Athena-Hog raising is now an ex-
tensive industry of the farmers of this
district. 1t is estimated that fully
1000 hogs are being fed in this i'm
mediate vicinity at present. John

winter. Nearly every farmer of the
district has increased his stock this
season and they are taking a deep in

ready market for our hogs"

Rushing to the Coal Fields.

Prairie City-There is a big rush
through this place to the John Day

discovered. Men are coming into the
country to investigate, and much of the

coal is said to be superior to that pro-
duced by the Heppner coal fields, and
there are indications that large depos-

been discovered in many places. Sew

A correspondent of the Advertiser,
claiming to be friend of Prof, Brig
ham, this morning published what pur-
ports to be a defense of the eccentric
curator. We did not think that there
was man in the Hawaiian Islands
with sufficient nerve and gall to at
tempt a defense of this moral mon
strosity, but it seems that there is one.
So positive and unanimous is the pub
lie condemnation of Brigham, however,
that no defense can modify its force.
The case is too plain; the offense is too
fragrant and grave for excuse or SYM
pathy.

Boycott and coercion are being
again resorted to by those in Govern

We do not think that the spirit of
the public is in favor of shutting out
persons eligible to become American
citizens from public contracts. Two of
the gentlemen rendering for the new
jail contract, Fred Harrison and F. H.
Redward, are eligible to American cit
izenship but have very good reasons
for not becoming such at this time.
They have now pending between the
British and Washington governments
claims for damages growing out OF the
revolution of 1895. The moment they
forswear allegiance to King Edward
the British government would discon-
tinue all effort in their behalf The
people the policy is intended to reach
are such persons as are not and cannot
become citizens.

Most Home Rule meetings are well
attended, and that without beer and
feasting, and even without the blast
ing Of trumpets with all the attendant
din and noise. But not so with Repub-

of beer, of feasting and of noise. In
the last is included the usual hot-air
cauldrons, which are the regular known
quantities of strenuous political eff
forts by both parties.

say that if any native went there with

The Attorney General and both of his

The Republicans just now are los

capital of the fact that the bankers Of
Honolulu are ready with their money
to help out the Territorial government.
He states that the monied men have
confidence in the government because
II is in the hands of the Republicans

the Republicans in power. When east
ern bankers stand ready 10 loan Ha-
waii all the money she needs at Az

scene of the recent and uncalled-for
royal funereal pageantry of the late
prince" Kunuiakea, being the main
part of it depicting the catafalque and
the kahilis with their supporters in the
late royal regalia. Home Rulers have
taken this up to apply to the funeral
awaiting the Republicans on November

theirs will not be as royal nor as gor.

ity that the rule of the Republican

has conferred with the treasury Off
cials and 1t is announced on good au-
thority that there will be no financial
legislation. No tariff legislation is pos
sible, and the prospect is that very lit
tie will be done beyond passing the
current appropriation bills and incor-
porating many speeches in the Con-
gressional Record, so that they may be
circulated among the faithful at the ex-
