Strawberries.

Mr.. Thomas Harlan of Mosier was in
the city today. He has just returned
from Denver, where he went to look
after the berry market for next spring.
He tells us he sold three carloads of
berries in Denver for June delivery, and
at Colorado Springs made a contract to
furnish berries during the season at the
rate of so to 100 crates day, and at
prices ranging from $6 to,$7 20 per crate.
If these prices can be procured for the
hood River crop, there will be money to
throw at the birds there next summer,
and more money than birds.

from Saltmarshe & Co.'s yesterday.
The Union Dancing Club will not
give their usual dance tomorrow night.
jackson Engine Co. No. 1, will hold
their annual meeting tonight and also
elect officers for the ensuing year. A
full attendance is desired.
The East End is not as lively as during
the spring and summer months and yet
considerable business is being done.
Just ask Farrott about that big order for
goods.
Hon. E. B. Dufur shipped by express
yesterday thirteen prairie chickens to
Judge Waldo. The birds will be turned
loose on the Waldo hills, and if let alone
should soon stock that section.
Mr.. S. L. Brooks is having building
erected on the west side of his brick in
the East End. 1t is one story, will be
covered with corrugated iron, and will
be used by Rupert & Gable for harness
store.
The Dalles Cold Storage Company is
receiving some very fine ice, forty-five
carloads of it, which will be used in their
business next summer. When we went
by there this morning the president and
treasurer of the company had their coats
off and were pushing the big cakes into
the ice house in great shape.
On account, of i'll health, Rev. J. Whis-
!. Ter has been compelled to resign the
pastorate of the M. E. church in this
tcity, and, accompanied by Mrs.
Whistler, will leave for his home
in Denver, Colorado, tomorrow night.
This is much regretted by the commu-
nifty in general, as not only does the
church loss an able and energetic pas
tor, but the city one of its most honored
citizens. It is sincerely hoped his
health will improve.
Mr.. J. M. Huntington is making rapid

TWO YEARS MORE.

Two years ago the proposition to
resubmit the liquor question to a
vote of the people of this state was
defeated in the senate and passed
in the house. At this session the
senate passed the bill by a vote Of
is to Is, while the house killed it
by a majority of 8 votes. 1t may
be of intitE to learn that the vote e
to defeat sais .eminently just and
fair measure came mostly from the
republicans, and of the 80 votes
which sealed the fate of the bill,
nearly a half were cast by foreign
born members. Cunning and trickery
stamp the action of those who op-
posed the measure as they knew
fully we'll that to attain their ends
unfair means would have to be re-
sorted to and accordingly the bill
was sprung in the house Saturday
afternoon when q number of men,
bers were absent-excusst to spend
the Sabbath with their families.
The bill was bitterly opposed by
scheming politicians who had Joined
forces with the wholesale dealers
and the temperance workers, not on
any ground of public morals, or be-
cause their constituents demanded
such action, but because of personal
motives. which were apparently OF
greater importance than the wishes
of the people. The bill has met its
defeat in a similar manner to that
of two years ago-the saloon ele-
ment of Minnesota. The prohibi-
tionists have no reason to congratu-
late themselves on having gained in
strength for such actions on their
part as have been brought to light
during the past two campaigns only
tend to weaken their cause.
