' announcing the action of the board;
I hate the honor to -advise that the
application signed .by yourself and 41
other numbers of the .Naval Battalion,
dated May I 1902, was submitted for ac
. turn to- the military .board at a special
meeting held today, and that the same
has1 been disallowed. ,
"The continued Interest. OS the. members
of the "Naval Battalion W. the National
Guard la appreciated, but the board has
decided to; adhere to Iwpplicy. not to

the Oregon National Guard and of Bat
tery A, I stationed In Portland, will be
glad to receive members of the Naval
- Battalion Into their respective compa
nies, until' the maximum number Is re
ceived. lon does' not reflect unfavorably on the
ofllcers and men comprUlng 1t- There
' being no prospect of securing the perma-
. nent aetau of a training snip ior me tisb
of the batUllon In Portland, it was al
moat impossible to maintain an efficient
Naval . Battalion. I;
Other states have disbanded their Na
val Reserves since the organisation of
this branch of the service shortly before
the outbreak the Spanish-American
war. lt was hoped that the bill Intro
duced at this session of Congress for the
reorganisation of the Naval Reserve
would pass, and it was, the intention 'to
maintain the Navel Battanon in ' this
r state, so that It might be transferred to a
new organisation, the. member' thu re
ceiving tho full , benefit of continuous
service. Opposition of such a character,
however, has ' developed 1 that there - ap
pears to be no. prospect of the passage
of the bill. It was therefore deemed In
advisable to continue the organisation.
The batUllon win be disbanded In the
Armory this evening, and the members
will there : receive their dischargee or
transfers to -companies of the Third
Regiment.
- Almost, 100,emlsted men and the follow-
lng officers comprise the' company:
; First Division Lieutenant, senior grade,
Z. W. Stevens; Lieutenant, junior gtadii,
Ed Sloan; Ensign H. M. - Montgomery.
Ensign W.. H. Sherman. .
Third - Division Lieutenant, senior
grade, W. T. Bird; Lieutenant, junior
. rt UIIUKUUj ,HBlSu W . AX,
Dennyi Ensign Edward Smith; Lieuten
ant,' Junior grade, and assistant surgeon,
G. n- Rtorv.
., It was organised about the time of the
' outbreak of the Spanish-American war.
There were two divisions here and one at
Astoria, The Astoria division was mus-
' tered out about a year and a half ago.
' The property of the Naval Battalions
wlrt be turned over to the 'proper authori
ties this evening. The silk ensign Is the
private property of the battalion, and
M considerable speculation is indulged in as
to Its disposition, some favoring ifs

others favoring" its exhibit In

DECIDED IN
' COUNTY'S FAVOR
Unless further legal proceedings are In
stituted, Multnomah County will proceed
with the widening f the Macadam road.
In accordance with the contract entered
into recently with Smyth & Howard.
ThU follows from the decision of Circuit
Judge Sean, rendered this morning in the
matter of the petition ot,th California
Powder; Works for a writ of review of
the proceedings.
It was claimed by the petitioner's attor-
nyw-WV IBreewter,- that the survey t ef 1
the proposed work was lnaocurate. and
that the descriptions of the points of be
ginning and ending were Indefinite; that
certain property of the' California. Pow
der Works was -about to be Interfered
with, in passing -upon the" merits of the
proceedings, Judge Sear said;
"I fall to find distinctly the Invalidity
In the proceedings which should author
ise the Issuance ot the writ."
Attorney C. H. jCarey, for the county,
submitted nine different reasons why the
writ should be annulled. One of them
was that the clerk had not been served
with the writ In paealng on this ques
tion Judge Sears observed! "The County
Clerk Is the custodian of the records of
the Countjr,CtU5t. As such, jervlce and J
tW frecmt txu matt OH mm. The
Clerk alone la the custodUn of the rec
ords." . .
WILL SUE THE COUNTY-
County "judge W. M. Cake has writ
ten a letter to Bruno Bonacci, at New
Vork, refusing, on behalf of the county,
to allow the claim of 13000 damages pre
sented by Bqnaocl as administrator oft
the esetate of his brother, Pietro. who
waa killed In an accident on the Madison-street
bridge April t lMt by the fault
of "the County and ot the Portland City
ft Oregon road. ' '"'.'"".'"
The answer is short and to the point.
It simply acknowledged the receipt of
the claim, and that it contents had been
noted, etc., and placed on file; tha eoun.
ty denied any responsibility of the death
of Pietro Bonacoi. and therefor ; the
claim would have to be respectfully dis
allowed unless the proofs of the game
were forthcoming, : v
A law suit Will undoubtedly be brought
against the county, and also against the
electric road, Whose fault it was that
Bonacci waa killed.

