ute, in the discharge OF some duty, when

The passenger business OF the local
railway Office was larger for October
than for the corresponding month of
1894. but the freight business was only
about half as great. The falling off in
the freight traffic is attributed to the low
prices and lack of market for hay and
potatoes, the fact that only half OF the
crop OF hops has been shipped, and that
there has been no increased hop acreage
necessitating the transportation OF poles,
which for several years past formed an
important part of the shipments from the
west side of the mountains.

an organization, but at the time it was
claimed that they were unsuccessful !;
but so confident is THE HERALD's in
| formant as to the'truth OF his statement,
that he claims the meetings are held in
the upper story of the building occupied
by G. M. Mckinney as a real estate
office.
