Ofilee with Jas. Fletcher. Tlie Salem Statesman of yesterday had the following to say about William Scott, of this county, who was pardon ed by tbe governor Monday last: “William Scott yesterday morning left the Oregon penitentiary a free man. He was fastened within those walls on the 9th day of July, 1890, under sen tence of ten years for manslaughter, having been convicted of the crime in Yamhill county. Governor 1‘enuoyer signed his pardon Monduy afternoon and at a quarter to 11 o'eloek yesterday morning the old man was free. “About & o’clock Monday evening Assistant Warden Joe. Cavanaugh went into the chapel and called for Mr. Scott and another prisouer who had also been pardoned, for tlie purpose of taking their measures for new suits of citizen’s clot lies. Mr. Cavanaugh ask ed them what they would like for a fourtii of July dinner in the way of something ■ different from the usual prison bill of fare. ‘ Old man Hcott,’ as he is best known, spoke up and said that he did not care for anything different except ing that he would like to be permitted to cat in the open air. Mr. Cavanaugh further interrogated him as to bow he would like to partake of a dinner out side the prison gates. The old man be gan to look non-plussed—one reason probably was that the assistant warden hold some papers iu his hand, He did not answer readily. Finally he was told that he could have the privilege of eating his Fourtii of July dinner out side aud away from the prison aud many more meals if he so desired. At this he understood what was meant aud he stood perfectly dumb for some minutes. Shortly lie recovered ills power of speech and then told tlie as sistant warden ills past history. Mrs. Cavanagh being present noticed that during tlie whole of his convention lie never faltered but told his story in a straightforward manner, appearing as though he was eutirely innocent of tlie horrible crime for which he was con victed and has already passed nearly three years within tlie walls of a pen itentiary. “A reporter called at tbe penitentiary shortly after 10 o’clock yesterday and as he stepped into Superintendent Downing's office, this official anil ills clerk were making out the final papers for the discharge of Mr. Scott, who was in the room at the time. Mr. Scott was dressed in a new suit of dark gray and wore a new woolen shirt and neck tie. He knew that his destination was the farm home of his sou, C. G. Scott, near Carlton, Yamhill county, and he could not rest easy till he got there. He was entitled^to go to the town from which he was committed or to any otli- er of equal distance. He wanted ti ticket to Carlton and the supertendeut gave it to him via Portland. At first he intended to have left on the 1:40 train but as it was held here until 6 p m., he passdd tbe waiting hours in seeing the sights at Oregon’s capital. “He was asked to give a statement concerning tlie murder of his wife and his arrest and conviction, but lie desir ed to say nothing as it would only be repeating an old story. “In regard to his pardon Scott said he was surprised beyond expression. He was looking for it earlier in the year but as it did not come he had given up the thought and had conclud ed to make the best of the remaining seven years before him in the prison walls. Upon bis being received at the penitentiary three years ago lie was re lieved of *1.70 which he bad at the time, together with some small trink ets. Yester lay he was given this mon ey with *.> added from the state, and his little bundle of weariug apparel. He bade all the officers farewell and it was precisely 10:47 a. m. as he took his first step outside the tall iron gate in front of the prison. He says he may conclude to go and live with his son at Colfax, Washington, after he has vis ited the section of country around his former home in Yamhill county.” Will Certainly Build. R. E. Mulcahy,superintendent cf the Oregon Pacific railroad, will start for New York on the Sth, and Receiver Hadley will go a few days later. Mr. Hadley expects to arrange, while there, for the placing of receiver’s certifityitee enough to complete the read over the Cascades to the Deschutes river. It is thought a million dollars n ill do this, thus tapping nearly half of Oregola in territory—an empire within itself—now without a railroad. This would be a grand thing for the road, for south eastern Oregon and for the Willamette valley. Branch lines through the valley on both sides of the river,tapping Portland on the east side and Astoria on the west side would make this one of the great est railroad properties in the world.

At tention directed to the Pacific ooust is a good thing far every section. Every one admires the magaifleent display of California at the exposition, but not all would be suited to the country which produces only the products that the Bear state here exhibits. Oranges, lemons and pineapples do please the palate, but they will nut answer all the demands of the stomach. From the proportion of products exhibited by California, the visitor to the fair would feel that to live in the Sunset state would be to subsist only on their lux uries. Although California has ex pended nearly *1,000,006 to advertise herself at the World’s fair she has not a representative display. Oregon with only *50,000, has made a more varied and representative showing of prod ucts than her southern sister has (lone with 20 times that amount. The editor of the Salem Independent has made a visit to the jute mill at Walla Walla. He went through there to gather statistics and is of the opin ion that the project in this state will not lie remunerative, aud that it is a “big steal.” The officers of the I. O. O.

