in the cars and in two minute tell
whether or not there it oil beneath him
ami the number of leet it liet"lo
surface. He can do this while the train
is iu motion though not so accurately.
All this is according to hit stati'inent.
The prophet located oil all along the line
from Redding almost lo Ashland. Tl.en
tie rod took a vacatioo until the Colum
bia river was reached It seems tht
thing wouldn't operate in Oregon. The
lethargy el the instrument will doubt
lens dash the spirits of the people of Hit
Rogue, I'uipqu and Willamette river
valleys, who have believed It not un
likely that oil might be found in those
localities. The oil prophet ia a new
arrival but he belongs to a species whom
we know. M.ire than one man has

A movement Is in progress for earlier

Pine Needle Exhibits.
The pine needle eihihit, sent lo
Buffalo by the Pacific I'ine Needle Co.
of this city, receives the inlereat ihere
bich it merit. The Htiffalo C-urii r
says: Sometime r.ext week, the first
carload of supplemental exhibits will
arrive. One of the most interesting con
signments in Ibis car will be a large
exhibit of pine needle wool al 0 of
'tobacco' and cigars made o'jt of the
same material.
'As the name implies, pine needle
wool it a product of the needles of the
Oregon pines. It is manufactured no
where else in the United States, although
it is made In some parts of Europe. The
needles are boiled in large vats, then
worked through machinery by a process
which takes out the fibrous growth from
the inside of the needles. This is dried
and is the pine needle wool. 'It is a
new industry, but a very proraiiingoue',
said Commiaaiiner Dotcb. 'The product
is used now principally for iluff.ng
mattresses, but we expect shortly to
manufacture a coarae kind of cloth out
of it. For mattresses there is nothing
to beat It. It never packs down or gets

young wople. With commendable
ambition, the entire program, ex
clusive of orchestra music, invocation
and presentation of diplomas, was given
by members of the claw, and the able
manner in which the participant ac

reci'a'.iona and musical niuubera made
the program one of plessurab'e ) i ilily
not surpassed at previous occasions ol
like character.
Once more the opera house hall failed
in spacious quality and proved far to
email lo accommodate the throng who
gathered lo witness the exercises. The
more desirable seats were all secured
several davs previous le the commence

fortunate if they were not obliged to

The stage was decorated wiih fbwers

elegance and tasteful arrangement of
these floral decorations gave a pleasant
added charm to the exerciees. -'.
