Hot Hotter :! Hottest -,

Chris. Morler departed on yes
terday mornings stage for the
Yellow Jacket.
We learn that the strike at the
Yellow Jacket has been settled
favorable to the Union, and oper-
ations will be resumed this week.
Throughout this has been a very
peaceably strike, the Union hav-
ing acted part worthy of the
highest respect.
The celebration at Bayhorse
was a grand success The town
was crowded with people. From
Challis alone some fifty or sixty
ladies and gentlemen were in at
tendance. The drilling contest
was won by Thos. Hines, and
Frank Mulvaney took first money
in the foot race. The fireworks
and ball in the evening were very
pleasant events.
How do the silver Republicans
like to be termed mobites 1t is
not long since the Statesman
proclaimed the ability of this
country alone to coin silver. 1t
now goes right back on it. 1t is
going to be the Oregonian of
Idaho, is it =? All right, let it;
but one thing,i it should not whine
if its support does not remain
intact. We have always urged
support of the Statesman as a
state organ, regardless of any
political differences, but when it
comes to a matter higher than
politics-bread and butter for
the mouths of our children-and
when that paper comes to the
condition of utterly misrepresent-
ing this grand state, we can do
so no longer. We must say,
goodbye, white liyered, coward
ly rag Adieu, traitor to every
Idaho interest !-Weiser Signal.

already enough advices from dis

concern. The free coinage people

Mckinley managers within the
past "a hours and they do not
disguise the fact that they are
much worried over the situation.
Much as they wish to keep the
tariff to the front, they are every
day impressed with the idea that
another 'irrepressible conflict is
upon them in the shape of the
silver question. Advices are re-
ceived from the Middle states
and the far west that show only
too plainly which way the tide
is running. Some of McKinley's

says the audience consisted of
an Indian, two men and three

lame and probably couldn't get
away. The lame man was out
of luck and couldn't help himself.
We feel sorry for him.

WHEELMEN IN LINE.
Riders Mounted on Decorated
Bicycles Parade the Streets
at Night,

FRESNO, CAL, Oct. 5-To-night there
was grand Illuminated bicycle parade
through the principal streets. Over 250
wheels were in line, many of the sur
rounding colonies being represented.
Emory Donahoe was grand marshal. The
prizes for the best decorated wheels were
awarded as follows: First prize, a
gold watch, to L. .. Stevens. brilliantly
illuminated fan of unique design; second,
two bicycle suits, tandem ridden by
Frank Kicker and Charles Reid, illum-
mated boat; third, bicycle suit, State
Senator A. J. Pedlar, Illuminated bower of
pampas grass.
The streets were SO jammed with people
that there was scarcely room for the parade
to move. The decorations were frequently
cheered. The city was brilliantly illu-
minated by several hundred extra electric
lights by the San Joaquin Electric Com
paay. The excursion train left for Stock
ton at o'clock tonight. Many of the
the excursionists remained in the city over
night.

MANY BISHOPS PRESENT
Semi. Annual Meeting of the
Woman's Auxiliary Well
Attended.
Encouraging Reports of All the
Pacific Coast Dioceses and the
New Hospital.

The semi-annual conference of the Cali
fornia State Branch of the Woman's
Auxiliary of the Episcopal Church was
held in Trinity Episcopal Church yester-
day afternoon. Prior to the meeting the
executive board held private session and
outlined the work for the succeeding year.
Bishop Nichols presided at the meeting.
Delegates were present from the various
parishes OF San Francisco, Oakland, Ala
media and Berkeley. In his opening ad-
dress Bishop Nichols reviewed in general
the work of the last year, and stated that
he thought it advisable for the Bishops
auxiliary fund to receive $50 month till
next year. 1t is probable that this will be
granted.
Bishop Barker of the Olympian diocese
OF Washington gave brief address on the
institutions and work there. He was fol-
lowed by Bishop Johnson of Los Angeles,
who spoke encouragingly of the progress
made along the Santa Fe route from Mo-
jave to Needles regarding church work.
Bishop Leonard OF the Nevada and
Utah diocese explained in very inter
esting manner how the work OF the aux
illary was carried on there. He also made
mention of the new $4,000 hospital
located at Salt Lake City.
Bishop Kendrick OF the Arizona and
New Mexico diocese stated that he had
heard much in regard to the progress
made in matters religious in this State,
but was agreeably surprised to find that it
exceeded his greatest expectations.
Mrs. James Newlands, the State presi.
dent, told of what had been done and the
aims OF the organization for the future.
The meeting was closed with prayer by
Bishop Nichols.

RAISINS ARRIVE.
Dawn of a New Era for the Fresno
Growers-En Route for Aus
tralia.

Dawn or New Era for the Fresno
Growers-En Route for Aus
tralia.
A significant shipment arrived in San
Francisco yesterday.
1t was no less than the first carload of
raisins shipped from Fresno over the Val
ley road. They were consigned to
F. B. Peterson & Co., some of
which are to be transhipped for Aus
tralia. and the boxes, containing prime
London layers and other grades of
Fresno's prize fruit. were piled ON Pacific
street wharf. There were 1900 boxes in
all and yesterday, being a holiday, they
were left undisturbed. To-day, however,
the stevedores will make up for lost time
in putting them aboard the Mariposa for
the Antipodes.
The shipment was regarded by mer-
chants as marking notable epoch in the
raisin industry. Hitherto there has not
been much effort made, in view of the
heavy freight charged by the Southern
Pacific, to extend the export trade of
raisins. As one of California's staples,
the dried fruit of the State. and especially
raisins, have been found able to compete
with the product of any other section
of the globe. Fruitmen say that now
the Valley road having forced transport
tation rates to a reasonable figure, the
dried-fruit industry will be largely stimu-
lated and beneficial result will be felt all
over the State.

