obliged to offer so cents to get their
crop pic J. Some growers refuse to
pay more vhan 30 cents but the pickers
IN those yards talk of going elsewhere.
The bi int sunshine this morning
produces more cheerful expression
on the faces OF not only the growers
but also the pickers. With two weeks
of favorable hop picking weather, the
Willamette valley crop will have been
gathered and many thousand dollars
placed in circulation.
IN BUTTEvILLE VICINITY.
County Clerk l.. V. Ehlen spent
Sunday on his farm near Butteville.
He has eight acres of hops, the picking
Of which will be completed by Thurs
day OF this week. Mr.. Ehlen reports
mold spreading very rapidly. Mr..
Ehlen's father, ]. w. Ehlen, has seven
acres of splendid hops. Frank Teller's
yards, aggregatlng about 70 acres, and
Jacob Miller's 20 acre yard are yielding
an excellent quality. Mr.. Ehlen re-
ports the greater part of the grain
threshed IN the vicinity of Butteville.
Grain that has not been threshed is
all stacked. There is some grain be-
tween Salem and Gervais in the shock
and will be more or less damaged by
the continued wet weather
~,r ~,Nrr amy
The fact cannot be disguised that
the wet weather has already brought
great Iloss to the hop growers.
Throughout the hop country border
ing the line between Clackamas and
Marion counties, the choicest and
most important hopgrowing section of
Oregon, the rain has caused great
damage during the past week, the loss
being conservatively estimated at be-
tween % and 81 per cent of the hops
that were merchantable week ago.
Comparatively little picking has been
done, on account of the wet weather,
and the lack or pickers. In many of
the yards, poles have been blown down
by the wind, and the loss is not in
considerable from that cause, IL hay
ing been impossible to attend to the
PROSTATE vines while the rain was
falling. Sunday the weather was
suitable for picking, but the
yards we're so muddy from Saturdays
rain that pickers could not get about
at their w0rk, so no picking was
done.
Assuming that the weather shall be
unfavorable all the coming week, the
damage already begun will continue
to grow 1pidly, and not o yard will
escape it. If there were pickers
enough to push the dry houses to
their fui. capacity, it would assist
masteri " in saying the crop. But
more , -;ers are leaving the hop
yards in disgust and returning home
than ar oing to the yards, and the
lack of pickers will be apparent in
good weat ther than it Has been yet.
There are intimationS Of a rise in the
price of picking, the prospect Of a
sitter market through decreasing
yield, and the stern necessity for
prompt action in caring for the crop
warranting such an advance. In
Butteville, Sunday, growers who had
hitherto offered but 80 cents were Of
fering 3S and 40 cents and it was per
dicted that few days of fair weather
would see the price for picking go up
to 80 cents per box.
A very bad feature of the situation
is that the best hops standing may
yet be entirely ruined If there are
any hops that have wholly escaped
damage, even to this date, the grow
ers do not reveal the fact.

THE JUBILEE PROCESSION.
Wild Gamble for Windows &c.
100000 for Seats.


Mr.. Hawke and the Anti Gambling
League will really have to turn their
attention from the comparatively
small speculation OF the Turf to the
greater and more systematic gam
bling which is taking place over the
sites for the Diamond Jubilee sight
seeing. Scores of syndicates are
buying sites for the rise, and now
company has been registered, the
Diamond Jubilee Grand Stands,
Limited, to deal on q Wholesale
scale in seats to view the procession.
The capital of this company is
fixed at 10000, and in addition to
dealing in seats, the concern hopes
to do business in illumin sting and
decorating, and in catering for the
customers for whom it finds accom-
mediation. 1t is small capital, but
then it is one day company.
Mr.. j. E. Rivett, of Messrs. Oetz.
mann & Company, informed Lon
don Daily Mail reporter, to whom
he showed the correspondence
which had passed in the matter,
that he had had offers of all sorts
for seats, ranging from
3s TO $4,000.
For three houses in Pail Mall and
st. James Street, he had offers of
f1500, f1700 and $4,000 respectively,
and the negotiations we're still pro-
ceeding. These offers, he believed,
were made on behalf of syndcates,
as, indeed, were most Of the offers
he had received. People who wanted
couple OF seats for themselves
we're finding the prices so high that
they deemed it better to pay forty
or fifty guineas for an entire win
dow, to hold ten or a dozen seats,
with a view Of sub-letting those not
required for personal use.
Some of the applications received
by post had, Mr.. Rivett stated, been
very amusing. For instance, a
gentleman in Yorkshire had placed
himself unreservedly in Messrs.
Oetzmann's. hands, commissioning
them to find seats for himself and
his large family at 3s per head.
This Yorkshire gentleman mentions
that he is not particular at what
part OF the route the seats are pro-
cured, so long as they are good ones.
Yorkshire men always did like to
come in on the ground floor
Mr.. Rivett has heard, on good
city authority, that change in the
route is likely, and that, instead of
the procession going by the east
side of St. Paul's and along Cheap
side and Poultry, the dangerous
turn thereby encountered will be
avoided, and the procession will
pass along Cannon Street and Queen
Victoria Street to the Mansion
House

their daring deeds but I thank God he
permitted me to be born upon the soil
of the state that produced such men.
1t has nov been a half century since
history closed the chapter of the Mexi-
can war. Few of the veterans remain
to meet and renew the stories of the
campfire. In a few more years they
will answer the last summons.
Let us prove to those who still are
with us that republics are not migrate
ful. Let it not he said the men who
added five sstars TO the flag have
cause to complain OF their country's
ingratitude. Let us see that the vet
eran of Mexico is treated no less gen
%erously Than [the veteran of the
civil war. And let us see to5it, too,
that time shall not efface the glory of
their brilliant deeds. Some n has
said that no woman who had ever
known the love that fills Il mothers
heart conld be eve wholly lost. So il
seems to me any man who has given
10 his country such a supreme test OF
loyalty must always have n balance in
the ledger book of life. Let us hope
when the lines are formed beyond the
for the last march upon the eter-
nal city there will be no vacant places
in the ranks and ut the last great roll
call every soldier will answer here.

remarkable generalship on the Ameri-

find two generals whose tactics and
character were more dIssimilar han
Taylor and Scott.
Taylor was careless of appearance
not overly strict in discipline, reckless
in the exposure of his person, fighting
the enemy usually where he found him.
His plans seemiagto lack that thorough
care and preparation that usually ac-
companies success in war. Right aptly
did the soldiers call him Rough and
Ready.
Scott on the other hand was punctil-

though he were moving chess men

groomed as though he was on dress
parade. Not less aptly though some
what onmenOnty called by the men
ODD Fuss and Feathers.
Yet each was equally successful.
Successful because the young nation, a
giant grown, had in the war of 1912
discovered It's strength and was now
for the first lime experiencing what it
was to be united against II foreign foe.
Successful because they led not hired
soldiers but heroes. Successful be-
cause they were followed by men in
in whose veins flowed the best Gghing
blood that ever Redeemed a battlefield,
so through two long years of des-
perate fighting they never lost a battle.
