Continued next week.) FALLS CITY. Laat Saturday, In company with Hon. J. Myera, of Sclo, the editor of this )aiier visited Falls City and spent the night. The fourteen mile ride waa made In about three hour although a shorter and better road could be built to reduce the time to two hour. The cooling breeze of the mountains, the restful green of the hill and the hbspl liable treatment received by our boat, Frank Duller and hi estimable wife tended to tnjhienoe u favorably to wards tho embryo city. In the evening there was a meeting at the school house of the Fall City Union, which wa organized July 12th, with the following officers: J, M. Parry, president; A. M. Bryant, vice president; J. C. McFarlano, recording secretary; C. A, Sawtcll, corresponding secretary; O. V. Griggs, treasurer. There were some twenty five present and after the meeting opened the speeches were full of Interest and in struction, The object of the association I lo gather together the resource aud advantage of Fall City and present them before the public, but more than all they want a railroad. Mr. Butler testified to the fine timber there. Mr. Illingsworth said a quarry of excellent building stone wa there lu tnoxhauat aide quantities. Other spoke of the water power, fruit culture, etc. lu re- spouse to an Invltatlou Hon, J. Myers addressed the meeting oommeudlug the energy and enterprise shown. A com mittee wa appointed to ollcltfuud and see county court about a graded wagon road from the bridge to Starr blacksmith shop. Fall City ha a great many resource and In that vicinity one I surprised at the increase In population during the past yenr. The saw nilll.the three store of Griggs A MoFarlane, Colter, Wan key and Hallowed hotel, aud several residences comprise the present town, but it ha all the advantage for making a town that Dallaa haa, our county seat. One unfortunate thing which we wish tho Independence and MontwHith reader to note la that all that trade gia to Dallas, and the Increase of trail from that quarter ia what ORuae Dalla to grow. A wagon road tralglit through would give the Monmouth and inucpemienee nicn-liant ihara, A wagon road ghoulti l ptialied turough. OoTrTOrAlT.

Yet there are further bill pro poavd, and cUmoroualy urged by eu alon agent, which would take out of the treasury About f2,H00,0U0,Uou more. The Tribune think it time to nay that thi I going too far. The measure of proper expenditure for thi purpose haa been reached, if indeed It ba not bee u passed already. There la no active demand, on tlie part of the velerau of the I'nlon, for exceeding those already appropriated, And thoae veteran are enalble enough to know that appro priation exceeding half the entire revenue of the government, to the benefit of aiuall fraction of the people, might quickly cause the collapse of the whole system for lack of popular ap proval aud upsirt. While any part of thoae who saved the nation from de struction were subject to want, or their widow, children, or uclploa parent, there wa an honorable feellug that they ihoultl be remembered by a power ful and proaperoui people, even though in the attempt to do ao avenues aliould unavoidably be oaned for extensive fraud. But the people will certain ly top somewhere, and then, If Appro priation for thi object aeem to them excessive or frauds too numerous, there may be a flat refusal to continue the Appropriation already made.

Further appropriations for pensions can not be asked without imperilling the con tinuance of all grant for that object. MARRIED. BOOTHBY MOOFORD. At the real deuce of D. M.
