the outlining of the plan for the

the direction of forming one govern

RUNAWAY TEAM
CAUSED EXCITEMENT

A team hitched to city cab, car
rying several people, became fright
ened this afternoon about 1890,
and, getting beyond the control of
their driver, ran at break-neck speed
from the top of the hill near the
South Commercial street church down
to Mission street before they could
be pulled up. South Salem residents
stood on the curbs with bated breath
Witnessing the mad gallop, and
thought every minute something
would occur that would result disas-
trously, but the driver showed his
horsemanship, and mastered the run
away horses, and pulled them up to
a walk after several blocks had been
run. No damage was done to either
the rig or its occupants. although
the people We're badly frightened.

from all indications throughout both
the valley and the United States in
general, the crimp in the market will
continue indefinitely @ ,ff
Due to the wheat market becoming
uneasy, the flour market is also show
ing a tendency to soar. At whole
sale prices valley flour is being put
up to the consumer in Salem at from
S5.40 to $3.50. 1t was generally be-
lieved few weeks prior to this fur
ry that -four would be down to a
lower basis before long, but the mar
ket has gone up instead Of downward
and there is great probability of the
staff of life coming still dearer.
Milk, beef, pork, and, in fact, all
granted products consumed by Sa-
lem people, will undoubtedly take q
jump in the market after the first OF
| the year. Mill feed is up to high
| price and is holding firm. Bran Is
selling at $2S per ton and shorts is
| going at $40 per ton, while oats
very seldom calling for a price over
! 40 cents, are quoted now at so cents
per bushel. High-priced feed renders
stock feeding high-priced, hence tht
high values on products.

This fight that certain parties

of Police Gibson today, "is nothing
more than a job; job from the very
first. Some of my political opposi-
tion friends are doing this, They
fought me during election, and have
been framing up ever since with diff
ferent things.

and examine every blessed thing in

anyone, and am at loss to under
stand why these people are busying
themselves with my business, and
that of others, when there is no ne

fore, that my old political enemies
are framing up another far-fetched
job.
However, will submit to a thor
.ough Investigation, and will give all
the assistance l can toward arriving
at a conclusion whether or not the
charges contained in the complaint
are true"

that no improvements are contem-
