CROP REVIEW.

Bounteous Crops Are the Rule-Hops
Will Make Big Crop.
Showers occurred east Of the Cas-
cades during the night Of June 10Th
and the morning June 30; with this
exception fair weather has prevailed
over Oregon during the past seven
days, The temperature changed but
little during the past week from what
is was the week before. Frost occurred
over the Plateau RegIn Of Eastern
Oregon on the morning . Of
2sth, damaging the more tender vege-
tation In various localities.
The weather has been favorable to
all growing crops. Hay harvest is In
progress; the reports indicate that
clover and wild nay are unusually
heavy, and that the crop of timothy
fully equals the best crops Of former
years. Fall-sown wheat, barley, rye
and oats are nearly ready to harvest
in all sections. In Douglas, Josephine
and Jackson counties, and in the
counties of the Columbia RIYer Val
ley, beading and harvesting have
commenced. The grain is reported
to be perfect and the yield unusually
heavy in every section. Spring-sown
grain continues TO promise a yield
almost as heavy as the fall sown,
while volunteer crops are equal to
many former crops which were called
"good crops" The fruit crop con-
tinues to promise 'very large yields,
Prune trees are generally overloaded
and hand pruning has commenced.
Early Peaches in Wasco, Sherman and
Morrow counties are ripe. Cherries
contiue to be plentiful. Strawberries
are nearly through bearing. There is
no improvements in the condition Of
hops. Lice have appeared and ener-
getic spraying has commenced. The
missing hills will amount to about
one hill in five; those growing
as. healthy and promising as pos
sible. Corn and vegetable are doing
finely; the latter are growing and de-
veloping much better than is usual.
Early fax for fiber is being pulled
1t is thirty-six. and more inches long
In all fields; the later sown fax is
making most satisfactory progress.
The success of flax growing In Oregon
is assursd. Sugar beets are making
most satisfactory growth, and this in.
dustry has the most fiatterlng pros
poets for success. Range food is good
and stock is in prime condition.
There are no adverse conditions to
be reported except in hops and even
hops promise yield equal or greater
than last year. A year OF big crops
in Oregon is assured; only unpre-
cedent weather condition can injure.

misguided efforts of those who are to-
day striving for an Anglo-American
alliance. When, IL ever, that alliance
Is consummated, goodby to American
independence and to the worries hope
Of human freedom !-Boston Pilot.
oUR PROMISE REMEMBERED,
Our esteemed contemporary, the
Independent, observes; "lf there is
one thing that the American con-
science overwhelmingly demands it
is that the Philippines, no more than
Cuba, shall be restored to Spain"
Only a part of the Philippines has be.
longed to spain these many years.
We trust "the American conscience"
does not set up claim to all the
islands on the ground that Spain owns
part Of them and we are going
to whip Spain. We are increasing
and daily doubt about the thing de-
scrlbed as the American conscience"
But we remember that the American
word went out to the world, from
president and congress-, that we were
reluctantly driven into war, that
our one purpose was the pacitication
of Cuba, that we solemnly disclaimed
the design of conquest or domination,
and that we said we should "wIth-
draw" when we had secured tran
guilty and a stable government,
--Universalist Leader.
A SILVER DEMOCRAT.
Not the strongest reason for antag-
onizing territorial expansion as con-
templated by the new school of states
men lies In the fact that to enter into
such a policy would be to sound the
death-kneel of the Monroe doctrine,
invite foreign interference In the
affairs Of this continent, and entsngle
us in the meshes of European
diplomacy, with all its jealousies and
its squabbles. Nor does this lie in
tn e fact that the new order would
demand the Incorporation into GU
governmental system of features
foreign to all the ideas of those who
planned and laid the foundation Of
the republic, and who, in erecting the
superstructure thereon, worked into
that structure tablet after tablet
emblazoned with warnings against
the very spirit of innovation, not to
to say iconoclasm, that nov confronts
us.-Richmond Dispatch.
A GOLD DEMOCRAT.
Some esteemed contemporaries are
disposed to poke fun at the Times
and newspapers like 1t that they are
iu accord with the position that
William ]. Bryan has taken the sub
ject of territorial extension, and are
regaling us with the repetition OF the
old saying that politics makes
strange bed fellows" That sort OF
chafflng has no effect upon us. AS
soon as the suggestion was first made
that the United States adopt che poll
Icy of Imperialism, so-called, the
Times entered its protest then and
there, and we have not ceased to cry
aloud and against any such policy.
Since that time Mr.. Bryan has
planted himself firmly upon the Times
platform. His speech at Omaha
against imperialism was sound and
statesmenllke, aud the argument that
he used irrefutaole. He voiced the
views OF this paper, and the Times
would be narrow aud bigoted Indeed,

Since Saturday the rioters have been

which did no harm. The rumors that
the volunteers would revolt against the
government have had no foundation.
Nevertheless on Saturday and Sunday
several generals arrived here from

portions of Havana province with ad-
ditional reinforeements. About $4,000
men are now located within the city
limits and in the outskirts.
Certain politicians have Industrious

teers would join in the riots and have
still further increased popular passion
by saying that the government intend
to disarm them. 1t has also been said

Now that the disturbances have
quoted down the greater part of the