THE BURLINGTON IS COMING. - Guaranteed to cure Bilious Attacks ua> I Coostlpattoo. «"«all Bile Bran» An eastern Oregon paper says: “Tlie Chicago, Burlington A Quincy surveyors have crossed over the Idaho state line and are uow making surveys and photographing the topography of tbe country along the different propos ed routes of the line from Boise to Port land.’’ Geo. P. Litchfield of Salem, whose term of office as special Indian agent for the United States government ex pired u few days ago, received a docu ment from Washington yesterday in forming him that his efforts in secur ing a right of way over the Crow In dian reservation for the Burlington had been approved. This was Mr. Litchfield’s last official act, and one of his most important, he thinks, for Oregon’s interests. This right of way will allow the Burlington to build from Sheridan, Wyoming, to Billings, Montana, through the Crow reservation (after securing the right of way from individual Indians; Mr. Litchfield’s work being on the com munity land of the reservation). Mr. Litchfield thinks this is the turning point of the road for Oregon. He saw several gangs of surveyors. Some of them had worked for the Oregon Pa cific and it was their impression that the road might join the Oregon Pacific somewhere. Anyway they are headed for Oregon, and they will probably not be long in getting here after the finan cial situation eases up, for the Burling ton is one of the greatest corporations In tbe world. Tlie writer would not be surprised to see Burlington trains running iuto Sa lem before the end of 1894. They now end nowhere, up in a Mon tuna desert, and they must get to the deep water of tbe Pacific in order to make their far western spur profitable, and they will likely take in all the big towns of Oregon. The Burlington is not a road to be tied up to a stump by stopping in one place.— Salem States man.

CHENEY & Co , Toledo, O. <W“Sold by Druggists, 75e Tillamook Item?. The week o|>ened cool aud cloudy; but from Thursday, June 29, the weath er has been warm, and sunshine has prevailed. The uightoyet remain cool. The temperature has risen from 3 to 5 degrees for the week. No rain has fal len during the week, save an occasional sprinkle on the 2d inst. The warmth and sunshine have been of great benefit to vegetation of all kinds; while a good warm rain of twenty hours would be very beneficial, yet where the soil •..■as properly culti vated no added moisture is especially necessary. Haying is in progress, hence for it warm sunshine is needed. The cool nights retard growth and de velopment of much of the vegetation. Early sown oats are very tine; late sown oats are not so good, and in a few sections wire worms are working. Hops are growing quite rapidly, save the late plauted new yards, and they too promise u good average crop. The lice have appeared, under the influence of the warm weather, and spraying is actively engaged in. With proper care the hop crop will be enormous this year, for climatic conditions have so far been very favorable to it. Due to the cool nights corn has very slow growth; but it has a healthy appearance and bids fair to be a good crop. Apples con tinue to drop from the trees. Apples, peaches, cherries and pears will be a short crop, possibly on the whole not more than three-fourths of a crop. Cherries are rapidly ripening and the markets are well supplied. The crop is better in Douglas, Josephine and Jack- sou counties than in the other coun ties. Prunes and plums continue to promise large crops. Strawberries are unusually plentiful. Raspberries are ripening. The wheat crop is more en couraging this week, tlie warm weath er being a great help to it. Some corre spondents note fleldsof wheat that will yield 40 and more bushels to tHe acre. We have placed a large lot of Clothing, Hats, etc On our oounter in order to dispose of them before our Fall goods arrive.

Some of this clothing will be sold at Less Than the Price of the Cloth I EASTERN OREGON. Since June 30th, warmer weather has prevailed. The frosts of the 18, 19, 20 and 21 of June did considerable dam age to potatoes and other tender vege tation east and south of the Blue moun tains. On the 2d light rains fell in the eastern and northeastern counties; but it was not heavy enough to be of that benefit which is desired. The winds have been fresh in force and variable indirection, though considerable north erly winds. Rain is badly needed for the cereal crops, especially for that sown in spring plowed land. Only in unusually fa vored years does the cereal crop yield any good crop when it is sowed in spring plowed laud. Tho summer fal low and fall sown grain is most prom ising, and will not be injured by the absence of rain; but it would be mate rially beuetitted by rain. The present outlook indicates only a fair wheat crop in Wasco, Gilliam and Morrow counties; in all the counties, however, the late spring sown grain will not make half a crop aud much of it most likely be cut- for hay unless a good heavy rain should occur soon. The fruit prospects are good in Union county and in the Snake river country. They are fair in the other sections. Haying is generally in progress, and good yields are reported. Appearingly the climatic conditions have.been fa vorable to the cereal crop, yet many of the correspondents report crops not the average. The warmer weather is causing the snow to melt more rapidly; but the major portion has already been melted so that there is no longer danger of floods. / B. 8. P ague , Observer.
