THE CONTRACTORS.
Mass Meeting In Portland and Day Bros
Denounced.

Mass Meeting In Portland and Day Bros
| Denounced.
For some time there have been com
plants among laborers about the man
ner in which the contractors at the
Cascades were managing affairs. Late.
le agitation has begun regarding the
fact that laborers are worked more than
eight hours each day, and an action
will be begun in the U. S. district court
to test the matter. Tuesday evening a
mass meeting was held at the corner of
Sixth and Washington streets in Port
| land to denounce the Day Bros. Many
| of the men had formerly been laborers
| at the Cascades, while others were at
tfacted thither by curiosity. From the
Evening Telegram of yesterday we CLEAN
the following account OF the proceed
ings:
1.-THE principal speakers were Edward
Teesdale and James K. O'Brien. The
latter worked for the contractors until
last December, and since then he has
been interested in the prosecution or
the attempt to prosecute Day Bros. for
their failure to regard the law which
says that laborers shall work eight
hours and no more on government
work. Several resolutions were passed,

States engineers who are in charge OF
the work, and is couched in strong
terms. 1t reads:
"Resolred, That we hereby condemn
the government officials in charge of
the work for allowing the J. G. & l. N.
Day Company to continue to pay the
laborers employed on the locks in time
checks, said officials knowing the labor |
ers were compelled to allow discount |
of from 20 to 40 per cent for cashing |
time checks on the work; that we also |
condemn the government officials for |
not having placed United States |
time keeper in charge of the work. that
the laborers who have been defrauded
out of time and wages might have some
one to appeal to-"
1.-THE federal grand jury is consider
ing the charges against the contractors
today If an Indictment is to be found
it may be returned tomorrow morning
at IL o'clock when the United States
court meets. The district attorney had
been considering the subject long be-
fore last nights meeting was cOntem-
plated. He had not issued warrants
'or the arrest of day Bros, except the
,ne issued in February for l. N. Day,
because he believe it more advisable to
nave the matter go directly before the
grand jury. He considered warrants
Wholly unnecessary.
'Mr. J. G.. Day, one of the firm is here,
md he may be called upon to testify"

Only His Buttons Left.

An instance of the great dissolving
powers Ofsulphuric acid is furnished by
an accident which recently occurred in
the chemical factories at Mulhouse.

An operative was blown up into the air
and fell into trough filed about three
feet deep with sulphuric acid, the tenn
perature of which was found to be 81
degrees G. ten hours after the accident.
The death of the man was only proved
by the discovery of his caoutchouc res

and other unsoluble articles. Every
thing else had chemically combined

Wharf to be Repaired.

Capt. Donavan's fat boat, with
pile driver, moved up the river from
the, Cascades last evening, and this
morning the pile driver was put at
work on the D. P. & A. N. Coz wharf
in this city. All the damaged piling
will be replaced by new piles, and the
wharf will be thoroughly overhauled
and repaired. The landing is now
very good, but with a few more piles
could be made much stronger and
better adapted to the purpose,

Good Fruit and Grain Prospects.

Hod. W. q. II. Dufur, who came in
town today from his farm on Fifteen
Mile creek, about five miles south of
Dufur, says the late cold weather and
frosts did no damage to the fruit on the
creek, and large crop is anticipated.
The ground is yet in fair condition for
plowing and sowing, which are nearly
completed. Fifteen Mile creek is high
on account of melting snow: but no
disastrous results are expected from
the overflow. The highest Water is
generally experienced in June, but the
streams in this county rarely do any in
Jury to farm property.

