farmers have finished cutting their
second crop Of alfalfa. The hay
crop, as whole, will be less than
last year, and it will fall slightly
below the average for the last ten
years. Pasture on the ranges is
drying up, but it continues good in
the mountains.
The weather has been very fa-
vorable for filling and ripening
grain. The heads are of good size
and the berry is plump, but the
stand is thin, and consequently the
yields are falling below the aver
age. The grain harvest has be-
come general in the Columbia river
valley and in southern sections,
and we'll started in the Willamette
valley. Oats promise better yields
than either wheat or barley.
The cloudy weather during the
forepart of the week, caused lice to
increase in the hop yards, and
some spraying has been done.
Hops continue thrifty and no Sc
rious damage from vermin has yet
occurred. The crop is not so far
advanced as usual at this season
of the year, and some fears are en-
tertained that it will not mature
before the fall rains begin.
Potatoes and gardens are doing
finely, but the nights have been
too cool for corn to make rapid
growth, and this crop now needs
rain. Field onions are reported to
be generally in good condition, al
though in few places they are af-
fected by blight.
A short crop of peaches is being
marketed, and pIums are beginning
to ripen. Prunes and pears con-
tinue to make excellent progress,
and these crops promise well.
Apples are uneven, and an average
crop is not expected. During the
past week high winds in the
Grande Ronde valley have caused
considerable green fruit to drop.

Strange to say, Notwithstanding
the Heppner disaster, the volume
of business here for the month of
July just closed has been greater
than the corresponding month of
last year. Heppner is the logical
business point of Morrow county

best towns in the Northwest.

GENERAL SUMMARY.
The forepart of the week was
warm and showery, while the lat
ter part WAS clear and cool, es-
pecislly at night. The showers
were not heavy enough to be of
benefit to corn and pastures, and
in some of the coast counties they
interfered with hsying. The hay
harvest is now we'll advanced, and
in the southern sections many

The wheat crop of the United
States will be short. Harvest is
now far enough along to get reli-
able estimate. While the crop is
short, the advance in prices will
make it worth almost as much as
last year.

The actual mining of coal for
commercial purposes has been
commenced at the Willow creek
coal mines. This is what the peo-
pie of Morrow county have been
looking for. There can be no bet
ter evidence of the existence of
coal in the Willow creek mine than
the fact that the coal is now in the
bunkers and will be kept there in
sufficient quantities to meet all
demands. The mines are now
opened up and there is plenty of
coal right now to supply the local
demand. 1t is only question of
taking out.

Says Mr.. O'Leary Of the

Cabe Of the Logan Observer,
both champions OF the repul-
lican cause in this county,:
/; AS lIr. McCabe has been
pretending to keep lis read
posted on the results Of M.
Gilcl.rist's Investigations at the
court house, why doesn't be
tell how things stood in the
auditors Office. For some
reason everybody is as still as a
mouse and the report has not
yet been filed. An attache of
the court house informed us
that the auditors office is in
debt to county $4,000. If this
is the case what is the use of
keeping so mum about it?
When we go in and make a
hollcr for reform we make some
pretensions OF being sincere
about it. What is sauce for
the goose is good enough for
the gooser.ne. This hypocrit-
ical bolnyast don't go for a reg
ular dict i'll this quarter. An
honest confession is said to
have q soothing effect on a
parturbed spirit and we are
almost ia The mood to pray to
our readers for forgiveness for
several Things. One assurance
we make right here, and that
is The Twine. will always tell
tic tEus.s Oh political matters,
to tic best CT our judgment,
regardless Of personal bias or
advantages. That is why we
de,ry Tie puny attempt to turn
down a competent, honest and
faithful republican official like
-. F. Ogden to satisfy the PER
sonal S,..sdge of a man whose
sole interest in politics is what
he can get cut of it. That is
why we want to know who is so
terribly Interested in doing all
this shielding. That is why we
are going to keep kicking at
any ring which has a greater
interest in personal power than
in public welfare. Logan may
be the hub of the universe, but

conclusion that the people Of
this section of Harrison county
arc almost unanimous in their
determination to secure an ade-

one man who because Of ego

poses the drainage bitches as
planned at present. The meet
ing called at the Council room
for this afternoon in order to
discuss a plan of action in fight
ing the bitches was a dismal
failure, only four being in at
tendance. One of the four was
a lawyer and another a farmer
living in the hills across the

after $3.50 those who had
planned the meeting called
everything off and adjourned.