HISTORY OF THE ROAD.
Hasty Glance at Striking Events
Along the Pathway OF Its
PROGRESS.

The history of the Valley Railroad really
began upon the day when Claus Spreckels,
John d. Spreckels and Adolph Spreckels
sible to rally other support to the enter
prise, and to afford guarantee that the
line, long desired and much discussed,
would be actually constructed. Had they
not upon that occasion led the way the
Valley Railroad would, in all probability,
have been far from in existence still. In
fact, it was generally recognized when a
meeting was called by the Traffic Associa-
ton of California on January II. 1895, to
be held January %. that unless decisive
action was taken at that time the long
struggle for the establishment of COM
peting rail line must be abandoned indefi.
nitely.
Isaac Upham, then the president of the
Traffic Association, in his call for the
meeting of January %, 1896, wrote as fol-
lows:
"Some of our friends feel quite discour-
aged, but for one do not feel like giving
up the fight yet. We should continue the
work for at least thirty days longer. We
should submit this matter to real estate
interested in the prosperity OF this City,
and if they say mo, we will not sub
SCRIBE the failure is not our fault and the
blame must rest On those who refuse"
The situation was indeed desperate, and
other extracts from Mr.. Upham's call for
the meeting show that clearly. 1--WE are
completely at the mercy of one corpora
ton, and cannot believe that the people
of this City will allow this golden oppor-
tunity to pass by without taking advan-
tage Of it. The people of the San Joaquin
Valley are watching our movements very
closely. They cannot understand why 1t
takes 80 long to raise the small amount of
$3.50, 900, when this amount should have
been raised in three days.
1--WE are fast losing ground. and unless
something is done quickly the trade of the
San Joaquin Valley will be lost to San

The Tie-Un Con. plete.

PEORIA, Ill. Oct. 5.-Grand Secretary
Austin of the Order of Railway Tel
egraphers has received dispatches from
points on the Canadian Pacific road which,
he asserts, show that the tie-up is prac-
tically complete, and that only few
passenger trains are moving.
Mr.. Austin claims that the road is un-
able to move any freight. and that large
quantities of time goods, as well as perish
able property, are lying on different di-
visions. He asserts that cattle are starv-
ing in cars in the middle section of the
road.
The railway officials deny these reports.

A MERRY FEAST.
Products of the San Joaquin VAL
ley Served to the City's
Guests.

FRESNO, CAL, Oct. 5-When the
speechmaking stopped at $3.50 o'clock
Chairman Reichman invited all to par
ticipate in the barbecue. A second invita-
ton TO pitch into" the succulent viands
was not needed. An acre of white tables
piled high with bread and spread with
glistening dishes was close to the plat
form. The crowd seemed to be made
hungry for San Joaquin Valley products
by long waiting. In about minute not
a vacant seat was to be seen, and in about
thirty minutes the barbecue, the largest
ever held in the valley, was sweet morsel
of recollection.
Men, women and children banqueted at
the feast. The savory odor of cooking
meat had been detected in that vicinity
for fortY-eight hours previously. 1t was
literally the feeding of a multitude. The
variety and amount consumed consisted
OF 1000 pounds OF meat, including beef,
pork and mutton, $500 loaves of bread, 200
pounds or about 1000 cups of coffee, 200
pounds of sugar, several tons of such
grapes as only grow in the unparalleled
fertility of the San Joaquin. All disa2-
peared as miraculously as the Biblical
was chef. assisted by half dozen cooks.
Fifty men waited on the tables.
Here is a little incident which shows
how the Valley road is appreciated and
regarded as the forerunner of better times.
Carpenters Hiram Ford, A. Gale and A.
w. Delhi gave their services to the bar
becue committee. They made all the
tables ard trestles and erected the
speakers stand.
After the barbecue there was brief in.
terval in the general entertainment, but
at $3.50 o'clock miIitary parade, inspec-
ton and review by Governor Budd and
staff came off according to programme.
This took place in front of the Hughes
Hotel on l street. Four companies of
State troops participated-C, Captain
George Duncan, and F, Captain G. w.
Jones, of Fresno; E, Captain f.
w. Ward, of Visalia, and II, Captain
Graham. of Merced. Each company had
about fifty men in line. The troops made
splendid appearance. At the commands
of the officers intricate maneuvers were
executed with the regularity and precision
of clockwork. Governor Budd and staff
reviewed the troops from the sidewalk
and Immediately after inspected them on
horseback on the Southern Pacific Rail-
road Company's reservation.
The members of the Governors staff
present were: General A. w. Barrett of
Sacramento, Colonel Peeler of Sacra-
mento, Colonel Hansen of Pasadena, Colo
mel Young of San Francisco and Colonel
r. L. Dunn of San Francisco. The Third
Brigade staff present we're: General Null
Ter, Colonel Hay and Major Nichols.
Others present and participating were
Major Colin Chisholm and Lieutenant
Colonel S. S. Wright of Fresno
An immense crowd witnessed the in
spection OF the troops.
