sion. whore he spent eight years in teaching
at the college and in making missionary
tours through the surrounding country.
The Jealous friar first became Identified
with California in 1867 in the June of which
year he was placed at the head of the Fran
ciscans, who took charge Of the sixteen
missions in Lower California, which till
then had been managed by the Jesuit
fathers. year later he received lnstruc-
tions from his superior to establish three
missions in Upper California, but it took
nearly twelyemonth more to mature the
plans and get every thing in readiness for
the expedition. 1t was not until April. 1863,
therefore, that he was able to start with a
land force, while another part of the expe-
dition proceeded by sea in search Of the
port of San Diego.
Father Junipero, after journeying fifty
days bv land, rested awhile at SanFernando
de Villaoata, where he established a mis-
sion, to facilitate Intercourse with San
Diego. After a three days rest the long
tramp was again taken up, and at the end
of forty-six days march San Diego was
reached the naval expedition being found
at anchor waiting their arrival.
The apostle lost no time in founding a
mission and in sending out fresh expedi-
tions to discover Monteiev. The results of
these efforts are too we'll known to particu-
larize here. Missions and -presidios sprane
up with wonderful rapidity. the country
was explored. and the Importance of tho
discoveries thus made known to the world
were as great and useful from a secular
standpoint as the christianizing of the saw
age WAS from religious view.
After fourteen years of apostolic labors
Father Junipero, borne down by age and
labor, gave up his spirit in the mission of
San Carlos de Monterey. His DEATH which
took place on the afternoon of Aug. %, 1884,
gave rise to great popular commotion, and
not only the Spanish residents, but the In
dians, cried like children when the fact be
came known. He was bu led next day with
military and ecclesiastical honors, being
laid to rest within the sanctuary, before the
altar OF Our Lady Of Dolors, while minute
guns kept time with the requiem. and a gen
erals salute was fred when the tomb closed
upon ,ths remains.

Thousands of acres of grass land

land capable of producing five
tons of hay to the acre in aseason;
hay that is ''hay," not straw.
"Why ,then," it may be asked, sis
not this land sown in hay instead
of bringing straw at so many
profits so far2" Because there is
no road from Astoria and conse-
quently no ind to raise
hay. That's why. The matter
needs no extended comment, but
it reflects on our present
economic conditions.-Astorian.
If farmers of California can
ship straw nearly 1000 miles pay
several commissions at a profit,
why can't the farmers of the Will

stead of burning it and furnish the
same market at less cost and
make much greater profit? Straw
is considered worthless by the
average farmer of this valley.

TORTURING ECZEMA!
Editor Iowa Plain Dealer Cured of In
sufferable Itching and Pain by the
Cuticura Remedies.
No Less Than Five Physicians Consulted.
Their Combined Wismom Followed
Without Benefit.

I am sixty-six years old. In August,
1889, was troubled with the peculiar skin
disease to which people of my age are SUBJ
ject, known among medical men as eczema.
Its first appearance was near the ankles.
1t rapidly extended over the lower extremi-
ties until my legs were nearly one raw sore;
from legs the trouble extended across the
hips, shoulders and the entire length of the
arms, the legs and arms greatly swollen
with an itching, burning pain, without ces
sation. Although the best medical advice
attainable was employed, no less than five
physicians of the place being consulted and
the prescriptions being the result of their
combined wisdom, the disease, though ap
parently checked, would recur in few days
as bad as ever; during its progress my
weight fell away about twenty-tiv pounds.
As an experiment began the use of CUT1-
cURA. following the simple and plain in
structions given with the REMEDIES, and in
four weeks found myself well, with skin
soft and natural in color. the itching and
pain entirely relieved. w. r. MEAD,

BULLY for Oregon again! The
following is from the last Sundays
New York Herald: s'The state of
Kentucky has heretofore maintain
ed a monopoly of the Mammoth
Cave business. The big hole IN
the ground which is her pride and
boast has acted as a bluff to in
solent competition in that indus
try. A few upstart and insignifi-
cant cavities in other parts of the
country have put on airs and
largely advertised their preten-
sions, but when compared with the
Kentucky hole they proved to be
no more than woodchuck burrows
and have skunk away like sneak
thief to hide their littleness in OBJ
scurity. But when the great and
fourishing state of Oregon comes
to the front and tells us that she
has cave which will startle the
imagination of science and force
Kentucky to pale her Intellectual
fires we have premonition that
the Mammoth must at last sur.
render its glories. The Pacific
coast deals only in the biggest
things in creation. 1t has trees so
high that you have to look twice
before you can see the top
branches which are hobnobbing
with the clouds. Its cherries are
as large as pippins, its grapes are
so luscious that you wish your
throat were half a mile long, and
everything it produces is the best
on the planet. The new cave
which has just been discovered
fairly thrills the soul with wonder.
You enter it through a narrow
fissure in a limestone rock. After
wandering several miles you are
ushered into a series of chambers,
the dazzling beauty of whose stall
actites make you think of the
wonders of fairy land. There are
also giant pillars, milk white, which
uphold the roof, and streams ot
crystal water to make rlppling

