The Market Removal

There appears to be a general sentl-
nent against the removal of the curb
stone market from King street, no mat
ter where else other markets may be es
tAblished. The market on King street
has become an institution, that TO dis.
tur b, unsettles more or less tie whole
mercantile business of the city. The
remonstranCes against tsremoval show
the gener al desire for it to remain where
Il is. as long as curb stone markets are
permitted in the city. No stronger
plea aga inst the removal of the market
has been presented, than that OF the
market people themselves, who are al
most unanimous in their protests
against removal These remonstrances
will be presented to the City Council
next Thursday evening, together with
NUN bers of others, and the City Coun-
Gil woul d do well to consult pubic
opinion before acting hastily upon the
uuestion. The market people them
selves should be consulted in the mat
ter, as t hey are one of the parties most
interested. The remonstrance from
them shows that while they are opposed
to removal from King street, they are
not opposed to the establishment OF q
market on Madison street. This would
not make such radical change as &c
remove entirely from King street and
establish two strange markets at once
The City Council should weigh well al
the petitions and remonstrances, ant
bring argument to bear against argu
me mt, in order to arrive at the truth o
the matter. 1t should not be forgotten
tn at the uppopularity of the King stree
market arose through the trouble tn
hucksters occasioned, by occupying tn
choice places and clutterlnR up tn
streets with their fruit and truck. Thi
objection is now removed by the remo'
nj of the hucks5ers, and now on mark'
mornings King street presents more
an old time appearance. The quostic
lis. why should the market be remove
from King btreet2 The merchants al
citizens along the street want the ma
ket to rem in, the market people theI
selves want it TO remain and thr
fourtbs Of the citizens who attend t
market want it to remain. Then W
should it be removed

In the exhibition hall ut the rooms

cannot doubt the richness and fertility
OF the region that produces them. We
question II any conner from the east,

words, we greatly doubt II any country

Two miles and halffrom the Dalles

on Mill creek, where he has, 1t Is said,
successfully tested the fact that Alfalfa
can be grown on dry upland. We
were informed that IL grew vigorously
there without irrigation, for in fact
irrigation Is impossible. 1t is dry up
land, similar to much of that section,
and while the soil 10 deep andS friable,
with some sand In the loam, the re-
gion 10 of the driest known east of the
Cascades. This grass was cut last
month for hay, and was grown again
ak inches, 50 the experiment proves
that alfalfa will take care al itself on
the driest uplandin In the very drlest
season. Our solution is that the soil
is probably deep aud Is naturally cal
culated to retain moisture; that alfalfa
roots grow deep and SO has ability to
stand drouth. On the train we met
H. p. Isaacs, Esq, of Walla Walla,
who said he had made success of
alfalfa on his place near thatScity. II
will be matter Of the greatest import

England, having mals= the demand

General should be re-established in
full authority, prepared quietly to
stand by it, and, after a conference

on the question how far she may pro-

Agents of the old Pacific railway

Agents of the old Pacific railway
monopoly are unceasing In their ef-
forts to prevent the completion OF the
horthern road. Fortunately, however,
they make no progress. The defeat Of
the endeavor to have the minority re-
port of the judiciary committee, de-
claring the Northern Pacific land
grant forfeited, advanced to place on
the calendar Of the house, was de-
cided victory for the great road Of the
northwest. Stocks Of the company,
both common and preferred, ARE strong.
The former sold recently at 80 and the
latter at 80. Evidently there Is grow
ing confidence that the assaults on the
enterprise will fail. For the whole
northwest there could be no more
hopeful news.

Science is growing more and more
secure, not only through its fresh
achievements, but through the redis-
covery ri old lost arts. The art OF fas-
ing gold and other metals with fine
pottery or glass had been lost for two
thousand years, till 1t was recently re-
discovered by D. Farrell, Of Brooklyn.
II was one Of the embellishments of
ancient Egypt-and when the land Of
the Pharaohs decayed, the secret OF
the fusing Of gold and silver into col
ored mOsaics and vases was lost. The
Venetians, in the sixteenth century,
made an attempt to restore II, but
their work was very imperfect. 1t
was reserved for q Brooklyn man to
umearth q secret which had long lain
buried IN the tomb of Egypt. Scien-
tlfic men have examined his work and
pronounce It genuine. Mr.. Farrell has
been working at the problem of metal
and glass fusion for several years, and
In the course Of his experiments and
failures he is said to have made aev-
eral discoveries of ornamental value
In glass working.

FIGHTING AWAY THIEVES
A Midnight Battle in Berks

The full de tails Of sanguinary bat
tie with gang or at least O dozen de-
termined thieves have been received
here from the small village of Here
fordville, In the eastern section of
Berks, The Rght with guns and pis-
tolls at the dead hour of night lasted
several hours and resulted in the wound
ing of several Of the farmers who were
engaged Id driving off the intruders.
The object of the thieves was to rob
rich farmer named NJ emo d. Clemmer
residing few miles from Claytonville.
The thieves first made their appearance
on Monday night and surrounded the
house. They anne in large wagon,
and it Is suppo sed they are strangers
who were encapped in the hills near
Perryville. Several attempts were made
to enter the house by battering down
the heavy oaken doors, but Mr.. Glenn
mer aroused The Deighbors by sharp
firing at the thieves and they disap-
peared. Apparently they were unarm-
ed, because they did not return the fire
and it Is now supposed that they had
not anticipated such a warm reception.
PREPARING FCR THH TIL IEYRs.
Mr.. Clemmer yesterday was impress
ed with the idea tina the thieves
would make secon d attack and he
succeeded In getting a number ofneigh-
bors in the house early last evening.

parties were fully armed with guns,
pistols and rifles, and were quarteted
on the ground floor and stationed at
the windows in the Upper stories. A
bout eleven o'clock noise was heard
on the outside and two men halted In.
front of the house, apparently wearing
black masks. They were observed re-
connoitering about the front and
few minutes later three more strangers
appeared.
FIGHTING FOR AN HOUK.
Closely following them were three
more and finally four others arrived,
making dozen in all. Their team
must have been tied some distance a.
way, as it was not seen near the
house. The thieves advanced towards
the rear part Of the house, but before
they reached Che house the farmers in
side opened the doors, rushed out and
discharged a volley az the thieves.
Sharp cries of agony and pain followed; !;
but none of them dropped. The thieves
