Just what i to become of the hop market in Oregon and .; tb'e United Htatea is beginning to worry a few who ar particularly interested in aeeiiig the price of the commodity go lower. Tbo qiK Htion' might also te asked, what will become of the brewers of the United Btatew, who, according to the popular impression, are not yet supplied with sufficient hops to Is at them through the remainder of the year in case they con tinue to brew to favorite beverage, a it may to expected they will. These questioni are brought out ,by the startling information leaking out that about 2,0OU le of hops, whrch Were sold to dealers on last Maturday, were for shipment to Jondon. an-4 that exactly that number of bales less may le counted on for the local supply. Further, this, development ehowed that the demand fromiliondon wa active, and that stllKmoro hops would likely be shipped from this country, unlewt Io cat brewers began bidding up at once. It may be asstinuMl that while sush a large shipment waa purchajw-d in and around nalem in one day, other deal ers in other localities might have been purchasing on foreign orders. The purchasers , of the above lots were Ed. Herpes, tleo. Dofcas, and E. C. Kirkpatrjckj of Iallaa. These hops were booght indiscriminately from both growers and dealers. ,k . Yesterday another sale was reported on the streets, consulting of a small lot liarley Company leing the purchasers, at 31 1-2 rentsj; the American Hop & and ('has. Livesley, the seller.

Silverton experienced a shock fast night at 12:05 that she will long remember. Those citizens who had retired gave the blast little attention, thinking it was some one celebrating the election. A large crowd wa. assembled - at J. C.

Kvery window in the front of the Central Hotel was blown out in short, that section of the city looks as if it bad been bombarded by the Japs. The explosion was caused by a large charge .of dynamite being set on the railroad switch in front of Olson Bros.' Saloon. . Whether it was the work of some one wlfh malicious intent, or some one not acquainted with the damage that could be -lone with dynamite is not known bnt probably the latter 1 the case, as about six pounds of the stuff all fused, capped and ready to explode was left on the walk in front of Geo. Custer's store. No One acquaint ed with the nature of the stuff would surely have left it there, and set off a charge near it. ., - .-:.-.
