Hoofer returned last night from the Bt Helens mining district, and brings back some very flattering report of that section. Mr. Hoofer is one of the original discoverers of the dlstriot, having de voted 12 years to prospecting and mining In the picturesque gulches of the famous mountain for which the district is named. While there he put a force of men at work on the Jumbo mine, owned and operated by the St. Helens Gold & Cop per Company, of Portland They will run a 100-foot tunnel in on the ledge of the property, and will alee do some de velopment '.work on the Hidden Treasure pwned by the same company. ' Mr. Hoofer reports that an important strike was made on the Polar Star Just before he returned. The tunnel had been3 driven in about BOO feet, and a few shots of powder exposed a large body of high grade copper ore which covered the entire face of the tunnel. The Polar 8 tar Is owned by the Cascadla Mining Company of this city. Thousands of tons of ore bave been extracted from the property and are lying on the dump awaiting trans portation facllltes for shipment. With the exception of in the higher al titudes the snow has pretty well disap peared, and the dlstriot is beglnnng to aa- aume a lively aspect. Until recently it Was Impossible to get In supplies, on. ac count of snow and the Impassable condi tion of the roads and trails, and as a re sult the various camps were running short of provisions. Now, however, there is a plentiful supply on hand and work Is be ing resumed at quite a number of camps. On the properties where work la being pushed might be mentioned tine Jamanla, lb a Earl and the Bronze Monarch. A Chicago company Is soon to begin de velopment work on the Golden Crown.

Quite a breezy trial took place in the East Side Justice court yesterday when F. I Lent was arrested on the charge pf larceny of a large amount of cord wood from the property of F. O. Waddicka near Mount Scott, i Mr. Waddicks is' af present a resident of California. , When he heard that Lent was taking the wood from his land ha notified him that no more must be taken. Lent had cut several hundred dollara' worth of the fuel and was adverse to FAVORS EAST F. C. Ferguson, a prominent resident of the Bast Side, and a member of the firm of Mantling & Ferguson, hardware dealers, in vpenklng of the loca tion of the Lewis and Clark' Centennial, saidj,. "Of all the plaees' suggested In tills city for the site for the Lewis and Clark Centennial there la no Bite that is more favorably situated for the establishment of ,tne Institution than the Llidd and Hawthorne tracts lo cated on Hawthorne avenue and East Twelfth street. , "This tract la so near -the heart of the city that It. can atet he; called right In It. It is the most accessible for street car and ' viiiroad traffic thereby making It more easily reached by the visitors al the bringing in of the exhibits. "The Ladd and Hawthorne tracts are so superior to the other sites men tioned that there Is hardly any comparison. When the Fair Is In opera tion, there will be a big demmvl from all sides for accommodations, end where Will they get themT Tho, West Side is ao crowded already that there Is no further room for the accommodation of visitors, and when the Fair Is open there will be absolutely none Now there is only one place where ,hex can.buijd, jiuse for, thelJf juaa.nijL. t1" 1r m 'lM.igmirfciBMirjM rmiiiiiift ine nne ravine in Hawtnorne springs could easily and without muoh expense be used for a lagoon or lake.

'It transpired at the examination held yesterday that a man named Sutford had sold some timber on his land to Lent, and, that when he wanted to take off some of his property that he' got on the wrong land. Lent Is a prominent citizen of Mount Scott, and the judge, thinking that a mistake had been made in the removal of the wood, the defen dant was discharged. The Theatres THB BAKJSR. Tho Pollard company, In "The Gaiety Girl," at the Baker, are win ning new -friends and reclaiming the old, as this was the opera that Introduced them to the Portland public The dash and brightness with which the entire per formance Is marked assures Its popular ity, and each of the company carries hta or ber part with brilliant . effect.

Of the bicycle dealers in the city per hapa none Is enjoying a better or more. lucrative trade than Is F. P. Keenan, 126 First street. Mr. Keenan carries In stock Columblas, Hartfords and Monarcha In all the various models and styles, and operates In connection a remarkably well equipped repair shop. Mr. Keenan is' for unate in having in charge of his repair ahop an expert mechanic who Is per hapa without a peer In his lino la this part of the country. This man is pec- iilly expert In repairing; and adjusting chalnlesa wheels. Many a Hob has been successfully done by him that would otherwise ..have 'been sent to factories in the East for accomplishment. Mr. Keenan insists that the Columbia Is the perfect wheel. The old Columbia pedal that was used when wheels were Very high priced, and which was re placed by a cheaper pedal when the price of wheels was reduced has again this year been Introduced into the make-up of the Columbia Wheel. The pedal la dust-proof, gives narrower tread and la very staunchly made. The fork-crown, forged In one piece. Is another feature of the wheel that he is proud of talking about. The new erank. hanger, made In two pieces. and In such 'a way as to be easily re moved, Is another very much appreciated feature of the wheel. Mr. Keenan carries a full -line of sun dries, supplies, Hartfdrd tires, and the Morris, Bar West and A. R C Coaster Brakes, the latter of which la the only coaster brake that baa been found to be practicable on a chalnless wheel. Visitors to the store . are always wel come, ana no pains are spared to rur- nlsh any wheel Information possible. Arraigned for -Larceny.

Although the Pioneers are almost all rather old, "they were to be seen in all parts of the city at all times of day. This year's attend ance exceeded last year's by about 100. All registered at the rooms of the Ore gon Historical Bociety and took especial delight in gazing once more on the im plements In use when they were young, The climbing of the stairs, at the City Hall did not seem to deter these pathfln- ers from visiting the Historical Society.

