tral Pacific, aiid will reach Portland aboutthe 12th inst.

In the intervals between examinations ot '

witnesses, Mr. Drake took uote of the facthat Oregon fruits were being sold in the)eastern towns as California products. TheJdealers displayed placards labeled "Califor- - '

nia fruits," but examination oT the boxes)disclosed the fact the shippers were chieflyOregon dealer3. Peach, pear, prune andplum boxes, bearing the stamps of Oregatt .

dealers, were found at nearly every townvisited by him, viz : Salt Lake City, OgdenDenver, Omaha, Davenport, Chicago, AnnArbor, Detroit, and towns of lesser uota,and all bore placards as "California fruit.'

What i3 still more curious is the factthat retail dealers in the east chariramore for their fruits than is deiniuded atthe stalls in Portland.

Splendid peaohes were on' sale in AnnArbor, Ypsilauti, Tecum3eh and Detroit.Mich., at 8 ceuts per pound Oregon peach'es; mind you while the snua prices arecharged in Portland for peaches of inferiorquality. It seems that shippers are seud-in- g

the best qualities to distant markets.The same rules aud rates for California

and Oregon fruits prevail iu Chicago, Denver aud Salt Lake the best qualities atrates charged here iu Portland for inferior"qualities.

The decorations and illuminations of Denver in honor of the Knight Templar, MrjDrake says, was immense. The effects;produced by the electric display was superb.'

According to the Albany Herald; thqpeople down at Newport are having a livelytime over the enforcement of the Sundaylaw. Recently two of its young man werarrested for violating some of its provisionsbut were acquitted. The mayor, GeorgeLandis, aided by the district' attorney, Sey-mour Condon, of Eugene, who happened tobe over there; ordered all the saloons andplaces of amusement to be kept closed ouSunday, afod gave notice through the pressthat any violation would be vigorously pros'ecuted. Early Sunday morning two imageswere seen dangling from tho top of a flajjpole, the mayor and Mr. Condon havingbeen hung in effigy. This "was too miich forMayor Landis and he tried to take the ob-

noxious figures down, but the ropes had become entangled and they seemed to be thereto stay. The mayor then arrayed himselfwith a shovel nnd dug the pole out of the)ground aud took the images away audiburned them. The other faction then swore; '

out a complaint and had the mayor arrestedfor working on Sunday. The result of hia .

trial will be awaited with interest. A Io6of notices were posted about town accusingMayor Landis of high-hande- d anarchy.

sions on curing, treatment of hop lice, etc.There is a probability that one Afternoon orevening be given to the wool growerswho will meet during the state fair. Theagricultural evening is in charge of Prof. H.T. French) of city ; the dairying fea-

A pneumatic tired, ball bearing sulkyarrived in Portland. last Saturday consignedto R, C.

Mr. J. S. Antohelle, the well knownrailroad contractor, is in Portland, lo a

has 600 men and a large plant, which, he

says he would be glad to put to work on

the Oregon Pacific, or any of the proposedrailroads building about Albany. If - theWaterloo motor line or the Sweet Home'

road is built, he says he will be in the fieldfor bids. Mr. Antonelle . is an experiencedrailroad contractor, and notwithstandingsome recent reverses, has abundant capitalto back np Lis contracts He says hisfriends in Albany may expect to see hinthere before long. Albany Herald. :

the latter date the first white frost of thseason occurred to exposed localities of

Douglas county, injuring teuder vegetationto some extent. Iu some sections the dayswere very was in, but were always followed

by cool nights.The par:i-i- l drought of the past few week

has remained utibroken till the 4th, but al

The grain crop has all been threshed bythis time.

Hop picking is now in full blast in mostplaces. Polk county farmers report thatin yards sprayed with whale oil soap the lice

have done very little damage.Corn in a few localities seems to have re

cei?edaset back from the cool nights.Brownsville ioiks claim that the largestcrop of corn ever raised in the Willamette

yalley will lie gathered this year. Reportsfrom other sections, however, are not so

encouraging by any means. The onion

EIGHT Oil WRONG,

Which will ye have It does seem as ifsome folks prefer to have the last conditionof the liver rather than the first. Theyperpetually dose themselves with purgativestotally without virture as alerative of livertrouble. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is thesuccessful candidate for the people's choice,and yet, j ulir and ' 1m wn as it isthere are unfortunates who keep on tryingthe drastic remedies of former days. It isto the intelligent portion of the public thatthe well known and long tried properties ofthe Bitters appeal. Reason should be

guided by experience, in the matter of medication. "Hie best guide to our feet is thelamp of experience" said a great patriot ofthe early revolutionary period, ar.d the exclamation is pregnant with truth. For ovir

third of a century the Bitters daily hasmet with the indorsemmt of people .suffer-

ing from liver complaint, malaria, constipa-tion, rheumatism, debility, and troubles accompanied by dyspepsia. Latterly it hasdeclared itself and been thoroughlyapproved as a remedy fur "la grippe."

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications as they cannot reach thediseased portion of the ear There is onlyone way to cure deafness, and that ijby con-

stitutional remedies. Deafness is caU3ed byan inflamed condition of the mucous liningof the eustachian tube. When this tube isinflamed you have a rumbling sound or im-

perfect hearing, and when it is entirelyclosed, deafness is the result, and unless theinflamation can betaken out and this tube re-

stored to its normal condition, hearing will

be destroyed forever; nine cases out of teaare caused by cat irrh, which is nothing butan inflamed condition of tlvo mucous sur-faces.

We will give one hundred dollars for anycase of deafness (caused by catarrh) thatcannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.Send' for circulars; free.
