Hop Matters.

The pool of the Oregon Hop Growers
Association continues to grow, says the
Statesman. 1t now aggregates about
10000 bales. During the past few days
l,561 bales have been signed over to the
association by individual grow ers, the
amounts of the assignments ranging from
20 bales to ITO.
There is practically no market for hops
at the present time, the highest quota
tions offered being from five to six cents
per pound. No sales have recently been
made either by the association or by
individual growers. The last sales made
by the association were On last Saturday,
when two locs of 10 and 100 bales re-
spectively were made through the
Salem and the Portland Offices. Jack &
Carmichael purchased the Salem lot and
although the selling price is not obtain
able it is reliably reported that the hops
brought remunerative figure.
A fraction of the 1861 bales herein
alluded to, were at previous time
slSACu over W tlic oSSoCidtlou DuL the
formal transfer was not consummated
until recently. A condition that is
especially gratifying to the association il
the fact that large per cent of the l ,56l
bales enumbrated here, were original
and bona 6de transfers, having been
made in many instances. by growers who
until recently were not m nmbers Cf the
association.

An Alsea Tragedy.

Details ofa distressing tragedy in Alsea
were brought to this city by G. E. Tharp
last Saturday. The recital of his story,
which told of the death by burning OF
venerable and beloved Gran dina Malone,
brought chill of horror to those who
listened.
Mrs. Malone, upon whose head rested
the SHOWS of IS winters, lived with her
son, Captain Malone, and grandson,
Wade Malone, at their home, one and
one half miles south of the postofice in
Alsea valley. Last Friday morning,
contrary to her custom, Mrs. Malone
arose before the other members OF the
household and was preparing breakfast.
Between five and six o'clock her son,
who was in bed upstairs, heard her
screams and hastened to the sitting room
where he found his mother standing in
front of the fireplace, enveloped in q
sheet of fame. With desperate effort he
extinguished the FIRE which was rapidly
consuming her clothing, but before this
could be accomplished the eyes of the
unfortunate victim had been burned out,
and her body burned in places to crisp.
Death did not come to her relief until
five o'clock Friday evening, and her
suffering was something frightful.
Funeral services were held Sunday, in
terment being made in Alsea cemetery.
Mrs. Malone was bora in Georgia IS
years ago. She was beloved of all who
knew her, and the tragic manner of her
death has cast gloom over the neigh
borhood in which she lived.

CORVALLIS WAS SCARED
Lincoln Chambers Was Detained in a Box
Car and Returned to B1odgett.

Corvallis got her worst smallpox
scare, Wednesday, when the news was
irculated that man with this disease
was in box car at the G. & E. station
The man in the box car proved to be
Lincoln Chambers, of Kings valley, and
while victim OF the disease sone tim e
ago, he has been convalescent for over a
month. The disease is still raging in
his family, however.
Wednesday, Mr.. Chambers had busi-
ness in Corvallis, and being assured, we
are informed, by Jack Hall, the small.
pox nurse in that quarantined district
that there was no danger. he applied te
the conductor of the eastbound G. & E.
for passage to this city. He was refused
admission 10 the passenger coaches, but
after considerable parleying he was per-
mitted to come to town in box car. At
Philomath, the conductor wired the city
authorities of the condition of affairs,
and Chief Flett met the gentleman at the
depot. Mr.. Chambers asked permission
to visit the residence of Assessor Alex
ander, but the Chief would not grant the
request until Mayor Crawford had been
consulted. The Mayors orders were to
allow Mr.. Chambers to visit no one and
to permit no one 20 see him. In accord
ance with instructions from the quaran-
tine officials of the city Mr.. Chambers
returned to Wren in the box car Wednes.
day noon. He was in no way angered
at the city officials, as he realized that il
there was the slightest danger, it would
be criminal to introduce it into a city
filled with college students from all sec.
tions of the state. Corvallis has been
especially fortunate thus far, and the
vigilance of those in authority promises
to keep it SO.
Riley Logan, who lives on the Long
Tom, seventeen miles south of this city,
developed symptoms of the disease last
Friday and his home has been quaran-
tined. Rumors are also current to the
effect that Mr.. Hamar living in the
neighborhoed of Dusty, is confined to
his bed with smallpox and investiga-
ton will be made immediately.

The Wafer Case.

AS announced in this paper last week
Judge Hamilton has decided the case of
the Corvallis Water Company vs. the city
Of Corvallis in the city's favor. owing
to lack of time, we were unable to give
the details of the suit at that time. The
case is one in which the water company
undertook to compel the city to perform
a contract entered into by the police
judge of the city of Corvallis for the pur-
chase of the water works for the sum Of
$4,000, and suit was commenced in
April 1885,
The city after special election, in
which the voters declared for an issue of
bonds for the purchase of water works,
passed an ordinance authorizing the
police judge to enter into a contract for
the purchase of the plant of the Corvallis
Water Company. The contract was
duly signed, and the bonds were offered
for sale, An Injunction suit was brought
by certain tax payers to restrain the city
from purchasing the water plant. In
1895 the legislature repealed that portion
of the charter permitting the city to issue
bonds for the purchase of water works,
and subsequently all ordinances bearing
on the subject were repealed. The suit
of the water company against the city to
compel performance of contract followed.
and it has been pending in the circuit
court for nearly four years.
In his opinion, Judge Hamilton holds
that the proceed ings the council to
purchase the water works and isse bonds
were without authority of law, and void,
and consequently that the purchase was
void. Judge Hamilton holds also that
in the light of the requirements of the
city charter relative to special ele ction fo
the requirements of water works, tht
proceedings are void, because OF the fail
ure of the election no tice to follow thess
requirements.

Conceding the contract to be legal.
the court holds that a performance ol
the contract by the city could not be
compelled because the power to perform
was taken away by the legislature in
1895. The opinion admits that tne law
making power may not take away the
rights ACQUIRING under vested contract,
but holds that right to particular
remedy is not vested right. The
change in the law i'll this case takes
away the equitable remedy of perform
ance by the city, and leaves the water
company to an action of damage as its
remedy.
