jays the Chronicle, returning home-
Ljlward on the Elgin train this morn-
Wing. He gives a good report on
te City and the country sur
rounding.
''The town of Wallowa is more
prosperous than ever before," says
Mr. McDaniel. "A creamery pro
ject is on foot and will shortly he
iWisiimnaatfd. The capital stock
for the enterprise has been sul
scribed by local residents. All the
(preliminaries will be completed
miran a snort time."
There is an active 'movement in
real estate in Wallowa county.
The sales by McDaniePs firm have
imounted to $15,000 in the past
thirty days. All tho good farming
land in the Wallowa valleys can
lie supplied with irrigation from
the abundance of water which the
tjpure mountain streams of that

.easily porvicte a certain means of
crop production and may sleep at
(anight with little heed as to weather
conditions. These splendid advan
tages will pile increasing value up-
Ion the farm lands of Wallowa as
the demand grows. There is iust
now a great rush for timber lands
in that country, and the influx of
claimants has added to loca1 activ
ity and bufiness. Another nrom-
jinent commercial element is the
fcsales of the season's wool clip which
Shas been much larger and higher
rapriced than in any previous season,
ffl Crops of all kinds are in the fin
est condition, and the outrange for
dock is better than has been known
for years at this particular season.
These are some of the progressive
'conditions that are making Wal
lowa prosperous, and the people
contented and happy.
A City of Bad Repute.
Patterson, N. J., has given evi
dence k'fore of being the nursery
of socialism, anarchism and vari-
Uws isms fatal to peace and cood
order and the events of the past
week have added to its notriety in
this respect. All day Wednesday
the city was in the hands of a
mob. Mills were wrecked and a
number of persons shot, two of
whom will die. It is known that
the riot was the result of the
efforts of anarchists and followers
of the red flag. Agents of these
circles have been busy for some
time stirring up trouble between
capital and labor even in mills
where there have been no difficul
ties or dissatisfaction. It is evi-
jdent that Paterson needs a tho
rough renovating and if need be
such an example taught the law
less element as was given some of
their kind in Chicago a few years
ago after the Haymarket riots.

Death of a Noted Tree.
New York Sun.
Old-time habitues of City Hull and
its park saw with regret the old but
tonwood tree on the walk just east of
the City Hall being stripped of it
branches, preliminary to being cut
down. Park workman under the di
rection of Gardner William Laughlin
sawed off tho tree's limbs, and be
night only the bare trnr.k was left.
Nobody knows the exact age of the
old tree, which has guarded for so
many years the basement entrance to
the building, seeing Tammuuy and rc
tonn go in and out. Gardner Laugh
lin says it is one of the trees in tin'
old common, and he believes it is at
least 175 years old.
Mayors of all kinds and jmlitical
stripes it has seen, from Tory ones to
Tammany ones. Towering above tho
building wiib its upper brnnehescx
tending over the chamber now occu
pied by the Board of Aldermen, its

of tbeo'.d Knickerbocker fatherland

of Southern Oregon fame, was com
lelleil to throw down fences around
thousands of acres of Government
land he had fenced up, it is said ul!
Eastern Oregon stockmen who have
thus illeginlly put up wires around
public range are to lx compelled to
throw them down. A. It. Green, a
special tiovi'innuMit agent, is now in
Harney county insiiecting the big
stock ranches with the intention of
rigidly enforcing the Supremo Court
decision in the Curr easy. The re
sults of what Mr. Greene has found so
far are not known. When Harney
county is inspected, it is said, Grant
is to follow, and that possibly all
the Eastern Oregon sections where
big cattle ranches prevail are to be
gone over. This feature exists in
Harney and Malheur more than any
