Tuesday. July 10, 1899:
EASTERN OREGON.
Weather-General rains occurred on the
18th, the amount varying from OPT of an
inch at The Dalles to 0.22 In Morrow
county, OBI in Umatilla county, OIL in
Baker county and O.lS in Harney county.
The mean temperature has been from e6
to rs degrees, which is from two to four
degrees below the average. There has
been an excess of cloudliness. On the
18th brisk winds prevailed north of the
Blue mountains; on the 1lth frost oc-
CURED in Klamath county which injured
gardens.
Crops Harvest Is in progress in all of
the Columbia river valley counties. The
grain Is yielding better than was ex-
pected, though not up to the average.
late grain was greatly benefited by the
rains. The grain crop in 1891, in the
counties east of the Cascades, amounted
to ffye and One-half million bushels, while
this year it is estimated that the crop will
be from % to rs per cent. less. Corn Is
dong very well, though would have bet
ter growth with warmer weather. The
grass is drying up. Potatoes are not
good crop. There has been an average
crop of hay secured and stock growers
feel confident that they will haye plenty
of feed for any kind of winter. There
is nothing especially discouraging in
the wheat prospects of the state, though
they are not as flattering as they were one
year ago, but are more so than they were
in July, 1889.
The streams are falling rapidly; some
wells are dry and water Is being hauled.

did not have the pistol, and while he was
quickly debating within himself the ami
mails came to sharp turn IN the lane and
solved the matter. Mr.. French was pitched
out with he force of catapult and landed
beside the barb wire fence. The hack,
though heavy one, was totally demolished

The Fight Will BE General


HOMESTEAD, July 21.-Hugh Demp-
sey, master workman of district Assem-
bly, No. 8. Knights of Labor, was at the
Amalgamated headquarters this morning
to have talk with O'Donnell. He says
that the report that the Knights of Labor
will take up his case and assist him in
every way is correct, and added that the
fight will no longer be a local one. but
that every great labor organization in the
country shall take part In it. Three hun
dred strikers formerly In the mechanical
department of the Homestead works Sc
cured work this morning laying and
grading the tracks of the Pennsylvania
railroad at Millvale. near Pittsburg. The
railroad company applied for hands in
Homestead, and notice stating that 100
meu were wanted was posted OF the head
quarters of the locked--out mechanics and
laborers. Applications were brisk, and
no difficulty was experienced In securing
the requisite number. Most of the men
were of the poorer class of Poles and
Slavs.

An Extended Boycott

PITTsBUSG, July 21.-Whlle the work
men at Homestead will not admit there is
possibility that they will be defeated,
1t is evident the AmaIgamated Associa-
tion has taken steps to worry the Carne-
gle company, even if it does succeed In
getting non unlou meD enough to
operate the mills, which are now idle on
account of the strike. II the boycott
plan succeeds union workmen everywhere
will refuse to handle iron produced at any
of the Carnegie mills. 1t is said this re-
fusal will even extend to the $1,000,000
library which Carnegie has proposed to
give Pittsburg. Signs are multiplying
that the railroaders are becoming worked
over the Carnegie mill troubles, and a
strike against carrying material to the
mills is possibility. Rumors were cur
rent to-day that the coke workers and
miners employed by the Carnegie com
pany in the coke regions of the state In.
tend quitting work in sympathy with the
Homestead strikers. This, if carried out,
would shut off the supply of coke for the
blast furnaces and compel a suspension.

Some Inquiries.
EIGHT MILE, July 10. 1892.

| EIGHT MILE, July l9. 1892.
| Editor TINES MoUNTAINEER:
Having noticed IN the last issue of your
county court of Wasco county would like,
through the columns of your paper, TO IN
| vite the attention of the Ho onorable County
Court to some of the proceedings OF the
same. Being one OF the Judges or election
of Eight Mile precinct would like to know
by what authority the Honorable County
Court h s of not allowing some precincts
the money rightly due them. l speak tor
Eight Mile precinct. although there are
others in the same fix. Wasco county al.
lows the judges and clerks of Eight Mile
precinct at least one and half days work
each. We find by the list of expenditures
that we are allowed but one day each, while
some other precints are allowed two. We
would call the Honorable Courts attention
to Section 20 OIL the election laws of Ore
gon, where you read, "There shall be al
lowed bv the county court of each county
to he several judges and clerks So per day
while holding elections" Now. we sup.
pose, the scheme by which the difference is
made is based on the number of votes st;
but we fail to find in the election laws
where the judges and clerks shall be paid
according TO the number of votes cast in
each precinct. Our days work commenced
at o'clock In the morning and ended at 6
in the evening; THAT Is the time the polls
closed There was not a pre- met in the
county that their work was done then, as
your Honor are well aware. We, of Eight
Mile precinct, worked till midnight before
we got through, and then some of us had to
go seven miles before getting home through
mud and heavy rain, while your town
precincts could tumble into bed as soon as
they got through. We had other incon-
veniences, such as caring for our horses and |
bringing feed for them, while your town
precincts did not need them. We must
acknowledge you have been liberal enough |
with some of the precincts, one at least, Ia |
furnishing them with two square meals. |
while the balance could 90 hungry.
We trust your Honor will take liberal |
view of the matter and acknowledge the |
mistake, and reply.
