Smith, after a few months' "vacation," is again occupying quar ters in the city jail. Smith has been washing dishes at the Willamette ho tel, but last evening concluded to wash the inner man and for this purpose se cured tho best whiskey he could get. After getting himself into "shining" condit ion he 'began to make things tin pleasant for the lady employes of the bote! and was finally subdued by an upper cut straight" from the shoulder of the genial night clerk, wDoc " Tucker, who played the part of the hero. The police were then called and took Smith in charge. Session Proved Tame The session of the police court held yesterday morning resulted in one man being fined $10, while four others were floated. A. F. Wilson, alias F. A.

They Missed It Every observant person who visits the Lewis and Clark fair remarks upon the fact that Oregon lost a great oppor tunity for advertising herself. Califor nia has a magnificent building, filled with samples of the products of that state. Ho has Washington. The Ore gon displays are largely in the agricul tural building. They are placarded with the names of the counties. But a great many people from the east fail to graps the situation. They see "Ben ton County" or 4 Polk County," for instance, placarded nv front of an ex hibit in the agricultural building, bat they do not know wnether it is Benton or Polk county, Alabama, Georgia or Oregon. Thev often ask. Thousands not take the trouble to ask. The Oregon exhibits should have been Placed in the Oregon building, all to other. It U too late to remedy the nwtake. That it was a mistake there no question, though perhaps no one particular is to blame for it. There TS Soother srmt mutiVn in nmtttini - - . ink. v . --.- - - Ttio Laxative Dromo Qxinino tszuxs.

The parties were married in this city on March 28, 1004, and have since re sided near Silverton.

Footing Assessment Roll Marion county's 1905 assessment roll is now in the bands of County Clerk Roland and his deputies are at work footing, up the long columns of figures in order to prepare a summer' for the sceretay of stae. This is a tedious task and it will require many weeks to complete the work. Lntil the footings are made it will be im possible to compare the figures with those of last year's roll, but County Assessor F.. J. Rice is of the opin ion that there will be put very little if any, lifferenee between the grand total valuations. He believes the in crease from improvements will offset the amounts allowed for exemptions under the new, law. Court Working on Bins The Marion county commissioners' court, in regular September session, is faithfully grinding away on the claim docket, and will dispose or all bills against the county before taking, up other matters. There is nothing of especial importance on file to come up for consideration duitig the present terra, although there are enough minor matters to occupy the attention of tne court for a number of days.

HOP PICKERS ARE SCARCE Hop Growers Finding Some Difficulty in Securing Help to Harvest Their Crops. With the hops approaching la stage of maturity that will make their rapid harvest an absolute necessity if the crop is saved, ' tbe growers now find themselves confronted with an appar ent shortage of pickers. It was thought some, timo back that their would be plenty of harvesters for the hop fields but since the growers have oegun to scramble for them it is found mat the supply is limited and some little anx iety is felt by some of the most ex tensive growers who are .obliged to em ploy several hundred pickers to get their crops out of the way in due sea son. . The hojs arc rifening nicely! and the prospects are bright : for an excellent quality of produce, but, if the j scarcity o pickers becomes more serious than is at present anticipated, the quality will not be depricated materially, but l..eir is danger of the hops becoming over ripe before they can be gather ed in. Picking in this section of the valley will begin Thursday, in some yards, but generally; the first of the week. , . Same Condition at Aurora. j Aurora, Sept. 6.--Hoppicking has commenced in most yards but as yet there has been a scarcity of pickers and the, work has been retarded, Jt is too early to make a correct estimate as to the yield but enough has been picked to show that it will be very uneven. E. M Bracket has finished ' picking j and ac cording to the number of boxes, his crop is almost double as compared with last year. On the other hand, Henry Muessig, who finished Monday, reports that his crop will be less than 0 per cent of last year's yield. - DAVIS At the family home on the Liberty road, two miles south of -a-lem, Oregon, Tuesday, September 5, 1905, to Mr. and Mrs. Edward E.

Cuba Said to Be Home o Boll WeeriL . .But Pest Cannot .Work During Bainy Months Preference for' Sugar, and .. Tobacco. : ' NEW YORK, Sept. 7. (Special.) Four bales of cotton weighing seventy five pounds eaeh which arrived in New York from Cuba a few days ago repre sent samples from the crop raised on the island. Two years ago when cotton prices went kiting, attempts were made in various parts of Cuba to start cot ton growing on a seale sufficiently to be competitive. Although not altogether successful, the result has ' been rather gratifying than otherwise. It has been demonstrated by experience, it is said; that cotton of the finest quality long staple sea island that brings from 23 to 25 cents per pound and yields some thing over 500. pounds tothe acre, can be grown, in any part of the island of Cuba, or the isle of Pinos, particularly the latter place. On the other hand, the boll weevil, the cotton plant's deadly foe, flourishes in the Cuban climate as almost no place else on earth. It is found in every district where cotton is grown and effectually prevents tbe crop from assuming any particular . propor tions. It has been - suggested, however, that Cuba has one advantage over' the south, in that for at least a part of the year the boll weevil is unaoie to work. During tbe rainy season, which com prises the months ot July, August, Sep tember and October, the heavy rains and extreme beat keep the weevil from damaging the plants, so that if the crop were planted prior to July 1, instead of April, as in the southern states, by the time the boll weevil begins to work in November,there would be a good frop on tbe producing plants. It is estimat ed that by this method of raising cot ton, the yield should be, of tbe long or short staple, from one to one and a half bales. te -the acre. Of course," for the succeeding four months the dry sea sons the weevil would have full sway, but with one erop folly matured the planters would not be so badly off. Un til some sure extermination for the wee vil is found, however, men will prefer to invest their Cuban dollars, in sugar and tobacco, but the possibilities of cot ton growing in the island still remain amazingly good.

