Want a Factory Mnred.

The Coquille city council has for
warded proposition to g. w. Peek.
proprietor of the broomhandle factory.
that if he will move the mill north 80
feet from its present location. they
would give him five years lease on

council asking him to do go is to give
more room for getting to and from the
new wharf, which will be badly ham.

Thursday, May If, 1899.

The only good piece Of good news
which the Bryanites have received
in the past three years has justccme.
1t is the report that the winter wheat
crop has been damaged by the cold
weather to such an extent that there
is likely to be a falling off of about
25,000,U00 bushels on the basis of
an average crop. This is causing
JOY in the Bryanite camp. The adj
vent of an epidemic of Asiatic chol-
era or the occurrence of an earth
quake or any other calamity would
also arouse delight among them.
But the Bryapites are whooping too
early. 1t will be very easy to make
up for the failure in the winter wheat
by the planting of an extra acreage
of spring wheat. If there is any
probability that there will be any
storage of wheat that is what will be
done. Then, too, if wheat should
turn out to be only an average yield
or a small crop, there is corn yet to
be heard from. Corn is not vet
planted, and until July or August
nobody can tell what sort of a yield
there will be OF this great cereal
Corn is even more important in the
amount Of money which it represents
than is wheat. OF what avail will
be the whoops Of the Bryanites over
q short wheat yield if the corn crop
should turn out to be heavy?
All sane Democrats recognize that
only through the occurrence of some
widespread and tremendous affection
can their patty have the faintest
chance OF y victory next year. This
is a very frail reliance, however, us
all TIE members of that party are
aware. The prospects are that there
will DO no calamity Of any sort.
From present indications general
trade will be pnore active in the
coming few years than has ever been
known IN this country along to this
time. We have = fair assurances that
crops will b Ut least up to the aver.

weather continues favorable from
this time onward as great a yield as
was ever known in all the important
farm products is possible. There is
good reason to assume that the farm
ers as we'll as all the rest of II Q
people will prosper. Providence is
likely to be kind to the American
people in the present year and the
coming one, as in the past twelve
months. In icing kind to the

Mob Destroys a Mormon Church.

An angry mob of Kentuckians de-
stroyed O Mormon church at Beeck-
burg, Fleming county, KY, last week.
The mob took great pains to destroy
the church so that it could not be re-
built of the same timber, and they
could not get the fire insurance they
carried on the church. The church
had just been built, and they had be-
gun to hold services in it. The mob
went there by night and destroyed the
building with axes. There were about
forty men in the mob, and while part
of them destroyed the church, the
other part stood guard with double
barreled shotguns to keep off any who
might try to stop them. This makes
four Mormon churches destroyed in
Kentucky, three others having been
burned.

has in contemplation an army of quite
10000 men for the Philippines.
While Mr.. Root has been at the
head of the department only a short
time, he has been making diligent in
quiry among the bureau chiefs regard,
ing supplies and equipments, and the
trend of his questioning has been in
the direction of an available force in
the eastern archipelago.
The belief is growing in army circles
that Secretary Root has in mind plan
practically matured to make General
Otis available force at least 10000
men.

'Tt is understood that the plan of

"It is probable that General
Wheeler will be given command OF
brigade of cavalry in General Law
toms department.
"The boundary line of Lawton's de-
partment will embrace the territory
in which there will probably be the
heaviest fighting so that Lawton will
be in direct charge of the most impor.
tant forces in the field, and in this
way General Otis, while not being
