Our pleasant weather was interrupted ... i . . .... w . i luis wees oy a uuiier in nnow nu nru- nesday, but now the storm is over, and the small amount of snow left to whiten the hills is rapidly disappearing before the bright morning sun. A sarcastic Union county man adver tises as follows: "I have 40 to 50 thou sand pounds of choice No. 1 apples for sale, all of which were grown on my orchard, notwithstanding it. as well as mv nursery, was totally killed last win ter." A prominent feature upon our ciowded street yesterday, says the Seattle Her ald, was a man si feet, six inches high, and built in proportion. ' The reporter learned that his name was Ateiuusou, Bnd that he came from Umatilla county, Oregon, where he has two sons the same height He was apparently about GO . tenxs of ftge, bnt hale and hearty. flour Fifrure s. The distribution of the profits on flour in Boston are as follows: Of the value of 100 barrels, $300 goes to the Dakota farmer for the grain; the through freight to Boston will give the railroads $l'J7. 50; for grinding ?50 will go to the miller; the cooper Will reoeive $-15 fof the bar rels; and commission and cartage w ill add S30 more to the cost, making the total cost of the hundred barrels of flour and adds 8210 worth of oven heat and yeast and,?2u0 worth of labor, so that when the flour "goes into the shop for sale in the shape of 3,000 loaves of bread it has cost $1,0.12.50 an equiva lent of 3J. cens a pound. For this bread the' baker 'or retail dealer gets 7 cents a pound; that is to say, the baker and tfrocer in Boston get approximately about one-half of the money paid for a barrel of flour, the farmer gets a tilth, the railroad one-inth, and the reineinder is distributed -between, the miller, the merchant and the cooi er. . , , Land Frauds. Commissioner McFarland, of the gen eral land office, being interviewed on the subject of land frauds, said: "Tb prin cipal operators are persons largely en gaged in the tiinber business, the' "set tler" beihg a convenient myth. ' A class is organized to secure timber lands in California, Ofoeon, Nevada and Wash ington territory. That clans discloses aJ combination of largo capitalists, En glish as well as American, to obtain title to immense tracts of timber lands by ob taining men, women and children to swear to false affidavits that they hSVe made entries, as required by law, for their own use and benefit, and not for speculation. The prices regularly paid for sets of false entry papers range, ac cording to report, from $50 to $100. The government gets $2.5!) aiP acre for land perhaps worth ten times its cost to spec ulators. . Itunnlntc a Print-Shop. A local pajer to be run at all, must re ceive sufficient first-class patronage. First -class patronage consists in every subscriber paying his sub scription in advance, patronizing the job department instead of sending the work to foreign offices, and in various ways giving the paper your moral support. Taking and reading it, and not paying for it, will never do. Moral support of itself was never known to run news papers; moral support cannot be utilized w hen ink and paper bills are to bb pr.id. The men who work U)xn newspapers nre human, and enjoy their grub as well as other people. The atmosphere may con tain a large amount of ozone and be very bracing, the scenery very grand and pic turesque, but nevertheless it seems to be one of nature's laws that one can't pay for printing material with ozone. Wedding. At the city residence of James Jones, in Heppner, last Tuesday evening, Miss Minnie Kimsie and Mr. Richard L. Hall wore united in marriage, the ceremony being performed by A. Mallory, Esq. The bride was tastefully attired in a neat costume, uud the groom bore up bravely under the usually embarrassing formal ities of such occasions. The house was comfortably tilled with friends and neighbors, and a sumptuous supper was served. Several hour were pleasantly pawHt'd iu dancing uud sooinl converse, and all heartily jointid in wishing Dick and his young wife a happy future. At Ki:. A correspondent of the Weston Leader writes from Ella as follows: Fine weather good plowing lotsof churches oud dancing hoapn of fun. Considers ble building goi Wk mva4i unSie r wit Castle Rock is worth $20. shingles $4.50, and plenty to be had. Cedar posts are wortli $lo a hundred. Many of the farmer are hauling freight from Castle Rock to Heppuer. Our postmaster has sold his claim to D.' R. Jayne, for $000, and is now putting" fip another house on his railroad claim. Mure Minery. Hon. J. I Mtu-row, W. B. Cnning ham and Frank Gilliam left for FwUle ton Wednesday morning. The everlast ing circuit court buxiiiesj takes them again away from their comfortable homes and stints them off in a disagree able snow storm for a tedious sixty-mile ride to Umatilla's far-off county seat. If any man thinks this county hadn't ought 1 3 be divided, let him put himself in the place of these gentlemen. , . Found Dead. The body of a man named Boyle was found last Saturday iu the grass near the road leading from Sand Hollow to Butter creek. Me left .butter creek over s mouth ago and started towards Heppner, as he said, to take charge of a baud of sheep, since which time nothing has been heard of him, and from the condi tion of the remains, it is supposed that he has been deal most of that time.