The following is an excerpt from
last Sundays New York Herald S
Wall street article: '.The decrease
of $923,000 in the surplus reserve
of city banks, shown by yester-
days statement, was expected and
made virtually no impression.
Large" shipments of currency to
the West-the first this season.
have been made during the past
few days to- assist in moving wheat
which is now coming forward
freely. Over two million bushels
have been taken this week for
shipment from Atlantic and Gulf
ports at dates running from next
week to the end of September
Our city banks still hold an abun-
dant surplus and money remains
very easy for any period short of
six months. The possibility of
congress making some legislative
blunder touching the silver coin
age renders lenders chary of max
ing loans to extend beyond the
period when the Washington leg
islators shall have assembled.
Meanwhile a bullish feeling is be-
ing inspired by the sharp reduc-
t,on in sterling exchange, the ces-
sation of gold exports and the
glowing prospects Of the crop in
the light of the government re-
port showing the acreage and con-
dltion of cotton and cereals on
July /. Taking this as a basis,
the probable yield of winter wheat
is estiinated at 100000 bush

THESE, MfDSUMNER DAYS.
These be the summer days

These be the summer days OF
natures effulgent fruitage, when
all things are ripened, or are
ripening for the annual harvest
The wheat fields are yellowing in
rich glory, the orchards are hung
thickly with thier luscious and
beautiful fruitage, the meadows
are thickly covered with ripe
grasses or strewn thickly with new
mown hay. The air is musical
with the voices of myriads of birds
and insects; through the CLASSY
glades the red deer wanders; in the
brook the trout leap along the
rifles or lazily lie against the
banks in the deep pools. The sky
is azure, the earth emerald, the air
fragrant ozone. 1t is world of
natural wealth and beauty, of in.
finite variety and opportu nifty, of
wonders innumerable and glories
indescribable.
The nights, too-such a night
as this .full-mooned, midsummer
Saturday night will be, if
clear-are scarcely less respond
ent and inviting than the days, are
even somewhat more comfortable
in temperature. In that respect,
though, our west mountain Oregon
midsummer day or night is far
more enjoyable than that of almost
auy portion of our country, though
warm, and what people here some
times, in their thoughtlessness and
slight discomfort, term hot, is cool
comfort compared with the scorch-
ing heat of other parts of the land.
The spring gradually deepens into
a mild summer; the summer as
gradually fades into autumn, fol
lowed by a winter that is scarcely
more than a moist, mild fall or
spring.
These other seasons, though
equable and easy to live through,
are comparatively colorless,
though; it is the bloom, the blush,
the brightness of these midsum-
mer scenes that make the season
noticeable and admirable. The
midsummer days are a time of
both work and play, of pushing,
brushing business; but also of holi-
days or for a little time or with
all through Of recreation and

They will rapidly pass by and the
glory Of another Oregon summer
will have departed.-Telegram.

GRAIN IN EUROPE.

An interesting article has been
recently published by the Jour
nal des Economistes of France, in
regard to the market price of grain
in the principal countries of Eu.
rope, in which it is shown by care
fully compiled statistics that the
price of wheat has been falling
ever since 1860, until now bush
ell of wheat, which at that time
was worth $1.60 in England. is
now worth only $1.13. Keeping
pace with this decline in price is
a tendency toward the equalization
of prices in all countries, but this
has been checked to a large extent
by protective tariffs for the benefit
of agriculturalists. The effect of
these tariffs is shown by the fact
that while in England wheat in
1860 was worth $1.6O, in Germany
$1.38 and in France $1.56, now
that it has fallen in England to
$1.13, it is worth $1.27 in Germany
and $1.3S in France. The domin-
ant factor in the European wheat
market is Russia, whe re from 1S-
so to 1890 the price has declined
from 9S to 80 cents a bushel. 1t
is to guard against Russian COM
petition principally that the Ger
man grain tariff is laid. A close
ly studied estimate as to the cost
of production of grain per acre
shows that the cost in Germany is
four times as great as in Russia,
while the yield is only three times
as large. AS a consequence, if
Germany did not guard her grain
growers in some way, her agricul-
ture would have to be abandoned
as an improbable industry. These
statistics enable us to understand
better the attitued of the German
government in refusing to lower
the grain duties in the present
crisis, which has caused SO much
distress among the laboring classes
by the rise in the price of bread.
1t is doubtless very bad that bread
should be high, but it seems to be
certain that any attempt to make
it cheaper by admitting grain free
would result so disastrous to the
whole agricultural population that
the result would be equivalent to
jumping from the frying pan into
the fire.--San Jose Mercury.
