may bring them considerable money.
One OF them they have refused $4,000
for, and expect to likewise refuse any
less sum than double that amount. The
mine is both gold and silver bearing, and
vii! run quartz assaying fully s69 to the
ton, $32 Of that amount being gold. II
the ore isn't free milling it is the next
thing to it. A HERALD reporter saw some
OF the quartz, and it looks remarkably
rich. Whether or no the gentlemen
will themselves develop the mine cannot
be said, as Mr.. Dunlop was somewhat
non-colnmittal on the subject.
Practically no business was transacted
at the last meeting Of the city council be-
yond the introduction of an ordinance
pertaining to licenses for street fakirs and
the passage upon third reading Of the Or
dinance pertaining to cleanliness in al
leys, closets, etc., appearing elsewhere in
this issue. Health Officer Frank was
present and asked that a new ordinance
be prepared regulating the use of flags Of
different colors for infectious diseases OF
various kinds, in accordance with the
United States and state boards Of health
code. The city attorney was instructed
to prepare such document The fakir

passage at the next meeting. Those

ElIensburg Register: Mr.. c. /. Helm
visited the state fair grounds on Tuesday
and reports that great preparations are
being made for large exhibit from all
parts of the state. The buildings are
very fine, and the race track is being put
in excellent shape. They are very much
pleased at North Yakima to know that
Kittitas county means to take promi.
nent place in the exhibits. 1t is unfortu
nate to some extent that the state should
be divided between the state and inter-
state fairs, as this is the first state fair
ever held in the state, and should be
made a rousing success. 1t is hoped that
exhibitors may see fit to patronize both
literally.
The HERALD's September hop report
from London is as follows: "There is no
material alteration to report. Trade is
still slow and of 'hand-to-mouth' char
acter for all kinds. There has been
little more inquiry for Pacific growths
this week, and rather more business has
been done at the very low prices now pre-
vailing. Good States and Pacifcs can be
had at 6la to DC for choicest. Some poor
States are offered at &c. The weather
continues warm and bright during the
day. Plantations are going on we'll.
Vermin are practically cleared off, but
mould is inclined to run in places. Some
are OF opinion that We shall get equal to
G300, 900 old duty If the weather contin-
ues warm. We do not figure so much"
A Mr.. Schooley, OF Chehalis, who with
three Of his daughters walked from his
home to Yakima to pick hops this year,

only one daughter.
