HOPS
KEEP
HOPPING
Prices Now Stiff but Who
Can Tell What a Day
May Bring Forth

The hop situation is becoming in
teresting from the standpoint of
speculation and gambling. The Jour.
nal has tried to maltain a conserva.
tive attitude, and has consistently ad.
vised growers to sell whenever they
could get over 20 cents. Those grow
ers who are now holding for 30 cents
a pound may make it, but six weeke
from now may see them fat on their
backs. There are always more hops
to be had by buyers than are consid.
cred to be in the market. It is claimed
at present there but 1900 bales in
growers hands, and 10000 bales in ali
still in Oregon. The hops that could
be had for 25 cents a few weeks age
are not to be touched at that figure
today, and there is a good, healthy
demand. Actual sales to consumers
are made largely by dealers, and the
situation may be broken any
day. The dealers are in a position to
supply all orders, without calling on
a single grower for a month.

All About a Dead poa.

At a charivari, at the SCHNEIDER
home in Polk county, near the Wal.
lace farm, last evening, a little dihi.
Guilty occurred in which at least one
man had his face somewhat disfig
ured, and several others carried off
few honorable scars or scratches to
prove their prowess. Several parties
had gone out from this city, and an.
other crowd came up from Lincoln.
and at the SCHNEIDER farm, while the
crowd was discussing the pleasures
of the evening" some one reported
that George Bayne's dog had beer
killed in the woods by some hunter
few days before, and Emil Graber
one of the Salem boys present, was
accused of shooting 1t. Another ond
of the young men had caused a horse
to break loose, and the two incidents
brought on a miX-up that resulted in
the Disagreement of the faces Of sew.
eral of the boys, and when the wreck
age was finally cleared away and the
hospital corps came on the ground, II
was found that blackened eyes and
bruised noses had been suffered by
several of the valiant knights At
last accounts all OF the wounded were
able TO go about their work, and there
are no fatalities, except in the case
of George Baynes dog.

HOW KENosHA GROWS.
Mayor Pfennig is Busy Preparing Figures
for New Report OF the Census Bureau.


Mayor Pfennig is Busy Preparing Figures
for New Report OF the Census Bureau.
The growth of Kenosha will be
shown in the nezT future by booklet
to be sent orl by the Department of
Commerce of the United States Gov
eminent, and Mayor Pfennig is now
busy estimating the population of the
city for the past three years. The
Mayors estimate for the present year
is about 14,661 or an increase of 5000
over the population as last reported to
the census bureau. The Mayor bases
the figures on growth of thousand
people a year.
The last city directory, which was
issued nearly year ago, showed that
Kenosha had population of at least
thirteen thousand people, and the
steady growth of the number of men
employed in the factories in the city
gives assurance that the figures Of the
Mayor are not too optimistic, and it is
possible that Kenosha has already
passed the $4,000 mark. The growth
per year from 1895 to 1900 was 696.8
people year, and there has certainly
been greater growth in the last three
years.
The issue of the booklet by the de-
partment will be looked forward to
with q great deal of interest by the
people of the city.
