Constabulary Called Out

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Feb. 26.-
A detachment of the state con-
stabulary arrived here today for
duty at the plant of the Bethlehem
Steel company. The constabulary
was called after the strikers had
prevented workmen from entering
the plant yesterday.
7 The feeling of the strikers
against the company is bitter and
the arrival of the constabulary
served to add fuel to their hatred.

A remarkable sale of Oregon fruit

Voorhies, Of Portland, sold the prop
erty to G. M. Speck and associates,
OF Spokane. The orchard has

each year from its large acreage of
apples and pears. It is said a por-.

divided and sold in small tracts
by the new owners.

HILL ROADS WILL
ADVERTISE OREGON
CAR OF OUR PRODUCTS TO BE
EXHIBITED THROUGHOUT
THE EAST.

Portland, March 1.-Oregon is to
get wide publicity throughout the
East during the coming year if the
plan of Louis w. Hill, president of
the Great Northern railway, works
out. Mr.. Hill proposes to gather
exhibits of what Oregon raises and
place them in al exhibit car which
will be sent East and routed through
the sections of the country where
it will do the most good. That these
exhibits will accomplish great deal,
accompanied as they will be by a
lecturer, is certain and that many
thousands of settlers will be brought
to this state as a direct result is
believed.
An actual demonstration of what
this state can produce in fruits,
grains, grasses, vegetables, etc., will
unquestionably prove convincing to
the easterner. Attractive literature
will accompany the exhibit car, tell
ing of opportunities here for the
HON eseeker, and the lecturer will
answer questions about this state.
President Hill asks support for his
plan from Oregon people in the
gathering of exhibits with which to
equip the car. His company now
has representatives in this state
collecting information to be used

waged by Mr.. Hill.

Biggest Overflow
In Sixteen Years
Melting Snow Of Prairie Creek
Comes Down In Great
Flood.

The biggest flood since 1894
swept down Prairie creek and on
down the river Tuesday and Tues
day night. The rain and warm wind
of the preceding night melted the
snow that lay a foot deep all over
the Prairie Creek country, and with
the streams pouring out Of all the
passes and off the hills that sur
round that big basin made a vast
quantity of water that the narrow
banks of the creek could not con-
tain. The overflow spread over the
low lands, bridges were swept from
cheir foundations and considerable
damage was done to fences, roads,
etc.
The lower parts of town were
flooded and a number of families
compelled to move out. River street
was overflowed from the rink south
past the Steel property, the torrent
rushing knee deep over the road.
Depot street was impossible and a
number of houses in that part of
town were surrounded by water.
The flood reached it's highest at 9
o'clock Tuesday night and by We'd
nesday morning all danger of further
damage was at an end. The con-
tinued warm weather is taking the
rest of the snow but the overflows
are not SO high.
Several narrow escapes of persons
attempting to drive along over
flowed roads were reported, but no
accidents happened except the mis-
hap to Marshal Hug. While attempt
ing to save some water pipe being
swept across River street near the
rink he lost his smoke pipe and
got his feet wet. The bystanders
thought the city ought to pay for
another pipe as 1t was lost in line
Of duty, but agreed that the feet
wetting did more good than harm.
Railroad Traffic Tied Up.
Land slides In the Grande Ronde
canyon below Elgin blocked railroad
traffic On the branch Monday. The
two trains came as close together
as possible and exchanged mail and
passengers. Tuesday three lisdes
in the Wallowa canyon near Minam
prevented the train going further
than Wallowa, whence 1t returned
ito Joseph. Wednesday it came only
to Enterprise. The engine went q
few miles below town and returned
with the report that bents Of two
bridges near the Sam Wade place
are washed out and about 100 feet
of track gone.
A steam shovel Is working on
the slide in the cut below Elgin,
but as the wires are down Agent
Butner cannot give any idea when

Mr.. Stumbaugh's place is three
miles below the bridge. He wintered
5000 sheep without hay and says they
came through in fine shape, with only
the loss of 10 ewes and SO lambs or
about the average per cent, and they
principally from coyotes.
The report of losses of cattle have
been exaggerated. The best posted
men down on the river are placing the
average loss at not over 10 per cent,
practically all from sliding. Ofcourse
some owners have lost a great deal
more, while many have lost less.
