XPRINC1 STREET, COINDON. OREQON i OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST CURE OF THE INSANE. Oood Record the Pait Year at the Oregon Aiylum. Salem An unusually good record In the caring of patient ha kept down the oamber of inmate of the state in an asylum and ha probably averted congestion at that Institution . When the laat legislator met, there was every reason to believe that the con traction of a new wing would be abso lutely accessary within the ensuing two year. An appropriation tor an addi tion of three ward was made, but the appropriation waa Included In the. om nibus appropriation bill and ws held op by the referendum. Construction of new room waa therefore made impos sible. The usual rate of increase in popula tion at the asylum is 50 per year, and at that rate the institution would have been crowded to tbe limit before anoth er legislature could take action. Of late, however, a large number of pa tients have been discharged. Should the next legislature make an appropriation for a new wing, contain ing three ward, it will be at least two year from the present time before the addition would be ready for occupancy. There is now room for 68 more patients in the men's department and ten in the women's department. Unices, there fore, the present low rate of increase continues, tbe building will be full be fore tbe capacity can be enlarged. In any event it will be necessary to transform one of the men's wards into a ward for women, and probably it will be Beceeaary to use some of the men's smoking rooms for dormitories. BUSINESS IS PROMISING. Porta; Railroad Saves Farmers Five Cents a Bushel on Wheat. Salem That the operation of the portage road from Tbe Dalles to Celilo baa resulted in an increase of 6 cents a bushel to wheat growing farmers, who were able to reach the portage road, is the report made by Superintendent L. S. Cook, to the Portage Railway com mission. Not all tbe wheat that brought the increased price was shipped over the portage road, however, for Mr. Cook says that the O. R. & N. Co. has met tbe cut brought about by the oper ation of the state's railroad and farmers have profited in that way. The O. R. A N. met the cat by ab sorbing drayage at Arlington and by other means and thereby secured much of the shipping. Only 18,139 sacks of wheat went over tbe portage road dur ing November, but more could have been secured by seeking contracts and more will be secured when the shippers become familiar witn tbe rates. SALEM WOULD CAN FRUIT. Movement Started to Form Company to Handle Output. Salem A movement has been started for the organisation of a co-operative company among the fruitgrowers for tbe purpose of constructing and oner ating a cannery. The plan is to form a corporation with 400 shares of stock at 25 a share. Not more than 20 shares can be held by one person, and transfers can be made only through the board of directors. . The board will consist of nine men and will have charge of the bueineass of the concern. The purpose is to secure to growers the highest possible price for fruit. The movement was started by S. J Letnmon, an Eastern fruit packer, who expects to take the management of the co-operative cannery, New Cut-Off Nearly Don. McMinnville The new St. Joseph' Lafayette cat-off, which is nearly com pie ted, will enable the Yamhill divi sion of the Southern Pacific to have regular trains over the new raad within a short time. The new stretch of track is nearly two and a half miles lone. and will do away with keeping up the nine miles ot road from- VVhiteeon to Lafayette and the big bridge near the latter place. If the present schedule remains in force, three trains a day will run into Portland at 6 and 8 a. m. and 3 p.m. Snow Falls Early. Burns The first snow storm of the year has visited this county, and snow is now 12 inches deep in the valley and three feet on the mountains. This is more snow than fell all last winter, and old settlers say it is more than has fall en this time of year since tbe bard winter of 1887-88, when 75 per cent of the stock periBhed." The early sntw indicates a long, cold winter, but the stockmen have plenty of fodder for five months' feeding. , Complaints on Illegal Fishing. Tillamook Deputy Fish Warden H. A. Webster has filed two complaints in Justice Haberlack's court on account of tbe alleged violation ot the fishing law in Tillamook bay. One is agaisnt the Elmore Packing company, and the oth er against W. W. Ridehalgh, manager of the cannery at Garibaldi. DIGGING LONG TUNNEL.' Baker City Irrigation Co. to Conduct Water Through Hill. Baker City The 600-foot tunnel of the Baker City Irrigation company through, the bill on which is situated tbe city reservoir is onder way by a gang of 40 men, with all the necessary machinery. Work was commenced at both ends simultaneously, and unless tbe plans of the engineers go wrong, the two crews will meet in the middle of tbe bill. When completed this will be the greatest irrigation tunnel in Eastern Oregon. The entire cost of the tunnel will be about f 40,000, while the system this company is putting in will cost over $100,000. Tb beadgates are on Pow der river, about seven mile above Baker City. The ditch follows tbe foot hills down to the big reservoir hill, where a tunnel was found necessary. After leaving the tunnel tb water will b taken around the east side of Baker City and put on about 6,000 acre vf land adjoining tb city limits on tbe northeast . This land will be devoted to fruit raising and small fsrming. E. L. Smith, of Hood River, is at the bead of the company building this ditch, and it is tb first and only irrigation project of any magnitude in Baker county. Linn Farms May Yield Oil. Albany Are the foothill of Linn county charged with crude oil that will make tbe owners of tbe land fabulously rich? This question is agitating tbe minds of a large number of people since tbe investigation of the land baa been taken up by A. A. Horter, Wil liam 8. Harris and W. P. Keady. For some time these men have been pros pecting in the coal fields around La cousb, and now have arranged to lease several hundred acres in that neighbor hood for the avowed purpose of boring for oil. Linn County Taxes Fixed Albany At the regular December term of the county court for Linn county the tax levy for Linn county for all purposes waa fixed. The total levy to be paid by resident of the county who are not subject to a city tax will be 21 mill. This includes state, county and the several special taxe. divided as follows: State, 6.5 mills; school, 5.4 mills; county, 3 mills; roads and bridges, 4 mills; indigent soldiers, 0.1 mills; special road, 2 mills; total, 21 mills. Bright Outlook for Show. Albany December 19 to 23 are tbe date set for tbe annual exhibition of blooded fowls under the auspices of the Linn County Poultry association. This bazaar promises to be one of the beet yet held, and many prises will be offer ed for the best exhibits, for many of which there is material in Linn county. PORTLAND MARKETS.
