Not alone for its lumber is Puget
Sound becoming famous. 1t is not,
strictly speaking, an agricultural region.
For its forests and its fish is it most
noted. But the cultivation of hops is
looming up into large comparative pro
portion. The venture was started a
few years ago by some German immi-
grants, and this years crop is estimat-
ed at one million pounds. As hop
poles take rank among the products of
the Sound country, there is no fear of
the vines lacking the means of support
in the growing process. The poles do
not, of course, produce hops; they sim
ply bear them, until the harvest and
when in San Franeisc6 the hops into
beer are made, and poles into barrel
hoops, the order of things is 50 revers
ed that the essence of the hops, Of
which the vines entwined the poles in
their tender growing period, is in its
liquid bulk clasped by the poles made
into hoops

SIMPLY 10 RE TRUTHFuL.

A Radical who resides in Washing
ton wrote to the Post, the Democratic
daily of that city, to know why it never
mentioned president" Hayes, but in
variably alluded to him as "Mr. "
Hayes. The response of the Post is so
apt and sound that we herewith copy
and adopt it, because the DEMoeRAT
holds to exactly the same view of the
case. The Post says: The only meth
cd of putting down a fraud or wrong
is by constantly battling it. The origi-
nal Abolitionists taught us that. They
never even recognized a Constitution
that recognized slavery. For many
years they existed by sufferance. As
they grew in numbers they were de-
spissd, hated, opposed, and finally
were courted, and from auxiliaries here
and there in close political fights, be-
came the dictators of party's action.
NIr. Hayes was not elected President,
and we have no doubt he knows it.
The office belongs to another, provided
our pretense of self-government is not
hollow sham. An Electoral Commits
sion, born of Nations fears, a body
unknown to the Constitution, and vet
devised to listen to and examine evi-
denee and decide fairly, destroyed all
respect for itself by refusing to hear
any evidence at all. 1t closed an exist
ence of fraud and faulsehood by enact
ing lie, of which Mr. Hayes is the
beneficiary. To call him "Mr Presi-
dent" is to countenance the lie. To
call him de faeto President, which he
is, eats too much type, and hence we
call him plainly Mr.. Hayes. There is
no attempt at sarcasm in such an ap-
Pellation. 1t is simply determination
to be truthful

went on smoothly and according to

Southern Oregon secured the Governor,

Rocky Earhart and Ed. Hirsch to make
the connection. No matter if they did

The members Of the Northern NJ. E.
Conference held at Salem on the 18th
and 18th instant, held a praise meeting
on the evening Of the 18th to manifest
the joy they felt at the result of the
conference.
The exercises were commenced at the
bookstore of H. D. Boon, in order that
an organ accompaniment might be had
to the songs of praise.
The choir opened the meeting by
singing that glorious old jubilee song,
'rm Methodist bred
And Methodist born"
In magnificent style.
Next was sung song having partic-
ular reference to their choice for secre-
tary of State,
Rocky my soul in do bosom Of the Abraham"
Which was followed by
'Boen listening"
The verse
''scma say that John the Baptist was nothing but
Jew,
But the Holy Bible tells US he preacher too
Was enthusiastically encored, as being
peculiarly appropriate.
They then rejoieed over the downfall
of the wicked and success of the church
in the hymn.
Old saian's maj. and I'm 50 glad,
Send them angels down"
A special reference to the desire Of
the leaders OF the church to fll the
halls of the State and National Legisla-
lures was found in the song,
g There's big e.,nipn,ectin' in the Heaven, my Lord
How long to go there, too
After singing several other hymns,
the crowd had 50 largely increased that
the meeting adjourned to Reeds Opera
House, where Elder PEBBLES presided.
Here the Rev. Harvey K. Hines de
livered telling sermon, and was fol
lowed by Bro. ]. F. Caples, who inter
spersed his discourse with some very
pleasant Sunday School anecdotes.
Bro. Caples was followed by Rev. j.
W, Watts, who commenced by saying
that he did not feel quite well, but con,
cluded by saying that he was quite
happy; and he certainly smiled in a
most remarkable manner
Next came Sister A. ]. Duniway,
who gave her experience in very abls
manner.
Rev H Hurley now stepped to the
front and offered up a short prayer that
the candidates, and himself in particu.
lar, might be elected next June. Bro
Hurley then called upon the mourners
to come forward, in response to which
Capt. \. B. Humphrey gave his expert
enee. He stated that although he had
sought in earnest he regretted to say
that he had sought in vain. While
others had found the good things, he
was left to MOURN However, he was
not discouraged, but would continue te
seek, and hoped the brethren would aid
him with their prayers.
Rev. G. o. Holman offered up the
concluding prayer, that they all might
find peace in june next.
After singing the doxology the meet
ing was dismissed-the usual collection
being omitted for the obvious reason
that the Conference is expected here
after to be supported frem the State
funds.

Senator Mitchell rises to explain,
through a letter IN the Register, Why
the mail contract between Albany and
Lebanon was let to Barker at $3.50
while Donaca's bid was S700. he SAYS
the latter bid was not received in time
to be considered, and Barker's being
the lowest bid en- file at the date OF
awarding contracts, he was awarded
the contract The Senator further says
that he knows nothing about the change
of schedule time on tho route, and viii
see that no change is made.
This is all very well, being mesi
probably correct, and if Mr. Mitchell
had stopped with this simple explana
ton it would have been, as the high
school girl says, livery NICE" but h,
takes occasion to step down from his ex
alted Senatorial position and make ar
undignified slash at the 0regorn news
papers, with the charge that they treai
him with injustice, and winds up hi,
epistle with the following truly states
manlike and elegant sentence;
If after understanding the matter fully either tn,

posed e ccnsuro me- they arc 50 far as am concern

We have no idea who the Oregoniar'
correspondent alluded to was, but hi.
letters to that paper indicated that he
was an intelligent and honorable citi
zen, rightly complaining of an apparent
injustice and seeking to find where the
fault should rest, and it certainly occurs
to us that Mr.. Mitchell dishonors hi,
position by branding him "contempta
bic scamp Common decency should
have led Senator Mitchell to have re
Trained from this coarse exhibition o
spleen. The dignity and courtesy o
official life that is popularity attributed
to so exarlted an official as a Unitec
States Senator, to say nothing Of am
other public servant from constable up
should have stood in the way Of tn,
Senator's rage and prevented his bite
denuneiation of one of his constitaency
