RETROSPECTIVE VIEWS.
What the Year Has Brought Forth Of
Good Things.
Canyon COunty's Marvellous Products.
Berries, Fruits, Vegetables, Grasses
and Cereals-A Seasons Magnificent
Yield.

Although the spring was not
promising to vegetable growth on
account of its uncommon back
wardness, yet in looking over the
list Of products there is every reason
for congratuIation. Canyon county
put garden truck on the market
early in April. In May came
strawberries, currants and rasp-
berry of the finest quality. In
June came the later vegetables,
such as new potatoes, green peas,
cabbage, ETC., and some of the
larger fruits. In July came early
apples and continuation of berries
and vegetables. In August, almost
all kinds of fruits of the summer
order were plentiful including
melons, grapes, apricots etc. In
September the country was literally
flooded with every fruit the heart
or appetite could desire. The corn
and wheat crops have been fair:
root crops are excellent and grasses
of the clover specie have yielded
two and three successive harvests.
Looking over the whole matter and
considering the generally untoward
season, Canyon county has faith
fully maintained its reputation as
the best producing section in the
west. Now the winter season
is approaching and we very
much fear that most of the
other counties will outshine
us. They will probably utterly
eclipse our snow and ice crops.
Those are productions for which
we can never become notorious.
We sincerely advise all those who
seek to engage in the cultivation Of
! snow and ice and frigid climate tc
90 elsewhere. These beautiful
warm days tell US that this is M
country for such enterprises. Bu'
when spring comes apace and
strawberries are in order, Canyon
county will be strictly in it will
the tropics. Many things hav'
conspired'to discourage our peopl'
I 10 the last few months, but none o
them can be laid at the door o
n nature. The soil has yielded gen
erously and none of the natura
Flaws have been seriously upset
The promise for the future is brigh
Rna encouraging. A country witt
uch natural resources as this has
bound eventually to support
rosperous people. Plenty of ricl
& 9oil, mild climate and pure water
Nothing more need be looked 70
i tanywhere.

THE SENATE.

While the situation has been trying,
and the endless stream OF talk in the sem
ate aggravating, we have not felt called
upon to join in the wholesale dcnuncia-
tons that have been generally INDUCED
in. TASTY legislation is as apt to be pro-
ductive OF bad results as no legislation,
and although the remedy may seem plain
and the final result be the same, yet by
the slower method the sentiment OF the
people is given time to crystalize into a
more general acquiesence, and the result
not SO soon questioned or undertaken 70
be overthrown, and is therefore more apt
to become permanent law.
The indications are that this policy has
about accomplished the desired result ;
that the silver men finding the sentiment
against them have about talked them
selves out, and will consent to the putting
OF the question. If they do not we have
no doubt the vice president will rise to
the occasion and, deaf and blind to the
tactics OF the filibusterers, order the call
ing of the roll just as Samuel j Randall
did in the house during the memorable
Hayes-Tilden contest. Mr.. Stevenson has
been severely criticised for not taking this
step weeks ago, and has been accused OF
unwilllngness to do So alleging that he
did not desire repeal, but We believe him
to be too good democrat not to support
the administration and give the majority
an opportunity to rule.

THE YUKON COUNTRY.