'.' IS PORTLAND'S HANDMAIDEN ASTORIA, June S0.-To The Journal) 7M second great baaetlt to result 'to Port land -fro a Astoria's seaport supremacy would be tho addition, of many million dollara in value to the wheat product of the WllametteV Snake and Columbia Val leys, Portland's tributary country, as a consequence of the railway concentration that la bound to follow Astoria's seaport supremacy. All of which would go Into Fortland'a trad. The guaranty of railroad concentration at her gates, through Astoria's seaport supremacy, is auttclent to cause Intelli gent PorUandera to take up their mach etes in defense of Astoria as the seaport. But the addition o millions of dollars annually to the trading capacity of Fort land'a patrons, is a far more substantial benefit. It Is what Portland merchants are vitally interested in and should have or fight. That Increase In trade for all Portland merchanta would be at the expense of one firm a ship chandlery concern that has been' forced already to divide with As toria merchanta or lose it all. Surely all merchants, outside of the C. F. Beebe Company, would be glad of the exchange. In order to -that seaport supremacy, and consequent Increase in the value of wheat to result from making Astoria a common point on exports. It 1h needful to assume that, our Columbia River bar entrance shall have such deptu m will admit the largest vessels of commerce. "Heavy bot toms make cheap freiRhts" is the axiom, of commerce. The heaviest bottoms would give the lowest ocean charters on grain ships. Tho down grade to Astoria would give, rail rates that Pugct Sound could not compete with. Conceding a common point for Astoria with Sound ports, however, . the wheat would fetch nioro for delivery at Astoria than It now fetches, after the lowest charters shall 1m? secured by reason of heavy bottoms, fresh water sndpofit; piers to be used in transfer from rail to sail.' 1 After long years of careful watching, 10 per cent Increase Is what 1 have figured out as the result of a change of seaport basis to Astoria, with a proper entrance, which, by" the way, a sea dredger can se cure for us In 20-days according, to" Chief Engineer Gillespie. This Is about 6 cents a bushel -more than the present ruling Some effort to deny this mnerence may be made. Unttt three years Or so ago, between Portland and San Francisco prices, that waa the conceded difference. It waa so quoted in the wheat prices and In the wheat charters, by the dally press. It bad prevailed for a long time. The wheat growers knew well that they could pay ( cents a bushel more freight, from Pendleton for Instance to Ban Francisco, and get 6 cents more for their wheat than In Portland and, perhaps, a cent or so more besides. It waa eo quoted to me In San Francisco by President fuming of the Capitol Flouring Mills In October, ISM. It la th normal difference, due to cheaper ocean charters and a first-class port Mr. Demlng was then complaining that Wilcox had run the San Francisco millers out of the Oriental trade because of this lower price of wheat. Suddenly a change In quotations, both of charters and of wheat prices occurred. Simultaneously, a change In the Oriental trade happened. The' southern millers began to get their share of that trade. The charters and wheat prices, aa quoted, were equalized. The Pacific wheat pool had heen formed. An arbitrary rai;e waa made In this Basin. The farmers gained nothing; but the WllcOX pooj raked off the 10 per cent of advance. China, prices the difference between Oregon's values and California prices. There Is no other explanation of the sudden change, ine Columbia bar was getting worae. No other economic change for the better could account for the equalization, it was a mere matter ot pool quoiauonn. The true difference is 10 per cent. That sum would go into the farmers' pockets on making Astoria the Beaport, with Improved bar a first-class entrance. li any one wishes to debate the ques tion, I shall he glad to discuss It more at large. Espec ially would I ask the Ore Ionian to chip In on this and on all the propositions T am making in this series of articles. Until denied, I assume it to be conceded. The result, then, of Astoria's seaport supremacy would be to add 10 per cent to the trading capacity of Portland's pa trons. This is 6 cents a bbshel on one and a half million tons of wheat. Thl equals some three million dollars added to the wealth of the Basin, annually. It could not go to Astoria merchants be cause of the law laid down In my first letter the topography that with Astoria as the seaport, concentrates all the rail ways at Portland., This would be the exchange that Portland would make for the loss of the ship chandlery to follow the stopping of gram ships at, Astoria wharves. I understand that General Beebe, by the way, now considers It to Portland's Inter est to have this use of her ocean sea port If he does not kick, no other mer chant Is hurt The resulting increase of trade would make things hum around Portland's marts. It would be a grand step forward her career. This addition of values would follow from the cheapening of ocean charters. Another addition of an equal amount would follow from an open river. It would flow, however, from cheapened rail rates from the wheat fields. Both these economic elements are of the highest importance to Portland. They would, together, secure her com mercial primacy In the West Astpria's seaport supremacy is Portland's highest concern. But there are three Other benefits to Portland to follow Astoria's seaport su premacy In comparison with which this one will seem Insignificant In aucceeding articles, Mr. Editor, I shall, with your permission, submit these plain truths that hare only to be stated In order to receive general aasent " 8IDENT DELL.

It Is needless to mention that th reunion takes place on Multnomah Field today and tomorrow, where that charm ing native of Oregon, the rose and ail its descendants are assembled.

Like a woman who smllea most charm ingly when In the most congenial environ ment, Oregon is the home of the rose.
