Mebbe there wosent any lies tole, but
the truth was stretched so fur you couldn't
tell the difrence. An would like tn make
a fue corrections ON what hes bin printed.
In the fust place there was beer barl

He sed he took no part on either side.
He sed it was effecting the skule, that
three or fore families he'd taken their chill
dren away. all hev tn say tn thet Is thet
it amt true. Not scholar hes left. He
also sed the skule was under the ospices
oy the Methodist church which is another
oy the same. The skule is strictly non
sectarian. The principal is Q. P, three
other teachers ar Presbiterions an one
Methodist.
Nobody don't hev no club that Prof.

Sum people will strane at gate an swal-

sure but if sum people from other places
would stay at home an mine there own bis

there wouldent hev bin no riot if one man

CROP BrLLETIN.
CROP BULLETIN.
Prospects are Excellent for an Album
dant Harvest in Both the Valley
and Eastern Oregon.

In the Willamette valley all vege-
tatIon has had excellent growth
during the week. The weather con
ditions we're favorable to all crops.
Winter wheat never promised bet
ter, in Yamhill county it began
heading on 22d. Early sown spring
grain is 10 inches high. At Lang
lois, Curry county, rye is seven feet
high and heading. Potato acreage
increased in Washington and Clack.
amas counties. In these counties
and in Yamhill the number of hop
yards have also been increased and
lice are apparent. Hay crop will be
unusually large, especially in Col
umbia county. Considerable buck,
wheat has been sown in ClacKamas
The prune crop has been somewhat
blighted and not more than an
average yield is expected, Cherries
have been somewhat injured by
blight and frost. Peach trees are
affected with blight In sections of
Benton county. Strawberries are
ripening rapidly in most sections.
Jackson, Josephine and Douglas
counties have excellent prospects for
grain and fruit. The surface soil is
becoming dusty and clay soils hard.
Showers would lie welcome and
beneficial. The week closes with
continued excellent crop prospects.
In Eastern Oregon tall and early
sown wheat continues to thrive and
do well. In sections it is filling.
Late sown spring gram Is generally
poor, much of it failed to germinate
on account OF lack of moisture. The
continued relatively cool tempera-
ture has been of great benefit to the
wheat crop. Strawberries are ripen-
ing rapidly in Wasco county. Veg
etables are plentiful in many sec
tions. Fruit trees are thriving and
doing well. Rain is badly needed,
though the week closes with pros
poets for more than an average
wheat crop. Wool is being hauled
to warehouses and many head OF
cattle are being shipped. The grass
is quite good and cattle are gener-
ally in very good condition. Good
general showers within ten days
will increase wheat outputs fully 20
| per cent.

ATTEMPT TO BURNsALINAs.
SALINAS, May PA most das-
tardly attempt was made Saturday
night to fire this town, and no less
than four buildings, in different
parts Of the town, were set on fire
simultaneously. In every case but
little progress was made, as each fire
was discovered before il had gained
much headway. Four joints or 200
feet Of hose, was 50 badly mutilated
as to be entirely useless. Whether
this was done before the alarms, or
after it was unreeled, cannot be
ascertained. One joint was cut
almost in two, aud had the appear
ance Of having been cut with an AK
Others were not 80 badly damaged
but still enough to make them use
less. A special meeting Of both the
common council aud the board OF
delegates OF the fire department was
/ held last evening aud reward offered
for such information as will lead to
the Apprehension of the guilty
parties. Considerable excitement
existed during the day, and If the
perpetrators are discovered it will