Impossible to Forecast Yield From Be ' mats Obtained as There ta No Stand ard of Weight to Go by When Pick ing by Weight. - . 1 The majority of tbe growers of hops in the vicinity of this city began the harvest of their crops yesterday morn ing, but picking will not become gen eral until the first of next week. 8a far as can be1 learned,; and information is very indefinite and unsatisfactory, the yield is coming down welL but no -comparison can be made witn that of lastrear. This is true for several rea sons, principal among which is that this is the first year that picking by weight has become general and the growers have not had an opportunity to make a test of the yield. It is con ceded by all that nobody; can tell what the yield will be, or forecast it intel lectually until the hops are in tne bale. Then and not till then will it be known wnat the yield of the Willam ette valley will be, and no comparison; ean be made with former yield. . II may be said, so far as this sec tion is concerned, tbe market is stag nant, and all' hops that are changing hands are sold by growers who have become panic strieken over the uner tainty of the situation' and are letting go at figures tnat are regarded' as a great sacrifice. Only two sales have been reported within the past two days., One of these was 112 bales of baby hops o the Mark Skiff lot, which went' to Laehmnnd & Co. at , 12 cents, the. other is tbe Breeze Gibson lot, consist ing of forty-nine bales, which was sold yesterday to the same firm at 13 cents. These' hops are rated as choice. Pickers are Still pouring into tne alley, but there is a shortage appar ent, and many of the growers msy have to run short handed. Fortunate ly the hops are not far enough ad vanced to be harmed by any slight de lay tfius occasioned, and it may be for the good of the grower, as it will force "him to allow his product to be come thoroughly matured before pick ing. - V Hops Bad In New York, George Rose was yesterday in re ceipt of a letter from R. M. Rose at Portlandsviile, N. Y-, which paints the New York hop business in anything but brilliant eolors. Mr.. Rose says: 'Th'e hops are not here to pick. My twine money has been thrown away, as there are no hops on the strings, all being on top of poles. I am picking in the new yard, having moved in at 12:30, and I find there the largest hops I ever saw, but th;y are lousy, greasy and mouldy. I have, never in all my life seen so many lite, as everjr hop is just covered, and in addition t'aey arc mouldy and blaek. .. , 4 ,4 "Liters is paying 75 cents per bo to get his hops picked, two gangs of pickers having quit. The ( hops - are spoiling fast. A lot of yards will be. but- poor, miserable trash; the quality will be very, very poor. "I have sold to Kenyon k - Saxton for 20 cents. I don't dare hold the hops a minute. The Comer yard picked 240 boxes last year, while this j ear it yielded but 140 boxe. That ysrd las done a Httle better than the old yard, but there are 4000 hills in the Comer yard and the yield amounted to 100 boxes, not a veryig yield to .he Fere. A week before hop picking commenced, men who saw the yard said that two acres of it would go 1200 4o 1500 ponnds to the acre. "Not a big grower or a little grow er in Otsego county will get half a -rop 30,000 bales tells the story, but the' poor quality will press the - market down. J. Colborn will not pick near what he did last year. He expected before picking began that - he urould ! get 2000 pounds to tbe sere. ' "I should have picked 650 loes. That would have been a fair yielL I will not. pick over 300 boxes if I do' that. I have picked 240 now. I am sick and disgusted trying to raise hops in this God-forsaken state." ! TO GET MONEY BACK. Uncle Sam After the Dough Like All Timber Speculators. WASHINGTON, D. O, Sept. 7 (Special.)-'-As a ! first step toward re imbursing the federal government for its great expense in maintaining for est reserves over tbe country, a thor ough investigation of the reserves in California is under wsy to locate the principal bodies of timber which are ripe for cutting and which may be logged with the least injury to the forest. As rapidly as possible maps and estimates will be made and plans will be prepared for cutting the mature trees . under methods which will - im prove and perpetuate the forest, rath er than destroy it. Among the lum bermen and miners of California the demand for reserve timber, is steadily increasing. In the Sierras "alone forty or fifty million feet will be sold in the coming year to lumber firms, and large quantities will be used in other parts of the slate by miners, irrigation com panies and settlers. Carefully and conservatively logged, the timber re- j sources of the reserves promise to con tribute much to tbe development ' of the Pacific coast. : ' - Don't delay a minute.
