Nate Randall, who was we'll
known here, died in Denver, Col. ,
on October 21st, 1904, during a
surgical operation. A year or
so ago while at Rawlins, Wyo.
he was shot in the stomach ac-
cidentally. The wound caused
him more or less trouble until a
short time ago, when it became
necessary for him to undergo a
surgical operation, which result
ed fatally. He was about 46
years of age at the time of his
death. He was for time en-
gagged as mining superintend-
ent here, and as an ore buyer.
He was finely educated and
naturally a brilliant man. AS
an expert accountant it was diff
cult to find his superior. He
married Isabelle Cliff here. and
the couple lived happily togeth-
er for years, but he fell into
drinking ways'and they finally
separated, and she got a divorce
and is married again. But for
his craving for liquor Nate Ran
dali would have made his mark
in the world. News Miner, Hail
ey, Idaho.
Randall was well-known in
Custer county. While here he
went by the name that he gave
himself Senator Few Clothes. "
John N. Wallace, of Boise,
Smith, Webb and Mack, of Bon
ANA, on the 1st inst, sold plac-
er ground on Yankee Fork, near
Bonanza, to H. L. Prentiss and
Edgar t. Wallace, of Boston,
and Rupert Winters, of this
place, who is the superintendent
of the Boston & Idaho Dredge
Co. The price of the Wallace
ground is $500 and of Smith
& Co.'S. ground, $4,000. First
payments were made the first of
this month-$4,3 333 to Wallace
and $500 to Smith & Co. The
final payments will be made on
the 1st of next October. Smith
& Co. sold go acres, down Yam
kee Fork from Jordan creek.
Wallace sold 260 acres, below
the claims of Smith & Co. The
purchasers are equal partners.
They are now negotiating for sc
acres extending up Jordan creek
from it's junction with Yankee
Fork. The gravel in all the
claims averages ii feet in depth,
and the ground is what would be
considered rich for dredging
purposes. 1t is fiat and could
not be successfully worked in
any other way. The purchasers
have not yet decided whether
one or two dredges will be put
on next year. Mr.. Winters said

Thousands of PickerS Are

Hop picking will in almost
every yard next week, and thousands
of Piekers are now camped, awaiting
the signal to begin work.
The river steamers plying between
Portland and upper river points are
crowded every trip with all manner of
people, and a motley array of baggage.
The last trip of the oregona 275 men,
women and children were landed at va.
rious points between Aurora and Salem
Extra steamers are carrying the city
people 20 the yards, while hundreds
from the farms, mountain ranches and
smaller towns are conveyed by team.
II would be a difficult matter to esti.
mate the number of people employed in
the yards during picking, curing and
baling time. From a careful and com.
plete inquiry among the best informed
hop men il is learned that Oregon has
about $4,000 acres in producing hops.
From this acreage it is expected that
about 10000 bales will be harvested.
For the work required during the
month Of September about $4,000 men,
women and children will be employed,
picking curing, baling and marketing
the crop.
The quality Of the hops this year is
fine, and the auantity ia almost Som.
inaL While the bulls AMI bears do not
agree on the latter, it can be safely
said that the number Of bales will be
practically that Of last year.

New York, Aug. 0.-COnsidersbl,
Interest has been aroused among tn,
politicians Of all parties by the report
that the Republican headquarters here
are sending out thousands Of copies
of Thomas E. Watson's speech Of &C.
eeptance Of the Populist nomination
for the presidency in the hope Of es-
tranging the votes Of the Bryan Dem.
ocrats from the national Democratic
ticket. Many Republicans and Demo
Gratis, too, do not hesitate to say that
Watson's speech is the strongest yet
made against the Democratic ticket,
and that it will do the Republicans
good than any, not excepting
that Of Elihu Root, in opening the ma.

FAVOR
PUBLIC
PLANTS
Interviews With Some
of the Best Citi-
ZenS
Men Who Think Salem Ought
to Acquire Public Utili-
ties One at a Time

The Journal has talked with a mum
Der Of Salem citizens who favor pub
lie ownership Of an electric light plant
Many others favor the city owning
both light and water Of its own. But
the conservative element fayors taking
a step al a time.
There is a general expression in
favor Of buying the Wilcox property
under the terms Of the city charter on
the popular loan plan. It is readily
seen that It would ensure the estab.
lisbment Of the fax industry at Salem,
and rent with power for enough to pay
the interest on the whole property.
Some Citizens Talk.
Judge HOrgan; The result would be
very beneficial. The citizens would
get better service and the city more
evenues
John Q. Wilson: The Wilcox prop
erty is a great bargain for this city.
II we can get good business admins
tratiOn the city ought to own a light
plant.
II. A. Virgins; The time will come
when the city will have TO own all its
public utilities. The question involved
IN this matter is whether the city is
mot already too heavily in debt. IL we
can carry any more debt with safety !
would favor public ownership.
Robert HALEY; Present rates. on
electricity are almost prohibitive for
the ordinary citizen when il ought TO
be the cheapest light we could get.
There is no use in burning oil for light
and the city ought TO own its light
plant.
T. s. Northcutt; The city should
W all it's public utilities as soon as
possible. As a general thing public
ownership furnishes light for about
one-half what is paid to private com
panies. Let us acquire these utilities
at a time.
