The directors of the Ilillsboro school
will not elect teachers for the ensuing
year until a week from next Friday. So
far we understand there are but few
applications before tlie board.
Considerable interest is felt here in
" the coming celebration at McMinnville,
July 4th. Fred. Ilambleton is entered

that day. Also, one or two horses from
this county are entered in the running
race.
The work of printing the Washing

more service.

A ninii living in this county, who
owes over two years subscription, put
his paper back in the post-otlice marked
''refu.ed." We have heard of many
mean nun ; one who used the wart on
the back of his neck for a collar button;
the one that pictured a goat on his
grandmothers grave; the one who stole
coppers from dead nigger's eyes; the
one who got rich by giving his rive
children a nickle apiece to if to bed
without supper nnd then stealing the
Dickies after the children were asleep
but for pure down-right cussedness the
man. who takes a paper two years, marks
it "refused" and then sticks it back in

department last week says the Marsh
field News, that his claim for bounty,
which accrued in 1801, was nllowed.
He enlisted as a private under Lincoln's
first call or 73,000 troops. Afterwards
he was promoted for "gallantry in the
field," and the department ruled that
promotion forfeited his claim for bounty
as a private; but now he's got his claim
awarded. y

--A fellow has been victimizing people
up the valley with a new swindling
scheme. He carries around a handsome
plush-covered workbox, with which he
works his little scheme. II solicits
orders for boxes like the sample he
fchows and otlers to supply them at such
a low figure that nearly everybody orders
one. Ea h person ordering is required
to deposit AO' cents when the name is
taken down, merely as an evidence of
good faith. The swindler however is not
working in good faith and never comes
around with the loxes. It is said that
he reaped a harvest of four-bit pieces in
ltosehurg. It is to be hoped that some
swindled community may get hold of
the fellow and make an example of him.

Our Cattle Interests.
The last three years have been marked
by low prices for cattle, and the ranch
owners of the far West and the stock
feeders of Missouri, Illinois, Kansas,
anil Texas are now complaining that
there is no longer any profit in the busi
ness. Indeed, except in cases where it
is favored by special conditions, it is
attended by positive loss. It seems to
be the impression that the combination
of dealers nnd packers in Chicago has
brought this state of things about, and
that all the profits of th cattle business
are now monoiolied by this combina
tion, which makes loth the buying price
for cattle nnd the selling price for beef.
This may be part of the explanation of
low prices, btit it is not the whole of it.
There is another agency at work, and it
is ;00O miles off. The development of
a large cattle trade between the Ar
gentine Republic of South America and
the markets of Europe in the last few
years is one of the features of that re
public's amazing progress, and it bodes
no good to our stock-breeding interests.
When American cattle are shipped
abroad they are shipped to be sold in
open market for what they will bring,
and there they encounter Argentine
cattle, which arc raised at a smaller
cost. In plain words, we cannot rom
pete with that republic iu raising sheep
and cattle, and under the present sym
pathetic relations between distant coun
tries, the low prices that prevail there
are having an effect here. The British
have lines of swift steamers ply'ng be
tween their ports and Buenos Ayres, and
as they have the privilege which we have
uot, of buying what they want in the
chcacst market, they have legun to
im port Argentine leef and mutton in
place of American. St. Louis Repub

of eleven churches, comprising 1315
members, and were represented by
seventy-five delegates. They report
about $12,000 expended in their -work
during the year just closed. Theincp-ease
has been gratifying in many directions.

tie work of the American Baptist Pub

emphasis was laid on the necessity for
tlie circulation of pure clean, healthy
literature for the masses.
The Pacific Bapt 1st. now leing pub
lished semi-monthly by llev.S. P. Davis,

I resent editor and proprietor, who im
mediately began its semi-monthly isuc.
Now a strong effort is being made to
enable him to make it an tight page five

these efforts indicate clearly that such a
lappy result is to be reached nnd the
itfort undertaken by next January.

missions was presented by Deacon W. B.
Rev. George W. Hill, of East Portland.
An address to the report was made by
Rev. A. Le Roy, of Astoria, who is one

A 'vlct Murdered.
Wm. Mansfield, a convict in the Oregon
pcnitcntiaiy at Salem, was bhot and
killed last Saturday morning by John
Whitley, one of the guards. Muntfield
refused to work, coinplaiuing of being
unwell, and retired to the steward's
quarters in company with a guard. W.
W. Saunders, a trustee nnd stew ard in
the penitentiary, said Mansfield wras not
sick and advised him to go back to work.
Mansfield swore he was sick nnd that he
would not work and they could not make
him work. The guard undertook to
place handcuff on him but could not do
ro as Mansfield kept out of his tench
The guard having him in charge calletl
to Whitley to bring a gun and lei it bear
on linn. I his was done. Jtlansiicid tola
him to shoot and be g d , and con
tinned to keep out of reach of the man
who was trying to get handcuffs on him
At last Whitley was told tothoot, which
he did, the bull striking in the abdomen
and killing the convict almost instantly.
A coroner's jury was summoned, and a
verdict of justifiable- homicide was
rendered. A knife was found in the
sleeve of the dead man, but he did not
attempt to ut e it neither did he exhibit
it during the quarrel prior to murder

eotne disordered, and tha whole system
to suffer from debility. In all such
cases Ayer's Pills give prompt relief.
Alter much suffering trom Liver and
Stomach troubles, I have finally been
cured by taking Ayer's Cathartic Pills.
I always find them prompt and thorough
in their action, and their occasional tout
keeps me in a perfectly healthy condi
tion. Kalph rtmuu, Annajiolis, MJ.
Twenty-five yearango I suffered f rom
a torpid liver, which was restored to
healthy action by taking Ayer's Pills.
Since that tima I have never been with
out them. They regulate the boweU,
aait digestion, and increase the app.
tite, more surely than any other medi
cine. Paul Churchill, Haverhill, Mui,
INVIGORATED.
I know of no remedy equal to Ayer's
Pills for Stomach ami Liver disorders.
I suffered from a Torpid Liver, and Iys
pepsia, for eighteen months. My kin
was yellow, and my tongue coated, i
had no appetite, suffered from Head
ache, was pal and emaciated. A few
boxes of Ayer's Pills, taken iu moderate
doeea, restored me to lierfect health.
Waldo Miles, Oberliu, Ohio.
Ayer's Pills are a superior family
medicine. They strengthen and Invig
orate the digestive organs, create an ap
petite, and remove the borritile dcpren
ion and despondency resulting from
Liver Complaint. I have used theae
Pills in my family, for years, and they
never fail to give entire satisfaction.