Being Rushed, -r ..
- . . -
R. J. Jennings of the Helena Mining &
Wiling Company, returned -last evening
from a trip to Cottage Grove. Mr. Jen
nings says that Cottage Grove hotels are
crowded with strangers preparing to go
Into the Bohemia hills, prospecting -and
developing already located claims.
The railroad grading in from Cottage
Grove to the Bohemia, mines ' will, Mr.
Jennings says, be completed this fall.
About one mile of the grade is finished,
and the large force of men is. making
good progress out toward the pipuntains.
As has been heretofore announced. Sen
ator Mitchell has Introduced a bill In
Congress withdrawing six townships
from the forest reserve In which th Bo
hemia mines are located. Of the BJ.JOO
acres comprising these six townships, Mr,
Jennings says 80,000 acres are already
covered with mining claims, so that only
13,000 acres remain unclaimed. Land
Commissioner Hermann, who Is personal
ly acquainted with the Bohemia' district,
favors the withdrawal of these six town
ships, so there seems no reason why the
bill should not pass. The mining claim
ants desire the timber on these lands for
use in the development of their proper
ties."

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
ttilld, and vegetation of all kinds hae
made rapid advancement. No inurlous
frosts have occurred, and there has been
an Increase, in the amount of sunshine,
which are conditons favorable-for fruit,
much of which is now in full bloom
. In general, both fall and spring grain
are doing splendidly. Home comptdh-U
a,e made -of weedy fie'ds in Umatilla
County, and worms, are beginning to do
slight damage In Gilliam and bherman
Counties. In the Willamette valley Urn
warm, weathef has been very beneficial
to grain, but that seeded on low land
Is still somewhat sickly and yellow on
account of insufficient sunshine and dry
ing weather. Seeding in this valley will
be practically completed this week. Jn
Southern Oregon rye has begun to head,
and early planted corn has come, up
nicely. Summer fallowing Is about fin
ished in the Columbia river valley. .
Hops have made a vigorous tjrowth
during the week and the training of the
vines is in active progress. Late garden
are being planted, and the farmers in the
valley are busy preparing their land for
corn and potatoes.
Grass of all kinds has made a splendid
growth and nastures everywhere are ex
cellent. Cattle are getting fat, and the
flow of milk In the dairy districts is
heavy. Stock Is being movea to the sum
mer ranges, and sheep-shearing is in ac
tive progress. The increase in lambs
has been larger than usual, and the wool
clip is up to the average in both quan
tity and quality. '
The fruit prospects continue good, ex
cept In a few localities. The peach crop
In Wasco County la reported to be a
failure, and In portions of Benton. Polk
Lane and Linn Counties, prunes, owing
to imperfect pollenlsatlon, are dropping
badly and fears are entertained that the
yields will be very light. Cherries also
have suffered some from cold rains and
frosts, but they have not been damaged
as piuch as the prunes. The outlook for
Strawberries and apples la excellent.
INMAN TO SPEAK
Promises to Give Cold Facts on
Life's Practical Side.
After ; many Importunities from . repre
sentatives from of several societies, Rob
ert D. Inman. candidate for- Mayor, this
morning consented to deliver an adderas
at Alisky Halt next Sunday evening on
the subject of the practical side of life
from the standpoint ot one who, like' him
self, has risen from comparative obscur
ity to the position of a large employer
of labor.
Mr. Inman tola) the., gentleman with
whom ha conversed today: "I will give
you a plain talk, coming, as it win, from
a plain man. I will not effect eloquence,
but will preseat some solid facts gleaned
from a life Of Incessant toll. What-1
ray may cot please you. It may pot
please anybody. It may not even please
myself, but every Word I speak will be
hard facts. If you and your people can
stand this sort of thing, I promise, that
I will give you e talk that will not be
varnished with sophistry, glided with
policy or be done UP In kids."?
The "talk will be delivered under the
auspices of a religious denomination that
holds Its services In Alisky Ball.
