Will Put on a Fast Train. The Southern Pacific Company Bias decided to meet all comers in i open fight for passenger busi ness between San Francisco and Portland. The Chronicle of Oc tober 15th, has this: "On Monday next, the Shasta limited, the first train under a new service especially designed for diverting from the O. K. & N. Co's steamers, will start on it's initial trip to the Oregon me tropolis, and will be followed by a similar train every rive days. A .special tariff schedule has been pre pared for this train. The through ihrst class rate, including Pullman raccommodatations, will be $20; the second class rate will be $10, in cluding a berth in a second class sleeper. 'The Shasta limited will in no vase interfere with the present Ore gon express service. It will only make the trip on steamer days, and the rates announced for it will not good on other trains. It will be the fastest regular train ever run from here to Portland, making the regular trip in 24 hours, as against the time of 3S hours made by the evening express. Circumstantial Evidence at Fault. In the states prison at Stillwater, "Minnesota, is published a news paper, called the Prison Mirror. It is edited and published by inmates of the prison. In it is found the .following: "The injustice of courts is exem plified in the case of Andrew Hudge path, who was murdered by due process of law at Harrison, Ark., about two years ago. Prejudice And perjury secured his conviction, atnd Hudgepath was swung from the gallows into eternity protesting 3us innocence to the last ; and that le was innocent was established be yond doubt later on by the return of the man supposed to have been murdered. It would seem that the law which had unjustly taken this man's life had a duty to preform to liis family. His widow is now liv ing in an old tent bv the roadside a I few miles from Wagoner, I. T., where she is struggling to eke out a jiiiserable existence for herself and children among strangers and re viving no- assistance from those who were instrumental in depriving ier and her children of their naiuralt protector. As the children growj up in poverty and ignorance and j hear the storv of their father's death irom the lips of their mother, will they not harbor thoughts ot ven geance and set the law at defiance?"' Circumstantial evidence hung Hudgepath. and it hung an innocent ; man. For the protection of man-j "kind it i.s necessary that the courts j depend upon circumstantial e vi- i Jence, aud while they may have j -erred in some cases they are but few j compared with those which circum- j stantial evidence has justly cjn-j victed and punished. Come to School. Thetv are a number of persons in j Medfoivl above the firat jirade who should lie in attendance but for some reason are not. ' The school accommodations are not iu i pleasant as theywill be later, but there j is room for all and good woek is be ing done by those attending. Valuable time is bviog lost by those who are out, j and when ihey enter they may not be Able to -ir the work of the grade to which they formerly belonged and so fall bihind. Teachers will be pleased to have the patrons of the school visit their rorxas any day.

Mr. Miller came into this section, says theKerhv I'nion, last May and l located on Soldier Creek where hei saw gnl oiuartz indications. He i lifll ii:if l.--n thrp Inner 'fill b ' struck this big fjuartz find which he . calls the Denver City. The entire dimensions of the ledge as it appears on the surface, is sevei-ty feet wide and from '2f0 to 300 feet long. About fourteen feet of this, that is, a fourteen feet vein we might call it, lying in this im mense fodv of quartz is very rich, ieing free milling ore. Then there a strip from two to two and one lalf feet wide that is Utterly full of gold. Tbi6 is a3 rich quartz as I ver evr, in fact it could not be any better ualess it was solid gold. I lave sjecimens at this office which are nearly all gold and they were not taken out of the best specimens -either. I also saw specimens as large as hen's eggsjwhich seemed to be nearly all gold. Mr. Miller has not pronpected it down any depth but from all indications it runs far dowa into the heart of the moun tain. There is enough already in aight to make him a rich man. Other locations have been made im mediately tributary to Mr. Miller's Denver Citv. The Shell Exploded. P. S. Enyart met with quite a pecul iar accident Monday afternoon which resulted in his having his left hand quite badly injured. He was in the act of removing the caps from a lot of shotgun shells, and came to one which had been snapped, but did not explode. In some way the shot had been taken out and Mr. Kn yart did not notice that the powder and wad still remained in the shell. No sooner did he apply the cap extract or than there was a loud explosion, and at he was holding the shell in his lijft hand the powder tore the flesh off the inside of his hand in a fearful man ner. Physicians were called and dressed the injured member and the patient is geting along quite nicely. No am putation will be necessary and he will have the use ot his hand as good as ever.

Miller has u model of a bicy cle track which he is confident if put into use would be of great benefit to the bicycling fraturnity. The traek is five feet wide, and is built on a frame which is eight feet high and sets on top of the ground. A railing is also built on each side of the traek to pre vent cyclists from running off. The track can be built for six dollars per hundred feet, including material, labor and everything. The merits which Mr. Miller claims for it are that cycl ists can attain a high rate of speed on it without danger of collission or great fatigue, and that it ciin be traveled as well in the wot season as in the dry. The track is to be built with an Cftab lished grade and will be ruWd high enough at countv roads to pass over there ,: ; HEW TO TM& LINE Let the Chips Fall Where they Hay. As an individual member of Ihe peo ple's iarty. and ;w a citieu in common with my fellows of Jackson county. I take this my first opportunity to de nounce the late act of our county clerk in voting with our county judge to re duce the just railroad assessment, made by our efficient and honest nsoor, (ieo. A. Jackson. This in 'am nous act comes to me like a clap of thunder from a clear sky. for I confided in "XuU;"' with that "trust that binds brother to brother. X. A. Jacob? has. as mi official, trampc'.ed upon the fundamental prin ciple of the Kirty that trust-d and elected him. and therefore, he cannot longer feel that he is a servant of that party which has ever proclaimed "equal rights to all and special privileges to none," railroads not excepted. Hretli rvn. let us stand for our just principle and denounce corruption whether in or out of our party. Sam'i. Paniki.sox. W. C. T. U. Called Convention.

On Wednesday of last week I had business that called ine to Taylor's saw mill, on the head of Dry creek. I went the route that I traveled twelve years ago and what a change 1 Then I could ride any where I wanted to, unices, hin dered by the thickets of the chapar ral and oak grubs, but I had not proceeded far before I discovered I was lost, so far as roads were that concerned. The whole country had changed and instead of riding through an unsettled tract of country I found myself surrounded by some of as fine farms as one could desire to see and the stubble fields and large barns showed con clusively that the land whs pro ductive, and the corn and squashes made me think of the rich bottom lands around Medford. I met quite a number of men and women, for I had to enquire the way, and as usual, I spoke of The Mail and found that they had no use for an agent in that part of the country, f.r fhey all read the pajier every week, nnd three different persons to whom I introduced myself re marked that they knew me, for they read my writing every week in The Medfuri) Mail. Well, after opening nineteen gates and passing through a continuous string of farms and orchards, looking at a number of lots of fine hogs. I reached the saw mill at noon. The mill is the property of W. V. Taylor, but has been leased by R. Mi. Barker. Thev are turning out a fine lot of I lumber and still complain they can not supply the demand, and the most of it goes to Medford. Re turning in the afternoon I passed along the south and west side of Roxy Ann, where I used to ride at pleasure. I found that the country had changed and where, a few years ago. the coyote ran undisturbed, now there are fine farms and or chards, and I thought to myself that at the present rate of clearing CALL ON" WILSON, THE BAKER For the Choicest Lines of Cream Candies i Hand made tally and creams j While buying your bread of!
