SAN FRANeIsco, Aug. 12.-The opera
tions of the rival clipper line of ships
doing business between here and New
York have led to large increase in
freight shipments both east bound and
west bound. Yesterday the ship John
Mcdonald cleared with over 900 900
pounds Of wine. canned goods, dried
fruit and other merchandise, making
the fourth vessel for that port in about
six weeks. Three vessels, the Tam o.
Shanter, NJ. P. Grace and Florence, are
in port, ready for additional cargoes.
Under the rivalry of two principal COM
peting lines seaboard rates have gone
down, and overland railroad rates on
similar classes of goods are marked for
big reduction. The east bound rate of
$3.50 per ton on barley, canned goods,
ETC., via Cape Horn, is the lowest rate
ever quoted for through shipments and
represents about IS per ton for all classes.

en- route from New York at practically

FOf the number of vessels loading or on
tire way, J. w. Grace & Co., have three,
Balfour. Guthrie & Co., two, the John
Lock Mercantile company two, and the
Sutton and California line the others.
With a cut of about one-third in rates,
the merchants feel disposed to patronize
the ship owners rather than the rail-
roads. 1t became known late yesterday
that the traffic association and a number
of prominent merchants had subscribed
$50, GOO to guarantee one of the Clipper
lines against any probable loss conse-
quent on low rates by overland freight
lines.

PoRTLASD. Aug. 13.--A nearly fatal
accident occurred to John Olson. an en-
ploye OF the Pacific bridge company at
Oregon City. yesterday, while he and
Samuel Bewen were at work repairing
the suspension bridge, upon WHICH are
strung the electric wires of the William
cite falls electric light company. Olson
first received slight shock through an
iron wrench, after which, to show that
he could stand the shock, he grabbed
the wire with his bare hand, and but for
the close proximity of Bowen, who seized
and pulled him off, he would have been
killed. AS it is, he has a terribly burned
hand, and an ugly wound in the arm
where the bolt left him, and he win not
recover for some time. The wires from
which he received the shock were carry
ing 1000 volts, and the men had been
warned of the danger.

The spokane view.


Review. But the mistakes of the
Olympia convention make all the more
obligatory the duty of the rank and file
of the republican party. Many battle
has been won by the gallantry and in
telligence of the privates where the work
of the ofhcerswas faulty. The campaign
now upon the state must be classed with
these. There are various potential rea-
sons why republican success is particu-
larly desired this year. Mr.. McGraw is
immeasurably superior to the man who
is almost certain to benominated by the
democrats for governor. He is not a
demagogue; he has keen, commands
ing intellect; he would make a dignified,
able governor. Lewis is blatant bag
of wind, with diffusive intellect, and
passion for the sensational. Republican
success is especially desired this year
because there are signs of social disturb
ance and political crisis; and in such
times the republican party ought to
have complete control of the state and
nation.

Antelope shade Trees.

Herald. There is one thing about the
Antelope country that gives it fine ap-
pearance at first sight, and which shows
the enterprise, taste and good judgment
of our citizens. That is the shade trees,
so generally planted by everybody.
These poplar trees can be procured
very easily over on the John Day or
elsewhere within distance of ten
miles from here, and they grow very
rapidly, so that if one sets out small
tree he may expect to have a lovely, tall
shade tree in two or three years time.
If a man anticipates selling his prop
erty, the very first thing he wants to do
is to set out trees and make the place
look homelike and inviting. This will
enhance his property ten times more
than anything else he could do. In
our rch soil here all the attention they
require ia a little watering two or three
times week until they get start.

Glacier Ice.

Glacier. Capt. H. G. Coe, ]. B. Hunt
and C. L. Gilbert, came to the conclu-
sion last Saturday that they wanted
some ice, and as there was none nearer
than Mt. Hood, Capt. Coe hitehed up
four horses, and they all started for the
glacier Sunday evening, camping at the
bridge and reaching the glacier at 10 a.
M, Monday They cut out 1 500 pounds
of clear solid ice, packed it quarter of
a mile on their horses, and reached town
Monday Morning. The ice is clear, and
exceedingly firm, having been submit
ted to thousands of tons pressure, and
for this reason is said to last nearly
twice as long as the common everyday
article. They will get another load to-
day. With railroad to within seven or
eight miles of the glacier, the ice busi-
ness would be profitable.

A WonderfuI cave.

Spokane Chronicle. a recent visitor
to the petrifed moss cave on Lake Pend
d'Oreille thus describes it: 1.-THE en-
trance was not more than fifty yards
from the lake, though situated at an
elevation of about 100 feet above it in
the side of q cliff, which rose abruptly
to the height of about 5000 feet. The
passage to the natural curiosities was
through the roots of huge cedar trees.
After entering the cave and lighting our
tapers we we're struck with admiration
at the wonderful formations which the
lime water, trickling through the roof
for countless ages had effected. Pools
of ice-cold water impregnated with
lime lay at our feet in basins, caused by
the continual drippings from above, and
surrounded by moss, which had been
petrifed by the properties of the water"

crops About Antelope.

Herald. Some people from distance
contend that this inland country will
never amount to anything for raising
hay and grain. We can truthfully as
sert that nowhere in Oregon can larger
yields of hay and grain be produced
than rightaup here in the Antelope Sec
ton. This season Uncle Bill and Alf
Kelsay put up eight tons of hay off one
and one-quarter acres of land. Now If
anyone can beat this, for dry season.

A Simple Problem.

The value of baking powder is in the leaven-
ing gas it contains. If one brand is stronger
than another, it is worth more per pound,
because it goes further in baking.
Royal Baking Powder has been determined
by the official chenlicaI tests to be 27 per cent
greater in leavening strength than any other
brand It's actual value to the consumer IS
therefore Fl per cent greater than the Others
This is equal to I31z cents per pound
If, therefore, other powders are forced upon
you, see that the charge for them is I3H cents
per pound less than the price of the Royal.
