MiIIers ON fhe Relt

The East 0regonian says: For two
hours and half Monday night the elect
ric lights were out in Pendleton and the
city was in total darkness. The explana-
ton furnishes an account OF very pecul-
lar occurrence, which would not happen
at any station more than once in it's his
tory. During the evening the
lights began to grow dim, and the sta
ton men thoughtthe wires were ground
ed, and as consequence the engine was
overloaded. The incandescent lights
were first turned off, but that did not
remedy matters. The large driving belt
connecting the engine with the dynamos
was running in most peculiar manner.
1t was jumping up and down and strik.
ing the stone works as it never had done
before. Then the arch dynamos were
cut out and the engine shut down.
William Burgess, the superintendent
OF the works, had come up to the station
to see what was the difficulty, and be
soon discovered that the big belt was lit
terly lined with thousands OF the white
millers, which are now so numerous in
Pendleton. One by one, dozen by dozen,
the millers had flown into the open win
dow, and had been drawn by suction into
the belt until it was one mass OF crushed
millers.
Chslked cloths were used in wiping
the belt, aud the lights were again turned
on. During the remainder of the night
no more trouble was encountered.

Il then passed down the wall, scoarching
the paper; violin was split and pictures
thrown to the floor. The cspracious
streak now turned its attention to sew
ing machine, which was utterly demol-
ished. Content with its work, it passed
behind mop-board and into the ground,
without setting fire to the house. Mr..
Carlson's two boys were sleeping on the
porch, and escaped injury.
Weston -four has found favor abroad,
and since last Monday the mill has beer
in operation night and day to fill 100.
ton order from the China trade. An ex-
perienced night miller was engaged to
assist Mr.. Stump, who presides in the
daytime. Weston will be- fortunate in
deed II these outside orders enable the
mill TO be reckoned as an active and
permanent industry, for it's people seem
in no wise inclined to provide q home

celient bread.making qualities.

MIR. Augustine Makes Interesting Re-
marks About umatiIla
County.
II. w. Augustine, the we'll known COM
msrcial traveller remarked TO an East
Oregonian representative the other morn
ing:
"I noticed last evening that melon,
potatoe and corn display in the grocery
store window down town. understand
the stuff was raised on the Bailey irrigat-
ed tract near UmatilIa, and that one and
one-half years ago thatsthat land was like
all that is around it--a barren sagebrush
desert. This, of course, is trus, as people
who have been passing over the road
between Pendleton and Portland have
looked out on that waste for many wears
and wished some ons would turn it to
some account.
II regard the showing as very wond.
erful one. There is not locality on the
Pacific coast, not excepting any part OF
California, which can make so good
showing as this. If the people here would
only realize what resources they have at
their command they would build more
bitches and utilize the land which is now
useless.
There is no land in the world superior
to the heavy sagebrush land of Umatilla
county, when once water has been put on
it. 1t will raise anything.
"You people don't realize your advant-
ages. Take California; Water must be
conveyed much greater distance on the
average, and, when the land is covered
the products are not so heavy.
~ believe that when the present de-
preston passes away. all these enter
prises will be taken hold Of and pushed
through and this country will be one of
the best in the west"
Inasmuch as Mr.. Augustine has been
living in Los Angeles, California, his
statement is very significant.

The fruit crop Of Oregon is failure
this year, and the farmers and fruit grow
ers will find themselves out of pocket
thousands of dollars. The damage was
done by the two severe frosts that occur
red late in the spring, when the fruit was
just beginning to develop At the time
Il was feared that these unusual frosts
had affected the fruit, but it was not con-
sidered so extensive and far-reaching as
it has proved. In fact, Weather Obser-
yer Pague started at the time that the
frost would not seriously affect the crop.
All this, however, was wrong, as the
frosts proved altogether far too serious to
the fruitgrowers.

Free Coinage an Impossibility.

The time has come, I think, MT. Speaker, when the Republican party should set its face firmly against the free coinage of silver except by inter- national agreement have been willing to do all in my power to maintain as large an amount of silver as possible in circulation, and the figures have given are proof conclusive that the Republican party has done its full duty and reached the limit so far as the free coinage of silver is concerned. and ill the coming campaign 1t should be true to it's past record for honest money and give the great financial enterprises and financial institutions the stability that can only be reached by firm declaration against debased currency. Under present con ditions the opening of our hints to free coinage is an impossibility. It means ruin and bankruptcy to many millions of people. From Speech of Hon. J. W. Babcock.
