InmoBArrs Coiiura -West. Ths
Borthern Paciflo general passenger
office reports that a largr number of
people are leaving the Pakotaa snd
are coming West. Thsso people are
moving in squads of forty or more, and
are mostly ssttling in Washington on
ths lands newly irrigated. There
seems to have been extra inducements
-offered tbem by tbe landowners, and
.tbey are availing themsslvee of tbe op
portunity to leave the drouth and cy-.clone-stricken
sections of Dakota to
settle in the land of promise. It is
alio stated that scattering numbers of

Nnw Law Fihm. Id another column
will be found tbe card of Allen k
Oleelon, lawyers. Mr. Msrrison Alien,
who hsa been vary suocssstully practic
ing law hars for the past six months,
and Representative T. J. uieeton nave
formed a partnership for the practice
oi their proiestion, and are established
with oommodious quarters in the Tay
lor building. Mr, Uleeton is too well
known In Columbia county to need
an eulogy at our hands, only to say bs
is a sare and shrewd business man
Mr. Allen's praotloe sinoe be esms
nere speaks lor itself. We do oot oon
tend that these gentlemen are the
most able lawyers in ths land or
that they hava or will bavs a corner
on the legal bosinsss of Columbia
county, but wo believe any business
entrusted to them win be In safe, con
servstivo hands. With Dillard 4 Cole
in ths field, this county has two strong
legal teams.
Hot AT Fbbsext. Oorvsllis Times:
"Several newspapers announce sagely
that Bonner Hammond are about
ready to begin building the Oregon
Paciflo into Eastern Oregon, md t
branch to Eugene. Bonner aV Ham
mond may, in time, do both, but so
Ions as ths appeal ponds, tbey will do
neither, and It is idiotio to assert that
lliey will do anything else until after
the appeal is settled. Bonner k Ham
mood would turn op a pair of peni
tent and beautifully plucked business
msn should thsy spend money on tbe
Oregon Paciflo and then see a su
preme court dsclsioo send tbe prop
erty back Into Judge Fullerton's court,
and back to tbe gang who have wal
lowed tha poor old property into the
quagmires of debt for lb, these many
years."
Fat or ths- Bills. In tbs bouse
of representatives during the recent
session of the legislature there were
884 bills introduced. Of these 141
pssssd that body, and 121 died either
in failure to pass, by indefinite post
ponement, by being tabled or being
withdrawn. Of tbe 142 that went to
the senate only forty-two passed that
body, an even hundred going to sleep
In tha bosom of pig-headed prejudice.
Tbe senate passed 110 of its own bills
of whioh forty-nine were passed by tbe
bouse, twenty-three died in the bsnds
of the various committees and thirty
eight were disposed of in tbe various
ways of indefinite postponement and
want of passage. Thus altogether
ninety-one bille psesed both bouses
snd eighty-ssvsn bscsma laws, but
thsy are principally charter bills.

Notice to Boheol Boards.
BoArrooss, Or., March 12, 1805.
A report has gained credenoe in some
parts of tha county that tbe available school
fund for 189) would be short, and several
school district boards are postponing the
usual spring term of school in consequence.
This is an error and ahould not affect the
regular spring school. Tbe April appor
tionment of county money will take plaoe
as ususl, and will be as large as common,
however. The August apportionment of
state funds msy not be equal to the past,
yet the two funds will be ample for a reas
onable term ot school. Very Respectfully,
J. G. Witts,
County Sobool Superintendent.
