THE weather wise assert that frost

west In a southeasterly direction over
the country. The cold snap will how.
ever come too lateto materially affect the
crops, most of which have been already
gathered and housed. The prognostica
tion will therefore not have the effect
that would have been given it in mid.
summer, when frost would have played
frightful havoc with the productions OF
the soil. 1t would be well, however, fol
those farmers who are looking forward
to a further spell of warm weather to re
member this warning of the weather
prophets, and be prepared against the
frost and cold that cannot be much
longer postponed.

WHEN the members of the Legisla.
ture recOnvene in Harrisburg next
week, the first thing the Democrats OF
the House should do is TO- determine
whether or not they propose to impress
their party and the people Of the state
generally with confidence in the Sinceri
ty of the position they have assumed
upon the appOrtionment question, aud
the continuance of the extra session. In
order to do this It will be necessary for
them to take immediate measures to
secure the constant attendance Of the
members of that body and more fre
quent as well rs better attended sgs
sions. Upon the last IOl call of the House
on Friday there were more aOsentccs
recorded than were members voting on

sentees noted and the Democratic news
papers Of the state should cOnSpCuOusly
print their names day after day. But the
responsibility is not all theirs. 1t is
shared equally by those who, remaining
at Harrisburg, yet fail to enforce the
processes Of that body to secure the at
tendance of their associates. Even the
most steadGast friends of the policy OF the
Legislature remaining in session admit
that the House had far better consent TO
immediate adjournment than present the
spectacle, which has been seen almost
uninterruptedly for the past six weeks,
Of having less than a constitutional ma
jority of Democrats present at its ses-
sons. The prayers of the chaplain
which constitute the main part Of the
daily business, may be pleasant and
profitable, but they are not enough tC
justify the continuance of the session.
THE war cloud that was only a tiny
speck on the European horizon month
ago, has become somewhat larger thar
the typical mans hand at the present
time, and the greater portion of Europe
may be eventually darkened by its
shadow. The Franco Chinese question
IS still smouldering volcano which
may become active at any moment, and
so much fear is felt lest this untoward
result may take place, that England has
been called upon to act as umpire fOT
the disagreeing principals. The conta.
gion OF war is abroad and the threatened
rupture between France and China has
caused initiatory revolutionary uprisings
in Bulgaria, ,Servia and Spain. The Unltet
States may we'll ieliCitate itself that il

ity may at all times be threatened by th,
troubles of warning nelghbors. Perhap

MAYOR KING, of Philadelphia, is right
in his purpose to close every pool room in
that city, rs they are nothing more nor
less than vonocred gambling dons, which

the additional aid OF the laws sanction,

Extensive Eop Interests.

An exchange says: A short time ago we
stated that an expert searcher had been
looking up the title to the property in the
forks of the Santiam and the Willamette;
that 1000 acres would be purchased and set
out for a hop yard. Since then desds from
different owners of property in that place
have been made out to Robert Bell, of Port
land and the purchase price handed over. The
price per acre ranges from ten to forty dol
lars. Instead of 1000 acres, 2leO acres will
be purchased, making this one OF the largest
hop yards in the northwest. Already some
of the hops have been set. It is said that
this neck of land is peculiarly fitted for hop
raising on account of its moist condition.

Hops.


During the last week says the Salem
Statesman, the firm of Williams & England,
of this city, have sold two farms, one of
over 100 acres, belonging to Mr.. David
Delaney, to Mr.. J. r. Dickinson; the other
was the farm of F. E. Payne, to Mr.. J. W.
Hodson. The price paid in both cases was
$40 Fer acre cash. Mr.. Dickinson is from
the hop yards of Puyallup Valley, W. T.,
and it is his intention to plant 100 acres to
hops. Being practical hop growsr he
knows whereof he speaks, and he says that
the lands he has bought are equal to the
best for hop culture, and he il of the opin-
ion that no better country can be found,
and that the development of this resource
is yet in it's infancy. Mr.. Hodson will also
plant large acreage in hops. 1t would
therefore appear that the hop "boom' has
struck Marion county as well as Lane
