Grace and Los Angeles streets, in the
suburban district north of the city, took
fire this morning about o'clock, and
owing to lack of water or apparatus to
fight the e-fames they and the house ad-
Joining, belonging to Mr.. Schlichtman' 8
son, were completely destroyed, with their
contents.
The fire then attacked the Abbott cot
tage, but here it was checked, although
not until the cottage was gutted.
The residents of the vicinity gathered
quickly, but could do nothing. At 1925
an alarm was turned in from box 4, at
Twenty-eighth and Adeline streets. and
the North Oakland chemical engine re-
sponded, but only in time to keep the
fire from spreading from the Abbott cot
tage to D. II. Hayes residence, adjoining.
The loss is estimated at about $40, 900
partially insured.

e. nOFER Denounced,
Salem Typographical Union Warns Men
Against Him.

Against Him.
SALEM, Or, Oct. 25.-Salem Typo
graphical Union, No. 210, considers E.
Hofer, candidate for presidential e,ector
on the fusion ticket, an enemy to labor
unions and labor in general.
The union has adopted resolutions
condemnatory of Mr.. Hofer, and gives
its reasons therefor. PREDATORY to the
resolutions adopted, it is set forth that
Candidate Hotter, as editor and proprie-
tor OF the Salem Capital Journal, has,
for many years, wTked employees at
starvation prices.
The union charges that about one
week ago, Candidate Hofer discharged
typesetter, man of family whom he
had been paying $6 per week, and hired
two in his stead, paying one $3.50 per
week and the other $l.50; that three
other typesetters who have worked years
at the business get only 81 per week
each, another 81 per week, and press
man So per week, making a total of $21
per week for seven people, or an average
of So per week. 1t is charged that for
foreman, "rat;' is employed at $40 per
week.
Referring to Hofer's treatment of em-
| ployes, the resolutions adopted and the
concluding words of the preamble, are
as follows:
"The sweatshops of New York cannot
be worse. His employees are all poor
people and depend upon their wages for
their bread. One young women keeps
herself and aged mother upon 81 per
week, and a man and his wife subsist on
$3.50 per week. These are truths of
record; therefore be it
'''Resolved, that we denounce such
damnable suppression of the poor
laborers and refuse to support any man
that is responsible for it. We, therefore,
ask the laboring classes and unions to
join with US in the defeat of Mr.. Hofer
for presidential elector."

CARE FOR BERRIES.

A berry plant in yielding its fruit,
maturing its seed and producing new
growth is much exhausted. In fact, the
life of each bud, stem and cane is given
in this effort. The maturity of fruit
buds on new canes comes after this ex.
hausting work, and unless good care is
continued to develop and perfect the
same, the succeeding crop is greatly
impaired. The strong canes must be
stimulated by removal of the weak
ones, and all surplus growth cut away.
Remember, the care given fruit plants
this season, practically determines the
porduct next, both in quality and guam
tity. Never allow you interest in the
fruit garden to lessen because the fruit
is gone. Never neglect that spot from
which you should receive more, for the
labor performed, than any other por-
ton of the farm. A fruit plant is as
sensit We to good care as stock on the
farm or members of the household,
and should be treated as well.
Strawberry beds for the family should
be made as early as new plants from
new bed can be obtained. When re-
ceived, dip roots in a thick compost of
dirt and manure water-nOt too strong
and set at once. Be particular to
have moist dirt firmly pressed about
the roots. Rake or hoe around plants
often AS buds appear on new runners,
cover them lightly with moist dirt,
thus producing new plants. Continue
this process until row is we'll filled, and
you may then expect nice lot of
