THE HOPGROWERS COMBINE
A movement was launched Satur
day al Salem for the formation of the
hopgrowers of Oregon into a cooper
ative organization similar to that so
common now and so successful among
the fruitgrowers of the Northwest.
The proposed organization will have
among its many objects the control
of each year's hop crop and its sale
in the highest market, the saving of
a big sum each year by the purchase
at wholesale of supplies for the orga
nization's members, and the matter
of chief importance according to those
present at the meeting the elimina
tion of (lie hop speculator. Salem is
oidy one town of many where doz
ens of fori lines have been amassed
by men who speculate hi hops. This,
the hopgrowers claim, is wrong, and
if there is any profit in the produc
tion of hops it belongs by right to the
man who produces them, That seem
ed to be the kepnole of the Salem
meeting to eliminate the non-producer.
The formation of this organization
among the hopgrowers, whether suc
cessful or not and by all means it
should be is another evidence of the
world-wide thought so prevalent in
men's minds today which has as its
moving spirit the conviction) that the
fruits of labor belong to the man who
produces them, and that there is no
moral foundation for the seizure of
the greater part of the profit accru
ing from the world's labor by the
non-producer.
Due reads daily of the spread of this
idea among the workers and thinkers
of the world, and the time is short
until it will be an accepted tenet of
ethics. May the hopgrowers of Ore
gon succeed in their worthy orgauiza-

CITY JAIL BURNS
J. J. Harkins, Umbrella Mender
Narrowly Escaped Death
Last Night.
BELEIVED THAT HE SET
FIRE TO PAPERS IN CELL
Is Confined in St. Mary's Hos
pital with Severly Burned
Back and Arms.
Apparently emulating the attempt
of Otto Lcsch, to burn his way out
of ti.e city jail sometime ago, J. A
darkness, an umlirella mender, nai -
rowjy escaped death or serious injury
last night, when, it is believed hy
i he police, set lire to the city jail.
It this be the case it is the second sim
ilar attempt within a sort time at the
destruction of the city jail. But for
the timely assistance of Joseph Rals
ton Darkness would have probably
perished in the flames instead of ly
ing in St. .Mary s I lospital, with se
vere burns on his back, hands and
arms. 1 1 is injuries arc not f prions
1 larkness xx as arrested by Officer
A 1 Marshall al 7:30 o'clock on a
charge of drunkenness and disorderly
conduct. It is believed that the man
deliberately set fire to some papers
in the cell he occupied as there was
no fire in the jail. The flames had
gained rapid headway xvheu Ralston
heard the inmate screaming. 1 his was
about 9 o'clock. Me rushed form his
place of business and with the use
of a small axe hammered the staple
of a heavy lock off. Dick Churchill
in the mean time appeared with a hand
extinguisher ami had the flames ianiy
under control when the fire depart
ment arrived. The damage to the
jail is comparatively slight. Harkins
occupied a cell on the upper story.
The fire started among some papers
in the southwest corner and raged up
the wall to the ceiling.
All indications lead to the belief
that Harkins either intentionally or
accidentally dropped a lighted match
among the papers. 1 owever, he
claims he did not have a match in
his possession. Chief of Police Aus
tin staled this morning that the jail
had been t horotighly cleaned yester
day and that the papers were piled in
a rack on the wall. Investigation re
vealed the fact that the papers were
piled in the corner. Harkins xvas the
only prisoner in the jail at the time.
Harkins, xvheu (the jail was broken
into, was unconscious. He was car
ried out ami hurried to the hospital
xv here he was revived. This morning
he xvas reported as restin' easilv al
though his back is severely blistered.
His hands and arms are badly burned.
