Meeker's Good Sense &.

f. w. Meeker, the hop king of the
Pacific coast has the following sugt es-
tive thoughts in a letter to the Tacoma
Ledger. What he says of the Yakima
is true of the Willamette valley, exec
that we W. 8 h, W plenty of water:
"Forty years ago next September |
first saw the Yakima valley, having
come through the Nachees pass on the
back of Jonathan McCarty's white
bob-tail pony. My outfit consisted of
sack of hard bread, bit Of bacon and
some tea and my saddle blanket for
M bed. | WAS alone and camped
where night overlook me. The old
emigrant road led me across Nachees
river thirty-twO times and finally over
the divide to the Wenas creek and on
dow n to the Yakima.
"This great Yakima county is now,
with water, becoming great garden.
And yet men tramp, tramp, tramp,
with nothing to do, and hundreds of
thousands of acres of this same fruitful

OUR WHITE ELEPHANT.
The City Council Meet to Consider
CITY Hall.

Last evening the city council met In
adjourned session to confer on matters
pertaining to the city hall. Alderman
Albert presented the report Of the
building committee and moved TO con-
slider the first proposition Of the report,
which was that $4,000 Of the general
fund to be received from the tax col
ector bs set aside for use on the city
hall. City Attorney Condit was called
upon and reported that after warrants
outstanding were paid there would
still be deficiency and that the cOun-
Gil did not have the power TO appro-
pirate the money on which outstanding
warrants had the prior claim. After
these were all paid, money then re-.
celved might be used for that purpose.
Then followed a discussion of the
sit tuatioD that now confrOntt
the council; that Of an uncompleted
;ity hall on hand and no
money to furnish contractors. A
uumber of plans were proposed. That
# Issuing more warrants was rot feast
Die because Of the illegality Of city
warrants outstanding to the amount OF
more than $4,000. A proposition was
m de to provide by ordinance for the
setting aside of four mills for the nexl
four years for building purposes. This
would be an additional burden of taxa
uon aud would not be agreed to. After
other plans not considered feasible wer,
discussed, Alderman Albert moved that
committee be appointed by the mayor
TO confer with the contractors and sub
contractors and see what kind of al
agreement could be made toward either
laying the work over till next year, oI
enclosing the building and going ahead
with the work-the committee to re
port the next meeting-carried. The
committee on inspection of the opera
house asked for further time to make III
report, which was granted. Alderman
Albert moved that the city engineer In
with the city attorney re-
port an ordinance on the width of side
walks In the residence portion of the
city, same providing for the building of
"A cement walk narrower than the pre-
scribed wooden walk. Motion was
carried. On motion of Alderman Gray,
council then adjourned.

DISASTROUS FIRE.
Portland, Ore, Visited by Destruc-
tive Flames.
Elevator and Dock Of the Pacific Coast
Elevator Co. and Much Other Valuable
Property Dcstroyed-Four Per-
sons Reported Lost.

Furious Flames.
PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 24.-The most
disastrous fire in the history of this
city broke out at 4:30 o'clock yesterday
afternoon in the dock of the Pacific
Coast Elevator Co., and ragged for three
hours, destroying property valued at
nearly si,5OO,oOo. All day long heavy
wind was blowing and nine alarms had
been turned in. The fire department
was scattered about the city,
looking after the small fires when the
alarm from the elevator was rung in.
The scene of the fire is in Lower Al
bina. across the river from the main
part of the city, and it was at least
fifteen minutes before more than one
engine could respond to the general
call. When the engines arrived the
fire was beyond control and in half an
hour from the time the fire started the
docks for half a mile were on fire.
Nothing could be done but let the fire
burn itself out.
the Pacific Coast Elevator Co.'S main
building and the wind soon drove the
flames to the elevator itself. The
flames shot into the air 200 feet. max
ing beautiful sight in the twilight.
The coal bunkers of the North Pacific
Terminal Co. on the west were next at
tackled and soon were a mass of flames.
On the east was the Oregon Railway e.
Navigation Co.'S wharf. 400 feet in,
length, and this, too, was soon on fire.
There were no means of getting water
on the fire except from the river. and
the fireboat is an improvised old scow,
and of very little service.
The elevator contained nearly SOC, 900
bushels of wheat. The new plant Of
the Portland General Electric Co,
which had just arrived from Lynn,
Mass, was standing in the yards of
the Terminal Co. on the cars, not yet
having been unloaded. The plant oc-'
cupied an entire train, and the ma
chinery was of the most expensive kind,
the most of which was destroyed
and the remainder badly damaged.
Two hundred freight cars, eighty of
which were loaded, were destroyed.
On the Oregon Railway and Naviga-
tion CO.. docks there were 1.500 tons
of freight consisting of wool, salmon.
general merchandise and cement, all
of which was destroyed with the dock.
There were stored ON the dock asboSt
1900 cases of salmon from thu

Three men are supposed to have per-

Hnvemeyer, of the American Sugar
Refining Co., has issued orders for the