Much has been said and written the
last few years about the great Yukon
river, in Alaska, and wonderful stories
have been told OF the rich deposits Of
gold there. 1t is wonderful stream,
from lake Bennett to the ocean it is $500
miles, and the river is navigable by steam
boats, and several OF its tributaries are
also navigabc for from 200 to 800 miles.
The fucon is two miles 200 miles from
its mouth, and gradually widcns until at
the mouth it is So miles wide. 1t is full
of islands, and the mouth is really six
mouths with large islands between.
Later reports, however, dscredit the
stories OF there being much gold, and
the shortness OF the season makes it i'm
practicable to mine what little there is
The Victoria Times has long article on
this subject, deriving its information from
J. W. Seaman, who left that place last
April for the Yukon gold fields The
mining season lasts only about two
months, and sometimes but few days,
when it freezes up tight. The summer
days, or day for it is practically one long
day, are bright and pleasant; while the
winter is Of course the reverse, and the
thermometer goes down to 20 degrees be-
low zero. Provisions are naturally very
high, as but little can be raised Flour is
$l5 hundred, bacon 40 cents pound,
Ic;n 4 4
potatoes so cents pound. These prices
only obtain on account Of the rivalry be-
tween two companies. There is plenty
OF meat, moose, carboo and other game
being found in abundance.
This account is corroborated by Mr.. \.
f.. Gagner, Of this city, who spent three
years there, most OF the time at Nulata,
where there is French-Canadan mis-
sion, and where he helped in constructing
some Of the buildings. lie recently re-
ceived a letter from Rev. Father A. Ra-
garn, the priest in charge, telling OF the
progress they are making at the mission.
They are building a new schoo! down at
Cazariskc, where there are eleven sisters
OF st. Anne de Bcauprc, and where they
have raised 1l5 bushels OF potatoes, be-
sides cabbage, carrots, peas, ETC., over
which they seem quite clated. The letter
speaks Of one Trembly who claims to
have made $4,000 in the mines, but Mr..
Gagner knows the man to be unreliable,
and says more gold can be obtained by
the proper cultivation OF the soil in the
valleys around Aberdeen than by all the
digging that can be done in the Yukon
country. 1t may be q pleasant place to
spend few weeks in the summer, but no
place for gold

The rapid progress which has been
made in popular education ON the silver
question during the last four months has
had several pointed illustrations, but
none more significant than the action OF
the State Farmers Alliance of Iowa in
voting down all resolutions III favor OF
free silver by large majorities, and in de.
claring for sound and stable money.
Heretofore the Farmers Alliance in Iowa,
as in all other states has been committed
to the free silver illusion. The radical
change OF sentiment which it has under
gone as the result OF the events and dis.
cussons OF the last few months, when
taken in connection with the similar re-
markablc change of front by the Demo-
cratic party OF the neighboring state OF
Nebraska, is full OF portentious meaning
for the demagogues in the senate who are

City Attorney Mckinlay reported as to
the various matters referred to him. lie
had been unable to make the settlement
Wit. Mr.. West, as the warrant held by
West was greater than the amount Of his
taxes. and it was therefore ordered that
two warrants he issued for the one in
such amounts as would effect the pay
ment OF the taxes.
He also reported that the cost of col
Letting the balance due on special assess
mcnts on Pine street sidewalk, the alley
in block SO, and q street in South Aber-
deem, by assessment would about equal
the amounts due, and recommended the
taking up OF any warrants outstanding
against such special assessments, and the
issuance OF warrants on the general street
fund in lieu thereof. This provoked quite
q discussion; Hood contcnding that it
would set a bad precedent, and that if the
people found they were not going to be
forced to pay, these taxes would never be
paid, and wanted to know whether some
scheme could not be devised whereby the
holders Of these warrants could be in
duced to accept notes OF the property
owners for them, and thereby save the
cost OF rc-asscssing and also the setting OF
the precedent; he thought the people
were wiling to pay these taxes ii they
could. Keith expressed a willingness to
enter into such an arrangement for his
part. The city attorney left his recon-
mcndation with the council, and said he
did not think any creditor would accept
these notes while he had the city back of
him. The whole matter was finally refer
red to the finance committee, with in
structions to see what could be done on
the line suggested by Hood.
The city clerk reported Il balance OF

still pandering to the supposed craze Of
the farmers for free silver ii this thing
keeps on the only free silver men in the
country outside of the mining states will
be in the United States senate. The fact
that wherever a test OF popular feeling
has been had since congress convened it
has disclosed this complete revolution Of
sentiment in the classes heretofore bam-
boozled into the support OF free silver
may be taken as evidence OF similar
change throughout the whole stratum Of

Receivers have been appointed for the
branch lines operated by the Northern
Pacific in this state with the object OF
canceling the leases. owing to alleged
losses sustained in operating them. a
similar action has been taken in other
states, and is taken so the Northern Pa
ciiic can be released from paying the in
terest on the bonded debts Of these lines,
which it assumed in the lease. The lines
to Grays harbor and South Bend are in
Guided in these branches. They are
termed the United railroad, and have Il
bonded debt OF 1926, 900. The loss in
operating, if any, must come from the
South Bend part OF it, for ii all the sta
tons along the Grays harbor line do as

100000 month, it ought to pay interest
on it's share OF this bonded debt, even

half OF the amount of the bonds.