Yesterday being the twenty-fifth an

Mrs. George A. Liebe, of this city,
was properly celebrated. There were
several friends from distance present,
and all extended congratulations to
Judge and Mrs. Liebe upon the happy
event. In the evening reception was
held in Fraternity hall. After con-
gratulations, their many friends sat
down to banquet, and AFTERWARDS the
hours passed merrily in dancing. Mr..
Andrew Keller, the confectioner, was
table was burdened with the choicest
viands in the market. During the day
Judge and Mrs. Liebe were the recip-

which 4 will be highly priced as

an event long to be remembered by the
parties, on account of its many agree

but the cap snapped and his sisters in,
terferred, and Swartz' anger cooled
down. For several days the. young
man was cared for at home, but was
finally sent to the hospital in Portland.
The blood from the wound in the neck
could not be stopped, and he became so
weak that he died. Swartz is now IN
Jail in Salem, and will unquestionably
be indicted by the grand jury. From
the testimony before the coroner, it
appears that Swartz is hard, cruel
man, and ruled with rod OF iron In
his family.

MEDLOCK CAPTURED.
Stage Driver Hutchinson Brings the Pur-
sued Man to Pendleton.


Hugh Medlock was brought in Tues
day evening from Ukiah by Driver
Hutchinson of the Ukiah-Long Greek
stage line, who was the captor. Sher.
iff Houser gave him a deputyship be-
fore returning to Pendleton after the
two weeks ch,se. Hutchinson came
on Medlock Monday evening beyond
Ukiah and after chase for six or
eight miles, rounded up the man.
Medlock had been followed as far as
Ochoco river, Crook county. AS soon
as the officers turned back, he also
took the return trail and was hiding
in the vicinity of Ukiah. The pursuit
of MedlOck has been one of the long
est on record. He was raised near
Milton, and has traced and retraced
the mountain trails of Eastern Oregon
until they are familiar paths to him.
Numerous charges have been lodged
against him in several counties of the
state, and it seems probable that he
may have some trouble in clearing up
the atmosphere of suspicion now sur
rounding him.

Mining on the Columbia.

Robert Douglass, of Stage Gulch, has
been mining on the Columbia river,
cleaning the yellow metal from the gol-
den sands of that locality. Sunday he
was in town with one third of an ounce
of pure gold, which at $3.50 per ounce,
is worth $3.50. This is the result of
three days labor and he has returned
in the hope that he can make wages
every day, and besides have a good
margin on the clean up. Mr.. Douglas
is an old time miner, who formerly
operated at Cape Town, Africa, and
once mined at Virginia City.-East

A WHEELING TRIP.
A Young Man Who is Cycling From Port
land to Baker City.
Pepdleton Tribune

Edward Clark, young man pushing
a strong wheel and twenty-five pounds
of beddingsand clothing, rode through
Pendleton yesterday. He is on his
way to Baker City from Portland,
which place he left Friday morning at
nine o'clock. An average run of forty
miles was made daily, and this Mr..
Clark regarded as good time, consider
ing the condition of roads between
Portland and Pendleton. They are
very rough and often sandy, and with
the exception of the stretch between
Deschute's ferry and John Days ferry,
the best piece of road he struck con-
nected Echo and Pendleton. From
Troutdale to Hood River the rider fol-
lowed the railroad, but exclusive 'of
this distance, the highway proved a
better track. Considerable portion of
each days trip in the mountainous
section had to be made on foot. Mr..
Clark camps by the wayside, and is en-
joying regular outing.

A great many people in the coun-
try set out to have a good garden.
They manure it well and put it in
good order; they procure good seed,
also, and then when pease are fit for
the table they have two or three
messes for dinner and then stop.
With their beans, also, once or
twice seems an abundance. Now
if they would only keep on picking,
and when not wanted for their own
table, sell, or even give them away,
the plants would keep on producing.
While Dame Nature is prolific, es-
pecially in the production of seed,
sheis not willing to waste her efforts;
hence, when you allow the pease or
beans to fully mature number of
pods the plants cease to bloom, and
there is the end until another year.
This holds good, also, with toma-
toes, though not to 50 great an extent.
Flowering Pease, or Sweet Pease-
In order to have long succession
of blooms they must be cut unspar-
ingly. But first they must be plant
ed deeper in the soil than any other
variety. Sweet peas have become
immensely popular of late, and just
ly SO. They are not only beautiful,
but fragrant also, and make up well
in bouquet. Three blooms facing
each other on single stem is the
latest fad, but is a fact also.
