The Strawberry Situation.

Berries are coming In slowly, owing
to the cool weather, and the demand
far exceeds the supply. This has kept
the market firm, and prices are ex-
pected to hold up well. Berries we're
still being billed out at SO. % yester-
day, and only about 500 crates per
day coming In.
Reports are general of light crop.
The March freeze hurt all berries that
had started to grow prior 20 the
freeze, many reporting only ! alt a
crop. The White Salmon crop il hurt
probably over 80 per cent, while many
within five miles of Hood River are
hurt so per cent. The foot-hill ber-
ries suffered very little, as they we're
covered more or less with snow. Those
best posted estimate this years crop
at about 60 per cent of last year.

To the Voters of WascO County,

During the past week there has been
and there is still being circulated
report throughout the country to the
effect that the saIoonmen Of The Dal-
les had given me $3.50 to use as cam
paign fund to defeat my OPP onent,
Mr.. Simeon Bolton, for county clerk.
was first informed of this at Hood
River by prominent Democrat who
is also a prohibitionist, and who at
first did not want to tell me where he
got his information. He said that
Mr.. Mo- re, foreman Of the fruit farm
at Hood River owned by County
Judge Lake, and County Clerk Bolton
told him, and that he (Moore) got 1t
straight from Mr.. Lake, and further,
that | told Mr.. Lake.
Now for the facts:
About six or seven weeks previous
to the primaries, and about five days
before / decided to sign my nominat-
ing petition, | met Mr.. Lake on the
street and in the course of our con-
versation the matter Of my running
for county clerk came up. Mr.. Lake,
Mr.. Bottoms partner in The Abstract
books of Wasco county, very kindly
said to me that was the strongest
man that the Democratic party could
put up, but that would be defeated.
said to him that was not going to
run, and did not intend to at that
time. | told him that number Of my
friends we're anxious for me to make
the race, and one man, who Is In the
saloon business, told me that the sa-
loon men would give me $3.50 toward
my campaign expenses, as several of
them we're sore, not because Mr.. Boil
ton was not drinking man, but for
another reason, that | did not tell
Mr.. Lake, nor am | going to put 1t in
print at this time, as very likely many
of the readers of this know. In con-
clusion, | will say to the voters OF
Wasco county that have lived in The
Dalles for twenty. nine years, grown
from childhood to manhood in your
midst, and those of you who know me
will believe me when | say that on my
honor as a man the saloonmen Of this
county have not given nor loaned me
one single cent to carry on my cam
paign, and further, that there is not
an office within your gift that in or
der to get | would knowingly tell a
falsehood, eithel in regard to myself
or about my opponent.
Yours to win honestly,
JOHN HAMPSHIRE.

The principal objection to Jona-
than Bourne at the primary election
was the talk about his conduct at
Salem nine years ago, and it was given
considerable credence. He had ig-
nored the malicious stories until the
circulation Of them by printed circu-
lars through the mail, when they have
been branded as false by men of un-
questioned character and standing.
Republicans who before believed the
stories should now have no hesitanoy
in supporting Mr.. Bourne.

He said that the idea was to blow the bottom up with dynamite and let the channel wash the material away. He said that an act of Congress in the nature of contract be- tween him and the government became necessary and was provided. The act was read, the United States agreeing to pay him S10,000 for each foot deepened and survey was had under Captain Carter, Captain Rees being in actual charge.
