yellow fever, and says there are many
suspects.
First, the cases were reported as
malarial fever, and then after a timo
they became dengue fever. Another
wait, and they were pmnounced sus
picious, and Anally declared to be the
gpnulne yellow Jack.
During all this time the disease has
been spreading rapiely at the rate or
live or six new cases daily, until there
are now 40 cases In existence at Ed
wards. The evolution of the disease
from malarial to yellow fever was
such that the people now regard
dengue us si ni ply a more convenient
term than yellow fever.
Dr, Gulteras arrived at Edwards on
a special train, and proceeded at once
to work. After Dr. Gulteras made
his diagnosis of the suspected cases,

Bryan and Anarchy
Sedalia, Mo. Sept. 10. W. J.
Bryan spoke to nearly 25,000 people
at the fair grounds today. Mr. Bryan
said among other things:
"Those who have suggested the
burning or property or the destruc
tion or lire as a means or settling
labor disputes do not understand the
genius or our institutions. The
American peoplo are a Jaw abiding
people. When laws arc bad, they
will change the laws. Lincoln was
right when he said that no one could
better be entrusted with the enrorce
ment or the law than thoso who toll.
The Injunction has been called to aid
suppression or the strikes, and since
the strike Is ut present the only
weapon or employes, the Injunction
becomes the most useful means by
which the employers make their own
terms on employes. Lcgslatlon alone
can remedy this evil.
tatlon companies which failed In
their contracts to carry passengers by
the steamers Bristol and Eugene to
Dawson City, have arrived at a settle
ment with their passengers. The
charterers or the Btstol have agreed
to take the passengers to Wrangcl,
and tho Eugene will take them to
Telegraph creek. Each company will
contribute $1,000 ror the men's over
land Journey to Teslln lake. Thoso
who do not wish to make tho trip will
receive their per centage In cash.

The Willamette Valley Crop
Yield is Greater and Quality Finer
Than Anticipated.
The lnltiul Oregon Flax crop Is
going to rarsurpass the most sanguine
expectations both tn quantity and in
quality. Those who launched the In
dustry in this section of tho North
wet are more than pleased with tho
result of their labors. While this
years' crop Is largely experimental,
there Is everything to Indicate that
there will bo an Increased accrage of
this crop next year with 11 corre
sponding Increase Is revenue to thoso
growing the same.
A Journal reporter called at the
Willamette Valley Co.'s Mills on
North Front street this morning and
found W. E. Mitchell engaged storing
this year's crop preparatory for tho
scutching mill. Asked us to thu yield
In tho Wlllametto Valley, Mr. Mitch
ell stated It would far surpass all ex
pectation. Tho yield in the vicinity
of Salem will amount to about 75
tons. Mr.Mltohcll and a force of
about firteen men are gathering the
ciop and storing It before thu wet
weather begins.
Tho machinery ror thu scutching
mill Is ready fur shipment from Port
land and thoso superintending .the
gathering of tho crop In Salem will
probably be ready for the machinery
by October 1, wheu It will be shipped
to this city and Immediately placed
In operation. Tho machinery will bo
placed In tho building of tho "City of
Salem's Capital Mills," Just north of
tho large brick mills, and will bo op
orated exclusively by water power.
Among tho choice lots of flax being
harvested is that grown on Minto's
Island. It amounts to about twenty
tons, and Is of superior quality and Is
an excclleut yield.
Tho local managers have reserved
about 250 bushels or flax seed, but this
Is considered Inadequate to supply tho
demand next spring und several hun
dred bushels will be Imported.
QTlio rain weather did not injure
the flax In tho least but on tho con
tary proved beneficial as it assisted
materially in the bleaching or a largo
per cent or the crop.
Tho flax raiser has no mold nor lice
to contend with, which cannot bo
said or the hop grower.
