MONEY IN THEN.--Hugh Finley. who
was down this morning, reports prune
driving on his farm as progressing favor
ably. The two dryers are running day
and night. aud beginning last Monday
| morning and ending last Saturday night,
900 bushels we're dried; $50 bushels
are yet to be taken care Of, and Mr. Fin
ley believes the dryers will be able to
handle the crop without loss from over
| ripsness. Seven persons are employed
about the dryers. and ten at picking.
Dried, NJ Finley believes his crop will be
20 600 pounds, OF which something over
two thirds are petites and the rest are
Italian The crop Of the latter is short
Two or three weeks after the fruit 10
dried il goes into a sweat that continues
about four weeks. which will render the
product marketable about November
18th. Quotations at present for petites
are four and Ila.ians six cents, which
would make Mr. F.uley's fruit crop oring
more than 5000 Mr. Stone does the
driving and takes one-thiTd Of the crop
Corvallis Times.
THE OTHER SIDE.-Mr Frank Campbell
says the version Of the assault case with
Mr George Harris is Incorrect, and gives
his version of it, which as the DEMOCRAT
prefers to give all sides of sffairs, We
publish: "Mr Harris follow ed me from
the school horse to my house, which /
can prove, and in my mothers dooryard
called me liar and drew back as though
to strike me. l slapped him; his foot
caught on the walk and he fell He
then offered to take hush money and not
settle in court OF justice, which | re-
fused to pay. but paid fine in the re-
coFder's court l can prove my asser-
tlons and he cannot his. / am NOW
ready for any further result"
TEE SAME MULcAHY. following
from the Salem Statesman is interesting
reading: R E Mulcahy, well known in
SAleE, society. is now = member OF the
banging and brokeiing firm OF Muicahy
Townsend & Co, OF San Francisco. A
circular letter issued by the firm an
nounces its personnel, and speaks Of Mr.
Mulcahy as follows: "Mr Richard z
Mulcahy. late general superintendent OF
the Oregon Pacific Railroad company,
was Tor many years identified with the
New I 1oTk Stock exchange. and the Chi
cago board of trade. Of which he is now a
member. 1t is the general expectation
that Mr. Mulcahy will become connected
with prominent Salem family in the
near future.
WAS IT OSE.-As we have net given q
Lane county stand up for three or four
days we publish the following apology
for ore: VIII Keeney, OF Goshen, claims
to have been held up last evening about
80 O'Clock. just north OF the Day block
near Willamette street, where he had
his team hitrhed, and robbed OF two
filed CAGE gold watches and between 80
and $40 in silver. He says the man had
q paper sack over his face for a mask
and Eas quite tall The officers had
very little confidence in the story, as it
would seem impossible for such an oc-
| currence TO happen Il, such . public
place and at such an early hour in the
evening, when the slightest ortcry
would attract crow OF people The
yoang man vas somewhat under the in
fiuense of liquor.
A Big ITEN in wheat raising is storage
aud sacks. hence The following from the
Dalles N will be Of interest: Judge
Ruby, one Of the most extensive farmers
in Washington, cultivating over 5000
acres and having 2l00 in wheat this year
has abandoned the use Of sacks entirely.
He will have his grain carried by ma
chinery directly from the thresher 10
bins containing 1900 bushels, without
hauling. 1t will there remain until
winter, when II will be taken to Colfax
and shipped loose in box cars. His crop
will be about 50, 900 bushels.
THE TESTIMONY 1S The testimony in
the case of George NJ Clark, contestant
iagt Charles ] Tucker, Martin r Tucker
and the o & K Il Co, has ais been taken
and consists Of l87 pages OF type writer
send il TO Oregon City where il will bG

The Pendleton + D continues 10 shout
Debt and laws which encourage debt anC
sustain the credit system are responsible
for the present condition Of things.
there were no debts there would be pros
perity and progress. The people out o
debt at the present time are para
lively happy and contented. Ali law
for the collection OF debts should be re
pealed and abolished.
