Everything seems to indicate renewed prosperity forOregon this year. Settlers are coming this way, the grain crop is in tine condition, the outlook for fruit of nearly every variety Is good, and the markets are calling for the products of this section, which are the linest in the land. Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Helm, who had been residing on the John Day river near Mayville for a, year or so, have opened up a' restaurant In Clias. Fix's building adjoining his stable, and will also run a bakery in connection with the restnrant. Mr. Fix is a firm believer in diversity of business. Condon has two saloons again.

Al HeiiBhaw arrived home, from Port land Saturday. He says there is no truth in the Borland Sun's article say ing that Jim Lot an upbraided him for voting for conviction against his-senti-ments. Sometimes newspaper reporters stretch on their imaginations terribly in order to make a readable article. G. G. Parman is hauling lninlier to build a large addition to his already flue house on his farm near town. Mr. Par man is very industrious and is always too busy to discuss hard times and the silver question -ami for that reason he never sees hard tithes. We know of lots of others who ought to "follow Buit." Only three bids were presented for the building of the new church at Condon. J. H, Clark's bid was $187.50, 8. S.

Lit tle Phil, however, has the credit of mak ing the sales, and obtained in both cases more for the wool than the limit left hi in by the owners." If the strawberry growers of the in land empire should realize $2 per crate for their berries which sum would be from $150,000 to $200,000 they would not get enough money to pay their pickers and pay for the bicycles brought into the Northwest this year. The wheel has become a necessity as well as a lux ury in these days of rapid progress. Exchange. Two gentlemen made a bnsiness deal last week at Walla Walla in which 30,000 bushels of wheat were contracted for this fall at 50 cents per bushel. The one who agrees to pay that price for wheat when the crop is harvested say ho has no fears of losing anything on the deal, and may make considerable money above that figure when fall prices for grain are es tablished. Whiloin Portland Mr. Al Henshaw bought a large stock of fine furniture of all kinds and everything needed for housekeeping, such as dishes, glassware, graniteware, matting, also a large box of bolts, all eises, Tor machinery. Call and examine his stock and get bis prices. Mr. Henshaw Is one of the sqitarest bus iness men in this country and dues not owe a dollar to anybody, C. J. Morey, who has just closed a term of school on Hchottler Flat, was in town this week interviewing our direc tors as to his chances for teaching our school, commencing in Heptember. He informs us that he has taught school for many years in Multnomah county and was on the txiard of examiners in that county for a longtime, ftupt. Kennedy speaks favorably of him as a teacher. Men who are offered $2.00 or $3 per day in Northern Idaho to work in the mines are not allowed to do so, and the mine owners are threatened with des truction of their property, if they employ men at these prices, by the leaders of the Miners' union. Scuh despotism as this, injurious alike to property and labor, makes these unions odious and in tolerable in a nominally free country. An exchange says that it is the suc cessful man who has a good word for evcrvbodv. The more of a failure a man is the more he runs other people down and the deeper be gets his nose into other people's business. If that is the cao and there is no doubt that it is true there are several very complete failures in this section, who never were known to say a favorable word about any body. , The Commercial Tribune says that the greatest siu a mau has to answer for now-a-ilays is poverty. He may have grievous faults, but if ho has money, his faults are overlooked, but if he is poor, God help him, for he will find few others to do so. To say a man has made i suo cess of his life, means tout he has 6aie money, it matters not how. To say his life has been a failure, means he is poor. It is no wouder that the poor are dis contented. --' In Wasco county they are killing squirrels w ith lice. They have tried to give them smallpox and other conta gious diseases, but it failed. Finally they imported a few lousy squirrels, and now where there used to be twenty there is but one. The lice twin to eat them up alive. Those caught in trajis are lousy and as lean as a match, and are more dead than alive. It seems to be a sure cure, and the time will come when they will sell squirrel lice ovor the country in drug stores as they now sell bird seed. The dispatches show Michigan and Wisconsin have had six frosts during the mouth of May, Apples peaches and plums have been badly damaged. Throughout northern Ohio, Indiana and Illinois four-fifths of the crop has been ruined. In New York snd Pennsylvania the mercury has lieen below the freezing point four times in ten days, and fruit has "Buffered severely. In Iowa, Mis souri and Nebraska, the entire corn crop will tie to plant over. The Pacific North-, west seems to be particularly favored this season. Ad is patch from the Dalles, dated June 2d, says: The case of the state vs. Dan iel Moloney and Charles Snelling, charg ed with larceny of horses went to the jury last night. The jury was out a little over two hours, and returned a verdict of acquittal as to both defendants. On the first ballot the vote was eight for ac quittal and four for conviction. The ver dict was expected, as the state did not make out as Btrong case in this as in the other trial. The grand jury made its final report last evening, and was dis charged. The most important item was the statement that the county had been defrauded out of over $1300 by the Issu ance of fraudulent warrants, and a reo commendation that suit be instituted against some of the bondsmen of some of the preceding county clerks in whose terms the warrants were issued. The grand jury also advised that an export m employed to'check up the books of the sheriff's office since IStiO. Stockmen's NoUce. The Mavvilly Pt.kmi -i H I'lvicctive j.

Boss Beardsley has tried bis new boat and think it will be a great success, C. W. Wester and H.C.Dodson brought in a band of horses last week to ship to the Willamette valley. Jno. A. Brown, formerly of this place, but lately of North Yakima, ha been in town for several days. The grand old Columbia evidently, does not intend to prevent traffic this season, as it is already receding. The Orientals met one evening last week to unlold the mysteries of the Orient to some seekers of the true faith. Cur ley Ebi, who has been quite ill for some time, was taken to Portland Mon day night for treatment in the hospital. Hquire Ebi, his brother, accompanied biin. Dan Cameron, who was seriously in jured in a runaway last week, was brought in on Sunday and on Monday night was taken to the hospital for treat ment. Dr. A. C. Hawson and R. T. Cox went to Pine creek fishing last Sunday. We presume a it was Hunday the boy could not find any conveyances to bring in the large number of speckled beauties which they succeeded in bagging, so had to disappoint their friends. There was a crindnal case in the re- corder'scourtTuesday which was sharply contested. The city of Arlington was j represented by 8. A. D. Gurley, city at torney, and the defendant, J. Miller, was defended by Jno. A. Brown. Defen dant was found guilty and fined by the court. We nnderstand there is to be a grand celebration and soldiers' reunion at Lex ington on July 3d and 4th, under the ausfiices of the G. A. R. posts of this place and Iieppner.
