THE PASSING SHOW.
Oregon Journal.)

(0regon Journal)
One OF the revelations of the Land
Products show is the Tokay grape
product OF southern Oregon.
In color and flavor California can
not equal it. In size, the California
Tokay slightly excels, but southern
Oregon will remedy this defect as its
vines grow older. The lusciousness
of the Josephine county Tokay is the
marvel Of all.
Strangely enough, though Port
land has this year consumed sixty
carloads OF Tokay grapes, but three
came from southern Oregon, two
from Josephine and one from Jack
son. The other fifty-seven cars were
California Tokays. The overwhelm-
ing sale Of the California product is
said to be due TO the better organiza-
tion OF the California sales agencies,
defect that Josephine county will
undertake to remove next year.
The very excellent display OF Jose
phine Tokays at the Land Products
show has already done much to her.
aid the advantages and wonders Of
Oregon grapes.
There are many fields in which the
passing products show has rendered
high service TO Oregon Industries.

AN EPIDEMIC
 IF INSOMNIA
Residents of the Third Ward Trace It to the Clamorous Machinery of the llassavampa Cream cry Company

The turbulent clamorous and riotous company's new gas engIne was on trial before Judge Mcbride of the city court yesterday morning The complaint against it was lodged by r. X. Joslyn on behalf of himself and other neigh bors of the third ward who said that for the last two weeks insomnia had be- come an epidemic in all that neighbor- hood. They soid that they could stand fl in day time; they rather liked it; it dispolled the notion that exists in Tue son and some other places than Phoe nix is a dead town. But it was in the stiffness of the night that the exhaust became offensive. Citizens half asleep imagined that they were in the theater of the European war and each exhaust seemed to be the explosion of a f2 c.m. shell. The exhaust conveyed all the horrors of the world conflict and none of the glories of battle.
 There was a cloud of witnesses against the exhaust and at the end of the hearing. Judge Mcbride announced that he would reserve his decision until today. He wanted 10 hear the exhaust himself. From what he had heard of il it was better than a picture show
 He returned fully impressed. Stand ing in the street near the creamery he remarked to a companion. there seems e be something going on there also pointing to the warehouse of the Wake lin Grocer company behind him; and there too." rointng toward another building. All the cNhaUsts in the world seemed to have been collected in that rei=hborhood- There was n concert of them. go symphony But the judge was told that there was only one. the one in the creamery: the rest were only it's children its rcverheratiors. It was wonderful. admirable. he replied.
 What his judgment win be was not indicated but it is expected that there will be some sort of an amicabIe ar fanGement under the provisions of which the neighhors or the exhaust may be given sleep Electrician Dodge said tnat he could fix the exhaust SD that its murmurings might be mistaken for tho ticking of watch and it would not be an IngersoH watch either.
 r has not been the purpose of the creamery company to disturb the nciehhors. The gas engine was in stalled in tho way of an experiment. to displacc soft coal burning contriv- ance against which the neighbors though not within such a wide radius bad been making complaint
