The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1891-02-27

The astuteness of the typical Philadel-
phia lawyer, once so we'll known IS to
become proverbial, has been equalled
only by that of the modern journalist.
Yet either of these individuals, accord
.ue to the testimony of Julian Ralph,
would have been puzzled great many
times had they joined him in recent at
tempt to learn the truth about tue SNUG
Cling of Chinese into our country across
the Canadian border. Mr. Ralph was
not, however, entirely baffied in his ef-
forts to discover "The Chinese Leak"
In a paper on this subject, to appear In
the March number of Harper's Magazine
ne describes the results Of his investigs-
tons, and relates many curious facts re-
uarding the influx of Chinamen into
British Columbia and thence into the
United States. A number OF character
is,ic illustrations by Frederic Remington
will add to the value Of this interesting
article.

those in the party were sent away
because of the excited condition in
the settlements, and said that their

Hop Lice in the willamette.

The Salem Journal. says that Ed c..
Harran has shown that journal hop
leaves from the Beardsley yards at
Eola thatS tSwere literally covered with
lice, and it is certain that these Eola
yards, about as large as any in the
state, are badly infested, and not liable
to have half crop unless spraying can
check the pest. All delusions about
there being no danger to the crop are
pernicious. The farmers better realize
that their crop is liable to be destroyed.
and go to spraying to save it. The fact
is, all talk of no possibility of injury
from hop lice is for the purpose of taking
down prices, and the outlook in the
eyes of some of our best posted hop men
is that there may not be half crop.

DIAMOND FLOUR MILLS.

"A short Description OF Valuable Con-
x cern. r
The city of Spokane is just now busily
engaged IN raising bonus OF $50, 900 to,
give to, partiesswho will establish mill
with an output OF 200 barrels of -four
per day. The Dalles is more fortunate.
1t did not have to pay dollars subsidy
toward the putting of the Diamond
Roller Mills in operation, and.no one in
stitution in the city has done more to
put money in circulation and advance
values than these same mills. The con-
cern is the property of Mr.. A. H. Cur
tiss, q wide-awake, energetic and thor
ough business man, and, one who has
made complete success in his line of
business, in this city,
The mills are located in the east end
of town, and occupy a frontage of so feet
width with depth of 100. The build
ing is four stories high and is built of
corrugated iron. 1t is handsome and
stately structure and the inside arrange
ments are all that could be desired for
the economical conduct of the business.
The mills have a capacity of 100 bar
rels per day, but by a little extra crowd
ing l25 barrels can be put out. There
are seven sets OF rollers in use, all of the
p. p. Allis pattern and manufacture.
The miller in charge is Mr.. VIM. IL.
Groat. He is thorough master of his
business, and never lets the Diamond
grade of -four fall below it's high stan
dard of excellence. Chris Paulsen is the
-four packer, and James Snipes is the
esta blishment.
The machinery is driven by 20 horse
power Corliss engine, which is managed
by Mr.. Z. w. Bunker with Clarence
Bunker as assistant. The engine is a
fine one, and does it's work very easily.
Last year Mr.. Curtiss purchased 49,
600 bushels of wheat, which was ground
/ into -four at his mills. The wheat was
all raised in this vicinity, a good deal of
it, however, coming from Klickitat
county, as Mr.. Curtiss gave free ferriage
across the Columbia to all farmers who
! sold their wheat to him. Heshas not de-
cided whether he will do the same this
fall in regard to the wheat of our neigh
bors over the brook, but will make the
make the announcement later if he de-
! cides so to do.
The flour turned out by the Diamond
Roller Mills is of a superior grade, and
in Portland, where much of it is shipped,
is regarded as superior bakers flour.
These mills are q home institution,
spending a large amount of money here
| every year for wheat and in the pay
ment of was es, and should receive the
united patronage of the people of The
Dalles and vicinity SO as to enable the
concern to keep in operation the year
through, and we hope to be able to re-
cord from time to time that Mr.-Curtiss
is receiving patronage commensurate
with the money he has invested in this
much-needed establishment.
