AN AWFUL DEATH.
The Bodij of Mrs. Suzanne Tooski
Consumed in a Burning
Dwelling.
While Indian Jim Tooski was down
town Monday, his dwelliug on the bluff
opposite the falls caught on fire from
some .unknown cause, and the body of
Suzanne, his aged wife, was almost con
sumed in the cruel flames. She was
lying in bod in the upper story blind and
feeble, and was thus unable to help her
self. No one was present when the fire
started, and its origin is a mystery.
When the flames died away nothing but
the charred bones of Suzanne remained.
She was the only siuviving daughter of
Chief YelciiH, the chief of the Molallas,
and her half brother, Henry elcus.the
only surviving sou of the once famous
chief, places her age at 75. Suzanne
was born in Clackamas county, almost
before the Hudson Bay Company estab
lished their posts here. Once she was a
belle of the tribe, and the chiefs of other
tribes cast the trophies of the chase at
her feet. Coroner Strickland made an
examination, but decided that an in
quest was unnecessary, as death was
due to a fire, which started from some
untnown cause. Indian Jim came
down in the evening and asked for a
blanket from Jmlge Ryan. Tooski es
timate8 his loss of contents in the dwell
ing at about $700, including five $20 gold
pieces.
Among the articles lost were keep
sakes, the property of Jim's former wife,
whois said to have killled by some one,
The building alio Is considerable of a
loss, it being a two-story affair, and was
erected by Tooski on property belonging
iu major, i nomas unarman. i ne Darn
was saved.

i! IS THE BOARD AFRAID OF
PORTER
The Enterprise is considerably worked up because the
Courier-Herald has agreed to do the county printing and
furnish stationery so that the county will' save about $1500
a year. The Courier-Herald also agrees to furnish bond in
twice the sum of its bid for the faithful performance of the
contract. What more can, the board ask? Still they want some
. excuse for giving it to Porter; thereby putting party before
principle and the taxpayer. The Porter organ says we did
not fulfill our last contract with the board. Who was to
blame if we did not, the board paid and allowed the bills
and if the county got worst of the deal it was the fault of
the board? But we defy Porter or board to prove wherein
we "did" the county, and we can show contract which the
county board did not live up to, but rather than make
trouble and expense for county we let the board have its own
way. We saved the county over $12000 while we had con
tract, but as soon as the present board took the reins of
county government it gave the job to Porter at a "reasonable
price," averaging 50 per cent above prices paid us. Will the
taxpayers continue to b humbugged?
