Exchange.
Two gentlemen made business deal
last week at WallaWalla in which 10000
bushels OF wheat we're contracted for this
fall at so cents per bushel. The one who
agrees to pay that price for wheat when
the crop is harvested says he has no fears
Of losing anything on the deal, and may
make considerable money above that
figure when fall prices for grain are es-
tablished.

graniteware, mating, also large bog OF
belts, all sizes, Tor machinery. Call and

C.J. Morey, who has just closed a
term Of school on schuttler Flat, was in
town this week interviewing our direc-
tors as TO his chances for teaching our
school, commencing in September. lie
informs us that he has taught school for
many years in Multnomah county and
was on the board OF examiners in that
comfy for long time. Supt. Kennedy
speaks favorably Of him as a teacher.
Men who are offered $3.50 or $3 per
day in Northern Idaho to work in the
mines are not allowed TO do so, and the
mine owners are threatened with des-
truction Of their property, il they employ
men at these prices, by the leaders Of
the Miners union. Scuh despotism as
this, injurious alike to property and
labor, makes these unions odious and in
tolerahle in nomlnally free country.
An exchange says that it is the sue
cessfu man who has good word for
everybody. The more OF failure man
Is the more he runs other people down
and the deeper he gets his nose into
other peoples business. II that is the
case--and there is no doubt that it is
true--there are several very complete
failures in this section, who never were
known 10 say afavorable word about any
body.
The Commercial Tribune says that
the greatest sin man has to answer for
nowadays is poverty. lie may have
grievons faults, but il he has money, his
faults are overlooked, but IL he is poor,
God help him, for he will find few others
10 do so. To say man has made q sue
cess OF his life, means tnat he has mAde
money, it matters not how. To say bis
life has been failure. means he is poor.
Ii is no wonder that the poor are dis
contented.
In Wasco county they are killing
squirrels with lice. They have tried TO
give them smallpox and other conla-
gious diseases, but 1t failed. Finally they
imported few lousy squirrels, and now
where there used to be twenty there is
but one. The lice seem to eat them mp
alive. Those caught in traps are lousy
and as lean as match, and are more
dead than alive. 1t seems to be a snre
cure, and the time will come when they
will sell squirrel lice over the country in
drug stores as they now sell bird seed.
The dispatches show Michigan and
Wisconsin have had six frosts during
the month of May, Apples peaches and
plums have been badly damaged.
Throughout northern Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois four-tiiths Of the crop has been
ruined. In New York and Pennsylvania

point four times in ten days, and fruit
has suffered severely. In Iowa, Mis-
souri, and Nebraska, the entire corn croE
will be to plant over. The Pacific North
west seems to be particularly favored
this season.
