by the failure of the doctors to help me, and be-
ing urged to use Hunts Remedy by friend who
had tested its merits, although reluctant to try
patent medicine, was finally induced to try the
Remedy, and procured two bottles of 1t, and
commenced taking it faithfully according to the

Tuesday afternoon one Of the en-
ployees in Cannon's saw mill named
Nicodemus met with a painful acci-
dent, which might have been far
more, serious. While feeding shin
giles into the edger in some manner
the fingers OF his left hand were
caught in the knives. The little
finger was cut off at the second Joint,
while the third finger had the flesh
shaved down to the bone and the
nail Of the second finger nearly taken
of. DIR. J. NJ. Morgan dressed the
injuries and Mr.. n. is doing as well
as he could expect. The wounds
were nasty ones, 1.-THE has ever rea-

the Mississippi and its tributaries to
the mills of Minneapolis. The wheat
region OF Eastern Washington is
destitute of timber, and Spokane
Falls is its natural supply-point for
lumber for building and fencing.
The merit of the water-power does
not consist only in the fact that there
are two falls and a long rapid; the
river is divided by large island
which doubles the extent Of shore
front available for mills. 1t is no
exaggeratiOn to say that fifty mill
could find good sites and ample
power. As the rich regions Of East
ern Washington became populOus
and largely productive, this town
must become a great milling and
manufacturing centre. Apart from
its swift, green river and foaming
cataracts, it has an admirable situa-
tiOn on a high, grIvelly plateau
forest on its southern flank, and to
the nOrthward green prairies stretch
ing away to a blue hOrizOn-walI of
rugged mountains. The town has
added one-half to its population dur

mill and five substantial brick busi-
ness buildings are now in prOgtess of

Commend US to the San Francisco

If there is daily anywhere that can
show more life and vim when an ex-
traordiRary occasion demands it.
Just now the attention of the people
Of California, and in fact that of a
good portion of the Union, is centered
upon San Francisco as the scene of
the Knights Templar eonclave, and
IN order to meet the requirements Of
the hour, the Chronicle issued a six
teen page edition last Sunday, con-
tanning, besides the news of the
world, an exhaustive history of the

There is no use trying to disguise
facts, Spokane Falls is spreading out

addition is that Of a new livery

Hardly day passes but we receive
information from actual farmers to
the effect that the grain crop of this
county is not total failure, notwith-
standing the statement recently
made by person named PayIAI AIiu
the OregORidR. The REVIEW, nor
no other paper in the county so far
as we know, has ever intimated, di-
rectly or indirectly, that the yield
this year would either be dnprece-
dented in extent, or above the aver
age, and when so charged the alleger
shoulders n very grave RESPONSE
bility. The reports we publish come
tou from experienced farmers, men
whose words are to be relied upon,
and Of this testimony we could pile
up enough
"To DER top old Pellon, or the skylsh head
or blue olympus"
From J. l.. Steadman, of Marshall,
we learn that in that vicinity the
grain is very short, yet from every
indication it promises to go over half
a crop. The farmers theTeabOuts are
just ready to thrash, and when that
is done they will be prepared to say
exactly what the result Of the years
labor amounts to. A. ii. BrickelL,
Of PeOne Prairie, gives his eXper.
ience at grain growing this season,
which is by no means disCOuraging.
"A 50-acre tract Of spring wheat will
average him IS bushels to the acre,
his oats run from 30 to IS, and the
harley is good. Now these state.
mcnts, coming from men farming in
opposite directions from the Falls,
shows that the crops are by nOmeans
a failure, which is really surprising
when we take into account the fear.
full difficulties that met the granger
in the shape Of weather this season.
There is nothing in this to feel ex-
uberant over, nor to make the farm
ers exhibit bOisterOus happiness, vet
it is a result for cOngratulatiOn and
something the tiller Of the soil may
honestly boast Of. A land that will
produce even a half a crop under the
drawbacks Of drought equal to that
we have experienced is a pretty good
country after all.
