Potato ShIpments.

Shipment of potatoes to San Fran
cisco from Portland has already begun,
something unprecedented 80 early in
the season. Farmers are digging, but
there is a chasm in California yawning
for every potato taken out of the ground
in Oregon. and they are going for the
purpose of trying to fill it. The Cali
fornia demand has already caused the
price to rise from 80 to 60 cents.
There are said to be plentiful supply
OF potatoes in Oregon this year, how
ever, and when digging really gets in
fuii blast the price will come down
again.

WHO IS DEWEY?

About half OF Naples and less than
half OF Leghorn knew who Admiral
Dewey was. Many admirals come to
both places. and the populace thought
that ne was only another. Those Of
Leghorn will be enlightened i'm the
course OF time, just as they of Naples
were. by the local papers whose report
ers will go on board and ask what IL
was that the admiral did that the
Americans should make so much fuss
over him.
"Oh. just sailing round the world"
the officer of the deck may say very
seriously.

of May l. 1898. but the Italian papers
