THELAST BOAT.
uta Next Fa1l-Loca1 Steam
boat Office Closed Yester-
day Morning.

The local Office of the steamboat
company in this city was closed
yesterday for the season, and
Agent H. N. Hoffman left by the
afternoon train for Portland, where
he will continue in the employ of
the Oregon City Transportation
Company. The last boat until the
fall rains make bigger river, left
down yesterday morning with a
small cargo. 1t was the Pomona,
and she only reached Corvallis af-
Ter most difficult trip up. in which
she nearly tore her steam capstan
asunder in pulling herself over a
gravel bar. The last trip is little
later in the season than usual, the
long continued rains have kept the
Willamette at boating stage sew
eral weeks later than is common.
The last tip ii 1895 was made
June 18th. The river is now. but
10 inches above low water. The
fact that the Pomona draws Is inch
es OF water shows what the task is
of dragging her over the bars at
the present time for upper river
traffic. The chief obstacles to sum-
mer navigation are in the river be-
tween Independence and Albany
Whenever boat can reach Albany
it can also make Corvallis as there
are but few obstruct.ons between
the two latter towns. The Pomona
will make regular trips hereafter
between Portland and Salem.

A GREAT BATTLE.
Of Lawyers-The Mitchell
Tria1-Corva1lis Witnesses
Return.

That the Mitchell trial at Seattle
is the hardest fought legal battle
that has taken place in that city for
years, is statement of those famil-
lar with the facts. TIE; e;cfcrmation
comes from Victor Hurt, who arriv-
ed from the battle ground, after two
weeks absence. Four brilliant law
yers are matched in the case, two
for the state and two for the defense,
and progress on both sides is con-
tested and disputed inch by inch.
Some Of the scenes in the court
room have been dramatic in the ex-
tr-me, particularly when the attor-
neys for the defense have intirnate9
that the judge is partial to the pros
ecution. Little by little, as they
fought, the attorneys for Mitchell;
have gained favor with public senti-,
ment. until now the over crowded!
court room, the people on the street
and apparently the united popula-
tion, save the judge and lawyers
for the state seem unanimous ard
pronounced in favor of Mitcbslr.

CITY HAS FEW UNIONS.
Bricklayers are Not Organized IN
Grand Forks-Fargo Strike.

The strike of the bricklayers at
Fargo has called attention anew to the
fact that Grand Forks has no unions
among the building trades at present.
There was an effort some years since
to organize a number or unions, but
they all fell through. At present
there are SOME union bricklayers in
the city, but most of them are nom
union men. The wages paid in the
city, however, are about the same as
in the surrounding cities, which are
strongly unionized.
At Fargo the bricklayers have
struck for ninethour day, and there
will be lively times in the city up the
Red when the building season is fair
ly under way. The latest move in the
strike Is the refusal of Anderson
Bros. & Johnson to concede to the de-
mand of the strikers for the nine-hour
day and the 60 cents per hour wage.
The firm has the contract for the
brick construction on the new city
hall and will employ non-union men.
An effort has been made to coerce
the firm by political influence but
without avail. Mr.. Johnson said in
an interview in the Forum of yester-
day:
IF the bricklayers are not reason
able in their demands" said Mr.. John
son, I'VE will do the work OF the city
hall ourselves. There are three OF
us in the firm who are bricklayers
and, rather than submit to the unreal
sonable demands which the bricklay
ers are alleged to have made, will don
working clothes and do our own
work.
I'VE do not object to the nine-hour
day at. the same rate of pay as before,
but we do object to paying men 60
cents an hour who are only worth 80
cents. We have been informed that
this is what the bricklayers now de-
mand. Heretofore we have been ac-
customed to pay bricklayers whatever
they were worth. Men who had only
been working at the trade for short
time we have paid from 80 cents an
hour upwards, and experienced brick
layers we have paid as high as IS
cents an hour.
I'VE have been notified that here
after the minimum scale will be 60
cents an hour and the best bricklay-
ers will demand even more. We do
not object to paying the good bricklay-
ers the high scale, but we do not pro-
pose to pay inexperienced men the
same wages as the Others"
